Reborn you are not worthy

Chapter 67 The Emperor and His Family

However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the voice of the young emperor sounded again.

"In order to prove fairness, now, I order you and others to go to the top of the city tower immediately, and read all the 310 seven articles in their hands neatly, so that the subjects can share the rewards, and the officials in the court and the scholars from all over the world will jointly judge it. What is the ranking?"

As soon as this remark came out, the room was full of silence.

"Your Majesty..." Zhu Qun and the others suddenly changed their expressions and their voices trembled.

Lu Bingxing turned a blind eye to the lack, "Xuan Luoji led Jin Yiwei to personally supervise, and you are not allowed to miss a single word during the recitation process, and you are not allowed to be inconsistent or stop randomly."

"Otherwise, it will not only cause misunderstanding and misjudgment to the listeners, but also be ashamed of half a lifetime of knowledge. I order that if you make a mistake once, you will be punished, and everyone will read it again until it is completely correct, so as to ensure absolute fairness and justice. .”

This……

This is recited in front of the people of the city, and they will be flogged. What kind of insult is this to the officials and the family behind them?

Is it even more embarrassing than the previous "court battle punishment"?

In the previous dynasty, the ministers who offended the emperor would directly open court battles, that is, outside the court, the father-in-law of the ceremonial supervisor would be imprisoned, and the royal guards would carry out the punishment, and the ministers would take off their pants in public, expose their buttocks, and beat them with sticks. The flesh and blood are bloody, and the serious ones will be disabled, and what's more, they may be killed by the stick.

The more important role of the court battle is to kill the morale of the ministers and deprive everyone of their self-esteem.

In the end, these proud scholar-bureaucrats, under the double pain of sex and consciousness, all became obedient, and everyone became a dog, a horse, and a sheep!

Therefore, except for the former dynasty, I have never heard of such a punishment for humiliating scholar-bureaucrats.

Now, what is the difference between His Majesty's actions?

Even in the previous dynasty, the scholar-bureaucrats only needed to look ugly in front of their colleagues, but now they want to be in front of those untouchables?

"Your Majesty, I have made a mistake, Your Majesty, please forgive me..."

The few people headed by Zhu Qun no longer had any arrogance, and they knelt on the ground and wept uncontrollably.

If they were really allowed to do such a shameful thing, what face would they have to survive in this world?

The other officials, seeing these big men crying so sadly, could only tremble in their hearts, and dared not feel any sympathy.

At first glance, His Majesty's move sounds reasonable, but when it is actually carried out, it is so sinister and cunning.

If they dared to make even the slightest mistake, they might be picked up as a piggyback. Who knows how many tricky ideas His Majesty has in his head...

"Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty..."

The cries and cries of those people became farther and farther away until they could not be heard at all.

Lu Bingxing watched coldly.

After that, the court was as quiet as if there was no one there.

"If you have something to play, you will retreat if there is nothing."

Until Sun Youquan's protracted voice sounded.The courtiers suddenly realized.

One of them came out immediately, "Your Majesty, I have this report."

"speak."

Afterwards, several people came out one after another, all talking about trivial matters in their own hands.

While listening, Lu Bingxing was thinking about other matters. Among the six ministries, only the Ministry of Officials and the Secretary of the Ministry of War belonged to aristocratic families. Now that they are all abolished, all the six ministries will be taken down.

After this incident, those aristocratic families are afraid that everyone will be in danger, and the time for rebellion will be advanced.

The precious daughter-in-law mentioned that recently, the Shu family had arranged a nail in the palace, who came to him every day to inquire about Zhen's whereabouts.

Such eagerness to wait shows that those aristocratic families have a high probability of colluding with King Wu, otherwise King Wu himself would not have the power to rebel.

In his previous life, King Wu had been dormant for three years, and he still dared to take advantage of the chaotic waters while the Queen Mother was cleaning up the family. Unfortunately, before he even started, he was reported by Shu Chengxi.

An enemy's enemy is a friend, and in this life they have been mixed together.

The aristocratic family is for the sake of being famous, and the King of Wu is for the powerful allies.

Hmph, Lu Bingxing raised the corner of his mouth, that's great, it would be even better if he could catch everything in one go.

About military power.

At present, the leaders of the Forbidden Army, big and small, are either from aristocratic families or are the children of officials, so they are potentially dangerous.

