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

"My lords, please."

Zhao got up by mistake and walked to the front of the stage.

He stood in front of the empress dowager directly between the lights.

Holding the wine cup in his hand, he gestured to the princes and ministers below in an approachable manner, with a smile on his face.

"Today is another new year, and please join me in helping the general to bring peace and prosperity to the world."

The officials on the terrace dared not neglect General Zhao, they quickly stood up and saluted, and then drank the wine in their cups in one gulp.

The annual banquet in the palace gradually became more lively, with all the ministers toasting and drinking, and I came and went.

Although Zhao thief didn't like this occasion, he was just like the light, and he didn't show any strangeness.

"I was boating in the lake with the empress dowager at this time last year, right?"

He glanced at the lake reflecting the Milky Way outside the terrace.

At that time, he still regarded the female devil as a lifelong enemy.

However, at this moment, they can no longer lose each other and are willing to do anything for each other.

"Guan Guogong, the Supreme Master said that there seems to be something wrong with the lake, and I want you to go and inspect it yourself..."

A big eunuch suddenly walked up to him and whispered to him.

"Ok?"

Zhao Cuo froze for a moment.

He then nodded calmly.

The female devil and him are still in the same mind.

"I see. If any adult asks about my whereabouts, just tell the truth."

After the young man finished speaking, he turned and left. He was already outside the bustle, so not many people noticed him.

Following the memory of last year, he walked along the deserted lake, and the shadow of a small boat gradually loomed on the far shore of the lake.

The faster he walked, he could already see the beautiful figure standing on the bow of the boat. She was also looking at the person who was coming, with a smile on her face and one hand on her stomach.

"Last year, someone wrote a poem for me on the boat, do you still remember?"

The Queen stood under the starlight with a picturesque smile.

Her beautiful and noble face makes people dare not look at her.

Zhao thief looked at her face and couldn't bear to look away.

"I remember every time I was with you, but what makes me happy now is that I was just remembering what happened last year. You were waiting for me by the lake, huh?"

He jumped onto the boat with a smile on his face, held the beauty's soft jade hand, and stared intently at her majestic pale golden eyes.

"I'm asking about the poem you wrote to me last year."

Empress Dowager Zhao blinked her phoenix eyes.

"How can you assign old words in the New Year?"

Zhao Cuo lowered his head and pressed his forehead to her jade-like forehead.

"At this time, it should be 'without a colorful phoenix and two flying wings, but with a clear heart'. What does Sister Lan think? Hmm..."

Before he finished speaking, his mouth was gagged, the lake under the starry night rippled, and the reflections of the two of them folded in the water.

"I want to go to the middle of the lake."

A soft voice sounded from the silent lake.

"I'll row you anywhere myself, just the two of us."

Zhao Cuo picked up the paddle and sat down, the empress dowager nestled gracefully in his arms, and the boat left the shore leisurely.

"If there is no accident, you will be able to go to the south in January next year. Thinking about it, you still have a long time to play."

The female devil put her face in the arms of the young man, sniffing the refreshing scent of his body, making her eyes slightly drunk.

"I want to be with you all the time in Beijing."

Zhao thief said what she liked to hear.

"Will do."

The queen raised her face and left a bite mark on his neck.

"At that time, our children should be able to walk, right? You will be a good father."

"Of course I will be a good role model for my children!"

"Are you referring to snatching food?"

Queen Mother Zhao took his hand and placed it in front of her with a half-smile.

"You are mine in the first place, so you won't give it to that child, hum."

Zhao wrongly said willful words.

"shameless."

The Empress Dowager pinched his cheek.

"You still prefer me, right?"

Zhao Cuo had been forced to stop waving the paddle, and hugged her with both hands that were free, and they were already close to the center of the lake.

"If you sleep here with Ben Gong tonight, you can do anything you want, of course you can't refuse."

She looked reserved and said unscrupulous words.

"Of course I listen to you."

Grandpa Zhao hugged her and lay on the deck of the boat.

The night sky was bright, and numerous stars like sand hung on the black curtain, like a dream.

Embracing a beautiful woman, lying on the radiant Milky Way, this is so good to sleep, he can sleep until noon tomorrow, but...

"I lied to you."

As soon as the bad woman spoke, she expressed in action that she didn't want to let him rest.

The boat swayed gently on the surface of the lake, and a burst of ripples swayed from the center of the lake, whispering softly.

The bright moon became brighter and brighter, and they also calmed down, embracing each other with the sound of gentle breathing. It's just that this peace can't last long...

"What's wrong? You sat up suddenly, do you want to sit somewhere else?"

Zhao Cuo raised his head and looked to the side in surprise.

The female devil who was still lying in his arms just now got up.

Her slender eyebrows were knit together, which gave him a bad premonition, what happened?
"No accident or an accident..."

The queen said with a sigh of relief.

"what?"

General Zhao also sat up upon hearing this.

"Let's go back to the terrace first. The matter in the Southwest is not small this time. Let's change the banquet to a court meeting."

