The First Tyrant of Daxia

The minister who was speaking had cold sweat on his forehead and didn't dare to look at him at all.

He gritted his teeth and replied, "I heard that, but isn't this trial meeting to try King Shunxun and others?"

"Although we are connected to several major clans, in the final analysis, our crimes are only marginal."

He said that!

The eyes of many noble ministers began to flicker, and they quickly smelled a chance to save themselves.

If Your Majesty wants to deal with me, shouldn't King Shunxun be executed?

"Your Majesty, that's right!"

"This old man... agrees."

"Wei, I think so too."

Aristocratic ministers, fearing being purged, began to echo one after another, attempting to put pressure on Qin Yun.

The cabinet ministers all twitched their lips. What a bunch of fearless people!

boom!

A loud noise came from the dragon throne.

Qin Yun stood up suddenly, his face was cold and his eyes were murderous.

"Humph, you are a bunch of bastards, you dare to threaten me!"

"The last person who put pressure on me still has his head hanging at Xuanwu Gate!"

"Somebody come!"

He roared loudly, like thunder, and the entire Tai Chi Hall trembled rapidly.

The imperial guards rushed in quickly with their armor roaring.

Seeing this scene, the faces of the many noble ministers who were kneeling down turned pale.

Begging for mercy.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty! You can't do this!"

"We have never committed any crime, nor have we participated in any rebellion. Why are we being treated like this?"

"Isn't the trial meeting to judge the Youzhou people and the clans?"

"No, Your Majesty!"

"..."

The nobles and ministers burst into tears and were extremely frightened.

At this time, Wei Zheng said uprightly: "Your Majesty, these people are committing crimes and should be punished."

“But I think that things have their priorities. If we don’t deal with Prince Shunxun and others and deal with them first, it will cause criticism.”

The eyes of many noble ministers lit up, as if they had grasped a life-saving straw!

Even Lord Wei has spoken out. I'm sure Your Majesty will have no choice but to compromise in order not to punish King Shunxun.

They all said, "Your Majesty, Lord Wei is right."

"Please deal with King Shunxun first."

"I am willing to accept the punishment for my minor mistakes."

Hearing this, Qin Yun laughed out of anger!

"Good good!"

"We need to deal with King Shunxun first, right?"

"I declare King Shunxun innocent!"

"And you, drag them away, give them a hundred lashes, strip them of their official positions, and demote them to commoners!"

The words caused a huge uproar.

Gu Chuntang and others did not think it was inappropriate, they just felt that His Majesty's methods were too drastic!

The nobles and ministers were in an uproar, their eyes filled with fear!

"Your Majesty, how can this be possible?"

"Why is King Shunxun innocent? Why should we be implicated and stripped of our official positions?!"

Qin Yun snorted coldly and rushed down the dragon ladder.

His murderous look made many noble ministers retreat and tremble, not daring to look up.

This is not the first time that Your Majesty has beaten someone in the Taiji Hall.

"Son of a bitch!"

"Why do you think so?"

"I'm here to tell you why King Shunxun is innocent!"

"In the Battle of Youzhou, Prince Shunxun led the Twelve Generals of Yanyun and fought to the death with more than 200,000 soldiers from the Aristocratic Alliance."

"You have secured for me the best opportunity to bury the clan's heinous conspiracy and ambition in Lantian County."

"If they hadn't risked their lives, how could you all enjoy your lives in peace and happiness now?" Qin Yun said excitedly.

Tai Chi Hall, eyes flickering.

Wei Zheng and other loyal ministers still felt that something was wrong and wanted to speak up.

boom!

Qin Yun suddenly punched himself hard!

Heartbroken.

He said hoarsely: "More than 100,000 soldiers from Youzhou were all buried in Lantian County. The slogan they shouted before they died was to be loyal to Daxia!"

"Whose son is this? Whose husband is this? He will be killed without a complete body!"

"No complete body left!"

Qin Yun's eyes were red, his voice was hoarse, and he was full of emotion!