But in the palace, there are only him and the queen mother, the genius will not be threatened at all, as long as Yang Peng protects the queen mother well, everything will be fine.

Furthermore, when Marquis Zhenyuan returns, the [-] troops stationed in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing can also move.

And the most important nine admirals commanded five infantry battalions, about 3 people, all capable and well-equipped.

What used to be the Empress Dowager's man is now his man.

In short, I am not afraid that they will not rebel, but I am afraid that they will be too late...

……

After coming down to court, Lu Bingxing had a simple breakfast and left the palace again.

This time he went alone, lying lazily on the roof opposite the city gate, surrounded by a tall big willow tree for shade, occasionally the spring breeze blew by, and he felt so refreshed beyond words.

On the city tower not far away, the daughter-in-law uttered a red flying fish suit, her expression was cold, like a spring color suddenly appearing in a world of ice and snow, it was very beautiful.

In addition, there are a few annoying ghosts who are reading hoarsely, and from time to time, the cold-faced Jin Yiwei behind him "slaps..." on the shoulder.

Lu Bingxing realized that, among them, his precious daughter-in-law was the most serious.

He curled his lips slightly, this bad guy has some private goods, so go back tonight and reward him well.

Gathered under the city tower, more and more people watched the excitement.

In order to prevent thieves and bandits from taking the opportunity to cause chaos, the admiral of Jiumen asked his subordinates to bring nearly a hundred people to maintain order with swords and shields.

Some clever hawkers directly brought their stalls to the gate of the city to sell some tea and snacks.

Many scholars even lifted their desks and benches over, sat down on the spot, and commented on articles in small groups.

After all, every year when the palace examination ends, the articles of these Jinshi will be sealed up.

It is a rare opportunity for them to see so many outstanding student articles at one time, and they have benefited a lot this time, which will be very helpful for their future reference.

More than 300 articles, each with at least [-] words, several people recite together, but if one person can't keep up, or reads wrong words, they will be beaten again.

These people have been pampered and respected since they were young, how could they have suffered such hardships, Jin Yiwei's strikes were ruthless, and the bamboo slices hit them, which hurt their hearts, so the rhythm became even more chaotic.

The sun climbed into the sky, and they hadn't finished reading.

And everyone's back was covered in blood.

It was time for Jin Yiwei to change shifts, and it was time to eat and rest.

"His Majesty……"

Shu Chengxi looked at the person who fell in front of him, his expression brightened.

"Aifei was so majestic just now, Zhu Qun was instantly sluggish from the beating."

In the beginning, Zhu Qun wanted to drink water, to sit on a stool, to get beaten when he misread a word, and to lose his temper with Jin Yiwei, thinking that they dare not really provoke him.

As a result, Shu Chengxi was in front of everyone, as long as he opened his mouth to say something irrelevant, he would be whipped once, until he was so obedient, he looked at Shu Chengxi as if he was his own father.

"His Majesty……"

Shu Chengxi's face turned pale immediately, he knew what he looked like when he was in Jinyiwei?

The subordinates hardly even dared to speak to him, so how could His Majesty see him who was so bloody and brutal?

Will His Majesty stop loving him?

Lu Bingxing raised his eyebrows?

What's wrong, I'm wronged...

With the appearance of my daughter-in-law, is she acting like a baby with him?

Be coquettish, be coquettish, it must be coquettish.

Lu Bingxing coughed, patted his head lightly, and said in a cold voice on purpose,

"Did you hit someone just now, and your hands are tired from beating, why are you so stupid, I will pinch you with true energy."

After finishing speaking, Lu Bingxing took his arm as if no one else was there.

Shu Chengxi: "..."

Well, His Majesty is not very human, he should have known it earlier, and he shouldn't infer it with common sense.

Seeing that the precious daughter-in-law was still not happy, Lu Bingxing frowned slightly,

"What do you want, I can try my best to satisfy you, but it's over here, don't be arrogant anymore."

Shu Chengxi shook his head, pursed his lips and laughed, and couldn't help reaching out to hold his beloved His Majesty.

How could there be such a beautiful person in this world?

Was the suffering he suffered in the past few decades the price he paid for meeting His Majesty?

Looking at him with this look again, Lu Bingxing frowned, but his heart moved shamefully.

