Chapter 1217 Disaster for the country and the people 22
Ying Mo spent a month in Zixiao Palace with Chu Yun.
In this month, countless petitions calling for Chu Yun's execution were piled up.
Chu Yun directly asked people to move outside the palace to burn one portion.
A group of angry ministers howled at home.
One month later.
After the wounds were almost healed, a group of courtiers knelt at the gate of the palace and begged the demon concubine to be killed.
He also threatened that if the emperor continued to indulge in government affairs, he would be killed in front of the palace gate.
Chu Yun immediately ordered people to set up a bronze bell wall, which was extremely strong.
Several ministers gritted their teeth and survived.
But he was seriously injured and fell into coma.
Those who don't have the guts to hit the wall will be slapped with 50 bucks each on the grounds of provocation and trouble. Those who are guilty of serious crimes will be slapped again.
Those who are guilty of minor crimes will be punished with a cane of 20 to serve as a warning to others.
The next day, a locust plague broke out in the south of Daying, which had not been seen in thirty years.
Chu Yun promised to win the last court.
However, the dragon chair was changed to a left and right golden double dragon chair.
A person who has been beaten twice in a row with a fifty-pound board cannot go to court even if he uses a lift.
The minister who was beaten 20 times insisted on going to court lying down despite his injuries.
The whole court was miserable.
Facing the half-empty court hall.
Chu Yun took the opportunity to put his men in vacant positions.
Since then, half of the court fell into Chu Yun's hands.
The courtiers lying on the ground were so angry that they vomited blood.
"Since you insist on setting foot in the court, please tell me how to provide relief to the victims while ensuring military supplies and food and grass. Now that the national treasury is empty and all countries have been offended except the winning country."
"The Emperor has made it clear that useless people must not appear in the court. If the Queen cannot solve this matter, no one in the world will agree."
"If the emperor wants to be partial, I will fear that the world will be in chaos and the emperor's power will be lost."
Ying Mo has basically given up struggling.
Xia Qingyan threatened him with Tangtang, which was equivalent to grabbing his weak point.
Facing the life and death of thousands of his people, he didn't feel uncomfortable or entangled.
But he couldn't let go of Tangtang.
Furthermore, facing a witch, he didn't think anything he could do could turn things around.
Just when Ying Mo was about to speak for Chu Yun.
But he heard a cold snort from the woman next to him.
"Isn't this a simple thing?"
"The treasury can't take it out, but you adults can take it out."
"You all come from well-known families, and your family has been running for hundreds of years. The emperor is so kind that he not only gives you a way out, but also allows you to continue serving as officials in the court. It is time for you to serve the court."
"Since you are all so anxious, please take out one hundred thousand taels of silver each and hand it over within one month, otherwise we will kill you without mercy."
"...."
The eyes of the courtiers lying on the ground almost popped out of their heads.
His neck was tilted back, and the veins on his head were exposed.
"Your Majesty, where did I get the one hundred thousand taels of silver from? She is talking nonsense. Please tell me, Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen has been an honest official throughout his life and has never been greedy. I really can't show that."
"Your Majesty, there are senior ministers and junior ministers. After one month, there will be no surplus at all. This is to force the ministers to death. I beg the Emperor to tell you personally."
"...."
If we talk about other aspects, Ying Mo is on the side of his ministers.
But at this time, he squinted his eyes and said nothing.
He initially ousted the Darong royal family from power in order to stabilize Da Ying as quickly as possible so that he could gain a firm foothold in this troubled world.
Therefore, he not only did not hold the officials accountable for their surrender, but also entrusted them with important responsibilities.
How noble and upright is a person who can surrender easily?
Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to say that each of these aristocratic families is extremely rich.
The treasury is not rich.
These people didn't say that each of them would pay one hundred thousand silver.
