After entering the palace, the young eunuch led them all the way to the Zhengde Hall.
Zhengde Hall is not the main hall for official court meetings, but the place where the emperor and cabinet elders hold discussions.
Emperor Ming seemed to be looking pretty good. He was sitting on the dragon throne, with civil and military officials standing on both sides of the throne. The atmosphere was not very good.
The tall man with a beard on the left who deliberately wore a military uniform came up, and he knew that he was none other than the Yongwu Marquis - Zhou Chen, the father of Zhou Changle.
As for Nine Thousand Years Old Cang Qiao...
He was the only civil and military official in the entire dynasty, sitting lazily on the carved Eight Immortals chair diagonally in front of the emperor, wearing a scarlet python robe and a jade belt.
It's not like he's defending the emperor, but like the Supreme Emperor.
She didn't look at him, only lowered her eyes and stepped forward to salute: "See you, Your Majesty, nine thousand years old."
"Get up." The emperor waved his hand.
Then, he coughed: "Now that everyone is here, I'm asking you all to come over, just to clear up the misunderstanding and express your opinions."
When Ming Lanruo heard this, she knew that Emperor Ming was planning to protect the Zhou family, otherwise the unauthorized deployment of troops could not be defined as a "misunderstanding"!
She narrowed her cold eyes, the emperor had no control over this matter!
Sure enough, Dali Temple Minister Xu Gong was the first to rush out and angrily bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, what kind of misunderstanding is this? It is obviously someone from the Zhou family who is good at
I mobilized the sergeants and killers from the capital and tried to kill my family members in broad daylight!"
He had three sons and one daughter, and Xu Xiuyi, the apple of his eye, almost died at the hands of the Zhou family. How could he not be angry?
The censor of Zuodu also stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, those murderers have the Zhou Family Army's middle-ranking cards. This matter should be reviewed by the three departments!"
His second daughter was also almost killed in Mingchun Lake. This week, the Zhou family was so arrogant in killing people in public. They were clearly relying on the emperor's favor and not taking them as civil servants seriously!
Emperor Ming touched his beard, indicating that they did not need to talk anymore, and looked at Zhou Chen: "What did Marquis Yongwu say?"
Zhou Chen stood up and looked at the civil servants fiercely: "You bastards, if I want to kill your daughter, will I put my cards on those killers and sergeants?"
"It's clear that it was a frame-up. Your daughter was unlucky enough to be on that ship, so she was implicated!"
Zhou Chen was so rude and shirking responsibility that the civil servants were so angry that their beards trembled: "You, you, you... are really vulgar!"
Zhou Chen looked at Emperor Ming, knelt down with a "pop" and clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, all the sergeants are registered. There is not a single person missing in our Huben Camp. The badges on those corpses must be fake!"
As he spoke, he banged his head on the ground with a bang: "My sister Zhou Hou has been in the palace for more than 20 years. She has diligently taken care of the Sixth Palace and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Now she has been framed and imprisoned by an adulterer.
In the palace, that traitor has come to harm our Zhou family again, Your Majesty, you must make the decision for us!"
The shocking sound of "bang, bang, bang, bang" made all the civil servants frightened.
The martial artist usually kept silent, but who would have thought that the moment he made a move or spoke, he would become so powerful that they were speechless!
"Okay, okay, Zhou Aiqing, get up quickly, I told you it was a misunderstanding!" Emperor Ming looked at Zhou Chen like that, and he was really confused.
Because of the confinement of Queen Zhou, this reckless man came into the palace every three days to stop him from reasoning.
Zhou Chen is a brave and fierce guy, but he has a clear mind, is easy to see through, and is easy to control. The military commanders in the court are always weak, so he doesn't want to lose the support of the Zhou family just yet.
He believed that Zhou Chen was capable of killing ministers and their families in public, but he still had to protect the Zhou family.
"Could it be me that the traitor Marquis Yongwu said was me?" Ming Lanruo's cool voice sounded.
Instantly attracted everyone's attention
In this depressing and sharp dispute, Cang Qiao looked at Ming Lanruo lazily, playing with the jade ring with his fingertips, thinking casually——
I haven't looked at her these days. Is the little she-cat still angry about the quarrel in the Queen's Palace that day?
Today, she was dressed in a high-end princess make-up, dignified and elegant, but she didn't know if it would be different if her face turned red as she begged him to let him go.
He chuckled, ah, he is really a devil with no moral bottom line, obviously he can't do anything...
Ming Lanruo felt the hair on her back when she was looked at by Cang Qiao's evil eyes.
In public, why did he look at her like that?
She had a cold face and focused all her attention on Zhou Chen's head.
She has a tough battle to fight! No time to pay attention to him!
