"What else can you ask for?"

Zhou Tian, ​​who was above him, was already sullen in his heart.

However, as a generation of emperors, he has already reached a state of managing his emotions. He looked at Zhou Zheng and asked calmly.

He also wanted to know what more this idiot, the prince he once disliked the most, and the prince he disliked the most, wanted.

Hearing the voice above, the ministers did not dare to say anything.

"Kill Concubine Shu!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

No one could have imagined that Zhou Zheng's request at this time was not gold, silver, jewelry, or a powerful position, but actually wanted to kill Concubine Shu!

Since the last time Concubine Shu was imprisoned by Zhou Tian for arbitrarily discussing government affairs and framing the crown prince, there has been no relevant news.

Everyone knew that if anyone else dared to slander the prince, they would die regardless of their status.

But the Holy Emperor just sent Concubine Shu into the heavenly prison without taking any clear measures to deal with her. They knew in their hearts that the Emperor still cared about Concubine Shu.

After all, this was Zhou Tian's most beloved and pampered concubine.

Since ancient times, heroes have struggled with beauty, and even Zhou Tian, ​​who is known as the Perfect Emperor, cannot avoid it.

Since all the ministers can guess the holy intention, naturally no one dares to make an issue on this matter.

It is conceivable that when Zhou Zheng went to court this time, he actually made such a request in front of the ministers.

For a moment, even Liu Fu and other people in the city could not help but take a breath of cold air at this moment!

Zhou Zheng, does he really not care about everything? ?

quiet!

The entire Chongde Hall was deathly silent!

The officials were terrified, and no one dared to speak at this time.

Zhou Tian, ​​who was above him, could no longer conceal the anger in his heart, his face was dark, and his fists were clenched involuntarily.

"I will handle this matter myself."

Suppressing the resentment in his heart, Zhou Tian would have wished to scold Zhou Zheng right now and dethrone him as the crown prince if he had not taken into account the wisdom of his generation of holy kings.

Zhou Zheng felt funny when he saw that Zhou Tian still wanted to protect Concubine Shu.

You actually want to keep a woman like this who has cuckolded you, or a woman who has done something unethical?

Either you have that kind of cuckold plot, or you have a psychological problem.

Zhou Zheng was talking in his heart, but his words showed no sign of softening.

"Father, if the harem disrupts the government, it is a capital crime."

"This rule has been set since the founding of our country by Emperor Gaozu of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"If future generations violate this ancestral precept, they will be expelled from the ancestral hall and never enter the imperial mausoleum!"

Zhou Zheng looked stern and showed no fear.

He raised his head and looked into Zhou Tian's eyes, his eyes burning and his attitude firm!

And these words were like the power of thunder, exploding throughout the entire hall.

Even Zhou Tian couldn't sit still, because this already involved forgetting the ancestors and deviating from the ancestral system!

Once he is labeled as such, not to mention Zhou Tian's always flaunting his loyalty and filial piety, even those foolish kings cannot afford to be reviled by future generations!

"Your Highness, you are so brave!"

Liu Fu and other ministers also stood up quickly at this time. When their expressions changed drastically, they yelled at Zhou Zheng!

"Master Liu is the head of a hundred officials. Isn't what I just said true?"

"As the prime minister, it is your duty to lead hundreds of officials and assist the emperor in governing the country!"

"Concubine Shu slanders me by slandering her own innocence. Where does this put the face of my royal family?"

"The harem is so involved in politics, and has no regard for ethics. Even if it means death, it will not be an exaggeration!"

"The Prime Minister has already committed a dereliction of duty by not enforcing the law and not admonishing His Majesty to kill Concubine Shu. Is it possible that he is making the same mistake again and again now?!"

Zhou Zheng directed his attack at Liu Fu!

He has never been afraid of a verbal fight!

After being shouted at by Zhou Zheng, Liu Fu turned pale, staggered, and even showed signs of collapsing.

He is a dignified prime minister, the head of hundreds of officials. He knows the government well and understands the heart of the Holy Emperor. He has been like a fish in water over the years. Who dares to contradict him like this?

But in front of Zhou Zheng, he was forced and humiliated in public again and again!

But it's not over yet.

"You say I am bold?!"

"Okay, today I am here for my great Zhou Dynasty, so why not be bold once?!"

Zhou Zheng turned around and angrily scolded Liu Bu.

"Shang Shu of the Ministry of Rites, do you know your guilt?!"

"The Ministry of Rites is in charge of a series of major events in the court such as rituals and music, sacrifices, enshrining Zen, and imperial examinations. The matter of concubine Shu involves many things, goes against the ancestral precepts, and is not tolerated by the royal family. If it is imitated by the people of the world, I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, firmly believe that Where will benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust be?!”

"Shang Shu of the Ministry of Punishment, do you know the crime?!"

"The Ministry of Punishment is in charge of many cases in the Zhou Dynasty. What it wants to do is to clarify the canonical laws and maintain the fairness of the laws. It has been more than a month since the case of Concubine Shu, and there has been no movement from the Ministry of Punishment, let alone advice to His Majesty!"

"All the ministers present, do you know your guilt!?"

"You all call yourself the pillars of the imperial court and my ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

"It's really funny!"

"You know this, but you pretend to be deaf and mute, allowing the selfishness of the Holy Admiral to run rampant, and even disregarding the ancestral system and the law. Your intentions are to be punished!"

"What will future generations of historians record?"

"How will the public view it?"

"What will the surrounding nations think?!"

At this moment, Zhou Zheng spoke righteously and sternly, angrily rebuking the ministers!

Every word was sonorous and powerful, like the sound of a bell, echoing throughout the silent hall.

No one thought that Zhou Zheng would be so bold and bold as to dare to denounce all civil and military officials on his own!

But no one thought that this time Zhou Zheng stood on the commanding heights of morality and stood under the banner of the law. No matter whether the officials agreed or not, there was no way to refute it.

"I, Zhou Zheng, am an idiot and useless person in your eyes."

"Although I have the status of a prince, I have never been recognized by you, let alone the imperial court!"

"But I, Zhou Zheng, still know that I am from the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I am the legitimate son of the Holy Emperor!"

"I also know how to uphold the dignity of the legal system and the dignity of the ancestral system!"

"But what about you?!"

"Void and conceited, both sides have their own advantages! Flatter the superiors and the inferiors, and be exquisite in all directions!"

"It is a matter of eating the emperor's salary but not being loyal to the emperor!"

"You guys, are you ashamed or not?"

Zhou Zheng had a serious look on his face, and his voice became hoarse as he spoke.

With bulging blue veins on his face, he pointed at the officials and yelled curses!

He didn't care how many dynasties of elders were here, or whether the people present were civil servants or military generals, and he didn't care which prince's faction they belonged to. Everywhere he looked, he was filled with disdain!

"If I, Da Zhou, want to live forever in the world, I want to achieve great dominance!"

"Is it enough to just resist Daxia's invasion?"

"Can we do it just by marrying Dayuan!?"

"No!"

"None of these!"

"How can we be strong if our internal worries are not eliminated!?"

Zhou Zheng looked solemn and looked sad!

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being disrespectful today!"

"Even today, even if I fight to be deposed as the crown prince and risk being called a criminal by the world, I will still say it!"

"Your Majesty, please put national affairs first and the country and the country first!"

"Kill Concubine Shu!"
