The emperor was frustrated and wronged. He had a thousand words to say in his heart, but he couldn't say it.
It's the first time someone has been forcibly pressed a pot on his head. However, he knows that he has never done these things, but no one believes it.
The general situation is over. Ji Changze first throws out all the evil things he has done. Now, he has no trust value in everyone's mind.
Whether he admits it or not, the pot must be buckled on his head.
It has always been wrong to others, but after being wronged once, the emperor knew how uncomfortable it was.
Now that the general trend is over, he argued several times and saw no response, so he was also discouraged and stopped trying his best to refute.
Even because now that he has really torn his face, he can see that Ji Changze hates himself for being into the bones, and he will definitely not end up with him. He is not so scared.
"So."
The emperor, whose hair was already gray, was very haggard due to several blows, and the crown on his head was slightly slanted, and some scattered and broken hair hung aside, looking like a qualified loser.
He smiled sarcastically, with the pride of being an emperor and his disdain for Ji Changze, a rebellious official: "What do you mean by this? Take these, a pile of tattered paper, old things, and use them to accuse me of how faint. Wudao, how can you be jealous of the virtuous, and then sit in this position openly?"
"Ha ha ha ha ha..."
He leaned on his dragon chair, his smile was full of disdain. He smiled and stood up suddenly, his voice amplified, and he stretched out his fingers to the person standing below. His movements were so great that he made the crooked emperor's crown. Falling to the ground:
"No matter how high-sounding you say!!! No matter how forgivable, the rebels are the rebels, even if you step on me in the mud, it is still a rebellion and treason, everyone will be blamed!!! "
In the silent hall, Ji Changze smiled.
"Your Majesty's memory is really bad. Didn't the minister have said that? The minister, he doesn't want to rebel."
Master Ji, who said that he did not want to rebel, walked towards the position of the dragon chair step by step after saying this.
He walked extremely steadily, stepped up the steps, just in full view, walked to the dragon chair representing the emperor's power. When the emperor was vigilant and trying to hide his fear, Ji Changze squatted down when the courtiers standing underneath could not help holding their breath. , Picked up the hair crown.
Then, the hair crown was gently put back on top of the stiff emperor's head.
The emperor didn't want to show timidity, but because of his greedy nature and fear of death, he still didn't dare to move, letting Ji Changze just put the crown on his head.
In the ear, Ji Changze's gentle and gentle voice: "How did you think that the minister would rebel?"
Need to think about it?
You have come to force the palace with an army.
Whether it is the emperor or the ministers, at this moment, under Ji Changze's repeated denial of rebellion, they feel that their brains are a little insufficient.
Are you still insisting not to rebel after all?
What does he want to do?
They soon knew what Ji Changze wanted to do.
Master Ji kindly helped the embarrassed Majesty tidy up his appearance after finishing the hair crown.
"The minister said that he must return an innocent master."
"If the minister rebels and pushes your majesty down and sits on the throne, and then clarifies the name of the master, will the world really believe that the master is innocent?"
Ji Changze slowly walked to the dragon chair, and stopped beside the stiff emperor, with a low voice like a demon whispering:
"They will think that the minister is only helping the master to rehabilitate because of the master-disciple relationship. Even if the master is really innocent, and the relationship between the master and the master is involved, they will not believe this innocence. This is not what the minister wants. , Otherwise, in the past sixteen years, the minister has had a lot of opportunities to quietly let His Majesty return to the West, why has it been delayed until now?"
The emperor shook his body following these words.
Yes, for the past 16 years, Ji Changze has been his confidant, and he has countless opportunities for revenge, so why have to wait for these 16 years?
"You, what are you going to do!"
"What about the minister? The minister doesn't want much, but he wants Master's innocence to return to his body. There is a bit of doubt, a bit of stigma, that is not innocent!!"
"After many years of conspiracy to this day, what the minister wants is when your majesty was reigning, he personally admitted that it was your fault at the beginning. Only you, the person who instigated my master into treason, overturned this old case. I will believe it! Only when my master is a clear name can I return to the sky!"
The emperor's eyes were bloodshot, and his lips trembled and he couldn't speak.
Fortunately, Ji Changze didn't need him to speak either.
He walked slowly to the pen and ink that had been thrown down by the emperor before, picked them up one by one and placed them where they should be, spread the paper, dipped the pen and ink, and handed them to the emperor.
His face was still stained with a few drops of Zhou Ru's blood, and the blood fell on the right cheek. With the looming smile, the visual effect was a bit like a dimple, but this innocent "dimple" appeared on Ji Changze's face and looked a little frightening. .
"Your Majesty, please write down your sins."
The emperor shook his hands and refused to take the pen.
"I, I'm not wrong...it's them, they formed a party for private purposes..."
