Chapter 486 Your Majesty, do you want to come in and sit down?
"This matter is different, so it's better to think about it more."
"Qian Lin has just been assassinated, and the emperor is making such a big fuss. Don't you think it's suspicious?"
Situ Qiangwei smiled contemptuously and said angrily: "It is precisely because Qian Lin was assassinated that the emperor was so angry that he hurriedly made a gesture."
"The little emperor is still young. He just suffered a loss and couldn't save his face, so he did it deliberately to show the world."
"Oh, it's just bluffing confidence, deceiving yourself and others!"
Another giant spoke with a hoarse voice: "Since the trouble has reached this point, we don't have to worry about our face."
"The emperor started the war first."
"The majesty of the family cannot be destroyed. It was like this a hundred years ago, and it will be like this a hundred years from now. Whoever touches it will die!!"
Someone yelled: "Yes, why do you care so much!"
"First put these people who have surrendered to the emperor to trial against us."
"By the time the Xiang family enters the imperial capital, it will be too late, and the Li family will become a laughing stock."
"It's better to start on the way to Xiang's house."
"I agree!"
"I also agree!"
"..."
In the end, the nine gatekeepers approved the operation with a vote of seven to two.
It seems that they are extremely united.
He was determined to twist into a rope and suppress Qin Yun's anger.
Not long after, the news from the Xiang family in Jiangbei made the nine great clans put aside their last suspicion.
The Xiang family is preparing to enter the imperial capital and be granted a title, and has already prepared their trip.
Two days later, the main members of the family gathered and set out for the imperial capital together!
On the night before.
Situ Lin also lived up to Qin Yun's expectations and used his position in the Situ family to get the exact information.
The imperial study room is brightly lit.
"Hahaha!"
"Situ Lin's subjugation is truly a stroke of genius!"
"In just a few days, he has brought me huge benefits!"
Seeing Qin Yun bursting into laughter, the cabinet ministers, Feng Lao, Chang Hong and others who were waiting here to be dispatched also smiled.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what news Situ Lin has sent?" Chang Hong asked, cupping his hands.
Qin Yun stood up suddenly and said with sharp eyes: "They are ready to take action."
"The time is noon tomorrow, in a forest near the Lingjiang River."
"They mobilized a lot of people to wipe out the Xiang family and establish their authority."
Everyone's eyes turned cold.
"Having just finished assassinating Qian Lin, he came to assassinate the Xiang family again. He committed the crime completely against the odds and treated the emperor and the law as non-existent!"
"Your Majesty, give the order."
"Tomorrow, the people in the family will never come back!"
"..."
Qin Yun put his hands behind his hands and said with cold eyes: "It's not just the killers, we want to catch them all."
"I still want to live, and I need enough witnesses and physical evidence to testify against the clan!"
"Do you understand?"
Everyone bowed and said: "Your Majesty, we understand!"
A clan cannot be destroyed by killing one person, it can be destroyed by killing hundreds of people. What is needed is constant suppression to destroy its reputation, power, and heritage!
"Very good, Wuming, you and twenty Jin Yiwei will lurk there tonight and wait for an opportunity to capture the assassin leader."
"Chang Hong, you will lead a thousand elite imperial troops to fight together and form an encirclement."
"Kou Tianxiong, you bring five thousand cavalry and receive my imperial decree tomorrow, ready to catch big fish at any time!"
"As for me, I will go together..."
"..."
At night, a large number of people left the palace secretly, but no one noticed them just because they were flying over the eaves and walls.
After arranging tomorrow's tasks, Qin Yun took another letter in his hand and went to Qingxin Pavilion, a corner of the palace alone.
The place is as deserted and indifferent as ever, as if it were a small courtyard next door, without a single servant.
There was a knock on the door.
Si Qing's figure appeared in the room and lit the candle.
"Who?"
Si Qing's tone sounded extremely confused, but she was not afraid. After all, this was a heavily defended palace.
Creak.
She opened a corner of the door, and in the moonlight, her face was stunned for a moment.
"His Majesty!"
Why did he come suddenly in the middle of the night?
Qin Yun glanced at her. He must have fallen asleep just now, as he was wearing a thin blue embroidered cloak.
Her hair is shawl, and her facial features are graceful.
There was a faint fragrance lingering around her collarbone, as if exuding the fragrance of a woman.
"Going to bed so early?"
"I'm here to deliver a letter to you." Qin Yun raised the envelope in his hand.
Hearing this, Si Qing reacted, immediately opened the door, and tightened her cloak with her hands.
She seemed slightly embarrassed, after all, she was only wearing obscene clothes underneath.
"letter?"
"mine?"
she asked slightly surprised.
Qin Yun nodded: "Your uncle's letter, he provided me with some information, and there is also a letter from your family."
Hearing this, Si Qing smiled. Now, her only uncle has become her sustenance.
I took the letter and endured the curiosity to open it.
He opened the door hesitantly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for sending the letter. Do you... want to come in and sit down?"
Her beautiful eyes twinkled and she was very embarrassed.
Not inviting him would be rude and disrespectful to His Majesty.
Invitation, a woman invites a man into her house late at night, she feels ashamed just thinking about it.
Qin Yun took a look inside the room. The decorations were simple, but very neat and feminine.
"never mind."
"The letter has been delivered, it's time for me to leave."
Si Qing did not try to persuade him to stay, but felt it was inappropriate, so he chased him out and said, "Your Majesty, I will send you off."
Qin Yun looked back and saw her running towards her, growing lotuses every step of the way. She had an indescribable melancholy beauty, and her indifferent temperament made her really unique.
"No need to give it away. This is the palace, my home. How can I forget my way home?"
Si Qing explained: "That's what I say, but I live in the palace and don't have to worry about food and drink. I'm very embarrassed."
"If you don't understand this etiquette, you deserve to go to the street to beg for food."
Qin Yun frowned and said, "How can I, the king of my country, care about the food money?"
"Your Majesty's grace is so vast that you don't care, but I do."
"I am a useless person, but I live in the purest place in the palace, eating royal food, and my conscience is uneasy." Si Qing lowered her head and said.
Qin Yun said helplessly: "Your uncle has helped me a lot. For this alone, you can live and eat in this palace for free all your life."
The night wind blows on her face, and Si Qing's hair is fluttering, exuding a delicate fragrance.
She didn't speak, just smiled.
The two walked side by side.
Qin Yun asked again: "Have you thought about what you will do in the future?"
"It's better not to worship the Buddha statue. It's all a lie. I don't believe you can let go of your uncle's upbringing."
She said: "I haven't thought about it yet..."
"What can I do as a woman?"
She smiled bitterly. In her opinion, the most important thing to do was to take care of her husband and raise her children, but fate played a trick on her.
"I grew up in a big mansion and had no worries about food and clothing. It wasn't until this time that I realized how difficult life was."
Hearing this, Qin Yun glanced at her and found that there were many calluses and tears on her hands.
"I heard, you don't want servants to serve you, you even have to wash your clothes yourself, why bother?"
