After hearing Zhou Heng's decision, Qu Jingning immediately called Zhou Heng Shengming.
"I know I am very wise."
Zhou Heng replied with a smile
Early the next day.
All civil and military officials gathered in the court.
"Ai Qing, do you have anything you want to tell me today?" Zhou Heng asked the crowd, but they fell silent and no one spoke.
The most difficult and busy time has passed, and everyone is much more relaxed now, so it is not every day.
"It seems that there is nothing wrong."
Zhou Heng said with a smile.
"Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor, nothing is the best thing. This shows that my country is prosperous and the people are safe, and the people live and work in peace and contentment."
Someone stood up and said that although this sentence was suspected of flattery, it was just right.
"Well, this sentence speaks to the bottom of my heart. I hope that my country will be prosperous and the people will be safe, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment. All ministers and workers should take this as a goal and work hard."
Zhou Heng nodded slowly and said.
"The emperor is wise."
Everyone knelt down and shouted Zhou Heng Shengming.
"That's enough, that's all, don't shout about Shengming about this matter. Since you love ministers have nothing to do, I have something to do today. This matter can be big or small. You love ministers can take a look."
Zhou Heng ordered Jun Buqi to have the wooden box brought up.
Soon under the curious eyes of everyone, Jun Buqi ordered two guards to move the wooden box to the main hall, and there was a memorial on it.
From the traces of the memorial, it can be judged that the memorial has not been opened.
All the officials became curious about the memorial and the wooden box.
"Does anyone know what's inside? If anyone guesses correctly, I will be seriously injured." Zhou Heng looked at everyone and asked.
Zhou Heng is not afraid that everyone will know, because although the bad guys are also in the court system, Han Mo and the bad guys are not under the jurisdiction of the court, and Zhou Heng directly leads them.
Therefore, except for the bad people, only Zhou Heng and the others know about the things here, and it is impossible for all civil and military officials to know.
"Your Majesty, I guess it's gold, silver and jewelry." Someone stood up and guessed.
Zhou Heng smiled and waved his hand, "No." Zhou Heng replied.
"Your Majesty, are there calligraphy and paintings inside?" Lei Pibao made a guess, and Zhou Heng shook his head to indicate that Lei Pibao's guess was wrong.
"Could it be food?"
"It can't be eaten. If it was eaten, it would have smelled."
Everyone said their own things, and everyone had their own rhetoric, but neither of them guessed it. Yu Shilin and Qu Xu glanced at each other, and both of them felt that something was wrong
After a while, no one guessed it, and the number of guessers began to decrease. Finally, no one in the hall was guessing.
"Is there no one else?"
Seeing that everyone was silent, Zhou Heng asked.
"Report to the emperor, no more!"
Yu Shilin replied.
"Don't you guess, Prime Minister Zuo?" Zhou Heng asked Yu Shilin if he wanted to guess. Yu Shilin glanced at the wooden box and shook his head slowly, "I'm stupid, I don't know what's inside."
Yu Shilin replied.
This time he really didn't know, and he really complied with that sentence. No one knows what's inside this wooden box.
"All right."
Yu Shilin didn't guess, and Zhou Heng wasn't too difficult.
Zhou Heng slowly got up from the dragon chair and walked to the wooden box.
Zhou Heng lowered his head and glanced at the wooden box in front of him, then raised his head, and glanced at the surrounding ministers, all of whom were also looking forward to this wooden box.
"Everyone can't guess, so I can tell you what's inside this wooden box now. The things inside make me feel chilled. I would have set my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch."
Zhou Heng sighed helplessly.
"Here are the letters between the ministers of the Zhen Dynasty and the king of Lu. Let's talk about it, isn't this chilling?" Zhou Heng asked everyone, let everyone reason about it, and let everyone talk about it.
After Zhou Heng's words fell, all civil and military officials immediately knelt down to the ground.
In the current Great Zhou, Lu Wang Zhou Zheng is a taboo.
"Don't kneel, stand up." Zhou Heng told everyone to stand up.Zhou Heng patted the wooden box, "Everyone should know how I treat you from the beginning of my ascension to the throne. No matter whether I supported me or the King of Lu before, I treat you equally now."
"Because I believe that all of you are doing it for me, Da Zhou. But this incident made me really sad." Zhou Heng emphasized his tone.
The atmosphere above the hall suddenly became solemn and depressing.
Everyone was silent, and everyone felt a pressure.
Many people began to look at each other, opening this box would be the matter of exterminating the nine clans.
Zhou Heng turned around and returned to his dragon chair. Zhou Heng sat down and looked at the officials who bowed their heads in silence.
"Don't be silent, and don't pretend to be pitiful with me. I know that some of you have correspondence with King Lu. I decided to stop this matter and end it here."
Zhou Heng said slowly.
All the officials fell silent after listening to Zhou Heng's words.
"I haven't read the letter or the memorial. I feel that if I burn the letter and the memorial, I will give myself and all the ministers a chance. I don't want this to happen again. You don't want to burn the wooden box. It was burned outside the main hall, and I want everyone to take a good look at it."
Zhou Heng ordered Jun Buqi to move the wooden box outside the hall and burn it in front of everyone.
"yes."
You don't want to burn the wooden box.
"The emperor is wise!"
Qu Xu took the lead and shouted. With Qu Xu taking the lead, everyone naturally did not dare to hesitate, and knelt down one after another.
"Retire."
Zhou Heng didn't say much. He could forgive these people, but it didn't mean he wasn't angry.
After Zhou Heng left, many people looked at the burnt wooden box and breathed a sigh of relief. They felt like they were alive after a catastrophe. At that moment, they really thought they were going to be killed
The Imperial Study Room.
"Your Majesty, the minister of the Ministry of Industry pleaded guilty and knelt outside the imperial study room, begging the emperor for forgiveness." A young eunuch came in from the outside and reported to Zhou Heng what happened outside the imperial study room.
"come yet?"
The corner of Zhou Heng's mouth was raised. It seems that among these people, the minister of the Ministry of Industry also has a share, but it is not too surprising. When Zhou Heng was the prince, the minister of the Ministry of Industry was Zhou Zheng's person. There is nothing strange about this matter.
"Your Majesty, Yushi Zhongcheng came to plead guilty!"
"Your Majesty, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple has come to plead guilty!"
People came one by one.
Soon there were twenty or so people outside the imperial study room. These people were all related to Zhou Zheng, and they all supported Zhou Zheng.
"Let them all go back."
Zhou Heng put down the memorial in his hand and said lightly.
"yes."
The little eunuch came out of the imperial study to convey Zhou Heng's meaning, but the visitors were unwilling to leave, and they hoped that Zhou Heng could see them. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
