Although everyone in the court would occasionally be jealous of each other, when they saw Mr. Lu being beaten to death, they couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness that the rabbit was dead and the dog was abandoned.
"Your Majesty, please show mercy and spare Minister Lu."
At this moment, someone in the crowd shouted.
If someone paid attention at this time, they would definitely find that the sound came from where Yang Tiejiang was kneeling.
It’s just that the voice is different from Yang Tiejiang’s rough voice.
But someone took the lead, and all the kneeling officials immediately began to plead: "Your Majesty, please have mercy."
Emperor Wenyuan remained unmoved.
When Wei Yaer saw this scene, a hint of pride appeared on the corner of her mouth without any expression. That old man actually dared to hit her. It would be a blessing for him if he was beaten to death.
"His Majesty!"
At this time, Liu Taifu knelt and took two steps forward: "Please spare Minister Lu."
"If he survives a hundred strokes of the cane, I will naturally not bother with him." Emperor Wenyuan said as if he didn't care.
Taifu Liu looked at Emperor Wenyuan and finally spoke in disappointment, "Your Majesty, what Minister Lu just said is correct. The woman beside you is indeed a seductive concubine. Not only is Your Majesty now ignoring state affairs, she can't even distinguish between good and evil. She is truly... extremely foolish!"
"presumptuous!"
Emperor Wenyuan shouted angrily.
Imperial Tutor Liu continued to speak loudly, "Think of the wise emperors of our dynasty who always cared about the people of the world and worked hard to govern the country, which led to a prosperous era. But now, you have been bewitched by that evil concubine, disregarding the country and the people's suffering. How can you be worthy of the legacy laid by our ancestors and face the people of the world with such behavior?
"How dare you, Master Liu..."
"His Majesty!"
Tutor Liu stood up. He had been kneeling for the whole morning, so his body swayed a bit, but he stood still again.
He looked at Emperor Wenyuan with a determined gaze: "You have been indulging in sensual pleasures all day long, forgetting the affairs of state. You have turned a deaf ear to honest advice, while your treacherous and enchanting concubine is favored. The court is in chaos, and the people outside the court are full of complaints. If this continues, the country will no longer be a country."
"I, Liu Huanyu, eat your salary and should share your worries."
"But now, Your Majesty will probably not listen."
"As your Majesty's teacher, I was unable to advise you. I deserve death. I am ashamed of your Majesty, ashamed of the late emperor, and ashamed of the people of this world. Today, I will die as an apology."
Taifu Liu spoke loudly word by word.
Without waiting for anyone's reaction, he suddenly rushed towards the large pillar in front of the nearby Palace of Heavenly Purity.
"Master Liu, no!"
"Teacher Liu..."
When the ministers in front saw this, they all stretched out their hands and shouted to stop him, but Taifu Liu was determined to die.
The action was so fast that even Emperor Wenyuan didn't react.
"Quick, stop him!"
When Emperor Wenyuan reacted, Taifu Liu ran up the stairs and punched the pillar with his head.
Just then.
A figure flashed by like lightning.
Before Master Liu's head was about to hit the pillar, he was kicked away.
But because the force of his kick was a bit too strong, Master Liu was kicked and flew onto the guard at the gate. Master Liu was old after all, and his bones were weak, so he was knocked unconscious.
Yang Tiejiang let out a breath.
Patting his chest, he said, "It's not bad, it's not bad. How come this old man was so fast? If I had kicked him a little slower, his brain would have been knocked out."
Yang Tiejiang probed under Master Liu's nose again.
Make sure the person is still alive.
He then happily returned to Emperor Wenyuan and said with a mouthful of white teeth, "Your Majesty, the person is alive, he just fainted, not dead."
Emperor Wenyuan also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, all of you have come to me and are causing me such trouble. If I really let you die here, I would be a tyrant."
"Stop fighting."
Upon hearing this, Yang Tiejiang immediately pointed at the guard who was beating Elder Lu with a stick and said, "Didn't you hear His Majesty say that we can't let people die? Don't make His Majesty a tyrant. Hurry and take the man to find the imperial physician. We must save him."
After saying that, Yang Tiejiang turned to look at Emperor Wenyuan and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. These old men are just stupid. You just got a few more days of rest. What's the big deal? The whole world belongs to you, Your Majesty. Even if you don't attend court every day, who can blame you?"
Many ministers who had just breathed a sigh of relief because Yang Tiejiang had saved Tutor Liu, suddenly turned pale when they heard what Yang Tiejiang said.
Listen!
Is this something a loyal minister could say?
This is clearly something a treacherous minister would say!!!
Li Gelao angrily accused Yang Tiejiang: "Marquis Zhenbei, Minister Lu and Grand Tutor Liu are all giving you loyal advice, don't..."
"Old man Li, calm down a bit and don't be like Grand Tutor Liu, banging your head against the wall and making such a bloody scene. This isn't a battlefield, there's no need for so many people to die."
Yang Tiejiang interrupted Li Ge Lao directly.
"This matter isn't that complicated. Isn't it just about His Majesty not attending the morning court? In fact, all we need to do is talk to His Majesty and ask him to get up earlier tomorrow to attend the morning court. Wouldn't that solve the problem?"
Yeah, it's very simple.
But damn, why are you only speaking now?
Why didn’t you say it just now?
At this moment, the ministers looked at Yang Tiejiang who was standing next to Emperor Wenyuan and talking eloquently, and for the first time they had the urge to punch him.
This is hindsight.
Yang Tiejiang didn't care what the ministers' expressions were. He smiled directly at Emperor Wenyuan and said, "Your Majesty, you are the emperor of the Wanqiu period. It's just a woman. No, it's just an early morning court. It's nothing to you. There's no need to let these old guys talk nonsense, don't you think?"
Emperor Wenyuan glanced at Yang Tiejiang.
Finally, he snorted coldly and said, "Everyone, please leave. I will go to the Golden Throne Hall for the morning court tomorrow."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Yang Tiejiang bowed and said, "Then we will take our leave. Your Majesty, please have a good rest. Long live the emperor."
Who is the best at flattery?
Um!
Looking at the rough man with unshaven beard who looks like a gorilla, all the gentlemen present who are fair-skinned and claim to be well-educated could not help but admit defeat.
What a fucking dog!
It makes people feel itchy.
However, this dog leg is indeed very effective.
It is much more effective than Lu Lao's death and Liu Taifu's death...
"Do you guys want to go see Minister Lu later?" Some adults asked their colleagues when leaving the palace.
"No."
At this time, a young man stepped forward and said, "I just heard two eunuchs passing by and saying that Minister Lu couldn't be saved and died!"
"Dead?"
"How could that be? Wasn't he sent to the Imperial Hospital?"
Everyone was shocked.
"It is said that he died when he was sent to the Imperial Hospital, and the imperial physician was unable to save him..."
