Recently, the Xu rebels have hyped up the defeat of Li Yi and Chang Kuo in the south of the Yangtze River, and insisted that the Ming Dynasty was exhausted, and threatened to attack the Beijing Division in the near future, so that the Ming Dynasty would return to power to the Li prince.

There are more and more responders, in addition to the bureaucratic gentry who are already dissatisfied with the emperor after the Ming Dynasty, there are also selfish forces from all sides secretly adding fuel to the fire.

In addition, the Xu rebels were forcibly recruited everywhere, and it was only a few months since the incident started, and now there are more than 100,000 soldiers, and the power has grown rapidly.

The people of the government and the opposition are uneasy.

On this day, the Emperor of the Holy Book discussed countermeasures with hundreds of officials to quell the rebellion, and some people wantonly impeached Li Yi, believing that the unfavorable progress of the battle was due to Li Yi's useless military ability, and the commander should be changed immediately.

There are also people who oppose it, believing that Yi Marshal is not conducive to the morale of the army during the war.

Many other officials proposed that the kings and all parties should be mobilized to fight against the rebels.

This proposal was also refuted, and the princes of all walks of life may not have dissenting intentions, and ordered them to send troops, or they were given the opportunity to strengthen their own power by crusading against the rebellious army, and they were afraid that they would be in trouble raising tigers.

In the midst of the dispute, the Emperor of the Holy Book did not express his position for the time being, until Sun Yuan, the chief minister of the left, came out of the ranks, and said, "Your Excellency's law can only suspend the danger of appearance——"

He stood in front of the hundred officials, and raised his eyes slightly to look at the empress sitting on the dragon chair: "And the minister has a law, which can forever prevent future troubles, completely quell this battle, and make all parties come to their hearts, but I don't know if the saint is willing to do it?"

"As long as the danger of Dasheng can be solved, no matter what the law, as the king, I should obey the advice."

The eldest grandson Yuan bowed slightly, and his voice was suddenly forceful: "That minister will be brave and ask the saint to return to the crown prince Li Zhi!"

Above the golden hall, all the voices suddenly dispersed, and only the silent sense of fear and vigilance spread rapidly.

The crown prince Li Zhi's face was shocked, and he looked at the left minister in disbelief.

"It must be known that the name of the Xu rebels' rebellion is to make the saint return to power, and the reason why it can gather more than 100,000 people is precisely because of this, which shows where the hearts of the people in the world are!"

Changsun Yuan's voice clearly came into everyone's ears: "If the saint is willing to return to power, the rebellious army will naturally lose the hearts of the people, and there will be no foundation for the foothold, and the world will return to the heart, then the Li family will be safe!"

"The minister has finished speaking, I don't know if the saint is willing to worry about the people of Dasheng and retire to the throne of the emperor?"

He was quite polite in his words, and did not explicitly point out that the Ming Hou was the root cause of the disaster, and only forced him to abdicate in the tone of admonition.

And in the eyes of Changsun Yuan, he is willing to respect the Empress Ming as the emperor, not the queen mother, and it can be regarded as giving the other party enough dignity, which is the biggest buffer compromise.

The officials of the Son of Heaven faction have changed color, and some people want to come out, but Wei Shuyi is hindered.

On the dragon chair, the empress heard the words, and was not shocked or angry.

"If this move can save the Li family from fire and water, I will not hesitate, and I can perform the Zen ceremony on this hall today——"

The empress raised her hand, untied the crown of the Son of Heaven, handed it to the chamberlain, and ordered it to be handed over to the crown prince.

The hundred officials were shocked, and some courtiers came out of the ranks and knelt down, exclaiming in horror: "Your Majesty!"

The Emperor of the Holy Book turned his head slightly, looked at the prince, and his voice was not happy or angry: "It's just that since I am worried about the stability of the Dasheng country, I still want to ask the prince whether he thinks he has the ability to govern the country, and if so, I can be at ease."

The chamberlain had already bowed his head and came to the crown with his crown in his hand.

