Signing in to Datang: Rebellion at the beginning

Chapter 58 The Power of the Son of Heaven
When that seal was taken out, everyone's eyes were attracted again.

Even when ordinary people see that seal, they clearly realize that it is different.

Dragon, a symbol of status.

It is also a symbol of power and dignity.

All countries represent the supreme imperial power, and there is only one true son.

No one dares to hold any objects related to dragons privately.

Otherwise, it may be considered as arrogance or rebellion.

Therefore, when Li Ke took out that small seal, an idea appeared in everyone's mind, this person is definitely not an ordinary person.

The magistrate was also slightly shocked, and like the other magistrates, they all stared at the seal.

After a long time, one of the magistrates spoke up.Said in a trembling voice:

"This Panlong seal, why does it look a bit like..."

Another county magistrate took up the conversation and said:
"It's a bit like the emperor's seal that the emperor carries with him when he travels."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was in an uproar, and everyone came to their senses amidst doubts and bewilderment.

That's right, it is the emperor's Xingxi, a seal that only the emperor will carry to show his identity when he goes out.

There is only one seal in the whole world, and there will never be any forgery!

So when this Xingxi appeared, there was only one possibility.

That is, the holder is the current emperor.

Li Ke's expression was calm, but invisibly, a wave of coercion had been released.

Whether it is as a fifth-rank warrior, a fifth-rank scribe, or the majesty that he possesses as the emperor himself.

At this moment, all of them have been released, and the terrifying coercion spread throughout the audience, and everyone who was under pressure was a little breathless.

At this moment, facing such a terrifying coercion, no one dared to doubt the identity of the person in front of him.

The kind of fear that comes from the soul engraved in the bones of Li Ke, the emperor, does not allow them to have the slightest arrogance in front of Li Ke.

At this time, Li Ke patted the gavel again, and said:
"Come here, take down the criminal magistrate and the five county magistrates."

As soon as these words came out, the aura of majesty erupted again, ruthlessly frightening everyone present.

Several yamen servants immediately stepped forward, driven by the fear in their hearts, they directly took down the magistrate and the five county magistrates, and pressed them to the ground, making them kneel.

The magistrate and the five county magistrates didn't dare to resist at all.

Because at this moment, facing the majesty of the emperor, they felt extremely fearful in their hearts.

Even his legs were a little weak, and he couldn't even raise the slightest desire to resist.

When these prisoners knelt down.

The officials on both sides of the hall and the common people outside also knelt down one after another.

Almost at the same time:
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!!"

The prefect and the five county magistrates were already dumbfounded, and trembling voices also said:
"I see... Your Majesty, Your Majesty... Long live your Majesty!"

Li Ke lightly waved his hand and said:

"The innocent shall die."

His words used the talents of the fifth-class scribes.

So between opening his mouth, while waving his hand, a faint and gentle force radiated imperceptibly, gently supporting the government officials on both sides and the people watching outside, making them stand up.

At this moment, everyone was extremely shocked.

They all thought secretly in their hearts: Is this the power of the Son of Heaven?

Every word and deed seems to have a force controlling them.

Or, this is what the legend says: what you say is what you say.

Therefore, facing the emperor Li Ke, both the government officials and the common people were even more in awe and fear.

Li Ke looked at the prefect and county magistrate kneeling below, and said lightly:

"You criminal officer, have you ever been convicted?"

These people were all pale with fright.

The magistrate hurriedly kowtowed on the ground and said:
"I am guilty, I am guilty, I beg Your Majesty to forgive me..."

The five county magistrates also quickly reacted and begged for mercy.

Li Ke said lightly, "Tell me, where is your crime?"

The magistrate didn't dare to raise his head, and said in a voice trembling with cold sweat:
"Sinful ministers, criminal ministers, you shouldn't collect taxes indiscriminately... I have already committed a crime, please forgive me..."

Li Ke snorted and said:

"Prefect of Shun'an Prefecture, you are so courageous. Taxation is the policy of the country and the foundation of a country. You actually changed the tax policy without authorization and added various taxes indiscriminately.

But you don't care about the taxes that the country should have. You are not only exploiting the people, but also exploiting our country. "

The prefect was already trembling all over:
"Your Majesty, I... I was blinded by lard for a while, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Forgive me? You are an official on one side. Not only do you condone the magistrates of the counties under your command, but you even join forces with yourself. How dare you beg me here to spare your life.

It seems that you still don't realize how heinous and hateful the crime you committed is.Forget it, people like you, I am speechless and nonsense! "

Having said that, Li Ke slapped the table with a slap.

"Your crime, you should die to pay for it!"

As soon as the words fell, a terrifying aura erupted from Li Ke's body, flew out instantly, and hit the prefect of Shun'an.

Before he could react, he felt that there was a puffing sound in his stomach and lungs.

Then he spat out a mouthful of blood.

By this time, he didn't even realize that he was about to die, he just lowered his head and covered his chest with his hands.

Apparently something didn't understand what was going on.

After being puzzled for a few seconds, the pain in his stomach brought him back to his senses.

Immediately afterwards, the fear in his eyes spread rapidly!
He tried his best to look up at Li Ke, the remorse and desire to survive in his eyes could not be concealed.

However, it was too late.

The next moment, he fell straight down without breathing.

Seeing this scene, the county magistrates were so frightened that they urinated in their crotches.
