After being robbed by the prince of the enemy country

The sun rose high above the capital of Zhongqin, and the imperial bell was ringing magnificently, echoing non-stop over the capital.

To some officials, this sounded like a reminder.

The civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty, dressed in official uniforms and holding wat boards, hurried into the palace. When they entered the Taiyang Hall in a procession, everyone had doubts in their hearts.

Ning Yuanqiu deliberately walked a few steps, and approached the Minister of Criminal Affairs and said: "Your Majesty is not in the capital. It is reasonable to say that you don't have to go to court. Who dares to ring the court bell? Isn't this an offense to Tianwei? Don't you think so, Minister Zhang? Minister? Why is your forehead sweating and your face turning blue?"

The servant of the Ministry of Punishment raised his hand and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with the sleeve of his official uniform, swallowed several times, his throat rolled violently, he glanced at the first row of civil servants, there was no sign of Wen Teng, he became more and more uneasy, "too... Tai Tuo won't go to court today?"

"The Taifu is busy attending to the funeral for Concubine Wen. Hey! This Concubine Wen is a lady, she has always been magnanimous and decent, but she actually practiced the technique of disgusting victory in the palace to curse the queen. If you ask me, she is really stupid. No wonder the queen In a rage, he executed the person on the spot, and it is said that he was strangled to death."

The Minister of the Ministry of Punishment trembled his leg and almost fell, Ning Yuanqiu helped him, and said with a smile: "Master Minister, why are you fighting with each other? Could it be that you also want to escape from the meeting?"

"Even...even if Concubine Wen is at fault, she shouldn't be strangled to death! After all, she is the concubine of the emperor, and the concubine doesn't care?" The minister of punishment seemed to be explaining himself.

"The concubine is eating fast and reciting Buddha. How dare she come out and interfere in this kind of thing? If she takes care of it, I'm afraid the harem will bring out two corpses. Oh, why are you so frightened, Mr. Minister? Aren't you used to seeing criminal corpses in the punishment department?" ? No matter how tragic Concubine Wen’s death was, how could it be as miserable as that of Song Zhuangyuan?”

Ning Yuanqiu said these words close to his ear, his voice was soft, like ghost whispers, and the minister of punishment trembled like chaff on the spot!

At this time, the eunuch outside the Taiyang Hall shouted loudly: "My lords, please enter the hall!"

The civil and military officials were divided into two groups and entered the Taiyang Hall in an orderly manner.

The Taiyang Hall is full of gold and jade, majestic and majestic. It was the palace of Emperor Zhongqin in the early dynasty.

Only the emperor is qualified to summon officials to meet in Taiyang Hall.

But now Huaizhen is not in Beijing!

Wen Ting, who was standing in the first row of military officers, had guessed something, but couldn't believe it for a moment. At this moment, someone shouted: "Your Majesty is here!"

All the officials raised their eyes almost at the same time, looking up at Chu Qingxu who was approaching gracefully on the jade platform.

He wore a densely woven golden silk phoenix pattern palace dress, and on his head a purple jade hairpin with dragon and phoenix playing with pearls. It was a rare treasure given to Huaizhen on his wedding day, like a phoenix crown, a symbol of power.

Chu Qingxu flicked his wide sleeves, and sat firmly on the dragon chair, on which was a jade tree from the Qionglin forest, which was extremely beautiful.

All the officials below opened their eyes wide, not only marveling at the beauty of this son who is close to a monster, but also watching him sit firmly on the dragon chair in horror.

Wei Jia of the Tribute Court stood up and said, "Only the Son of Heaven can sit on the dragon chair, and His Royal Highness has overstepped it!"

"Oh?" Chu Shao changed to a more comfortable sitting position. He raised his hand a little, and Si Yun, who was next to him, lifted the golden brocade cloth on the jade plate in his hand, and the Sea Dragon Seal came into everyone's sight.

In the astonished eyes of everyone, Chu Qingxu said coldly: "Before His Majesty left the capital, he handed over the Imperial Seal to this hall with his own hands. This hall is in charge of the government, so naturally he can sit on this dragon chair."

