Chapter 875 Unlimited Power
Hahaha!
...In the main hall of Liangzhu Palace, King Xinshan looked at Wu Qi angrily.
The label Wu Qi gave him was too heavy and too negative. Even if he was the eldest prince of Emperor Hao Zun, he couldn't bear the accusation. Unfilial and rebellious crimes are extremely serious in Dayu. If someone is really recognized as unfilial and rebellious, everything about him may be taken away instantly.
Especially at this critical moment, if King Xinshan is really found to be unfilial, his life may even be in danger.
Next to him, also wearing a prince's robe, and surrounded by thousands of civil servants and generals behind him, King Lishan, who appeared to be the weakest in the hall, coughed lightly and walked out slowly. King Xiang Xinshan raised his hand and said: "Brother, what King Donghai said is absolutely true. We should first thoroughly investigate the cause of my father's death, find out the mastermind behind it, and then discuss the ownership of the throne!"
When King Lishan said this, the leaders of the different forces in the hall nodded in agreement, which made King Xinshan's face become even more ugly. After being silent for a long time, King Xinshan shook his sleeves fiercely and shouted: "A snake can't do without a head..."
Wu Qi said dryly: "A snake cannot survive without a head, and Dayu is not a snake. If King Xinshan is worried about national affairs, he can ask all the political princes to work together to handle the national affairs. The eighteen political princes of Dayu are highly respected, mature and stable, and they have always been His Majesty. The best assistant in handling state affairs."
King Xinshan glared at Wu Qi angrily. He thought for a while and suddenly sneered: "Okay, just follow what King Donghai said. I don't care about the position of the prince. If it weren't for the worry about Zuo, the great Yu Kingdom, I really think that I Does the king take the position of the crown prince seriously? Do you really think that the king is someone who is striving for power and gain?"
Taking off his royal robe and throwing it heavily on the ground, King Xinshan said sternly: "The ugly words are ahead. If anything goes wrong with Dayu, I swear that I will never let you go." He gave a weird laugh.
King Xinshan stretched out his hand and pointed at the noses of Wu Qi and others one by one, he sneered and said: "Remember.
Now there is no emperor in Dayu, and state affairs are handled by the prince. Nowadays, Heavenly Court and Buddhism are taking action one after another, targeting me Dayu one after another. If you miss Dayu, don't blame me for being ruthless! "
Stomping his feet angrily, King Xinshan strode out of the hall with high arms. As he walked, he shouted loudly and ordered the palace guards to assemble. I opened all the palaces and pavilions. He wants to lead an army into the palace to search for any trace of the assassination of Emperor Hao Zun. Not long after, King Xinshan left without a trace, and only his roar could be heard in the distance: "I am the most filial to my father. If I find out who killed my father, I will definitely kill him." He cut his body into thousands of pieces with thousands of knives!"
King Xinshan walked out of the hall,
Behind him, there were at least 30,000 civil and military ministers who lined up in a neat queue and walked out. These civil and military ministers were all representatives of the Dayu clan and aristocratic families. More than 30,000 civil and military ministers, basically representing 20% of the clans and wealthy aristocratic families in Liangzhu, stood behind King Xinshan. Compared with King Yesan who only had the support of more than 3,000 civil servants and generals, King Shinsan had an absolute advantage in terms of actual power and momentum.
Wu Qi laughed softly and said, "With such momentum, no wonder he dares to call himself the prince."
King Lishan couldn't help but snorted angrily when he saw King Xinshan walking out with so many civil and military ministers. He glanced around, and his eyes touched each other with several middle-aged men wearing princely robes. Their gazes intertwined with sparks in the void like blades. He didn't know who was the first to secretly strike. A few muffled "bang bang" sounds were heard, the air in the hall was churning, and several princes stumbled back at the same time.
In addition to King Xinshan and King Yeoshan, who are in their own lineage, there are eight princes in the hall divided into three groups.
As for the political princes, except for Ji Ao, who was named King of Weishan and commanded the Xiong Army and was stationed in the Xiongyuan Western Region, the other seventeen were all present.
After King Xinshan walked out with a large group of people, five old men wearing princely robes walked slowly to King Yangshan and bowed to King Yangshan with their hands raised. King Yangshan returned the gift silently, and the six princes stood in a row. There is no doubt that King Yangshan and these five political princes are a faction, and they are also the most powerful faction among the political princes.
King of Yangshan, King of Yinshan, King of Cangshan, King of Haoshan, King of Dingshan, and King of Gushan. The six political princes stood neatly in the middle of the hall, and there was a sudden silence in the hall. King Lishan and other princes looked at each other, and at the same time retreated to the side with the civil and military ministers behind them. The other eleven princes who were divided into four factions strode forward calmly, and stood in the main hall with King Yangshan and other six people. It became a circle.
The seventeen princes with the highest status and the most military power in Dayu looked at each other. King Yangshan said solemnly: "Internal and external troubles have arisen at the same time. Some ambitious people can cause chaos, but we cannot!"
A tall prince immediately chuckled and said: "Ji Ben, you said that His Highness the Crown Prince is ambitious. This is unacceptable."
King Yinshan, who was standing next to King Yangshan, immediately scolded: "Why can't you tell me? Who ordered the flying bear army to imprison King Yangshan and hunt down King Qingqiu? Who couldn't wait to call himself the crown prince without waiting for the investigation of Bai Xia's assassination case? The throne of the Human Emperor? Who ignored His Majesty's secret decree and just...
