Chapter 288： : Punishment Junji, digging the Grand Canal for 1 month

"bump!"

After speaking, Li Chengfeng patted the dragon chair again.

Hou Junji, Li Moshu and the others were shocked again.

In fact, they used to often organize groups to go out for fun while the emperor was on tour.

They thought that the eighth prince's discipline would not be so strict when he came to court for the first time, but the eighth prince's discipline was much stricter than the emperor's.

Sometimes, some ministers did not come when Li Shimin went to court, and Li Shimin turned a blind eye, because Li Shimin was used to it.

Those ministers can always find various reasons to confuse the past.

But this time, they couldn't get over Li Chengfeng's confusion.

Although Li Chengfeng does not have the position of emperor, he has the prestige of emperor.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty are now waiting to see the good show of Hou Junji and Li Moshu.

It was because of the four of them that they were all here and punished to stand for a day.

The Eighth Prince didn't deal with government affairs, didn't go to court, didn't retreat from court, just sat here, waiting for Junji and the others to come back.

So, wasting everyone's whole day.

Li Chengfeng continued: "Hou Junji, Li Moshu, Wang Cheng, and Liu Weiguo! The prince did this in the hope that you can understand that you all are a group! If one person breaks the rules, the group will be punished! The four of you did not come to court today. After wasting so many people's time, how do you think this prince should punish you?"

Hou Junji kowtowed and pleaded guilty, saying: "Eighth prince, this old minister has confessed to this crime! The old minister is willing to be punished, and I ask the eighth prince to deal with it!"

Li Moshu also kowtowed to plead guilty, and Yu Hou Junji said exactly the same words, as did the other two.

Li Chengfeng waved his hand, and said: "Okay, since Chen Guogong and others have pleaded guilty, then, my prince will punish the four of them now!"

"I won't mention the fines! If anyone who makes a mistake is fined, it will be too cheap for them!"

"Prime Minister Du Ruhui, may I ask, how many ministers have come to court today?"

Li Chengfeng turned his head to look at Du Ruhui.

Du Ruhui picked up the booklet in his hand, checked the list, and said: "Report to the Eighth Prince, except for the ministers who have not returned, there are 123 ministers in the court!"

"Okay!" Li Chengfeng nodded, then looked at Hou Junji and the other four people, and said, "You four have wasted a day's time of 123 ministers here, so the four of you will be collectively responsible for this time!"

"123 divided by 30 equals approximately 4! 4 divided by 4 equals 1!"

"So, my prince punished the four of you to dig a month-long Grand Canal at the foot of Dayue Mountain in Changfeng Village!"

"what?"

"Ding, the shock from Hou Junji, naughty value +99!"

"Ding, surprise from Li Moshu, naughty value +99!"

…

Li Chengfeng's punishment stunned the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty.

Punish the Duke, Minister, Minister of the Ministry of Officials and others to dig the Grand Canal?

Are these things that ordinary people should do?

Actually fined them to dig the Grand Canal? Not to mention the hot weather, just that the dignified Duke went to dig the Grand Canal, and it would be embarrassing enough to spread the news.

Hou Junji and the others are also very old. It’s okay to let them go on business trips and cruises, but they have to dig the Grand Canal for a month under the scorching weather of nearly 40 degrees? This will definitely cost them half their lives.

Some ministers began to stand up and intercede to Hou Junji and the others.

But Li Chengfeng was very stern and selfless, and said: "The emperor broke the law, and even committed the same crime as the common people! This prince is only giving Chen Guogong, Li Shilang and others some small punishments!"

"If a country wants to be prosperous and strong, the most important thing is discipline! If everyone is like Chen Guogong and the others, they go out to play at every turn, and don't come to the court? What's the royal face?"

"Okay, you don't have to intercede for Chen Guogong and the others! Chen Guogong, I wonder if you are dissatisfied with the punishment of the prince?"

Li Chengfeng frowned and looked at the four of Hou Junji.

Hou Junji knelt down on the ground, sighed, and said, "Reporting to the Eighth Prince, the old minister is not dissatisfied! This is the fault of the old minister, and the veteran is willing to be punished!"

"Okay, then, the four of you, start to dig the Grand Canal in Changfeng Village tomorrow, and start digging the Grand Canal with the people. Don't be lazy! Otherwise, if you are caught by this prince, you will be convicted again and punished again!"

"Yes, Eighth Prince, old minister, accept the crime!"

Hou Junji buried his head very low.

But he didn't dare to say too much, and he didn't dare to disobey Li Chengfeng's intentions.

Because now Li Shimin is seriously ill and is recuperating in Changfeng Village. In the palace, Li Chengfeng is in charge of the imperial power, and he is the most powerful person in the entire Tang Dynasty.

And what Li Chengfeng did was actually to warn the ministers present that they were not allowed to be late or absent when they went to their court in the future.

Otherwise, let me dig the Grand Canal.

"Okay, so today's morning court is over! Everyone retire, and tomorrow morning, continue to court! Retire!"

"Yes, Eighth Prince!"

…

This morning, he went up for a whole day, and didn't retreat until the sun went down in the evening.

At first, many ministers thought that the Eighth Prince came to court just as a joke, but only now did they understand how strict the Eighth Prince's requirements for discipline are.

The four of Hou Junji didn't come to court for a day? Just fine them to dig the Grand Canal for a month?

This is not a matter of physical labor, but a matter of face.

Just imagine, a high-ranking Duke of the Tang Dynasty actually wants to dig the Grand Canal with the common people? How embarrassing it is to spread this out?

But Hou Junji did not dare to disobey Li Chengfeng's punishment, after all, they were at fault first.

Therefore, he can only accept the punishment willingly, and from then on, he will earnestly assist the Eighth Prince in handling the government affairs.

"Eunuch Wu, I'm hungry, go prepare dinner for me!"

On the way back, Li Chengfeng said to Eunuch Wu.

Li Chengfeng was already hungry since he hadn't eaten all day.

But he just wanted to give those ministers a blow and let them know that although he was only six years old, his royal authority was not something that the ministers could provoke.

…

Sure enough, the next morning Li Chengfeng had just stepped into the court hall.

The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty had already arrived, and they stood upright, and they stopped whispering.

"Sure enough, the method taught by the primary school Chinese teacher is effective!" Li Chengfeng smiled lightly.

Sitting on the golden throne, Li Chengfeng spoke majestically and said, "Duke Lai, is there anyone who is not here today?"

"Report to the Eighth Prince, all ministers are here!" Du Ruhui replied respectfully.

Li Chengfeng nodded and said: "Okay, then from now on, let's go to court officially! Ministers, what do you have to go to court?"

Holding the memorial in hand, Liu Zhenghui took a step forward and said, "The old minister has something to announce!"

"Zoo!" Li Chengfeng waved his sleeve.
