Chapter 16 The Power of the Sword Immortal (2/2)



The empress stood up, looked at Qingniao and said, "Qingniao, take the body of the state master out and tell the Five Army Guards that the state master has been killed by me, and the Five Army Guards were bewitched by the state master. Now they must return to the Imperial City Department immediately, and they will be innocent!"

"yes!"

Qingniao clasped his fists in response, then walked quickly towards the body of the national teacher.

When passing by Su Lingfeng, Bluebird glanced at Su Lingfeng quietly, but seeing that Su Lingfeng was also looking at him, Bluebird hurriedly and nervously bowed to Su Lingfeng: "Senior!"

Then he immediately ordered his men to carry up the imperial teacher's body and hurried outside.

After the blue bird left, the empress came to Su Lingfeng and extended her hand to invite him: "Senior, please take a seat!"

That’s right, the empress wants Su Lingfeng to sit on the throne.

"Forget it, I won't sit down!"

Su Lingfeng waved his hand, and then sent a voice message: "Time is limited, you should solve the situation here as soon as possible. Before I leave, if you still have troubles that need me to solve, just let me know!"

"Yes, Senior!"

The empress then turned around, returned to the platform, and sat on the throne.

Looking at the ministers below, he said in a cold voice: "The Minister of Revenue and Envoy Cui Yu... participated in the rebellion of the Imperial Master. They will be arrested immediately and their property will be confiscated!"

The empress named nearly half of the ministers in the entire court, most of whom were the followers who had just expressed support for the imperial teacher.

If half of the ministers in the court were imprisoned and their property was confiscated, even if this was not an ordinary dynasty, it would cause turmoil, especially since so many positions were vacant all of a sudden, which could easily paralyze government affairs.

But Wu Zhaojun also has her own considerations. Her most urgent need now is to immediately obtain support points and have a more powerful trump card.

Only by confiscating more properties can she obtain more treasures. If she cannot deal with the Holy Land, she will die and her country will be destroyed. Killing half of the ministers will only cause turmoil in the court. She knows which is more important.

"Prime Minister, you must immediately draft a strategy for recruiting talented people and send it to all parts of the Great Zhou. During this special period, the court does not need to be bound by etiquette and rules when recruiting talents. The priority is to stabilize the court's political affairs as quickly as possible!"

Wu Zhaojun looked down and saw the middle-aged man standing in the first position on the right.

"Your Majesty, the country's crisis may not be here at this moment!"

The prime minister glanced at the side of the hall, at Su Lingfeng who was standing with a sword in his arms, then bowed to the empress and said, "Yes."

"I know the danger that the Prime Minister is talking about, and I have my own way to deal with it. Just do what I tell you to do!"

Wu Zhaojun waved her hand and said.

"yes!"

The Prime Minister bowed and accepted the offer.

In fact, there are still many things that need to be dealt with. Prince Rui needs to be dealt with, and the Five Military Guards also need to be purged, but now they can only step back.

At this time, Blue Bird strode in, bowed to the empress and reported: "Your Majesty, the five military guards have retreated."

"good!"

The empress nodded, then immediately stood up and instructed: "My ministers, there is no need to panic. The death of a national teacher will not cause chaos in the Great Zhou. Since you did not participate in the rebellion, there will be no rebellion. However, I still hope that you can show your loyalty."

The remaining ministers looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what Empress Yu meant.

"Most of you have families. If each of you presents me with some treasures, it will be regarded as a token of your loyalty to me."

Then the empress turned to look at Su Lingfeng and said, "Senior, I am going to confiscate the house now, please protect me for a while!"

"good!"

Su Lingfeng nodded.

Su Lingfeng could read the chats in the mutual aid group, and he also knew what the empress was thinking. She just wanted to confiscate the house and search for treasures in exchange for power points, and then summon a stronger self.

In the end, these supporting points will belong to him, so Su Lingfeng will be happy to go along.

Then, Wu Zhaojun took Su Lingfeng and some Phoenix Guards and headed quickly towards the Imperial Master's Mansion.

On the way, Su Lingfeng took the initiative to ask, "How powerful is your holy land? How far is it from here?"
