Jiang Li sat on the throne, looking graceful and heroic. She waited for a while, but didn't seem to hear anyone stand up to argue with her?
I couldn't help but feel strange and asked doubtfully:
"Where's Marquis Wu'an? Didn't he come to court today?"
"Your Majesty, Marquis Wu'an is here."
As a dozen court officials made way, they saw a stretcher placed on the ground.
Marquis Wu'an Zhang Erhe was lying on a stretcher.
When everyone's eyes fell on him, Zhang Erhe suddenly twitched twice, and his illness became more serious.
Ma Jin said respectfully, "Your Majesty, the Marquis of Wu'an feigned illness and used this as an excuse to not attend the morning court. He is in office but does not contribute to the administration of the country, and is simply sitting there doing nothing. Your Majesty, please punish him severely."
“Ah, ah…”
Zhang Erhe twitched twice on the stretcher, and white foam suddenly came out of the corners of his mouth.
It's obviously going to fail.
At that moment, Ma Jin was a little confused: No way? Could it be that Zhang Erhe wasn't pretending to be sick? Could he really be sick?
But when the guards went to carry Zhang Erhe in the morning, they saw that he was in great shape. Besides, what kind of illness could a person like Zhang Erhe, who took elixirs every other day, have?
"Your Majesty, your Majesty... Zhang Erhe, has suddenly fallen seriously ill. No, I cannot, ahem, pay my respects to Your Majesty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive me..."
Zhang Erhe, who was trying hard to get up, trembled and fell heavily on the stretcher again.
He is absolutely terminally ill and his days are numbered!!
Seeing this, Jiang Li shook his head lightly, too lazy to say anything more.
She just looked at Ma Jin and said in a deep voice:
"Treason is an unforgivable crime. The tragedy of Prince Yan's rebellion ten years ago is still fresh in our memory. This matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated by the Mirror Division."
Ma Jin was obviously not convinced. Isn't this obvious?
Why does His Majesty still protect Lin Che?
Could it be that the recent rumors were true? Was His Majesty's feelings for Lin Che more than just a relationship between a ruler and his subject?
This won't work.
This opportunity is the best chance to kill Lin Che. If you miss it, there will be no chance in the future.
"Your Majesty, Lord Dao Nu is right beside Lin Che. A single imperial decree can summon Lin Che back to court. If he is truly innocent, then sending him back with the delegation won't be too late. It will definitely not waste time. If he doesn't dare to return to court, that would be a true act of disobedience, revealing his rebellious nature."
"Your Majesty, the evidence of Lin Che's crimes is irrefutable. We must not shield him any longer! If we allow him to remain at large, he will bring disaster to our country!"
"As a monarch and a minister, teach us how to face our ancestors?" Popular Science 3/6, give me five stars.
