If he hadn't held a military position, he would have killed Zhou Chen with a knife!
The Forbidden Army soldiers stuffed Zhou Chen's mouth unceremoniously, and under the leadership of Mu Qingshu, dragged Zhou Chen away like a dog to death.
Shangguan Hongye instantly knelt on the ground: "Father, although I don't know why you made such a decision, even if you want to convict General Zhou, it should be tried by the three judicial departments!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, how can you convince the ministers and others with such a hasty handling?" At this time, Zhou Tongchen also knelt on the ground with red eyes.
This time it was the turn of the Zhou family to kneel down and demand a joint trial by the emperor's three ministers.
Master Xu and others looked at it and thought it was ridiculous——
It’s true that things are changing!
On the other hand, Cang Qiao, who was sitting leisurely and silent all the time, only playing with the jade beads, held her chin and said lazily: "Your Majesty, you are wise."
He didn't seem surprised at all by the emperor's sudden 180-degree change.
After receiving Cang Qiao's affirmation, Emperor Ming seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and his tense back relaxed a little.
He waved his hand impatiently towards Shangguan Hongye, Zhou Tongchen and others.
"Needless to say, the evidence of Xu Qing's family is enough in my opinion. That's it. If you have any information, hand it over. I am in poor health and will retire from the court!"
Zhou Tongchen couldn't help crying and kowtowed desperately: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't do this to my father. He is doing it all for your own good..."
With his father gone, wouldn't the Zhou family be separated?
"Shut up." Shangguan Hongye took a deep breath, shouted sternly, and signaled the Zhou family to take Zhou Tongchen away.
Everything has not reached a desperate situation yet, but this nonsense will make the father even more unhappy!
His eldest cousin was too unqualified and impatient. He was not as stable as his second cousin who was stationed at the border and his third cousin who was born as a concubine.
When Cang Qiao passed by, he saw Shangguan Hongye stop Zhou Tongchen from being stupid and smiled slightly: "Your Highness is really like a prince."
"Master Qiansui, can I talk to you?" Shangguan Hongye suddenly raised his head and looked at Cang Qiao expressionlessly.
Cang Qiao smiled: "Of course, you can."
With that said, he walked out of the hall first.
In the quiet white jade corridor, Shangguan Hongye suddenly looked at Cang Qiao with cold eyes.
"Cang Qiao, what on earth did you say to my father!"
Why did my father's attitude change drastically after he came out of seclusion?
He is not a fool. His father's expression just now was clearly trying to please him!
Cang Qiao looked at Shangguan Hongye calmly: "If you want me to die, I have no choice but to die. Besides, didn't General Zhou just say that he would do nothing for His Majesty?"
He paused and smiled: "In this case, in order to keep His Majesty's little secret, he deserves to die."
Shangguan Hongye looked at Cang Qiao with cold eyes: "It was you, it was you who gave my father the bad idea - to ask my uncle to shoulder all the things that year!"
Otherwise, my father would not refuse the three-level trial, but would look like he wanted to execute my uncle immediately.
He was obviously worried that the interrogation of the three divisions would reveal some secrets that should not be revealed to others, and he was even more worried that his uncle would talk nonsense and leak the secrets.
Cang Qiao looked at him with an unpredictable look: "Why is Your Highness so angry? Don't you know that in His Majesty's eyes, nothing is as important as himself? That's right, he is the emperor."
"You..." Shangguan Hongye choked, feeling cold in his heart.
Yes, he knew his father's virtues very well.
Cang Qiao said calmly: "If His Royal Highness is really interested in what I said, why not ask His Majesty?"
Being called "His Royal Highness" Shangguan Hongye by Cang Qiao inexplicably made him feel even more uncomfortable.
Cang Qiao was too lazy to pay attention to him and turned to leave.
Shangguan Hongye suddenly said hoarsely: "Cang Qiao, I don't allow you to go find her!"
Cang Qiao paused and looked at Shangguan Hongye with a half-smile, "Your Highness, what identity do you use to prevent me from going to find her?"
