Chapter 105: Cleanup
Shen Tianao's figure staggered when he left, his mind was a little foggy, as if he remembered some vague things, but it seemed to be very far away from him, as if it only appeared in a dream. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Since the incident, Long Yuting and Long Ziqi have never appeared in the court again, and the situation has been firmly grasped by the vassal kings.
The surrounding ministers all looked at him silently, their eyes moved to the jade seal, and a few of them were a little bolder and asked, "King Anqing, that is something that His Majesty and the regent can only bang on, how did it get to you?" ”
Shen Tianao put the jade seal on the table, and he walked up to the minister with a smile: "Lord Han, the regent interferes in His Majesty's court affairs, and we are here to help His Highness." ”
Han Shangshu snorted coldly, he pointed at the tip of Shen Tianao's nose and said: "You are the chaotic ministers and thieves, the old man's eyes are not cloudy, you can tell the true from the false, the regent has been assisting Your Majesty conscientiously all these years, which is the chaotic minister and thief you are talking about." ”
Shen Tianao restrained his smile, his face turned pale, he waved his big hand, and ordered the guards below: "Lord Han spoke wildly and put him in the prison. ”
The guards were Shen Tianao's personal guards, seeing that his master was insulted by an old minister like this, he didn't take him lightly, and dragged Lord Han down, Lord Han wanted to get rid of the shackles of the guards, and scolded Shen Tianao while being dragged away: "King Anqing, you despicable villain can't die well, use this method to deal with the regent and take away His Majesty's throne, do you think everyone will obey you?" ”
After Lord Han was taken out of the main hall, several other ministers stood up again, and they either interceded for Lord Han or criticized the actions of the vassal kings.
"Lord Han, he just said the wrong thing for a while, and I ask King Anqing to forgive me." One of the ministers said.
Another minister tugged at his robe and said, "What can I say to the rebellious ministers and thieves, they are just a group of people who want to take away His Majesty's throne." ”
Shen Tianao watched them quietly, waiting for them to finish speaking, and then he said slowly: "Since everything is finished, we all go to the heavenly prison to accompany Lord Han, I think he is also lonely in it alone, and he is thinking about you." ”
These ministers were also dragged down by the guards, and the rest of the ministers were silent, at this time Liu Ying quickly walked from outside the hall, he knelt on one knee and said to Shen Tianao: "Lord Qiqi, the soldiers and horses have gathered in Liangdu, just wait for the prince's orders." ”
"Let them surround the Regent's Palace, and no one in the palace is allowed to go out." Shen Tianao instructed Liu Ying.
"Yes, lord." Liu Ying immediately responded to Shen Tianao's orders, he turned around and hurriedly walked out.
The remaining ministers in the hall saw that the royal family was gone, and the elite soldiers and horses of the imperial court failed to come back to save them, but they were afraid that the world was about to change their masters, and if they did not adapt to the situation, they were afraid that they would end up like Lord Han and them, so they fell to the side of King Anqing.
"Lord, fortunately, you came in time, the regent has been bullying the young master, and the ministers dare not speak out, but fortunately, the vassal kings came with soldiers and horses to drive the regent out of the court."
"Yes, yes." Another minister also chimed in, "Fortunately, King Anqing came in time, otherwise Your Majesty wouldn't know what it would look like to be bullied." ”
Shen Tianao laughed a few times at everyone: "You are still the ones who know the times as Junjie, and I and the rest of the vassal kings will not treat you badly." ”
The ministers also breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the expressions of the vassal kings, they may be out of danger now, but what to do in the future is a matter for the future.
Shen Tianao specially went to the heavenly prison to visit the imprisoned ministers, watching them curled up in the dark and damp cells, his heart couldn't help but feel a little proud, he said in a mocking tone: "Why do you people go against me, since you want to seek death, I can't blame me." ”
"King Anqing, if you want to kill or chop it, it's up to you, just let our family go." Master Han said as he grabbed the wooden fence with both hands.
Shen Tianao walked into him, wrenched his fingers one by one and said, "You didn't understand the seriousness of this matter earlier, but unfortunately it's too late now, since you like this prison, just continue to stay, I will take good care of your family." ”
His voice sounded particularly strange in the gloomy cell, Lord Han kept trembling, he was so angry and anxious that he fell to the ground with his eyes rolled, and the rest of the ministers walked over to help him up.
"Shen Tianao, don't be so arrogant, General Heri led the soldiers and horses into Liangdu, I'll see how you end."
"Then we'll see." Shen Tianao glanced at them and said, he walked to the door of the prison and suddenly remembered something, turned back to the jailer and said, "These ministers are all powerful people in the court, and they all serve me well." ”
"Yes, lord." The jailers walked over with their whips, and in a few moments there were screams and cries for help from the prison.
Shen Tianao returned to the palace and asked Liu Ying, and he asked, "Where did General Wang's men go?" ”
Liu Ying replied to him: "Lord Wang, I didn't find General Wang's men, after they evacuated from Chong'an Town, they suddenly disappeared without a trace, and my subordinates also felt strange, I sent someone to check again, but there was no result." ”
"Oh?" Shen Tianao couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, after all, it was a big trouble for him to have so many soldiers and horses disappear out of thin air, but since they disappeared, it means that they had been prepared for a long time, that is, so that they could not find their traces.
Liu Ying cautiously asked him for instructions and said, "Lord Wang, do you want your subordinates to continue to send people to investigate the matter of General Wang's people?" ”
Shen Tianao pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "There is no need for the time being, let's stabilize the situation in the imperial court first, and then investigate this matter after sorting out these ministers and dealing with His Majesty and the regent." ”
Liu Ying waved his hands and said, "My subordinates must obey the orders of the prince." ”
After saying that, his figure disappeared from Shen Tianao's sight, and at the same time, the ministers who opposed the vassal kings in everything were either demoted or exiled, and everyone was forced by the power of the vassal kings, and they dared not speak out.
Long Yuting knew that the court had undergone such a great change, and he was all saddened, and he muttered more than once: "I killed them all, it's all my fault." ”
Long Ziqi persuaded on the side: "Uncle Huang, how can you blame this, if General Wang didn't go to Chong'an Town, I'm afraid that the border areas have been taken by the Qiang people, and our life is as unstable as we are. ”
For Long Ziqi's comfort, Long Yuting felt helpless, and he said guiltily: "Your Majesty, we can only endure for the time being, and we still need to wait for the opportunity." (To be continued.) )
