Pei Changying's eyes were red and he gritted his teeth as he ordered, "Pass on my order. The Zhou family is plotting a rebellion. Immediately arrest everyone in the Zhou family, seal the city gates, and don't let any member of the Zhou family escape."
this......
The ministers looked at each other.
A civil servant who had a good relationship with the Zhou family bravely advised: "Your Majesty, please think twice. The matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet, so you cannot just make a direct conviction."
"The Zhou family has been loyal and brave for generations, and they are the veterans of three dynasties. If we rashly convict them, I'm afraid the people will be dissatisfied!"
Pei Changying scowled. "It's fine that Zhou Qichen hasn't attended court for a few days, but now he's secretly heading to Lingnan. Who would believe him if he said he had no ulterior motives? Are you planning to emulate Zhou Qichen and rebel?"
"Your Majesty, your heart towards me is clear to all heaven and earth. I absolutely do not have any intention of rebellion."
"Shut up! I think you have evil intentions. Anyone who dares to speak for Zhou Qichen again will be imprisoned and executed along with the Zhou family!"
Pei Changying was so angry about Zhou Qichen's betrayal that he lost his mind.
He was finally panicking.
He always felt that some things were becoming increasingly uncontrollable, developing less and less in line with his expectations, and beyond his control...
When half of the ministers in the court saw this, they all showed an expression of self-preservation on their faces.
Although Pei Changying had disappointed his ministers countless times and made them feel disheartened countless times, it was impossible to change the mindset that had been formed for thousands of years immediately.
Compared to submitting to a woman who is only fit to take care of her husband and children.
At this moment, they would rather support a tyrant.
The Prime Minister was startled and stepped forward to persuade him, "Your Majesty."
"Regardless of whether the Zhou family has rebelled or not, we must not act rashly at this time, lest rumors spread and public sentiment destabilize."
"I suggest that we immediately send people to Lingnan to search for sweet potatoes. If the princess intends to rebel, she will definitely need a large amount of food and fodder to support herself."
"As long as we find the sweet potatoes before the princess, her plan will fail!"
"Secondly, send another troop of soldiers to take the princess back to the capital for punishment. If she has no food, she will surely surrender."
Pei Changying's face turned pale and blue, and the atmosphere around him was gloomy and cold.
He was the emperor, a man whose wives and concubines were his gods! How could he use the knowledge taught by Gu Sang? Where would his dignity be?
But if Pei Weiqi really wanted to rebel, he would definitely go to Lingnan to look for sweet potatoes.
My eldest sister has great ambitions and aspirations. When my father was still alive, he said that if she were a man, she would be the most suitable candidate for the throne...
Just in case...
After thinking for a moment, Pei Changying, feeling very aggrieved, issued an order: "Where are the military commanders? Where is the Ministry of Works?"
"I order you to split into two groups."
"The Ministry of Works will immediately go to Lingnan to search for sweet potatoes, potatoes, and other things!"
"General, lead a thousand soldiers to Lingnan to capture the princess. If she dares to lead her troops in resistance, hmph! She will be executed for rebellion, without mercy!"
-
modern.
Gu Sang closed the other split screens, leaving only the live broadcast screen on the eldest princess' side.
The eldest princess had already brought a few craftsmen to wait on the spot as she instructed. A group of people stared at the live broadcast screen with amazement in their eyes.
Next to him stood Zhou Qichen, who was riding a horse at full speed.
Free from the control of the imperial court, Zhou Qichen was full of high spirits. Just standing there, he looked energetic and heroic.
"Sangsang, I've come to seek refuge with the eldest princess."
"Just as you said, Pei Changying is incompetent and foolish, and he killed loyal officials for his own selfish desires."
"If I continue to protect this tyrant, the fate of the Zhao family and the imperial physician's family may not be mine tomorrow."
"What's more, the late emperor once said that the eldest princess was intelligent and wise, and had the appearance of an emperor. It's a pity that she is only a woman. Recently, I have watched the live broadcasts of the future, and I think that women may not be incapable of it."
"Since you believe her, then I will believe you."
Zhou Qichen had considered a lot before coming here.
Now the people are in favor of her, and all the people in Plague City are sworn to follow the princess until death. Plus, with Gu Sang's full support behind the scenes, it's possible for her to become emperor.
If I could be the first person to follow her, I would definitely not treat him unfairly in the future.
After receiving Zhou Qichen's promise, Gu Sang felt relieved.
Her eyes revealed sincere admiration: "Brother Qi Chen, your choice is right. The world is constantly moving forward. The throne of the emperor should not be fixed on gender, but on ability and character!"
"When Empress Wu ascended the throne, she relied entirely on strategy. She had no popular support in front of her, and no millions of soldiers behind her, but she still fought her way through."
"The Princess has you, me, and the people's support, so why can't she?"
Yes, why not!
The only trace of uneasiness in Zhou Qichen's eyes completely disappeared and turned into determination.
Thousands of years of thought are deeply rooted in our bones.
How much courage does Zhou Qichen need to abandon the idea that only men can make decisions and dare to follow a woman?
He was the first general to follow.
But it’s definitely not the last one!
Gu Sang walked and talked with the people in the live broadcast, and soon arrived at the indoor fighting area.
The two instructors were standing not far away and talking, so Gu Sang walked over and introduced himself.
Gu Sang: "Hello, instructors. I'm Gu Sang, who made an appointment with you yesterday. Today I want to ask you about the manufacturing methods of some firearms."
The instructor frowned solemnly.
Modern technology has very strict control over firearms, and the manufacturing methods of firearms will never be leaked easily.
Even if the production method is obsolete, it cannot be leaked.
Seeing that the two instructors had misunderstood, Gu Sang explained, "I'm not trying to learn how to make modern firearms. It's just that I've always had a strong interest in history."