If he really wrote an edict to sin against himself, the people, courtiers, and even his history books a hundred years later would treat him and describe him.
He spent his entire life trying to keep this mask, and he did not hesitate to kill the veterans and harm the loyal ones. Now he has to splash ink on the mask with his own hands. How can he do it?
Seeing that he didn't cooperate, Ji Changze still smiled, slowly placed the pen, took off the hairpin on his head, and pressed it down. The sharp blade under the hairpin was exposed, and the sharp edge was aimed at the person on the dragon chair.
"Your Majesty, if the imperial edict cannot be written, the minister does not mind writing a blood edict."
If everything is a dead end, and there is no way to go but to wait for death, some fearlessness will inevitably arise.
But if Ji Changze gave a life and a dead end, and now he is forced by a dead end, those fearless and fearless will fade away with the desire to live.
The emperor's eyes gradually moistened, and he shook his hands and slowly took the pen.
The pen slowly dropped in front of him, but he lingered on the paper.
"I and I were also deceived... This is not my fault. I chased Li Qing for the title, shared the temple, and let him receive the incense... Ji Qing, I have treated you so much these years, so you let me go. ,what?"
When he prayed for his life and dignity, his gray hair and wrinkled face looked like an ordinary old man.
It's a pity that Ji Changze doesn't eat this set.
"Okay."
He agreed, and after seeing the emperor's surprised expression on his face, he added: "If your majesty can hit the pillar and die and then come back to life, by the way, bring the minister's master up, and the minister will follow your majesty."
The expression on the emperor's face was suddenly green and green, which was very beautiful.
He gritted his teeth, the dangling pen tip finally took the ink and stood on the edict.
A criminal edict was written under the supervision of Ji Changze, and the content was clear, specific, and clear. He admitted his crime and also showed the innocence of Lord Li.
After stopping the writing, the emperor felt torment again in his heart and breathed a sigh of relief.
With some naive thoughts that were not in line with his past practices, he has now fulfilled Ji Changze's purpose, this person should stop.
Ji Changze stopped, that would be weird.
He satisfactorily inspected his own sins, and said lightly: "Your Majesty, choose one to pass the position."
The emperor stared at him incredulously: "What do you mean?!!!"
After the punishment of self-crimination was reached, Ji Changze was too lazy to reluctantly act like a reasonable minister, sneered and output:
"The minister is also thinking about your majesty. Now your face has been pulled off, and your true face has been exposed. How to frame Zhongliang, how cruel and cruel, how jealous of the virtuous can make even his own sons jealous, everyone knows, it's all like this. , Do you still have the court, see these courtiers?"
"As long as there is a little bit of shame, I am afraid that he will hide his face and run away. Your Majesty can stick to it so far without shame, so greedy for power, even to the point where he doesn't even want his face, the minister is extremely admired, but you still Think about whether the courtiers will have nausea and vomiting when facing your shameless and disgusting old face next time. Everyone will not look good at that time."
Emperor: "...you, you are presumptuous!"
Ji Changze didn't raise his eyelids, and continued to say:
"What's more, your Majesty, we all know what your situation is. It is an insult to say that you are innocent. You don't have the ability to handle the affairs of the government, and you don't have the function of coordinating the courtiers. Besides eating, drinking and having fun, you are spending extravagantly every day. , Your greatest dedication during the many years of your reign is to have a few princes, but if you think about it carefully, this is actually more to be grateful to the mothers and concubines of your highnesses, otherwise if your highnesses follow your majesty, then our country will not be subjugated. Far."
After speaking of his long list, the emperor's face can no longer be described as green.
Green and white, unable to say a word for a long time.
In the court hall, the emperor was worthless and even posted money. The civil and military officials watched from below, which was the first in history.
Unfortunately, the emperor was going to die of anger, but he couldn't help it.
Otherwise, choose a prince to inherit the throne, or be killed on the spot.
No matter how frustrated in my heart, naturally I still have to choose to survive.
After the emperor's anger passed, he regained some sense, and sneered in his heart.
Let him abdicate to his son?
Ji Changze's just now really made him feel that this person was very scheming, and he took ten steps one step at a time, but now it seems that he is still not courageous enough.
If he directly killed the royal man himself today and replaced him, he might still be the emperor for a few days.
But Ji Changze actually let him abdicate to his son.
Except for the boss, his sons are all obedient and obedient, and they always follow his wishes and stay in the house obediently.
Choose whatever you want, and you will definitely be filial to him.
Even if today he let his son ascend to the throne under Ji Changze's coercion and abdicated himself, his filial sons will definitely not control the power until today's worries are relieved.
After all, since the experience of the eldest son, the emperor has consciously learned a lesson, and taught the remaining sons that "you are not my good son" education.
Although they are princes, they have not learned any knowledge about what the emperor should do.
