"Your Majesty, you should know who Chu Yi is. If you want to stay with him as Chen Tang, something bad will happen..."
The magic mirror also continued to try to persuade:
"At present, if we want to successfully prevent Chu Yi from rebelling and causing the downfall of Da'an, the three strategies I gave you are the only possible way to succeed."
"And the success rate of Your Majesty personally committing himself to come forward should be completely feasible!"
This is not giving advice, it is simply wholeheartedly inciting.
Xiao Ling felt despair after hearing this.
But it was true that she had been lurking around Chu Yi for the past few days, and she felt that her life was at stake from the very beginning.
Later, for some reason, Chu Zei changed his temperament and started to be inexplicably gentle to me.
And then...I was pinched and hugged by Chu Ze.
But she didn't even have the courage to resist.
If this continues...
Xiao Ling no longer dared to imagine it.
But……
If I want to resolve the crisis, is the only way to turn hostility into friendship and marry Chu Yi?
Will marrying Chu Yi definitely meet my expectations?
Faced with the choice, Xiao Ling was a little hesitant.
In fact, she herself understood that since she learned about Chu Yi's growth experience, her attitude towards Chu Yi, the treacherous minister, had changed completely.
Rather than getting rid of him as soon as possible, she actually hoped that Chu Yi could understand her, accept her kindness, and be a loyal subject to the emperor.
But at the moment, it seems that there is no possibility of Chu Yi changing his mind.
That means only she, the empress, can take the initiative.
Can……
She wanted to take the initiative to show goodwill, but she didn't want to sell herself to that flatterer!
How could she have such a nerve?
Moreover, after spending the past few days together, she had a very complicated attitude towards Chu Yi, the minister.
I definitely can’t say I like it, but it just makes me angry.
This thief really will do anything to achieve his goal.
Xiao Ling was even worried about what a miserable end he would face if Chu Yi led the rebels to force him to abdicate one day.
After a long time, she looked at the direction of the magic mirror with a rather decadent look.
"Even with your all-powerful magic mirror, can't I resolve this calamity through other means?"
"This demon's methods are superficial and superficial. They only aid the best strategy, but they cannot change the overall situation."
The magic mirror's reply still seemed very desperate.
"After all, Chu Yi's personality allows him to be gentle with Your Majesty, but he will definitely not reveal any secrets of treason before meeting Your Majesty and add a trace of uncertainty."
"But if Chu Yi reaches unconditional trust in Your Majesty, then Your Majesty will no longer need to use any means to deal with him. All crises will be just struggles between husband and wife."
What the magic mirror said has reached the extreme.
There is no need to explain the meaning of this, those who understand will understand it.
Xiao Ling was stunned by the trick, and recalled every detail of her time with Chu Yi in her heart.
The ruthlessness of the traitor, his treason and his strategic planning, the madness of the traitor to achieve his goal,
And... from the time when the two of them went to Anyang City to secretly rebel, to the time when they returned, which was quite good along the way?
Xiao Ling finally sighed helplessly.
"I understand. I will think it through."
She said she was desperate, but more than that, she was so desperate that she wanted to cry.
In order to repay my father's cold-blooded heart, must I, as his daughter, use my own happiness as a reward to appease the hatred of the traitors?
If I had known this, why would I have become the empress?
It would be better for her to give the kingdom to a bunch of uncles next door and let her be her own Princess Taiping.
Maybe he would be favored by the Chu bandits and be taken as their consort.
The young couple loved each other very much, and finally succeeded in their rebellion. Then, in order to prevent the vassal kings from causing chaos, the rebel chose a win-win solution. She went from being a princess to an empress?
Could life be any better than it is now?
Xiao Ling was shocked by his own bold and absurd idea.
…
After learning about the magic mirror's new abilities, Xiao Ling quickly tried it out.
The next morning, she appeared at the morning court in the palace.
Because the Anyang incident had already revealed that the cabinet chief minister Sun Xian was guilty of dereliction of duty, at the morning court that day, officials from various departments, led by Chu Yi, united to impeach Sun Xian.
Sun Xian said nothing, having already made all the preparations.
He knew that from the moment Chu Yi came to power, his position as Prime Minister would have to be vacated sooner or later.
Even if the Anyang incident had not happened, it would still be no exception.
If Chu Yi is not eliminated, the situation in Da'an will only get worse.
But at this time Sun Xian said nothing.
He no longer cared about what happened next. After all, he was bound to fall today.
In serious cases, the offender will be imprisoned and punished; in minor cases, the offender will be demoted and exiled.
He knew that his career had already reached the end of the civil service except for the three highest officials, and he didn't care about how the court struggle would go.
Only after the ministers finished their impeachment did Xiao Ling look at Sun Xian with a gloomy face.
"Lord Sun!"
"What do you think about Anyang Prefecture Governor Liu An and the Bei'an Provincial Administration Commissioner suppressing the disaster in Bei'an Province and concealing the disaster, which led to the rebellion of the affected people?"
At this moment, Sun Xian also knelt down in the hall with confidence.
"I have failed to judge people and to govern effectively, which has led to disasters for the people and civil unrest in Anyang. I feel ashamed of your Majesty's cultivation and my position as the Prime Minister of the Cabinet. I... apologize!"
"Since that's the case, I will dismiss you from your position as Prime Minister. However, I will forgive you for your years of responsibility as Prime Minister. Instead, you will be appointed Anxi Zuo Cheng Zheng Shi (Left Minister of Anxi), to take up the position immediately. Do you have any objections?"
Seeing that Sun Xian had no intention of defending him, Xiao Ling spoke up.
The Anyang refugee rebellion did indeed make her, the emperor, very angry.
Although Chu Yi was closely related to the refugees' rebellion, it was ultimately due to Bei'an's audacity in deceiving the emperor and his superiors.
Liu An was a die-hard loyalist of Sun Xian, and Xiao Ling had no reason not to suspect that Sun Xian, the Prime Minister, was unaware of the Bei'an flood.
However, Sun Xian was the chief minister of the cabinet after all, and even if he was punished, he would still have too many concerns.
Removing his cabinet position and demoting him to the position of Anxi Governor was already a favor to Xiao Ling.
Following suit, Sun Xian kowtowed and thanked him:
"Your Majesty is wise and wise, and I have no complaints!"
Xiao Ling waved his hand, signaling Sun Xian to leave.
Then his gaze turned to Chu Yi, who was standing in front among the civil servants.
After thinking about it, she patted the dragon throne under her with a cold face.
"Chu Yi!"
"Liu An, the prefect of Anyang Prefecture, is so audacious and reckless. Besides Lord Sun, you, as the official in charge of the Ministry of Personnel, have failed to supervise strictly. Do you realize that you are to blame?"
Hearing that the emperor was shifting the focus of his anger towards himself, Chu Yi's expression also changed slightly.
Speaking of which, when it comes to supervising all officials, shouldn’t we first consider the responsibility of the group of censors in the Censorate?
