Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space
Chapter 875: Do Your Duty
Lin Jing suddenly realized that he also had complaints against the emperor, so after noticing Ye Xuan's thoughts, he not only did not stop him, but also wanted to jump in and get involved.
He poured another cup of tea and drank it all in one gulp. Lin Jing smiled bitterly and said, "It seems that your Majesty is very unpopular."
Hearing his sudden sigh, Chen Changli looked at him meaningfully, shook his head and sighed: "No matter how unpopular he is, he is still His Majesty. As subjects, we must do our duty well."
Lin Jing played with the teacup in both hands, with a faint smile on his face: "Duty? Who doesn't have to do their duty as a minister? But the emperor is foolish and unjust. If we continue to do our duty, I'm afraid we will really die."
Ye Xuan deeply agreed: "Your Majesty does not take us, the ministers, seriously at all. Rather than being treated as idle chess pieces by His Majesty, it is better to give it a try."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Chen Changli, and suddenly, with an emphasis on what he was thinking about, he said, "I have this idea because His Majesty has abandoned me and is planning to uproot my Ye family."
"I care about my children and my family. Your Majesty has such thoughts, how can I sit back and watch?"
He deliberately said this in front of Chen Changli just to tell him one thing, that is, he had noticed the emperor's other thoughts.
If it weren't for the emperor's coercion, he would still be Ye Xuan, who was loyal to the emperor.
Now he is no longer loyal to the emperor, but he does not really want to kill the emperor. He will only let the emperor become the emperor emeritus and live out his days in peace.
If Chen Changli had other ideas and contacted the prince, then he and the prince should plan how to deal with the emperor, and he should not be involved. He would not let himself be charged with the crime of murdering the emperor.
His meaning was actually very clear, which was that he hoped the prince would not doubt him. After all, if a minister did not do his duty well and instead rebelled because of some of the emperor's little thoughts, no matter who knew about it, he would be criticized.
Ye Xuan wanted to leave a way out for himself and his family and didn't want to be despised by others.
Besides, he is old. If anything happens to the emperor, he will be greatly shocked and might even go with the emperor.
Therefore, he would only leave a way out for his family and would not live too long. Therefore, if Chen Changli wanted to help the prince ascend the throne, he had to listen to his words and say good things about him in front of the prince.
Chen Changli looked at him, met his extremely serious eyes, and couldn't help but understand the intention of his words.
Rubbing his forehead, Chen Changli smiled and said, "I can contact His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Lord Ye, do you have anything to say to General Xiao Ye?"
When Ye Xuan heard this, he knew that Chen Changli had agreed to his request, and he said with a smile, "I'm fine, I don't have anything to say to him."
He then sighed and said, "I am only worried about the situation in the Western Territory. I hope that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can turn the tide."
Chen Changli didn't dare to make any promises to him, so he could only calmly say, "My people have already gone to the Western Territory, and they should have caught up with the Crown Prince now. The Crown Prince is a smart man, and he will surely figure out the situation in the Western Territory soon."
"If the situation in the Western Territory is not good, the Crown Prince will find a way to contact us. Then we will try to give him advice and ensure that he will be safe in the Western Territory."
When he said the last few words, Chen Changli didn't hold much hope in his heart.
Since Tu Yuanzhou had made so many preparations, how could he be beaten back so easily? Besides, Princess An Qing was still collecting information for Tu Yuanzhou.
Tu Yuanzhou's advantage is extremely great, unless the emperor has restricted him from the beginning and made it impossible for him to go deep into Dajing through the western border.
However, even if the emperor has made a lot of preparations, Tu Yuanzhou will not fall into his trap, and this battle situation may not be so easy to calm down.
Chen Changli believed that even if he went to the battlefield, there was no way to drive Tu Yuanzhou out in a short period of time.
"Master Ye, although General Ye is a weak scholar, if he is determined, he can also make achievements in the military camp."
"Besides, Zhao Xu is here too. With Zhao Xu here, General Zhao will not sit idly by and watch the affairs of the Western Territory. So Lord Ye might as well tell General Ye some of his ideas and ask him to keep in touch with you."
"Don't worry, I will also try my best to discuss some things with the prince so that he can have someone available."
Ye Xuan heard his subtext and understood what he meant. He immediately gave Lin Jing a look, telling him to cheer up and not to be upset about his words, lest he be noticed by others when he returned.
"Chen Changli, Lin Jing and I actually have something to do, but it's not appropriate for you to get involved."
Ye Xuan thought about it and continued speaking.
"I found that many of the civil and military officials have a close relationship with Princess An Qing. I thought they had taken refuge with Princess An Qing, and that's why they were doing things for her in private."
"But after I investigated further, I found one thing: these people would ask doctors to come to their homes every once in a while, and those doctors would die after a while."
"In other words, the doctor's disappearance is just a small matter, and I was also worried that these things would implicate the Ye family, so I spent a month investigating the people related to these people, and then I found that they were controlled by Gu worms."
Speaking of the poisonous insects, Ye Xuan couldn't help but shudder and his face didn't look very good.
"The poisonous insects are not good things. The doctors those people found couldn't help them get rid of the poisonous insects, so they will naturally lose their lives."
"Poisonous insect?" Chen Changli muttered to himself. He thought of the woman who appeared in the royal manor.
The woman mentioned the poisonous insects and was about to take back an old doctor who was good at making poisonous insects. Could it be that all the poisonous insects that infected the civil and military officials were related to her?
When Chen Changli had this thought in his mind, he immediately determined that the woman was the Liu Yaoyao mentioned by Wan Shufang.
But why did she go to the Royal Manor? Wasn't that where Princess An Qing set a trap for the Queen?
Liu Yaoyao did not encounter any obstacles when she appeared in the royal manor. Even the housekeeper of the royal manor obeyed her orders. This means that Liu Yaoyao may have already taken control of the royal manor.
The doctor kidnapped by Princess An Qing was placed in the royal manor, and Liu Yaoyao was going to put a curse on these people. Chen Changli had to suspect that Princess An Qing and Liu Yaoyao knew each other, and they were cooperating with each other and would do anything to achieve their goals.
"I have also made some discoveries about the poisonous insects, but I didn't know that the man had attacked the civil and military officials." Chen Changli smiled, "It seems that these people are hiding very deeply. If we uproot them, the whole Dajing will be in turmoil. I just don't know if Your Majesty has the courage to do so."