The chamberlain's hand trembled, and the beads on the crown shook with it, but the prince trembled even more.

Changsun Yuan looked over and said in a fixed voice, "Your Highness is thirteen years old, it's time to take on the heavy responsibility of the Li family!"

Seeing that the prince was still hesitating, and cold sweat was rolling down his face, the eldest grandson Yuan knelt down with his robe, raised his hand and said, "Minister, Sun Yuan, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to inherit the unification and focus on the overall situation!"

At this juncture, the time has come, and immediately many officials knelt down in agreement, shouting one after another: "Ministers, please ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to inherit the throne!"

The crown was removed, and the white hair bun was displayed in front of the hundred officials, and the Holy Book Emperor sat still and did not move, only quietly looking at the crown prince who was pushed high by Changsun Yuan and others at this moment.

The prince plucked up his courage and raised his eyes to look at the dragon chair on the imperial steps.

However, he did not have time to imagine what it would be like when he sat on that dragon chair, so he was in the same holy book

The emperor's momentary gaze was overwhelmed by instinctive fear.

The prince trembled and knelt down: "The son has no ability to govern, please retract this statement!"

Changsun Yuan's voice sank: "Your Highness!"

The prince bowed his head and said in a trembling voice, "Gentlemen...... I'm still young, and I can't afford to take on the big responsibilities ......!"

A thirteen-year-old child, a cry of fear already appeared in his voice.

The eldest grandson was both bitter and hateful.

At this time, it is the best opportunity to force Ming to abdicate, and his eldest grandson and the ministers have admonished each other with their lives, but they can't help this cowardly prince!

This is the prince of the country who was "cultivated" by the Ming Dynasty!

The ministers wanted to persuade him again, but the prince had already broken his forehead, and pleaded and cried: "I beg the saint to take back this order!"

The Holy Book Emperor sighed lightly, and the tense chamberlain understood, holding the crown and returning to the royal steps.

At the signal of the Holy Emperor, the chamberlain placed the crown lightly on the dragon eucalyptus.

She looked at the eldest grandson Yuan and the others who were kneeling there: "The prince refuses like this, how can I trust the great task with peace of mind?"

"In this case, I would like to ask Lord Eldest Sun, at this time of turmoil, do you have the intention to coerce the ignorant young emperor to abdicate in this way?"

The emperor with gray hair brushed his sleeves, and his tone suddenly became solemn.

The eldest grandson raised his head: "The ministers are loyal to the Li family, and they never have any dissent!"

At this point, his face has been torn, and there is no need to hide it: "It is a saint who claimed to be the temporary ruler of the dynasty back then, but he refused to return power to the Li family, and it is precisely because of such perverse and retrograde behavior that he has caused the disaster of today!" We are worthy of heaven and earth, worthy of the emperor, worthy of the people of the country, let me ask what is wrong!"

"What a mistake!" The Emperor of the Holy Book asked in a fixed voice, "At the present calamity, it is still a great danger to change the commander in battle, let alone change the throne! Now there are not only internal worries, but also foreign troubles, the eldest grandson at this time ordered me to abdicate, and the childish son ascended the throne, where is the safety of Dasheng placed? Zhu Qing is really right, is it really deserved!"

"And whether the disaster of the Xu rebels is my fault, or the result of the combination of the inside and the outside, the eldest grandson should know better than me!"

Changsun Yuan's face changed, and he opened his mouth to speak, but he saw an official step out of the queue and said, "...... The Xu rebels threatened to attack the Beijing division in a few days, and there must be an internal response in the court! Please also ask the saint to investigate thoroughly!"

Soon, the echoes came out one by one.

"That's right, there are many suspicious points about the robbery of grain and grass, and there must be a female cadre who leaked the secret of grain and grass transportation to the Xu rebels early!"

