He is trying to make people drag this Confucian scholar down.More than a dozen ministers seemed to have found courage from the Confucian scholar. They got off their horses and went forward, knelt down and said, "Please Your Majesty, listen to the opinions of the people."

Habayashi Zhonglang paused his movements and stepped aside.All the officials looked at the car, Xie Yi closed her eyes, her heart sank heavily.

The door of the car was still closed, Liu Zao did not come out, she spoke, her voice was very steady and clear, and each word fell into everyone's ears: "Slandering the Emperor Kao in this life is a big treason. If the officials follow suit, The crime is the same as the treason."

As soon as the words fell, the anger on the faces of the ministers was replaced by hesitation.More than a dozen eunuchs stepped forward to help the kneeling minister.

For the crime of treason, the whole clan, the barbarians, and the three clans of Yi were punished. Even though they were angry, the ministers did not dare to speak out. They were all dragged up, and only a small official in his thirties was left, kneeling down.

Seeing that he couldn't help him, the eunuch bowed his head and retreated to the side. The Habayashi army stepped forward, captured him and the Confucian scholar, and dragged him down.

The person who blocked the driver took it down, and the holy driver continued to move forward, and finally let Liu Zao pay homage to his late father.

On the way back to Beijing, no one spoke, and the whole journey was silent.Xie Yi got into Liu Zao's car, Liu Zao closed his eyes, his mouth was tightly pursed, other people seemed to be sacred, but in Xie Yi's eyes, he was just stubborn and unconvinced.

She secretly sighed, and her heart that sank into the abyss floated up again, and she asked: "When I taught His Majesty to study, I once recommended a book to His Majesty, do you still remember it?"

Liu Zao opened his eyes, looked at Xie Yi, and replied, "Remember, "Tai Shi Gong Shu."

Xie Yi smiled, seemingly relieved, Liu Zao saw that she was smiling, and bent her lips accordingly, the corners of her tightly pursed mouth became soft and lively.When Xie Yi saw it, her heart felt unspeakably distressed, and she said, "There is a story in it, which tells about the events of Qin Er Shi."

Liu Zao's smile subsided in an instant, she knew what Xiang Xie was going to say, but she didn't interrupt, but lowered her head and listened to Xie Yi's words.

Xie Yi then continued slowly: "During Qin Er Shi, Zhao Gao wanted to cause chaos, but he was worried that the officials would not accept him, so he came to test him. He brought a deer and presented it to the second emperor, saying that it was a horse. Shi thought it was funny, and corrected him, the prime minister was wrong, why did he point to the deer and say it was a horse. Zhao Gao asked the people around him whether it was a deer or a horse. Some of the people around were silent, some said it was a horse, and some said it was a horse. , It’s a deer. Zhao Gao figured it out, and later framed those who said it was a deer. Since then, the ministers have been afraid of Zhao Gao.”

Liu Zao bit her lower lip and said, "Stop talking."

Xie Yi shook his head lightly, and continued: "Your Majesty, do you want to be Zhao Gao? Prince Wei is a deer thrown by His Majesty. To call the prince a sage is to agree with Zhao Gao and others. To say that the prince is wrong is to speak bluntly." Those who are deer. Will His Majesty continue to reuse those who call a deer a horse and exclude those who bluntly say they are a deer?"

At that time, the imperial court will really become the emperor's voice, no matter what she wants to do, no one will dare to object.

Liu Zao turned her head away, unwilling to look at Xie Yi again.

Chapter 99

There was silence in the car, as if the air was tense.Liu Zao turned to Xie Yi, obviously unwilling to accept advice.

Xie Yi knew what she was thinking, but he couldn't let her run amok. He still persuaded her: "Zhao Gao's tyrannical regime is cruel and brutal, he brought his own destruction, and the three clans were slaughtered. Qin Li II died, and Qin Qin was wiped out overnight. Your Majesty can't Repeat the same mistakes."

No matter how powerful the regime is, it cannot withstand the disintegration from the inside out, and a careless move will destroy the government and kill people.

Liu Zao closed his eyes, just pretending not to hear.

Xie Yi said again: "It's not too late to make up for it."

She pushed her step by step, disapproved of what she was doing, and asked her to give up and make concessions.Liu Zao felt helpless. After half a day, Fang found the courage to argue: "The changes are all in the court, and will not affect the local area. I am worthy of the world."

A forbearing look appeared on Xie Yi's face, and Liu Zao's heart tightened for a moment, but Xie Yi finally endured his anger and said patiently: "Your Majesty, ask yourself, is this statement credible? Push it to the prefectures and states. When the sycophants in the court and the middle are in power, the power of the local government will be effective, and after a long time, the world will only see evil spirits and not hear good people, how can the people not suffer?"

Liu Zao understood these words even if she didn't say them, but she still analyzed them carefully so that Liu Zao could no longer lie to her ears.Liu Zao's mind was filled with Xie Yi's forbearance just now.

Xie Xiang was disappointed in her?

