Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?
Chapter 400 The Stupid Queen 13
The troops gathered outside the city. Xiao Lie sat on a tall horse, looking even more majestic. Zhao Zhuo rode closer and said, "My Lord, are we not setting off yet?"
Xiao Lie held the reins, his eyes fixed on the distance. A huge carriage escorted by the imperial guards was approaching the direction of the army. Zhao Zhuo followed the prince's line of sight and was stunned for a moment: "Your Majesty is coming to see you off personally?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lie lightly pulled up the reins. The horse stamped its hooves and turned its head. Xiao Lie gave the order: "March!"
Zhao Zhuo exclaimed, and hurriedly followed: "Your Majesty, are you not waiting for His Majesty?"
Xiao Lie clamped his legs into the horse's belly, and the horse's hooves flew, putting some distance between him and Zhao Zhuo.
Zhao Zhuo was speechless. Did he say something wrong again?
The imperial carriage stopped at the place where the team had stopped just now. Hua Xia lifted the curtain, her lips slightly parted, and she looked at Xiao Lie's leaving back in silence for a long while. This man always had ways to make people angry. Hua Xia stretched out her fist towards him, wanting to hit him.
"go back."
She will never come to see me off again!
Bye-Bye!
The battle situation on the border would be sent back to Quejing from time to time. Xiao Lie was a veteran of many battles, and under his leadership, the Western Barbarians gradually showed signs of defeat.
The atmosphere in the court was filled with jubilation after the blood transfusion. Gao Huang seldom participated in discussions, but he was clearly planning something big in secret.
The officials did not have time to rejoice over the news of the defeat of the Western Barbarians. The gates of Quejing were tightly closed. They would not be opened without an imperial decree in broad daylight. The officials were attending the morning court session when the eunuchs waiting outside rushed into the palace, shouting in panic: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty! It's bad. Someone is rebelling."
There was a moment of silence, followed by an explosion of noise.
"Rebellion? Who wants to rebel?"
"The palace gates are closed? Who said the city gates are not open?"
"If the city gates aren't open, then there will be a rebellion!"
"Xiao Lie is not here, could it be... it's him?"
"Who else could it be except him? The King of Zhenbei has gone to the border!"
"Protect His Majesty! You are a bunch of cowards!"
With a powerful enemy at hand, there were signs of a quarrel in the palace. Yuan Jian stepped forward lightly and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, follow me to the rear to avoid it."
Before Hua Xia could answer, a figure walked in from outside the Golden Throne Hall. He was dressed in a neat riding outfit and strode into the hall. The noisy hall suddenly became silent because of his arrival, and you could hear a pin drop.
"Your Majesty, I am late." Gao Huang's eyelids drooped in an evil arc, and he looked straight at his superior without any respect in his eyes.
Hua Xia: “…” He’s late. Is she going to ask him to sit down?
Gao Huang turned around and opened his arms: "What are you going to discuss today?"
He pointed at the dragon chair on Hua Xia's body and said, "How about discussing changing someone else to sit in that position?"
No one dared to forget the bloody events of the past. Gao Huang's methods of eliminating dissidents were extremely cruel. The emperor believed in one side and appointed treacherous ministers. Before Xiao Lie came back, Gao Huang was the one who had the final say in the court and the country.
Hence, the title of Nine Thousand Years Old.
In the past, court officials did not dare to speak.
However, there was still a voice saying, "Gao Huang, you are a eunuch, how dare you rebel?!"
There were many such voices, and the court officials were awakened. They didn't know when His Majesty had replaced many officials, and Gao Huang's former lackeys were no longer clamoring.
Could it be that His Majesty has already discovered...
The anger of the civil servants has no effect.
The imperial guards with swords rushed in, their blades shining coldly out of their sheaths, and the noise in the hall suddenly became much quieter.
Still someone said: "Protect His Majesty."
The court officials gathered in front of Hua Xia, of course a few of them stepped aside and chose to protect themselves.
Hua Xia didn't recognize anyone, but there was Yuan Jian. She took out a small notebook made of rice paper from somewhere, raised her slender jade finger and pointed at the few people huddled in the corner: "Write down their names for me."
The few people who chose to protect themselves looked at each other in bewilderment. His Majesty could hardly protect himself, and yet he still wanted to keep accounts. Did he want to settle accounts later?
Yuan Jian took it. If he had been one of those who kept a low profile in the past, he would now be willing to follow His Majesty through life and death. He couldn't help but feel a little sad and moved at the same time. He bent over, took the brush and dipped it in ink, then slowly opened the book. There were actually words on the first page.
Yuan Jian looked closely and saw the first one read, "Little Yuanzi: one tael, two taels and five cents, one tael and three cents..."
There are a few familiar names below, including many palace maids, eunuchs and guards...
As the person closest to His Majesty, Yuan Jian must have been the one who was noted the most whenever he was present. His Majesty even made room for him. For a moment, all the talk about the Nine Thousand Year Old Man's rebellion and the worry about his life were forgotten, and he held the small brush in his hand without moving.
He raised his head with a sad look in his eyes: "Your Majesty, didn't you say you just remembered it for fun?"
"How..." How come you remembered so much so clearly?
It doesn't look like you're just remembering it for fun?
Hua Xia glanced at him and said, "Did I pay you less monthly salary?"
Yuan Jian shook his head: "Not really."
The system was also very curious: [Host, what do you want to use it for? ]
Hua Xia: "It's boring."
She said quietly, "Not everything you do has to be useful. It can also be useless."
Asking Yuan Jian to remember people is just to amuse these people.
A hint of sarcasm flashed across Gao Huang's eyes. He was sure that the empress was helpless at this moment. In the past, she had to be cautious about many things. If she rebelled rashly, she would probably lose her power and the country would fall apart. Now, Xiao Lieyi wanted to take the lead.
Moreover, he was the one who instigated Li Zhao to issue the decree because he was concerned about the prestige of the Xiao family in the army and wanted to eliminate them early. It was impossible for Xiao Lie not to find out. If it weren't for the invasion of the Western Barbarians, he would be the one who would be imprisoned at this time.
"Does your majesty have anything else to say?"
Hua Xia blinked and said, "Please help me approve the memorial, Shuan Q."
Gao Huang thought she was crazy and sneered, "Your Majesty, have you ever thought about reducing my power until today?"
He added, "Your Majesty, could you have guessed that Xiao Lie would leave Quejing without you? When I was still in Kyoto, he was dismissive of your Majesty's safety. If Your Majesty had thought of today, would you still support him?"
Hua Xia nodded, what nonsense are you talking about?
In Xiao Lie's eyes, we are a team, okay?
"Your Majesty, there will be a day when you are speechless."
Hua Xia: "...Are you deep in the ice?"
Gao Huang paused, not understanding, but his noble character at the moment did not allow him to ask.
"Someone, lock up Li Zhao."
When the court officials saw that His Majesty was facing the rebels, yet he was still calm and composed, as if it was nothing, they all hoped that His Majesty would use some powerful moves to resist.
The eyes are sharp.
I heard that Li has trained a group of secret guards all over the country, who only appear when the emperor is in danger. Could it be...
Suddenly, under everyone's expectant gaze, their Majesty raised his hand.
coming.
coming.
Secret guards spread all over the world.
Gao Huang frowned and said coldly, "Speak."
Hua Xia asked, "Can I be locked up in my own bedroom?"
Gao Huang said nothing, but he didn't object either.
Hua Xia added: "Call Xiao Yuanzi and my little guard to come together, there is something to do."
Yuan Jian suddenly knew what His Majesty was going to do...
Either playing cards or playing mahjong...
Your Majesty...
