Chapter 957: Changes in the Imperial City

When the Shen family returned, the fiery red carpet spread from the gate of the Shen family's mansion to the entrance of the city gate.

The lanterns were full of joy and joy, and the Shen family's convoy transporting goods alone used more than 20 carriages, and standing on the city wall, they couldn't see where the tail of the team was.

Many residents of the capital still remember how embarrassed they were when the Shen family left.

I went out of the city overnight, and I didn't dare to make any movement.

But now when they came back, they did it so beautifully, and they wanted the whole capital to know.

On the second day after the Shen family returned to the mansion in the capital, the once dismissed bachelor Qi family also returned to the capital in a hurry.

Back then, the hated Qi family, the eldest and youngest Qi miner, even called a fox friend the next day to have fun in the kiln in the capital all day.

After the return of these two families, many well-intentioned people have been able to affirm that the emperor Tang Ming may have really had an accident.

Since then, many unkind eyes have been staring at the palace compound.

If it weren't for the rise of the demon clan, I'm afraid that even on the throne, there are many people who want to step forward and sit down.

Even so, many people standing in the palace now have their hearts and minds beginning to move.

"The rise and fall of the palace is always in such a cycle. ”

The veteran Gu Youzi, who has been a guard of the imperial city for many years, does not know how many families he has witnessed the ups and downs of the family, and he sighed like this.

Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's sudden appearance and finally entered the imperial city at a speed that no one could imagine, which was something that no one expected.

And Xuanyuan Xiaoyu's powerful means overwhelmed many old nobles and big forces, and they could only retreat one after another, and even withdraw from the stage of the imperial city, which was even more unpredictable for everyone.

Gu Youzi has also seen the chaos in the capital under the major wealthy families, and has experienced the beauty under the leadership of Xuanyuan Xiaoyu.

But after all, he is just an ordinary person in the capital, even if he has the identity of the imperial city guard, he is not enough to see in front of those big giants.

"I hope the Emperor of the People can survive this, it's difficult for others to meddle in this matter at all. ”

Gu Youzi thought silently in his heart, and even warned his descendants that at this time, they must not talk nonsense in the capital, so as not to cause death.

But he never expected that a few years later, the emperor who really stood at the peak of the Xuanyuan Empire would come back.

It seems that there has been another bloody storm in the recent imperial city. ’

His excitement was difficult to calm down at all.

At this time, Tang Ming and the others had already come to the door of the palace annex hall.

Just as Zhang Chongshan was about to step forward to report, Tang Ming pulled his body back, because in the palace courtyard not far away, there were some noisy sounds.

"Human Emperor, the situation inside and outside the emperor is so chaotic now, in fact, it is all because of Tang Ming. ”

"When Tang Ming was still the emperor, he didn't know how to restrain his edge, offend people everywhere, and even be tough on the outside world, he treated the ministers of the court without showing mercy, and even forced them out of the capital, how could he not make people hold a grudge in their hearts. ”

"Back then, he said he would leave, but now he has not heard from him, and everyone thinks that he is dead, leaving such a big imperial mess, how can we clean it up. ”

Many former important ministers of the court gathered here at this moment and had a heated discussion.

The elderly Li Shangshu spoke in a deep voice, causing many people to nod in agreement.

Xiao Bieli, who was standing beside Xiao Yu, slowly opened his eyes, and said in a low tone, "Li Shangshu, you are also an old minister in the court, everything the emperor did back then, could it be that because of his misfortune, he completely denied it?"

Now that a few years have passed, Xiao Bie's edge has become more and more restrained, and he can't see what his true thoughts are in his heart.

"That's not what he said, when Tang Ming was there, he was the emperor's teacher, and he was loyal to the affairs of the empire, which was his business, but he later said that he would leave, and he didn't take the interests of the empire to heart at all. ”

"This kind of thing, as an emperor of a country, how can you do it!"

Li Shangshu didn't give in for half a step, and said angrily.

Maybe it's because he's old, or maybe he's really too excited, and when he finishes, he keeps coughing in his place.

"Li Shangshu still pays more attention to his body. ”

Xiao Yu, who was on the throne, spoke softly at this moment.

In the face of this old minister, Xiao Yu can't say that it is too exciting, after all, this Li Shangshu was also an old minister who dedicated his life to the country.

Maybe his thoughts are a little extreme, but you can't just be angry with him.

"Hmph, what is Lao Chen's body, if he can save the empire from danger, what does it matter if Lao Chen dies here now? It's just that Tang Ming's actions are really chilling, and now it is even more likely that he will die like this, so that my empire will be completely in danger. ”

Li Shangshu obviously didn't intend to stop, and continued to say indignantly.