She took thief Zhao's hand, and the two of them disappeared into the lake in a light streamer, and he returned to the banquet in the blink of an eye.

"What message did the female devil receive when she hugged me just now?"

Zhao wrongly looked up.

A beautiful figure stood in the bright and soft golden light.

At this moment, a secret guard of the East Palace dressed in black walked quickly onto the terrace, and he attracted everyone's attention as soon as he appeared.

'Secret guard... why are you here at this time? '

There was a shock in someone's heart.

The secret guard of the Eastern Palace in the hands of the Empress Dowager Dayu has a very vicious reputation.

Once they are targeted by these hungry wolves who directly obey the Queen Mother, they can basically customize the coffin first, but maybe the urn will be more useful.

"Su Miwei, please tell the princes and ministers about the Southwest matter, as it happens that everyone is here."

The queen's majestic voice came from the hazy brilliance.

"As ordered!"

The secret guard surnamed Su still bowed his head facing her and said.

"The Gu clan of the Xisha Kingdom dispatched more than [-] troops, brazenly crossed the border, invaded Ningxi Mansion, burned, killed and looted!"

His words instantly plunged the originally noisy terrace into dead silence, Prince Chu Zhi's face instantly turned pale, and he looked at his new wife, who was beside him a Gu clan saint, in astonishment.

On the other side, Han Wang's eyes moved a little, and then his face showed surprise, and he didn't show any strangeness.

Civil and military officials looked at each other and from time to time looked at the only Gu tribe present.

"The Gu clan raised their troops at this time?"

Zhao Cuo was also taken aback.

Didn't the Xisha Kingdom just marry them?

This Biqing has just become the concubine of their Dayu, and her mother's family is facing each other with swords, what is the fuss about?

"You will tell us about the Southwest military affairs in detail."

The Queen's tone remained calm.

"Yes!"

The secret guard of the Eastern Palace said without hesitation.

"Because of the joint venture between the two countries, the Xisha Kingdom tricked Ningxi General Zhao Yang into relaxing his vigilance by using the excuse of a joint celebration. The Gu army drove straight in and took half of the mansion."

General Zhao's eyes narrowed. After he stepped down as General Ningxi, Wu Chongxing took over, and after that, it was Zhao Yang.

This person is also from a distant branch of their Zhao family, looking up the family tree, he is even a generation shorter than him.

It is precisely because of this important relationship that Zhao Yang was able to become the emperor of a family, but it is a pity...

'The important thing now is not to punish Zhao Yang for his crime of dereliction of duty. The Gu clan is too vicious this time, so the so-called marriage is just a trick? '

Zhao thief's eyes changed a few times. What he saw now was that the Xisha Kingdom used the marriage to lower Dayu's vigilance in order to catch them off guard.

"Fanbang barbarians! How dare you bully me, Hehe Dayu, please send troops immediately to conquer Xisha Kingdom, blood for blood."

King Han gave a look, and a minister in a red robe stepped forward to speak out, filled with righteous indignation.

"Yihou said exactly what he said!"

Another minister came out.

However, he turned his sharp gaze on the Gu clan saintess.

Biqing's fair face was also filled with uneasiness, but she still maintained her composure and did not lose her composure.

"Before dealing with the Xisha Kingdom, this daughter of a foreign race should be punished first! The so-called marriage is an irrefutable crime of deceiving the king and the country."

The minister who made the proposal condemned the newly named princess concubine with a few words and a few words.

"Be calm and restless."

The Empress Dowager Zhao who sat high on the head spoke indifferently.

"My palace entrusts the military affairs in the south of the Yangtze River to the general. Naturally, Southwest is also within the power. What do you think?"

Zhao Cuo walked out, and his eyes swept towards Prince Chu Zhi without a trace, only to see his eyes begging.

Is he worried that he will be implicated by his new wife?
Or you want to ask him to keep his wife...

"Return to the Queen Mother's words."

Zhao Xiaogong saluted upwards with a calm expression.

"Ningxi Mansion is connected to the Chu State. If the army of the Xisha State joins the rebel army, the consequences will be disastrous. We should immediately dispatch [-] southern troops to help and repel the enemy."

He has a clear understanding of the strength of the southern army. In addition to the 20 troops in his hands, there are [-] troops scattered in various southern provinces for defense.

This winter, he integrated the remnant army of Emperor Yongzhao and recruited troops in Huainan. He could also expand his troops, and it would not be a problem to transfer [-] troops.

However, the start of the war by the Gu clan is tantamount to making the southern battlefield worse.

"and also……"

Zhao thief knew that he could not sneak away in the capital.

"I request you to return to Huainan immediately after the year to lead the military affairs."

"That should be the case." The Demon Queen did not veto his request, "You can leave in five days."

Zhao Cuo bowed in response, and then glanced at Chu Zhi and the Gu clan saintess again. The faces of these two were not very good-looking.

"The general is also the deputy head of the execution department. According to the law, how should we deal with the Gu clan mission?"