"As everyone knows, Xu Zhengye's subordinate subordinate Xue Ren is the cousin of the eldest grandson's wife, and if the other party gets into trouble, he will definitely try his best to win over the courtiers, and the eldest grandson is in a high position, how can the other party have no action? Therefore, if it is said that the eldest grandson did not know about the Xu family's rebellion in advance, it is difficult for the minister to believe it!"

"That anti-thief Luo Guan Lin used to be the imperial historian in the court, and he also had a close relationship with the eldest grandson!"

"Ministers, please thoroughly investigate whether the Changsun clan is colluding with the rebel army, so as to purge the Qing Dynasty!"

Emperor Sacred Records immediately ordered Si Gongtai and the forbidden army to search the Changsun Mansion, and soon found evidence of secret letters.

Many other courtiers claimed that "Changsun Yuan had long been anti-minded".

"There is no excuse for the sin you want to add!" Changsun Yuan sneered: "Those with the surname Ming have repeatedly planted false accusations, how can they be tired!"

This remark is sarcastic that he was framed by the Empress Ming, and it also refers to the previous Ming family's act of framing Chang Jialangjun.

Therefore, the other party has secretly laid out this game, just waiting for today.

I am afraid that this bureau has already been laid out when Ming Hou decided to deal with Ming Jin.

Pushing the boat down the river first to show his shame, it seems that the righteous annihilation of relatives is the upper hand, but in fact, he has already made up his mind to take the opportunity to get rid of his eldest grandson in one fell swoop!

The eldest grandson stood up tremblingly, his eyes sad and angry: "...... My eldest grandson has been loyal to the Li family for more than a hundred years, and is destined to prosper and decline with the Li family! Now I want to watch this country die at the hands of a woman with a foreign surname!"

The Holy Emperor closed his eyes, and he was also distressed: "Someone is coming, and the anti-thief Changsun Yuan will be sent to the prison pending trial."

Some ministers shouted "No", desire

Stop the Praetorian Army.

Looking at those who were still using the public to put pressure on her, the Holy Book Emperor did not hesitate for a moment: "Anyone who obstructs it will be regarded as a fellow party of the Xu Clan's rebellious army, and they will be punished together!"

Since she was determined to get rid of the eldest grandson, she was ready to break her arm.

There were still people who did not retreat, and the forbidden army entered the temple with swords and escorted all the people away.

There were countless curses and curses, and it was not until all those voices disappeared that the Holy Book Emperor lowered his eyes and slowly sat back down in the dragon chair.

Looking at the list of hundreds of officials in the hall, it can be seen that there are many important positions vacant.

These officials, headed by Changsun Yuan, either held important positions or were the heads of a large clan, and their interests were closely linked to each other, and killing them was like pulling out poisonous sores or destroying themselves.

That's why she didn't dare to do anything to these people.

Vacant positions need to be filled by those who can be matched so that order does not collapse, and the discontent, anger, and rebellion caused by this move also need to be quelled......

These are all big problems, and no matter how you do them, you will leave endless consequences.

But today, the relationship between the Changsun clan and her is a life-and-death situation, she needs to kill the Changsun clan to temporarily quell the rebellion of the government and the opposition, and she also needs to kill the Changsun clan to deter the Xu clan's rebellious army.

She had no choice but to strike first.

Overnight, the eldest grandson clan was put in prison, and those involved in it were all removed from office and imprisoned.

The empress's move was like a storm, and for a while, the entire court was shrouded in bloody rain.

In the early morning, Chang Sui Ning stood under the porch, watching a dead leaf crawling with frost falling in the morning light.

The person who escorted the grain and grass in the Chang family has been away from Beijing for a few days, and she has not left Beijing together, so naturally it is not that she doesn't want to, but that she can't.

Although this matter was approved by the Ministry of Households, it was impossible for the empress not to know about it, and if she was also among the escorts of grain and grass, it would be impossible for this trip to be approved.

Even if the empress is busy with the affairs of the court, it is impossible to watch her and her brother go out of Beijing with everyone to find her father, this move is too suspicious and too eye-catching.

