Daming: After self-explosive time travel, Lao Zhu's mentality collapsed

Chapter 1248 The Song Dynasty should have been named Li

Chu Ze's order immediately alarmed the entire court.

All the officials gathered and filed in.

Everyone was surprised and delighted to see that the emperor, who had been in a coma for a long time, had miraculously recovered and was back in charge of government.

However, the fact that Yan Song was executed for treason came like a bolt from the blue.

The ministers looked at each other, with disbelief in their eyes.

"Your Majesty is wise! Lord Yan is so loyal and would never do anything to rebel!" Minister of Works Zhang Juzheng said cautiously.

Chu Ze, however, sneered and stood with his hands behind his back.

"Lord Zhang, are you saying that I have wronged Yan Song? He led his troops to attack the palace, clearly intending to rebel."

"If I hadn't set an ambush to capture him, I'm afraid that this country would have fallen into the hands of that old villain by now!"

"This, this." Zhang Juzheng was speechless for a moment, looking embarrassed, not knowing how to answer.

Chu Ze looked around at the ministers and said coldly, "What do you think? Was Yan Song's rebellion a false accusation by me, or was it true?"

The ministers looked at each other in bewilderment and there was complete silence.

At this moment, Yu Daying strode forward and saluted with his fists clasped.

"Your Majesty, I have evidence to offer."

He took out a stack of memorials from his arms and held them high.

"Yan Song had long been colluding with the barbarians on the border, intending to overthrow the Song Dynasty with internal and external support. These memorials all contain ironclad evidence of his correspondence and information transmissions with enemy generals!"

As soon as this statement came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.

"Master Yan is actually a spy? It's unimaginable!"

"He holds a high position of power in the court. Could it be that he is plotting a rebellion and usurping the throne?"

"How terrible! Fortunately, Your Majesty noticed it in time and killed him, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!"

The ministers were talking about it and were terrified.

Chu Ze stood with his hands behind his back, his tone grim: "I control the world, and I have the ability to see through things. How could a sinister and cunning man like Yan Song escape my eyes?"

"Besides, as an official appointed by the imperial court, he has been in the frontier for many years and should have been loyal to his duties. But now he is colluding with foreign enemies and plotting evil. If I hadn't taken advantage of their tactic, I'm afraid his ambition would have expanded and brought disaster to the country!"

Upon hearing this, all the ministers knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Your Majesty is wise! I am so ignorant that I cannot see Yan Song's evil ambitions! We deserve to die!"

"Your Majesty, you will rule the country for eternity! I, your humble servant, am willing to sacrifice my life for your Majesty, even until my death!"

Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction and said loudly: "My dear ministers, please stand up. I know that you are loyal to the country and have no second thoughts."

His eyes were stern and he glanced at the ministers.

"The war on the border is tense right now, and Xixia is eyeing us covetously. Although I am fine, I still need to rest. In this war, we still need you to do your best to overcome the difficulties together!"

"Yes!" the ministers shouted, all of them full of fighting spirit.

"Empress and Lord Yu, have you found out the mastermind behind the palace coup?" Chu Ze suddenly changed the subject and looked at Qin Yunyun and Yu Daying.

Qin Yunyun couldn't help feeling sad when she heard this.

"Your Majesty, I have been investigating for a long time, but I have no clue. I am afraid... I am afraid that this person is very capable and is definitely not an ordinary person!"

After saying this, she frowned and a trace of worry flashed in her eyes.

Chu Ze felt distressed when he saw this, and he quickly walked forward and hugged his beloved wife in his arms.

"Queen, please don't blame yourself. I am already grateful to you for all your hard work for this palace. Let me investigate the mastermind behind this!"

Qin Yunyun felt warm at heart when she heard this. She also stretched out her white jade hand and hugged her lover tightly.

At the same time, Yu Daying was gritting his teeth secretly.

Seeing the affection between the king and the queen, he felt his heart burning with jealousy.

