Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Zhou Zheng looked at the ministers without hesitation.

Seeing Zhou Zheng's angry expression, everyone felt a little frightened.

However, even though Zhou Zheng was arrogant at this time, no one present dared to really say that he would kill Zhou Zheng.

Even though he was deposed as the crown prince, he was still the prince.

Without rebellion, who would dare to kill him without any shame!

Besides, the people present are all human beings. They know better than anyone else that whether it is Emperor Tianjing or the court, at most they will depose Zhou Zheng, but they will never kill him!

Not to mention Zhou Zheng's previous achievements in repelling Daxia and raising his national prestige, just completely conquering Xiang County and solving the Langteng tribe is an unparalleled achievement!

Killing Zhou Zheng would not convince the public, nor could it silence the Youyou public.

What's more, Zhou Zheng still has a trump card!

The Zhenbei Army has long lost its former courage, its strength has been greatly reduced, and its foundation has been shaken. However, it is still in the northern border, still guarding the throat of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there are still tens of thousands of people.

If Zhou Zheng is killed, who can guarantee that there will be no trouble in the north? ! Who can guarantee that King Zhenbei will not take desperate risks! ?

Besides, the attitude of the Yuan Dynasty is also worth pondering. After all, the words of Emperor Wanqing of the Yuan Dynasty that they would advance and retreat with Zhou Zheng are still vivid in their ears. How can they act recklessly? !

Taking a step back, Zhou Zheng still had three thousand elites standing outside the palace this time.

That was a real warrior who had fought many battles, an absolute elite. Even the bloody generals in the court who had experienced hundreds of battles were afraid of him!

If Zhou Zheng is desperate and gives an order, what impact will those absolutely loyal elites cause in Kyoto to cause chaos?

"They're just a bunch of cowards."

"If the Great Zhou Dynasty is such a coward, how can it confront the Great Xia Kingdom head-on, how can it fight against those treacherous people?"

However, he scolded everyone with just a few words. Seeing that these officials who usually held high positions were as silent as a chill, the sneer and ridicule on Zhou Zheng's face became more and more obvious.

But unfortunately, many courtiers present did not dare to refute.

Because what Zhou Zheng said is true.

Over the years, they have long been accustomed to bending down and flattering in the officialdom, and even more accustomed to being humble and groveling.

As long as they can get promoted and make a fortune, as long as they can protect their own interests, they don't care about anything, including their own dignity.

Today, Emperor Tianjing said that Zhou Zheng was deposed.

It was a fait accompli, and they didn't need to waste any more time on Zhou Zheng.

So what if Zhou Zheng scolds him harshly?

In the eyes of Liu Fu, Zhou Fan, Zhou Ting and others, the winner has been the king and the loser has been the enemy since ancient times. The fact is that Zhou Zheng was still defeated.

"I'm just looking for the last bit of dignity for myself."

"Calling everyone cowardly, aren't you being treated like a pawn yourself?"

"My father used your hands to frighten the Great Xia Kingdom and let you cut out King Runan's power, and even executed the third brother!"

"In this way, the really sad thing is not us, but you!"

Zhou Fan's peripheral vision fell on Zhou Zheng, and he muttered to himself.

And his words were also what the ministers were thinking.

Zhou Zheng's ability can be said to be second to none in the entire court. Even the eldest prince Zhou Fan and the second prince Zhou Ting have to admit that Zhou Zheng's personal brilliance is too great!

Even surpassed Emperor Tianjing, surpassed the emperors of the past dynasties!

But so what?

After all, it’s the moon in the mirror, and everything ends up being nothing but water in a bamboo basket.

"If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government. Your Highness should know this truth."

As a former prime minister, Liu Fu felt quite unhappy when he saw that Zhou Zheng was still so unscrupulous.

I feel depressed at the moment, but my heart is filled with joy.

It was in this hall that he was so angry that Zhou Zheng vomited blood and fainted.

Times have changed, and Liu Fu is still Liu Fu, and he is still the prime minister of the Zhou Dynasty!

But he, Zhou Zheng, was no longer Prince Zhou Zheng, but His Highness Zhou Zheng.

Even though the imperial edict has not yet been issued and has not been made public to the world, Liu Fu can no longer care so much.

"That's a good saying, if you're not in your position, you don't want to do what you want!"

"This is my Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Zhou Zheng's face was gloomy, he clenched his palms tightly, and the resentment on his face could no longer be concealed.

He looked around: "Today, I will remember your faces clearly one by one!"

"Remember your ugly face clearly!"

Under Zhou Zheng's indifferent words, no one dared to look at him wherever he looked, and all the officials bowed their heads.

"it is good!"

"At the very least, you still have a sense of shame."

"pity!"

"You who are in the main hall today are very human-like, but in my opinion, you are not worthy of being called a person with capital letters, let alone the name of an important minister!"

Finally, Zhou Zheng focused his gaze again.

The low voice was a little hoarse. He was not surprised by today's situation, but the reaction of the ministers, no one dared to stand up and speak out for him at this time, which really disappointed Zhou Zheng.

"Wait, I don't deserve to be a person with capital letters!?"

"May I ask, Your Highness, what is a person with capital letters?!"

It was unbearable, but the Minister of Rites still jumped out.

He wanted to hear what other tricks Zhou Zheng could come up with at this time!

"What is a human being?"

"Today, I will teach you another lesson and tell you what it means to be a real person!"

"Water and fire have energy but no life!"

“The plants and trees are living but ignorant!”

"Birds and beasts have knowledge but no sense!"

"Human beings have energy, life, knowledge and righteousness, so they are the most noble in the world!"

Zhou Zheng said in a deep voice, with a serious face and a loud voice!

And these words resounded throughout the hall, and for a moment, everyone present had complicated expressions!

There were many literati in the main hall. They heard the implication of Zhou Zheng's words. They looked ashamed, and the six ministers even blushed with shame.

But Zhou Zheng hasn’t finished speaking yet!

"What is righteousness?"

“Those who have little righteousness are friends and neighbors!”

"The great righteousness benefits the country and the people!"

"You guys, when you eat the king's salary, have you ever shared your worries for the king, have you ever benefited the country, have you ever brought benefits to the people?"

"No, none!"

"How can people like you be called people with capital letters!?"

"You are selfish, greedy, intrigues, cliques, and cliques, which are simply causing harm to the country and the people!"

"How are your actions different from those of birds and beasts?!"

"How is it different from an animal?!"

"To associate with you is simply a shame to this palace, and even more unfortunate to the Great Zhou Dynasty. It is the sorrow of our Great Zhou Dynasty!"

Zhou Zheng's words were sonorous, powerful, loud and deafening!

No one could have imagined that Zhou Zheng would be so unrestrained in the main hall!

But unfortunately, no one can refute, and no one dares to refute.

The ministers looked pale and bowed their heads in silence!

"enough!"

Finally, Emperor Tianjing spoke.

But this time, there was a hint of obvious sullenness in his voice!

Liu Fu and other ministers who had followed Emperor Tianjing for more than twenty years felt a strong sense of uneasiness!

When they looked at Zhou Zheng again from the corner of their eyes, the chill in their hearts became even stronger!

Because, what Zhou Zheng said just now was obviously meant for ministers like them.

But really, it was meant for Emperor Tianjing above!

He is using this special method to drive a wedge between the monarch and his ministers!

Once a gap occurs, what will happen to them in the future...

"Zhou Zheng, you are so cruel!"