Rather than arousing the empress's suspicion and not being able to leave, the best way is, of course, to let the Chang family escort the grain and grass go farther first, and then she will take her brother out of Beijing alone to "seek medical treatment".

This time, the escort of grain and grass was the responsibility of Chang Kuo's former veterans, and the people who should have left were almost gone, and the rest were mostly official slaves.

The people and money were taken away, and it was much easier for her and her brother to leave again.

"Ning Ning, look!"

Chang Sui'an, who was supported by the sword boy in the courtyard, suddenly called out to her and smiled at her: "I can already walk half a circle today!"

Chang Suining also smiled and nodded with him.

The medical officer sent by the palace to treat Chang Sui's wounds, and several attendants who would come to "visit" every day were also full of smiles: "...... Chang Jia Langjun recovered so quickly, he thought that he would be able to recuperate his muscles and bones in less than 100 days, and his actions would be as usual!"

Chang Sui Ning smiled: "I hope so."

She then proposed to Chang Sui'an: "Brother can already move around, then follow me to Dayun Temple tomorrow to make a vow, Brother is not in a hurry, let's stay in the temple for a few days."

Chang Suian nodded knowingly: "Okay!"

Hearing this, the medical officer explained some matters that needed attention.

When several chamberlains returned to the palace, they reported the matter to the Holy Emperor.

The Emperor of the Holy Book confessed: "Go to the Great Cloud Temple to spread the word that Chang Jia Langjun is injured, so the monks in the temple will take more care of him."

Although the abbot of the temple is endless, many monks are her eyes and ears, and in addition to taking care of her, they can also pay attention to the every move of the Chang family brothers and sisters in the temple.

But because of this, the Holy Emperor subconsciously never really felt that Chang Sui Ning would choose to use this to fulfill his vows.

Hearing that the Chang family wanted to escort the army of money and food, she thought for a moment that the girl would take this opportunity to leave Beijing, but this was not the case.

In this way, she agreed to let the household department approve the matter, and at the same time let off a little guard.

Moreover, the political facts have been busy and urgent recently, and her attention has been occupied, for example, except for liquidation

In addition to the suppression of the Sun clan, there was a secret report from the Western Regions to enter Beijing recently, saying that the greater the expansion of Tibet, the smaller the border countries would either be annexed or surrendered to Tibet.

Obviously, Tubo's appetite is not limited to this, and it has recently invaded the neighboring state of Dasheng Tuguhun.

It was late at night, and the Holy Book Emperor hid the tiredness in his eyes, which made people declare Mingluo.

Minlo arrived soon.

Since the incident of the Confucian Temple, she has not been able to enter the Manna Hall to serve again.

She knew the reason, one of them was because she was a member of the Ming family, and Ming Jin made such a big mistake, and at such a juncture, she would always be with the emperor to cause unnecessary criticism.

Now the eldest grandson has been imprisoned...... Is my aunt going to reuse her?

It's a pity that she knows in her heart that she hasn't seen the holy face for many days, not only because she is a member of the Ming family, but also because of the look that Chang Shi looked at her when he mentioned that Chang Sui Ning was a disaster star in the Confucian Temple that day......

How could my aunt not have doubts?

Therefore, rather than being reused, Ming Luo prefers that this is the emperor who has finally temporarily quelled the troubles in the court and has been able to spare time to ask her for guilt and deal with her......

Should she deny it to death, or should she find another excuse and ask the saint for a light punishment?

Mingluo imagined many punishments that would fall on her, but he never imagined that what awaited her would be a decree of conferral.

As she bowed and fell on her knees, she heard the attendant read in a loud voice, "...... Mingluo, the daughter of the Yingguo Mansion, has been driving in the palace since she was a child, has been with me for many years, has been taught by me, is noble and cautious, Rou Jiaweize, wise and talented, has the ability to participate in politics, and also has the merit of sharing worries for me.

Mingluo was stunned.

Instead of punishing her, her aunt even made her a princess...... Why is that?!