"Your Majesty, I have discovered something." He forced himself to remain calm and reported respectfully, "Recently, there have been palace servants claiming to have seen a dark shadow moving through the Imperial Garden in the middle of the night."

"This person's whereabouts are mysterious and he comes and goes without a trace. I suspect that he is closely related to the palace coup. Maybe he is the mastermind behind it!"

"Oh?" Chu Ze's eyes lit up when he heard that. He let go of Qin Yunyun, pondered for a moment, and said decisively: "Your Highness Yu is right. This mysterious man must be related to the palace coup. I will personally capture him and bring him to justice!"

"Come here, prepare your horses!"

Chu Ze waved his hand, turned around and was about to leave.

Yu Daying and Qin Yunyun were shocked and hurriedly stopped them.

"Your Majesty, you can't do that!" Qin Yunyun was extremely anxious. "You haven't recovered yet, how can you take risks rashly?"

"That's right!" Yu Dayan also knelt down and pleaded, "Your Majesty is the ruler of a country, how can you put yourself in danger? Leave this matter to me, I will do my best to capture the criminal alive!"

Upon hearing this, Chu Ze laughed out loud towards the sky.

"You are just an assassin, and you dare to act wildly under my nose? You really don't know how to live or die!"

He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes sharp as lightning.

"I control the universe and have the protection of the stars in the sky. How dare a little thief hurt me?"

After saying this, he strode out of the hall.

The dragon robe fluttered, and the momentum was awe-inspiring. That majesty was intimidating without anger, and no one dared to stop it.

Qin Yunyun and Yu Daying looked at each other and could only smile bitterly.

"The emperor has always been like this. Who can persuade him?" Qin Yunyun shook her head helplessly. "Sir Yu, let's stay close to the emperor and protect him."

"That's exactly what I meant." Yu Daying nodded in agreement.

The two of them quickly caught up with Chu Ze and headed towards the Imperial Garden in a mighty manner.

Behind him were countless guards and imperial guards, also wearing armor and holding spears, looking very heroic.

The moonlight is hazy and the garden is deep.

The huge imperial garden is full of flowers and lush grass, and it is quiet and silent.

Suddenly, a black shadow flashed by, as fast as lightning and without a sound.

Chu Ze's eyes were sharp and he saw the clue at a glance.

He leaped forward and pounced on him like a wolf or a tiger!
In a flash, a knife slashed out. With a deafening crash, the black shadow fell heavily to the ground, unable to move anymore.

"Take off his mask for me!" Chu Ze gave an order.

The guards responded in unison and stepped forward to remove the man's mask.

Qin Yunyun and Yu Daying also widened their eyes and stared at the person on the ground.

But as the mask fell off, a familiar face was revealed!

"Li Shiming?" Chu Ze exclaimed, his eyes widened in disbelief, "Why are you here?"

It turns out that this sneaky mysterious man is Li Shiming, a founding hero of the Song Dynasty and the biological father of the current crown prince!

Wasn't he demoted to a commoner and had already left his hometown? How could he appear in the palace and assassinate the emperor?

When the truth came to light, everyone present was shocked.

Li Shiming had been captured at this time and could not move.

He glared at Chu Ze fiercely, gritting his teeth and said, "How dare you, little bastard, take my son's position as crown prince! Today I will kill you with my own hands and let the world know that the Song Dynasty should have been ruled by the Li family!"

After saying that, he suddenly attacked, swept his legs, broke free from the escort, and rushed straight towards Chu Ze!

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Qin Yunyun screamed.

However, it was too late. Li Shiming was too fast and was in front of Chu Ze in the blink of an eye.

There was a flash of cold light, and the dagger pierced Chu Ze's throat!

In a hurry, Chu Ze reacted very quickly.

He leaned sideways and barely avoided the fatal blow.

Then, a heavy punch was thrown, hitting Li Shiming in the lower abdomen. (End of this chapter)
