Returning after three years of reincarnation in the world of martial arts

Li Zhongwu and Yuan Miaoduo heard the footsteps and voices outside the hall, and Yuan Miaoyu, who was sitting on the main seat, actually heard it too.

Yuan Miaoduo could guess that it was the other princes and princesses gathered outside the palace, and Yuan Miaoyu could guess it too.

But she just glanced outside the hall, and then continued to listen to the proposals of the three officials from the Ministry of Rites, the Clan Mansion and Tongtian Pagoda calmly.

It actually completely left the other princes and princesses outside the palace, as if they didn't even know they were coming.

Apparently she was leaving them alone on purpose.

It's not hard to guess the reason, people like Li Zhongwu who are not good at maneuvering have guessed it - it is nothing more than to test her current authority in the hearts of other princes and princesses, to see who among them dissatisfied with her, and then jumped out to follow her. She is right.

This is similar to Zhao Gao's pointing out that a deer is a horse back then.

Zhao Gao tested his power by calling a deer a horse, to see if anyone dared to question him.

Yuan Miaoyu may not know who Zhao Gao is, and may not know the allusion of turning a deer into a horse, but she hangs other princes and princesses outside the Wuji Hall, letting them bask and wait under the sun, which can also have the same effect.

In this way, after more than an hour, Yuan Miaoyu said: "Just follow this plan! I will leave it to you to take care of the late emperor's funeral. Don't make any mistakes!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

The three officials immediately took orders, saluted Yuan Miaoyu, and then respectfully withdrew from the Wuji Hall.

Until this time, Yuan Miaoyu said indifferently: "Please invite the princes and princesses outside the palace to enter the palace!"

After speaking, she picked up the teacup in hand, squinted her eyes and took a sip.

"Yes! Your Highness!"

A female official was ordered to pass the message outside the hall, and after a while, a prince and princess walked into the hall with different expressions.

Most of the people lowered their heads slightly, not daring to look directly at Yuan Miaoyu who was sitting on the main seat.

Although some of them are Yuan Miaoyu's elder brothers and sisters, the death of the emperor today has drawn everyone's attention to the palace.

All the relatives of the royal family and officials of all sizes are paying attention to the movement of the palace.

It is also because of this that many of the battles and other events that took place inside and outside the palace walls today were spread outside the palace, and princes and princesses like them received even more news.

At least everyone has heard about the major events that happened inside and outside the palace today.

For example: Rui Wang Yuan Weitao wanted to control the imperial palace, killed the commander of the imperial army Hou Jianming, and even made a sacrifice to the two great officials, Thor and Qin Jingyu.

For example: Li Zhongwu, the son-in-law of the Seventh Princess, killed King Rui.

For example: Yang Qiyun, the head of the Jingwei Army, lost to Tao Yu, the head of the Ability Academy.

For example: Tao Yu also died at the hands of Li Zhongwu.

Coupled with the previous rumors that Li Zhongwu killed the demon concubine Yan Yuzhen, it was an invisible deterrent to the princes and princesses who had just entered the Wuji Hall.

In one day, so many major events happened inside and outside the palace, and everyone could see the direction of the wind.

Although these princes and princesses are not yet sure whether Yuan Miaoyu has the ambition to ascend the throne, they already have a sense of awe for Yuan Miaoyu.

Especially in this palace, they are not allowed to bring masters into the palace according to the rules, but Yuan Miaoyu has Dong Jinpeng and Li Zhongwu beside her, and she also controls the forbidden army in the palace.

If they had a choice, most of them would not want to enter the palace today, but they have no choice, because today is the day when their father dies, and as princes and princesses, if they dare to disobey Yuan Miaoyu's will, they will not come to the palace Looking up at the remains of his father, Yuan Miaoyu might use this as an excuse to deal with them.

In short, they had to come.

Including the crown prince Yuan Miaoteng who was most worried.

"Seven sisters!"

"Seven sisters!"

"Meet Seventh Sister!"

"The imperial sister has met the seventh sister!"

……

Twenty or thirty princes and princesses walked to the bottom of the dange, some bowed their hands to greet Yuan Miaoyu, some bowed their heads to Yuan Miaoyu, and so on.

When these people greeted Yuan Miaoyu, many of them couldn't help but glance at Li Zhongwu and Yuan Miaoduo who were sitting beside An.

There were especially many eyes secretly looking at Li Zhongwu, almost every prince and princess was looking at him secretly.

In other words, on the day of Li Zhongwu and Yuan Miaoyu's wedding not long ago, some princes and princesses sneered at Li Zhongwu, thinking that he was just an actor, and his greatest achievement was just winning the "Wu Zhuangyuan" recently. It's a world of difference.

But after Li Zhongwu's recent astonishing performances spread to their ears again and again, basically no one dared to underestimate him anymore.

"Seventh Sister is so lucky to have recruited such a powerful son-in-law..."

When an eleven or twelve-year-old princess quietly looked at Li Zhongwu, she couldn't help muttering softly.Li Zhongwu heard her, and looked at her in surprise.

When the people around her heard the words, they also looked at her subconsciously.

Because she spoke their minds.

When Li Zhongwu and Yuan Miaoyu got married, who would have thought that this son-in-law could be so good at fighting?

Yan Bingqing, the vice president of the Academy of Ability, was killed by him.

The demon concubine Yan Yuzhen was killed by him.

King Rui was killed by him.

Tao Yu, the principal dean of the Ability Academy, was also killed by him...

