I did evil in the feudal land, but I was called a virtuous king

"Where the rules are not, isn't it all up to you, Father?"

The old emperor pondered for a moment, and then replied affirmatively: "No, the queen must go back to the palace with me. If you are worried about the queen, can you go back to the palace with me?"

Li An looked into the eyes of the old emperor and sighed: "Father, do you still want to use your mother? Do you have to use her to coerce your son?"

The old emperor was startled, and with a bang, he slammed the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard, causing a crack to appear on the chess pieces.

Chapter 256 Putting pressure on you, abolishing the king

The movement here attracted the attention of Empress Qi and the others, and Empress Qi looked towards this side suspiciously.

The old emperor turned his back to Empress Qi, so Empress Qi couldn't see the expression of the old emperor clearly. Li An smiled and waved to Empress Qi to reassure her.

"Li An, do you know what you are talking about?" The old emperor's eyes were cold, and anger was rising in his eyes.

"Is my son wrong?" Li An met the eyes of the old emperor.

In the end, the old emperor looked away slightly, "Even if I want to use the empress to coerce you, so what, if you are worried that the empress will be wronged in the palace, you can go back with me to inherit the throne.

After I abdicate, she will be the Queen Mother, so who dares to disrespect her? "

"But she is your wife, your woman! She is your family!" Li An's eyes were like knives.

"There are three thousand beauties in my harem, which one is not my woman?" The old emperor met Li An's eyes: "I have to worry about not only our family, I am the emperor, but also the thousands of families of the people in the world!

You Li An is capable, why can't you inherit the great rule for the benefit of the people? "

"Isn't there still Old Fifteen?"

"His ability is not as good as yours, for the future of the country, you must do it.

You are still young and playful, I understand that you don't want to take on this burden prematurely, and I can still do it for a few more years, but An'er, remember, only you can restore my great fortune. "

After finishing speaking, the old emperor got up: "We are leaving tonight, you should consider what I have said to you."

……

In the evening, Li An sent the old emperor and the others to the carriage.

When parting, Li An looked at Empress Qi reluctantly.

Empress Qi patted the back of Li An's hand lovingly: "An'er, go back, Yeliang."

Li An respectfully saluted Empress Qi.

The carriage gradually left, Empress Qi looked at Li An and his party at the gate of the city reluctantly.

Seeing this, the old emperor thought for a while and said, "Is the empress willing to stay in Qingshui County?"

A look of longing flashed in Empress Qi's eyes, and before she could answer, she saw the old emperor's lonely expression.

After a while, Empress Qi smiled and bowed slightly to the old emperor: "The concubine is naturally by His Majesty's side. Wherever Your Majesty is, the concubine will be there."

The old emperor tilted his head slightly, his eyes were a little moist, and he raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Queen, An'er wants to keep you in Qingshui County."

"An'er has a heart."

"Oh, this child, you think of me too ruthlessly and ungratefully, sometimes I can't help myself."

"Why doesn't Your Majesty have a good chat with An'er? An'er will understand His Majesty."

"No need, I am an emperor, and emperors are born to be ruthless and ungrateful, and I am not qualified to be an emperor.

Queen, will you blame me? "The old emperor said again inexplicably.

Empress Qi smiled slightly, her eyes were a little deep: "No wonder."

The old emperor had a bitter expression on his face. If it was her at the beginning, she would have confide in herself directly, expressing her dissatisfaction and protest, right?

……

On the second day after the old emperor left, he went to the capital to meet the kings of many small countries, and then returned to Qingshui County. They still came to bid farewell to Li An before returning to their own country.

Princess Le Yao also told Li An about Li Xu's desire to win her over.

Knowing this, Li An just smiled disdainfully.

Stupid thing, he thought that he was in control of the overall situation in the court, and many courtiers were supporting him.

He never thought that maybe others just thought he was stupid, so they would support him in order to gain more power in the future?

He regards others as pawns. Has he ever thought that maybe he himself is someone else's pawns?

Li An is too lazy to talk to this idiot, I hope he will be more sensible in the future, and don't seek death!