Heart is worse than action.

He hugged the person in his arms and flew to the nearby big tree.

In spring, the trees are densely covered with leaves.

Besides the kingfisher perched on a branch, who can see the lingering love of a lover?

……

Some people are happily in love, while others are going crazy with anger.

All the heads of aristocratic families gathered in Shu's house.

Each of them has a special identity, no matter where they appear, they are suspicious?

However, the Shu family had a good reputation in the current world, but their ability and power were extremely useless. Therefore, no matter whether the court or the people, they did not pay close attention to his family. Now that their family is cooperating with King Wu, the Shu family is safe. And convenient.

The head of the Shu family was trembling, it was the first time the family had so many guests.

The head of the Zhu family is the father of Zhu Qun, Minister of the Ministry of Officials. His expression is solemn, and his eyes are full of worries about his son who is still under torture.

"Everyone can also see clearly that the various practices of His Majesty up to now are completely unable to tolerate the existence of our family."

Chen Guanghe, who was deposed at home, was full of hatred in his eyes, "Your Majesty has only been in court for only two months, but he has already forced my niece to death and abolished the official positions of several descendants of the family. Today's actions are even more direct. Wait until the face of the aristocratic family is trampled on the ground."

Another person said, "My family has a good reputation for hundreds of years, but it has become a joke of those untouchables. The emperor's son is really arrogant."

"According to the arrogant nature of the emperor's child, I'm afraid there will be another time, and I will be killed directly. I'm gone, so what's the reputation?"

"We must not sit idly by."

At this moment, the bookshelf in the study creaked and was opened from behind.

A middle-aged man about 40 years old walked out of it, wearing a light-colored python robe, well maintained, with small eyes showing evil light.

Everyone looked at each other, and they all clasped their hands together and said, "I have seen His Royal Highness King Wu."

The King of Wu hurried forward, helped the leader of the Zhu clan, and smiled politely, "You are all polite."

"Why did Your Highness come to the capital?"

You must know that as a prince, Feizhao is not allowed to leave his fiefdom, especially when he comes to the capital, which is no different from rebellion.

King Wu coughed lightly, "My nephew has done all kinds of things to your family in the past few days. This king is very heartbroken. I heard that you are forced to ask for help from this king. This king naturally welcomes you and shows your sincerity. , so the king himself rushed over."

The Patriarchs looked at each other, they were stupid and poisonous, not to mention comparing with the first emperor, this is far worse than the current emperor's children.

Is it embarrassing to feel uncomfortable with the throne?

However, for them, stupidity is also a good thing. After getting rid of the emperor's son, help this guy to the top, and then immediately make it empty, it is enough to be a puppet.

The head of the Zhu family put a smile on his face, and pretended to flatter him, "My lord is wise, and all the families should respect you as the leader. Now that you have come, we have someone in charge on our side."

"Mr. Zhu is polite." King Wu nodded in satisfaction.

"I don't know, does the prince have any specific plans?"

Hearing this, King Wu coughed, and his face returned to normal, "I have heard about what happened today, the nephew is too much, even this king really can't stand it, just like what you said just now, you can't just sit and wait for death gone."

Everyone looked up at him in unison, wanting to hear how to act.

King Wu raised his hand and called the patriarch of the Shu family over, "As you all know, the emperor's nephew recently doted on Shu Jieyu alone, and even let her sit with her in the Qianqing Palace, and this Shu Jieyu happened to belong to the patriarch Shu. Dear niece, this king decided to ask him to do a little favor."

As he spoke, he took out a small porcelain bottle from his pocket.

All of you here are smart people, so they naturally understand what's inside?

but……

Some people wondered, "Since Shu Jieyu is so favored, she may not be able to be crowned empress in the future, and even give birth to a prince to inherit the country. Will she be willing to help me do such a thankless thing?"

"yes……"

King Wu glanced at Patriarch Shu.

Patriarch Shu smiled, and replied, "You all know that Shu Jieyu is the daughter of my concubine brother. My concubine brother left early, and Shu Jieyu and her mother and elder brother have been living in the mansion below. After more than ten years of getting along, I have a deep affection for my family."

Feelings are worthless in front of interests.

With this mere family affection, how could it be possible to persuade people from aristocratic families who are used to the changes in the world and the warmth and warmth of human relationships.