All the ministers felt their scalps tingle immediately, and even a pedantic person like Wei Zheng fell silent, feeling quite guilty.

"Even if they did, isn't a battle of redemption involving hundreds of thousands of people, with countless casualties, enough?"

"The Youzhou prison tragedy has also been revealed. It has nothing to do with Prince Shunxun!"

"They proved themselves and defended the country with their death!"

"And what about you?!"

Qin Yun's eyes turned fierce, and he kicked a noble minister to the ground.

"What about you, bastards? What did you do?"

The minister who was kicked knelt on the ground, trembling.

"Besides forming cliques, being fence-sitters, and causing trouble for others, what else can you do?"

"what??"

Qin Yun roared, his eyes were murderous!

The dozen or so ministers who stood up retreated with their foreheads on the ground in fear.

"Your Majesty, we know we were wrong..."

"King Shunxun is not guilty, not guilty."

Qin Yun snorted coldly: "Don't try this on me!"

"roll!"

"Drag the imperial guards away, give them fifty strokes of the cane, and demote them all to serve as a warning to others!"

After saying that, he felt unsatisfied and pointed a finger.

He roared to the entire Taiji Hall: "From now on, anyone who dares to slander the heroic souls who died for Daxia will be executed without exception. There is no room for negotiation!"

"Drag it!"

The imperial guards quickly stepped forward, grabbed the nobles and ministers and dragged them out.

They struggled, cried, and trembled all over.

"Your Majesty, please don't!"

"We really know we were wrong."

"We didn't participate in the rebellion, you can't do this..."

The sound gradually faded away, and the dozen people felt extremely miserable.

The noble ministers who had managed to escape by chance and did not stand up to threaten Qin Yun were all soaked with cold sweat.

He was shaking on the spot, not daring to look up.

Qin Yun took a deep breath!

He looked at the civil and military officials and said, "I intend to grant amnesty to Prince Shunxun and his followers. What do you think?"

Most of the ministers twitched their lips, thinking that you have already talked about all the profound truths, what else do you want us to say?

Wouldn't it be disrespectful to the heroic spirit of Da Xia as soon as you open your mouth?

Only a heavyweight minister like Wei Zheng dared to turn around and exchange opinions.

Finally, he decided: "Your Majesty... what you said makes sense. Amnesty is also possible, but..."

"I'm afraid you still have to be punished, otherwise everyone will dare to disrespect you in the future."

Qin Yun knew he would say that, so he deliberately showed an extremely embarrassed expression.

"Ugh!"

"Wei Aiqing, why are you fooling around with them...?"

A trace of shame appeared on Wei Zheng's old face, and he disappointed the emperor.

He struggled a bit, his cloudy eyes flickering: "Your Majesty... How about this?"

"Transfer King Shunxun away from Youzhou and have him take his people to open up wasteland in the border areas."

"Even if this is a punishment, it can calm the people."

After he finished speaking, a minister echoed him.

"Your Majesty, I agree. After all, it is no longer appropriate for Prince Shunxun to stay in Youzhou. The people in Lantian County suffered terribly after the battle. If he is not punished..."

Qin Yun remained calm and asked awkwardly, "Is this what you all mean?"

Most officials looked at each other and said, "Your Majesty, we mean the same thing."

Hearing this, Qin Yun suddenly laughed!

His expression changed: "Okay, it's a deal, let's do it!"

"Whoever dares to go back on his word is deceiving the emperor!"

puff……

Wei Zheng almost vomited blood and stared at Qin Yun with wide eyes.

The civil and military ministers suddenly reacted.

His Majesty's tearful speech just now was to pave the way for the present. He had thought of this almost impunity-free punishment from the very beginning.

They were speechless, but they had no way to refute...

"Hmph." Wei Zheng blew his beard and glared, then retreated with an unhappy look on his face.

Qin Yun did not blame the old man. He smiled and thought to himself that his eleventh brother and the others were safe.

The next step is to deal with the aftermath, plan to recover Xiliang, and issue a land restriction order.
