Mind Reading: The villain wins after hearing the princess's inner voice

The tit-for-tat between the two made everyone shake their heads.

First, the Minister of Finance Niu Zhihuan stepped forward to persuade him, "Prime Minister Wang, you are already so old, why are you still arguing with a little girl like Anle?"

Wang Lingxiang was unhappy and spoke very impolitely.

"Marquis Wei Jing had just reported to His Majesty that Tao Zhihong had embezzled military funds, and Princess Anle jumped out without even noticing. What? Is she confessing without being asked?"

Xiao Lichen and Tao Zhihong had listened to Tao Yuwei's thoughts and knew why Wang Lingchang targeted her.

They both kept their composure.

However, other civil officials united to accuse Tao Yuwei, saying that it was not her turn as a little girl to make decisions in the court.

"This is the imperial court, not a place for you, Princess Anle, to run wild."

"You relied on your status as His Majesty's savior to bully the people of the entire capital. Now you have come here to humiliate important officials of the court. You should be dragged out of here and handed over to the Queen for punishment according to palace rules."

"What right does Princess Anle have to be so sarcastic about the affairs of the court? Your Majesty, she is not worthy of the title of a royal relative. She should be dragged out of the court, the General's Mansion should be investigated, evidence of Tao Zhihong's corruption should be collected, and he should be severely punished according to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

An arrogant little girl could secretly run to the court and show off her power to them in front of the emperor. It shows how arrogant she is.

On weekdays, I don't know who I am just because I rely on your Majesty's slight favor.

They were well aware of His Majesty's usual attitude of protecting Tao Yuwei, but this time he went too far, even wanting to interfere in court affairs and insulting them, the civil officials, at will.

This is something they cannot tolerate. No matter how much His Majesty favors her, they will not be pushovers if they unite.

She could scold Wei Jinghou and Wang Xiang without any scruples, making them lose all dignity, and she could scold them.

They felt very embarrassed to have a little girl come and point at their noses and scold them.

Seeing that everyone was united and stood up to speak for him, Wang Lingchang felt much better after being angered by Tao Yuwei.

"Your Majesty, since Marquis Wei Jing said that someone has presented you with evidence of General Tao's embezzlement of military pay, could you please send someone to the Imperial Study to get it and clarify the matter in front of everyone, so as to avoid wrongly accusing Tao Zhihong and causing Princess Anle to be hostile to me?"

"Uncle Emperor, please send someone to bring me the charges against my father. I want to see what kind of evidence can allow Marquis Wei Jing to swear that my father embezzled military pay."

Tao Yuwei glanced at Wang Lingchang coldly, not afraid of the so-called evidence at all.

The ministers now turned their eyes to Tao Zhihong who was standing there, and carefully observed his expression, but did not find any panic on his face.

Xiao Lichen looked at the solemn expression on Emperor Jianchang's face. He sat in his wheelchair and saluted, "Your Majesty, Xiao Yuwei had not received any news about this matter before. It is my fault."

When reminded by these people, Emperor Jianchang remembered the wooden box that the Seventh Princess had personally given him, and he sighed inwardly.

The thing I didn't want to face still happened.

He said to the eunuch Zhao Chong who was standing beside him, "You personally take people to the imperial study and bring back the wooden box on the imperial desk."

Zhao Chong immediately led his men out of the hall.

Wang Lingchang looked at Xiao Lichen and said, "Prince Xiao, as the commander of the Xiaoyu Guard, you did not collect the news about General Tao's corruption of military pay in the Jingji camp in advance. This is a serious fault. I beg Your Majesty to revoke Prince Xiao's position. I suspect that Prince Xiao has selfish motives and is a little close to Princess Anle. He is no longer worthy of being promoted to the commander of the Xiaoyu Guard."

"I have received a piece of news. Someone is saying that Prince Xiao is going to get engaged to Princess Anle, and in order to please her, he has sent people to deliberately target the Sixth Prince."

Don't think he doesn't know that Princess Anle was able to come to the court thanks to Xiao Lichen's work.

Wang Lingchang's words caused an uproar in the court.
