After all, Liu E failed to kill the Yushi doctor, nor did he kill the officials who came out to die with the Yushi doctor.
It's not that she couldn't do it, but the officials stopped her from doing this.
Ding Wei even shouted out in the hall, "Is the queen mother trying to exterminate herself from Shilin?"
Liu E, who was so embarrassed and angry, was awakened by Ding Wei's words.
She realized how stupid she was to kill Doctor Yu Shi.
If she killed Dr. Yushi with a rod today, someone would stop the court tomorrow.
In the future, her reputation will become inaudible among the people.
The word Demon Empress would also fall on her head steadily.
Maybe there will be a grass head king among the people, who will rebel and claim the king in the name of punishing her.
After all, it was not difficult to rebel in the Song Dynasty.
With a dozen people occupying a hill, they can rebel against the flag and give themselves a king by the way.
Liu E clenched his fists tightly, tried to restrain the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "The family is in a loss..."
Liu E can be regarded as softened.
She is a strong and accustomed person, it is unprecedented for her to be able to say this.
But Dr. Yu Shi and other officials did not let her go.
The Yushi doctor stepped forward and approached the imperial steps, shouting loudly: "The queen mother will either kill the old minister or ask her to cut her back. Only one of the old minister and the queen mother can stay in the Hanging Arch Hall."
The other supervisors followed the steps of the Yushi doctor, walked under the imperial order, and said loudly: "The ministers and others also mean the same."
Liu E was furious, but there was no expression on his face, and he sat in the chair without saying a word.
She cannot speak, nor can she speak.
Just now she prescribed oral softness, not only did not get the tolerance of the Yushi doctors and the superintendents, but instead made them threaten herself even more severely.
If she showed a little bit of weakness, Dr. Yushi and the supervisors would only push her nose to the face, forcing her even more.
Liu E did not speak.
Suddenly, there was a deadlock in the Suigong Hall.
Ding Wei, Cao Yili and others deliberately defended Liu E, but in the face of the undaunted spirit of the doctor and the superintendents, they could only avoid his edge.
Yushi doctors and superintendents, when confronted with Kou Zhun, will be counseled.
Because no matter how difficult they are, if it spreads to the people, they will be said to be infighting among officials and failing to win a good reputation.
But facing the royal family, facing the queen mother, facing the official family, they will not persuade them.
Not only will he not counsel, but he is also ready to go to justice generously at any time.
As long as they were executed in the face of the royal family, Liu E, and the admonitions of the officials, they would immediately become famous after the incident spread, and then become famous.
Those of them who are supervisors are asking for this.
Liu E, Doctor Yu Shi and the supervisors stared at each other like a bullfight.
Quietly in the hanging arch hall, the needles fall can be heard.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for Liu E to speak.
Liu E was reluctant to speak.
"Da da da… "
Suddenly, a hooves sounded outside the hall.
The hundreds of officials on the hanging arch hall simultaneously went to the outside of the hall.
Kou Zhun frowned and yelled: "Who dares to walk in the palace? Are you tired of life?"
As soon as the voice fell, an army pawn with a small flag on his body, a blade in armor and a three-sided badge hung around his waist, rode his horse to the front of the hall.
Under the gaze of hundreds of officials, he jumped off his horse, trot into the hall, and said anxiously: "Jiangzhe Jibao, Huainan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations, nearly eight states, have fallen into a food shortage. The people involved, Up to a million."
The soldier took off a sealed letter box from behind and raised his hands to his chest.
Manchu Wenwu was shocked when he heard this.
The food shortage is not terrible. What is terrible is the food shortage that has a wide range of implications.
A food shortage involving millions of people is a catastrophe. If it is not handled properly, someone will take the opportunity to cause chaos and rebellion.
"Hurry up!"
Kou Zhun realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately asked the eunuch to get the letter.
Li Di didn't care about waiting for the eunuch to walk up to the soldier with small steps. He took the lead, ran to the soldier, took the letterbox in his hand, and sent it to Kou Zhun with the letterbox.
After Li Di took the letter box from the soldier, the soldier tilted his head and fainted on the ground.
In order to convey the disaster of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang generation to the court in time, he has not rested for several days and nights.
Now that the letter box was handed over to the court, he relaxed and naturally fainted.
The Manchu civil and military were not surprised at this.
Soldiers who send urgent documents on weekdays are usually in this situation when they arrive at the court.
In order not to delay the political affairs of the court, most of them are desperately on their way.
Xiang Minzhong waved his hand to the guards outside the hall and said: "Help him down to rest, and the royal doctor will treat him well."
The guards outside the hall entered the hall, and the soldiers carrying the messenger came out of the hanging arch hall.