The Patriarch of the Yuan family cleared his throat, "Girls are extroverted, even if they really have a good relationship, it was a thing in the past. Now that she is in the palace, enjoying the emperor's favor and boundless wealth, can she still keep her original intentions unchanged?" ?”

The Patriarch of the Li family also picked up the conversation, "Yes, and Patriarch Shu, since your niece is so favored by His Majesty and has a deep relationship with you, then your prosperity, wealth, and bright future should be within your reach. Follow Wu Wang, we are also very curious about this."

"Yes, please tell the truth to Patriarch Shu. This is a matter of ransacking the family and exterminating the family. Empty talk is really unacceptable."

Patriarch Shu wanted to cry.

He actually regrets it too, okay?

The reason why he chose to send Shu Chengxi into the palace was because he thought that Murong Chen was just a puppet emperor under the empress dowager.

Even if Shu Chengxi can be kept by him and get his favor, it won't help.

After all, Murong Chen couldn't even control his own destiny, so what could he do to help Shu Chengxi, and the Shu family was well-known in the outside world, so without solid evidence, no one could easily touch the Shu family.

The only purpose of Shu Chengxi's entering the palace was to take advantage of his status to inquire about news and help him please the King of Wu. When the King of Wu came to rule the world in the future, he would present his own daughter as an offering, and Shu Chengxi could disappear.

But who would have known that not long after he sent Shu Chengxi into the palace, His Majesty took over the government himself, with great power in his hands, and a strong style.

Since that day, he has been trembling, unable to sleep day and night, afraid that one day Shu Chengxi will sue His Majesty and come to trouble him?

If he had known this before, he would have sent his own daughter to the palace, so he wouldn't have to get involved in the rebellion now. Wait for another two years, calmly, and maybe he can be the head of the country.

Where is the dilemma like now?

"Patriarch Shu, what do you say?"

Patriarch Shu quickly cupped his hands and said, "Don't misunderstand, Shu Jieyu has entered the palace, but her mother and elder brother are still here. They are orphans and widows, they have supported each other for so many years, and their relationship is extraordinary.

Moreover, my niece is naturally emotional, and she didn't want to enter the palace at the beginning, but in the end, she didn't compromise for their sake, so she decided not to do such heartless and ungrateful things.

Then, he looked at King Wu obsequiously, "As for me, I have known the prince since I was a child, and of course I am loyal to the prince, how could I be subdued by mere power."

How exaggerated and false is what he said?Everyone in the aristocratic family looked at each other at the same time, and couldn't help but rolled their eyes at each other.

However, when they looked at King Wu's affairs, they saw that he was smiling and very satisfied.

For a moment, they couldn't help but doubt, whether they themselves were too suspicious, should they believe Patriarch Shu's words?

"Everyone can rest assured that my Shu family's family style is well-known. The ancestors were so heroic in defending the city. How dare the descendants live up to their reputation and do things towards Qin Mu Chu.

Besides, I have had people contact with my niece several times before, and she has sent a lot of news, including His Majesty's habits and hobbies, work and rest time, etc., I have found someone to confirm, there is no problem . "

Patriarch Shu quickly added that he dare not expect anything from Murong Chen now.

I just thought that I would be relieved early in the morning, so I hurriedly hugged King Wu's thigh, and made a contribution before their aristocratic family performed.

After a moment of silence.

The head of the Zhu family cupped his hands and looked at King Wu, "I wonder if the lord is convinced of Patriarch Shu's words?"

King Wu nodded immediately, "Naturally, Shu Qing and this king have been friends since childhood, and this king has stayed in Wu these years, and Shu Qing has always been loyal to this king."

If so, then everyone has no opinion.

Anyway, the matter of poisoning came down to the fact that King Wu and the Shu family did it. Even if something happened, it was King Wu who was responsible and had nothing to do with their family.

When King Wu lost, they pretended they didn't know anything.

If they win, they will use their own power to help King Wu take the throne.

"I'll wait for the prince's order, and I hope the prince will succeed in no time."

How beautiful this uniform voice is!

Wu Wang narrowed his eyes with a smile, touched his mustache and sighed, he will hear it in the Golden Luan Hall soon.

That night, Lu Bingxing came back from Zangshu Pavilion.

