Princess of the auxiliary country

In today's matter, all those named by Princess Zhaode are members of the Guanzhong Group. As the leader of the Guanzhong Group, Zhao Guogong must have some twists and turns that they don't know about.

"If you despise the imperial power, it is natural that you will die. Even if you destroy the three clans, it will not be an exaggeration."

Being called out in front of so many people, Duke Zhao was very frightened and at the same time extremely angry.

I think he has been keeping a low profile for so many years, but everything was destroyed by his idiot son.

"Yes, death is not an exaggeration, even if the three tribes are wiped out, it is not an exaggeration."

"However, the war in the previous dynasty resulted in too many casualties. It is not necessary to annihilate the three tribes, but it is okay to exile them to Lingnan."

"I just have a doubt. Duke Zhao, are you willing to let your son be exiled?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was shocked.

Even Huo Jingzhi and Princess Ningyang were the same. Although they both knew that Shen Huan's son was involved, the involvement was not deep, and their daughter also said that she would forget about it this time and would not pursue him.

So they didn't think about it at all, but now the Supreme Emperor pointed it out, and they had to deal with it seriously after hearing what he meant.

"Father."

Emperor Zhaowu hurriedly spoke, but before he could finish his words, he was frightened back by the Emperor's indifferent look.

Seeing that Shen Huan could no longer stand at this time, he knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, I have failed to teach you the right way. I dare not plead for mercy. Everything depends on the decision of your Majesty."

He knew very well that when the Supreme Emperor pointed it out at this time, he did not want to really deal with his son, but more to beat him up, so he definitely couldn't plead for mercy, he could only admit his mistake honestly.

"As an uncle, I can understand that you have some selfish motives, but you must always remember that the imperial power only exists in your position. If you take the lead in despising the imperial power, how can others respect the imperial power?"

"In this case, I think he didn't get involved too deeply, and he didn't do anything extraordinary. I don't have to pursue it, but I won't do it next time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace."

Although Shen Huan heard that his son would not be dealt with, his heart did not feel relaxed at all. On the contrary, it felt heavy.

There is no way, his status is rather embarrassing, and he has to be more careful about many things than other nobles.

"Get up."

After Shen Huan stood up, the Supreme Emperor turned to look at Huo Jingzhi and asked, "Jingzhi, what are Yaoyao's plans?"

"She went back to the Hot Spring Villa a few days ago to see off the fifty guards who died in the battle. When she came back, she said that she would pay with blood."

"It was the first time she experienced such a change. She was angry and acted out of proportion. I have no excuse."

"She is still young. I only ask the Supreme Emperor and His Majesty to let her go. I, as a father, will bear all the blame."

"And I, too."

Princess Ningyang also stood up.

"It's true that she lost her sense of proportion. She didn't know how to come to my grandfather when she was wronged, but she still charged forward by herself. Do you really think that I can't make the decision for her?"

"It really deserves punishment."

"How do you think the punishment should be?"

The Supreme Emperor turned to look at the other important ministers.

These important ministers were speechless for a while when asked this question. For the sake of your old saying, who can't see your partiality?

But now that the Supreme Emperor has asked, this thing has to answer.

Punishments and other things are just a joke, but you have to give an attitude, so it's not enough to be too light, and it's not enough to be too severe.

This is a bit difficult to do.

After a while, Duke Ding Li Jiujun stood up and said with cupped hands: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, although there is a reason for what Princess Zhaode did this time, it is indeed shocking." "The punishment is appropriate, I propose. Cut off the title."

As soon as these words came out, Ning Guogong immediately stood up and objected: "Brother Li, this is inappropriate. Although Princess Zhaode's actions are a bit exaggerated, she is still young, and it was done in anger. As for."

"I agree with Duke Dingguo's proposal."

Meng Xuancheng also stood up.

"I think Ning Guogong is right. Although Princess Zhaode's behavior is inappropriate, it is not enough to reduce her rank."

Fang Qiao also stood up.

The remaining few remained silent and did not choose who to support.

For a time, the two sides' opinions were even.

In response to this, the Supreme Emperor did not show anything. Instead, he turned to look at Huo Jingzhi and asked, "Jingzhi, what do you think?"

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi pondered for a moment and said, "I support Duke Ding. It is indeed my daughter who did something wrong in this matter. She should give an explanation to the world. Otherwise, where would the laws of our Yu Dynasty be?"

Both Ning Guogong and Fang Qiao were a little surprised by his words, but they understood his plan in their hearts.

"I also support Duke Dingguo's proposal."

Although the title was reduced, it was undoubtedly a kind of protection for their daughter.

When things get so big, it is always necessary to give a punishment that looks very powerful. The reduction of rank is very powerful, but it does not cause much harm to Huo Junyao.

After all, even if they lost their title, wouldn’t they still have the Duke and the Princess?

Could it be that without her title, others would still dare to bully her?

Therefore, it is very cost-effective to use such a title to calm the rumors outside.

"Where is Duke Zhao? What do you think?"

"I support Ning Guogong's opinion. There are reasons for the incident, and Princess Zhaode cannot be blamed entirely."

The Supreme Emperor turned to look at Emperor Zhaowu again.

At this time, Emperor Zhaowu's IQ had returned to normal. When he saw his father looking over, he immediately said, "The laws of the Yu Dynasty are unbreakable, and I think it is appropriate to reduce the rank."

Five to three, five people were in favor of reducing the rank and three were opposed.

The Supreme Emperor pondered for a moment and said, "In that case, then you can decree that Huo Junyao, the third daughter of Duke Ji's family, has no control over her eyes and openly kills people. If there is a reason for her crime and she is still young, she will not be severely punished and her title will be removed."

Emperor Zhaowu nodded, turned around and gave Wang De instructions, but he just asked to prepare the decree first and had no intention of passing it on now.

After all, the explosions outside haven't stopped yet.

It is not the time to pass by now.

"Also, those twelve families openly arranged for people to ambush and kill the princess of the dynasty. They despised the imperial power. The head of the family was deposed and dismissed. The whole family was thrown into prison. The subsequent punishment will be determined after the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment has found out."

After he finished his work, Li Jiujun, the Duke of Dingguo who spoke first, spoke again: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I wonder why you know the source of the explosion outside?"

"I've heard about it, but I only know it's a clay pot with fire. I don't know exactly why."

Emperor Zhaowu replied.

"My lord, I heard the explosion before and went to check it out personally. Your east and west ends are extremely weird, but they are extremely powerful."

Then, he described what he saw in detail.

"Just a small clay pot can blow the door to pieces and even leave cracks on the wall. I feel that if this thing is used in the military, it will play a great role."
