At this moment, the officials looked at Suman's back and felt that this princess was not as useless as they had imagined.
Soon, there was a knock on the door outside. The sound was so loud that it made people's hearts tremble.
"Bang."
With a loud bang, the door panel shattered into pieces.
Soldiers filed in, filling the hall to the brim.
Leading the group were Prime Minister Yao and Concubine Li, who was holding a child. The child had been frightened by these incidents and was crying non-stop, his cries echoing throughout the hall.
Although the prince was being pointed at by countless sharp blades, he remained fearless and asked, "Prime Minister Yao, what do you mean by this?"
Prime Minister Yao actually bowed to the Crown Prince and said respectfully, "I heard that Yu Yuanbai was rebelling, holding the ministers hostage, and trying to kill the emperor, so I came to rescue him."
When Su Man heard this, she knew what Yao Xiang was planning. He simply wanted to put all the blame on the Yu family.
He surrounded the palace under the pretext of purging the emperor's side, and told the outside world that the emperor and the crown prince had been murdered, and then he took advantage of the situation to send his sister's child to the throne, and used the emperor to control the princes.
"presumptuous!"
The emperor, surrounded in the center, shouted, "You came from a humble family, and I promoted you all the way to become the Prime Minister, yet you are still not satisfied? Are you worthy of my trust in you?"
The ministers all stepped aside so that the emperor's anger could be directed accurately at Prime Minister Yao.
Yao Xiang bowed and said, "I am grateful for the emperor's grace, so I have prepared poisoned wine to preserve the emperor's body."
Su Man suddenly shouted, "Your Majesty, be careful."
The next second, a sharp arrow broke through the air and headed straight for the emperor.
Fortunately, Su Man had reminded them in advance, and the Royal Guards were prepared and blocked the arrows with their shields.
There was a flash of unwillingness in Prime Minister Yao's eyes. He was just a little bit away from hitting the target. As long as the emperor died, those ministers would lose their backbone and this war could be won without a fight.
He turned his gaze to Su Man, "Haha, the Crown Princess is indeed smart, no wonder she is favored by the Crown Prince."
Su Man also smiled and said, "Of course, he can't compare to Prime Minister Yao. Although he has evil intentions, he still wears this skin and pretends to be a human being every day."
Yao Xiang's mask, which had remained unchanged for thousands of years, began to crack. He raised his voice and said, "Nie You, aren't you still brooding over Yu Man's remarriage? Today I'll give you a chance. Kill her."
