"Father! Although Ran Ran is a woman, she has helped my son out of danger many times before. This time, without Ran Ran, my son would not have been able to sneak into the village to find out what happened."
The implication is that Wen Ranran is not an outsider.
Wen Ranran looked at Xia Lishuang and felt a little moved.
Since ancient times, it has been an unwritten rule in all dynasties that women are not allowed to participate in politics.
Although Rongguo now implements the system of female officials in the harem, in the final analysis, the status of women is still low.
At this moment, Xia Lishuang held her hand and firmly told his father that she was not an outsider.
Wen Ranran was moved in her heart and squeezed Xia Lishuang's palm.
The emperor was stunned, and his eyes fell on Wen Ranran again.
The woman is delicate and smart, her fox eyes are not shy like ordinary women, and her gaze is magnanimous when she sees the holy face.
The emperor suddenly remembered the warmth of the past.
As Wen Chong's son, Wen Changjin's temperament is not as strong as Wen Chong's.
On the contrary, the Wen Ranran in front of her was full of intelligence, and she seemed to have some of the demeanor of the past.
The emperor smiled without making a sound, nor did he comment on Wen Ranran. He just motioned for Xia Lishuang to continue.
Xia Lishuang lifted the hem of her clothes, looked at the emperor, and knelt down.
"Reporting back to my father, I took Jin Yuwei to Baqiu Village outside the city. They found that the village occupied a huge area. The dark room was filled with grain, grass and weapons, and there were piles of horses and silver. The village... was in a place with the surname
In Ji’s name!”
The emperor was stunned for a moment, and was horrified when he heard Xia Lishuang's eloquent words.
"Are you telling the truth?!"
"Everything my son said is true!"
After hearing this, Wen Ranran lowered her eyelashes and looked solemn.
"Reporting to your Majesty, I also heard Mr. Li Yuan, the Minister of Rites, saying that he will prepare to start an uprising in two days. I would like to ask my father for advice!"
Wen Ranran always liked to speak straight to the point. Speaking like this was equivalent to directly telling the emperor and the prince that he wanted to rebel.
The emperor's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and his beard was trembling with anger.
"He...is a good son whom I have trained! He has done nothing to serve the country and the people. Instead, he spends all his time thinking about how to exploit my throne!"
The outburst of anger even shocked Wen Ranran.
Xia Lishuang frowned and glanced at Wen Ranran. Wen Ranran immediately understood, turned around, saluted and went out.
In fact, she also knew Xia Lishuang's plan, but for such an earth-shattering event, it would be better for her not to appear at this time.
Lest the old emperor lose face!
Silence returned to the palace, and Xia Lishuang stared at the emperor with clear eyes.
"Li Chang has been slacking off a lot since he took charge of Feiyunqi. Feiyunqi has long been dissatisfied, and he asked his father to make plans in advance."
The emperor was stunned for a while, then slumped back into his chair.
"Go...tell Cheng Fenglou to let Feng Cheng go, and ask Wang Shujun to collect the Imperial Guards as soon as possible!"
The emperor waved his hand, as if he had exhausted all his strength.
Xia Lishuang nodded in agreement.
With the Feiyun Cavalry having rebelled inexplicably, the Royal Forest Army is the last line of defense for the imperial city, and nothing can go wrong at this moment.
Wen Ranran stood outside the hall and waited for some time.
Half an hour later, Xia Lishuang finally walked out of the imperial study room.
"how's it going?"
Xia Lishuang looked at Wen Ranran with a strange expression.
"Father...Father wants you to come in and talk!"
Wen Ranran took a breath of air, a little shocked.
Could it be that he wanted to kill people and silence them to save his respect?
