Princess of the auxiliary country

The news that the Fuso envoy had been killed spread quickly.

In addition to the King of Qi, the King of Chu, the prince and all the courtiers knew about it.

Some people were angry at Huo Junyao's arrogance and boldness, while others didn't care at all. It was just a small country called Zuer. If he dared to act recklessly in the territory of the Yu Dynasty, he deserved to be killed.

When Huo Jinyan, who was having a party with his friends today, heard the news, he didn't care about the party and returned to his house in a hurry.

"Father, something happened."

Duke Ji Huo Jingzhi sat calmly in the living room drinking tea and reading.

Seeing his son's furious look, he frowned slightly, but raised his head to glance at him briefly, then lowered his head to read by himself.

There was no intention of asking him what happened.

He had known about the rumors outside for a long time. Now that his son was back in such a hurry, he must have heard the rumors outside.

"Dad, I heard that my little sister killed Fuso's envoy, and now it's spread outside."

"As soon as word spreads, word spreads. Why are you so anxious?"

Huo Jingzhi uttered a sentence without raising his head, his tone was calm without any fluctuation.

Seeing him like this, Huo Jinyan spoke again, "Father, this matter can be big or small. Now that it's happening like this, there's no telling how many people will come forward to impeach my little sister at tomorrow's court meeting."

"How can you still be so calm?"

"Impeach Yaoyao?"

Huo Jingzhi sneered, slowly closed the book, raised his head and said, "I know everything that happened. That person died unjustly. If someone really wants to impeach tomorrow, your little sister will be fine, but the person who impeaches him will definitely be in bad luck." .”

"Huh? Is there any hidden secret here?"

The news he heard was not comprehensive. He only heard that Princess Zhaode had killed the Fuso envoy.

When he heard that killing the envoy was not a trivial matter, he was so anxious that he hurried home to find his father to find a countermeasure without even having time to confirm the authenticity of the matter.

In fact, it's not that he is careless. Firstly, it's because he is really anxious. After all, this matter is not trivial. Furthermore, with so many people outside spreading the news, the authenticity of this matter is basically certain.

Seeing that he didn't know what happened, Huo Jingzhi briefly explained what happened.

After listening, Huo Jinyan's frown relaxed and he relaxed a lot, then walked to the edge and sat down.

"So this is ah."

He went to the boundary of her little sister's hot spring villa and robbed a civilian girl, verbally abused her and even drew a knife. Isn't this just looking for death?

This was already a provocation to the majesty of the Yu Dynasty.

If you die, you will die in vain.

The next day, at dawn, many courtiers gathered outside Chengtian Gate, waiting to go to court.

The carriage of Huo Jingzhi and his son arrived soon. As soon as he saw them, Ning Guogong stepped forward with a smile and gave a thumbs up.

"Lao Huo, Princess Zhaode did a great job yesterday."

Huo Jingzhi just smiled lightly and didn't say much.

Many people also cast their gazes in this direction, and soon the gate of Chengtian Gate opened, and a group of courtiers walked in.

Soon they arrived at the Jinluan Hall. As the sound of Gao Fu's singing rang out, everyone immediately stood up straight and waited until Emperor Zhaowu sat down before they all bowed their hands and bowed.

"If there is something going on, go ahead and leave if there is nothing going on!"

As soon as Gao Fu finished speaking, a young official from the Yushitai stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Hearing this, Emperor Zhaowu nodded.

"I heard yesterday that the Fusang envoy was beaten and killed, resulting in one death and two others being seriously injured. I feel that this move really undermines the majesty of our heaven." The man did not mention Huo Junyao at all, but what he said was that everyone present Everyone knows who it is because of.

Huo Jingzhi, who was in the front row of the ministers' queue, was so calm that he didn't even look at the impeacher.

Ning Guogong, who was in the queue of generals opposite the civil servants, just wanted to stand up, but was stopped by Ding Guogong Li Jiujun on the side.

"Don't be impatient."

Ning Guogong immediately shut his mouth.

And as one person stood up, several more people came out one after another.

Among them are not only the princelings and the Chu King's party, but also people from small aristocratic families. Of course, the most numerous people are from the Guanzhong Group.

However, the grades of the officials who stood up were not high, and the highest was only from the fourth grade.

However, none of the officials of rank three or above standing at the front of the court stood up.

Even Meng Xuancheng, who has always been called a troll, did not stand up today.

I have to say that those who can reach high positions in the court are very smart.

They all knew the cause and effect of yesterday's incident. As for this matter, Chun Chun was seeking death for the Fusang envoy. Even if Princess Zhaode did not kill him, the imperial court would definitely deal with these people from the small barbarian country after learning about it.

"Mr. Ji Guo, Princess Zhaode is your beloved daughter. What do you think of this?"

After all, it was Princess Zhaode who was being impeached, and she was not present, so she had no choice but to ask her father what he thought.

Hearing this, Huo Jingzhi cupped his hands and said, "Reporting to your majesty, I and Princess Zhaode are father and daughter. In addition, I was not present yesterday, so it's hard to say much."

Huo Jingzhi didn't know what he thought about these people who were jumping around, and he didn't even bother to play with them.

After all, at their level, they are not worthy of fighting against him.

"What about Xuancheng? What do you think of what they said?"

Meng Xuancheng cupped his hands and said, "I have only heard some rumors and don't know much about the details. However, I believe that Princess Zhaode is not a random person. There must be something hidden in this."

As soon as these words came out, the prince at the front, King Qi, King Chu and others all felt their hearts sinking. Meng Xuancheng, a big troll, actually said this. It seemed that something was wrong.

Originally, they had discussed it privately and asked their subordinates to make some suggestions. They would not blame Huo Junyao. They would just say that the Fusang envoy was killed and start from the level of national relations.

The purpose was to lure Meng Xuancheng, a big troll, to come forward, but now Meng Xuancheng didn't fall into the trap, which actually made it a little difficult for them.

"In that case, let the person concerned come over."

As soon as Emperor Zhaowu finished speaking, someone went to summon Huo Junyao.

The summoned little chamberlain met Huo Junyao's carriage as soon as he arrived at the entrance of the palace.

Not long after, the voice of a small chamberlain was heard outside. Emperor Zhaowu and other courtiers were startled, but they soon returned to normal.

"Xuan."

Huo Junyao walked in from the outside. After standing still, she saluted Emperor Zhaowu first, and then said, "I just heard that someone is impeaching my princess. I wonder who it is?"

Seeing her asking so straightforwardly, the people who stood up to impeach her felt a little bit in their hearts.

They were still a little frightened about Princess Zhaode, she was a vicious person.

Although I really didn't want to stand up, everyone asked me if I could not hide, and everyone stood up.

Seeing this, Huo Junyao just glanced at it lightly, then withdrew his gaze, saluted Emperor Zhaowu and said, "Your Majesty, what happened yesterday was indeed the fault of my daughter, but there was a reason for it."

"Then tell me in detail why this is so."