In this case, even if the throne is handed over to them, as long as they give an order, they will still return this position in good order.
While the emperor was confident, he couldn't help being proud of his own foresight.
Because of the confidence in his heart, this time he did not procrastinate, but happily agreed.
It's just that none of the four princes went to court. This was naturally the "big prince's sequelae" left by the emperor. The prince then learned to go to court when he was old.
The result was too good to be praised one-sidedly, hitting the mediocre heart of the emperor, and this brought disaster.
Because the emperor who learned this experience simply cancelled this rule and raised his sons like pets.
He was about to open his mouth and order his filial sons to come over, when others saw Ji Changze clap his hands.
The four princes followed the soldiers along the road straight in.
The emperor shook his heart.
Ji Changze was actually prepared early, and even his sons were arranged early by this rebellious courtier.
But the panic in my heart only came out for a moment, and then he swallowed again.
Whatever you want to do, anyway, no matter which son this throne is given to, it will be royal. When these sons have no ability to manage the court, no one will be able to rob him of his position.
Ji Changze didn't pay attention to what he thought, only watching these princes enter the hall, as if they had entered some horrible place, they shrank their necks and did not dare to move.
Yang said: "His Royal Highness has also listened to the whole process. You should know what is going on now, and we won't have much to explain to you."
"Now, it just depends on who your Majesty wants to choose."
The emperor abdicated to his son was actually carried out on such an occasion. Even though many people present felt absurd in their hearts, they still fell honestly on the heavenly father and son, only to see who the emperor chose.
Anyway, the result of choosing everyone is the same, the emperor did not carefully choose so carefully, after deliberation, he chose the second prince he felt the most filial.
It's just that none of the people present except Ji Changze expected that when he opened his mouth to let the second prince inherit the throne, the second prince turned pale and immediately knelt down.
"Father, my son only loves architecture, and he didn't dare to think about the throne. He also asked his father to choose someone else."
No one wants to send the throne to the door, but he pushes it out anxiously.
There are such things in the world.
As soon as these words came out, all eight adults dropped their jaws in their hearts.
The emperor's self-confident expression naturally froze.
He never expected that this most obedient and filial son would actually reject the throne.
This is the throne.
There was a trace of anger in his heart, but because Ji Changze was still standing by, the emperor forced himself to put away these emotions that shouldn't be expressed, and looked at the three princes.
"The third child, I will abdicate to you."
The third prince was standing quietly, his face changed a lot when he heard this, and he was like the second emperor, and immediately refused: "Father, the son has no abilities and can't take on the big responsibility. Please also ask the father to take his life back."
The second prince who refused.
The look on the emperor's face was very ugly.
"Fourth."
Puff--
Kneeled another one.
Even the youngest five princes hurriedly refused when the throne was about to reach their heads.
Four princes, four refused.
The emperor's first reaction was not that these sons were not at all motivated, but that Ji Changze must have threatened them.
This is the throne.
If you can, who doesn't want it.
What's more, they are still princes. Don't the princes naturally yearn for the throne when they are born, and use all means to fight for it?
Even if they are docile and don't fight for it, they won't be sent to the throne but won't sit down.
Ji Changze naturally saw what the emperor was thinking.
He sneered: "Your Majesty is really cheeky as always. It is clearly his own sin. Now several of his Highness refuse to inherit the throne. His Majesty only wants to blame others, and has never thought about who caused the scene today."
"His Royal Highness has never been taught seriously since childhood, and has never been exposed to government affairs. The second Highness is the oldest, and can hold grandsons in the next two years, but has never held a position in the court, so he has been raised. For many years, a few of your highnesses were not like your majesty who only cared about their own happiness and regardless of the life or death of others, naturally they were unwilling to sit on the throne to harm others and themselves."
Ever since he got the edict, Ji Changze seemed to have turned on some terrible switch, talking to the emperor about flowers, guns and sticks, and he literally carried out the three words "tearing his face" to the end.
By the way, the emperor's face turned green, but he dared not say anything.
He hated it to death, for one moment he hated Ji Changze for forcing him to do so, and another moment he hated these sons for their stupid brains, and he couldn't even see such a simple expedient.
"You have seen it too. It's not that I don't want to abdicate, but that they don't want the throne."
The emperor said that he was innocent, and it was really a lifelike old white lotus.
Ji Changze smiled at him mildly: "Your Majesty is too old to throw his mind and even remember? Don't you still have a prince?"
As soon as these words came out, the emperor's face changed drastically.
"What do you mean!"
"Since the other His Highnesses do not want to sit on the throne, please invite your Highness who is willing to sit on the throne."
The emperor's complexion changed several times.
He didn't dare to refuse directly, so he found an excuse.
"The eldest prince has been imprisoned for many years, and he doesn't understand the current situation. If I abdicate to him now, I am afraid his younger brothers will not be convinced..."