In the eyes of most of the princes and princesses, the most critical factor for Yuan Miaoyu to be able to sit on the throne and look down on them is her son-in-law Li Zhongwu.

If it wasn't for Li Zhongwu, would Yuan Miaoyu be as high as she is now?
And this seems to be true.

"Brothers and sisters, there is no need to be polite!"

Yuan Miaoyu narrowed her eyes while scanning the group of brothers and sisters below, some of whom she had never even seen before.

This is probably one of the reasons for the indifference of the royal family.

There are really too many members of the big family with the emperor as the core.

Theoretically, apart from the queen, the other concubines in the palace are also the wives of the emperor. If there are many wives, who has the time to cultivate a relationship with each of them?
From the standpoint of every concubine, I am just one of the emperor's many concubines, and there is a high probability that other concubines will continue to be added in the future. Dozens of hundreds of sisters will be divided into one man. What is the relationship between husband and wife?
From the standpoint of every prince or princess, there are tens or hundreds of aunts and second mothers in name, and dozens of brothers and sisters in name. With such a large number, how can we talk about family affection? ?The one who can give them a sense of family affection is probably their respective concubines or empresses.

Usually wanting to get a little paternal love from the emperor is an extravagant hope.

Some of the princes and princesses may not even see their father once a year.

……

Seeing Yuan Miaoyu's opening, Prince Yuan Miaoque squeezed out a gentle smile and said, "Seventh Sister! We don't know where Father is now, so I have to ask you to lead us to see Father, thank you!"

The others were silent.

Yuan Miaoyu looked at them, and after a few seconds, she looked at the prince and nodded slightly, "Yes! However, before going to see the emperor, I want to ask, are all brothers and sisters here? Are they all here?"

The prince frowned slightly, and looked at the others.

Standing next to the crown prince was the eldest princess Yuan Miaofeng, who took half a step forward and replied with a flat expression: "Seventh sister! I counted just now, and most of the brothers and sisters are here, only the second sister is waiting impatiently outside the palace. , I’m going to see my father first.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence in the hall.

Most of the princes and princesses lowered their heads slightly subconsciously, and only observed Yuan Miaoyu's expression from the corner of their eyes.

Being in the royal family, they are very sensitive about some things.

Many people have guessed Yuan Miaoyu's intention to hang them outside the palace.

Therefore, they knew that the second princess would definitely offend Yuan Miaoyu if she went to pay homage to her father's remains alone. What they were curious about now was how Yuan Miaoyu would deal with this matter?

But what disappointed them was that after hearing this, Yuan Miaoyu's expression was very calm, she didn't even frown, she just nodded slightly, and said: "Second sister has always been loved by my father, and I have a deep relationship with my father. I can understand to visit my father."

That's it?

Isn't she angry?
Many princes and princesses in the palace were surprised by Yuan Miaoyu's reaction.

At this moment, Yuan Miaoyu said again: "However, Second Sister's son-in-law Yan Hengzhou... Someone recently accused him of being drunk and frivolous, driving a car in Tianque City, killing someone, but finding someone to take the blame for him. This is a serious move. The reputation of my royal family is ruined, the influence is extremely bad, and her character is not worthy of my beautiful, filial and pure second sister, so come here!"

All the princes and princesses in the palace were stunned, no one expected Yuan Miaoyu, who had a calm expression, to take revenge so ruthlessly.

What is this going to do?
Wouldn't it be to make the second princess a widow?
They didn't doubt that Yuan Miaoyu's seemingly casual case was made up by Yuan Miaoyu.

Because for so many years, they had heard of Yuan Miaoyu's ability of never forgetting.

But she will never forget the memorials, the contents of books, etc. that she has read.

Moreover, the princes and princesses who were present had heard about the recent case of Yan Hengzhou.

In the past, princes, princesses or son-in-laws committed such cases, although they would also be punished by the emperor or the clan mansion, but generally the punishment would not be too heavy.

The common punishments are: thinking behind closed doors, slapping dozens of slaps, or being demoted to a certain place, and not returning to Tianque City for a long time.

But everyone felt that Yuan Miaoyu's punishment would not be so light.

"Your Highness!"

A female official came in through the side door and knelt down to listen to the order.

Yuan Miaoyu's expression and tone were still calm, and she said slowly: "Decree to Dali Temple! Order to retrial the murder case of the son-in-law Yan Hengzhou in a drunken car! If the case is true, sentence him to be buried as the late emperor! Let him go underground to replace the second emperor. The princess is filial!"

"Yes! Your Highness!"

After the female officer took the order, she stood up and bowed to exit the hall.

There was no sound in the hall.

All the princes and princesses were a little scared.

Let the second princess' son-in-law be buried with the late emperor?

Such a unique punishment exceeded everyone's expectations.

After a moment of silence, the eldest princess couldn't help saying: "Seventh sister! Can you keep Yan Hengzhou alive? You should also know that the relationship between the second sister and Yan Hengzhou is very good. If Yan Hengzhou is executed like this, the second sister will be in pain. of."

But the other princes and princesses dare not go along with it.

Yuan Miaoyu looked at the eldest princess with calm eyes, and said lightly: "Sister Huang is too worried! Second sister is open-minded by nature, she won't be sad for a long time, besides, Yan Hengzhou is arrogant and lawless, hurting people, killing people, it is no longer Once or twice, he is not good enough for Second Sister! I will just find a better son-in-law for Second Sister in the future! I believe Second Sister will thank us in the future." (End of this chapter)
