Yang Gong secretly screamed, "Oh no," Zhou Yi might not be able to withstand the emperor's power.
He took a step forward and stood up.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou, as an important minister of the imperial court, just has some doubts about the imprisonment of King Zhenbei. He is always willing to barbarize the three tribes. This is not the behavior of a wise king."
Huazhi sneered.
You people have agreed to make progress and retreat together. You are talking nonsense and confusing right and wrong. Are you trying to fool me?
He immediately snorted and said, "Don't you understand what I just said? If you are right, you will be rewarded, and if you are wrong, you will be punished. Minister Yang, do you think I was wrong?"
"Your Majesty, Mr. Zhou is just a loyal and patriotic person. Please don't chill the hearts of your loyal ministers."
The new Minister of Justice also stood up.
Huazhi tapped her fingers on the table.
Then I remembered that this Minister of the Ministry of Justice seemed to be recommended by the Ministry of Personnel.
This Yang Gong is really good at it.
"Your Majesty, please think twice."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
All the courtiers were seen kneeling down.
It was as if Huazhi had done something heinous.
Huazhi couldn't help but narrowed her eyes.
The Yang family has so much energy that they dare to put pressure on the emperor. The Yang family has kept quiet these years. It seems that I still underestimate them.
"King You imprisoned King Zhenbei, please Your Majesty to vindicate King Zhenbei."
"Your Majesty, please release King Zhenbei and punish King You severely."
"Your Majesty, please release King Zhenbei and punish King You severely."
…
In the court hall, all the ministers said one after another.
"What if I don't?"
Huazhi slapped the table, and her cold voice echoed in the hall.
Yang Gong and others looked ugly.
This is a stalemate.
"If Your Majesty does not release King Zhenbei, I will be unable to kneel here for a long time."
Zhou Yi, the Minister of Rites, gained the support of many people and became bolder.
Huazhi suddenly stood up and said angrily: "Do you want to force me into the palace?"
"Zhenbei Linnuo has committed corruption and perverted the law. The evidence is conclusive. He will be escorted back to Beijing in the near future. At that time, I will have Dali Temple review him."
"If he is not guilty, I will naturally clear his name. If he is guilty, you are colluding with the King of Zhenbei and colluding secretly, and I will not be lenient."
After saying that, he grabbed the memorial on the case and smashed it on the ground.
The hearts of all the ministers below were skipping a beat.
Heaven is as powerful as prison.
The four female officials, Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum, were so frightened that they fell to the ground.
All the ministers also knelt on the ground.
The emperor was angry and laid down millions of corpses. At this moment, Huazhi was furious, making everyone feel terrified.
Huazhi looked at the ministers below with cold eyes.
"This world belongs to me. I hope you can correct your attitude and know who to obey."
After saying that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.
Yang Gong's heart trembled when he heard this.
The emperor's words clearly meant something.
Does His Majesty the Emperor feel that he has threatened her imperial power?
Yang Gong felt regret for a moment in his heart, wondering if he was wrong to do this.
But soon, this thought was suppressed in his heart.
What about the emperor? At that time, the Yang family and the winner were both four major families. The winner could ascend to the throne without the support of the Yang family.
The Yang family is not short of a winner, and the people above the throne are also nothing special.
…
Huazhi was furious, and the civil and military officials in the court were frightened.
After Huazhi left, all the ministers stood up one by one.
Walking out of the Golden Palace, small groups gathered together and talked in low voices.
"Is the charge of King Zhenbei true? He actually took the free pay of 30,000 soldiers and horses. This is too courageous."
"There is no basis for what you say. Who knows if Prince You fabricated the evidence."
"The King of Zhenbei is the God of War in Great Xia. Without him, there would be no peace in the border for ten years."
"Then how did King You capture King Zhenbei? King Zhenbei is a tenth-grade martial artist, and he has generals on his left and right."
"I heard that King You dispatched a mysterious army at that time. It should be soldiers and horses scheduled for Youzhou. His Majesty must have given King You a secret order to mobilize his troops before he left. As for the capture of King Zhenbei, it must have been Zhenbei. Wang is arrogant and fell into Li Qingxuan's scheme."
"What's the plan?"
"I heard that there is a medicine in the world that can make people lose their power by taking just a little bit of it under their fingernails..."
The ministers said anything privately, some were supporting King Zhenbei, and some were watching the excitement.
After Yang Gong returned to the mansion, the other two heads of the aristocratic families quickly came to visit him.
They are Zhao Teng, the head of the Zhao family, and Dong Yun, the head of the Dong family.
"Two heads of the family, you are here."
Yang Gong saw the two of them and hurriedly had tea served to them.
"Today in the court, I was almost expelled from the three tribes. The empress was very fierce."
Yang Gong looked scared, but his tone was teasing.
Of the three masters, only Yang Gong was an official in the court, and the other two only had titles but no actual duties.
"I have also heard from the children of the family that once the King of Zhenbei falls, Li Qingxuan will become the top leader of the military and hold a large number of troops, which will become the biggest disaster."
Dong Yun said worriedly.
"I don't think so." Yang Gong shook his head: "I have received news that the emperor has asked Guo Huai to come out and take over the position of commander-in-chief at Beiguguan. I'm afraid it will be announced to the world soon."
"This shows that Youwang Li Qingxuan has no ability to command troops."
"Although Guo Huai is not from our three families, we can also turn him into a member of our three families."
Upon hearing Yang Gong's words, both Dong Yun and Zhao Teng's eyes lit up.
"Brother Yang means that making Guo Huai the second Zhenbei King is really high." Dong Yun gave a thumbs up.
"What happened in the court today, you two must be able to see that the emperor has hardened his wings and doesn't take our three families seriously anymore."
Yang Gong sighed.
"The reason why the winner was able to seize the throne in the first place was because of the efforts of the three of us families to help him defeat him. Now that he has secured the throne, he wants to kick us three families away. The cunning rabbit will be cooked by the lackeys."
Zhao Teng said coldly: "In my opinion, we need to give that empress some color."
"Three days ago, I went to Fahua Mountain to visit..."
After hearing Zhao Teng's words, Yang Gong and Dong Yun's expressions changed wildly at the same time.
"Did you go to meet those people? Have you forgotten how the previous dynasty died?"
…
Outside Beiguguan, a hundred miles away.
Marshal Bo'er of the Northern Yuan Dynasty was riding on horseback.
As a rare general in the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Bo'er once pushed the famous Xia general Zhang Wenlong to the ground and rubbed him. The Xia army did not dare to step out of Beigu Pass.
It was not until King Zhenbei appeared that his glory came to an end.
In these years of fighting against the King of Zhenbei, he lost more than he won, and he didn't even dare to show his head.
Now that he learned that King Zhenben was imprisoned, he suddenly felt that he could do it again.
Without King Zhenbei, who in the world can suppress him?
"General, 200,000 soldiers and horses have been assembled. Please give the order, General."
Looking at the 200,000 Beiyuan warriors behind him, Bo'er was full of heroic spirit.
He said loudly: "Listen to the order and follow our general to level Beiguguan and set off."
"kill."
"kill."
"kill…"
Two hundred thousand people shouted in unison with murderous intent.
Bo'er scolded and waved his riding whip, and the horse's hoofs were raised.
The Beiyuan army advanced like a tide.
The front of the army points directly in the direction of Beiguguan.
