Chapter 617
"It's nothing to make a fuss about dying." Dugu Sheng glanced at Xia Sheng with a cold look.
Xia Sheng pulled him down. Anger appeared on his handsome face and said, "Dugu Sheng, what are you talking about? You are the prime minister, the elder of the three dynasties and a loyal minister. How can you be so cold-blooded?"
"What is a loyal minister? Although he went through three dynasties, he had no significant achievements in his political achievements. As the Prime Minister of a country, he should assist the emperor well and guide the emperor correctly in time when he made a wrong decision.
And he, four years ago, failed to prevent the emperor from setting up a plot against Ji's family and forcing me to rebel. After that, he failed to take warning. Seeing Qi Zixian step by step monopolizing power, he did not stop it. As the prime minister, he could not bear the blame for today's result. "
Dugu Sheng's voice was deep, and his whole body was full of cold and cruel.
Xia Sheng shrunk his mouth and said, "this With the situation in the summer, he can't stop it alone. "
"Alone? This shows that he is incompetent. He is the prime minister. He can be said to be the backbone of the great Xia court. He is able to summon the court officials to express his good opinions to the emperor. However, he did not. The court officials are separated from each other and seem to be scattered.
On the one hand, he didn't admonish the emperor for his immorality; on the other hand, he didn't punish the officials for their greed. He had no leadership at all, and he didn't do his duty as a loyal minister. A mediocre person can't do much. It's no pity to die. " Dugu Sheng said.
Xia Sheng looked at Dugu Sheng and sighed: "Oh, what a heartless guy."
Dugu Sheng was ruthless and decisive, but what he said was quite right.
The word "loyalty to a minister" is to care for the country and devote all one's life to his death.
For those who pursue official career, the purpose of being an official is to enjoy glory, wealth and glory.
When the situation is turbulent, none of them put the interests of the country first, and all of them are holding the idea of protecting their lives.
There are too many such officials in Daxia now, which makes Qi Zixian's ambition come true.
If the prime minister and his ministers had resolutely opposed Qi Zixian's administration on behalf of the emperor, it would never have happened today.
"But you said you wouldn't ignore it." Xia Sheng looks at Dugu Sheng and says.
"Don't worry about that." Dugu Sheng said coldly.
"I said, how do you think, can't you talk to me, let me also feel at ease." Xia Sheng stares at Dugu Sheng angrily.
He wanted to know what the old man was going to do to save him from jumping up and down, but the old man's mouth was so tight that he didn't tell him anything.
Dugu Sheng took a look at Xia Sheng and said, "doctor Gang said that he is short of some medicinal materials. Go and see what he is short of and get it quickly."
"Dugu Sheng, you don't tell me anything. It's too much of you to treat me as a servant..."
"Prince, the man has brought it." The underworld came and saluted Dugu Sheng.
"Well." Dugu Sheng answered, got up and went out.
"Well, old man, where are you going and who are you going to see?"
Xia Shengchong shouts from Dugu Sheng's back, but he doesn't get an answer. He turns his mouth and mutters: "I don't want to know, but I want to find out."
He said, creeping up.
Dugu Sheng and Hades went to another cave. When they saw more than ten people sitting in the cave, they immediately stood up to meet him.
"See Prince Sheng." More than ten people knelt in front of Dugu Sheng.
"Please get up quickly. It's hard for you to come so soon." Dugu Sheng put out his hand and asked them to get up and sit down with them.
"It's not hard. When we heard that Prince Sheng had come back, we were very happy and excited. We wanted to give birth to wings and fly back immediately." One said with a smile.
Several people looked at Dugu Sheng, the most beautiful prince. Before, they had the impression that the bloodthirsty devil was the God of war.
There is also, when he was angry for Ji Longyue, he bloody washed the bandits of the imperial palace of the summer, but they could not hate him.
Because they have witnessed that officials in the summer are greedy to enrich their own pockets and engage in malpractices In the end, the imperial power fell into the hands of a beloved imperial concubine.
They were all the best in the imperial examination. After the examination, they all got good positions. Only when they entered the official world, did they realize how dark the officialdom was.
