Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 994 Things are not over yet
In Chengming Hall.

Emperor Yuan Zhen's expression was terrifyingly indifferent.

He opened his mouth and spoke out his order word for word: "Come here, drag the Ninth Prince Liu Yao down! Punish him severely!"

"As for the second girl of the Bai family, first parade her through the streets to let the people know the consequences of immoral behavior; then dip her into a pig cage! Let her drown alive in the river and not be buried!"

The voice just fell.

Jin Wuwei surged up aggressively.

Concubine Wei and Master Wei looked panicked.

Qin Fengye was very proud.

Only Liu Yao didn't react at all when he was dragged up.

Emperor Yuan Zhen's punishment was not too severe.

Especially the punishment for Bai Jingshu.

The emperor personally issued an order to sink into the pond. How could such a dishonest woman be punished so severely?
From now on, girls from Baifu will be spat on not only when they talk about marriage, but also when they go out.

Liu Yao was unconvinced and wanted to argue.

At this moment, Eunuch Mei walked straight in and handed over to Emperor Zhen of the Yuan Dynasty: "The Queen Mother, please ask Your Majesty to move to Qingning Palace."

Emperor Yuan Zhen frowned: "I still have something to do and am busy. I will go see the empress and his old man later!"

Eunuch Mei was neither humble nor arrogant: "The Queen Mother has ordered Jing Zhaoyin to imprison all the people in Nan'an Marquis Mansion. At this time, Jing Zhaoyin must be leading the imperial army to Nan'an Marquis Mansion."

Emperor Yuanzhen was shocked, but Long Yan was furious: "Why didn't the queen consult me ​​when she made this decision?"

Eunuch Mei was not timid at all: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has the right to listen to government affairs behind the curtain. This was given to the Queen Mother by the late emperor, and it has been effective during her lifetime. The Queen Mother has full power to deal with the Nan'an Marquis Mansion."

Eunuch Mei's attitude represents the attitude of the Queen Mother.

Eunuch Mei moved out of the curtain to listen to the government, which shows that the Queen Mother has begun to leave no room for action.

Qin Fengye was greatly disappointed and looked at Liu Yao unwillingly.

Concubine Wei and Mr. Wei breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Yao's expression finally changed - this must be the way the evil woman said to break the situation.

Emperor Yuan Zhen's eyes were filled with rage, and he stiffened.

After a while, he flicked his sleeves and walked out of Chengming Hall.

Eunuch Mei hurriedly followed.

Jin Wuwei, who was about to take Liu Yao to execution, was at a loss.

Concubine Wei scolded: "Wait for His Majesty's order! Don't back down yet!"

Master Wei sneered at Qin Fengye: "Anyone who does unrighteousness will be killed. I think Grand Master Qin is going to be in bad luck."

Qin Fengye retorted: "Who knows until the last moment? Don't be happy too early, otherwise your joy will be in vain."

Mr. Wei shrugged: "I don't know whether I am happy for nothing, but what is certain is that Mr. Qin's attempt to fetch water from a bamboo basket was in vain. I hope he will not lose his wife and lose his troops."

At this point, Chengming Hall fell into silence.

……

Qingning Palace.

Emperor Yuan Zhen walked in angrily and got furious. He even ignored the weak Queen Mother and even skipped the salute and greetings.

He asked angrily: "Queen Mother! Who is the king of a country?! Why don't you discuss with me how you deal with the Nan'an Marquis Mansion? Have you ever thought about the consequences?!"

Facing the furious Emperor Yuan Zhen, the Queen Mother seemed very calm.

She said slowly and calmly: "Emperor, what happened to the Nan'an Marquis' Mansion? The Nan'an Marquis' Mansion is ashamed of its ancestors and is now a bunch of rogues. Why do you still keep them?"

Emperor Yuan Zhen slapped the back of his hand on his palm, looking very excited: "Queen Mother! There are many Marquises of Dongling! What do the other Marquises think of dealing with the Nan'an Marquis Mansion?"

Although the Queen Mother was weak, the words she spoke were particularly powerful: "The emperor's salary should be shared with the emperor's worries! If someone is not doing anything in his position, he should abdicate and make way for someone more worthy!" "Marquises are hereditary because they are the first to do so. People have made great contributions, and the rewards given to them by their ancestors have nothing to do with them!"

