At this moment, a sweet voice sounded in the court hall.
"Father!"
The ministers all held their breaths, but when they suddenly heard this voice, it was as if their tense emotions were caressed away by a hand, and they all breathed involuntarily. Even Chu Yang's gloomy expression relaxed at this moment. down.
Looking back, a slim figure walked in from outside the hall.
This figure was none other than Chu Ruoyan, Princess of the Crescent Moon. She was dressed in colorful clothes, walking gracefully in lotus steps. She was as light as a beautiful butterfly and flew to the center of the hall. In an instant, the gloomy and tense atmosphere in the hall was gone. The atmosphere was swept away, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.
The ministers all breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.
Of course, some people couldn't help but frown.
When the emperor and the courtiers are discussing matters, no one can enter or leave the hall at will, let alone interrupt the meeting, but this princess is different. Everyone knows that she is the most beloved daughter of His Majesty the Emperor. When she was a child, she even carried her to the court to discuss political affairs. When she cried, even major affairs of the government could be put on hold. Who dared to say anything at this time?
Sure enough, not only was Chu Yang not angry, but a smile immediately appeared on his originally gloomy face: "Why are you here?"
Princess Xinyue raised her skirt, knelt down Yingying, bowed to the emperor, then knelt straight and said, "Father has been having trouble sleeping and eating these days because of Xingluocang's affairs. In order to share his worries with his father, Xinyue, I specially prepared snacks and plum wine with my own hands, right over at Nuanwu, to welcome my father."
"Xin Yue is indeed filial, but my father——"
"Didn't my father also promise Xinyue before that as long as Xingluocang is conquered, he would spare a day to accompany Xinyue to enjoy the snow and paint? He looked forward to the new moon every day, and finally looked forward to the day of great victory. Why did my father forget it?"
"..."
"Could it be that now that the granary has been knocked down, my father's words can no longer count?"
As she spoke, she pouted her little mouth and looked at the Ninth Five Supreme Being on the dragon throne with grievance.
Although it was a resentful expression, the beauty of the Crescent Moon Princess was still cute and cute, making people feel pity for her. Chu Yang couldn't help but laugh as soon as he looked at his daughter's appearance.
While laughing, he said: "Okay, it's my father's fault. My father will accompany you to enjoy the snow."
After saying that, he stood up holding on to the armrest of the dragon chair.
Seeing him like this, Wang Shaoji's face immediately darkened and he said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, if Yu Wenye's rebellion is not dealt with in time, there will be endless troubles!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yang's expression darkened again.
However, before he could speak, Princess Crescent Moon, who had already stood up, said to Wang Shaoji, "Rebellion? Mr. Wang, who do you think is going to rebel?"
Wang Shaoji said: "Your Royal Highness, what the minister is talking about is naturally Yu Wenye, who respects his own troops and relies on his merits and bravery!"
He said, repeating what he just said.
Princess Crescent Moon blinked her big eyes and listened, then covered her mouth and chuckled: "General Wang is really thoughtful, but there is one thing you seem to have missed."…
Wang Shaoji frowned: "What's the matter?"
Princess Crescent Moon said: "The wife of the general of the auxiliary country did not go with him when he went on the expedition. Instead, she went out of the city to give him winter clothes after seeing heavy snowfall for several days after he went on the expedition. She was worried that he would be frozen. What's more, if Yu Wenye really wanted to rebel, why did he only bring his wife but not even his brothers?"
"brother?"
"Yes, the young master of Sheng Guogong's family is still studying in the city."
"..."
"Who is rebelling and doesn't even take his own brothers with him?"
Seeing that she looked innocent but asked the question in a loud and clear manner, Wang Shaoji wanted to refute, but it was too embarrassing for the emperor to say anything. He could only grit his teeth hard, with veins on his forehead. The rise of stocks.
Seeing this situation, Guan Ao on the other side said hurriedly: "Yes, Your Majesty, what Her Royal Highness the Princess said makes sense."
. If Yu Wenye really had the intention to rebel, he should have made preparations in advance to move his family out of Dongdu City. Why would he only take his wife with him? Besides, if he wants to rebel, there is no need to follow His Majesty's will and focus on taking Xingluocang, and even send someone to send back the battle report. "
"..."
"Therefore, Wei Chen believes that General Wang's concerns are completely groundless. Please judge by His Majesty!"
"..."
Above the main hall, it was so quiet at this time that you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone held their breath and lowered their heads carefully.
I don't know how much time passed, but I saw Chu Yang holding the armrest of the dragon chair and slowly sitting back. He looked down at Guan Ao's sweating face, then looked at Wang Shao and his livid face, and his own The big eyes on the face of my beloved daughter are shining with hope.
Finally, he raised his head and glanced outside the hall.
After being silent for a long time, he said slowly: "Wang Aiqing, what you said makes sense——"
There was another heavy sigh in the main hall, and it seemed that many people couldn't help but gasped. Guan Ao had already raised his head and looked at the emperor with some horror.
The next moment, Chu Yang said again: "But the Yuwen family has been loyal for generations, and the general who helped the country worked hard to conquer Xingluo Cang this time has made great achievements. I think I treat him well, and come to think of it, he will not put the voice of his father and the whole family." Regardless of the lives of the young and old, they committed evil deeds that would kill the nine clans."
Wang Shaoji's heart sank: "But Your Majesty——"
Chu Yang waved his hand, interrupted his words, and said: "Let the Chancellor prepare an edict first, and tell the general of the Fu Kingdom to return to the court - all the troops and horses led by him will stay at Xingluocang, and there is no need to return to the city."
"..."
"As for Yu Wenye's killing of the supervisor, let it be immediately handed over to Dali Temple for review. We will ask for the reason and determine whether it is a merit or demerit. We will make a decision after deliberation!"
Wang Shaoji wanted to say something else, but Guan Ao, who was standing beside him, knelt down and bowed his head: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Some other officials also knelt down on the ground, shouting "Long Live the Mountain". Hearing the echoing voices all around, Wang Shaoji's face darkened, but he had nothing to say. He could only grit his teeth, kneel down and say: "yes."
Seeing that the matter had been decided, Princess Xinyue immediately walked forward happily, took Chu Yang's arm, and the father and daughter left the hall together. The remaining officials also watched the emperor and the princess leave. They all stood up and prepared to leave.
Only Wang Shaoji looked at the back of Princess Crescent Moon with a sinister look in his eyes, but the next moment, he saw a beautiful and dignified figure flash past outside the hall.
Wang Shaoji's expression suddenly froze, and then he understood something.
After a while, he turned back and looked at the figure among the ministers who had been standing still but said nothing.
An air of conspiracy spread in his eyes. .
