75. Chapter 75 Dispute [V]
Thinking of Liu Ting, he turned his head to where the civil servant was standing. When he turned his head, he saw Mr. Yu on the civil servant's side, and a clear thought flashed through his mind. Mr. Yu had also knelt down before and asked the emperor to take back the side of his life.
Apart from him, there were many people who knelt down. He couldn't kill everyone. He raised a cruel smile on his lips, "I'm not the only one who disrespects the holy order. Do you want to punish everyone?"
Ji Wu used to be a military general, and with this smile, he was filled with evil spirits that seemed to materialize. As soon as his words came out, all the people who had knelt down before could not help but shudder. They understood that although they would not all be punished, they would not be punished.
I will definitely pick out a few for execution. Now I am starting to regret why I have to be so troublesome, and I can’t help but pray that the emperor will not “take a fancy to” me at this time...
Xi Yan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "Master Ji, Master Ji, your move is really clever! It's a loss if one person dies, how many more people will be buried with you!"
Xiyan lowered her head as she spoke, "Well, let me think about it, maybe you won't die in this case, because you are sure that the emperor will not execute everyone. If he executes everyone, your family will definitely spread rumors that this beauty is a disaster.
It will cause harm to the country and the people. If you talk about the emperor's right and wrong, he will confuse and execute the ministers without distinguishing them as monsters. Therefore, I will be infamous for the rest of my life. Will the emperor lose the support of the people? It is a pity that you, the Minister of War, have such wisdom and do not go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. However, I see
You are a bit dissatisfied, or I want to get rid of you, what should I do?"
Ji Wu looked at her thinking hard with a confident face, convinced that she could not do anything to him. As she said, if Liu Ruyue was punished for what happened, he would not be the only one who died. Some people were panicked, and some people were worried.
When some people were gloating about their misfortune, Xi Yan suddenly smiled sinisterly at him. Ji Wu had a bad feeling in his heart, and frowned, wondering what else he had in her hands...
Xi Yan stared at Ji Wu with a smile on her face, but what she said made people feel as if they were in a cellar of ice, "If I want someone to die, of course I have a way. I will send a letter to Prince Jin Xi to tell me that it is.
I, the late Emperor Jin Xiguo, was harmed by you, so I asked him to bring troops to demand an explanation, and by the way, I asked Emperor Wanyan to come and administer justice. Lord Ji, do you think this method is good? Hmm... Occupy a few more cities, beat the people violently, and...
The people on the border are living in dire straits. The Emperor knew that you dared to harm their uncles and aunts. He originally wanted to kill all the nine tribes. However, seeing that you have worked hard for Dayue over the years, without any credit or hard work, he wanted to give you a lighter sentence, but because of the border war, you couldn't.
Without mercy, I ordered you to behead your hands. When I was satisfied, I ordered the regent to send troops back to Jinxi... Mr. Ji, when the time comes, which side will the people stand on? Will they do it for the country?
Do you want to seek justice for causing war and causing people to be displaced? Or should you praise the Emperor for his kindness and wisdom in sparing the lives of your family and only killing one person!"
"You!..." Ji Wu's old face turned red and he was angry with Xi Yan. The faces of other ministers who had previously opposed Liu Ruyue's entry into the palace were also pale and they were frightened...
"What's wrong with me?"
Xiyan said with a smile, "I am shameless? Or am I despicable? So what? If I were not smarter and crueler, would I have been forced to death by the emperor today because of your harem interfering in the government affairs?