I saw my precious daughter-in-law sitting at the desk, staring in a daze at a small porcelain bottle she had never seen before, which was obviously filled with medicine.

"Aifei is thinking about murdering her husband?" Lu Bingxing said casually.

Shu Chengxi was startled, and then really nodded.

"The Shu family sent it in for His Majesty's use."

Lu Bingxing raised his eyebrows, the procedure has come to this point.

He picked up the bottle and asked with great interest, "What symptoms will appear after using it?"

Shu Chengxi hurriedly grabbed it and put it back on the table.

This Majesty, really, is playing with everything in his hands. What if the bottle is broken and accidentally cuts his hand, what if the medicine happens to touch the wound, what if the medicine only smells the smell, and it will hurt?

Lu Bingxing frowned, the stupid daughter-in-law was concerned about him, although she was overly worried and looked down on him, but a genius would not be angry, Lu Tiancai is sensible, kind, and always aggressive.

Then, I saw that Shu Chengxi asked the palace man to bring a basin of warm water, grabbed his hands into the water, scrubbed him several times, and then took a cloth towel to help him dry the water.

Lu Tiancai felt very happy all of a sudden, His Majesty the Emperor said that the reward for his wife will be doubled tonight.

Moreover, the daughter-in-law's fingers are really soft.

After all the palace people withdrew, Shu Chengxi lightly reprimanded, "Your Majesty, don't make any fuss. This medicine is very powerful. The person who brought it said that if you take just one, your body will become weaker and weaker day by day, and you will slowly start coughing." blood, it’s like getting consumption, and then, after three months, you’re bound to die.”

How could Lu Bingxing listen to this now, he directly pulled her into his arms and kissed him hard.

It wasn't until Shu Chengxi's eyes turned red and he couldn't breathe that he slowly let him go.

I couldn't help but kissed his eyelid again, "I love you."

Shu Chengxi was deeply in love, dazzled for a moment, and then replied in a daze, "I love you too, Your Majesty."

Ah, no.

Let's go straight to the evening now, majestic genius, majestic emperor, why should you wrong yourself?

Lu Bingxing pushed away the things on the couch with one hand, and was about to start the battle.

Shu Chengxi was awakened by this movement, he fled away from Lu Bingxing's embrace in a hurry, and said eagerly,

"Your Majesty, wait a minute, we can't do it now, we have to get down to business first. The Shu family is so bold that they dared to directly assassinate the emperor today. What terrible plans are there in the future? Are you not worried at all?"

Lu Bingxing lowered his head, looking at the empty embrace, the genius was really angry.

The atmosphere and emotions are all brewing extremely well.

As a result, the beauty ran away.

Lu Tiancai—His Majesty Emperor Yongyuan, sat back on the chair in despair, leaned on his chin, and sighed, "Perhaps King Wu has sneaked into Beijing. There is no such poison in the palace. Where can the Shu family get it? The king of Wu got it from Nanzhao, and Nanzhao people are good at using poison."

Shu Chengxi frowned, "The vassal king sneaked into the capital, and if caught, it would be a death penalty. They acted like this, did they really prepare everything, and they planned to force the palace directly after the minister gave you the medicine?"

Lu Bingxing nodded, "As I expected, the aristocratic family should have given him a promise. Otherwise, depending on King Wu, even if I'm gone, this country will not be in his hands."

King Wu is the younger brother of the late emperor. When the late emperor was around, he stayed in the fief obediently, and he didn't dare to give a shit. More than ten years have passed, and things have changed. How can he have any status in the court?

As for the Shu family, they really can't make a fortune and have no future at all, so they are desperately grasping at straws like King Wu.

At this moment, Lu Bingxing found that his cheek was hurting, and the slender finger that he had just praised was pinching his cheek.

Genius was startled, and looked at his wife with admiration.

The dragon's face also dared to pull, eating the bear's heart and leopard's gall.

Shu Chengxi felt a little guilty from this look, lowered his head and coughed, "Your Majesty is not allowed to talk nonsense, Your Majesty's life is boundless, long live long live long live long live!"

Lu Bingxing was silent, and suddenly felt that he was miserable, being eaten to death by his stupid wife.

After hearing this, he didn't feel that the little old man was rude at all. He just wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss him till death.