The magnificent and rich Daxia was corroded into an empty shell by the pedantic and decadent government. There was no need for foreign enemies. The officials stationed in the insect could destroy Daxia.
they even wrote their names to change Daxia, but their memorials could not be sent to the prime minister's secretary's room, so they were burned by their superior officials, and then they were subjected to all kinds of repression and threats.
Unable to deliver the memorial, they went to the palace and knelt down to ask the emperor to meet them. They also wanted to play the drum They tried their best to find a way, and finally someone came into the palace, but what they saw was the imperial concubine.
They fought to the death and ended the hopeless battle with the death of three people.
Finally, they realized that it was a fool's dream to turn the decadent summer around with a few of them.They gave up the idea of saving Daxia and left their official posts one after another. Some of them were demoted to be small officials in small towns because of their livelihood.
Just a few days ago, someone found them and told them that Prince Sheng had asked them to return to the central court and change the chaotic political situation in the summer. They were very excited.
Immediately he packed up and said goodbye to his family, and came to the Imperial City nonstop.
They look at Dugu Sheng like a God. This is the real man in their heart, the king who can protect Da Xia.
They were all full of awe for Dugu Sheng.
As soon as Dugu Sheng was about to open his mouth, he heard a shout.
"Prince Sheng, you are back."
Several respectable and wealthy middle-aged men came into the cave. They all looked sad and happy. They quickly stepped forward and knelt down in front of Dugu Sheng, wiping their tears with their long sleeves.
"Get up, people." Dugu Sheng looked at the visitor and said.
"Prince Sheng, the emperor, the emperor is dead..."
When a middle-aged man said that, he made others cry.
Dugu Sheng's blue eyes were sharp. Looking at one person in the crowd, he was calm from beginning to end, with no joy or sorrow.
He took a sip of tea, looked up at the man and said, "millet cloud, the emperor died, why don't you cry?"
Gu Ziyun saluted Dugu Sheng and said, "I got a message from the prince the day before yesterday. I want you to keep your life. Weichen guessed that something might happen in the palace. Today, Weichen was recruited into the palace. Qi Zixian said that the emperor had died.
Weichen doesn't believe it, because Prince Sheng is here. The emperor will never die. "
Dugu Sheng looked at the white jade tea cup in his hand and said with a faint smile, "four years ago, I killed the emperor when I washed the palace with blood."
"In those days, if you wanted to kill the emperor, the emperor would never survive. You still thought about the brotherhood." Millet cloud said with a smile.
With a relieved smile, Dugu Sheng looked at the confused people and said, "Gu Ziyun is right. The emperor is not dead."
"Ah?" When they heard Dugu Sheng's words, they were surprised again.
"It was Qi Zixian's coup with the imperial guards and the city guards. The emperor has been rescued by the king. What Qi Zixian showed you is fake." Dugu Sheng said.
"I said, it must be Qi Zixian's ghost..."
"The emperor is not dead, this, this is great, the emperor is not dead, the emperor is not dead..."
The minister who spoke cried with excitement, and the rest of them sobbed in a low voice.
"Shut up." Dugu Sheng gave a low drink, and all of them closed their mouths and looked at him timidly with tears in their eyes.
"I sent a letter to you the day before yesterday. I just didn't want you to disobey Qi Zixian and give her a chance to eradicate her dissidents. Fortunately, you are obedient." Dugu Sheng said.
"We are the people of Prince Sheng, and we are the audience of his orders." Some people say.
"Wow, how lively." Xia Sheng comes out from the dark and looks at the crowd with a smile.
He walked up to Dugu Sheng, bumped his arm and said in a low voice, "old man, there are so many officials in the court who belong to you. You are so secretive."
The spacious cave was full of people, all of whom were officials of different departments. It can be seen that Dugu Sheng's power was all over the country. If he really wanted to rebel, no one could stop him.
No wonder the emperor always suspected that he would rebel. He would be afraid to doubt himself.
It seems that the old man was merciful to the emperor when he washed the imperial city.
Dugu Sheng looked at the crowd and said, "I'll take you to see the emperor and the Empress Dowager first. After that, I have something to discuss with you..."