'I don't know how to recite "Da Yu Lv". '

Young Master Zhao muttered something in his heart.

"I think that the people of Xisha Kingdom should be put under the custody of the Execution Department."

He said without thinking too much, anyway, this matter will not be hosted by him, just leave it to a professional.

King Han at the back also nodded secretly when he heard his words.

all the best……

"Empress Dowager, General, Zhi has something to say!"

Chu Zhi gritted his teeth under Han Wang's subtle gaze and stood up.

Zhao thief turned his head and looked at him suspiciously.

This matter can't reach you yet.

"Say."

The female devil spoke flatly.

"Biqing came here under the order of the lord of the Xisha Kingdom. Apart from knowing that she wants to be married to me, Dayu, she doesn't know anything about the Gu clan's intention to start a war..."

He was actually making excuses for the Gu clan saintess, his face was flushed, obviously he was really anxious.

Zhao Cuo opened his eyes wide in surprise for a moment.

Aren't you very resistant to interracial wives?
"Why did His Royal Highness make such ridiculous remarks?"

The minister who jumped out just now had a look of grief.

General Zhao knew this person, first-class Marquis Wei Fu, after Dayu's founding exploits.

This person's ancestor, Yihou, also followed the emperor Taizu to conquer the world 400 years ago, and in his generation he can still sit in the position of the second in command of the Ministry of War.

"It's not my kind, its heart must be different! How can we allow people from the enemy country to act freely in our capital?"

He said and bowed up again.

"The empress dowager, please make a wise decision! Hand over the Gu clan mission to the execution department to judge the crime, and be serious and fast."

Chu Zhi suddenly showed anger, but he couldn't say anything to refute, and looked helplessly at Bi Qing beside him.

"Your Highness, don't worry about it, but if I die, I have nothing to regret about my life."

The Gu clan saintess lowered her head and said softly.

"You and I are married..."

At this moment, Prince Dayu felt despair.

What can he do now that he has no power in his hands?

If he is the real prince of the country, it is not difficult to keep his wife, but even his father is just a puppet.

"General! Zhi pledges his life, Bi Qing knows nothing about the Gu clan's invasion of Dayu."

Chu Zhi gritted his teeth and bowed to thief Zhao.

Lord Shangfu frowned and looked at him.

This won't be a trick, will it?

"Your Highness is confused!"

An old minister also came out.

"Why does a man have to worry about not having a wife? The daughter of the Gu clan must not stay! So as not to mess up the royal blood."

The rhythm has picked up, so Chu Zhi, the titular prince, and the princes and ministers present really dare to criticize him.

"His Royal Highness, if you insist on protecting this Gu clan saint today! It is tantamount to helping the deposed emperor in the south to rebel."

There is still one person who directly made a serious characterization of this matter.

Zhao Cuo looked over calmly.

The person who spoke was Yihou Weifu.

"you……"

Chu Zhi looked sad and indignant!
With this hat off, will he still have a good life?
I'm afraid he will be regarded by the Queen Mother as a traitor who intends to revive the Chu family!
"Yihou! Don't be rude to His Highness the Crown Prince, do you still have distinctions in your eyes?"

General Zhao suddenly scolded Wei Fu, the servant of the Ministry of War.

"The next official is in a hurry...please forgive me, General!"

Yihou's face turned blue and he bowed his head to admit his mistake.

Even if he had the courage, he wouldn't dare to confront the number one courtier of the dynasty.

To put it bluntly, it may be very difficult for thief Zhao to kill him, but it is only a matter of one sentence to put him in the execution department.

"Lawless! A servant still doesn't know how to be cautious in his words and deeds? Please ask the empress dowager to punish this person for his disrespect."

Zhao Cuo said in a cold voice and cupped his hands upwards.

The ministers were silent when they saw that he directly took the meritorious service and performed the surgery.

King Han frowned secretly, as if he didn't understand why he was protecting Chu Zhi so much, it was difficult to handle.

"Chu Zhi is a scourge. If the devil let him go to the south with Zhao thief, there will be many changes in the future..."

Yihou is his man, he just wants to make the prince who protects his new wife suffer a confinement or even a heavier punishment through the Gu clan's reneging on his promise.

"Yi Hou Wei Fu contradicted the crown prince, so he was removed from the post of Minister of War and demoted to Yuanwai Lang."

Wei Fu hurriedly bent down to thank him.

He didn't dare to show any resentment towards Thief Zhao.

From Shi Lang to Yuan Wai Lang, he was directly downgraded by three levels, and half of his foot in Dayu's power center was taken back.

"Empress Dowager Shengming!"

All the officials said in unison.

"How to deal with the Gu clan mission group, I leave it to the general to make the decision, there must be no mistakes."

The female devil paused for a moment and then continued, King Han's expression suddenly changed, just because of her next sentence...

"The prince is too young to do anything. This time, he can go out with the general and study hard on the front line. He is not allowed to return to the capital under the imperial edict."
