If the Tang Empire won, it would say to its opponents: "You damn well behave yourself in the future, or be careful that I wipe out your entire clan. Pay tribute obediently every year!"
<...He suddenly changed the subject, and the atmosphere in the court instantly changed from the spring breeze of March to the cold wind of December.
Wu Min was slightly startled, looking completely bewildered, then immediately knelt down, clearly terrified: "Your Majesty, I am innocent..."
When Wu Min said he was innocent, almost everyone genuinely believed he was innocent.
Because in everyone's eyes, Wu Min is harmless and does things in a very honest and upright manner.
Even Li Gang was recommended to the Emperor Emeritus by Wu Min!
How could he possibly collude with the Jin traitors!
He wretch, you've really ruined your brain by taking Liuwei Dihuang Pills!
Wu Min was also a proponent of war before the new emperor ascended the throne, and it was he and Li Gang who persuaded the retired emperor to abdicate in favor of the current emperor.
How did it suddenly become treason and betrayal of the country?
He had just finished speaking when Liu Yanzong immediately stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I also have a memorial to present!"
The ministers were startled. He Ye stepped forward, followed by Liu Yanzong.
This is a major incident!
"Liu Yusi, what do you have to report now?"
"Xu Bingzhe, the acting prefect of Kaifeng, has colluded with the Jurchen invaders. I humbly request Your Majesty to execute Xu Bingzhe by slow slicing!"
Liu Yanzong's words immediately shocked the court officials.
What day is today?
Why are both of the emperor's dogs coming out to bite people?
Zhao Huan asked, "Is there any evidence?"
Liu Yanzong presented all the transcripts of the interrogation conducted by the Imperial City Guard yesterday. Zhao Huan glanced at them and immediately flew into a rage: "Outrageous!"
The ministers were alarmed. Had the Censorate already collected all the evidence?
This is clearly a show put on by the Censorate in cooperation with the Emperor! Holy crap!