Li Di took the letterbox to Kou Zhun, and Kou Zhun checked the flame paint on the letterbox, and after confirming that no one had moved, he slowly opened the flame paint and took out the paperwork inside.
After Kou Zhun carefully read the contents of the document, his old face was covered with frost, his expression gloomy and terrible.
Without saying a word, he handed the paper to Li Di.
After reading it, Li Di looked horrified.
Seeing this, Xiang Minzhong and Ding Wei hurriedly moved forward, leaning close to Li Di, and stretched their heads to read the document.
After Xiang Minzhong read the essay in a glance, he exclaimed: "So serious?"
It is mentioned in the document that nearly eight prefectures of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Huainan have caused food shortages, and food prices in the eight prefectures have soared, far exceeding the food prices in Bianjing by several times.
The people can't afford food, they are all eating tree roots, gnawing bark, and eating Guanyin soil to satisfy their hunger.
What's more, it's easy to eat.
In the land of Huainan, some people rebelled with the banner of food shortages. In just seven days, they gathered more than 10,000 people and were looting large households in Huainan and other places.
After Xiang Minzhong and Ding Wei finished reading the document, it was quickly passed to the hands of Baiguan.
The officials did not care about etiquette, and gathered together to watch the documents.
After a while, the civil and military officials of the Manchu dynasty learned about the food shortage in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huainan and other places.
The document finally fell into the hands of Wang Zeng. Wang Zeng held the document and said in a deep voice: "The old minister had received reports from the Huainan and Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations about the food shortage, but it was not serious at that time. The annual harvest of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations found that the Huainan and Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations were not short of income this year, so they thought that profiteers took the opportunity to hoard some grain and grass, and wanted to take the opportunity to make a profit.
Now it seems that the veteran wants to be worse off.
The veteran is guilty, so the official should punish him. "
Kou Zhun said with a sullen face and waved his hand: "This matter has nothing to do with you. Before the grain shortage, there were always signs, either natural or man-made. But this time the generation of Huainan and Jiangsu and Zhejiang had a food shortage, but there was no sign. You don't check it for a while, either. excusable.
Moreover, farming is not your mastery, and you don't have to take responsibility for it. "
Xiang Minzhong frowned, and said solemnly: "There has always been a food shortage, either a natural disaster or a man-made disaster. The Huainan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations obviously did not have a shortage of income, but there must be a food shortage for no reason. There must be a reason behind it and it needs to be investigated carefully."
Kou Zhun nodded slowly and said, "You and Wang Zeng are responsible for investigating this matter. Once you find someone behind you, you will not forgive."
Ding Wei took advantage of this opportunity to help Liu E out of the siege.
He yelled at the Yushi doctors and the supervisors who were standing under the imperial steps: "Isn't going to retreat? Now is not the time to wait for you to make trouble."
Doctor Yu Shi looked up his neck and snorted coldly: "Whether it is? Why did I wait for it? First there was a frost disaster in Sichuan and Shu, and then the Huainan, Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations, and there was a food shortage for no reason. There must be evildoers in the dynasty to harm the country, and God is talented. Disaster came down again and again.
If the evildoers are not peaceful, the country will be unsafe, and the people will be unrest. "
The evildoer in the doctor's mouth was directed at Liu E.
Liu E shivered with anger, but he couldn't speak well.
Ding Wei said angrily: "National affairs are important!"
Doctor Yu Shi said with disdain: "Is it a national affair that evildoers do harm to the country?"
Ding Wei tossed his sleeves angrily and stepped aside.
Liu E gritted his teeth, staring at Kou Zhun, and said in a deep voice, "Is Taishi going to look at Ai's family in embarrassment?"
Kou Zhun frowned, his gaze fell on Doctor Yu Shi and others, "What do you want?"
The Yushi doctor arched his hands and said loudly: "Please eliminate the queen mother."
Kou Zhun nodded slowly, looked at Liu E, and said, "What does the Queen Mother want?"
Liu E said coldly: "The second position of the Ai family was appointed by the first emperor. How can you go if you want to."
Kou Zhun frowned and said nothing.
Liu E continued: "The reason why the first emperor allowed the Ai family to succeed, the Xu Ai family's chief regent, was to prevent someone from bullying our orphans and widows while the official family was young.
Now that the bones of the first emperor are not cold, you are persecuting the Aijia in this way. Are you worthy of the first emperor
Ai Jia today, if under your persecution, please eliminate the second position.
If you are not satisfied with the officialdom tomorrow, will you use the same method to force the officialdom to give up the throne
Therefore, whether you call the Ai family evildoer or the demon queen.
Ai Jia will not retreat even one step. "
When Manchu Civil and Martial Arts heard this, their expressions changed.
The faces of Dr. Yushi and others also became very ugly.
