Chapter 56 Bloody
Zhu Song's face remained as usual, and he was really just like Yang Yizhong.
It's not that they are similar in any way...in fact, the stubbornness in the two of them, well, they are indeed similar.
What is placed on the top of his head is the emperor's sword... and this dismissal was caused by the death of the Minister of War. Zhu Song should have known that if the emperor could kill the minister, he could also kill him, the minister.
Yes, he should know.
Therefore, he should not let himself get off stage.
"I, the Minister of Rites, Zhu Song, would like to express my resignation to His Majesty the Emperor. I hope that the officials will grant me permission."
Facing the emperor's request, Zhu Shilang repeated his request again.
"Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Of course I'm afraid."
Xiang Guangshi kept his performance in mind, and when he saw that the emperor lost his temper, he was not willing to let it go.
He stepped forward and shouted angrily: "It's rude to uphold Confucianism, are you trying to resist the decree!"
Liu Bang glanced at him. The old boy still had the ability to adapt to the changing circumstances.
"You insist on resigning because I killed Wu Biaochen. You think I did something wrong, don't you?"
"The official is right, and the official is not wrong; the minister is wrong. Thunder, rain, and dew are all God's grace. Even if you don't act in accordance with the laws of heaven, it is because the minister failed to give advice in time."
After a pause, Liu Bang took off the scabbard of his sword, filling the hall of the Ministry of Rites with a chill.
"I think you might...still don't believe...that I can really kill people."
He came out of the palace just to let these people with broken backs serve as their officials honestly, and don't even think about threatening him in this way.
It doesn't make sense to be submissive in the face of a golden man, and to strike hard in the face of one's own emperor.
But now, I met a person like Zhu Song from the beginning...
Liu Bang wondered if he had thought more simply.
The nine sons of Longsheng are all different. It should not be surprising that among these Confucian scholars, there are some who are hard-nosed.
I sighed secretly in my heart: What a pity, if everyone was like this person, the emperor of Song Dynasty would really be meaningless.
But then again, if everyone was like this, why would the Song Dynasty be like this?
Zhu Song was silent for a while, then he bowed even lower... When others looked at this posture, they felt tired for him.
"Your Majesty Zhu Song, please resign!"
Liu Bang knelt down and looked at this man's face... he had an ordinary appearance, which was in line with his impression of a Confucian scholar.
"If it were another time, I would have put people like you to good use and treated them like treasures."
"But now..." Liu Bang shook his head, "If I don't kill you, everyone will imitate you, and I won't be able to do anything."
As he spoke, he adjusted the angle of the sword so that the tip of the sword was just facing the man's throat.
As long as he presses forward, this Zhu Shilang will soon go to see his Confucius.
Whether he was tired from this posture or frightened by the emperor's words, a drop of sweat seeped out from his right temple, slid down the side of his face, and finally connected to his chin.
Zhu Song's ideas are suitable for every ruler, and his requirements for himself are exactly what every emperor requires for his people.
But again, now is the time to fight for the world, and using the same method of governing the world will not work.
"Chen Xian, a member of the Ministry of Rites and Foreign Affairs, please resign from the official family!"
At first, everyone was very afraid... They, the people in the Ministry of Rites, usually had little power, but whenever peace was negotiated, they were the second ones to be reviled by the people all over the world.
The first one is naturally Prime Minister Qin.
Even people like Su Fu, whose grandfather's reputation is extremely high, cannot be avoided, let alone people like them.
But at the same time, they can also be said to be the toughest group of people in the Song Dynasty.
Are you really that comfortable after selling your country?
You have to be scolded on behalf of the emperor, you have to be angry with the golden man, and you have to endure the questioning of yourself when you return home.
It is difficult for anyone to object to saying that they were the most aggrieved yamen in the Song Dynasty.
But why are they so aggrieved?
In addition to the people who originally wanted to negotiate peace, it was not because they were loyal to his Zhao Guan family.
But now, the emperor has his sword against Zhu Song's throat...
I don’t know whether it’s because I’m afraid of losing my temper, or because I’ve really given up and felt it was boring. Anyway, the second person who made it difficult for the emperor to step down appeared.
When Chen Xian came out, he reminded everyone...
What is the biggest reason for their dismissal?
Isn’t it just that the law does not hold everyone accountable!
Now someone has taken the lead...
"The talent of the Song Dynasty, a doctor in the Ministry of Rites, resigns from the official family!"
Song Zhicai has a pretty good name.
Soon, a crowd of people knelt down in the lobby of the Ministry of Ceremonies.
Even some officials, whether they were sincere or just following the general trend, started shouting.
Xiang Guangshi stared at this person and cursed at that, but he still couldn't stop these people's actions.
Liu Bang stood up and glanced around the people around him. He could see nothing except the top of his head or the top of his head.
"It turns out that everyone is not bloodless."
The emperor said such words, which made all the ministers blush.
But most of them are still gritting their teeth and unwilling to compromise.
As Liu Bang, he liked this scene very much.
But as an emperor, he was still the emperor of the Song Dynasty, and he was extremely disgusted.
"That's all..."
Putting the sword back into its sheath, he turned around to leave, but then looked back at the plaque hanging in the lobby of the Ministry of Etiquette...
The writing was very sloppy and he had a hard time reading it.
I don’t know how long I watched it, but it took me a lot of patience to get him to recognize me.
No idleness, no waste.
He knew this word, and there were four more words after it: King of the Four Barbarians.
No idleness, no waste, the king from all over the barbarians will come.
If only it were that simple, that would be great.
How proud he was of Pharmacist Guo just now, now he is being slapped in the face so hard.
As soon as he stepped out of the gate of the Ministry of Rites, he turned towards Xiang Guangshi:
"Call them all back."
Seeing that the opportunity to make meritorious deeds was gone, Xiang Guangshi was not willing to do anything, so he hurriedly advised:
"The officials and the Ministry of Rites are full of rotten scholars. Let's go to the Ministry of War. The people in the Ministry of War are weak."
Come here in person, the people here are so determined.
You can imagine how much pressure Yang Yizhong and the others must have encountered.
Liu Bang waved his hand: "If I don't tell you a second time, you should move faster."
After saying this, he mounted the horse by himself, ignored everyone, and headed towards the palace.
In the lobby of the Ministry of Rites, everyone looked like soldiers returning from victory. After breathing a sigh of relief, they hurriedly helped Zhu Song up.
But I saw that Zhu Shilang, who was neither humble nor overbearing in front of the emperor just now, was red-eyed at this moment.
"Brother Qiao Nian, you, what's wrong with you?"
"I should be happy when the officials wake up. Why do you look like this?"
Facing his friend's inquiry, Zhu Song squeezed out a smile: "The officials have woken up, but by acting like this, aren't we forcing your Majesty?"
"This is what a minister should do."
"Gentlemen, just now..." Zhu Song's smile turned into a bitter smile, "You really shouldn't imitate me."
"This time, I have to die to make my determination clear."