……

When the old emperor returned to the capital, he was busy until the early morning of the next day without a break, and then he went to court.

He is very diligent.

early morning.

Li Xu was the first to stand up: "Father, the military equipment sent to the southern border by the Ministry of War was hijacked by bandits. My son has already sent people to find the lost military equipment. The escort officer has committed negligence and committed suicide!"

Li Xu was afraid that Li An would also tell the old emperor about the military equipment, so he took the initiative to attack, first silenced everyone who knew everything, and then shifted all responsibility to the bandits.

Even if the old emperor wants to check, there is nothing to check!

"The Ministry of War is sending armaments to the south?" The old emperor's eyes were slightly cold, and he looked at the Minister of the Ministry of War coldly.

The Minister of the Ministry of War hurriedly knelt down: "Your Majesty, King Chen sits in the southern border and defends the Nanling Kingdoms, and he has made great contributions.

King Chen is now going to provide armaments for the northern border, and he has built a new army of 20. The Ministry of War should share the pressure for the prince.

I originally wanted to invite His Majesty to play first, but it was time for His Majesty to pay a private visit, so I dared to send the general to go there first. "

The old emperor glanced at the minister of the Ministry of War and nodded.

His eyes are deep, and no one knows what he is thinking.

The court fell into a brief silence. At this time, Prime Minister Song Qing stood up with a solemn expression: "Your Majesty, there are rebellions in many places in the southern border. The southern border is the fiefdom of King Chen, and the rebellious king of the fief is also responsible. Please punish King Chen. !"

"Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance, and please take this matter seriously." Another courtier knelt down: "If your Majesty hastily dealt with this matter, I am afraid that you will not be able to warn other fief kings. Hua is in danger!"

"I implore Your Majesty to take this matter seriously." This time, almost all the ministers in the court knelt down.

King Chen's fief rebelled, and they all knew that it was because King Chen moved the nobles in the fief.

They also have to guess whether King Chen is throwing stones to ask for directions. If they don't pay attention to this matter and don't put pressure on His Majesty, the next thing King Chen will move will be them, the great nobles?

The old emperor sneered disdainfully, "Why is there a rebellion in the southern border?"

"Because King Chen killed the local gentry and noble gentry!"

"Then why did An'er kill the gentry and gentry in the southern border?"

All the ministers were dumbfounded, and Prime Minister Song Qing answered: "The prince's reasons are all kinds of strange, he wants to kill the nobles when he trips over a stone while walking, and he wants to kill the nobles if he gets stuck in a fishbone while eating!

May I ask your Majesty, what is the reason for this?It's just that the prince is arrogant and domineering, and he takes pleasure in killing people.King Chen's tyranny, please His Majesty strictly investigate! "

"Then how do you think I should deal with Li An?" The old emperor looked at the prime minister coldly.

"The waste king!"

"I beg your majesty to abolish the king and return the people of the southern border to a peaceful and prosperous world. If your majesty does not make a decision soon, the people of the southern border will be bullied and oppressed by King Chen, and sooner or later they will rebel!

For the stability of the country, King Chen must be abolished! "

Song Qing's voice fell, and the ministers of the court were in a chorus of anger: "I beg your Majesty to abolish King Chen, otherwise the hearts of the people all over the world will be chilled!"

"So, you all think that King Chen should be abolished?"

"Your Majesty's lesson!"

"Huh~" The old emperor looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh of relief: "Did you forget that on this trip, I am going to the southern border."

Hearing this, many ministers showed confused expressions. They only knew that His Majesty visited privately and took the Empress to relax. Few people knew of His Majesty's whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, His Majesty went to the southern border!

Song Qing's eyes were firm, and he looked at the old emperor: "Since your Majesty has gone to the southern border, why do you want to allow King Chen to kill innocent people indiscriminately, causing the people in the southern border to suffer and live in dire straits!

The prince is the heir of His Majesty, so are the people in the southern border not His Majesty's people? "

"Song Qing, your courage is getting bigger and bigger." A killing intent flashed in the old emperor's eyes.

