Chapter 370 The emperor actually has the intention of becoming an emperor?
It can be seen that this guy has probably lived a peaceful life for too long, and the wine, sex, money and power in the wealthy city of Beijing have hollowed out his original heroic spirit.
He'd drunk too much wine and had lost his mind. He dared to speak so brazenly in public, and his brother-in-law was so angry that he punched the bastard in the head from behind.
With a bang, the already weak Xining Bo, who was already strong on the outside, was knocked down by Wuyi Bo with a punch, and then Shen Erhuai smiled firmly without changing his expression.
"I've heard from my sister a long time ago that my brother-in-law hasn't been feeling well lately. Who would have thought he would fall asleep right here in the court? I'm sorry for being disrespectful in front of the emperor. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
He knelt down and kowtowed to the emperor with great humility. After a few kowtows, a bruise appeared on his forehead. Li Chengxiu quickly asked him to stop.
"Uncle Shen, stop taking these pills. Your brain will go crazy if you keep taking them! I know Sun Haoyang's father is not in good health. Why don't you take him home and let him rest for a while? Come back when he's rested, how about that?"
"…Your Majesty, he shouldn't be seriously ill…"
"Nonsense! He's fainted from exhaustion, isn't that serious? I'm telling you, don't be polite to me. I'm not the kind of emperor who only wants horses and cattle but no courtiers.
Take the Earl of Xining back safely. I have ordered him to go home and have a good rest. This is the imperial decree!
"Wuyi Bo, if you don't appreciate it, I will think it's wrong. Do you look down on me, the emperor, and don't take my words seriously?"
Although most of Li Laosi's words were useless nonsense, he now called himself "Zhen" (Imperial Emperor), and what he said was an imperial decree. Who dared to disobey? Could it be that he was planning to be disloyal to the emperor and patriotic, and wanted to eat from a separate pot?
"I dare not! My loyalty to Your Majesty is evident to all, even to the late Emperor! I will take Sun Hanyong back with me immediately. When he can recover is entirely up to you, Your Majesty!"
Fortunately, Wuyibo was smart enough to express his loyalty in a timely manner. Then, amid the emperor's mysterious smile, he grabbed his damned idiot brother-in-law and ran away without looking back.
The annoying fly was finally taken away, and the emperor, feeling that the clearing was successful, nodded with great satisfaction. He raised his chin arrogantly towards Ji Houzi, oh no, Prime Minister Ji.
Keep going, don’t stop, I love watching!
This time, not only Ji Xun was stunned for a moment, but all the civil and military officials in the court looked towards the emperor in surprise.
No, with just a few words, the Earl of Xining was kicked out of the court?
When did the Roe Deer Emperor learn this kind of imperial mentality that is so low-key?
Which powerful person taught the pig to climb trees?
Several important officials of the dynasty who had been ruthlessly brought down by the job of imperial tutor all looked at the weird emperor who had ruined their reputation in the education field with a look of surprise on their faces, and looked at their colleagues around them with great suspicion.
Finally, all the looks of sudden enlightenment were given to the Taifu, Qin Zhenning, who was standing quietly on the side.
It’s not easy to be the Minister of Personnel.
It can be said that his hard work is of great significance!
Old Qin held his head high and chest out elegantly, neither humble nor arrogant. The beard that had just grown around his lips concealed his achievements and fame.
This pretentious demeanor made Old Jiang, who was standing beside him, curl his lips. As expected, when there was nothing serious, he always disliked this old white-faced man.
Duke Lingguo coughed vigorously, drawing everyone's attention, then he took a quick step forward and spoke.
"Your Majesty, I also think what the Minister of Rites said is correct!
You don't need to look at others, just look at my family. I, Old Jiang, didn't take any concubines. All my children are legitimate. Regardless of whether they are promising or not, they were all raised safely and soundly.
For those of you who have second, third, or even more concubines in your family, who can dare to stand up and say with confidence that there has never been a child who died for no reason in your backyard?
Then I want to ask you, how did all those children die? Don't you have any idea?
So don't say that taking a concubine is for the purpose of procreating offspring. Taking a concubine is fundamentally for the purpose of satisfying a man's own lust! This is indeed a very bad thing for Dayu, which is in urgent need of increasing its population!
Therefore, I, the Duke, agree with the Minister of Rites! I am done.
After Jiang Huailiang stopped talking, Zhang Jingguang, who always followed his footsteps, was the first to jump out to support him.
"Duke Ling is right. Old Zhang, I also agree with the Minister of Rites!"
He had no plans to keep a concubine anyway. How much would that cost? If he had the money, wouldn't he save it and buy some jewelry and clothes for his wife and children? Why give it away cheaply to outsiders?
When Weiwu Hou Qiao Yunhai saw that even his father-in-law, the emperor, had come out in support, how could his uncle be in trouble? Regardless of whether this marriage law was beneficial to him or not, he had to stand firmly with the emperor's nephew at this time!
"This old minister also agrees with the Minister of Rites' proposal. What Prime Minister Ji said is absolutely reasonable! Since this marriage law has so many benefits for Dayu's future, why shouldn't we establish it?
If any of you dare to jump out to stop us again, you are disloyal to the emperor, unpatriotic, uncaring about the people, and unconcerned about future generations. You are the ones who lack virtue!
My dear, the late emperor's brother-in-law, these people are all evil, please find some time to come back and take a look at him in the evening..."
Isn't it said that nephews resemble their uncles? Doesn't this reveal the root cause of Li Laosi's limited knowledge? The Marquis of Weiwu himself was a true warrior, so how could his nephew be any more educated?
Sure enough, the emperor sitting on top nodded in agreement.
"Uncle, you're right! Remember to burn some incense and talk to my father, and ask him to come back soon to look at the whole court. If there's anyone who doesn't want to go with me, then let them go with my father!"
Fuck, you are lacking in virtue...
Ahem, the person I am scolding is Marquis Weiwu!!!
Some people who were almost morally broken and lost their composure quickly shifted their angry eyes from the emperor to Qiao Yunhai.
In response to this, Lao Qiao said he didn't feel any pain or itch.
If you want to look at them, go ahead and take a look at my new boots. Aren’t they better looking than yours?
On the military side, a leader came out to take the blame, while on the civil side, Lao Qin and Lao Chu calmly stood in the front row holding their tablets.
"Your Majesty, I agree with the Minister of Rites' proposal. The marriage law will definitely benefit Dayu more than harm it currently does!"
At this time, we, as officials of Dayu, should abandon our concubines for the greater good and shoulder the historical responsibility that we should shoulder for Dayu's long-term foundation!"
As soon as the eloquent Minister of Personnel opened his mouth, he elevated the purpose of the matter and brought it to another new height.
