As a last resort, she would certainly not be willing to use force to drive him away, which would definitely affect her reputation among the people.
But, apart from driving them away by force, what else can be done now?
This is what the prince is eager to know.
There was a lot of resentment outside the palace gate, and he would have been persuaded to go back just by persuasion alone. The prince hoped that Zhao Xiaole could find a good way.
Zhao Xiaole turned his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Your Highness, at present, it seems that if we don't use force to drive them away, there is no other way!"
Hearing this, the prince's eyes showed deep disappointment.
It turns out you think so too!
You actually sided with the prime minister and the others.
Xiaole, have you betrayed me?
A chill ran through the prince's body, and a feeling of helplessness came over her. She slumped weakly on her seat, feeling that it was difficult to generate any strength.
Qin Sining next to him saw this and looked at Zhao Xiaole reproachfully.
Full of resentment and reproach.
Prime Minister Liu Bern, Wang Yuan and others hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, what the Marquis of Zhenguo said is true. Now there is no other way except to drive us away by force. Once the situation expands, it will be difficult to deal with it!"
"Your Highness, you must not do this!" Henghou and others hurriedly stepped forward to admonish him.
The prince was already disheartened and waved his hand feebly, "There is no need to argue anymore. Now that the matter has come to an end, go and send the order to the red-armored warriors! Expulsion of all the living members outside the palace gate. Those who refuse to accept will be sent to the Ministry of Punishment and their duties will be cancelled."
Scientific examination qualification.”
Seeing that their persuasion was no longer effective, the three Henghou people all looked at Zhao Xiaole with hatred. They didn't expect that the most trusted confidant of the prince would turn back at this moment!
If he was willing to side with the prince, they wouldn't be so passive now, four against four.
"Your Excellency Zheng Guohou, since ancient times, double-dealing has never ended well. I hope you can think clearly when doing things!"
The Minister of War looked at Zhao Xiaole coldly and said that he actually wanted to send troops to expel the students, which would inevitably lead to him being stained with the blood of innocent people.
If he wasn't forced to do so, he would certainly not be willing to do it.
Zhao Xiaole sneered, "I'm doing things now, when did I need your guidance? Just mind your own business!"
This was originally the last chance given by the Minister of War to Zhao Xiaole, but unfortunately, Zhao Xiaole answered decisively, which directly made the prince and others feel completely cold.
The Prime Minister and Wang Yuan never dreamed that Zhao Xiaole would suddenly fall towards them. They didn't know if it was because his head was kicked by a donkey or for other reasons?
At this time, they felt very happy to see the prince's man biting his own dog.
If they weren't still in the main hall of the East Palace, the two of them would have toasted to celebrate.
Liu Bern stepped forward and urged: "Lord Li Yuan, His Highness has given an order, why don't you execute it quickly?"
Li Lin, Minister of the Ministry of War, glanced at them fiercely, "Good! Very good, the country will always fall into your hands!"
"His Royal Highness, the ministers will go and carry out His Highness's orders immediately!"
"slow!"
As soon as Li Lin finished speaking, Zhao Xiaole suddenly shouted loudly, and then said to the prince: "Your Highness, I have not finished what I just said."
"Li Lin has a bad reputation for robbing people's property. What if he goes there to trigger a civil uprising? I see that no one in the six ministries can be used today, except the prime minister who still has a good reputation. I would like to ask your highness to send the prime minister to lead the troops to drive away the unrest.
"
Zhao Xiaole's words stunned everyone.
When he told the prime minister to lead the troops, everyone finally understood.
Good guy!
This strategy is really vicious!
If the prime minister really goes, he will have to bear all the bad reputation, and the prince's reputation will be protected.
It not only drove away the students, but also preserved the reputation of the prince.
No wonder the prince chose Zhao Xiaole among them, there was indeed a reason.
They had thought up this plan early, waited for the prime minister and others to come up with it, and then shot themselves in the foot.
What a calculation!
He even hid it from his own people.
After thinking about this, Li Lin and Heng Hou's eyes flashed with wonder, and they stepped forward and reported back to the prince:
"We agree with the Marquis of Zhenguo's suggestion. Now that all the officials in the six ministries are guilty, please retire from office and let His Highness punish you!"
When the other ministers heard this, they suddenly realized that they were also guilty, and they all knelt down together with Wang Yuan, lying on the ground to plead guilty.
Only Prime Minister Liu Bern was left stamping his feet anxiously.
Others had apologized because they were worried that this errand would be assigned to him. What made him even more angry was that Wang Yuan also got down and apologized.
This piece of shit!
Liu Bern had no choice but to kneel down and plead guilty, "I am also guilty, please punish me, Your Highness!"
Because of Zhao Xiaole's few words, the current situation suddenly reversed, and the prince's eyes were filled with smiles.
"Master Prime Minister, what is your crime? Tell me and let me know."
"This... this, this, this, my crime is... it is a crime of negligence, a crime committed by the six departments, I bear unshirkable responsibility, and it is above the six!"
Liu Bern knelt on the ground and stammered a lot of accusations.
The prince almost couldn't hold it back and said with a smile, "In that case, how about I give the Prime Minister a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious service?"
The meaning was obvious, so he was naturally asked to lead the troops to expel the students.
Of course Liu Bo was unwilling, "I am a guilty person and should not hold this position. Please take back my life."
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, please wake up. I am just joking!" the prince said, suppressing a smile.
"Everyone else, please get up too. I have already said that the two newspapers are making irresponsible remarks about government affairs. You are not to blame. Naturally, you will not be held accountable."
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
After the six officials got up, the prince said again: "But this time the students are causing trouble, we still have to ask the prime minister to intervene!"
"Don't refuse yet. The Marquis of Zhenguo said it right. If others go, it will easily trigger a civil uprising. Now it is only appropriate for you to go. Please don't refuse, Prime Minister!"
When he finished speaking, the prince's eyes suddenly turned cold.
Liu Bern was so frightened that he suddenly shook his head and nodded: "I...I understand, I will deal with this matter now."
He had no choice now, the prince's threat was already obvious.
If he continues to resist, the prince will use the previous accusation to push him out as the scapegoat.
"Very good! I believe you can handle this matter! People from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice will follow, and we must let the prime minister handle this matter properly!"
When the prince said the word "proper", he deliberately lengthened the syllables.
Li and Lin immediately understood and nodded: "Wei Chen understands and will definitely assist the prime minister in handling this matter properly!"
The prime minister had no choice but to smile bitterly, and before leaving, he glanced angrily at Zhao Xiaole, who had a proud face.
It’s all this person!
His current fate is all thanks to this man!
If the prince hadn't wanted to keep the two ministers of the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice, I'm afraid his career as prime minister would have come to an end today.
And now, he wants to offend the outside students again. So many candidates who have taken refuge in his career will have to change their career again after today.
