The big drama finally came to an end, and everyone was shocked by the twists and turns.
I came with the intention of watching the crown prince's fall, but unexpectedly watched the whole process of Prime Minister Qin's fall.
They looked at Xia Jingyun, who was standing in the middle of the field, with complicated expressions. They had heard earlier that Shi Dingzhong, the unlucky guy, was brought down by this man. They had also sneered at him, wondering how a young man in his early twenties could possibly do this. Such a big thing!
He must be putting money on his face and taking advantage of the opportunity to build momentum!
But now, under their noses, Xia Jingyun's plan clearly and directly happened. The Qin family was in power and was once famous. I was exiled and my son died.
Such a big prime minister's mansion suddenly disappeared!
At this moment, the image of this young man in their eyes was like the image of the old man who had just fallen.
This court is always like this, with a new generation replacing the old.
But this time, this newcomer is too new.
Thinking that he was only twenty years old and would have at least thirty to fifty years of good life if nothing unexpected happened, many people couldn't help but feel despair for his peers and descendants.
But those who are smarter have already begun to think about flattery.
“Mr.
"Young Master Xia cares about the world and has made great contributions to the country. He has achieved such a special honor this time. Your Majesty will definitely receive praises. The clouds are rising and are just around the corner. I, Taichang Temple Taichang Minister, congratulate Mr. Xia!"
"If it weren't for Young Master Xia, we would have been deceived by traitors like Qin Weizhong and sanctimonious people like Qin Sichao for who knows how long. It is a great blessing that our country has Young Master Xia and that we can meet Young Master Xia!"
Amidst the flattery, Guang Luqing stood there dumbfounded.
He stared blankly at the empty field, looking at the gradually drying blood on the wall, and opened his mouth slightly in a daze.
Just a few days ago, he rejected the sincere invitation from the Marquis of Jiang An, and then thought he was smart and chose an absolutely safe side.
However, today, this absolutely safe party became the first to fall among the many forces in the capital.
But, damn it, I just joined a few days ago!
Anyway, I regret it now.
With Qin Li's support, Mr. Qin came to Xia Jingyun, saluted sincerely, and said sincerely:
“Mr.
Xia Jingyun knew that the old man in front of him was really moved, and was not just showing off his acting skills like before. He stretched out his hand to support him and said warmly: "Mr. Fengyang, there is no need to be polite. I am also involved in this matter. By proving your innocence, Mr. Fengyang Don’t worry too much about the Qin family.”
After saying that, he and Qin Li looked at each other and smiled.
The people on the side also quickly started to praise him.
"Oh! Mr. Xia is indeed very righteous! His integrity is admirable!"
"Isn't it true? If it had been anyone else, they wouldn't have been able to repay the favor immediately!"
"Ahem!"
A cough sounded, and the British Duke strode out of the hall with a dark face. Everyone subconsciously closed their mouths in embarrassment.
The British Duke glanced at Xia Jingyun with complicated eyes. Even he did not expect that Xia Jingyun actually knocked down Qin Weizhong and buried the entire prime minister's palace in the soil at the same time, and he was absolutely unable to stand up.
All the things he had imagined came to nothing with this result.
However, Xia Jingyun, Concubine De and the Prince of Jiaodong behind him would use this frightening power to soar to great heights.
Thinking of this, the British father did not want to see Xia Jingyun's face after victory for a moment, nor did he want to see the other people's flattering and respectful smiles towards Xia Jingyun, nor did he want to stay on the battlefield where the other party had won.
So he strode away, planning to go back home and chop up a few more scarecrows.
From a certain point of view, although he has been suppressed and beaten by Xia Jingyun, it is not without benefits. Maybe he can also develop a good physique.
The British Duke left, and the old King Qi also walked out with the support of his entourage, came to Xia Jingyun, and said with a smile: "Young people are scary, come and sit in Prince Qi's mansion when you have time."
Xia Jingyun bowed and held his hands, and King Qi slowly left.
Behind King Qi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who had survived the disaster, came out and took two steps in the direction of Xia Jingyun before hesitating again.
Xia Jingyun smiled and cupped his hands, "Your Highness, walk slowly."
The prince who subconsciously had some thoughts of wooing him also realized at this moment that there were absolute differences and conflicts between himself and Xia Jingyun, and there was no possibility of easing them. He had no choice but to put aside the friendship of fighting side by side for a short time, nodded, and took a big step. leave.
With the prince's departure, this court trial also ended completely.
Xia Jingyun found an excuse, said goodbye and left.
——
When this group of people went home, the breaking news seemed to have wings and flew to all parts of Zhongjing City.
In the palace of Prince Cheng.
King Cheng was sitting in the main hall, looking at Prince Cheng standing at the door like a monkey scratching his butt, frowning, "Can you come and sit here! Such a big man has no concentration at all!"
Prince Cheng shook his head, "The prince is deposed. What a big deal this is! What if I get a little excited?"
"Does that have anything to do with you? Your Majesty has so many close princes, can he choose you to be the prince?"
"Father, if you say that, you are losing your temper!"
