Chapter 224 Shangguan Tianxiao can't have an accident!

Recently, the country's uncle and the country's father-in-law have died one after another, and the prince's party in the court has been hit hard.

In the harem, the queen contracted a strange disease and was tortured to the point of dying.

The prince was also suspected by the emperor because of his private soldiers and was left out in the cold.

The prince was so suppressed that he could not hold his head up and walked with difficulty.

The emperor frowned, could it be that the prince was really framed for raising private soldiers?

At this time, a high-pitched voice came from outside the palace: "Military report! Urgent report from 800 miles away!"

Emergency military reports can be submitted directly to the imperial court without having to go through tedious step-by-step procedures.

"Report! Emergency military information!"

A courier held an envelope in both hands and ran over staggeringly.

The messenger's face was haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked dusty. It looked like he had traveled day and night.

The post envoy ran to the main hall and knelt down with a bang: "Your Majesty, we need to expedite the military report for 800 miles!"

Eunuch Zheng trotted down in a hurry, took the envelope from the emissary's hand with a solemn expression, returned to the imperial court, and watched the emperor open the wax seal on it.

The ancient imperial court had a system for transmitting court documents and military information. There was a post house located some distance from the border to the capital. In addition to providing accommodation and meals for passing officials, the post house was also equipped with horses and messengers.

Urgent military information must be carried out quickly and day and night. If the middleman is tired and lacks horses, the military situation will be delayed, so people and horses must be replaced in the middle.

In order to prevent the leakage of military information, confidentiality measures are in place. Of course, this is a very childish method like wax sealing.

"Nanyun actually sent troops to attack our Dongming border in order to avenge Nanyun Yao'er!"

"Oh! He framed General Shangguan first, and then sent troops to attack him. His intentions are terrible!"

"If something happens to the general at this time, I'm afraid it will disturb the morale of the army and weaken the fighting spirit of the soldiers."



The military attaches spoke up one after another, begging for Shangguan Tianxiao to be released, and their expressions of indignation were much more sincere than before.

In fact, most people were worried that if the border defenders were unable to hold on and asked for support from the imperial army, without Shangguan Tianxiao, they would be the ones leading the expedition.

Going to the border means military success, but it also means failure and death.

The country of Nanyun is rich and powerful, and is good at using poison and formations, so it is not difficult to deal with.

At this time, nothing can happen to Shangguan Tianxiao!

Some people also insisted: Shangguan Tianxiao was not related to Nan Yun at first, so he cannot be released at this time, and must be interrogated strictly.

The emperor's head was pounding because of their quarrel. He knew very well what these ministers were thinking.

The anger in his heart was overwhelming. Could it be that just one Shangguan Tianxiao in his court could win the battle?

He said in a deep voice: "Shangguan Tianxiao's matter will be discussed later. Who is willing to lead troops to support the southern border?"

The military attaches all bowed their heads, and no one took the initiative to ask for military leave.

They were saddened by the death of Shangguan Tianxiao. They won and aroused the emperor's suspicion. However, they lost and were dealt with by military law.

If nothing good comes of it, it's better to maintain the status quo and muddle along.

The emperor's eyes were gloomy, his sharp eyes swept over the officials who were silent for a moment, and he had the urge to pull them all out and behead them.

However, he could not do things without his ministers, so he had to suppress his anger.

He asked Gu Lingran in a deep voice: "Gu Aiqing, there was a war at the Nanyun border, why didn't the Jin Yiwei notice it?"

Jin Yiwei's eyes are spread throughout the government and the public. How come there is no news about such a big matter?

Gu Lingran frowned, walked out of the queue and knelt down and said: "To report to the emperor, there have been some small groups of troops harassing our border in Dongming, but they were easily dealt with by the border defenders. There has been no news of a large army approaching the border."

Emperor Dongming looked at the military report again and said, "Immediately send Jin Yi to verify whether this matter is true!"

"Yes!" Gu Lingran turned around and left the hall, going to make arrangements himself.

The emperor was suspicious of his temper and felt that the military report was too coincidental. He had not come earlier and would have come later, but he came at this time without any warning.

The emperor also ordered the Ministry of War to start collecting grain, grass and weapons, and ordered the camp on the outskirts of the city to start preparing troops.

Just wait for the person from Jinyiwei who went to inquire about the news to come back before making a decision.

As for Shangguan Tianxiao, the emperor didn’t mention it!

After hearing the news, Shangguan Ruoli slapped the soft table hard and said, "This old fox!"

Rejoice was a little discouraged, "If the emperor knows that the military report is false, General Shangguan may not be safe."

Shangguan Ruoli was also a little dejected. No matter how hard she tried, she could not control the situation at the border.

Even if Gu Lingran was concerned about his wife's safety, he could not conceal the military situation on the border.

Zhui Feng discovered this situation in the dark and couldn't bear it. He immediately appeared in front of Shangguan Ruoli and said, "Princess, there is no need to be anxious about this. The military report is true."

"What? Really?" Shangguan Ruoli was puzzled.

Zhui Feng said: "My prince has long been aware that the emperor has the power to collect troops, and he secretly planned it early. Now, it's just a piece of information and it's done."

Shangguan Ruoli's mind flashed back to Nanyun Lengyue, who was dressed in a sexy red dress. He and Dongming Ziyu had never been clear about each other, and they even visited a brothel together.

Humph! It seems like there must be something fishy between the two of them.

Shangguan Ruoli stopped worrying about the military reporting issue and started to think wildly.

She was certain that Dongming Ziyu was straight, but that was not necessarily the case with Nanyun Lengyue, a neither-male nor female monster.

However, it is not Shangguan Ruoli's character to put hope in others.

She sent Rejoice to Zhiweizhai, and a mysterious fire broke out in the imperial mausoleum at night. The place where the fire broke out was the mausoleum that the emperor was building.

If it weren't for the fact that a lot of people's sacrifices were spent on the imperial mausoleum and there were many craftsmen inside, Shangguan Ruoli would have blown it up.

Even so, the emperor was very frightened and hurriedly announced the Qintian Prison's calculations.

The Qintian Supervisor was going through some Bagua deductions and watching the stars at night.

Finally, he said: "God is warning me that the emperor has done something that goes against the people's will."

The emperor frowned, "Do you know what it is?"

Supervisor Qin Tian shook his head slightly in a serious manner, "I can't calculate it."

Measuring is nonsense. His function is to observe the celestial phenomena, calculate solar terms, and formulate calendars. He is not a magician!

But a fire in the mausoleum is definitely not a good thing. As for disobeying God's will, the emperor has done a lot, so he can definitely come up with a lot if he thinks about it.

If he had said it out of his mouth, he would have deceived the emperor. One day, the emperor would become angry and think of this, and he would have to kill him.

So, he quickly flattered him and said: "The emperor is the real dragon emperor, and God's warning is also a favor to the emperor."

Otherwise, it would be a punishment.

The emperor dismissed Qin Tian Jian Zheng, frowning and thinking, thinking about it, the biggest thing recently is to punish Shangguan Tianxiao.

Everything else has more or less evidence of guilt, but Shangguan Tianxiao is the only one who is unfounded.

Jin Yiwei had his own way of delivering news, and he got the news from the southern border in two days.

Nanyun's army is approaching, and they have fought several times!

On the fifth day after Shangguan Tianxiao was imprisoned, he was finally released.

Shangguan Ruoli thought that Shangguan Tianxiao would not be punished for threatening Gu Lingran, but when she saw Shangguan Tianxiao's appearance, she became angry.
