In the matter of investigating Irina, Constantine thought about it afterwards and felt that he had gone too far.
Therefore, when the ministers demanded that Ferlandrius be severely punished, he showed a trace of regret.
They agreed to the suggestions of the ministers and arrested Ferlandrius, who had been dismissed from his post and was idle at home.
Who made Ferlandrius really cross the line at that time?
Who made Ferlandrius a minister?
Sometimes the ministers have to take the blame for the king.
However, it would be a big mistake to say that Constantine compromised with his ministers just like this, and he would be underestimating the emperor who vowed to do something great.
Constantine had just ordered Ferlandrius to be arrested and imprisoned.
He gave the ministers a cruel move and directly attacked the alderman Gritches: "Lord Gritsis, there have been many people recently.
People accused me that not only did you have no political achievements when you were a city councilor, but you also accepted bribes and instructions from businessmen.
The ferocious slaves in the family bullied the market and killed many people.
Moreover, several wild beasts killed many law enforcement officials and soldiers in the Sheriff's Department the day before yesterday.
The impact was huge.
As the direct boss of the Sheriff's Department, you have not given me any advice until now.
A satisfactory investigation result.
What explanation do you have for this?"
Gritsis said quickly: "Dear Your Majesty, these charges are framed by someone deliberately against me.
The beast attack that occurred at the Sheriff's Department the day before yesterday is under investigation.
Once the investigation results are available, I will report to Your Majesty as soon as possible. report" "Peng" Constantine slammed the table and said angrily: "Framing you, look at such a thick official document accusing you.
Do you think I am deliberately trying to find trouble for you?
If you haven't done it, it will be framed."
You, you won’t have so many, I don’t care if you do Framed, this matter only needs to be investigated to find out who is responsible.
Gritsis is arrested and imprisoned, and temporarily dismissed from all official positions.
This time the case will be investigated by officials from the city guard.
After the investigation is completed, it will be handed over to the police.
Judges of the Senate hold trial” Gritsis exclaimed: "Your Majesty, you are wronged.
I am wronged.
I have never done anything."
The guards in the palace didn't care whether he yelled or not, they just dragged him out.
At this time, an official stood up and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Emperor, after all, Lord Gritsis is the mayor of Constantinople and an important minister of the empire.
Even if he commits a crime, if you want to take action against him, you must send someone to investigate in advance.
You can’t arrest and imprison until you have conclusive evidence.
What you do is not in compliance with the procedures.”
Immediately, another person stood up and said in support: "That's right, an important minister of the empire can investigate and arrest whenever he wants.
If this continues, won't everyone be in danger?
Who else has the mind to deal with government affairs?"
Constantine took a bad look at it.
If everyone else stood up to oppose him, he would immediately be in a dilemma.
Either he would not compromise and the emperor and his ministers continued to be in a stalemate, then the military and political institutions of the entire empire would come to a standstill.
This would For the empire that is now in turmoil, it is A fatal blow; or he must compromise and withdraw his arrest order for Gritsis.
In this way, he will lose to the ministers.
Once this precedent is set, he will be hindered in military and political affairs in the future.
If he is disturbed or even unable to move forward, the emperor will become a complete doormat.
Constantine reacted quickly, but the ministers acted faster.
They had more experience in fighting the emperor.

After these two people stood up to express their opposition, a large number of officials came forward immediately, including One person shouted: "Dear Your Majesty, please act in accordance with the rules and procedures.
It is the duty of the Senate to investigate the faults of officials.
How can you let the city guards come forward?
Isn't this chaos?
Do you want the relevant official offices of the Senate to become decorations in the future?
Your Majesty the Emperor , the regulations of the imperial government The rules and procedures were set by the emperors of the past dynasties, and future generations cannot make changes easily.
If there is no sufficient reason, it is easy to change the rules set by the emperors of the past dynasties.
This is a denial of the emperors of the past dynasties.
The reason why you became the emperor is because of you.
You are the descendant of the emperors of the past dynasties.
If you don't uphold these rules, what qualifications do you have to be the emperor?
You must know that you are not the only member of the royal family.
In terms of blood, there are many others who are qualified to be the emperor.
For example, your uncles who have retired to the monastery" This is completely heartbreaking.
If you don't follow the procedures, the legitimacy of your position as emperor will be questioned.
Even if you say this, the ministers are already naked and ready to fight with the emperor to the end.
After hearing these words, Constantine was so angry that his whole face was distorted with anger: "Asshole, you actually question and attack the king like this.
Even if I kill you a hundred times, it's not too much.
Drag him down."