King Yangshan coughed slightly, interrupting King Yinshan's angry scolding. He said calmly: "That's all, let's not talk about these things for the time being. All the kings and brothers should know what is important at the moment. How to deal with the invasion of Heavenly Court and Buddhism. Discuss a countermeasure. By the way, summon the elite of Si Xing Palace to join us. How about a thorough investigation of His Majesty's assassination under the surveillance of his confidants, and let the King of Donghai take charge of the matter?" A prince laughed: "King of Donghai? How qualified is he to take charge of such a major event?" Wu Qi silently pulled out the Kunwu sword. After waving his hand, the prince's laughter stopped abruptly, he glared at Wu Qi in a very embarrassed manner, and turned his head angrily to look away. Wuqi waved his Kunwu sword and walked slowly to the circle of these political princes. He said calmly: "The little king is not talented and has volunteered to investigate the assassination of His Majesty. The little king cannot guarantee that he will be able to investigate the matter clearly. But Xiao Wang will never let go of anyone who may be related to this matter. "Wu Qi's words were a bit contradictory, but no one laughed at his words because everyone could hear it from his words. There was a strong killing intent. The scene where Wu Qi used the Xuanyuan Demon-Slaying Sword Formation to smash the east gate of Liangzhu reappeared in everyone's minds. Including the political princes who were at odds with King Yangshan, they all shut their mouths. They would never fight with a man holding a Kunwu. People with swords often argue.
Glancing at the seventeen political princes present, Wu Qi sneered: "So, the little king asks the princes to give him the right to kill first and then report, or kill first and not report. The little king wants to kill someone. He must kill someone to find out what happened that day." How on earth. If you princes are sincerely for Dayu, for His Majesty, and for the great plan of our human race, then... the little king demands unlimited power." A political prince looked at Wu Qi in shock and said angrily: "What unlimited power? Power?" Wu Qi shook the Kunwu Sword in his hand and said calmly: "The so-called Yuan-limited power is that Xiao Wang can arrest anyone he suspects, investigate anyone, imprison anyone, torture anyone, or , he can kill his family members one by one in front of him. "Even King Yangshan was silenced by Wu Qi's words. If Wu Qi is really given this power, if he really does whatever he wants in Liangzhu. Then the consequences would be terrible. But if Wu Qi was not given such power, everyone was already talking to death. King Xinshan took off his royal robe in anger and gave up the opportunity to ascend the throne at this time. Now who dares to say that not giving Wu Qi this power means that he is unwilling to find out the true circumstances of the assassination of Emperor Hao Zun?
This crime was too big. Just as King Xinshan couldn't bear the blame for unfilial piety that Wu Qi put on him, no one in the hall could bear the accusation.
All the princes stared at Wu Qi for a long time. King Yangshan suddenly waved his hand and said: "That's all. We will give you whatever power you want. However, you cannot act alone. The eighteen princes who discuss politics must all appoint their confidants to follow them." By your side, you are not allowed to act recklessly and take the opportunity to kill Yu's important ministers!" When he said the last sentence, King Yangshan's tone did not change at all, but it gave people the feeling that he was eager to act recklessly.
The other princes were silent for a long time. Then he nodded slowly.
Wu Qi's eyes flashed, and he said in a cold voice: "Such a great kindness, but the little king also asks all princes to understand that if the confidants sent by the princes to monitor the little king are suspected of colluding with Heavenly Court and Buddhism to harm Dayu. Don't blame the little king. He is cruel and rude to them. Don't blame the little king for directly finding the heads of the princes!" Before these princes could speak, Wu Qi sneered and said: "Please think clearly, the princes, the fault is not that people with your status are acting in harmony with each other. Who could have framed His Majesty in the Dayu Palace?" King Yangshan and other seventeen political princes were horrified, and they looked at each other for a while. Said in unison:
"From today on, we will never leave the palace without authorization. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed." King Dingshan added: "All your princes must bring all their relatives to live in the palace unconditionally. If anyone dares to disobey... "The political princes also looked at King Yesan and several other princes who held real power and were supported by others. The faces of these princes were extremely ugly, and the faces of the representatives of the aristocratic families behind them were not much better either. After a few breaths of silence, these princes bowed deeply at the same time, but no one spoke.
The matter was settled, and the seventeen political princes jointly issued an official document of unlimited power to Wuqi with their own personal secrets.
After Wu Qi got the official document and the token to make a profit on the spot, he immediately issued the first order.
"Arrest all the imperial guards around your majesty. All their family members must be captured alive and thrown into the prison of God." "The imperial edicts used by your majesty are all made of special materials. All craftsmen and ministers responsible for making the edicts will be arrested. Together with all their relatives and family members, they were thrown into the Divine Prison. ""On the day of His Majesty's assassination and the two days before and after, all the palace guards who were on duty were arrested and sent to the Divine Prison together with all their relatives.
Taking a deep breath, Wu Qi casually threw the Kunwu Sword out of the hall, activating Liangzhu's protective formation again.
Huge coercion fell heavily over the palace, and Wu Qi said coldly: "Senior Zhulong, please manifest your soul into a human form and follow the little king to the divine prison!"
Everyone in the hall was stunned at the same time. Some even slapped their heads in great annoyance. How could they forget this?
When it comes to the assassination of Emperor Hao Zun, who can know better than the candle dragon of His Highness?
