Qin Rushuang slept all afternoon and all night. When she woke up again, the sound of birdsong in the morning could already be heard in her ears.
Seeing that she was awake, the little palace maid who was close to her came over and asked: "Princess, are you awake? Are you still feeling unwell?"
Qin Rushuang had just woken up, and her thoughts were still a little confused. When she heard the words of the little palace maid, her expression became clear, and then she remembered the thrilling experience yesterday.
As her thoughts drifted away, memories of yesterday also came one after another.
She still remembered that before he fell into coma, it seemed that Xie Xun rushed in with someone...
Qin Rushuang touched the dry clothes on her body and felt that her body was just a little weak, without any discomfort, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
From this point of view, Xie Xun should have rescued her completely.
Thinking of this, Qin Rushuang paused.
wrong.
If Xie Xun rescued her, then they should have been...
But now she doesn't feel anything in her body. What's going on?
Seeing that Qin Rushuang had been silent in the small palace, with worry on her face, she asked, "Princess, what's wrong with you? If you feel any discomfort, please tell me! I'll ask Dr. Cao to diagnose you."
Qin Rushuang shook her head helplessly.
How should she tell the little palace maid such a thing?
I can't ask her, did anything happen to him after I was rescued by him yesterday? How did the prince interpret it for her?
This is too embarrassing.
Qin Rushuang was in a state of embarrassment. Xie Xun had already returned from the court.
Logically speaking, with Qin Rushuang in such a state, he had no intention of going to court at all, but thinking about the family of Chiang Shilang who was under house arrest, and the second young master Jiang who was captured by him, he had to go to court.
Xie Xun was absolutely furious this time.
This is the angriest time he has been since he came to power, because they have touched their bottom line and they have touched Qin Rushuang.
He can tolerate anything, and he knows that it is normal for dynasties to change, for power to overlap, and for political problems to be encountered;
It is normal for some people in the court to dissatisfy him;
It is only natural that the reform system he wants to implement is frustrated.
So when he encounters these things, he will feel troubled and stressed, but it never makes him angry, because he knows that Da Qi is slowly getting better, and Da Qi will become better and better in the hands of himself and Qin Rushuang.
good.
But they are such bold and daring people!
How dare they!
How dare they touch his most beloved person!
How dare they touch Qin Rushuang?!
This simply touched his bottom line, and even more so his inverse scale!
One can imagine how angry Xie Xun was!
In today's morning court, for the first time, he did not consider the face of any minister or anyone's plea, and executed the Jiang family and his family with thunderous means, especially the second son of Jiang, who received the most severe punishment.
.
Chiang's minister was deprived of his official position and his family was exiled. However, Chiang's second son Xie Xun wanted to be sentenced to Lingchi.
But he knew that Qin Rushuang was not willing to commit more crimes now, so he suppressed his temper and locked the second young master Jiang in the prison, waiting for Qin Rushuang to wake up and ask her what to do.
The ministers who had gone to court earlier were even more frightened when they saw that Xie Xun had no room for mercy this time and directly sentenced Jiang Shilang and his family.
When Xie Xun first came to power, they were also worried, thinking that the prince born as a military general would be a tyrant.
But during this time, they discovered that Xie Xun was not only not a tyrant, but on the contrary, he did not have the shortcomings of previous emperors - arrogance.
Xie Xun is willing to listen to their opinions, and when their opinions are contrary to theirs, he is also willing to respect them and be tolerant;
At least when he first came to power, he did not use cruel methods to purge the courtiers who were dissatisfied with him, which also allowed them to slowly and continuously test Xie Xun's bottom line.
The previous request for Xie Xun to open a harem was actually a game between Xie Xun and his courtiers.
They didn't necessarily want their daughter to enter the harem, they just wanted to see where Xie Xun, the emperor, drew his bottom line?
How far can he tolerate between himself and his courtiers?
Xie Xun chose to use softer methods before.
Such as arranging a marriage for their daughter, or having people spread the good stories between him and the princess in Kyoto. Although these methods are useful, in the eyes of the courtiers, this is also a sign of the emperor's submission.
Because at least Xie Xun did not punish them because of this incident, which also emboldened the courtiers below.
But now what happened to Jiang Shilang's family made them suddenly wake up.
A sleeping lion is still a lion, not a cat that only bluffs and scratches people!
When a lion gets angry, it will kill people!
At the same time, Xie Xun's resolute decision also made them understand the importance of Qin Rushuang in Xie Xun's heart.
If nothing else, they are Xie Xun's courtiers, and they will be punished if they are punished. But look at the prince of the gangster country, he is still imprisoned in the palace!
That’s the prince of a country!
If it is not handled well, it will provoke a dispute between the two countries!
But their prince just shuts him down and arrests him whenever he wants, and he still hasn't given any accurate words yet!
The princess in the post house was even controlled by others and could not even take a step out of the post house. I am afraid that this matter will not be resolved in the end.
…
Not to mention how Xie Xun's actions caused shock in the hearts of the courtiers in the court. After he went down to court, he felt exhausted all over his body.
The second son of the Jiang family had evil intentions towards the princess. This was just a superficial excuse given to the courtiers.
In fact, he tortured Jiang Shilang's family and asked about more serious things.
A small minister of the Ministry of Industry actually colluded with foreign countries, and it was not just a gangster country!
Thinking of the question from Shilang Jiang about other countries interfering in the internal affairs of the gangster country and forcing the gangster country's envoy to arrive in Kyoto in advance...
Xie Xun quickened his pace.
The gangster prince and princess were difficult to deal with. He had to discuss with Qin Rushuang to find a better solution!
Moreover, he has been thinking about Qin Rushuang's body and wonders how she is resting.
Xie Xun returned to the palace in a hurry and saw that Qin Rushuang had woken up and was sitting on the bed as if in a daze.
Xie Xun felt a pain in her heart. Why was Qin Rushuang like this? Is she still afraid? Still thinking about what happened yesterday?
Thinking like this, Xie Xun quickened his pace and walked to the dragon bed, waved away the little palace maid, and suddenly hugged Qin Rushuang.
"I'm sorry." Xie Xun said softly.
Qin Rushuang came back to her senses, and her nose was filled with the cold and murderous aura of Xie Xun.
She patted Xie Xun's shoulder lightly and asked, "What's wrong? Are you suddenly apologizing to me?"
"I'm sorry. It was me who failed to protect you and allowed others to take advantage of it. Also, I arrived too late yesterday and you were frightened. It's my fault..."
Qin Rushuang raised her head from Xie Xun's arms, held Xie Xun's handsome and bright face with both hands, and pressed a gentle kiss on his cheek.
"You don't need to say sorry to me. This matter is not your fault. We are husband and wife. This is not the time to apologize. We have to solve the current matter together."
Xie Xun looked into her eyes and thought: "You mean..."
"Your Majesty must have gotten some clues from Minister Jiang about the chaos in the country, right?"
