Chapter 6: The Tyrant Has a Brain
Eunuch Hai received the news from his subordinates, looked at the two people who were "busy" in the room, and did not dare to disturb them.
But the emperor said that if General Qin came back, he should report back immediately.
After thinking for a while, Eunuch Hai heard no movement in the room and called out softly.
"emperor……"
Seeing that there was no sound coming from the room, he spoke again.
"Your Majesty, General Qin is back!"
“…”
Mo Cangyan heard the voice, stood up from Feng Xiyao, glanced at her coldly, and walked out.
When he reached the door, he remembered the purpose of his coming here and turned around to look at Feng Xiyao who was slowly standing up.
"The Queen, please come with me!"
"I??"
Feng Xiyao didn't understand what the tyrant wanted to do next.
Eunuch Hai pushed the door open and saw her sitting on the ground with her clothes a little messy.
She hurriedly asked the palace maid to tidy up for her, and then followed the emperor with a reluctant look on her face.
Mo Cangyan walked very quickly. If it weren't for Eunuch Hai pulling and begging him, Feng Xiyao would have given up and left long ago.
Arriving at the gate of the Purple Gold Palace, Feng Xiyao felt the call of money inside. Walking in, the palace was indeed magnificent and luxurious to the point of inhumanity, with a majestic and domineering aura everywhere.
She curled her lips. They were obviously husband and wife, but why did they live in completely different places?
Then she looked at the dragon throne under the tyrant's butt. It was glittering with gold, and on the dragon head there was a luminous pearl bigger than her fist. Feng Xiyao drooled at the sight.
[Tyrant, when the original male protagonist pulls you down, I want to sit on that dragon chair too! ]
Mo Cangyan had gradually gotten used to hearing Feng Xiyao scolding him, but she really dared to say such shocking and life-threatening remarks.
After Feng Xiyao walked in, she saw a man with handsome features, sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes standing nearby. He looked to be around twenty years old, exuding the spirit of a young man full of vigor and vitality.
The man saw her and saluted her.
"Your Highness, I, Qin Fang, pay my respects to you, Your Majesty!"
Feng Xiyao carefully looked at the man in front of her.
[This is actually General Qin Fang! ]
Mo Cangyan frowned. Qin Fang was the son of General Qin and one of his capable generals now. How could he become a general?
Could it be that he will replace Lin Youquan and become the general of Daxia in the future?
When Mo Cangyan thought of this and was about to sigh at his own keen eye, Feng Xiyao spoke again.
[General Qin, this is one of the original male protagonist's brave and capable generals. Not only did he defeat Daxia, he was also a hero who broke through the gate of Daxia directly! ]
[If it weren't for him, the original male protagonist wouldn't have been able to unify Daxia so quickly! This guy is simply more awesome than the original male protagonist! ]
When Mo Cangyan heard this, his face instantly turned cold.
He had been quietly cultivating the Qin family to check and balance Lin Youquan, but he never expected that it would become a wedding dress for someone else.
If Qin Fang would be used as a weapon to destroy Da Xia in the future, then he wouldn't mind destroying the person he had trained with his own hands.
Just when Mo Cangyan was thinking about how to reasonably destroy the Qin family, Feng Xiyao continued.
[Thinking about it, the dead tyrant is still a bad person. The Qin family is obviously loyal, and Qin Fang's father is only loyal to him. He didn't expect Lin Youquan's deliberate provocation to make the tyrant suspicious of the Qin family. ]
[At that time, the Qin generals penetrated more than 200 kilometers into the enemy camp and took the head of the barbarian leader with great difficulty, successfully preventing Daxia from being invaded by the barbarians for the next few years.]
[He should have been a great hero praised by everyone in Daxia, but Lin Youquan was worried that his position as general was threatened, so he teamed up with his colleagues to impeach General Qin! ]
[The memorials all said that the Qin generals had betrayed the emperor's grace by joining the barbarians and uniting with them to persecute the people at the border!]
[The tyrant sent people to investigate. At that time, the Qin general had killed the barbarian leader and had not yet left the barbarian territory. In addition, some people at the border said that they saw him being taken in by the barbarians. When this news was passed back to Shangjing, everyone believed it to be true.]
[The Qin family was spurned by the common people in the capital. Qin Fang's mother could not bear the humiliation and hanged herself. The old lady was so angry that she followed her. Qin Fang was thrown into the sky prison, and no one knew who saved him in the end! ]
[The most tragic thing was the Qin general, who happily brought back the head of the barbarian leader, only to see the corpses of his entire family neatly hung on the city wall. He ran into the palace in grief to find the tyrant to reason with him, but was shot to death by random arrows before he could even get in front of the tyrant. From then on, his entire family was wiped out! ]
[Even though the tyrant eventually learned the truth and impeached the minister, nothing could be saved. Later, Qin Fang followed the original male protagonist and vowed to seek revenge on the tyrant.]
[So the tyrant really deserves to die. He was the one who pushed Daxia to fall. Otherwise, a good family, loyal to the emperor and the country, ended up like this. It's really sad! ]
After listening to Feng Xiyao's inner voice, Mo Cangyan became completely uneasy. Although he always thought it was normal for the emperor to be suspicious, he couldn't just wipe out the Qin family indiscriminately based on the impeachment of the ministers.
What's more, Qin Fang grew up with him and he knew his father's character well.
He frowned unhappily. Was he the person this damn woman was talking about?
Feng Xiyao didn't know that her words almost made the tyrant fall into self-doubt, and Qin Fang survived and died several times!
After the tyrant calmed himself down, he asked Feng Xiyao to find a place to sit down and signaled Qin Fang that he could speak.
"Your Majesty, from what I have heard, the people of Jiangzhou have not rebelled. Instead, they have been oppressed. Local officials often oppress the people and rape women, leaving the powerless people with nowhere to seek redress!"
"There was also the silver mine incident. An ordinary citizen accidentally discovered silver mines under his home. He wanted to report it to the authorities to get some money, but he didn't expect his entire family to be killed."
"When we arrived, the silver mine had already been mined and dozens of civilians had died inside. However, the local government said that it was the civilians who mined privately, which caused the cave to collapse and the people inside could not get out."
Qin Fang knew that Lin Youquan wanted to embezzle the silver mines, but it was not a good thing to bring this matter to the table, so it was enough for everyone to know it in their hearts!
After all, he had already handed it over, and there was no direct evidence to prove his intentions.
Feng Xiyao was a little surprised after hearing this. The original novel said that the tyrant ordered a suppression, and not so many things were discovered during the investigation.
Now it sounded like Mo Cangyan knew the truth, and she glanced at him with some sigh.
[The tyrant has grown a brain! ]
Mo Cangyan raised his eyes to look at the woman who was pretending to be dead below and gave her a cold look.
Facing the tyrant's cold gaze, Feng Xiyao knew that women in ancient times were not allowed to interfere in government affairs, so she immediately turned her attention to the food on the table.
After Qin Fang finished his report, he glanced at the empress sitting beside him. Concubines in the harem were not allowed to interfere in government affairs. What he was talking about now were all matters of the court, but the emperor actually let the empress sit aside, not caring whether she would listen or not.
Thinking back to what I had heard before, it was said that the Emperor did not like the Empress and had not even set foot in her bedroom in the three years since their marriage.
But he had clearly seen just now that when the two of them looked at each other, their eyes were about to tear. This showed that the rumors were indeed not to be believed. The Emperor was obviously very fond of the Empress, and he even brought her along when handling government affairs, and they could not be separated for a moment.
