Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

At this moment, Xie Anfeng wished he could strangle her to death.

But things are different now. Empress Xie is no longer that bright sister, but a powerful empress who calls herself "I"!

Moreover, her own daughter and grandson were still in her hands.

"Empress, it is a taboo for the harem to interfere in government affairs. To be in the court and listen to orders is a mistake on top of a mistake. Please, let me go!"

"Master Xie, are you scared?"

"Yes!"

He is the head of the family and is responsible for the honor and safety of the Xie family. What Queen Xie did was a disaster for the entire Xie family.

"What are you afraid of? Those with the surname Wei are either dead or have fled. In the next two days, I will deal with those with the surname Zhou. The Xie family will be the only one in power. From now on, the daughters of the Xie family will no longer be used as tools for marriage alliances!" Empress Xie said, "I will issue an edict to reward the Xie family generously."

Xie Anfeng closed his eyes and replied dryly: "Thank you for your kindness, Madam. I will not accept any reward without merit. Xie does not ask for any reward, but only for peace."

Empress Xie smiled and said, "Of course I will reward you! Isn't it what my brother and mother have always been asking for that Xie's honor and favor are above all else? I will satisfy you!"

Xie An vomited three liters of old blood. The Xie family wanted to prosper, but they never thought of rebellion!

"I intend to confer titles on my elder brother the title of Prince Gong, my second younger brother the title of Prince of Chu, my mother the title of Empress Dowager, and my aunts the title of Princesses."

Zhao Zhao was named Crown Princess!

Xie Anfeng looked at Queen Xie in despair, and the ice in his eyes turned into invisible sharp blades.

"I don't agree! Please let Xie go, Queen!"

"I am the daughter of the Xie family. I cannot forget my roots. I must stand together with the Xie family through thick and thin. I will definitely reward you!!"

The two men were arguing, one wanted a reward, the other refused sternly.

The guards at the gate reported: "Your Majesty, someone threw Princess Yurong at the gate of the palace, along with a letter!"

"Gao Quan, present it!" Empress Xie said to Xie Anfeng, "Master Xie, please go back and wait for the imperial edict."

When Xie Anfeng came out of the palace, he felt dizzy and his vision was black.

He staggered into the car and returned home.

When he left the palace, he saw the imperial guards bringing Princess Yurong to the imperial study.

The next day, the court.

Emperor Hui sat in the court in a daze, not saying a word, while Empress Xie sat in front of the dragon table, discussing state affairs with court officials.

"Thank you, sir. I heard that there is a secret letter in your study?"

Empress Xie suddenly asked Xie Anfeng a question.

"I am an official appointed by the court and the head of the Xie family. Every document I write is confidential. I wonder which letter Your Majesty is asking about?"

"Oh, Lord Xie, why do you have to pretend to be ignorant when you know the truth? I might as well remind Lord Xie: the document that your father, Prince Jing, the imprisoned Elder Liu, Duke Xun, and the late Marquis Pingyang were conspiring to sign!"

There was an uproar in the court.

Signed by the late old master of the Xie family, it must be a secret letter from at least 20 or 30 years ago, right? What kind of letter could have been kept secret for so long?

Xie Anfeng said calmly: "I don't know. My old father didn't tell me about such a letter."

"You won't cry until you see the coffin! If you hand it over voluntarily, I can guarantee your safety. If you search it out, I can't protect Xie Mansion either."

"No, I have never seen such a secret letter." Xie Anfeng said firmly.

All the civil and military officials in the court bowed their heads and remained silent. Ever since the Empress took over the court, her relationship with Lord Xie had deteriorated.

Empress Xie looked at him, then at the ministers. The "people involved in the secret letter" that Princess Yurong had told her about were not here today.

Old Master Xie has passed away, Marquis Pingyang has also passed away, Duke Xun died in the battle in the northwest this time, Lord Liu is in prison, and Prince Jing has taken sick leave and no longer attends court since she took charge of the government.

Empress Xie sneered and said, "Then search immediately."

Xie Anfeng said angrily: "Your Majesty said to search my house, so you search my house. This is completely disregarding the court's orders and disregarding my dignity."

"Once we find the secret letter, I will discuss the law with you."

Ling Xun also stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it is inappropriate to search the minister's residence without any basis. I hope Your Majesty will think twice."

Many officials stood up and said, "Your Majesty, please think twice," while others said, "Your Majesty, please think twice."

Empress Xie curled her lips and said, "Of course I have a basis for this, otherwise why wouldn't I search the residences of other court officials?"

Ling Xun said again: "My Lady..."

Your Majesty? Ha! Empress Xie looked at the newly appointed Imperial Censor Wu.

Censor Wu immediately raised his tablet and said, "Your Majesty, I want to report to the Minister of Works, Mr. Ling. The army is fighting the enemy in the northwest, Your Majesty is seriously ill, and the country is in crisis. Mr. Ling went to places of entertainment and did those filthy things. It is really a disgrace to the civilized world and against human ethics!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the officials immediately looked at Ling Xun with sidelong glances.

Ling Xun blushed and looked at the sanctimonious people like Ma. Suddenly, he understood what he had been puzzled about for days.

The aftereffects of Huiyue Villa are waiting here!

The blush on his face disappeared, and he stood there openly, not making any excuses, not caring.

