Chapter 829: Love-struck fool, thats enough
The above statement, ran as follows.
No matter what Prince Xiao and the Empress have done together, and no matter how many people will be involved in the re-investigation of Prince Xiao"s rebellion, now that the Empress spoke, the matter was a foregone conclusion. Unless the Emperor wakes up, unless the army enters the city to take down Prince Xiao, otherwise, this matter cannot be changed.
Of course, at this time the emperor was unconscious, the crown prince was recuperating, Imperial Concubine Zhou was placed under house arrest, and the reinforcements were blocked by the Jinwuwei Army outside the city, unable to move an inch.
Prince Xiao gained the upper hand, and those who worked for the Emperor, such as the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Punishment, were naturally unlucky.
After Xiao Tianyao took out the secret decree to prove that he was ordered to bring the Jinwuwei Army back to the capital, the eunuch who was sent by the Emperor was taken into custody.
The three ministers of the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Household, and the Ministry of Punishment were also emptied on the spot. The Empress sent someone to check the finances of Xiao w.a.n.gfu sealed up in the Ministry of Household, and to check the food and medicine supplies that the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household had given to the Jinwuwei Army in recent years.
"Where is Prime Minister Lin?" After picking out the key people, the Empress asked in feigned ignorance.
"Answering back the Empress, the Emperor called Prime Minister Lin into the palace before, and now he is in Qing"an Hall." The Eunuch behind the queen said loudly.
He was not telling this to the Empress.
"Since Prime Minister Lin is already in the Qing"an Palace, I will send these three lords there as well and protect them well." After all, she was just an official order by the imperial court. She was not in power. Without evidence, she has no right to detain the three ministers, it can only be guarded.
"This old slave obeys the order." The Eunuch bowed to accept the order, took a few steps back, and summoned the palace guards to take the three ministers away.
The three ministers were naturally unwilling and opened their mouths to say something, but after seeing Xiao Tianyao, they closed their mouths one by one.
They were all smart people, they know that the Empress was just a decoration, and the person who has the right to speak was Prince Xiao, and it was useless for them to curse at the Empress at the moment.
"Empress, since it has been proved that benw.a.n.g came to the capital by order, can the seal of Xiao w.a.n.gfu be removed?" Before the matter was clarified, Xiao Tianyao first asked the Empress to remove the people outside Xiao w.a.n.gfu. He slapped the imperial court in the face, but the people present didn"t dare to say a word, the Empress even said with a smile: "Of course. But I don"t know the severity of the attack, why don"t this empress let the Ministry of Industry send someone to repair it first, how about it?" "
"No need, benw.a.n.g will take care of it." Xiao Tianyao coldly refused.
Although he will spend less time living in Prince Xiao w.a.n.gfu in the future, he will not allow others to interfere in his territory.
"Where will Xiao w.a.n.gye live before the mansion finish renovating? I remember that there is an empty courtyard next to Xiao w.a.n.gfu. Why don"t Xiao w.a.n.gye live there for a while?" The Empress seemed unable to see how arrogant Prince Xiao was. She was not angry but conniving.
Xiao Tianyao did not answer in time but gave the Empress a meaningful look, and a chill flashed in his black eyes: "No need, my wife is still outside the city, so I will go out of the city naturally, and when the matter is clarified, I will go return."
She dared to reach out to his mansion, the Empress was brave.
"Since that"s the case, I won"t force it." The Empress"s smile became more and more gentle, but only she knew how much her palms hurt.
The Emperor was finally defeated, but she had to face the powerful and aggressive Xiao Tianyao. G.o.d knows how much she hated it.
"If there is nothing wrong, benw.a.n.g will leave first." When Xiao Tianyao turned around, he glanced at all the civil and military officials in the palace, paused, then turned around and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard that there are frequent cases of unjust and wrongful cases in the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Your Majesty the Empress, it’s better to send someone to investigate as soon as possible.”
Xiao Tianyao"s words were like telling the Ministry of Punishment to release all the officials related to him.
"Before dark, I will let people find out." No matter what she thought in her heart, the empress can only cooperate.
"Benw.a.n.g will wait for the good news from the empress." This time, Prince Xiao left and left in a cool manner under the watchful eyes of everyone.
The Empress looked at Xiao Tianyao"s back, and the smile on her face became more and more gentle. Even when she saw Xiao Tianyao"s back, the smile on her face remained undiminished: "The Emperor"s dragon body is not in good health, and he cannot handle official duties. I will leave it to Xiao w.a.n.gye to decide big matters, and the small matters will be decided by Prime Minister You. If there is nothing else, this empress will leave first."
The Empress was not in a hurry to take power, she knows very well that as long as Xiao Tianyao was in the Eastern Country. She will not be able to fully truly control the country.
"This minister will leave first." The matter was a foregone conclusion, all the ministers doesn"t want to embarra.s.s themselves, so they bowed their heads one by one.
As soon as Xiao Tianyao left the palace, his guards led his horse forward: "w.a.n.gye!"
Xiao Tianyao took the reins and mounted the horse neatly: "You stay in the capital, if someone misbehaves, you can kill them first and then play!"
Xiao Tianyao didn"t lower his volume, it wasn"t an order to his subordinates but a warning to those restless people in the capital.
"This subordinate takes orders!" Xiao Tianyao"s subordinates would not deliberately lower their volume, and they spoke the four words with deafening sound and full of air.
Xiao Tianyao left without saying a word. At this time, the street was empty, Xiao Tianyao didn"t bother to run slowly when he saw this, he ran directly and rushed out of the city.
In the evening, Xiao Tianyao rushed to the Jinwuwei Army camp, handed over the horse to the deputy general who greeted him, and said as he walked: "How is the matter?"
"Answering back w.a.n.gye, everything is going well. All the reinforcements have been stopped, one thousand people have been injured, and the rest have surrendered."
"Well, where is w.a.n.gfei?" He left in a hurry before, and he didn"t know what happened to that woman, Lin Chujiu.
"w.a.n.gfei rested in the camp and never went out." The lieutenant said truthfully.
Xiao Tianyao waved his hand: "Back off."
Four Jinwuwei soldiers were guarding Lin Chujiu’s camp outside. These people were not to monitor Lin Chujiu but to protect her. As soon as Xiao Tianyao came over, he drove them away: “Everyone back down!”
In the tent, when Lin Chujiu heard Xiao Tianyao"s voice, she immediately put down the pen in her hand and got up to greet him.
When she regained consciousness, she had already walked to the door, and Xiao Tianyao also came in. It would be too hypocritical for her to turn back at this time.
"w.a.n.gye, you"re back!" In order not to embarra.s.s herself, Lin Chujiu tried her best to smile.
"Mmm." Xiao Tian"s eyes flashed with joy.
He said that he has never had high demands on Lin Chujiu, as long as Lin Chujiu fulfills his wife"s responsibilities. For example, just like this moment, when he comes back, she stood up to greet him.
Satisfied with Lin Chujiu"s performance, Xiao Tianyao took off his cloak and handed it over. Lin Chujiu, whose body reacted faster than her brain, took the cloak over without thinking, and then she was stunned!
What am I doing?
Lin Chujiu slapped her forehead and couldn"t help muttering in her heart.
"What"s wrong?" Xiao Tianyao paused, turned around, and saw Lin Chujiu staring at her cloak madly.
The corner of Xiao Tianyao"s mouth twitched uncomfortably. This woman, does she miss him that much? Can"t she be more reserved? It wasn"t enough to stare at his cloak, but also became a love-struck fool!
