Liu Bian smiled and led Guo Jia to go first, Zhang Zhonghai, the governor of Runan County, was taken aback after hearing the prince's words, thinking that the prince knew something, why his words sounded a little weird.

But before he had time to think about it, he saw that Liu Bian and the others had gone out, so he hurriedly ran out to lead the way in front of Liu Bian, but there were many thoughts in his mind.

"Prince arrives—"

When he came to the entrance of the hall, Dian Wei suddenly shouted loudly, and immediately the officials in the hall were startled, and they all knelt down and bowed down: "See His Royal Highness, a thousand years old."

Because of waiting for the prince to arrive for a long time, many officials in the hall were talking about it. Although their voices were not loud, what they were talking about was disrespectful to the prince. Startled.

Liu Bian didn't speak, let all the officials kneel on the ground, led Guo Jia and Dian Wei straight to the top seat, then sat down solemnly, glanced back and forth a few times in the Renjun below, frightened Some people's bodies trembled slightly.

"When I came to Runan County today, I saw all the adults in our Runan County gathered together. It can be said that the talents are flourishing. You have worked hard, all adults, get up."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Everyone stood up tremblingly, but most of them lowered their heads, not daring to look at the prince above. At this time, a faint fragrance wafted in the wind, and all the adults in the hall could smell the fragrance.

But at this time, everyone was waiting for Liu Bian to speak, so no one paid attention to where the scent came from. After Liu Bian smelled the scent, he raised his head and looked at Guo Jia who was on the side, and then said:
"Runan County is not far from Gyeonggi, but it has been repeatedly attacked by Yellow Turban bandits in recent years. Even the county city has been captured this year. It really makes the court worry. But this king came to Runan. Seeing that all the adults are still stubbornly resisting the Yellow Turban Bandits, I can't help but be very moved, and today I will borrow the wine from the Runan County Yamen to give you a noble honor." Liu Bian, Guo Jia, and Dian Wei raised the wine nobles, He drank it first, and made everyone below look overjoyed.

"His Royal Highness, the banditry in Runan has been rampant and lasted for a long time. It is really the fault of the officials who are incompetent. They dare not be praised by His Royal Highness." Zhang Zhonghai, the governor of Runan County, replied modestly.

"That's right, your highness is so blushing that the lower officials are a little blushed. The remaining yellow scarf thieves in Runan have never been wiped out. As a county lieutenant, the lower officials have a lot of responsibility. Please punish your highness." Runan County Wei Zhou Xingcheng was a little He bowed his hands in shame and said.

"Your Highness, as officials of Runan County, we should take responsibility for the rampant yellow scarves banditry in Runan County. This time, Your Highness came here on behalf of the saint. I don't know what punishment will be given?" Bai Fenglin, the prime minister of Runan County, was also confused Say.

"No matter what punishment the court imposes, the lower officials are willing to bear it. If we fail to keep one side safe and the people of the other side, we are ashamed of the great trust of the court and the trust of the Holy Majesty."

Some other county officials also expressed their apologies one after another. If Liu Bian hadn't known that they had evil intentions, he would have thought that all of them were loyal officials who dared to admit their mistakes and take responsibility. What about my own responsibility?

It's a pity that Liu Bian already knew their plan, so he knew that everything they said at this time was false, just to relax his vigilance against them and fall into their trap.

"My lords are right. The reason why Runan County is today is entirely on your shoulders." Liu Bian first quietly listened to the self-blame of these officials. Anyway, he has to delay for some time, so it is better to let them enjoy themselves. Let's talk, until they stopped talking, then he slowly spoke to everyone, but what he said was shocking.

"What does Your Highness mean?" Zhang Zhonghai, governor of Runan County, and other officials looked at each other, and then asked in a low voice, looking a little uncertain about Liu Bian's words.

"Don't you understand what I said? The rampant yellow scarves in Runan County are closely related to the moths of the court here. Without you, the people in Runan would not have encountered such a big disaster; without you , the Yellow Turban thieves in Runan would not be so blatantly evil; if it weren't for you, why would there be such chaos in the world like Runan? So you are actually very correct, you have to take full responsibility for this, and bear The consequence of responsibility is that you will have your family ransacked and your family wiped out.”

Liu Bian said calmly, and his momentum became more and more powerful, his majesty became more and more serious, his expression became more and more serious, his tone became more and more tough, and finally he almost roared at everyone, shocked All the officials present were taken aback.

"Your Highness, are you really going to punish us?" Runan Commander Zhou Xingcheng suddenly laughed, stepped forward and asked.

"What do you want to do? Talking to His Highness the Crown Prince like this, is it a subject's doing? Could it be that you want to be treasonous?" Dian Wei also stepped forward, looked at him coldly and shouted, his roar was like thunder, and the hall was buzzing There was a loud noise, and a group of Eastern Palace guards outside the hall all rushed in after hearing the roar, with their swords unsheathed, exuding a deep chill.

"Your Highness, I have worked so hard day and night for the affairs of Runan, but I didn't expect to get such a result in the end. Could it be that the Han court is already like this? Then what hope do we ministers have?" Runan County Shou Zhang Zhonghai said with a wry smile.

"Yes, we saved Runan County, how could the imperial court treat us like this? After that, who will be willing to serve the Han imperial court among the officials from all over the world?"

"We are not convinced, why should we be punished like this? We will never stand still. Since the court is not benevolent, don't blame us for being unrighteous."

The other officials also shouted, and on the surface they spoke righteously and sternly, as if the court had let them down. If they hadn't known about their secret conspiracy, people would still sympathize with them.

"Hehe, my lords are all masters of acting. It sounds like the imperial court owes you a lot. Then I don't know what everyone gathered in this hall to discuss in the past few nights? I don't know what you are doing here What do you want to do with the drug inside? I don’t know what you yellow scarves are trying to do in ambush outside the county office? And besides the small forest five miles outside the city, the leaders of the yellow scarves He Yi and Huang Shao’s large troops gathered What do you want to do again?"

Watching the performance of the crowd, Liu Bian suddenly laughed coldly, and slowly said to the crowd, each sentence would startle the hearts of the crowd, and at the end of the speech, Liu Bian had already sternly yelled out, Everyone was so shocked that they didn't know what to do.
