Dugu Xin glanced at the night sky and spoke with a faint smile.
"The night view tonight is nice, but it's a pity that it lacks color."
"Han Yu, go check on the situation in the army. If all the rebels have been captured, go directly to the Sun family."
Han Yu did not hesitate and immediately took people to do it.
Dugu Xin sat in the study waiting for news from all parties.
"Report, the Qin family and other imprisoned court officials and their families have been rescued."
"Report, all the rebel generals in the army have been executed."
"Report, the Sun family is in chaos, the Prime Minister ran away with his son."
"Report, the entire Sun family has been arrested, and Prime Minister Sun is outside the palace."
Dugu Xin did not sleep all night, and it was not until dawn that Prime Minister Sun was captured by them.
Looking at the father and son of the Sun family carrying large bags of gold, silver and jewelry in front of him, a look of disdain flashed across Dugu Xin's face.
"Being bewitched by idiots like you is the greatest shame of my life."
"However, since you are so deliberate, I must think carefully about how to deal with you."
Prime Minister Sun knew that he would die today, so he no longer hesitated and started cursing at Dugu Xin.
"You ungrateful villain, what did you promise me in the first place?"
"Now, before you even stabilize the government, you're already thinking of getting rid of me. Shouldn't I be dealing with you?"
"And my daughter, she works so hard..."
Without waiting for Prime Minister Sun to finish speaking, Dugu Xin kicked the man over.
He looked at the father and son fiercely, and then said in a cold voice.
"I will give you one chance. Only one of you can survive. You choose."
"Han Yu, untie their ropes. I want to see what choice they will make."
Han Yu casually pulled out a knife and quickly cut the ropes on their hands.
Prime Minister Sun’s first reaction was to pounce on Dugu Xin, shouting loudly as he did so.
"Don't even think about separating us, father and son. Son, let dad control him. Leave now."
Dugu Xin didn't even look at Prime Minister Sun who was pulling his legs, because just when he hugged Dugu Xin's thigh, his son behind him had already moved.
Feeling the sharp pain in his back, Prime Minister Sun looked at his son holding the knife in disbelief.
"Why?"
His son threw away the knife in his hand and begged for mercy while crying.
"Dad, my son is still young. I don't want to die."
"Dad, you are so old now, you will definitely not blame your son, right?"
"Dad, if my son is alive, he can leave a descendant for our Sun family."
"Your Majesty, my father is dead. Please let me go. All this was done by my father. It has nothing to do with me."
"Your Majesty, please, let me go, I beg you, I am innocent."
Dugu Xin looked at Prime Minister Sun, who was disheartened, with a smile, and then said in a cold voice.
"Throw him out of the palace. As for what happens next, that will depend on his own ability."
When the son of the Sun family heard this, he no longer cared about his father's life or death.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you, Your Majesty."
After shouting, he ran out of the hall without waiting for Han Yu to throw him.
Prime Minister Sun glared at Dugu Xin intently, the hatred in his eyes as real as substance.
"What? Prime Minister, you still want to kill me? Unfortunately, you no longer have the chance, and neither do your Sun family."
"Come here, pull this dirty thing out, don't let it dirty my palace."
Han Yu waved his hand, and several guards came in and dragged out Prime Minister Sun, who was not yet dead.
The night passed quickly, and the people still didn't know what their country had just experienced.
Few people know how many people have lost their lives in corners where no one can see.
When it was daybreak, Dugu Xin sat on the high seat in the council hall again.
Looking at His Highness's civil and military ministers who were somewhat listless, Dugu Xin's cold voice finally rang out.
"I'm sorry to have frightened you all these past few days, but now everything is over. The traitors have been brought to justice."
"However, in order to punish the traitors and to serve as a warning to the world, I have decided to parade all those involved in the rebellion through the streets of Caishikou for three days before taking any further action."
Before Dugu Xin could ask everyone what they thought, all the court officials below had already knelt on the ground and started shouting loudly.
"Your Majesty is wise."
After the court officials shouted, Dugu Xin calmly walked down the hall and came to the crowd.
Then, under everyone's gaze, he personally walked to the side of Qin Taifu and bowed.
Taifu Qin was startled and dodged quickly. Dugu Xin didn't care and just made the announcement in front of everyone's astonishment.
"The Qin family has made great contributions in rescuing me this time. I am deeply grateful. This gift today is well deserved by the Grand Tutor."
"When I was poisoned and unconscious, I was grateful to the Queen for taking good care of me."
"Teacher Qin and his wife have taught their daughter well. Today, I will not only pay my respects to you, but I will also reward you with a golden medal of immunity from death."
"From now on, as long as you haven't committed any serious crime of treason, you can use this gold medal to be exempted."
When Qin Taifu heard this, he immediately knelt down happily to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."
Dugu Xin personally helped the man up, then walked back to the platform and rewarded all the meritorious officials one by one.
Those who had been wanted to be dealt with for a long time, as well as those who had contact with the Sun family openly or secretly, were all pulled out.
This morning court session was the longest since Dugu Xin ascended the throne, and the most matters were dealt with.
When all the arrangements were made one by one, the court officials suddenly became a little uneasy.
