Emperor Shengchun personally issued two decrees. The first was to order the cabinet to review yesterday's decree that eight officials headed by Shi Wei broke into the palace without permission and were demoted by one rank.
On the other hand, King Qi was ordered to Feng Qi to make arrangements for the reception of the Northern Yi delegation, and Xie Feng and Hua Qingsong were appointed as accompanying officers to accompany Feng Qi.
Obviously, the second decree was issued after the first review.
Today, officials from the Xiao family, Hua Dang, and King Qi's lineage, starting with Fangtang, the Minister of the Ministry of War, are denounced by King Xuan's lineage...
Let’s not talk about the fact that the eight main leaders of the other side are still lying on the couch, unable to argue with them. Just talk about the number of elders from the three families combined in the cabinet. Even if these eight people are here, they can’t stop the imperial edict from passing.
Of course, during this period, it was not that the remaining officials from King Xuan's lineage argued hard and even moved out. It was King Qi who led everyone to break into the palace. Their lineage should not bear the primary responsibility at all, so the punishment should be along with King Qi's lineage.
Punishment...
As a result, King Qi's lineage exploded. Feng Qi, who had injured his ankle but had to be supported to receive the order, smashed an official's head with a jade scepter.
I'm thinking that you are plotting against me, and you still want to drag me into the water?
Do you think I am stupid?
Seeing that the two men were about to fight in front of him, Feng Wuyan, who was sitting on the dragon throne, finally interrupted them coldly and said that there was no need to discuss the matter anymore.
He is willing to pretend to be blind, and Hua Dang and King Qi are also willing to remain silent. As for King Xuan's lineage, they will have to reap the consequences.
Then all the ministers saw Shen Mian shouting to withdraw from the court. Before they could stand up and salute, the emperor on the dragon throne had disappeared.
Yes, the Hunjun is still the same Hunjun. He is so anxious to return to Yangxin Hall and he doesn’t know who he is for~
After putting down the jade hut, all the courtiers finally left cursing.
Some were teasing, and naturally some were cursing. Among them, the eight officials who got the news and the eldest princess, whose son was still lying in bed unable to move, were the most angry.
"It's just for hurting our people, but they actually want to be reduced by one rank? Isn't this a slap in the face of our family, a slap in Xuan'er's face? And my poor Liang'er, he, he..."
As soon as she talked about Lu Liang, the eldest princess' tears flowed out uncontrollably.
Because although Lu Liang's broken bones were all reattached by Yan Moqing, his spirit was not as good as before.
He would even be woken up by nightmares at night, and he would even say that someone was breaking his bones, saying that he felt like his bones were like porcelain and would break when touched...
As a mother, how could she not feel distressed when hearing all this?
But she still had so many family members to appease, and she didn't have time to stay with her son all the time. She could only ask Wenjia to take more care of her brother.
"Eldest Princess, don't be impatient. The crown prince's condition is very easy to deal with. It's just a matter of time that he will get better. As for those eight adults, it just sounds unpleasant to be reduced by one rank."
Seeing that the eldest princess looked depressed, Yan Moqing hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her.
Glancing sideways at Feng Xuan beside her, she continued:
"We have already taken care of the officials in the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of Household Affairs, and the Ministry of Industry. Not to mention a few adults who have been reduced by one rank. Even if the emperor is appointing three new ministers, they are just empty shells in name only.
That’s all.”
"What Mo Qing said is true, but the adults' injuries won't heal in a short time. I'm afraid this Fengfeng Banquet and Mingqiu Mountain Hunting..."
Marquis Anding asked the question with some headache, but Feng Xuan smiled and said:
"In the past, Mo Qing and I often went out or retreated, so that you and my aunt were in control of the affairs in the capital. You did a good job, but it was also so good that we became a family tree and became everyone today.
It’s a situation where people are shouting and fighting. So being forced to keep a low profile is not necessarily a bad thing.”
Obviously, Lu Liang's words that day had some impact on Feng Xuan, but the biggest impact was not whether to kill Xiao Xiruo or not, but making him completely notice Xiao Xiruo.
In the memory of his previous life, Xiao Xiruo's sense of existence was really low.
Because she was either taking medicine or suffering from illness, the only time she appeared in front of everyone after entering the capital was at the birthday banquet at the General's Mansion.
At that time, he was still in southern Xinjiang.
All I know is that Feng Yehan tried to save her, but Yan Moqing bluntly said that she couldn't be cured.
Then at the end of the next year, the Xiao family's father and son died in battle, and the noble concubine committed suicide in her own palace.
Yes, the world said that she died suddenly due to illness due to worry, but now I am afraid that only he, Feng Xuan, knows that this is not the case.
Because he wanted to make a fuss about the other party's death, he sneaked into Changle Palace on the night when the news came from Beiliang.
That was the first time he saw Xiao Xiruo in his previous life, but it was also the only time, because what he saw was actually Xiao Xiruo's body...
A corpse stabbed in the heart with a dagger, fell on the strange formation, and filled more than 180 formations with its own blood.
He felt that Xiao Xiruo was sacrificing his body to the formation, but he had no time to explore what kind of formation it was.
Because Feng Wuyan quickly led people to break into the palace gate and found more than one corpse inside the palace.
Xiao Xiruo died, and Liu Xue who came with her also died without stopping.
So to this day, no one knows what happened that night. Feng Xuan doesn't know, and he believes that Feng Wuyan, who led people to clean up the scene, won't know either.
However, Feng Wuyan was crazy, but he was quite good to Xiao Xiruo, who was in the same miserable situation. Of course, maybe it was also because Xiao Xiruo was the least existential among all the concubines in his previous life, and she never made things difficult for him.
In short, she was buried lavishly in the imperial mausoleum, and she was given the title of Imperial Concubine Wenxian Huijia. The grandness and splendor of the funeral were unmatched by any of the later empresses who were ordered to be "buried lavishly" by Feng Wuyan.
Although there are also contributions from the Xiao family and his son, Feng Xuan personally felt that Feng Wuyan, who covered the shame of the deceased, was more kind than Feng Yehan who later directly took over the Xiao family's cavalry.
It's not like he didn't worry about Xiao Xiruo's affairs in his previous life. He even took the time to check the formation...
However, that incident was just like Xiao Xiruo's anger before his death, so he did it as a joke, and it had no impact on subsequent events.
They should fight no matter how they fought. Except that Feng Yehan and Yan Moqing won, he couldn't find any value in Xiao Xiruo's sacrifice of himself.
Could it be that she really loved Feng Yehan so much that she would rather have him be with another woman than sacrifice him to become the Ninth Five-Year-Old?
For this reason, he was willing to kill Feng Wuyan, who would eventually collect her bones and pursue the entire Xiao family?
Feng Xuan didn't understand, but was very shocked.
Until he came back to his life, until he saw the current Xiao Xiruo, he began to have a new guess, whether Xiao Xiruo was also reborn.
She was so kind to Feng Wuyan, was there an element of repayment?
In short, there are many suspicions in the capital today, and Xiao Xiruo is undoubtedly the one who makes him most curious among these suspicions.
Whether it is an evil ghost from another life or a sharp sword controlled by Feng Wuyan, he will definitely find out during this hunting in Mingqiu Mountain.
Of course, rather than intervening on his own, he felt that Yan Moqing and Princess Wu Zhu, who was about to come to the capital, were Xiao Xiruo's best opponents.
Especially... Wu Zhu, who has been in love with Feng Wuyan for many years. This chapter has been completed!