Wei Jia couldn't believe it: "You..."

"The empress is a thousand years old!" Su Lang's voice interrupted Wei Jia's questioning, only to see that Wen Ting, who was the first military officer, was the first to greet Chu Shao at the court meeting.

Chu Shao glanced at Wen Jiying unexpectedly and gratefully, and when the other party raised his eyes, he immediately looked back.

Wen Ting is Wen's eldest son, representing Duke Zhen's position. With him as an example, the suspicious military officer immediately agreed.

Ning Yuanqiu was listed among the civil servants, and he also shouted that the queen is a thousand years old.

However, very few officials echoed Ning Yuanqiu.

Si Yun glanced at the group of standing officials, and silently recorded the faces of these people—coincidentally, most of them were named on the list.

Even if Wen Teng doesn't show his face, he is still the backbone of this group of speech officials. If the Taifu is not defeated, this group of people will not surrender to Chu Shao!

Not in a hurry.

Chu Qingxu smiled, and said softly: "Everyone is flat."

"Thank you, Your Royal Highness!"

Wen Jiying got up, seeing the smile on Jun's back, she was agitated for a moment, and made up her mind to protect Chu Qingxu during Huaizhen's departure from Beijing.

Chu Shao glanced at the first row of civil servants, knowingly asked, "Why didn't the Grand Tutor come?"

Wei Jia said angrily: "Your queen killed Concubine Wen, and you still want to ask her heart?"

"Master Wei's words, this palace doesn't understand. I have been feeling unwell recently, and even the imperial doctor Murong couldn't find out why. When I went to visit Sister Wen in Lengyi Pavilion that day, I accidentally discovered that she was fighting against the law. The art of cursing the palace." Chu Shao pretended to be innocent, really bewitching people's hearts, and looked pitiful, he asked the ministers: "The concubine cursed the queen, shouldn't she die?"

"Naturally damn it!" Wen Jiying said angrily.

Wei Jia retorted: "Excessive words! How can the art of disgusting victory be taken seriously?! Even if Concubine Wen violated the palace ban, she will not be guilty of death! If you really want to execute her, you should ask His Majesty's permission! How dare you abuse her?" Kill the concubine!"

"During the big wedding that day, His Majesty told me beside the bed that he would like to be one body with me as husband and wife. Since that's the case, then naturally he will think whatever I think."

Chu Shao's tone was flirtatious and ambiguous, deliberately trying to offend Wei Jia, a hypocrite who was full of saintly morality.

Wei Jia was really furious, "How can you be frivolous in the court!"

"Above the court, how can you allow you to be presumptuous!" Chu Shao snapped back, "Come here! The admonishing doctor speaks disrespectfully, offends Tianwei, strips off his official uniform, and puts him in prison!"

The imperial guards immediately went forward to arrest Wei Jia, and took off his official hat and uniform directly. Wei Jia was so humiliated that he scolded angrily: "The demon queen! I have been an official for many years, and I consider myself I have never been at fault, what crime do you use to deprive me of my official position!"

Chu Shao sneered, "I'm going to ask the Minister of Punishment."

The servant of the Ministry of Punishment who was named was kneeling in front of Chu Shao, shaking his legs like playing a lute.

"Master Shi Lang, tell me, is it reasonable for this palace to punish Wei Jia?"

Beads of sweat dripped from the servant's forehead, "My humble minister... my humble minister..."

Wen Rongyu was removed from the palace as a sinner. Since he was guilty, he had to go through the punishment department.

Yesterday, the servant of the Criminal Ministry saw Concubine Wen's body with his own eyes. The death was not tragic, but horrifying. It was clearly strangled to death!

You know, even Huaizhen is preventing the Wen clan from daring to touch Concubine Wen easily, at most they will put her in the cold palace!

But Chu Shao wanted to kill Concubine Wen as soon as he made a move, and he still killed people without any concealment, and made people go to the Wenfu to report the funeral in a blatant manner.

