One thousand three hundred sixty-eight chapters: kill without mercy
Zhu Houzhao said that it was just a joke, and even seemed to be blaming himself, but everyone in the hall knew deeply that this was not just a joke, and that it was even more meaningful.
But they couldn't help feeling a little lucky. Finally, they hadn't reached the point of seeing blood. Outside this hall, there were many murderous figures.
Zhu Houzhao lost her temper like this for no reason, but no one knows where this temper comes from.
Just when everyone was frightened.
A trace of loneliness flashed across Zhu Houzhao's face. If someone felt the depth in his eyes with all his heart, he could even see such loneliness, perhaps because he had seen too many things, or because he had gradually grown up and finally saw too many bloody facts...
At this moment, he suddenly said, "Let's stop today's court discussion, let's go back."
The civil and military officials of the court looked at Zhu Houzhao who was above him in fear, and then looked at each other in front of each other. Finally, Li Dongyang made a quick decision and said, "I will leave."
Everyone had to bow down and said, "I will leave."
Zhu Houzhao's face looked a little pale. His eyes passed over the ministers and fell on Ye Chunqiu, saying, "Chunqiu, you stay."
Then, Zhu Houzhao's eyes slightly swept over Yang Shen, who felt glad and fearful, and saw Yang Shen get up quickly and hurriedly retreat with the abortion.
Zhu Houzhao remained still standing still. When everyone retreated, the guards outside came one after another. When the ministers left one after another, they did not disperse, and they were still bowing and waiting nervously.
Liu Jin quickly walked into the hall, hunched over, and stood beside Zhu Houzhao, while Ye Chunqiu stood in the hall, looking at Zhu Houzhao without saying a word.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at the painted beams and railings in the hall. After a while, he suddenly said: "I sometimes think..."
His speaking speed was very slow, while Liu Jin and Ye Chunqiu listened meticulously.
Zhu Houzhao continued: "Sometimes I think how difficult it is for the late emperor. In this world, there are so many opportunities and so many thieves and prostitutes. However, he is always not angry. He is extremely patient in the face of anyone. He always told me before that to treat others kindly, people will have faults. How can we erase everything from others because of other people's faults? He warned me to be strict with myself and be lenient with others. This is the way of the saint."
The more Zhu Houzhao said, the more he seemed to be in a state of dismay. Then he smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I actually want to be like him. Being such a person, I have been my role model since I was sensible. He gave me my body and hair, and gave me the country. He practiced it and taught me earnestly."
Speaking of this, Zhu Houzhao closed his eyes, showed pain, and said, "But I can't discipline myself strictly, so I can only do my best to be lenient with others. These... I originally thought I could do it, but until today, I realized how wise the late emperor was, because he could always consider others and always do what others could not do. Is the late emperor confused? He is not confused. He is like a candle in many things, but he is pretending to be confused. He is always so generous, but I... I want to be confused and unattainable."
At this moment, a trace of grimness suddenly flashed across Zhu Houzhao's face and said, "I can no longer ignore it, I can no longer be confused. Yang Shen, a corrupt official, who made him a role model for officials in the world? Who recommended him? Who agreed with him? Who?"
Zhu Houzhao's eyes suddenly fell on Liu Jin and said coldly: "Liu Jin, what should I do if you say, do I?"
Liu Jin hurriedly bowed and said, "I have reported to Your Majesty. It is not easy to punish Yang Shen's crime. He just praised him. If he offends him, then..."
"Then you don't have to know the crime." Zhu Houzhao smiled, with the domineering and determination as a king, and said, "Does I need to punish him before I can deal with him? There is no need to punish him. Tomorrow, don't let him see the sun."
Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao silently, and soon he understood what Zhu Houzhao meant.
Since Your Majesty doesn't want to see him again and cannot cure him for his crime, then... he can only kill him, and how to kill him is his business.
Ye Chunqiu, who was standing aside, naturally knew that Zhu Houzhao would definitely make this decision. When he asked Liu Jin to suppress Yang Shen's corruption, he had already made up his mind to kill.
If you just simply report Yang Shen’s corruption, for Yang Shen, at most, it would be just a dismissal.
However, Yang Shen's repeated provocations and repeated provocations completely made Ye Chunqiu feel murderous.
People are afraid of trouble, but the more you are afraid, the more trouble you will find. If you don’t want others to continue to cause trouble, then... you can only make this person completely incapable of causing trouble for you.
Yang Shen's background is indeed very good. Because he is so good, it is difficult to prevent him from recovering from death with ordinary punishment. Since Yang Shen insists on coming to cause trouble, it might as well solve him once and for all.
So Ye Chunqiu chose to operate secretly and get him commended by the court. This is easy to do. After all, Yang Shen is Yang Tinghe's son, and his reputation is also very good. Yang Tinghe is probably already in operation. Ye Chunqiu only needs to let his Lord Taishan not stop this matter, and this matter can come naturally.
Once Yang Shen is commended, Yang Shen's death will come.
When Yang Shen was still secretly searching for evidence from Ye Chunqiu, to some extent, in Ye Chunqiu's heart, there was no difference between this person and the dead.
So Ye Chunqiu didn't care about his impeachment, because no matter what he said, it was actually no longer important.
At this moment, Liu Jin couldn't help but look at Ye Chunqiu with admiration. He finally understood how vicious Ye Chunqiu's methods were. He was even a little lucky and felt that he was lucky. If Ye Chunqiu had used this cruelty on him when they made a grudge, he would have been dead and had no place to die.
Zhu Houzhao put his hands behind his back, showing a decisive look, and made a decision for Yang Shen's final outcome: "I will kill you without mercy, go."
Liu Jin fell to the ground and said, "I obey the order."
As he said that, Liu Jin left in a hurry.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the empty hall and finally sighed, then said to Ye Chunqiu: "Chunqiu, accompany me to the warm room to have a few sips of tea. We brothers have not spoken well for a long time."
Ye Chunqiu bowed and said, "Abide by the order."
