Beheading two officials who neglected their duties is not a harsh punishment, but it is necessary.
Because of their dereliction of duty, the palace was put in danger. This is the most serious crime, even more serious than corruption and murder.
Where is the palace? It is the center of the entire Yuanyang with hundreds of thousands of people. If zombies break out here, it will lead to a series of disasters, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
If two people are not killed, there is no way to deter the government officials.
Just as Cheng Wenguang said, Zhao Yanxun did not behead everyone in the ceremony, which can be considered a mercy.
Therefore, Zhou Chengping didn't say much at the moment.
At this time, Zhao Yanxun said to Huo An aside: "Also, the guard responsible for inspecting the documents that night will have a staff of twenty...the leader's small flag and a staff will have a staff of thirty!"
"Yes, I will send someone to deliver the order right now!"
Not only the civil servants must be punished, but the guards must also be punished. People on both sides need to be reminded of this.
By this time, the event had come to an end, and the whole process took almost an hour.
After Zhou Chengping and the other two resigned, Zhao Yanxun stood up from his chair and said to Lin Quan, "You also go back and finish what you have to do!"
This was a reminder. Lin Quan knew what the purpose of the reminder was at this moment.
"Your Majesty, what should be done with these captured spies?" Lin Quan asked.
Zhao Yanxun replied casually: "After the case is closed, it will be handed over to the trial court for sentencing!"
Lin Quan and others have the power to investigate the case, but Zhao Yanxun does not intend to leave it to him to judge the case.
"yes!"
"Go on your errands!"
"yes!"
After Lin Quan retreated, Zhao Yanxun stepped out of the Jinshen Palace and called up the system in his mind.
According to the system reminder, Zhao Yanxun can see that the actual population under his control is increasing.
Whether in the south or the north, there are people helping him open up land so that he can become stronger.
After standing there for a while, sorting out the next affairs, Zhao Yanxun walked towards the palace's inner palace.
After being back for more than an hour, it was time for him to go see the princess.
…………
"Empress, Empress..."
In the Tingfeng Pavilion, a maid held up her skirt and ran inside with slow steps.
Huang Rongrong was sitting in front of the dressing table. When she heard the sound, she immediately got up and came to the main hall.
"Are those officials gone?"
The maid gasped and replied: "Gone, already gone..."
Huang Rongrong didn't say much, she stepped out and walked out.
"Your Majesty..." The maid behind quickly followed.
As soon as she walked out of the Tingfeng Pavilion palace gate, Huang Rongrong saw Zhao Yanxun walking inside the palace wall, apparently going to Yongfu Palace.
"Your Majesty..."
In fact, Zhao Yanxun knew that Huang Rongrong had appeared before his voice sounded.
Turning around, the eunuchs accompanying Zhao Yanxun immediately stepped aside and moved to both sides.
Looking at the bright-eyed woman strolling from a distance, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but feel much better.
"My beloved concubine, long time no see. How are you?"
Huang Rongrong stopped one meter in front of Zhao Yanxun, then bowed and saluted: "I pay my respects to the prince!"
Zhao Yanxun took a step forward and took the initiative to help Huang Rongrong up, and the latter leaned into his arms. Zhao Yanxun felt the delicate fragrance coming to him, so much so that he couldn't put it down.
"My lord, I heard that you are back, and I am eager to see you!"
Only Huang Rongrong would say such explicit words.
"My beloved concubine...I didn't come here just to see you!"
"Your Majesty lied. He obviously wanted to go to the Princess and Sister Lin. It can be seen that in His heart..."
"My concubine... my concubine..."
At the end of her speech, Huang Rongrong choked up, which made Zhao Yanxun a little bit dumbfounded. This woman was getting more and more arrogant.
"The princess is pregnant, let's go see her together?" Zhao Yanxun said in a warm tone.
Zhao Yanxun originally thought Huang Rongrong would refuse, but the other party replied: "Okay..."
The scene was a little awkward, but Zhao Yanxun's heart was so strong that he nodded and said: "Let's go!"
Zhao Yanxun continued to walk to Yongfu Palace, Huang Rongrong was chattering beside him.
In Yongfu Palace, Xue Baojun was lying on a chair and resting.
At this moment, she had been informed and was letting the maid help her get up.
"Empress, Empress Rong is here too..." Yuzhu reminded carefully.
She knew that her princess and Huang Rongrong would not deal with each other, so she told them in advance.
Xue Baoyun didn't say anything. Although she was unhappy with Huang Rongrong, she had to give Zhao Yanxun face, so she just ignored it.
"How is the princess doing lately?"
"His Majesty, I was just frightened a few days ago, but I'm fine!" Hou Shiyun replied.
Zhao Yanxun didn't say much. He walked directly into the main hall, surrounded by maids and eunuchs who were kneeling in obeisance.
At this time, Xue Baoyun walked into the main hall, leaned over and said to Zhao Yanxun: "Your Majesty has arrived, and I am not far away to greet you. Please forgive me!"
In two months, Xue Baoyun will give birth, and it is really not convenient for her at this time.
Zhao Yanxun walked forward in a few steps, supported his wife and said, "My dear concubine... you have to take care of yourself!"
Seeing that her husband was so nervous, Xue Baoyun couldn't help but smile and said: "My lord, I am not that squeamish!"
At this moment, Xue Baoyun was happy, but Huang Rongrong felt sour in her heart. She realized that she shouldn't have come.
Helping Xue Baoyun to sit down, Zhao Yanxun also sat down.
"You two sisters, please sit down too!" Xue Baojun said.
Although she felt uncomfortable, now that she was here, Huang Rongrong could only sit down honestly. She did not dare to act like a monster in Yongfu Palace.
Next, Zhao Yanxun greeted Xue Baoyun for a while, and was specifically concerned about the night of May 15th.
When talking about this matter, Huang Rongrong couldn't sit still and spoke more times than Xue Baoyun.
Zhao Yanxun stayed in Yongfu Palace for half an hour. Seeing that Xue Baojun felt sleepy after sitting for a long time, he took Huang Rongrong and left.
After walking out of Yongfu Palace, Huang Rongrong breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, why don't we go listen to some music? The musicians have some new music!" Huang Rongrong suggested.
"Another day!"
Seeing that Zhao Yanxun might be leaving, Huang Rongrong grabbed his sleeve and said, "Your Majesty, it's going to be dark soon... How about going to Tingfeng Pavilion to rest?"
"The female worker recently presented me with new clothes. It is said that a woman looks good on herself, so I just want to put it on and show it to the prince!"
In fact, at this moment, Zhao Yanxun wanted to go to Lin Jingyu's place to visit, as the saying goes, both rain and dew are affected.
But Huang Rongrong's proposal also made his heart move. After all, he hadn't touched a woman for a long time.
Some things are more exciting to do with Huang Rongrong. This girl is not bound by so many "red tapes".
Seeing Zhao Yanxun's move, Huang Rongrong grabbed his hand and said, "Your Highness...let's go?"
"Okay... let's go sit over there!" Zhao Yanxun said with a smile.
When the two left, in Feiyu Pavilion, the maid Xiaoqi came to the side hall.
"Empress, the prince was dragged away by Empress Rong..."
Lin Jingyu is doing embroidery. Today she wears more jewelry than before, and she looks particularly elegant and beautiful.
Lin Jingyu paused for a moment, with a slightly disappointed look on her face, and then said: "I know!"
