The eighth day of the lunar new year is an auspicious day, and the sky is high and the air is refreshing.

The Imperial City Square is crowded with people.

Today, Emperor Zhao Qi will hold a ceremony here to pray for the war in Liaodong.

Before dawn, countless people had already surrounded the entire square.

Many of them did come to pray for blessings, but more of them came to see a focal point:

Jia Jue.

During this period of time, Jia Jue has been criticized a lot, but he has never shown his face. Today, Jia Jue will definitely appear in the ceremony of worshiping the heavens and praying for blessings!

They wanted to see what Jia Jue was doing and thinking during this time.

What's more, I wanted to scold him to wake him up.

At Chen Shi, a group of courtiers came to the scene one after another.

But everyone didn't find Jia Jue's figure among them. Just when they were guessing Jia Jue's whereabouts, a high-pitched voice sounded:

"The Emperor is here!"

"See Your Majesty!" Everyone saluted in unison.

Amid such voices, two people came slowly from the imperial city. One of them was the emperor Zhao Qi who was wearing a dragon robe, while the other was wearing a python robe.

It was Jia Jue.

Jia Jue actually followed Zhao Qi and appeared alone!
This means that Emperor Zhao Qi still trusts and is close to Jia Jue!

This made many people who wished for Jia Jue's death look unhappy. They wished that Jia Jue would collapse immediately, so how could they be happy to see such a scene?

Under the eyes of everyone, Zhao Qi led Jia Jue up to the altar.

Afterwards, he began to sacrifice to heaven, while Jia Jue, as his assistant, also stayed on the stage.

This made those who defeated Jia Jue even more upset. How could it be Jia Jue's turn to sacrifice to heaven?
But no matter what, the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven cannot be interrupted. They can only wait for the ceremony before they can attack.

Because it was a short-term sacrifice to heaven, the process was not complicated. The main thing was that Zhao Qi recited the congratulatory speech.

Soon, he finished his congratulatory speech, and what happened next was the highlight.

He put down his congratulatory speech and was about to start the next link.

Suddenly, a courtier came out more and more, and said loudly to Zhao Qi:
"Your Majesty, I have received the Letter from the People, and the people have something to report to Your Majesty!"

A trace of anger flashed across Zhao Qi's eyes when he heard this, he knew that someone was deliberately dealing with Jia Jue.Although he also expected that someone would do this, he did not expect that the other party would use the method of Wanmin Famous Book.

Originally, he could delay talking about it, but how could he turn a blind eye under the eyes of so many people.

"Submit it!" Zhao Qi said with a sullen face.

The courtier immediately took out a thick booklet, raised it above his head, and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, Wanmin is petitioning. There is a mistake in the battle of Liaodong. Please hold your Majesty accountable!"

Those who hated Jia Jue all smiled. Generally speaking, Zhao Qi might not make a decision on the spot after receiving the Wanmin Letter.

But his words forced Zhao Qi to come up with an explanation for this matter at this time.

They looked at the courtier one after another, and they all showed surprise. This person is usually not visible, but at such a moment, he has such a performance, and he doesn't know who it is.

Zhao Qi was furious, he said coldly: "The Liaodong war has not yet been concluded, it is too early to say."

Whoa!
Everyone was in an uproar when they heard the words, Zhao Qi wanted to protect Jia Jue with force.

Immediately someone stood up and said: "Your Majesty, although the battle in Liaodong has not been settled, there has already been a big problem. Some people are not generals in the army, but they talk nonsense and affect the generals in the army. This matter has to be done." Pay attention, if everyone follows suit, I will be in danger!"

Zhao Qi was furious. Just as he was about to speak, another person stood up and said righteously:

"Your Majesty, there are many rumors about this matter, and there are important officials from the imperial court intervening in the border war. Please also ask Your Majesty to order to set the record straight!"

After the words fell, many people among the crowd watching followed suit and shouted:

"Please Your Majesty's Holy Judgment, set the record straight!"

Most people follow the crowd, and ordinary people immediately shouted after hearing these words:

"Please Your Majesty's Holy Judgment, set the record straight!"

"You!" Amidst the shouts of the crowd, Zhao Qi's face darkened. It was the first time he had been persecuted by the people and courtiers for so many years since he ascended the throne.

However, he could only get angry, but there was nothing he could do.

Although he lacks personal morality in some aspects, he is still a qualified emperor for the country and the common people. He cannot take some extreme measures. These people took action.

Just when Zhao Qi was helpless, Jia Jue stood up and asked the courtiers who spoke just now:
"My lords, the important officials of the court who you are talking about intervening in the border war should be referring to me, right?"

The few people immediately sneered when they heard the words, and one of them said: "Yes, I heard that it was you, Prince Jia, who ordered Lu Qiang to lead the army to attack. Dare I ask Prince Jia, is there such a thing?"

Everyone looked at Jia Jue, waiting for his answer. This was the core question in the whole incident.

Will Jia Jue admit that this is his decision?
Zhao Qi quickly signaled Jia Jue with his eyes, asking him not to admit it.If he doesn't admit it, he can still force him to protect him. If he admits it, if Liaodong really made a mistake, this is a stain he can't erase.

But Jia Jue smiled at him, then nodded to everyone:
"Yes, it was indeed me who asked Lu Qiang to lead the army to take the initiative to meet the enemy head-on!"

Whoa!
All the girls were in an uproar, but Jia Jue actually admitted it, which was beyond their expectations.

But then, the shouting and cursing like a tide swallowed him up:
"It really is him! Outnumbered and outnumbered, he still wants to take the initiative to attack! How stupid this is!"

"It's over! It's over! The enemy army is several times that of the Liaodong Guard. How can the Liaodong Guard resist such a frontal fight?"

"There is a loss in Liaodong, and my great Han territory will be lost a lot, Jia Jue! You, why are you doing this!"

"Jia Jue! You stupid bastard! Thanks to me, I regarded you as the pillar of the world, but who knows, you are a sinner through the ages!"

"Yes, he is a sinner through the ages! He must never be forgiven!"

"Your Majesty, please punish me!"

"Your Majesty, please punish me severely! Give the Liaodong guards who sacrificed innocently, and the people of Liaodong an explanation!"

……

Under the leadership of the caring people, the surrounding people shouted with righteous indignation, demanding that Zhao Qi severely punish Jia Jue and give an account to the people of Liaodong.

At this moment, Jia Jue seemed to have become a traitor accused by thousands of people, and everyone shouted and beat him.

Seeing such an agitated scene, Zhao Qi panicked a little. He didn't even know if the means he had prepared would work.

And at this moment, a postman in red came galloping on horseback:

"Eight hundred miles, hurry up, the military situation in the Liaodong War has arrived!"
