Seeing the Prime Minister constantly questioning his existence, Yun Qingluo couldn't help but gently remind him, "Prime Minister, have you seen clearly? The Emperor is still waiting for his reply, so let's not waste his time."

The prime minister turned around and saw the emperor staring at him with a gloomy expression. Suddenly, he shuddered, realizing he had messed things up.

The Prime Minister turned around and glared fiercely at Yun Qingluo. When his gaze fell on the guards beside him, a sudden idea struck him, and he couldn't help but glance at the crowd.

A person stepped out from the crowd and said, "Your Majesty, I have also discovered that there is a Mo family army camp outside the city."

Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

But she kept an eye on the emperor's every move.

Seeing that the emperor was too lazy to even pretend, he hurriedly ordered the capture of the Mo family army, which made him feel even colder.

She really wanted to kill this damned emperor with a single blow; he was A-Chen's own brother.

There's no kinship in the royal family. Sigh, what kind of life did Ah Chen live in his previous life...?

The group waited patiently for another half day.

Finally, the Imperial Guards returned with a troop of men.

Everyone felt that there should be a result now.

The prime minister rushed outside in high spirits, exclaiming, "I knew it... how could this happen?"

The prime minister looked terrified. How could these people... be his family's private soldiers?

What about the Mo family army? What about those three hundred Mo family soldiers?

The Prime Minister stared intently at the Imperial Guards, his eyes filled with accusation.

But the Imperial Guards were also somewhat angry. The Regent was their god of war and their lifelong goal, and the Mo Family Army was their role model.

This prime minister not only plotted against the regent, but also against the Mo family army. And he didn't even try to do it cleanly, ultimately getting himself caught in the crossfire.

Bah, serves them right.

The prime minister was utterly shocked, his head was spinning, and he was on the verge of going crazy.

Damn Qi Ren, what on earth is going on?

Who? Who can tell him what's going on...?

He wanted to ask Qi Ren, but he wasn't there, so he could only swallow his doubts.

Seeing the prime minister shrink back like a stray dog, the emperor asked coldly, "How is it?"

The prime minister shrank back, not daring to speak.

The Imperial Guard leader glanced at the Prime Minister, his voice hesitant, but he still answered:

"Your Majesty, this humble general did indeed discover over three hundred men in the suburbs, but they were not the Mo family army. Yes, yes..."

The emperor's tone was somewhat impatient, "What is it? Speak quickly!"

The Imperial Guardsman hurriedly knelt down and said, "They...they are soldiers from the Prime Minister's residence. Each of them has the character 'Qi' embroidered on their collar. We also found a roster; these people belong to the Qi family."

To save face for the Prime Minister, the Imperial Guards did not explicitly state that these men were the Prime Minister's private soldiers.

But everyone knew perfectly well what was going on, and the room erupted in uproar.

"What's going on? Weren't those people supposed to be the Mo family army?"

"Hey, this is ridiculous. We couldn't find the Mo family army, but we found the Qi family army. So those soldiers are from the Qi family?"

"Could it be that Prime Minister Qi tried to frame the Regent, but ended up getting himself implicated?"

"It's true that you can know a person's face but not their heart. They said someone was going to rebel, but it turned out they found their own soldiers. It's really funny."

"This has caused a huge uproar in the city; Prime Minister Qi has really shot himself in the foot..."

"I noticed that Prime Minister Qi's expression changed when the Imperial Guards went to find troops. So that's what he meant..."

Prime Minister Qi felt like he was vomiting blood, but his face changed to one of agitation, not out of a guilty conscience!

As Yun Qingluo watched the winds slowly shift towards the prime minister, who was crying wolf, she felt she couldn't just sit back and add fuel to the fire.

So she said angrily and aggrievedly, "The Prime Minister is so eager to take the blame for my lord. Not only did he bring his civil and military officials to break into my estate, but he also thoroughly investigated the tenants and managers of the estate. Now he is even spreading rumors that my lord is hoarding troops and rebelling... Is the Prime Minister taking advantage of my lord's absence to bully us, a widow and her children?"

After saying that, he felt it wasn't enough, so he suddenly stood up, knelt down with a thud, and faced the emperor.

The Emperor was startled by Yun Qingluo's actions. Seeing Yun Qingluo crying so hard, his eyelids twitched violently.

She usually thinks she's very arrogant, but if she's ever willing to kneel before me, it's definitely not a good thing.

The last time she knelt down, she sent away the imperial concubine he cherished most.

This time, it's obvious who she wants to get rid of this time, even without thinking.

Yun Qingluo's sobs echoed three times and nine times, a tune that sounded desolate to anyone who heard it, "Your Majesty... someone is bullying your sister-in-law, waaaaah, won't Your Majesty do anything about it?"

Waaah! And what about your unborn nephew? If they succeed in framing him today, your nephew will be the son of a traitor!

"Your Majesty! You must do us, the orphan and widow, justice!"

Seeing Yun Qingluo's moving crying, the Emperor's head began to buzz. His voice was pale and weak as he said dryly, "Your Highness, please get up..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yun Qingluo cried even louder, causing the emperor's brows to twitch.

"Your Majesty, if I don't stand up for your brother and sister-in-law today, I will smash my head against this pillar outside and die, so that all the people of the world can see how the officials of Tianmo Kingdom bully the wife and children of the God of War, and how the prime minister of the country forces an orphan and a widow to their deaths..."

The emperor's expression changed upon hearing Yun Qingluo's words. The people were clearly more supportive of the regent, and if another incident involving lives were to occur, his reputation as emperor would certainly suffer.

The emperor's voice was urgent, "No!"

After saying that, he felt it would damage his image, so he said slowly, "If this matter is truly a misunderstanding, I will certainly stand up for you."

Yun Qinglu sneered inwardly. A misunderstanding? What a misunderstanding.

If things unfold as they plan, the regent will be branded as a traitor, and his descendants will be forever tainted by his infamy.

Now that the matter has been clarified, does he think he can just dismiss it as a misunderstanding?

dream!

"It seems that His Majesty does not care about his own nephew. My lord has been wronged, and I can do nothing about it. I might as well atone with my death... Let the people of the world seek justice for their war god."

After Yun Qinglu finished speaking, she got up and ran towards the pillar outside.

The emperor watched this scene with a cold eye, his fist clenching slightly inside his sleeve.

He wished she would die immediately, but he knew that if she did, it would truly be as Yun Qingluo had said: the entire court of civil and military officials had forced the Regent's wife and unborn child to their deaths.

At that time, one can imagine what will happen to his reputation as emperor...

"What are you all standing there for? Quickly help the princess to sit down and go fetch the imperial physician..."

The emperor's three quick utterances were a clear indication that he cared deeply for the regent's wife and children.

Although everyone understood the situation, they didn't show it, since they ultimately obeyed the emperor.