"If they bring shame to their ancestors and destroy the inheritance laid by their ancestors, then they no longer deserve to be protected by their ancestors!"

"The emperor is the king of a country and the lord of Dongling. You have to beat them from time to time and urge these people to work conscientiously and fulfill their duties, so as not to waste all the blessings accumulated by our ancestors."

"Now is not the time to worry about those marquises who think that the royal move is really a 'bird's best bow', but a time to remind them to let others do it if they can't do it well."

These words made Emperor Yuan Zhen speechless.

The royal family gives its ministers fame, fortune and wealth, and the ministers help the royal family handle affairs. This is a matter of course.

If a minister has no merit, he does not deserve to be rewarded.

It's that simple!
Emperor Yuan Zhen can naturally understand.

However, he was still angry at the Queen Mother for taking matters into her own hands: "Mother, you also said that I am the king of a country. How could you not inform me of the destruction of a prince's house?"

The Queen Mother handed the letter that the Prince wrote to Qin Sangman to Emperor Yuan Zhen: "Read it yourself."

Emperor Yuan Zhen took the letter and glanced at it slowly.

He was shocked: "The prince actually did such a thing?!"

The Queen Mother was silent and then said: "You are the only son of the Ai family and the late Emperor. The late Emperor's trust in the Ai family and his love for you made it logical for you to ascend to the throne of God without having to fight with your brothers."

"You have never truly experienced the cruelty and terror of competing for the right of birth among princes. Emperor, you have nine sons. All nine sons have grown up, and their ambitions have also grown. At this time, they are fighting cruelly to strive for the top. It’s time.”

"Although the prince has been sitting on the throne for many years, it does not mean that he will not be wary of his brothers and take action to eliminate dissidents. And those ministers who are loyal to you on the surface have also begun to have other thoughts, wanting to support the next new emperor to ensure that they have a prosperous family. Favored forever."

Emperor Yuan Zhen slowly fell down.

At this moment, he no longer had the aura of dominance.

It seemed a bit frightening and desolate: "Mother, I am still so young, why can't they wait?"

The Queen Mother spoke slowly: "Emperor, looking at the history books, this is something that all dynasties have experienced. On the Prince's side, you must be disciplined and must not indulge."

"Too strict will make him fearful and worried that you will replace him; to be too indulgent will make him lawless and not regard his brother's life as his life. You have to grasp the scale well."

"As for those ministers who hold the prince in their hands, just believe half of what they say in the future. Don't let their plans get to you."

"Especially Qin Fengye. Once the prince ascends the throne, his power will expand several times. By then, he will be able to dominate the world with one hand. His selfishness is particularly great."

Emperor Yuan Zhen murmured: "No wonder, he has always advocated severe punishment for Xiao Jiu."

The Queen Mother added: "The Ai family has heard that there are many leaks about impeaching Xiao Jiu. If the emperor is interested, he will go and check it out. Maybe these people are Qin Fengye's party members."

"Don't blame the Ai family for punishing the Marquis of Nan'an Mansion with a heavy punishment. It's because they failed to live up to their expectations and were ashamed of their ancestors. They deserved it."

"Now they are being used to become the swords between the princes. They are the ones who surrendered and used their family to settle the matter. They are not unjust."

"As for Xiao Jiu, he is the victim this time, and he should be comforted and compensated to prevent him from holding a grudge and retaliating against his brother who swung the knife at him."

Emperor Yuan Zhen was full of cowardice, but he had dissipated unknowingly.

He was still dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's decision, but at least he didn't pursue it further.

It's not that he knows good from evil and knows that the Queen Mother is thinking about him.

But what Prince Liu Yu did made him even more angry.

In the end, he had no intention of arguing with the Queen Mother anymore, so he held the letter and left Qingning Palace.

The Queen Mother sighed softly and couldn't help but shake her head: "The prince's temperament is exactly the same as that of the emperor. Among the many princes, Xiaojiu is the most upright, but it is a pity that he is not the direct descendant or the elder."

……

At the entrance of the palace, Bai Mingwei got on the sedan chair.

Ah Liu's voice blew in as the wind opened the sedan curtain: "Congratulations, girl, on your great victory!"

Bai Ming said softly: "Don't be too busy congratulating, the matter is not over yet."
