Ying Xixi fully supported it and spoke firmly.
The smile in Xiao Xieyun's phoenix eyes deepened, and he hugged her tightly.
"Xixi, I know that you are the only one in this world who supports me without any reason."
Only you are willing to believe me.
Ying Xixi patted Xiao Xieyun's back soothingly.
"Okay, let's take our time and plan. It's getting late, so let's serve the meal first.
Do you still need to go to the Imperial Study to handle government affairs tonight? If not, how about you help me loosen the soil in the vegetable garden after dinner?"
Ying Xixi changed the subject.
"Okay, I'll accompany you."
Ying Xixi has already started to tidy up her small flower garden and vegetable garden.
When Xiao Xieyun knew that she wanted to grow vegetables and flowers in the backyard of Xiyue Palace, he ordered people to expand the area of the backyard.
Half of it can be used as a small vegetable garden, half as a small flower garden, and there is also a corner that can be used to raise chickens, ducks and geese.
One was the king of a country, and the other was the only imperial concubine in the palace. These two noble people were carrying shovels and loosening the soil in the garden regardless of their status.
The eunuch Fuquan, who had served Xiao Xieyun for many years, had never seen such a scene.
He was shocked and moved at the same time.
Your Majesty has finally come to the end of all hardship.
I finally met the person I want to spend my life with.
If it were in the past, no woman could make His Majesty do this or that, let alone get close to His Majesty and would never be in His Majesty's eyes!
Your Majesty and the Imperial Concubine are such a perfect match, hehe.
Eunuch Fuquan stood there with his mouth bared and grinning foolishly.
........
Xiao Xieyun spent a few more days and finally cleared up the court.
Because several officials were thrown into jail, the rest of the officials were in danger and trembling with fear. They did not dare to do anything rashly for fear of being targeted by Xiao Xieyun.
But this actually makes it easier for Xiao Xieyun to investigate and screen.
Because the guilty person has already revealed his true colors.
Xiao Xieyun used thundering means to order his men to capture the last fish that had escaped the net in the court.
However, these four fish were not spies from any country, but corrupt officials who had accepted bribes and even embezzled and forged the imperial court's disaster relief funds and grain!
Of course, there are still some corrupt officials among the remaining officials who have done bad things.
Xiao Xieyun originally wanted to clean them up together.
But if they were all wiped out at once, there would be few people left in the court who could be used.
After hesitating for a long time, Xiao Xieyun decided not to touch those termites for the time being.
I plan to train capable people first, and then continue to clean up the court when the time is right.
The news that Xiao Xieyun had thrown four "innocent" officials into jail naturally spread quickly out of the palace and caused a sensation in the capital.
Xiao Xieyun did not send anyone to deal with these rumors. He just waited for the rumors to intensify before clarifying them.
Three days later, it was the day when Xiao Xieyun would execute the ten officials.
The location is still at Caishikou outside the imperial palace.
That day, Xiao Xieyun, like last time, brought Ying Xixi to a window seat in a private room on the second floor of a teahouse opposite Caishikou.
The area around Caishikou was packed with people who came to watch.
Ying Xixi glanced down and saw a dense mass of heads.
I'm almost getting intensive phobia.
Under the window, you can still hear the people's discussions.
"Ten officials! What on earth is this tyrant? Could it be that all ten officials have committed a crime?"
"What else? If they hadn't committed any crime, why would they arrest these ten people for no reason?"
"But these are ten officials! Even the Grand Tutor is among them! What crime could the Grand Tutor have committed?"
The man in white on the side laughed, "Don't tell this to anyone else, it will make people laugh.
There are so many crimes that the Taifu could have committed. There is nothing that no one can't do, except what we can't think of.
The higher the official position, the more bad things you can do!
Take the Zhao family for example. Both the father and son of the Zhao family were prime ministers!
His status can be said to be second only to one person and above everyone else!
As a result, they actually collaborated with the enemy and committed treason! They even wanted to rebel!
Why don't you think about what might happen if the Grand Tutor is also collaborating with the enemy and committing treason?"
The middle-aged man beside him heard this and asked, "But hasn't there been a rumor these days that that person is seeking revenge for personal gain?
Otherwise, why didn't they punish these officials earlier, but at this moment?"
"Taking revenge for personal gain?" The man in white laughed, "That person's position is so high, if he wanted to kill someone, would he need to mobilize so many people?
He could have ordered the assassination of those ten officials, or created some unexpected incident.
Why did he choose to execute these ten officials in front of everyone?"
When the man in white said this, the people around him were speechless for a moment.
"Everyone can think back, have there ever been any officials who disappeared or died suddenly for unknown reasons?
Nothing like this has happened since he took the throne, right?
Even if we were discussing that person openly here, no royal guards would suddenly appear and kill us.
I just don’t understand how the name of that tyrant came about!
How strange, how strange! "
The people around looked at each other in confusion.
Most people are actually just fence-sitters. They believe what others say and follow their lead. Just like three people make a tiger, they just follow the crowd.
As they talked about it, everyone thought that this was the truth, but forgot to think about whether it was the truth.
Now that the man in white has pointed it out so bluntly, everyone has forgotten how to think.
Ying Xixi supported her chin and listened to everything that was said next.