This was a subconscious push to find a reason.
As soon as the words came out, the princes who were still standing like quails immediately became energetic.
The second prince raised his head and his eyes were bright: "Father, the children are surrendered. If the emperor's brother is enthroned, the children will be convinced by a hundred, and they will definitely help them well."
The third prince said with excitement: "The sons and ministers are also average, and they must do their best to the big emperor brother."
The four princes and the five princes followed up: "Exactly, please rest assured, my father."
The emperor almost didn't vomit a mouthful of blood.
He can rest assured, he can rest assured.
What's the matter with these sons? They are not competitive. The eldest brother wants to sit on the throne. Even if they don't express their intention to grab the throne, at least don't wait for the support of both hands and feet.
The prince who had fought all the way from a group of princes back then could not figure out why his sons were so different in style.
Not being able to push the pot to his son, the emperor turned his gaze to the courtier again.
"You Aiqing, I'm afraid I don't want to accept the eldest prince as the emperor, right?"
Courtiers: "..."
How do you say this.
Their requirements are actually not high, as long as the person enthroned as the emperor is not the one currently in power.
The prince has a good reputation. Since what happened back then was framed and the other princes were also very supportive, then they naturally...very wanted to agree.
There was silence, no one responded to the emperor, and everyone said in silence that they also agreed with the emperor's supremacy.
The emperor vomited to death.
When he was in office, he had to face all kinds of dangers and obstacles, and he had to deal with the stumbling of his brothers and the doubts of courtiers.
But why is it the turn of the prince?
It's a look that everyone is looking forward to.
The prince who was originally jealous of this son was sour in his heart at this moment.
When Ji Changze said he asked him to call the eldest prince quickly, the emperor, who had been very cooperative for his life, became tough for the first time.
"The great prince disobeys and must not be the king."
"I would rather die than declare him to re-enter the court!!"
These words were loud and loud, showing how determined his determination is.
Even Ji Changze couldn't help but nodded in admiration: "Your Majesty is really a hero, and Taishan collapsed in front of him without changing his face."
After a stick of incense.
The prince who had not seen the sun outside for a long time was declared into the hall.
The emperor with a knife on his neck sat in the same place with sweat and resentment.
Although he was forced to call the eldest prince, in his heart, after accepting this reality, he also brought a glimmer of expectation.
Was imprisoned for sixteen years.
The eldest prince's mental outlook could not be okay. What those people praised that day, what a bright moon, what a gentleman is like jade, was detained for a full sixteen years, and did not eat a good meal in sixteen years. People who have a good cup are all jokes.
Comparing time, it will surely polish this son who once had him compared to the utterly embarrassed son into an embarrassing appearance.
As for the other sons, they may not want to be in position, but facing the big emperor brother who has not seen him in 16 years, are they not uneasy or unfamiliar?
It's better to be in charge of nothing, than to let a brother who has no emotional foundation to be in charge.
When he meets this eldest son, he must be able to sit and watch a joke...
The emperor thought so, and then met the eyes of the big prince, who had a rosy face, fair skin, and a tall figure, who looked even a little fatter than he remembered.
emperor:"..."
what happened.
After sixteen years of being deprived of food and clothing, why did he gain weight?
It's ok.
He comforted himself.
The royal family has no affection, and the more powerful the eldest prince is, the more frustrated the other salted fish sons might be.
What do your best to assist.
What admire and convincing.
Brothers of the same father and mother may not be able to do it, let alone the royal half-brothers.
Just after comforting myself, I saw that my sons were like chickens seeing an old hen, their eyes lit up, and they quickly hid behind the eldest prince.
"Brother Big Emperor!"
"Brother Emperor, you are here."
After hiding, they all looked reliant, looked over with a little timidity, and then hurriedly hid again.
emperor:"..."
Ji Changze added fuel and jealousy to the side: "I really envy your majesty, look at your children, brothers, friends and respectfulness, all of you support your majesty."
emperor:"..."
His courtiers, his sons, all turned to the eldest son he had been jealous of for many years.
Why! What is it!
Ji Changze seemed to see his doubts, and still poked a knife beside him: "Thanks to your majesty, you are worried that other princes threaten your status like the eldest prince, so they have developed such cowardly temperaments. They are not. Do you rely more on His Highness?"
"Your Majesty, for the sake of your majesty's success, you did not hesitate to sacrifice yourself, treat other princes harshly, and ruin the government, and now your majesty can be supported and enthroned naturally."
actually...
Was it actually caused by him?
In the end, this son was still taking the place, and all the causal cycle was actually because of himself.
The emperor's eyes widened and coughed violently, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Ji Changze: "Hey! Your Majesty is moved to vomit blood!"
"Tsk tut, it's really fatherly love."
"Father's love is like a mountain!"
