Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 911

Zheng Dongqing's legs trembled with fear and he fell to his knees after being hit by the letter.

Emperor Mingde didn't need the other party to say anything. He didn't even bother to look at him and named another person, "Wang Liufang!"

"The old minister is here!" Another minister who had not attended court for a long time came to court.

Emperor Mingde asked, "Have you forgotten the scandal of adultery that spread ten years ago? It caused a great uproar in the city?" He picked up the memorial and threw it at the old man's face. "What qualifications do you have to impeach the upright and capable Lord Gao?"

Wang Liufang lowered his cloudy eyes, knelt down and cried out, "I am innocent. It was not me who did the ugly thing. It was my brother who did it..."

Emperor Mingde laughed in anger, "That's because your family tradition is not upright. Do you want me to list a few scandals in your inner house?"

Don't count them all! Wang Liufang was afraid that Emperor Mingde would dig up something more, so he didn't dare to cry out that he was wronged. After all, his old skin couldn't stand being dug up.

Then Emperor Mingde called out his name, "Liu Zhaoye!"

"I am here, your old minister! Cough, cough, cough..." It's over, it's over, the emperor has called on me! Liu Zhaoye closed his eyes, kicked his feet, tilted his body, and immediately fainted in the hall.

Didn't you want to make a remonstrance with blood? Didn't you want to hit the pillar? It hasn't even come to that step yet, and you're already scared and fainted? Emperor Mingde secretly cursed, and for the first time, he thought that the Queen Mother's camp was not scary, but full of good-for-nothings.

If I hadn't been so hesitant back then, would I have fewer regrets?

When this thought came to his mind, he shook his head in his heart.

Emperor Mingde knew that if he started a civil war, many people would die. Once the civil war started, it would be the day for other countries to attack.

Now, if it weren't for Cen Yuan and Shi Anxia who were supporting loyal ministers bit by bit and reducing the power of treacherous ministers bit by bit behind the scenes, how could he have the confidence to angrily confront the old ministers who had been receiving salaries for nothing all year round in the court?

Are these old ministers useless?

They are still useful. They have been the foundation of the North Wing for many years.

It is intricate and complex, and a single move can affect the entire body.

If it was just a minor punishment with salary deduction, the officials related to him would just watch.

If we ignore the consequences and directly send him to prison and execute him, the officials involved will be unable to sit still and the entire court will be shaken.

Now is not the time to move, I will endure it! Emperor Mingde was so depressed that he held his anger in his chest.

One day, I will replace all of your dirty blood, leaving not a single drop.

Emperor Mingde ordered the Imperial Hospital to come and wake Liu Zhaoye up, and then said, "I ask you..."

Don't ask, I won't impeach you! Liu Zhaoye kowtowed hurriedly, breathing heavily, "Your Majesty, I didn't have time to study yesterday's memorial in detail, so I request that it be withdrawn."

Emperor Mingde threw the memorial in front of him, "You've finished without even examining a single sentence? You've just made empty promises and recklessly exercised your power to impeach a meritorious official of our dynasty. You'll be fined a year's salary! Go and reflect on yourself!"

I wanted to punish him with ten sticks, but how could his old bones withstand one stick? He fainted before he was even hit. He had to ask the imperial hospital to treat his injuries. Isn't it the emperor who suffered the most?

"I obey your order!" Liu Zhaoye rolled over and over. Just as he rolled to the door of the hall, he fell down again.

Fortunately, the imperial physician from the Imperial Medical Bureau had not left yet and continued to treat the patient.

Liu Zhaoye held the memorial in his hand and looked back at Emperor Mingde who was sitting majestically in the hall. His heart trembled violently.

He was clearly an emperor at the height of his power. How could the Queen Mother fight against the true dragon emperor?

He was on the wrong side! A deep feeling of powerlessness came over him.

This time, Liu Zhaoye really fainted and was carried directly to the Imperial Hospital, where he stayed.

In the Golden Palace, Emperor Mingde continued to call the roll. A group of ministers came out tremblingly and stepped forward to claim their own memorials.

Qiqi was fined one year's salary, and immediately everything quieted down.

Emperor Mingde glanced at the livid faces of the Li family members and raised the corners of his lips slightly, "If I find that they are fabricated again, I will investigate it strictly."
