Chapter 297: Chapter 125-heaven’s will and Dao fruit
“Governing a country is like governing a family. A country has its laws, and a family has its own rules. If we ignore the laws, how can we talk about exterminating the foreign races, suppressing the great Zhou, and returning peace to the world?” The Grand Preceptor said.
“Zhen has learned.” Emperor Sheng Wen said.
Facing the gazes of all the ministers, he gave an order,””The twelfth Prince ignored the laws of the Imperial court and disguised himself as the ninth Prince. He instructed the left Assistant Minister of the Ministry of Rites to steal the exam questions. Strip him of his status as a Prince and throw him into the Imperial Clan Court. From today onwards, he’s not allowed to take a single step out of the court unless it’s a major ceremony. ”
He stood up from the Dragon Throne, flicked his sleeves, and left with a cold face.
The matter was basically over.
He was now in a rage. A Prince had died, another Prince had been crippled, and another Prince had been tortured half to death. He was even scarier than a pig. No matter how good he was at recuperating, it was useless.
The civil and military officials also understood this principle, so they knew when to stop.
As long as the 12th Prince was convicted, the rest of the matter could be discussed in the morning court tomorrow.
Eunuch Zhu was embarrassed. He looked at the Imperial edict in his hand and crushed it with his palm. He and eunuch Liang quickly followed.
After they left, all the officials stood up.
The Three Ducal Ministers left first.
Fu Xianhe walked over to Lei Yuantai and cupped his hands in thanks,””You’ve worked hard!”
Lei Yuantai shook his head,”everything is for the sake of all the scholars in the world.”
The two of them nodded.
This wasn’t the place to talk, so he turned around and left.
The other ministers also left one after another to pass on the news to the people behind them.
At the South Gate of the Imperial Palace.
A young eunuch hurriedly ran over and whispered a few words into the Imperial Army General’s ear before leaving.
The general was stunned. His cold eyes were filled with disbelief. This matter had actually ended like this.
He came back to his senses.
He didn’t dare to delay and hurried forward, stopping at the white line.
Facing the gazes of these students, he shouted,””Silence!”
With the support of spiritual energy, the voice turned into a wave of air and entered the ears of everyone present.
Seeing him speak, everyone guessed that there was a conclusion to this matter. Everyone quieted down.
The tens of thousands of people were silent.
The general said,”we’ve found out the examination questions. The twelfth Prince was the one who did it in secret.” His Majesty has already stripped him of his status as a Prince, thrown him into the Imperial Clan Court, and imprisoned him for life!”
“Long live Your Majesty!” It was unknown who took the lead and shouted.
Very quickly.
All the students were cheering loudly.
They had never thought about how much effort the people behind the scenes had put in to find out the truth.
He did not know.
Emperor Sheng Wen wanted to stop this matter, and he almost pushed the eighteenth Prince out as a scapegoat.
All he could see was the result!
The cheers were getting louder and louder.
Seeing that the general was still here, an examinee couldn’t help but ask,””My Lord, may I ask when the autumn hunt will be restored?”
This question was what all the examinees were thinking.
The lively scene quieted down once again.
Even the scholars were very curious and waited quietly.
“We’ll wait for the Imperial court’s decision and then come up with a new topic. At that time, we’ll naturally set a time, and the process won’t be too long. You don’t need to worry. The Royal Court will compensate you for your accommodation and food expenses during these days of delay. ” The general said.
This time.
They cheered even louder, shouting,”long live Your Majesty!”
Looking at these young and innocent faces, the general shook his head. He knew more inside information and sighed in his heart.”Although the process was a little difficult, the spark of hope was still passed down.”
They cheered for a while.
These scholars began to disperse, feeling happy in their hearts. They called their friends and went to the restaurant, drunken immortal court, chunfang court, and other places to gather.
On this day.
The restaurants in the capital, the drunken immortal court, and so on were earning a lot of money.
This was especially so for the famous entertainment places like drunken immortal court and chunfang court. The girls were very tired. After greeting this guest, they hurriedly washed up, changed their clothes, and touched up some simple makeup before greeting the next guest.
In the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Sheng Wen stood in the Imperial garden and looked at the ornamental fish swimming in the lake with a blank expression.
He heard the cheers from outside.
Eunuch Zhu and eunuch Liang looked at each other. Eunuch Zhu then said,”Your Majesty, are you still angry?”
Emperor Sheng Wen shook his head.”Why should I be angry?”
He looked outside the palace.
“Listen, they’re celebrating, shouting long live Zhen. What reason do I have to be angry?”
“Then, you …” Eunuch Zhu did not continue.
“I’ve already given them a chance to buy time for them, but they’ve disappointed me too much. He had the advantage of time, place, and people, yet he still lost in such a situation. He didn’t clean up his ass, so he can’t blame anyone for his defeat. ” Emperor Sheng Wen said.
A golden fish jumped into the air from the lake and then fell into the water, creating ripples.
“Take this fish for example. If it’s kept in the water, it’ll always be an ornamental fish. It can’t take on great responsibilities and can’t scare people. Only by jumping out of the lake, like a fish leaping over the Dragon Gate, can one soar into the sky. ”
He seemed to have guessed the confusion in their hearts.
Emperor Sheng Wen explained again. Perhaps he had kept these words in his heart for too long and wanted to take this opportunity to say them.
“No matter what the outcome was, I did not lose. From the beginning to the end, I had the situation under control. Although twelfth brother had been locked up in the Imperial Clan Court, eighteenth brother had died, and ninth brother had been tortured beyond recognition. But after experiencing this, ninth brother will become more mature. In the future, he will be able to plan more thoroughly and not leave any traces. It will be beneficial to his growth and I will win the hearts of all the scholars in the world. Even if the divine sword guards find out who the mastermind is and the officials kneel down to beg for orders, it’s up to the Emperor to decide how to do it. ”
