Wang Qi knelt, and some court officials who were afraid of being killed by Wang Qi, as well as Gu Yi and other members of the Gu family who supported Gu Qing's ascension to the throne, also knelt.
In the huge court, only some conservatives or those who think they are supporters of etiquette and law still stand proudly while saying "etiquette and music are in decline" and "it is not decent".
Gu Qingcheng sat high up in the main seat, looking at those people, and was about to take action.
Wang Qi stood up first in a flash.
He directly drew out his machete and walked step by step to those old stubborn people——
"What did you say? Hens crowing at dawn?"
"Haha, you are a rooster, but besides clucking, what have you done for the world and the people?"
This time, Wang Qi didn't attack anyone directly.
Since it was about Aqing, he still maintained some patience and was prepared to help Aqing publicize her great achievements.
True Achievements——
"The horseshoe, a small piece of iron, has reduced the damage to our war horses by several times."
"Salt and sugar production not only provide for the people's livelihood, but also increase taxes for the court."
"This miraculous anti-inflammatory drug has saved countless lives."
Wang Qi began to list everything Gu Qingcheng had done over the years.
It was not brought up in public, or announced publicly, so people didn't take it seriously.
They just knew that Gu's Aqing was powerful, a little girl who was more powerful than many young men.
But when Wang Qi listed them one by one, everyone suddenly realized:
Is Gu's Aqing really that powerful?
"And Lingnan, originally a wild and smoky land, was transformed into a paradise in the southern border by the lord after spending ten years to govern it."
Wang Qi did not forget Gu Qingcheng's most important achievement - expanding territory.
Some people in later generations concluded that China also has its own political correctness.
That is to expand territory.
As long as a king can do this, even if he has shortcomings of one kind or another during his reign, he will still be a wise ruler and his name will be recorded in history.
Lingnan has indeed always been the land of the Celestial Empire, but due to various harsh conditions, it has never been developed or fully utilized.
In the eyes of many court officials and common people, it was still a barbaric place.
There are also some lands on the Lingnan border that have long been occupied by certain generals.
They declared themselves kings and broke away from the Celestial Empire.
After Gu Qingcheng went to Lingnan, he vigorously developed the area and took back all these territories.
For example, Jiaozhou is no longer Jiaozhi, but is still Jiaozhou.
Just by taking back the territory and expanding the borders, Gu Qingcheng has the absolute qualifications to reach the top.
Some old stubborn people: ...
This is indeed an indelible achievement of Gu Aqing.
But no matter how powerful she is, she is still a woman!
"So what if you're a woman? The Lord has accomplished something that all of you grown men haven't done. Don't you feel ashamed? Instead, you're still finding fault with the Lord."
"You're even suggesting that the Lord 'give way to the wise'? What wise man are you giving way to? A 'wise man' who only has two pounds of extra meat on his bottom, but has accomplished nothing?"
Wang Qi directly put the blade of the machete against the neck of an old stubborn man.
He spoke with ease while exerting a little effort.
Squeak!
The blade was too sharp. Just a slight touch cut the skin on the neck and caused blood to seep out.
“…”
The old stubborn man was so frightened that he turned pale and trembled.
If he hadn't still had some "guts" and could barely control his bladder, he would probably have peed himself on the spot out of fear.
"You guys, are you cheap?"
"As the patriarch of the Gu family, Lord You'an fully supports Gu Qing. What are you, a bunch of irrelevant outsiders, doing here?"
"Why, do you have to use this method to show off your integrity and uprightness?"
Wang Qi bent down slightly, leaned close to the old stubborn man's ear, and cursed him with disdain.
He really looked down on these useless people who were only good at talking.
When the Northern Dynasty's cavalry approached Jiangling, these people were so frightened that they could only "negotiate peace."
The only thing that is tough is his mouth.
If you can't protect the country and the people, you can only talk rotten and smelly nonsense.
Wang Qi looked down on these people and would not give them any face.
The old stubborn man was frightened and angry, and his thin body was shaking violently.
"Want to die? Want to leave a good reputation as a loyal minister in the history books?"
"I can help you!"
After Wang Qi finished speaking, he was ready to take action.
He was a man who dared to kill even the "emperor" in public, and was destined to be infamous for all eternity.
Now it's just a matter of killing a few stubborn and conservative old guys, and he doesn't feel any pressure or guilt at all.
Besides, it was he who went crazy and killed people, not the woman who sat in a high position.
She was pushed onto the throne by traitors, not by killing innocent people and seizing the throne herself.
Her reputation will not be tainted by any stain...
