"Okay." Jiang Tian held Qian Renxue's slender hand and gave the little girl a deep kiss on her cherry-like lips.
For a woman to become emperor, she has to pay a heavy price.
If the country were handed over to this young girl to govern, all the civil and military officials would bully her.
Since this young girl is willing to relinquish her power, why not do it?
The little girl gently closed her eyes, enjoying Jiang Tian's affectionate kiss.
After a cup of tea, the young girl slowly opened her eyes. Qian Renxue gently leaned against Jiang Tian's chest: "Can I trust you?"
"Of course, besides me, who else can you trust?"
"Jiang Tian, I hope you won't let me down." Empress Qian Renxue once again gave Jiang Tian a deep kiss.
…………
Above the main hall of the imperial palace.
Jiang Tian walked to the door.
"We have come to greet Lord Jiang." The crowd stepped forward one after another.
"Open the door." Jiang Tian snapped his fingers at the Imperial Guards on guard.
The Imperial Guards strode forward and unlocked the heavy lock on the main hall of the palace.
The heavy door slowly opened.
The civil and military officials in the royal palace all stood up from the ground.
The palace hall reeked of urine.
Mixed with the stench of urine were the smells of food, feet, and sweat.
The combination of these smells was nauseating.
Jiang Tian took out a handkerchief, covered his nose, and went inside.
Li Yuanba, Ling Yunzhi, Ling Yunxiao, and Chen Feilong followed closely behind.
When the civil and military officials saw Jiang Tian enter, they were about to complain when they saw Li Yuanba.
Li Yuanba possessed extraordinary abilities.
They witnessed Li Yuanba throwing the beacon fire of Liancheng into the large bronze cauldron.
These civil and military officials also knew that it was Li Yuanba who carried the bronze cauldron weighing tens of thousands of catties from near the Imperial Study to the main hall of the palace.
They all wilted as soon as they saw Li Yuanba.
"Lord Jiang, what are you trying to do?" Zhou Jian stepped forward quickly. "How much money did we embezzle? How many lives did we disregard? What illegal things did we do? We've already confessed everything clearly."
"Sir, when will you release us?"
"Sir, what do you want us to do? We've done everything, you can't break your promise."
"You promised to let us out."
Many people went crazy and tried to run outside.
However, before they could escape, Li Yuanba's two large hammers struck down several of them, one after another.
These ministers were all smashed into mincemeat and died on the spot.
The others immediately became terrified upon seeing this, not daring to utter a single word.
"Everyone, I'm here today to let you out." Jiang Tian gave the crowd a cold smile.
When everyone heard that they were to be allowed to rush out, they were all extremely excited.
"Thank you, sir," everyone said in unison.
"Guards, put them in shackles, put them in prison carts, and parade them through the streets for three days."
The entire city must know the countless crimes these scoundrels have committed.
"The people are living in such misery. It's all their fault."
"promise……"
These civil and military officials were just happy, but when they heard that they were to be paraded through the streets for three days, they immediately panicked.
Before they could argue, the Imperial Guards rushed forward and put shackles on them.
Only then did everyone realize what was happening, and they all started cursing.
Slap him in the face.
Before these guys could even utter a few curses, their faces were slapped until they were as big as pig heads.
All civil and military officials were escorted out.
They were put into a prison van.
The Imperial Guards, the Embroidered Uniform Guards, and the Black Ice Guards are working together.
A long line of prison vans stretched out.
Someone was clearing the way with gongs.
Some people even publicly revealed the numerous crimes they had committed, one by one.
Only then did the people realize the truth.
Why did the imperial army, despite its bravery and skill in battle, suffer repeated defeats?
Why is it that the imperial court has so much grain, yet cannot provide even a single grain to relieve the people?
It turns out these beasts were the ones who did it.
"Heaven has eyes, letting Lord Jiang manage these scoundrels."
"This Lord Jiang is truly our lucky star. He just distributed grain to us yesterday, and today he has already pulled out all these parasites for us."
"You all don't know, do you? When Lord Jiang was in Jizhou, that was truly spectacular."
"Lord Jiang is like a god descended from heaven; there is nothing in this world that Lord Jiang cannot accomplish."
"Jizhou has become the most prosperous province in our Great Xia Dynasty. With Lord Jiang in the capital, good days are coming for us common people."
The onlookers praised Jiang Tian highly.
These common people, however, hated these civil and military officials to the core.
Cartloads of gold and silver were confiscated from the homes of these civil and military officials.
The gold and silver extracted from the homes of these civil and military officials alone took more than 1,000 large horse-drawn carriages to transport for several days.
In addition, there are a large number of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, silks and satins, and jewelry and jade.
These are priceless.
Everyone was furious as they watched the civil and military officials and their families being escorted onto the prison van.
It was precisely because of the outrageous actions of these scoundrels that the people suffered heavy casualties.
Most of the people lost their homes and lives, and the scenes were truly heartbreaking.
"Hit him."
“Kill them.”
"We can't let these bastards get away with this. If it weren't for them, we wouldn't be in such a terrible state."
The crowd quickly became restless.
Many people rushed forward and threw anything they could pick up at the people in the prison van.