Prince Cheng walked back to the chair and slumped in it without any image, "I usually only pay attention to those who have something to do with me, and you dislike me. Now I need to pay more attention. You also dislike me, so what should I do?" manage?"
King Cheng rolled his eyes, "The only thing that has anything to do with you is women!"
"I'm not good at being a man either!"
"you!"
King Cheng was about to slap him, but the housekeeper hurried in.
Prince Cheng stood up like a carp, showing his excellent waist and abdomen that had been trained for a long time, and said urgently: "How is it? Are you sure?"
The housekeeper nodded, "It's decided."
King Cheng frowned, "If it's decided, it's decided. If it's not decided, it's not decided. What do you mean it's decided."
The butler looked helpless, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be deposed, but Prime Minister Qin will be overthrown."
"What?"
"ha?"
Prince Cheng and his son were both surprised.
The steward said: "At the beginning, this matter was indeed headed in the direction of the prince being deposed. The great old King Qi came over, but just when the old King Qi was about to escort the prince into Zongzheng Temple, Mr. Xia stood Out."
King Cheng was stunned, "Which Mr. Xia?"
The housekeeper quickly explained: "He is Empress Dowager De's adopted brother, Duke Jie Yuang of Sishui Prefecture."
Prince Cheng, who felt that he was not qualified to participate, wondered: "How dare cats and dogs get involved in such a big event?"
The housekeeper waved his hand subconsciously, "Your Majesty, I don't want to say this!"
Prince Cheng looked disdainful, "What? Is this prince still afraid of him?"
The housekeeper couldn't say much, so he secretly said that you will know when I finish speaking. Then he explained Xia Jingyun's operations in detail, and then looked at the stunned prince and prince, "As soon as the rebel label is put down, Mr. Qin He immediately became anxious and retorted immediately, Mr. Xia also retorted, but at this moment, Prime Minister Qin came."
King Cheng was about to say that Xia Jingyun would definitely be dead if this generation of powerful ministers were present, but he thought of the result he just said and couldn't help but wonder: "Qin Prime Minister is here, how can Xia Jingyun turn the tables?"
The steward twitched his lips and said, "Your Majesty is here too."
Prince Cheng and his son both changed their expressions again, "Your Majesty?"
Others don't know, but King Cheng knows what his royal brother is thinking, and he cares most about his reputation behind his back. Therefore, he spent so much effort and all kinds of calculations and asked King Qi to come forward, just to be fair and honest, and to make it impossible for outsiders to find fault. Let the prince abdicate.
But now His Majesty actually arrived at the scene, which shows that he has already had a tendency!
However, even so, they still did not expect the next direction of the matter. When he heard Qin Sichao scolding Emperor Chongning in person, King Cheng felt that his legs were weakening.
Mother!
How arrogant and seeking death is this!
And at the end, when I heard that His Majesty was planning to have Prime Minister Qin exiled to Yueyang City in Yunmeng Prefecture, a chill instantly filled his back.
Your Majesty is determined not to want Prime Minister Qin to die too comfortably!
Cruel enough!
When Prince Cheng heard this, he suddenly agreed a little more with what the butler had just said.
Someone like Xia Jingyun, who could fool Qin Sichao into a fool in just a few seconds, was really something he couldn't afford to offend.
"Indeed, I'd better not mess with this kind of person. I'm afraid I can only compete with him in the brothel."
"Brothel?" King Cheng snorted, "You don't know that it doesn't cost money to go to a brothel to sleep with an oiran now!"
Prince Cheng:.——
In the central courtyard, the Minister of Civil Affairs walked to Prime Minister Qin's room and looked at one of his staff, "Prime Minister Qin hasn't come back yet?"
"Well, the Prime Minister has gone out on business. Mr. Yang will put the documents here. When the Prime Minister comes back, I will hand them over to him."
The Minister of Staff nodded and placed a pile of folds on Prime Minister Qin's table. Just as he was about to turn around, there was a sound of footsteps and the collision of armors at the door of the courtyard.
In the court hall, he was not unfamiliar with such movements, so he quickly went out to check.
In the remaining rooms, central ministers also quickly walked out.
Looking at the majestic and armored Forbidden Army, the hearts of all the central bosses suddenly tightened. The unknown evil hidden in their hearts suddenly surged up, and the same thought came to their minds: They are not here to arrest me, are they?
Fortunately, this tension disappeared in an instant, because in the eyes of everyone, the commander of the Forbidden Army led a group of Forbidden Army soldiers and walked straight towards the Minister of Civil Affairs.
The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel suddenly felt a little trembling in his calves. Didn't he just receive some money from officials to buy the road? Why spend such a big battle?
Everyone is greedy, why should they only arrest me?
Seeing Commander Shang of the Forbidden Army getting closer and closer, just when the Minister of Civil Affairs was about to lose his legs and knelt down to beg for mercy, he heard the Commander of the Forbidden Army shouting: "We have been ordered to capture the traitor Qin Weizhong's associates. The rest of the princes, please wait for a while." avoid!"
The Minister of Staff suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and leaned weakly against the door.
Immediately his eyes widened suddenly, traitor? Qin Weizhong?
