Dayu Execution Officer, begins to torture the demon girl's fiancee

Chapter 245 Left-Handed Queen, Right-Handed Queen Mother

"grown ups……"

Empress Chen blushed immediately after being held by him.

This is a sacred place for worshiping heaven.

All the officials are watching them.

"I frightened the queen."

Zhao mistakenly clenched Empress Chen's jade hand with a bloody hand.

The boy's words made her eyes tremble, and for a moment she felt that etiquette, righteousness, and shame were not important anymore, and her soft and plump body leaned forward.

She pressed her fair forehead against the young grandpa's bright silver armor, and the bloody smell that poured into her nostrils made her dizzy and dizzy, which made her voice faintly choked.

"You're hurt...it's okay, isn't it?"

The eyes of all the officials focused on Chengqian Altar.

These Beijing officials all opened their mouths in astonishment at this time.

The newly canonized Empress Dayu actually snuggled into the arms of a young nobleman?
"Good boy."

Su Chengji was speechless when he saw this scene.

My eldest nephew even dared to touch the queen?
Although Emperor Wucheng is a puppet, his throne is not fake, and his official wife is also the real mother of the country.

'Zhao is wrong! '

King Ning, who has already ascended the throne below, is guarded by the imperial army.

He stared at the handsome young man on the Chengqian altar with wide-eyed hatred.

His wife was embraced by other men in full view like this...

"I want to see how long you can be arrogant!"

The old emperor in the dark sneered.

His army will arrive in no time.

The throne is within reach!

"I've got a lot of arrows in my body."

Zhao Cuo wanted to be weird again when he heard the queen's voice full of distress for him.

He lowered his head and buried his face into Chen Yourong's white jade neck.

The boy greedily sniffed the lady's evocative scent.

"Can the queen give me medicine later?"

he whispered.

"Um……"

Empress Chen responded softly.

She actually wanted to put her arms around Zhao Cuo's waist.

But under all the attention, she still couldn't forget that she was a married woman in name.

"Commander Zhao."

A minister in a red robe came out.

Zhao Cuo looked back and realized that it was one of his own.

Lord Wang Shu, the envoy of the Privy Council.

"Also, please read out the will of the empress dowager quickly, Commander."

Wang Shu said in a deep voice as if he didn't see the young man hugging the queen.

He is the confidant of the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace who was promoted to one person under one hand.

Last time he also caught the little father-in-law entering the screen of the empress dowager.

"Yes."

Another minister spoke.

"The military situation is urgent, please don't delay Mr. Zhao."

They pretended to be blind at the same time. Although touching the emperor's woman is a death penalty for the nine clans, but the current Zhao Xiaogong who holds a heavy soldier is not comparable to the puppet emperor.

"Everyone, be safe and don't be impatient."

Zhao Cuo finally spoke.

He was still holding Empress Chen's hand and looking down.

The eyes of the young man who had just rushed out of the battlefield were sharp and bright.

"May I ask what is Master Zhao's current situation?"

Wang Shu paused for a moment and then spoke carefully.

"Is it possible for the rebels in Beijing to suppress it?"

As the confidant of the Empress Dowager, he actually knows a lot of things, such as the existence of the late emperor.

He could also guess that Mr. Zhao might not know the whole picture of the matter.

The empress should be unwilling to tell the little lover that she is going to kill her husband.

"The rebellion in Beijing is nothing more than a mob."

Zhao Daguan said in a deep voice.

"I have a major military situation that I want to let many adults know."

He knew that the mutiny of the Shenwu Army could not be concealed, and he should inform the officials of the court, so that he could concentrate all his strength to defend the capital.

"The lieutenant-general of the Shenwu Camp outside Beijing rebelled and led a large army towards the capital. The country has reached the point of life and death."

As soon as Zhao Cuo's words came out, he immediately stirred up waves!
"Shenwu army rebellion?"

The sound of air-conditioning came and went.

The Beijing officials present all looked at each other in panic.