Cut it off" The official raised his chest and raised his head and laughed: "Hahaha, His Majesty the Emperor can kill me, but the eyes of his subjects are sharp.
Even if he kills me, His Majesty the Emperor cannot cover up his misdeeds.
In the future, nobles, officials, and generals from all over the country will The army and the army will no longer act according to the previous rules, all systems will be gradually broken, and then the entire empire will be in chaos."
Constantine was so angry that he couldn't control his emotions.
He flew into a rage, pointed at the official and shouted: "Drag him out, chop him to death, chop him into pieces."
"Wait a minute."
Chief Minister Staragios immediately stood up and yelled at the guards who rushed in: "Step back for now, step back."
Several guards stopped.
You looked at me and I looked at you.
Although they did not exit, they did not arrest anyone further.
Staragios immediately turned around and saluted Constantine and said: "Dear His Majesty the Emperor, please calm down.
This is the Golden Council Palace, where the monarch and ministers discuss state affairs together.
How can His Majesty the Emperor because of the ministers?"
If you order people to kill people because of their remarks, no official will dare to speak in the future."
Constantine was also confused.
He pointed at the official with a trembling finger and said loudly: "But what he said just now is really too much.
Is this what a minister can say to the king?
If not, If I am punished severely, what if someone follows my example in the future?
What majesty does this emperor still have?"
Staragios said: "Your majesty, the emperor, killing is never the only means an emperor can use to establish his majesty.
The reason why Mr.
Weiming made these remarks is because your majesty made a mistake first.
What you just said The disposal has touched upon the very foundation of imperial rule, don't you think Understand that the emperor's rights do not all come from your identity, but to a large extent from the system and rules.
Without these established systems and rules, you would only be an emperor in terms of status, a mere expression.
You are just a shell of an emperor, just like you were before you came to power.
In this way, with these rules and systems, you have the rights consistent with the emperor's status.

This is the result of the joint efforts of emperors and ministers of the past dynasties.
Now you are just out of anger, are you going to destroy the cornerstone of your rights with your own hands?
Not only is Mr.
Ming not guilty, he is as loyal as he is.
You are extremely sincere.
Even if you are in danger of being chopped into pieces, you still speak out about your faults and remind you to correct your mistakes.
What a brave and upright person you are.
Your Majesty, not only can you not kill such a minister, but you also want everyone to do it.
It’s only right to give him a reward and set him as an example for officials.”
Constantine only felt a tightness in his chest.
Staragios's words were more lethal than Wei Ming's words just now.
He couldn't hold it back.
He opened his mouth and protruded a mouthful of blood.
His face was as white as paper, and his whole body was also pale.
Passed out.
"Ah, your majesty, your majesty is vomiting blood.
Call the doctor quickly."
A black eunuch immediately rushed over and shouted loudly, rushing to check.
Some other eunuchs ran over and carried Constantine away with all their hands.
Several janitors Soldiers holding weapons guarded the surrounding area.
The ministers looked at each other, and when Constantine was carried away, they all began to discuss.
Staragios raised his hands and shouted: "My lords, please don't make any noise.
We must send someone over now to check on His Majesty the Emperor."
"Yes, yes, I suggest that Lord Staragios lead us into the inner palace to have a look.
One or two people are always useless in the past, and more people are better."
"agree" "agree" So the ministers rushed into the inner palace together, all the way to the emperor's bedroom in the Dafna Palace.
The emperor was placed on the bed, and the palace doctor quickly rushed over to examine Constantine.
"My lords, His Majesty the Emperor's illness is nothing serious.
It's just that he was overly stimulated.
As long as he doesn't suffer from such stimulation in the future, he will be fine.
I will pick some herbs later and pound them for His Majesty the Emperor to drink.
He will be fine soon.
Will wake up” Staragios immediately waved his hand and said: "Then go and get ready."
"Yes, my lord" Staragios turned to the officials and ministers and said: "Everyone, we must block the news that His Majesty the Emperor passed out in the Golden Council Palace.
At this time, any unfavorable news may cause turmoil in the empire."
Although Staragios belongs to Irina, he is a qualified chief minister.
In this situation, he still focused on the overall situation and did not take any disadvantageous measures against Constantine because of his coma. move, because nothing could happen to Constantine at this time.
An emperor who began to rule was in an unstable position of power.
If she dies suddenly, even Irina will not gain any benefits.
In the entire empire, there are not only two political forces, the imperial party and the rear party.
There are also many remnant forces of uncle Wang who have been active in the government and the public.
There are hostile forces against the royal family among the people, not to mention foreign hostile forces
