Su Xuan quickly crawled to the ground.
"Your Majesty is overly complimentary."
"Ai Qing, I don't need to give you this great gift. I'm asking you because I want to know how much Ai Qing knows so that I can be clear about it. Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be fooled by those mediocre officials again tomorrow morning. I also saw the behavior of Commander Zhou Hui of Jin Yiwei, he is just a flattering villain!"
Su Xuan did not respond, but talked about what he saw. The empress listened to every word without missing a word. After Su Xuan finished the report, he pondered for a long time before speaking.
"Mr. Su, can I think that someone instigated Jinyiwei's inaction today? Or, could it be said that it was done by people who were not in Weiyang Palace today and people who were not injured in Weiyang Palace?"
Su Xuan did not hide his intentions. In this palace, Su Xuan had no nominal enemies, and there was no one he disliked. Even if there was a little dispute, Su Xuan did not mean to kill the other party, so Su Xuan When explaining the situation, he never pointed out anyone's name, but he knew that the empress would definitely have her own ideas.
Even if Su Xuan didn't want to attack anyone, the empress already had someone to eradicate in her heart. Once the incident in Weiyang Palace happened, as Gu Ming said, things would change in the palace, and dozens of officials would die. , the emperor was poisoned, and none of the guards in the palace responded. Every single piece of information was enough to cause huge changes in the situation in the entire palace.
But now they have come together. The intrigues of power in the palace have never cared about the truth, and no one deliberately wants to know the truth. The so-called truth is written by the winner who finally stands on the stage. Now , the empress is the winner and the one in power standing on the stage, and she can finally decide who is the real murderer.
Su Xuan kept an eye on it, just to see what the empress' real intention was. He didn't believe that his use was only to carry on the family line. Although he was a chess piece now, he still wanted to jump out of the chessboard and give those in power a hard blow. one strike.
"Weichen doesn't know. He only knows that dozens of officials have been killed today. Weichen thinks that he can start with the killed officials for the time being. Although the late emperor explicitly prohibited the formation of cliques among officials, Or form some groups such as fellows’ associations, but Weichen feels that this phenomenon still exists, and it has gathered into a considerable force!"
Su Xuan left a gap without explaining it clearly, allowing the empress with a great desire for power to guess that the best strategy of a counselor is never to design a trap, but to simply point out a way and let the enemy jump into the hole he dug. middle! Now Su Xuan's words seemed to mean nothing and were not directed at anyone, but they gave the empress a psychological hint of her own.
"I understand what Aiqing said."
The empress retracted her hand outside the gauze, and her voice turned cold again.
"Okay, dear, my body is fine, please step back."
Su Xuan saw through the empress's style, but it didn't matter that her attitude was sometimes cold and sometimes fiery. As long as his goal was achieved, he no longer cared and just followed the empress's approach. Su Xuan temporarily figured out that this young empress was going to start Through this incident, I can enrich my own wings and eliminate some veterans.
"Then Wei Chen resigned!"
When Su Xuan walked to the entrance of the palace, the empress's voice sounded again.
"I love your body..."
The Empress' words were on her lips, and she swallowed them in the end, but still didn't say them out. Of course Su Xuan heard a little bit, vaguely, but didn't hear them clearly. However, since the Empress didn't mean to finish her words, there was no need to ask again, no matter it was When did Su Xuan understand that in this palace, one needs to be measured, and it doesn't matter whether it's over or under!
When Su Xuan completely left the palace, the empress sat up straight and said to herself: "Did I do the right thing?"
"I don't know whether your majesty did the right thing, but as the old saying goes, your actions have your heart in mind. As long as your majesty feels that there is no problem in doing so, you don't have to worry about the opinions of the world. In the end, only your majesty's achievements will be left in the history books!"
A figure appeared in the darkness, and an old voice echoed in the emperor's palace.
"But do I kill so many officials just because I want to eradicate dissidents? Although most of them are corrupt officials, there are still some honest officials. I want to prevent the whole thing from looking so ridiculous, so I can only do this."
"Old minister understands..."
There was a bit of helplessness in the old voice. He had watched the empress grow up. The old man knew that the empress was innocent and innocent since she was a child. He also knew that the empress had changed since the death of the late emperor. She did not want to control the country, but really wanted to control the country. I want the Great Xia Dynasty to change for the better and become like the peaceful world written in that book.
"Your Majesty, there are two men in black who have escaped. Do you need me to silence them?"
The empress nodded slightly. She had no patience or charity towards these desperadoes. They were dead. The men in black were not even chess pieces, they were just trash thrown away after use.
"What do you think of Su Xuan now?" The empress was not in a hurry to let the other party catch the escaped bugs. No matter how far they escaped, they would not be able to escape the huge net of the palace.
"The veteran thinks it is useful. Su Xuan is a man with deep connections in the city, but he is not bad-tempered. What he said just now is not targeted at all, which shows that he has no enemies in the palace. Moreover, the veteran has observed that various forces in the palace They all want to make good friends with him. Even though your majesty has some connections with him, we absolutely cannot deny that he must have merits."
The old man pondered for a while and then continued: "The whole process in Weiyang Palace was witnessed by the old minister. Su Xuan was decisive and had ideas, but he lacked some martial arts. As long as he knew some martial arts, His Majesty's plan tonight might be in vain. To be honest, the old minister was surprised that the little girl from the Qiang tribe could use the secret technique with Su Xuan. However, the old minister did follow his majesty's order and specially selected a person with good skills to go in. Only then was there no danger. .”
The empress nodded. Although she did not fully observe everything that happened in the palace today, the old man beside her always protected her safety. If anything went wrong, she would take action immediately. Now he also explained the entire situation to her. , more detailed than Su Xuan.
"Okay, you go and kill those bugs first, I'm going to bed."
"Old minister, please retire!"
After the old man's figure disappeared into the night, the empress slowly lay down. She turned her face and looked at the full moon outside the window. As the saying goes, the fifteen-year-old moon is sixteen full.
