Tao Yuwei's sharp and sincere words made Emperor Jianchang nod his head continuously.

"Anle's words make sense. Come here, Marquis Wei Jing has framed a loyal and good person and is suspected of treason. He will be sent to the prison department for investigation. If there are any violations of laws and disciplines, they will be punished as well."

Emperor Jianchang waved his hand, and two armored imperial guards immediately came to Marquis Wei Jing, took off his official hat, and took him down.

Marquis Wei Jing couldn't believe that he had suddenly become a prisoner, and he immediately cried out that he was innocent.

"Your Majesty, I am innocent. I have never had any intention of rebellion, and I have never had any dealings with Tian Linwen. Princess Anle is lying and slandering my crimes. Your Majesty, please do not believe her lies."

Marquis Wei Jing was forcibly taken out of the court by the Imperial Guards. His voice gradually faded away and could no longer be heard.

Inside the hall, no minister stood up to speak for him.

They have deeply felt His Majesty's anger and cannot let the fire be directed upon themselves.

The look they gave Tao Yuwei changed from contempt to fear.

The Lord of Anle County is not very old, but he speaks with great authority.

She dares to speak out anything regardless of the occasion.

What she said just now hit the nail on the head, namely pointing out that Wei Jinghou and Tian Linwen were suspected of colluding, and hinting that her father had a great influence in the army, and being accused of embezzling military pay would shake the morale of the army, so as to avoid disappointing the soldiers who were defending their country in various parts of the Great Zhou.

His Majesty took the opportunity to reorganize the government and tried to crack down on these people again and again.

Alas, today’s grand court meeting was too long and tiring.

Now we can finally calm down and announce the end of the court session.

When you get home, be sure to tell your family not to mess with Princess Anle, the Rakshasa woman.

Otherwise, it will be difficult to get out of it safely.

Tao Yuwei was not surprised that Wei Jinghou was detained for investigation.

Your Majesty has sent Marquis Wei Jing to the prison, so he has no chance of survival.

Just when the ministers were hoping that Emperor Jianchang would announce his retirement from court, they heard Tao Yuwei's accusation again.

"Excuse me, Your Majesty, who is it that claims to have evidence of my father's crime and presents it to you? I suspect that the other party is also involved in the case of treason. Please handle it carefully, Your Majesty, and bring this person to the court to clear my father's name."

Seeing that Tao Yuwei was still holding on to this matter, Emperor Jianchang's eyes turned stern.

Thinking about the person behind Tian Linwen recruiting private soldiers, the anger in his heart was hard to dissipate.

It's time for his sons to tighten their skin.

"Someone, go and invite the Seventh Princess."

Emperor Jianchang was a good person in that he never concealed the mistakes made by his children.

He would never punish his children in secret for the sake of the royal family's reputation.

Whenever he made a mistake, he would set an example and punish his children in front of the court officials.

This can be clearly seen from the last time the Fourth Prince Xiao Xiaocheng caused chaos in the palace.

Emperor Jianchang was a monarch who dared to face the fact that his son had cheated on him and announced the punishment.

This also made the royal princesses and princes of the Great Zhou much more low-key than previous royal family members.

After hearing this, Tao Yuwei curled the corners of her mouth in satisfaction.

The court officials' opinions of her had reached the point where they avoided her as much as possible.

Could she please forgive him and stop pestering him?

If Tao Yuwei knew what they were thinking, she would definitely scold them so much that they would be embarrassed to face anyone.

What a sarcastic remark. Unless the knife cuts someone's skin, no one will feel the pain.

Her father was almost killed due to many schemes. What good would it be for her not to pursue the matter?

When the seventh princess Xiao Zixuan was brought to the court, she smiled with joy.

Especially after she walked into the hall and saw Tao Yuwei and Tao Zhihong, she became even more certain that it was the wooden box she presented to her father that played a role.

The task I did for my Sixth Brother must have been almost completed successfully.

Anle and her father have no chance of escaping from this vortex.

Her father had asked her to come and she had to testify. When the Tao family was brought to justice, her sixth brother was the first to discover evidence of their guilt. She had to let her father know that this was the credit of her sixth brother.

Now, the Sixth Prince can be released from house arrest and gain the trust of his father.

"Father, General Tao embezzled military pay. You must stand up for the soldiers and have Tao Zhihong, this parasite in the court, torn into pieces."

The seventh princess walked into the palace and the first thing she said was to condemn Tao Zhihong.

Emperor Jianchang's face suddenly became terribly gloomy.

"Who asked you to present the contents of the wooden box?"

Xiao Zixuan looked at Tao Yuwei, who had an unhappy expression, with an unfriendly look, and she was in a very happy mood.

Anle, that idiot, finally got a chance to trample her under his feet.

No matter how much the emperor values ​​her, he can never forgive the mistakes made by the general who guards the country.

From then on, she became the princess of the Great Zhou who was most valued by her father.

Thinking about the evidence she presented this time, she can be regarded as one of the heroes who exposed the crimes of important officials in the court. My father must have a new respect for her in his heart!

Wang Lingchang, who was standing at the front, took the opportunity to look at Xiao Zixuan who walked into the hall with everyone else, and kept winking at the Seventh Princess, secretly signaling her to pass on the message.

Seventh Princess, please stop talking nonsense, or you will regret it.

Unfortunately, Xiao Zixuan thought that Emperor Jianchang had already confirmed the fact that Tao Zhihong had embezzled military pay, and he called her over just to ask her where she got the evidence.

"Father, the wooden box was delivered to me by my Sixth Brother. I know this is a serious matter and dare not delay. I will present the evidence of the crime committed by the Great General to you for your decision."

After hearing this, Emperor Jianchang burst into laughter in anger.

"What a good old Sixth Brother! I ordered him to stay in the palace to reflect on his mistakes, but he dared to commit the crime of deceiving the emperor and privately interfered in the affairs of the court. I told him that since he couldn't calm down, he might as well reflect on his mistakes somewhere else."

As soon as Emperor Jianchang finished speaking, Xiao Zixuan realized something was wrong. She quickly opened her mouth to plead for the Sixth Prince Xiao Yangyao, but was interrupted by Xiao Lichen.

"Your Majesty, I have a memorial to present to you."

He took out a memorial from his sleeve and asked Zhao Chong to bring it to Emperor Jianchang.

After opening the memorial and reading its contents, Emperor Jianchang became so angry that his eyes turned black and he almost fainted.

"Good job, Old Six, you have great ambitions. It seems that he has grown wings and has been dissatisfied with me for a long time. He even secretly trained secret guards and established a secret guard camp without permission!"

"When I received this news, I was a little skeptical, so I sent a team of men to disguise themselves and sneak into Cuiyun Mountain outside the capital to investigate. After confirming that the news was true, we surrounded those people early this morning. They resisted stubbornly, and most of them bit the poison in their mouths and committed suicide. The remaining few were captured alive, and they confessed the person behind the scenes, who was none other than the Sixth Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince of Han."

When the court officials heard such important news again, their hearts could hardly bear it.

If this Prince Xiao does not take action, then it’s fine, but once he does, there must be solid evidence.

Wang Lingchang was deeply tormented at the moment. Thinking of the time when he had previously reported Xiao Lichen to the emperor, he felt very uneasy.

Xiao Lichen's words sounded like a buzzing in the Seventh Princess's ears.

"You are talking nonsense. My Sixth Brother would never do anything so treasonous. Father, please do not believe the lies told by this remnant of the Duke of Zhuguo."

Xiao Zixuan's harsh words made Emperor Jianchang's anger reach its peak.
