When the emperor heard that Prince Liang's family had been poisoned, his face was filled with shock and disbelief.
A trace of doubt flashed through his mind, and he turned his head suddenly, staring at Concubine Ru with a sharp gaze!
"Could it be you?"
"You ordered your men to poison and kill the whole family of King Liang! Right?"
Concubine Ru raised her eyebrows slightly, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Hehe... I didn't expect that the emperor is not stupid! But even so, so what?"
However, all this was not done by Concubine Ru.
However, Concubine Ru knew that the real perpetrators of the murder must be Wei Ling and Ju An.
But at this moment, she no longer had the heart to defend herself.
Anyway, now she and the emperor have broken up, and the emperor was poisoned by her, so she is not afraid of the emperor misunderstanding her.
Concubine Ru gently moved her body and adjusted her sitting posture to make it more comfortable.
There is no way around it. A pregnant woman will feel very tired and her waist will be uncomfortable no matter how she sits.
The emperor used to care about her, but now...
Concubine Ru smiled bitterly in her heart, and then slowly said:
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being blunt. Some of my words may not be pleasant to hear, but they are the truth."
"You are so indecisive!"
"Princes like the King of Liang, the King of Qi, and the King of Yan, who have fiefs, real power, and troops, are all huge obstacles to your rule!"
"You should have made up your mind earlier and eradicated them all!"
"I am only doing this to ensure that your throne is as stable as Mount Tai!"
When the emperor heard this, he felt a chill in his heart.
Although he also wanted to reduce the number of tribes, except for the King of Yan, he only wanted to take away the military power of the others, such as the King of Liang and the King of Qi, and did not want to kill them.
After all, they are his uncles!
The emperor's face was frosty and he squinted at Concubine Ru.
"Where are the King of Qi and the King of Yan?"
"Did you also send someone to poison them?"
Imperial Concubine Ru didn't know what Wei Ling and the others had planned, but now she felt very happy when she saw the emperor's expression of wanting to eat someone, so she nodded.
"Yes! Isn't the emperor very happy?"
Outside the imperial study, a young eunuch secretly listened to the conversation inside and then left quietly.
At night, at Qian Liangchen's house.
Qian Liangchen, Mr. Xie, Xie Mingjue, Yu Jinzhi and others had a secret meeting in the study.
When Lord Xie heard the news from the palace, a light flashed in his eyes, "If what Concubine Ru said is true!"
"Then we can just use the death of King Liang to raise an army!"
Yu Jinzhi nodded.
"Indeed, in the eyes of outsiders, Concubine Ru's behavior is tied to the emperor!"
"If Concubine Ru killed King Liang, it would be the same as the Emperor killing King Liang!"
Xie Mingjue also said, "It's only been a year since the late emperor passed away, and the emperor has already killed his own uncle!"
"No matter where you say it, people will despise you!"
Qian Liangchen stroked his beard and frowned, "Should we wait a little longer until something happens to the King of Qi? Then let His Royal Highness the King of Yan take charge!"
Lord Xie thought about it and shook his head!
"It doesn't matter whether the King of Qi is dead or alive!"
"From Concubine Ru's tone, the King of Qi will definitely die!"
"Now, the emperor favors the treacherous concubine and persecutes other concubines!"
"Appoint treacherous officials and harm loyal officials!"
"Kill the emperor's uncle's entire family."
"And he wants to marry a married woman as his queen!"
"Force the princess to marry into the Jin dynasty! It won't take more than a few days before word spreads that the princess has died in the Jin dynasty!"
"Plus the snowstorm in the north!"
"There are floods in the south!"
“It can be said that people are living in misery!”
"The emperor's crimes are too numerous to list!"
"The reason the King of Yan needs to start a rebellion is already sufficient!"
Mr. Xie is actually still thinking about it.
Now, if there could be an extraordinary weather phenomenon, it would be even more perfect!
But this thing is something you can only encounter by chance!
Several people felt that what Lord Xie said made sense.
Xie Mingjue asked, "Father, then I will send a letter to King Yan and the others!"
Mr. Xie nodded.
"Okay, go and deliver it!"
Just a few days later, shocking news spread throughout the country.
As the rumors said, Princess Xinrong really embarked on the journey to marry into the Jin Dynasty.
But just when they were about to reach the imperial city of the Great Jin, they were brutally murdered by several princes of the Great Jin!
Princess Xinrong is dead!
This sudden bad news was like a thunderclap, leaving people dumbfounded and stunned.
The whole country was in uproar and astonishment!
Everyone was stunned in disbelief at first, and then overwhelmed by endless grief and anger.
The angry emotion swept over like a surging wave, quickly spreading to every corner.
The court officials who had been strongly opposed to the princess' marriage were filled with indignation. They wrote to the emperor without hesitation, pointing out again the many inappropriate aspects of the princess' marriage.
He was just short of openly cursing the emperor for being incompetent and tyrannical!
The ministers also pleaded with the emperor to immediately issue an order to launch a full-scale war and launch a retaliatory attack on the Jin Dynasty.
These ministers were very excited and spoke harshly, revealing their anger.
Even the emperor was a little overwhelmed.
Those ministers who had originally maintained a neutral stance could no longer sit still and stood up to express their support for a full-scale war against the Jin Dynasty.
They realized that this was no longer just a diplomatic crisis, but also concerned national dignity and national integrity.
