After one night, the palace door slowly opened at dawn, and two teams of guards slowly walked out, replacing those who had been guarding here all night.
It was not yet nine o'clock in the morning, and speeding cars were already landing outside the palace gate one after another. At 8:40, all the ministers in the court hall had arrived, but probably few of them had actually fallen asleep last night. Therefore, after Xiao Tingyun arrived, he saw that all the ministers in the palace were turning green.
Xiao Tingyun was still wearing the prince's palace uniform. After entering the palace, he still sat on his original prince's chair. He didn't even look at the emperor's seat above the golden steps. One glance.
However, even if he didn't actually sit on it, the ministers in the hall still felt a great pressure from him.
Especially after seeing that the people guarding outside the palace had been replaced by the former Xingce Army, some ministers who were not too courageous couldn't help but start to feel weak in their legs. They felt that today's prince did not seem to be holding a court meeting. , but wanted to trap them all here and then catch them all. After all, after they returned from the palace last night, they still knew more or less what was going on in the city.
However, there were also some people who were a little more courageous who were quietly looking at Xiao Tingyun's expression today, but no matter how they looked, they found that they couldn't see a single clue on the prince's face, and then these people's hearts gradually changed. Rin, I deeply felt that I had underestimated the Crown Prince in the past. In the past, they only thought that the Crown Prince was capable and thoughtful, but they could still see some of his thoughts from the emotions in his eyes. But now they After taking another look, they discovered that what they could see before was actually just what His Highness the Crown Prince was willing to reveal for them to see. Once he stopped showing it, they couldn't see even half of it.
Such unpredictable and unpredictable thoughts, and then think about what happened yesterday, even people like them who have lived half their lives can't do it, but now a young man in his twenties can do it, Who among these people who have spent most of their lives in officialdom would not be frightened.
While these people were looking at them carefully, Xiao Tingyun was also looking at them calmly, so he could see the complex emotions in some people's eyes.
Xiao Tingyun didn't speak, and no one in the hall spoke. The atmosphere became tense before the meeting even started.
But Xiao Tingyun didn't really leave these people alone for too long. After a moment of dead silence, he suddenly smiled and broke the silence first, saying: "It seems that there was too much noise in the city last night, and all the adults were too noisy. Get some rest, it’s only been one night and you are all feeling quite haggard.”
Hearing this, many people in the palace couldn't help but break into cold sweats. For a moment, they couldn't guess whether His Highness the Crown Prince was really making fun of them or mocking them.
However, after a moment of silence, Finance Minister Shen Qingshi said with a smile: "As this person gets older, his courage becomes less and less. If there is any disturbance outside, he will be too frightened to sleep. If you don't accept it, you will never be able to do it. Your Highness, the Crown Prince, won't do it." You’re laughing at us.”
Because of the relationship between Shen Qiao and Xiao Tingyun, Xiao Tingyun has always been very polite to Shen Qingshi. Even though Shen Qingshi didn't express his love for him in these years, Shen Qingshi acquiesced in the fact that his second son was close to Xiao Tingyun. You can see his attitude.
Therefore, among the ministers in the palace, except for the princelings who had been facing Xiao Tingyun, only Shen Qingshi could still talk to Xiao Tingyun with the same attitude as before after experiencing yesterday's great changes.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tingyun glanced at Shen Qingshi with a smile, and said warmly: "Master Shen is still young, it's still too early to serve his old age."
Shen Qingshi smiled cheerfully. Although he did not continue to be polite to Xiao Tingyun, after his conversation, the atmosphere in the hall became more relaxed. At least those whose legs were weak before did not feel weak anymore.
After the greetings, Xiao Tingyun also began to talk about today's business. He calmed down slightly, looked at everyone and said: "As for what Gu said last night, after a whole night, do you adults still have any objections? "
What did you say last night?
whats the matter?
Naturally, Xiao Tingyun decided to disclose the emperor's crimes to the public.
After the events last night, everyone present did not dare to speak out even if they had any objections. In addition, they had already learned about the strength of His Highness the Crown Prince here last night. What else could they say?
So after Xiao Tingyun finished speaking, everyone shook their heads and said, "I have no objection."
Their knowledge made Xiao Tingyun quite satisfied. Then he looked at Tan Su in the crowd and ordered: "Sir Tan, please take out the chip that I gave you last night. Let everyone present first." After you all have read it, you will hand the chip to the Security Agency, and ask the Security Agency to publish the cause and effect, together with the evidence, and publish it on the Interstellar Network using the official account of the royal family."