A military disaster can instantly collapse a huge empire. This kind of force will invalidate all laws and morals, and the sword is the last word.

"Why did the Shenwu camp rebel? Who are they going to support? Could it be that the rumors in Beijing and China these days..."

The sharp bureaucrats quickly recollected it.

There was even joy in the eyes of a small part of the crowd.

Emperor Yu Xuan was really popular. The corruption of officials in Anhe Dynasty was the result of his connivance. He even said "I don't like honest officials".

"The empress dowager is aiming for this."

Zhao wrongly explained the situation before spreading out the Yizhi in his hand.

The Empress Dowager's decree was no different from the imperial decree. Seeing this, the civil and military officials immediately bowed and saluted with all respect.

This decree was only given to him alone, but in order to establish his leadership position, he must inform the officials. After all, if the name is not correct, the words will not go well.

"The Empress Dowager has orders. Zhao Cuojia will be appointed Minister of the Ministry of War to take charge of the military affairs in the capital! The internal and external affairs will be decided by you!"

Mr. Zhao Xiaogong recounted the contents of Yizhi in a loud voice and then looked down.

With a calm gaze, he noticed that the Beijing officials looked at him differently.

After he got the military power, he was hand-picked by the Empress Dowager Yizhi, and he already held great power.

"My lords, please discuss with me the strategy of retreating the enemy."

Zhao Cuo no longer humbly calls himself a "late born".

If he wants to keep his word, he must establish his own prestige.

Those in positions of power can be humble, but only after establishing their own authority, blind humility will be regarded as a guilty conscience.

"Commander Zhao."

As the right-hand man of the female devil, Wang Shu was naturally the first to respond.

"As the saying goes, one must first secure the interior in order to fight against the outside world. How can the rampant chaos in Beijing stop a hundred thousand martial arts troops? The most urgent task is to wipe out the rebellious officials and thieves in the city."

"This officer also means so."

Zhao Cuo said in a cold voice without letting go of Empress Chen's hand.

"Four or five thousand masked bandit troops cannot be born out of thin air, and they all have sophisticated weapons. After the imperial army suppresses the rebellion, they will be able to find out their origins."

An old official with gray temples in the crowd under the altar narrowed his eyes.

This person is Huang Mingyu, the servant of the Ministry of officials.

Emperor Yu Xuan's diehard loyalty.

"The old minister has a word and doesn't know whether to say it or not."

Huang Shilang stepped forward listening to the sound of swords clashing outside the ancestral hall.

"It's Huang Shilang from the Ministry of Officials. If the boss has any good ideas, come quickly, and I will listen to you."

Zhao Cuo showed a gentle smile that respects the old and loves the young.

"The old man has been listening to the cries of the rebellious party outside since the beginning."

Huang Mingyu coughed and said, as a veteran minister in the court, his words still carry a lot of weight.

"Those rebels seem to want to talk to us. When the country is in peril, it really shouldn't use the only [-] forbidden troops for internal friction."

He spoke softly but forcefully.

As soon as this remark came out, many officials immediately turned pale.

Zhao Cuo stared at Huang Shilang with a gloomy face when he heard the words.

"According to what you mean, do you want the imperial court to compromise with the rebellious party? Do you still consider yourself a minister of Dayu?"

He issued extremely severe accusations, directly labeling him as a generation without king and father, and he could even behead Huang Shilang on the spot with this charge.

"The old minister is guilty."

Huang Mingyu bowed and bowed, with a calm expression on his face, and said unhurriedly.

"Commander Zhao is so tough, but he has a clever plan to repel the [-] martial arts army? You must know that the total strength of the capital is only [-]."

"Bring the bow of the Commander."

Zhao said to a young general of the Forbidden Army beside him with a frosty face.

After he got the bow, he immediately took the arrow and pulled the string to aim at Huang Mingyu.

The civil and military officials present were silent for a moment.

"The empress dowager gave me the right to kill first and then report. What Huang Shilang just said was that the capital can no longer be defended, why not surrender to the rebels?"

Zhao Xiaogong asked blankly.