"Li Shangshu, whether the emperor is dead or not, now everyone doesn't know, don't make a conclusion too early!"

There were young courtiers who couldn't help but open their mouths and defended Tang Ming.

"Oh, stupid. ”

Li Shangshu shook his head and chuckled, not even interested in saying a word more. Hassle-free

When the young courtier saw this, his face could only turn red with anger, and it was difficult to say anything.

"Alas. ”

Looking at the appearance of the main hall, even Xiao Yu, who was firm-hearted, sighed silently in his heart at this moment.

Today's scene is not the first time it has appeared.

But in the current situation, apart from quarrels, everyone simply can't find a suitable solution.

"Otherwise, let's find a way to get the emperor back, or find some evidence that the emperor is still alive, and we can suppress them. ”

Someone stood in the direction of the corner, carefully opening.

"Why, after so much time, you still refuse to give up?" Li Shangshu said coldly, "Demons are in turmoil all over the place, and there are other empires eyeing the border, you still want to send people to find a dead man?"

"If Tang Ming hadn't died, then he should have appeared a long time ago, how could he never find anyone?"

Li Shangshu's words were very simple, and he also didn't intend to leave any affection for others.

When he said this, many people who still wanted to help Tang Ming speak couldn't help but close their mouths, but the complexion on their faces became more ugly.

There is no way, the current Xuanyuan Empire is really too difficult.

Even if there is a little bit of Tang Ming's news, maybe the situation can be greatly improved.

It's just that after such a long time, they have even become accustomed to bad news, and they don't have much hope that Tang Ming will be alive.

"From the perspective of Weichen, maybe now, we still have a way to work. ”

Chen Shangshu, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.

This middle-aged man in one of the six departments, although he is not as respected as other old ministers, but he also left a deep impression in the hearts of everyone by relying on extraordinary means.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, the eyes of everyone in the hall looked at him.

"Let the emperor bow his head to the Shen family, recognize the status of the first family of the Shen family, and even marry the Shen family. ”

Chen Shangshu said word by word, and spoke in a deep voice.

"It can't be!"

Without waiting for any reaction from the others, Xiao Bieli immediately scolded, "Chen Shangshu, although I know that this plan of yours is also for the good of the empire, once you do this, you may be able to help the empire in a short time, but with the Shen family's style of acting, you may have to cede the empire's land to other forces to beg for mercy." ”

"What's more, do you think that the people of the Shen family will write off all the things of the year so simply?"

"Lord Xiao, your worries are also in my calculations. Chen Shangshu laughed softly, "But if you think about it carefully, is it really the entire empire that has an enmity with the Shen family? ”

Hiss!

When these words were spoken, the entire hall fell silent unconsciously, and many people even gasped, with shocked expressions on their faces.

Chen Shangshu's sentence is really ruthless, not only explaining the reason for the matter, but even to some extent, telling the solution to this crisis.

Arrest all the people who once belonged to Tang Ming's lineage and send them to the Shen family to make amends, maybe everyone else can be saved from the wrath of the Shen family.

"Chen Shangshu, in this way, wouldn't it make everyone in the world laugh at us and others, and even sacrifice the interests of others for their own safety, not to mention that they are all great heroes who have made contributions to the empire. ”

Someone immediately retorted.

The others present couldn't help frowning, obviously unwilling to agree with this plan.

Tang Ming was the emperor back then, but in fact, he didn't interfere too much in the affairs of the court, and paid more attention to the border war.

If all the people in Tang Ming's line are arrested now, doesn't it mean that all the soldiers who once guarded the Xuanyuan Empire will be arrested in the capital?

In this way, the capital will be chaotic.

"Okay, I won't adopt this kind of practice of hurting my own people, if this statement is followed, wouldn't it be that this emperor will also have to ask the Shen family for the guilt?"

Xiao Yu, who was on the throne, spoke in a cold tone.

The invisible human emperor's coercion spread, so that everyone had to bow their heads, and even Chen Shangshu, who had just made a suggestion, hurriedly clenched his fists and retreated.

But looking at the looks of many people present, Chen Shangshu knew in his heart that he was afraid that someone would really start to think like this.

"My emperor, although what Chen Shangshu said just now is a bit excessive, but now the situation is urgent, if you don't want to find a way to come out, the Shen family's private soldiers enter the city, and something will inevitably happen. ”

Li Shangshu shook his head and sighed, and said in a deep voice.

Xiao Yu sat on the throne, her eyes slightly closed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Only Xiao Bieli, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but sigh silently in his heart, where is the emperor thinking about something now, it is clearly because he is too tired these days and wants to rest for a while.

Everyone didn't answer when they saw Xiaoyu, but when she was helpless, they couldn't help but fall into a faint despair.

Is there really no chance of a comeback this time?