Tan Su had already prepared, so he prepared a small holographic projector before coming to the court today.
The holographic projector was only the size of an egg. Tan Su took it out directly from his pocket. At the same time, he also took out the pocket chip that Xiao Tingyun gave him last night. Then, under everyone's gaze, he stuck the chip in. In the holographic projector.
The small holographic projector was activated immediately, a beam of blue light shot out from it, and then a picture slowly appeared in mid-air.
For fifteen years, what happened in the emperor's chamber was unfolded in front of everyone's eyes scene by scene on the holographic projector.
And as the events of that year were revealed, some of the veterans who followed Emperor Zhaoxu back then had red eyes. Looking at Xiao Junchen and Lu Qingzhu in the holographic screen, these veterans had expressions that they wished they could eat them alive.
If this pair of adulterers and adulterers worked together, how could the late Emperor Zhaoxu have died so early? Although the late emperor was seriously injured on the battlefield, with the medical technology and treatment cabins at that time, he could be nursed back to health in a few years at most.
Xiao Tingyun also looked at the picture in the projection, his expression indifferent and showing no emotion at all.
Only Long Jiu, who turned into a little silver dragon and coiled around his wrist, could feel the emotions suppressed to the extreme by Xiao Tingyun.
The little silver dragon moved slightly, then poked his head out of the cuff, and licked the back of Xiao Tingyun's hand a few times soothingly.
Xiao Tingyun felt something strange, and lowered his eyes to look down. When he saw Long Jiu's movements, the depth in his eyes suddenly seemed to disperse like clouds, and a little warmth burst out.
It wasn't until the scene played on the projection ended that Xiao Tingyun raised his eyes and looked at the people in the hall. At this moment, whether they were facing him or those facing Xiao Junchen, the expressions on their faces were not good-looking. The former looked extremely resentful. , if Xiao Junchen hadn't been here again, I'm afraid these people would not be able to help but tear him apart, and the latter probably never thought that what Xiao Tingyun said back then was actually true, and they also didn't think that Xiao Junchen was really Would you be so bold as to poison the late emperor?
Tan Su took out the chip from the holographic projector with a cold face and handed it to Zhang Guangbai, the top administrator of the Security Agency.
Zhang Guangbai's hand was shaking when he took the chip, but before he could put the chip away, Xiao Tingyun suddenly called Lu Zhan in who was guarding outside the hall, and then took a chip from Lu Zhan's hand. folder and handed it to him.
Xiao Tingyun: "This is the test report of the remaining juice in the bowl of soup extracted from my father's pajamas. The poison that Xiao Junchen and the others used to kill my father is a kind of poison that can destroy a person's neurons and The characteristic of the unknown highly toxic gene chain is that once it enters the human body, it cannot be detected by any detection instrument."
Having said this, Xiao Tingyun smiled coldly and continued: "They probably believed in this poison too much, or thought they were the only ones in the emperor's chamber that night, so they left with peace of mind after seeing their father die. Therefore, the scene was not cleaned up. But Gu witnessed it all with his own eyes, so when he was sorting out his father's belongings, Gu asked the guards around him to secretly change out of the pajamas that his father was wearing that night. That kind of Although the poison cannot be detected after it enters the human body, the residual juice spilled on the pajamas can be extracted."
Zhang Guangbai took the folder with trembling hands and seemed to want to open it, but in the end he held back.
However, several veterans present could not sit still. Regardless of the fact that the prince was still here, they immediately grabbed the folder from Zhang Guangbai's hand and took out the test report inside with trembling hands.
However, after watching it, several old ministers burst into tears, especially the one who was selected by the late emperor as the auxiliary minister. While crying, the late emperor cursed Xiao Junchen. However, the old man had been a refined gentleman all his life, and he could only scold Xiao Junchen. So a word or two.
Xiao Tingyun saw that the old man's face was turning green, and he was afraid that he would be really angry, so he quickly stretched out his hand to support him, and motioned to Shen Qing with his eyes to come over and comfort him.
Shen Qingshi's face was also not very good, but he still came over to support the old man and comforted him: "Mr. Wen, don't be too excited. Your health is not very good. If I make you angry again, Anyway, who will assist His Highness the Crown Prince in the future? You are the auxiliary minister personally selected by the late Emperor. After His Highness the Crown Prince succeeds to the throne, there will be many times when we will need you."