"The old man has no such intention."

Huang Mingyu's cold sweat broke out immediately.

He didn't think that this young and noble person would kill someone if he didn't agree with each other.

Cut first and play later?He is an official of the imperial court at the third rank, and Zhao thief also said that he could not be killed if he said he would kill him?

"It turns out that I misunderstood it. Huang Shilang might as well make it clearer. Did you just say that you want to negotiate with the rebels outside the ancestral hall?"

"Yes."

Huang Mingyu said calmly.

"We still don't know who the rebels are, so why not use the negotiation as an excuse to ask them from the rebels."

"Huang Shilang is right."

Sima Yu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, dared to speak out at this moment.

"As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy is the only way to win a hundred battles. Now we don't even know the names of the rebels, so how do we plan to counter the rebellion?"

"Why did the two elders say such stupid words?"

Zhao Cuo had already labeled these two people as Emperor Xuan's remnant party in his heart.

"After the imperial army suppresses the rebellious party outside the ancestral hall, they can capture the leader of the bandit and torture him. Why use the name of peace talks?"

After he finished speaking, he understood that he couldn't waste any more time, and turned to look at Su Chengji who was at the gate of the ancestral hall, and said loudly:

"Director Su, order the entire army to switch from defense to offense, and wipe out the rebel army at any cost."

"Order!"

Su Chengji responded without hesitation.

However, after his words fell, there was a bigger movement outside the ancestral hall.

A sharp and loud voice that could clearly be heard from an incomplete eunuch resounded through the sky.

"The imperial decree has arrived! If all the officials in the ancestral hall still consider themselves the ministers of Dayu, they will immediately stop their troops to accept the decree!"

"Where's the imperial decree?"

The civil and military officials looked astonished.

Their eyes subconsciously focused on Xinjun.

But this Emperor Wu Cheng, who had just ascended to the Great Treasure, was at a loss. What imperial decree would he issue as a puppet?None of the eunuchs in the palace obeyed his orders.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves dare to falsely preach the imperial decree!"

Zhao Cuo did not hesitate to characterize the emergency.

"Su Zhangsi, let the imperial army defeat the rebellious officials and thieves, and reward a hundred gold to those who capture the enemy generals alive!"

He didn't care if it was the imperial decree of Prince Guang who supported himself as emperor 14 years ago.

Even if it was the will of the deceased Emperor Yu Xuan, he just suppressed it and guarded the world for the empress dowager.

The rebellion of the rebel organization should have exhausted all the strength in Beijing. As long as they are suppressed, he will be able to wholeheartedly face the upcoming [-] martial arts army.

"Report!"

Suddenly, a team of imperial guards broke through from the back door of the ancestral hall.

"Report to Commander Zhao! The humble official came to pass on Lord Lu Jianming's military report! The Shenwu rebels have arrived at the north gate of the capital!"

The cavalry who rushed in turned over and dismounted and hissed!

"How come so fast?"

Zhao Cuo's cold face suddenly turned pale.

Not only him, but the officials present also panicked when they heard the urgency, they were all trapped in the ancestral hall after they were all approaching the city.

Outside is a rebellious party that is not afraid of death, and outside the city is surrounded by the Shenwu army that the forbidden army can never defeat. This is already a dead end with no chance of winning!

"Why did the heavens send such a catastrophe to Dayu?"

"There are vassal kings inside, and the monsters outside the country are watching, and now the capital is in danger..."

"The Chu family has enjoyed the country for 400 years, and the empress dowager is trying her best to rule the country. Is it because the sky is going to kill me?"

For a while, officials lamented.

An atmosphere of despair quickly spread.

Even timid civil servants have collapsed to the ground.

"The civil and military officials in the ancestral hall still haven't accepted the order?"

The eunuch's loud voice came from outside again.

"King Qin's army has arrived, His Majesty An He only made a mistake with the traitor Zhao after killing the devil, and let the rest go!"

"The first emperor?"

