How can I comfort you? How else can I excuse it
Putting aside one's own moral standpoint, it is simply unwise to comfort the emperor and even excuse the second prince at this time!
If those people think that they have something to do with the second prince, wouldn't they make themselves feel uncomfortable!
After simple consideration, His Majesty the Emperor decided not to conceal the truth of this matter!
The royal family, simply remove this fig leaf!
Firstly, there is no way to hide it, and secondly, if this kind of thing is still covered up, it will really be hard for conscience.
…
In the previous three days of killings, those killers with mysterious origins had already killed most of Chenhuang Kingdom.
These people moved surreptitiously, moved quickly, and went high and low; it took a day and a night for a galloping horse to complete the distance, and these people even arrived in less than half a day.
When you get there, start killing!
You don't even need to recover stamina!
Together with the first day, in five days and four nights, the number of people killed by these mysterious killers has exceeded 100,000! Among them, there are officials, royal relatives, nobles, and civilians. Most of the people belonging to Wanyan Baihualou in various places are civilians. At least their official household registration records are like this...
This kind of crazy killing is almost against the trend of the sky, but it makes the emperor of a country unable to say anything: arrest? Why do you have the face to arrest people? What qualifications do you have to arrest people
Your own son committed so many heinous and heinous crimes, why didn't you catch him
Even today, have you dealt with it
Others are doing things that you have never known and could not do, yet you want to arrest them
Are people in the royal family so thick-skinned?
In addition, the government has made great efforts to collect information during this period of time, and the statistics of more than 80 Wanyan Baihua Buildings across the country have been integrated...
His Majesty the Emperor ordered all the officials of the entire household department to collect and integrate them in a unified manner. Although it was a full-scale action, it took a whole day and one night to completely sort out the existing information.
Now, Hubu Shangshu was panting with a blushing face, and bowed his head in silence.
If it weren't for the fact that the mastermind of the crime was the emperor's own son, the Minister of the Household Department would have already yelled at him by now, calling him down for the eighteenth generation of his ancestors!
What kind of brute is this, only the bastards can do such a thing!
"Wang Aiqing, you haven't told me the final verification result yet." His Majesty's voice came.
"Qi Zuo Your Majesty!" Wang Shangshu's tone was very firm: "In the past ten years, Wanyan Baihualou has opened 85 brothels in the Ming Dynasty of Emperor Chen; 33 brothels in the dark ecstasy; One place, nine places in the Blue Wind Empire... a total of one hundred and thirty-eight places!"
"In the past ten years, there are only records...the number of women killed... 1.27 million!" At this point, Wang Shangshu's voice suddenly became passionate: "1.27 million... young girls! One hundred Two hundred and seventy thousand souls are missing!"
The old man yelled so harshly on the Golden Luan Hall.
Old tears!
His Majesty the Emperor closed his eyes sadly, his face full of shame.
"Even, these are just numbers on the surface, those given to dignitaries..." Wang Shangshu's old eyes gleamed, and he glanced at the faces of the ministers in the court one by one: "I don't know how many..."
All the ministers sighed and sighed, but there were only two of them whose eyes seemed to be averted.
Although the two of them did not collude with the second prince, they had accepted the beauties presented by the second prince, and until now... they are still kept at home...
Wang Shangshu's awe-inspiring gaze really stayed on the faces of these two people for a moment: "My lords, what do you two think?"
Heartbroken, the two of them rushed out of work and knelt down, kowtowing vigorously: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I deserve death for my crimes..."
His Majesty the Emperor stared at the two men with loathing and even loathing eyes, and looked at the two ministers who he had praised many times for their outstanding abilities, and said coldly: "Since you admit your crime and deserve death, then, as you said Wish, drag it out and execute Ling Chi!"
"Confiscate the family, punish the nine clans!"
As soon as His Majesty said a word, the two ministers immediately softened like a puddle of mud.
The palace guards came like wolves and tigers, grabbed the two without any explanation, and dragged them out of the hall like a dead dog; the two kept begging for mercy, and were dragged to the gate of the hall, finally completely desperate.
One of them suddenly shouted loudly: "Zhu Jiu Clan! What a Zhu Jiu Clan! Dare I ask His Majesty the Emperor, is it really an unforgivable crime if we only took a woman and didn't kill her? If you judge this, you will kill me. When Ling Chi is put to death and punishes our nine clans, then what will you do with your own son who has committed such heinous crimes?"
"The so-called prince breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people! Based on the actions of the second prince, should the nine families of the second prince be exterminated, should the graves of the eighteen generations of his ancestors be dug? Your own son is devoid of conscience. Don't you, as a father, have no responsibility for such a deed? Even if you killed all the ministers in the court, can you deny that this rare scandal in the world was not written by the royal family? ?”
"Hahaha... Zhu Jiu Clan! Your words are really sweet. I know that I have committed a serious crime, so I will go to wait under the Jiuquan first, and see how your own Jiu Clan, His Majesty the Emperor, is punished! Can you really let the world People are convinced!"
These two people knew that they were bound to die at this moment, and there was no luck; before they died, they became bold and unscrupulous.
Naturally, he said everything that could be said but could not be said, what should be said and what should not be said!
It is true, but as far as the actions of these two people are concerned, not to mention the main culprit and the accomplices, I am afraid that the two who do not report the knowledge are not counted. The beauties they received from the second prince are nothing more than a custom in the officialdom, and, After storage, it was also pampered and never abused at all. I don't even know where these two women came from...
If it weren't for the different situation now, and the emperor was angry, and let the two of them vent their anger, in terms of their crimes, at most they would be reprimanded or even fined for a year and a half. Zizi rose to the height of Ling Chi's execution and even the execution of the nine clans!
The Golden Palace fell into an unprecedented silence.
The muscles on His Majesty's face twitched.
The look in the eyes, depression, dullness, anger, guilt, self-blame...
The angry shouts of the two ministers before they died still echoed in his ears; it was like sharp needles piercing into his heart!
Does it make sense
Doesn't it make sense
But... What can I do
His Majesty the Emperor has five flavors in his heart, not to mention. Finally he let out a long sigh: "Bring these two people back, they will be dismissed from office for half a year, and they will take on official duties. After half a year, we will see the effect."
There was a heavy look in his eyes: "That's right, after all, it was my son who committed such a heinous mistake, and it was my fault to vent his anger on others for no reason."