Wen Zhouji was originally the teacher of the late Emperor Zhaoxu. It is not an exaggeration to say that he was the emperor's teacher. After the late emperor was seriously injured that year, he was appointed by the late emperor as an auxiliary minister to assist the future prince. However, after the death of the late emperor Zhaoxu, he was not Instead of the young prince succeeding to the throne, the one who succeeded was Xiao Junchen. After Xiao Junchen succeeded to the throne, the former emperor's advisor and the late emperor's personal auxiliary minister was naturally abandoned by Xiao Junchen, although he was not demoted. He was given an official position, but he was given a high-ranking but powerless sinecure.
Now being reminded by Shen Qingshi, Wen Zhouji, who was originally grief-stricken, finally remembered the responsibility he shouldered. He immediately suppressed his grief and calmed down his mind, but still said angrily: "Of course I have to live a good life. I didn't see it with my own eyes." I am not willing to die for that regicide beast. I have not yet completed the task that the late emperor entrusted to me. Even if I die, I have to fulfill the late emperor's instructions before I dare to die."
Wen Zhouji thrust the test report he was holding into Zhang Guangbai's hand and said through gritted teeth: "Take it and publish it together with what His Highness gave you earlier. It must be seen by everyone in the empire. Who is that regicide beast Xiao Junchen?"
Even though Mr. Wen was quite old, he was still very strong. The force of the gag made Zhang Guangbai stumble and almost sit on the ground.
However, Zhang Guangbai managed to hold his own. He hugged the test report that was handed over to him as if he was holding his own lifeblood. He nodded repeatedly with a pale face and said: "This is natural. I will do it immediately." Go publish.”
Zhang Guangbai was probably frightened by the evidence that Xiao Tingyun brought out. He couldn't turn his head for a while. He grabbed something and was about to turn around and leave. However, he was stopped by Xiao Tingyun after he took two steps. .
Zhang Guangbai looked back in confusion, and Xiao Tingyun burst into laughter for a moment, reminding him: "Master Zhang, you want to publish more than this."
Zhang Guangbai looked even more confused, thinking what else?
Seeing that he was really confused, Xiao Tingyun continued to remind: "The two Abyssal tribes who appeared in the Queen's Palace yesterday, and the dozen or so Abyssal tribes who were shot dead in the city yesterday afternoon will be announced together. Regarding the matters concerning the Abyssal Tribe, let Lu Zhan handle it with you, and he will tell you what to do."
Zhang Guangbai then slapped his forehead, remembering that this was not the only thing that happened yesterday, there was also the collusion between the Queen and the Abyss Clan.
But Lu Zhan chuckled, and without waiting for Xiao Tingyun to say anything else, he directly hugged Zhang Guangbai, pulled him out with a smile, and said as he walked: "Oh, Mr. Zhang, don't worry, I will take you there first. Let’s take a look at the Abyssal Tribes who were killed in the city yesterday, and let’s discuss the following matters in detail.”
Lu Zhan was tall and tall, with long legs. Zhang Guangbai was dragged by him and had to walk two steps quickly before he could catch up with him, so it was very difficult for him to walk.
The two of them walked away in confusion, but other people in the palace were still digesting what they saw today. No matter whether they had digested it completely or not, everyone was united and united, whether it was Xiao Junchen poisoning the late emperor or not. The stone hammer, or the Queen's collusion with the Abyss clan, no one can excuse them anymore. Even the former Emperor's Party, the Prince's Party, and the hidden Queen's Party all turned against each other at this moment.
These people can work for their own interests, but they still have a bottom line, and that bottom line is that they must not treason.
As Long Jiu said, human beings are the most complex creatures. For their own benefit, they can fight to death with others, and even kill their loved ones without blinking an eye, but they can also When dealing with foreign races, put aside all prejudices and grudges, and then join forces to deal with the outside world.
No matter which camp they stand in to fight to the death, but the prerequisite is that they are all from the same race. If they are from a different race, they will turn against each other in a minute and unanimously turn to the outside world. We can fight among ourselves, even if everyone is killed in the fight. Then foreigners will never be allowed to interfere.
Collaborating with the Abyssal Clan is not only treason, but also betrayal of the entire human race. This alone has already crossed their bottom line.
