Xiao Daoling's expression was calm and he said lightly: "How is this new emperor similar to the previous emperors?" ”

"This son is a man who is very suspicious, and has no room for sand in his eyes. At such a juncture, the Xiao family also encouraged local state officials to report a joint petition to ask for forgiveness for the Xiao family. What happens when I wait? ”

"Zhu Jiu Clan!"

Xiao Changgong didn't think about it, and blurted out the answer.

"That's right! If we anger that emperor at such a juncture, we will only end up with the Nine Clans! But if my Xiao family does the opposite, there may be a glimmer of life. ”

"My Xiao family can obediently give up power to him, and he naturally has to know the current affairs and let the Xiao family go."

Xiao Daoling's expression was calm and he spoke lightly.

Such major events have been staged countless times in the history of the Xiao family.

The reason why the Xiao family has survived so far is not only because of the supreme power that can reach the sky, but also because of the scrutiny of the emperor.

"But in this way, the Xiao family is afraid that it will decline!"

Xiao Longbow was extremely distressed.

The Xiao family has been working hard for decades in order to seize imperial power, and they never thought that they would end up like this.

"Decline? As long as the Xiao family is still there, the Xiao family will never decline. ”

Xiao Daoling sneered and said proudly.

"Alright, that's it. No matter what happens tomorrow, you can't let anyone go to the East Palace. This matter, the Xiao family has ended here. ”

Xiao Daoling came and aggravated his tone again, admonishing all the Xiao family relatives present.

Everyone has their own thoughts, but in the face of Xiao Daoling, who has been in charge of the Xiao family for decades, he can only silently obey orders.

Early the next morning, Xu Jing got up early and sat in the Xi Zheng Hall to correct the folds.

"Your Majesty, there are several officials outside the door who want to see Your Majesty. Judging from the minions, it seems that those few will not stop until they see His Majesty. ”

As soon as the sky was brightened, Gonggong Cao hurriedly came to Xu Jing and whispered in his ear.

As Xu Jing expected, there were indeed many officials who wanted to see Xu Jing today.

"No, let them wait outside."

Xu Jing waved his hand, completely ignoring these officials.

"Your Majesty, the captain asks to see you."

It didn't take long for Gonggong Cao to come again with news.

"Situ Zhao? No, let him go back and wait for news. Trying to rebel? What a daring! ”

Xu Jing sneered, still not planning to see anyone.

Xu Jing knew in his heart that these people who couldn't hold their breath and came to see him were all small characters who couldn't get on the stage.

Gonggong Cao knew this in his heart, and walked out of the East Palace quickly and said coldly to the people gathered outside the door: "Your Excellency, you don't have to wait. Your Majesty's decree is to let you go back and wait. ”

After speaking, Gonggong Cao quickly turned around and left, not giving this group of officials a chance to curry favor at all.

"Lord Situ, what can I do? What does this mean exactly, Your Majesty? ”

The people present have a lot to do with this matter, if they sit and wait for Xu Jing's holy decree, isn't they waiting to be connected to the nine clans?

Each of them was so anxious that they could only pin their hopes on Situ Zhao, who had the highest official position and had survived three dynasties.

"For the sake of now, only one person can solve this matter. Let's go, I'll go to the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”

Situ Zhao is also anxious now, the deputy commander who almost killed Xu Jing is his own grandson!

He was also involved, and if His Majesty was determined to be held responsible, the Situ family would not be able to escape the involvement.

Now, there is only one person who has not appeared here, and that is Prime Minister Xiao Daoling!

"That's right! That Xiao Jiasheng is the mastermind, and the Xiao Mansion is also deeply involved, and the prime minister may have a way. ”

When everyone heard Situ Zhao's words, their eyes lit up and glowed again.

In their eyes, Xiao Daoling is an existence that is enough to confront Xu Jing.

With a direction, this group of officials hurriedly got into their own carriage and went straight to Xiao's mansion.

Not long after, all kinds of carriages were piled up in front of the Xiao Mansion.

These carriages are all owned by high-ranking officials above the fourth rank of the DPRK?

"Master, there are several officials outside the door who have asked to see you."

Looking at so many very powerful people outside the door, the porter was equally frightened.

In the past, only when the prime minister passed his birthday, there would be so many big people gathered.

Suddenly, a bunch of big officials came together, and for fear of being sluggish, they could only walk quickly into the front hall to inform Xiao Daoling.

"Let them go back."

Xiao Daoling's face was expressionless, and he took a sip of tea and said lightly.

"However, among those people is Master Situ."

The porter was apprehensive and said cautiously.

"No, even if the king of heaven is here, he won't see it!"

Xiao Daoling did not hesitate to open his mouth and drink low.

"Yes, I'll let them go."

The porter was frightened by Xiao Daoling's low shout, and nodded again and again and walked quickly to the gate of the Xiao Mansion.

"What did Master Xiao say?"

Seeing the porter walk out, everyone looked at him with eager eyes and asked.

"I'm sorry, gentlemen. The lord told you to just go back and wait for news. ”

The porter said cautiously.

"How is that possible! Don't see Lord Xiao either? It's really weird. ”

For a while, hundreds of officials were noisy and discussed.

They couldn't figure out why Xiao Daoling didn't want to see them, let alone contribute to this matter.

It stands to reason that the one who was most implicated this time was the Xiao family!

"Let's go, I'll go ahead and ask for Your Majesty. I don't believe it, Your Majesty can really be iron-hearted and don't see me! ”

Situ Zhao seemed to be angry, brushed his sleeves and left.

Many officials, you look at me, I look at you, no one can do anything.

Some people left and didn't plan to lose face again, while others were worried that the family would be implicated by this and could only continue to follow Situ Zhao to the East Palace to ask for a meeting.

It wasn't until late at night that Xu Jing walked out of the Xi Zheng Hall slowly: "How? Are those officials still waiting outside? ”

"I went halfway through and when I came back, there was only half left. I'm still waiting outside. ”

Gonggong Cao cautiously told the process 1510.

"Interesting, it seems that Xiaofu is determined not to make a fuss about this matter."

Xu Jing smiled faintly, surprised by Xiao Daoling's choice.

He couldn't believe that a person who was clearly close to the peak of power could stay sober at this moment, and would rather give up power to protect the Xiao family.

"Then Your Majesty, do you still want to see those people?"

Gonggong Cao is well versed in these power struggles, but he must not show the slightest in front of Xu Jing.

Once too much desire is exposed, he is not far from death.

"No, they like to take it, so let them stay. However, there will be enough people to guard it tonight. You can't let people rob the prison! ”

Xu Jing then spoke coldly.

"Your Majesty, do you mean...... understood, the minister arranged for more than 1,000 households to guard the edict day and night. ”

Gonggong Cao understood it, nodded again and again.

"Not only that, send the order to the forbidden army barracks, and let Zhenting take all the generals to guard it together. I'm going to get them all out at once! ”

Xu Jing's expression was cold, and his voice was like thunder.

Today's Xu Jing is so similar to the rumored founding emperor of Daqian, he is decisive in killing and thinking like a needle!