As soon as this remark came out, the expressions of the two thousand officials in the ancestral hall suddenly changed, and they hesitated to speak.

If they suddenly heard the news that Emperor Yu Xuan, who had passed away, was still alive, their first reaction would naturally be to doubt, but there have been rumors in Beijing and China these days!
The nursery rhyme that was sung said that Prince Guang and Emperor Anhe were not dead, but were conspired by the Queen Mother and locked up in the Demon Lock City. When the city was broken a few days ago, the troubled father and son had already seen the light of day again!
"Emperor...Emperor brother?"

The new king, who was protected by the forbidden army, looked at a loss.

He was grounded in the deep palace and could not hear any news from the outside world.

After a brief moment of daze, he was suddenly overjoyed!If the elder brother returns, he can still be a free and idle prince!
"How could it be him……"

Empress Chen who was beside Zhao Cuo was also stunned.

But she just pursed her thin lips and then clenched the boy's hand tightly.

The little father-in-law gently pinched her catkin to comfort her, his expression was surprisingly calm, and he knew what he should do.

"This is the rumor of the deposed prince Chu Guang 14 years ago!"

Zhao Cuo looked coldly at the small group of officials who were obviously swaying in their minds.

"I might as well tell you the secret today. Prince Guang used his son against his father to support the army and stood on his own. After the defeat, he actually did not die."

He knew that now that soldiers were approaching the city, it would be useless to say anything, even if he designated Chu Guang as a traitor.

What about rebellion?The princes who steal the country are also, the winner is not the thief but the emperor.

But even so he had to keep his mind.

"Back then, the empress dowager thought that the crown prince was the late emperor's son, so he was spared the death penalty and imprisoned in Suoyao City. Unexpectedly, after he escaped, he rebelled again."

Zhao Xiaogong's words made many officials look surprised. Compared with the resurrection of the late emperor, it is obviously more likely that Prince Guang is still alive.

Perhaps this thief played the name of Emperor Anhe because he wanted to clear his name first.

That's pretty reasonable.

"The new king has been established."

Zhao wrongly raised his finger to Emperor Wu Cheng whose wife was still in his hand.

"Now that the country is stable and the Empress Dowager is in charge, how can the artifact fall into the hands of the rebels at this time of internal and external troubles?"

"If you still think of yourself as a courtier of the Chu family, you should kill Zhao thief immediately to rectify the universe!"

An old and mid-spirited voice suddenly resounded through the sky.

The faces of some ministers present who have been officials for many years changed drastically!

How does this sound like...

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Huang Mingyu suddenly fell to his knees and saluted!
"you wanna die!"

Zhao Cuo was furious!
Without hesitation, he drew his bow and flew away with an arrow!

A heroic middle-aged man wearing a five-clawed golden dragon uniform appeared and blocked his arrow.

"The queen is already trapped in the demon lock city and cannot get out. Do you still want to be stubborn? Those who turn back at this moment will not be guilty!"

While speaking, the old emperor looked at Zhao Cuo on the high altar with eyes full of anger.

Now that the thief dared to hold Yan'er's hand!

Cutting him into pieces is not enough to quell his hatred!
"Prince Guang... or Emperor Anhe?"

Zhao Cuo looked at the man who suddenly appeared without retreating.

He could feel a sense of oppression on the opponent.

This person may have near-holy strength.

"The first emperor?"

At this time, the civil and military officials were already confused.

Some old ministers are completely unaware of the current situation.

Who is this man who has the voice of the first emperor but also looks like Prince Guang?

"The female demon head of the Eastern Palace has been suppressed into Suoyao City! King Qin's army has moved beyond the capital, and I am the emperor of Dayu!"

Emperor Anhe calmly spoke words that could shake all officials.

"is it?"

The arrogant and lazy female voice suddenly spread.

All the people in the ancestral hall looked at Chengqian Altar with joy or surprise.

The young man who was holding Empress Chen with his left hand froze in place, and a red-haired woman in a majestic phoenix robe landed on his right side. She looked down on all beings with a pair of majestic golden pupils.