Liu Zao suddenly panicked, she looked carefully at Xie Yi's face, Xie Yi's face showed no restraint, and she regained her usual calmness and sincerity of patiently persuading her.But the look of forbearance at that moment lingered in Liu Zao's heart.She could only cover it up with indifference, and said lightly: "I have already noticed it, so please don't say any more, Prime Minister."

As soon as she finished speaking, she quickly turned her face away, lest she see disappointment on Xie Yi's face.

Back in the palace, Liu Zao got off the car and walked away quickly.

The officials bowed to send them off respectfully, Xie Yi got out of the car, looked at Liu Zao's retreating back until Liu Zao's figure disappeared at the end of the palace gate, then turned around to comfort the officials.She opened her mouth to say a few words, and then she saw Ting Wei Li Wen looking at her, seeing her eye contact, Li Wen's eyes suddenly darkened, turned and walked away.

Liu Zao returned to the palace, and within a day, the persuasive memorials were presented to the Xuan room like a thunderstorm.The memorials bluntly stated that the emperor's behavior was inappropriate, and there was even some criticism of Prince Wei.

Ever since she issued an imperial edict to discuss her posthumous title, this kind of memorial has never been broken, as if they would not show their spines that would rather not bend if they did not say a few bad words.

Liu Zao was just trying to find out.The ministers didn't need her to say much, so they discussed that cruelty should be the posthumous posthumous title.She was actually quite satisfied.There are no more and no less characters, which just fits the life of the prince.By acting like this, the ministers are willing to cover up her father's faults on her behalf, which shows that she has a deep foundation in the court.

So far everything went smoothly, until she saw the more than ten letters denouncing the prince's faults.In the letter, he denied all the wise achievements of the prince when he was alive, and slandered him as "playing power and inviting people to buy people's hearts".

Liu Zao just flew into a rage.

The crown prince died early, and Liu Zao had never even met him face to face, so there was no relationship between father and daughter, so he would not be too angry.The reason why she was so angry was because they were able to accuse the prince like this today, and when she issued an imperial edict, they would criticize the prime minister with words and pens.

Xie Xiang's previous deliberations and sleepless nights will turn into ulterior motives.Just denying Prime Minister Xie's administration may not be the end, the world's malice towards women definitely does not stop there.They will put all the obscene words on Xie Xiang, and regard her as a Daji and cast aside her.

She couldn't sleep all night thinking about it.After thinking for two days, he dismissed the posthumous title and asked the ministers to discuss again to see where their bottom line is.

As a result, the ministers formed a front line to fight against her.

Liu Zao suddenly understood that she couldn't be Mingjun.

Mingjun can distinguish right from wrong, accept advice with an open mind, and can accommodate many loyal ministers who are upright and outspoken.She couldn't bear it, and she couldn't hear someone saying thank you was a bad word.

Mingjun is praised by people and admired by all people, and his reputation cannot be discredited.She can tolerate it, and on that day, she would rather the ministers say she is useless and scold her as a fatuous tyrant than let Xiang Xie suffer any grievances.

Liu Zao figured it out, so he took this opportunity to sweep up the court, leaving the obedient ones and belittling the tough ones. After a few years, when she established the queen smoothly, she would come to clean up the government.She is still young, as long as she has been with her for 20 years, she will be able to restore the government and make it clear.

Thank you for disagreeing.

Hu Ao entered the palace holding a new memorial, and carefully presented it: "Your Majesty."

There was still panic on his face, Liu Zao knew what was written in the memorial at a glance, she casually pointed to the corner, where there were rolls of bamboo slips piled up higher than a person.

Hu Ao bowed and sent the memorial to him.

Liu Zao asked, "Can your wife wait for you at home?"

Hu Ao hurriedly piled up the bamboo slips, turned around, faced Liu Zao, and replied respectfully, "My wife is always at home."

His wife was originally Gong'e, but was later taken away by Prime Minister Xie. Later, Xiang Xie gave him a house and returned Gong'e to him. They chose an auspicious day and simply got married.

Liu Zao noticed that there was a hole in the corner of his clothes, but now it has been carefully mended with needle and thread. Such a thoughtful work must be done by his wife.

Liu Zao raised his hand, and gently covered the sachet at his waist. This sachet was sewn for her by Xie Xiang.

Liu Zao felt the softness of the sachet in the palm of his hand, and asked again: "You are in the palace every day, and you rarely go home, isn't she lonely?"

Hu Ao replied: "The minister's wife and the minister have grown up together since they were young. After the minister became a prisoner, so did she. The two families were friends, and the marriage contract was made as soon as it was established. , After several years of hearing nothing, they separated. When His Majesty ascended the throne, and the minister followed His Majesty back to Weiyang Palace, Fang Zai accidentally ran into her. Both the minister and the minister’s wife have not changed their original intentions. After so many years, the strong wind and làng After the passage, we have not been dispersed. She is at home, and the adjudicator will definitely go back, and the admiral is in the palace, knowing that she will be waiting, even if we are not together, our hearts are always connected."