"Lord Ling, is what Censor Wu said true?" Empress Xie asked calmly.

Ling Xun said calmly, "If I say, 'I can walk through a sea of ​​flowers without getting a single leaf on me,' would Your Majesty believe me?"

"You've gone, and you're still trying to make excuses? You're so shameless! Remove your post as Lingxun's Minister of Works and demote him to the rank of seventh-rank official."

A seventh-rank official would no longer be qualified to attend court before the emperor.

At noon, the palace eunuch Gao Quan came to Xie's house to announce the imperial edict, and the Imperial Guards followed the order to search Xie's house for the secret letters of treason that were hidden in his house.

Old Madam Xie's hands were shaking. How could the Xie family be plotting rebellion? Where did the secret letter come from?

The old man stood firmly, leaning on his dragon-headed cane.

As long as she stays alive, her children and grandchildren will have a backbone.

Xie Anfeng looked at the ferocious Imperial Guards and his heart sank to the bottom of the water.

After searching for three full hours, nothing was found.

The leader of the Imperial Guards turned many of Xie Anfeng's documents into a mess, and even damaged Xu Zhiyan's portrait.

Xie Anfeng held the portrait in his arms, his face dark and he said nothing.

Gao Quan had no choice but to lead the Imperial Guards away.

The next day, Xie Anfeng did not go to court as usual. At noon, he, Madam Xie, and the elders of the clan, dressed in plain clothes, walked out of the house step by step.

However, he unexpectedly met Wang Fen, Xie Jue, Gu Chongjin and others on the way, who were riding fast horses back to the capital to report that the victorious soldiers returning from the northwest were already ten miles outside the city.

Gu Shaoyu and the soldiers returning from the northwest will be back at the capital soon.

Xie Anfeng, whose mood had already reached the freezing point, hurriedly pulled Xie Jue and asked, "Master Gu, are your brothers back?"

Xie Jue didn't understand what was going on, and said happily: "Uncle, everyone is back, just ten miles outside the city."

Xie Anfeng suddenly became anxious. What should he do?

Your Majesty (your two majesties), will you catch Lord Gu and Xie Yu in one fell swoop?

He asked Xie Jue again: "How many soldiers and horses came back with Lord Gu?"

"Of the 350,000 troops who went to the northwest, less than 50,000 were killed. All 300,000 troops have returned, and are waiting for your majesty's reward!"

Xie Anfeng immediately understood. How could a shrewd man like Lord Gu be controlled by the Queen?

With 300,000 troops at hand, even if the military token is not handed over, the Queen would not dare to act rashly for the time being.

He did not even go to knock on the drum to report the incident, but waited outside the palace.

Not long after, Emperor Hui, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly displayed his phoenix carriage, and a huge ceremonial guard came out from Zhengyang Gate.

A group of people came running out, led by Leng Luo.

He jumped off his horse in front of Xie Anfeng and said excitedly, "Master Xie, His Majesty wants you to quickly call Prince Jing. I will go to the prison to get Master Liu out. You, please quickly go and get the secret letter that the old master has hidden in the mansion."

Xie Anfeng asked excitedly: "Which Majesty meant this?"

"Well, in the hearts of this humble official and the lord, only the present emperor is His Majesty, and the queen is the queen, right?"

"Yes, yes, I will go and call Prince Jing and Lord Liu immediately and ask for your secret order!"

The drum for reporting stopped beating, and Xie Anfeng pulled the dazed old lady Xie and said, "Mother, let's go back home."

"You're not going to file a complaint?"

"No more sue! Mother, something important has happened!"

Not long after, Prince Jing and Lord Liu were invited, and Lord Zhang was released from prison.

Fifty top experts from the Imperial City Department surrounded Xie Anfeng, Lord Liu, and Prince Jing, holding a dark nanmu box in their hands, and went outside the Imperial Street together with His Majesty's carriage to welcome him.

Emperor Hui and Empress Xie both rode in the phoenix carriage and brought all the civil and military officials out of the palace to welcome Lord Gu and his entourage.

The streets and alleys were filled with people watching the fun.

The city gates were opened wide to welcome the triumphant hero.

A group of generals who were attacking Wei, led by Gu Shaoyu, Cao Wei and Yin Jinan, knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, saying, "We are fortunate to have fulfilled your mission and defeated the enemy army."

Emperor Hui was helped down from the sedan chair by Hua Zisheng.

Emperor Hui walked towards Gu Shaoyu tremblingly. Gu Shaoyu hurried forward. Emperor Hui hugged Gu Shaoyu and tears flowed before he said a word.

Gu Shaoyu knelt down and kowtowed three times respectfully.

Emperor Hui looked at Hanako Sheng and nodded.

Under Empress Xie's extremely puzzled gaze, Hua Zisheng pressed a mechanism on the box in Xie Anfeng's hand.

Take out a silk cloth wrapped in two layers of waterproof cloth.

It was actually an imperial edict.

"Gu Sanlang of Pingyang Marquis's Mansion is the biological son of me and Concubine Yun. In order to avoid being persecuted by Wei Jingzhong's party, I am now fostering the prince in Pingyang Marquis's Mansion. If I am lucky enough to get rid of the traitor Wei, I will welcome the prince back to his ancestral home. If I cannot do so, I wish the prince a smooth life, peace and happiness..."