Now that Huai Zhen is not in the capital, the sky is really high and the emperor is far away. Who can suppress Chu Qingxu's arrogance?

He was terrified that he would end up with Concubine Wen!

Just as he was about to be a grass on the wall and fell to the Queen's side with the wind, Wei Jia suddenly said: "Mr. Zhang, you must remember that you are the Minister of the Ministry of Punishments. You must uphold justice in charge of the prison! Otherwise, how can you be worthy of His Majesty?" !"

Those words sounded fine to others, but the servant of the Ministry of Punishment knew in his heart that it was Wei Jia who was warning him, reminding him how he climbed from a scholar to the position of minister of the Ministry of Punishment by cheating in the imperial examination, reminding him not to forget to treat him Wen Taifu who has "the grace of cultivation".

It even reminded him that if he said something wrong, he would wait for the whole family to suffer!

"My minister... I think your Highness's move is inappropriate!" Zhang Shilang raised his head and met Chu Shao's cold eyes tremblingly, "Master Wei is not at fault, and Concubine Wen did not commit any serious crimes during her lifetime. Your Highness... Your Highness Indiscriminate use of the death penalty may be criticized by the people of the world, and it is even more unacceptable by the Ministry of Punishment."

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers waited with bated breath.

But Chu Shao sneered, "Master Shi Lang is really just, it's the luck of Zhongqin!"

The servant of the Ministry of punishment thought that the queen was really praising him.

Unexpectedly, Chu Qingxu changed the subject: "You are so righteous and awe-inspiring, almost making this palace forget how Song Hao was wrongfully killed in the prison of the Ministry of Justice."

All the ministers: "!!!"

"Before Song Hao died, he was never convicted of a crime. Even if he was guilty, he cheated in the imperial examination and was exiled at most. How could he die? Who is abusing the death sentence? Lord Minister, you come to answer the doubts of this hall."

"...Weichen...Weichen..." Zhang Shilang couldn't speak clearly, he could feel a terrifying and cold gaze pressing down on his head, making him dare not even lift his head, But he still insisted: "Song Hao committed suicide in fear of crime...it has nothing to do with the Ministry of Punishment."

"...Very good." Chu Shao originally gave him a chance to turn his back on him, but now it seems that all his hard work was in vain.

"The servant of the Ministry of Punishment can kill him even if he finds that he is innocent, then this palace will do as you wish!"

As soon as the words fell, Tu Wei had already walked up to the Taiyang Hall with a big knife, and in front of all the officials, he raised the knife in his hand and cut off the head of the minister of punishment.

The bloody head rolled and rolled, and rolled to the feet of champion Li Du.

Because the death was so sudden, the eyes still blinked twice in front of Li Zhuangyuan, and finally widened, bloodshot crawled up, and there was no more life.

"Ah!!!" Li Du was so frightened that he lost his composure and screamed, knelt down in front of Chu Shao on the spot, begging for mercy in a guilty conscience, "The empress, spare my life! The empress, spare my life!! This minister has nothing to do with this group of people, nothing to do!!"

The military officer was used to killing and attacking. Although he was shocked by the sudden scene in front of him, he didn't lose his composure. Most of the civil servants were scared out of their wits!

Along with Li Duyi, there were seven or eight officials who confessed their guilt, and one of them was so frightened that he wet his pants.

This scare, doesn't it scare those soft bones out of the prototype?

Wei Jia regained consciousness with difficulty in horror, he looked at Chu Shao, as if looking up at Shura from hell, "You...how do you...how dare you kill people in the court?!"

"As you said, this hall is the demon queen!" Chu Qingxu smiled lightly, with murderous aura and joy rolling in his eyes, "If I want to kill someone, I'll kill him, why don't I choose the occasion?"

Surprised, angry and frightened, Wei Jia vomited three liters of blood on the spot and collapsed to the ground!

The author says:

Shao'er: If I beat you, I'll hit you. Do I still have to pick a date? !

At this time, Jiu Gu had already arrived in Xiyi, unaware that the palace had been turned upside down!
