"You bastard, you actually want to kill me. I'm going to destroy your whole family." Seeing Concubine Lan disappear from sight, Chen Nan slammed a flower pot.
"From now on, no one can enter Yuqing Palace."
Chen Nan's loud shout was equivalent to sealing off the entire Yuqing Palace. A group of eunuchs quickly took orders and locked the door immediately after Chen Nan left.
Not far from Yuqing Palace, some sneaky figures saw this situation and left in a hurry.
Chen Nan sat on the dragon chariot and pretended to look around. When he saw someone sneaking in, his face turned ugly.
Following the voice of Eunuch Niu, the entire Tai Chi Hall fell into silence. All the courtiers looked at me and I looked at you. What is going on today? They actually came here to go to court.
Chen Nan strode into the Tai Chi Hall and sat down directly on the throne that represented the highest power in the feudal era. It was a position that many people yearned for.
In the past, he also dreamed of becoming an emperor, but when he actually ascended the throne, he realized that he did not do well.
Chen Nan glanced at him, and all the officials knelt down and shouted long live the emperor. Looking at the densely packed heads, everyone lowered their heads, as if they were bowing their heads, but the one who really regarded him as the emperor was Very few.
The original owner was not a wise king. When he was the crown prince, he did not care about political affairs and only knew how to have fun. Among the five adult princes of the late emperor, he was the most useless.
It's a pity that the relationship between the late emperor and the empress was extremely close. Even if the late emperor died, he was still a waste and always remained in the position of prince. The various forces in the Liang Dynasty were also entangled with each other and restricted each other.
In the end, his incompetent prince became the emperor, but he never came to Tai Chi Hall again, but indulged in pleasure like a fatuous king.
Only Chen Nan, who has inherited the memory of the original owner, can understand how difficult it is for him and how hard it is.
"Oh, I will complete your life for you and fulfill your wish."
"Ministers, do you know about my assassination?"
"Your Majesty, I heard that you were poisoned in Yuqing Palace. You'd better arrest Concubine Lan and her family as soon as possible."
"Oh, Zeng Aiqing is really powerful. You have already guessed it before I opened my mouth. You also guessed that I was poisoned. It seems that you have guessed who the murderer is." Chen Nan said to Prime Minister Zeng Sihai with a half-smile. said.
"Your Majesty, I——"
"Keep your voice down, dear friends, is there any sound of hooves outside?" Chen Nan ignored Zeng Xiangguo, but put his finger to his lips to signal everyone to be quiet.
Everyone in the civil and military court looked weird. Zeng Xiangguo even said with some disdain: "Your Majesty, you must have heard wrong. Why are there horses running into the palace?"
All the ministers had mocking expressions on their faces. In their opinion, the emperor was afraid.
He did not answer, but just maintained this action, but not long after, the laughter of the officials stopped suddenly, the footsteps became louder, and some people could even tell that it was a horse.
"Why are there horses?" All the officials changed their expressions, and Zeng Xiangguo blurted out, but no one could answer. The answer was already available in the Tai Chi Hall.
"General Lan Yuan is here."
"please."
"Da da da" a burst of rapid footsteps sounded, and not long after, a burly young general walked in.
Lan Yuan, Concubine Lan's younger brother, is in charge of a large number of troops outside the city. General Lan Sheng's son, General Xiaoqi.
"Your Majesty, Lan Yuan, pays homage to the Emperor. Your Majesty may live forever." Lan Yuan walked into the Tai Chi Hall, knelt down and saluted Chen Nan.
"Lan Yuan, you are so brave. You actually brought a sharp weapon to the main hall. Do you want to plot rebellion?" Before Lan Yuan could speak, an official pointed at Lan Yuan's nose and asked.
"I agree, do you have any objections?"
"Subordinate, I don't dare." Seeing Chen Nan's bad attitude, the official quickly knelt down and trembled.
Chen Nan's eyes were like lightning, and he looked around. All the officials in the Tai Chi Hall lowered their heads, feeling very proud. They had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"Dear dear friends, I believe you all know what happened yesterday. I can responsibly inform you that he was indeed murdered."
Chen Nan's words were like a bombshell, instantly arousing thousands of waves. The civil and military officials in the court had different expressions, and the expressions on everyone's faces were recorded by him one by one.
"I think that dear ladies are not involved in this matter, but some people may have doubts in their hearts. Who will give this matter to dear ladies? Give them paper and pen, one copy for each person, and list the suspects one by one. , and then you can leave.”
"Your Majesty, this..."
"Zeng Aiqing, what did you say?"
"No, I don't know anything."
"You don't know anything, just be quiet." Chen Nan's voice suddenly rose, and all the civil and military officials looked at him. At this moment, the emperor seemed different from before.
"Everyone must sign their name on it. If one person does not, I will conclude that you are behind this matter. It will only last for two hours. General Lan must keep a close eye on it."
"Yes." Lan Yuan waved, and dozens of soldiers rushed over and surrounded the officials present. Looking at the murderous soldiers, including Zeng Xiangguo, they were all as silent as a chill.
Chen Nan glanced at the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and strode towards the palace. It was not yet time for reckoning. The top priority was to rectify the harem and prevent it from catching fire.
Supported by a maid, Concubine Lan stumbled over and knelt in front of him, holding a token in her hand.
"Your Majesty, I have completed my mission."
"No need to be polite." Chen Nan quickly pulled Concubine Lan over. She saw that Concubine Lan was dirty and her shoes were missing. The clean shoes were covered with mud and wounds everywhere.
"Ruyu, thank you for your hard work." Chen Nan helped Lan Fei up, and felt a pain in his heart when he saw her face was pale and there were several wounds on her feet.
In the morning, Chen Nan handed over the tiger talisman to Concubine Lan. Concubine Lan had completed her task and transferred Lan Yuan here with hundreds of thousands of troops. At this time, Kyoto and even the palace were under his control.
"Ruyu, please rest first. I'll go see you tonight." After saying that, he asked Concubine Lan to lie down on the couch, and he tucked her in while another maid served beside her.
"Boom." The moment Chen Nan turned around, the sky was clear, dark clouds were covered, thunder roared, and big raindrops fell on the ground.
"It's a heavy rain, it's time to kill people." Outside Yuqing Palace, more than a thousand eunuchs and maids knelt on the ground. Lan Yuan understood and waved, and a maid from Yuqing Palace was escorted down.
"Your Majesty, forgive me, Your Majesty, forgive me." The maid in the rain kept pleading.
He just sat quietly at the entrance of Yuqing Palace, watching a famous palace maid and eunuch being taken away and tortured by soldiers. The remaining palace maidens and eunuchs were shivering and stood in the rain, waiting for their fate.
"Perhaps in the eyes of some people, I am a person who can be killed at will."