"The former emperor's vassals are the prime ministers. It is necessary for the ministers to be alert to His Majesty at all times. The country and the people of Liming are the most important thing!"

Chapter 257 Choose by yourself

The old emperor looked coldly at the impassioned Song Qing, he waved, and the personal eunuch came up with a stack of documents.

The old emperor took the documents and threw them all at Song Qing's face: "See for yourself what these are."

Song Qing frowned and picked up the documents on the ground. He saw that they were the evidence of the gentry who were killed by Li An.

Song Qing threw down a document in disbelief, and quickly picked up the next one to check, and sure enough this one was the same.

Soon Song Qing took a cursory glance at all the documents, and found that so many documents were all evidence of crimes against the southern gentry!

Song Qing's face was full of disbelief, since King Chen started to wipe out the gentry in the southern border, it has only been more than a month.

How did he collect all the evidence in such a short period of time?

There is another possibility, that is, King Chen collected these evidences long ago, in order to annihilate all the nobles in the southern border at this very moment!

The courtiers looked at Song Qing with disbelief and surprise, and they all cast puzzled and curious eyes.

The old emperor glanced coldly: "Xiao Anzi, please read it to all the loves."

"Yes." The close old eunuch saluted respectfully, walked up to Song Qing, picked up the documents, and read them out one by one.

As the criminal evidence of the nobles in the southern border was displayed, all the ministers showed expressions of disbelief.

With so much criminal evidence, it would take a long time to collect all of them, right?When did King Chen start killing the nobles in the southern border?

You know, his previous fiefdom was only in southern Xinjiang, and they would be able to figure it out if the evidence of the southern Xinjiang gentry's crimes.

But His Majesty has just granted the entire Southern Territory to King Chen, how long has it been?

King Chen is more ruthless than they imagined, and hundreds of times more difficult to deal with!

As the last piece of criminal evidence was read out, the old emperor looked at the courtiers coldly: "Did King Chen kill the wrong person for such a heinous crime?"

All the ministers were speechless, and the evidence was so overwhelming that they could no longer argue.

The old emperor looked at Song Qing.

Song Qing put away the expression on his face, and saluted respectfully: "It's the old minister who wronged King Chen, and the old minister voluntarily punished!"

The old emperor smiled coldly, and looked at Song Qing: "Among these criminal evidences, there is a rebel called Song Zhishu, Mr. Xiangguo, do you have any impression?"

Song Qing froze for a moment, thought hard, and shook his head: "Return to Your Majesty, I don't know about Song Zhishu."

The old emperor shook his head: "Your Majesty Xiangguo really forgets things. This Song Zhishu and you belong to the same family, and your ancestors are of the same origin as you!"

Hearing this, Song Qing's pupils dilated, sweat poured down like rain, and he knelt down on the ground instantly in horror.

"Your Majesty, I don't know who this Song Zhishu is. Maybe they are just a branch of our ancestors, but since my ancestors, I have no communication with them, and they are not recorded in my Song family tree! "

"But on his family's genealogy, there is your name, Mr. Xiangguo!" The old emperor's eyes were cold.

Song Qing was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground.

Rebellion and rebellion, that is to be killed one by one according to the genealogy!

"Your Majesty, I really don't know about this matter, and I don't know about Song Zhishu. Song Zhishu's genealogy must have been forged, and it was fabricated in order to gain power!" Song Qing explained in a panic.

"Nonsense, the genealogy is still made up, does anyone really recognize their ancestors indiscriminately?" The old emperor's eyes were cold.

Song Qing was speechless.

"Ai~" The old emperor sighed a long time: "The former emperor appointed you as prime minister, and these years you have devoted yourself to the sake of Dahua. I think you have made great achievements in these years, so I will not hold you accountable."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Qing was ecstatic, kowtowing to the old emperor.

"You're getting old too, let's resign and go back to your hometown to take care of yourselves." The old emperor waved his hand.

Song Qing stared wide-eyed, looking at the old emperor in disbelief.

The old emperor looked at Shang Song Qing without hiding the murderous intent in his eyes.
