The civil and military officials took a deep breath after hearing his words. Even the timid officials were sweating. They looked at Shen Muqing and smiled. The killing intent was endless, and even Ji Chang could not help but tremble. Inwardly, he was glad that he had only received two slaps in pain. Shame on him! Ying Zheng was truly miserable. Shen Muqing was going to kill him!2

Wu Tie was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He pointed at Shen Muqing and said, "Impudent! Do you still want me to die with Cai Jing?"

Shen Muqing shook his head: "I'm not the one who asked you to write it down. If you want to go back on your word, I don't mind!"

Ying Zheng's old face was flushed red. He was showing off his power to everyone. He had never made such a vow before, so could he keep this promise? Of course he wouldn't be able to carry it out. Could he die together with Cai Jing?

At this moment, Lee Si spoke up from below, "The so-called Dharma Master and Honored Warrior do not respect the Scholar. After all, His Highness Duke of Qin is Minister of Military, and is also a prince. We cannot afford to lose on matters of the world. This subject requests that the Duke of Qin be executed in place of punishment."

Wang Jian stepped forward and said, "The King of Qin is a soldier of China, he abandoned his family to the death. His life is not in danger, so he cannot be alone. I request the King of Qin to substitute for punishment."

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up. He gave Lee Si and Wang Jian an appreciative look and pretended to say: "Forget it, This King has done wrong. If I don't punish them severely, how can I establish my military might?"

With that, he cut a strand of his hair and then grabbed onto Shen Muqing, "This King has already been punished, what more does Ninth Brother want to say!?"

However, Shen Muqing looked at him steadily: "You can avoid death, but you will be unable to escape from death. We will lower his title and lose two hundred thousand soldiers from Cai Jing's army. We will double the pension for our Chinese soldier's soul. This money will be borne by Third Brother!"

It was brilliant, too brilliant!

Di Renjie and the others applauded. They were now members of the Cabinet and worried about the pension for the 200,000 dead soldiers. It's good now. Shen Muqing threw the blame directly to Ying Zheng with one sentence. It was too vicious.

The two hundred thousand soldiers of the army, the pension from the fallen army was equivalent to that of the four hundred thousand soldiers of the army. The Ying Zheng's army of two hundred thousand of the army, the pension from the fallen army was equivalent to that of the four hundred thousand soldiers of the army.

His leadership was lacking!

Ying Zheng's prestige in the military was greatly weakened. Ying Zheng argued on this point.

However, the Human Emperor said, "Ah, what Ninth Brother said is true. The Chinese laws are not to be exempted from punishment!"

After the Human Emperor spoke, Ying Zheng had no way to clench his teeth and say: "This son shall obey the decree!"

The assembly finally ended amidst the bloody rain, causing countless people to feel relieved. In this assembly, Ji Chang and Ying Zheng had both been defeated, each being forced to pay a fine and lose their hair!

Shen Muqing had achieved a complete victory, suppressing the two princes, but there was still a hidden danger. Using two hundred thousand soldiers to calm the Qingzhou, one must know that the current situation of Qingzhou was already very bad.

Therefore, if Shen Muqing couldn't take down this position, the consequences would be very serious.

It was precisely because of this that at the end of the assembly, the Imperial City had started to discuss. Countless people rushed into the restaurant to discuss about Shen Muqing, and at the same time, they were worried about the Qingzhou.

On the other side, Shen Muqing did not follow Zhao Kuangyin and Liu Che back for a drink after they left the court meeting, but instead went back to the Liu Steel Manor.

The reason why he dared to boast about his Qingzhou in the study room was because he had confidence in doing so, but right now he was unable to say anything about it in the meeting.
