Chapter 828: Demeanor, the mind of an emperor

Prince Xiao led his troops to break into the city, but when he reached the gate of the palace, he disbanded his troops and horses and left the capital alone. The people in the capital did not understand his intention in doing so. It was not until the Third Prince, Xiao Zian, came to greet him at the gate of the palace that the ministers of the court understood.

It turned out that Prince Xiao had already prepared!

“Imperial Uncle, the empress is already waiting in the main hall, please…” Xiao Zian looked indifferent, neither happy nor sad.

Xiao Tianyao didn’t even look at him and walked straight into the palace, and the ministers behind him followed him one by one.

A few deliberately lagged behind a few steps, walked up to Xiao Zian, and asked him what happened to the Emperor in a low voice.

It was a pity that Xiao Zian didn’t say anything but just shook his head.

Everyone had no choice but to follow Prince Xiao into the palace nervously.

In the main hall, the Empress led the seventh prince and stood beside the dragon chair. The seat of the dragon chair was empty. The Emperor would not appear.

Before everyone asked questions, as soon as Xiao Tianyao entered the hall, the Empress said: “The Emperor is not in good health, and the matter of Xiao Wangye has already been handled by this empress. Do you have any objections?”

“Empress, where is His Highness the Crown Prince?” A white-haired veteran stood up and asked.

He was not targeting Xiao Tianyao, he just pays attention to the rules.

“His Royal Highness has been in a semi-crazy state since he was frightened in the temple last time, and has not been awake.” When the Empress said this, her eyes fell on General Zhou.

Although the events of that day were hidden, anyone with little knowledge knew what happened.

That day, although the crown prince got drunk and had a relationship with Miss Zhou, was this the case?

Not many people believe it.

“Ahem, fortunately, Prince An and His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince are here. It is more important for His Highness the Crown Prince to take good care of his health earlier.” Prime Minister You coughed lightly and expressed his opinion.

And his words also represent the opinions of the aristocratic family. Although the aristocratic family did not expressly say that they were on Prince Xiao’s side, they didn’t speak for the Emperor either.

The aristocratic family has spoken, and more than half of the courtiers in the court have to agree. As for the general?

The generals with military power were not in the court, and there were still a few generals in the court who have not received the favor of Prince Xiao. The current situation was very beneficial to Prince Xiao, how could they raise objections?

The Emperor was not here, and the courtiers don’t need to kneel and bow. After bowing to the Empress and the Seventh Prince, the eunuch moved to the phoenix seat and asked the Empress to sit down.

“Empress, I don’t know if the Emperor will explain, how to deal with the matter of King Xiao?” As soon as the Empress took her seat, a minister with a wink stood up to start the game.

“The Emperor said that a loyal subject should not be wronged, nor should a villain with evil intentions be spared. Didn’t Xiao Wangye say that he led the troops to the capital based on the Emperor’s secret decree? Then let him come up with the secret decree.”

“Didn’t Xiao Wangye say that there is not so much gold and silver in his mansion? He was framed by officials from the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Punishment. Then order someone to re-calculate the silver in the national inventory and the property of Xiao Wangfu.”

“Didn’t Xiao Wangye say that the supplies of food and medicine for his soldiers and horses are not enough all year round? Then let people recalculate the amount of food and medicine allocated by the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of War in the past few years. When the figures come out, we will know if Xiao Wangye said is true or false. Those with eyes can tell.”

The Empress’s words were just and righteous, but both inside and outside the words were to overthrow the Emperor’s decision, and to facilitate Xiao Tianyao. The Ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War were scared to pee. The three stood up at the same time, and said in unison: “The Empress, you can’t.”

“Oh? Why not?” The Empress’s tone remained unchanged, but it was obvious that she was angry.

“The Empress, Xiao Wangye’s rebellion is a case decided by the Emperor. The evidence for this matter is conclusive. It is an ironclad fact that Xiao Wangye led troops to attack the city and sent troops to stop the rescue troops from entering the city. How can he be allowed to argue?” Of course, the Minister of the Ministry of War knows that what they say now was useless, but if they didn’t say anything their death will be even worse.

If they calculate seriously, Prince Xiao will be proven innocent. At that time, it won’t be the Emperor who will be at fault, but those who do the specific things. They will be the ones who framed Prince Xiao, and it will not be as simple as beheading them.

“Although the Emperor has settled the case, the news the Emperor has received is all from you. Now, you and Xiao Wangye are holding different opinions. Who knows who is saying true and false? This Empress said that the Emperor will not let go of any people with different intentions, but they will not harm loyal courtiers. At this point, it is not up to you whether Xiao Wangye rebelled or not. Since Xiao Wangye wants to verify, we will naturally give him this opportunity.” The Empress slowly said. In terms of bearing and majesty, she was not much weaker than the Emperor, and all the courtiers were also cautious when facing the Empress.

“The Empress, this minister wants to see the Emperor!” The ministers of the Ministry of Household Affairs, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Ministry of War knew that the Empress must be on the side of Prince Xiao. Unless the Emperor came out to preside over the overall situation, things would fall to Prince Xiao.

“The Emperor is not in good health, so he can’t see you.”

“The Empress, his majesty was fine yesterday, so why is he in poor health today? Could it be that you don’t allow this minister to wait to see the Emperor? The Empress, what is your intention in doing this?” No matter which side, they have a dead end, so the three ministers can’t control so much up.

“The emperor’s health is not up to me. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Imperial Doctor Qin.” Although she was planning to attack the Emperor, she didn’t expect the Emperor to collapse before she could do anything. It can be seen that God was helping her.

Soon, Imperial Doctor Qin was brought to the main hall. Imperial Doctor Qin has already tidied up and looks in good spirits, but the bruise on his forehead hasn’t disappeared yet, it still looked obvious.

“Imperial Doctor Qin, what’s the matter with the Emperor? Imperial Doctor Qin, if you have anything to say, just say it, this is the main hall, no one can touch you.” The three ministers looked at Imperial Doctor Qin eagerly, their words full of hints.

Imperial Doctor Qin smiled wryly: “Answering back the minister, the Emperor has a headache, and I am afraid that he will not be able to deal with the affairs of the court in a short time.” He wanted the Empress and Prince Xiao to take the blame, but the Emperor did suffer from a headache. There was no way to fake it.

“Headache attack? When did the Emperor have a headache?” Not many people knew about the fact that the Emperor often had headaches.

There were many things and complicated business affairs, and it was normal to have a headache.

“The Emperor has been suffering from headaches for some time. Recently, the attacks have been frequent, and he passed out yesterday.” Imperial Doctor Qin didn’t dare to add fuel to the picture, but he didn’t hide anything. At least people with a discerning heart immediately understood that the Emperor’s headaches frequently occur because of Prince Xiao’s matter.

However, even if there was a relationship, what’s the use of it? The Emperor had a headache due to his anger toward Prince Xiao. Because the other party has no good intentions. Others would say how hateful Prince Xiao was, while others would say that the Emperor didn’t have the heart and temperament that an emperor should have.

It was true that the Emperor has a headache, and it was true that he was unable to handle official duties, so it was reasonable to leave the matter to the Empress. It was useless for the three ministers to talk about it. They can only watch the Empress make an order and order people to re-investigate the matter of Prince Xiao’s rebellion… …