They did not expect that Liu E would move out of Zhao Zhen as a shield.
Forcing the official Zen to give up the throne, no one dared to take such a big hat off.
Doctor Yu Shi bit his scalp and said: "The old officials and others are loyal to the officials and have no different hearts."
Kou Zhun frowned, and said solemnly: "The Queen Mother is too serious. As Song ministers, the old man and others should do their best and be loyal to the officials."
Liu E said angrily: "Is your loyalty to the officials by what you are doing today?"
Kou Zhun reminded in a deep voice: "The empress dowager's words are too heavy, and the old officials and others can't bear it. If the queen mother feels that the old officials and the others are disinterested, even if he points out, the old officials and others must take off their official uniforms Official hat, hang on and leave."
Kou Zhun's voice fell, and the civil and military men of the Manchu dynasty said in unison: "The ministers and others seconded."
"Puff~"
Liu E slumped in the seat, his face pale.
Liu E wanted to point to Kou Zhun, point to Li Di, point to everyone who was against her, and shout.
You are all non-subordinates.
But she dare not.
If she really yelled like that.
The Manchu dynasty, civil and military will all walk away.
At that time, not to mention that she had lost her position. Even if she went to the door one by one to beg others to come back, she might not be able to invite all the Manchu civil and military forces back.
Good ministers choose the Lord and serve.
Not all officials, like Li Di, can reappear in the court when the court needs them, even if they are so disappointed in Zhao Heng and decided to go.
Xixia and Liao Kingdoms have always maintained a state of eagerness for the officials in the Great Song Dynasty.
Over the years, I have been extremely disappointed with Da Song, and many officials have betrayed Da Song.
Liu E was finally softened.
Under the approach of the hundreds of officials who almost forced the palace, the service was softened.
She was not a man, nor was she an official. She couldn't show the domineering style that an emperor could show.
There is no way to make the hundred officials willingly surrender to her feet.
Naturally, there is no way to deal with hundreds of officials ruthlessly.
"The Ai's family will not eliminate the back position. The Ai's family will keep the back position and protect the official family. The rest will follow you."
After Liu E said these words, she seemed to be exhausted. She waved her hand to Guo Huai, and with Guo Huai's support, she left the vertical arch hall in despair.
All the officials were left behind, looking at each other, not knowing how to deal with it.
Xiang Minzhong, Ding Wei, Li Di, Wang Qinruo and a group of important ministers suddenly fell on Kou Zhun.
Only Kou Zhun was the only one who was qualified to attack Liu E in civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty.
Doctor Yu Shi immediately said to Kou Zhun: "How to deal with the queen mother, please let the Taishi decide."
The power to deal with Liu E fell into Kou Zhun's hands, but Kou Zhun was hard to decide.
When the handling is heavy, others will definitely talk back and forth, saying that Kou Zhun is two-minded.
The handling was light, and the officials refused to agree.
Kou Zhun is also in a dilemma.
Kou Ji interjected intentionally, but found that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all looking at Kou Zhun, and he interjected now, which was a bit out of place.
Seeing Kou Zhun's anxious mouth twitching, Kou Ji's eyes rolled and his eyes fell on Zhao Zhen who was sitting on the dragon chair as a crowd eating melons.
In an instant, he had an idea.
Immediately, he stretched out his hand, touched his head, and patted his shoulder.
Zhao Zhen was naturally attracted by Kou Ji's weird behavior.
He saw Kou Ji touching his head and patting his shoulder again, with a dazed expression on his face.
Chen Lin also saw Kou Ji's weird behavior.
Chen Lin lowered her head and thought for a while, and understood Kou Ji's intentions.
Kou Ji patted Zhao Zhen's head for the first time and Zhao Zhen's shoulder for the first time, all in one place.
Chen Lin approached Zhao Zhen and said three words in a low voice.
Zhao Zhen blurted out, "Shishitang?!"
Kou Zhun's eyes lit up all at once.
He arched his hand at Zhao Zhen and said loudly: "The official's words are reasonable, and the veteran officials follow their orders."
Afterwards, with Zhao Zhen's ignorant face, Kou Zhun faced the hundred officials and said loudly: "The matter of the queen mother, the officials have been sacred. The official verbal order, with the empress dowager Liu E, withdraw from the hanging arch hall and sit in the office. Tang, I will exercise the power of regent in Shishitang from now on."
Under Zhao Zhen's reminder, Kou Zhun thought of this way to deal with Liu E, and then used Zhao Zhen's intention to announce it to the hundred officials.
Although this move did not oust Liu E's post, it did not even reduce the power in Liu E's hands.
But for Liu E, it was like returning to the pre-liberation overnight.
Back when Zhao Heng was still alive, back when Zhao Heng was sick on the couch.
