Chapter 411 Princess, Save Me
After hearing this, all the ministers were shocked.
It turns out that the Imperial Concubine Duanjin did not die in childbirth due to her own reasons, but was poisoned by the current Empress Dowager?
Some people's eyes naturally fell on the prime minister. The empress dowager had murdered the imperial concubine and then the prince. Even after the prince was crowned a king and sent to the border, they still did not let him go.
They wouldn't believe that Prime Minister Wen had no hand in this!
Prime Minister Wen broke out in a cold sweat and stood up to protest his injustice.
"Your Highness, the Queen Mother was wronged, and the Emperor was wronged as well. The Emperor loves you like a brother, how could he harm you?"
But everyone found this funny.
The emperor treats the prince like a brother? Is Prime Minister Wen scared?
The moment he finished speaking, Prime Minister Wen regretted it. He shouldn't have said that!
Sure enough, even Yu Tingwan sneered after hearing this and looked up at him.
"Do you believe what the Prime Minister said? If the Emperor loves the Prince like a brother, then what is he doing? Is he cutting off his own limbs?"
Well, if the surrounding atmosphere had not allowed it, they would have laughed out loud.
That's right. The emperor could wrongly accuse the prince to such an extent, and even let the five countries attack the prince together. If this is still called brotherhood, then those legitimate and illegitimate sons in their palace are so harmonious that they would cry!
The prime minister felt ashamed after being mocked by Yu Tingwan. He became furious and looked at Yu Tingwan with eyes that looked as if he wanted to eat her!
"Princess, this is the imperial court, not a place for you to be. It's fine for you to stay here, but this is not a place for a woman like you to speak!"
boom!
Everyone's eyes blurred and they saw that Prime Minister Wen, who was originally standing in the front, had fallen at the palace gate.
Everyone was shocked and looked forward, only to see that Prince Chen was no longer in his original position.
The other generals brought back by the princes and Prince Song also took several steps forward. The fierceness in their eyes made them tremble with fear!
"Prime Minister, you are so bold! Who do you think you are? How dare you speak to the princess like that?"
Song Shixu sneered, looking at him with murderous intent in his eyes without any concealment.
"Not to mention this palace, in the entire capital and even in the entire Dasheng, there is no place where the princess cannot go or where the princess cannot speak!"
As soon as these words were spoken, they were instantly recognized by all the generals.
Why are women not allowed to attend court and not allowed to speak? Is the princess an ordinary woman?
In their hearts, the princess is the same as the prince, or even a little bit more powerful than the prince!
Naturally, no matter where she is, the princess has the final say!
Shen Chenli looked at Prime Minister Wen coldly, and slowly spoke as everyone stared at him with bated breath:
"Prime Minister Wen insulted my princess. He deserves death. Take him away and punish him with ten canes. Then lock him up in the side hall and keep him under strict guard. No one is allowed to visit him!"
Well, this made them frightened and at the same time they didn't know what was going on.
Why was he imprisoned in the palace instead of being allowed to return home?
No one could figure out what Shen Chenli was thinking, but it didn't affect their mission. Then someone dragged Prime Minister Wen away to execute him with a caning!
"My Lord, you, my Lord!"
Prime Minister Wen was horrified. Ten strokes of the cane? Wouldn't that be the end of his life?
But no one paid any attention to him.
The other ministers in the court no longer dared to speak, and at the same time seriously warned themselves in their hearts.
Never go against the princess in the future, otherwise they won’t even know how they died!
They also have to go back and warn their younger generations not to offend the princess. It looks like they can't save him. Not to mention the prince, the generals who followed the prince back from the border and even the prince will not let them go!
This episode passed quickly, and everyone remembered what the prince had asked them to read before, and then they heard the prince's voice again.
"As for what the emperor, the empress dowager and others did, someone will naturally make the evidence public to the world. By then, everyone will know what happened!"
The ministers were so frightened that they became numb, and some even began to tremble.
What is the difference between making the emperor's mistakes public and asking him to issue a self-criticism edict?
But no one dared to say a word. The ending of Prime Minister Wen was still replaying before their eyes, and they dared not say a single word!
At this time, some ministers suddenly thought of why the late emperor chose to bring Prince Chen to his side for education, but finally sent him out of the palace, or even directly sent him to a place like the border!
It's not a loss of favor as they thought, but protection!
What the emperor and the empress dowager did made them even more frightened. Although they had seen too many fights among royal family members, they had always been bloody.
But someone like the emperor, who is nice to Prince Chen on the surface but wants to kill him secretly, still makes them feel cold in their hearts!
Is this why Prince Chen never comes back?
However, the ministers were only surprised by these things. They were most concerned about themselves. After all, the prince mentioned them!
Some ministers felt relieved after listening to what Song Shixu said, while some ministers became worried again.
The prince only told them to reflect on their mistakes behind closed doors, but he didn't say when they would be allowed to come out!
Are they not going to let them out at all?
However, these ministers did not dare to say a word of opposition as they did not want to be punished.
After all the matters came to an end, Shen Chenli began to assign other matters to the ministers one after another, all of which were in response to Da Sheng's current situation.
The most important thing is to isolate those who have the disease and prevent them from running around and infecting more people.
In addition, the ministers and people who took the elixir were also isolated and allowed to withdraw from the drug.
Those who have elixirs in their hands should hand them over to the government, and those who buy and sell elixirs will all be arrested and put in jail to await trial!
All of a sudden, all the ministers who could move were mobilized. Even those who had been asked to reflect on their mistakes behind closed doors were only asked not to go out at other times. However, soldiers followed them to various ministries to work every day!
You can't take a rest. No matter how uncomfortable it is, you have to do your job. Otherwise, you might as well resign!
In just a few days, Shen Chenli and his team never stopped. Memorials from various places, as well as other unrest in other places and the chaos in the capital had to be resolved as quickly as possible.
Even after Yu Tingwan had given Lu Cheng various antidotes and a lot of spiritual spring water, she was pulled over by Shen Chenli, who had been in the palace, to deal with various memorials!
“Can I not look at these things?”
Looking at the pile of memorials, Yu Tingwan had a terrible headache.
She prefers to take the Wind Army out to capture people!
But Shen Chenli pressed her down on the dragon throne and stuffed a pen into her hand.
Shen Chenli looked at her and smiled and shook his head: "No, Princess, please be kind and save me!"
He doesn't want to watch it either!
Sitting on the other side of the hall was Song Shixu. He hadn't left the hall for several days. When he looked up at Yu Tingwan, his dark circles were as big as a panda's.
He was seen complaining to Yu Tingwan with a sad face.
"Princess, please save me too. The prince is not a human being. I am almost dying of exhaustion!"
