"By the way, summon all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital. If anything happens to the Princess Consort, let them bring their heads to me."
The following words were clearly addressed to the leader of the Imperial Guard, and Yun Qingluo felt extremely resentful.
Even after all this, he still wants to salvage his reputation as emperor.
Sure enough, before long, the Imperial Guards arrived in a grand procession, bringing with them all the imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital.
When Yun Qingluo saw the impressive array of imperial physicians, she couldn't help but smile.
By now, the news has probably spread throughout the streets that the dog emperor is quite good at playing the good guy.
But he didn't seem to realize that in the morning he had brought the entire court to the estate to confront the Regent's wife, and by noon he had summoned the entire Imperial Hospital.
Who was it for?
All those present and standing were grown men, so of course it was impossible for them to pay; it was definitely for her, the pregnant woman.
What will the people outside think? Heh...
He wanted to be a good person, but he lacked common sense and didn't know how he became emperor.
As Yun Qingluo had the imperial physician examine her pulse, she tearfully recounted the hardships the regent had endured.
Han Yixuan and his father chimed in, and several ministers from the Regent's faction stirred things up, ultimately turning the situation into one where the Prime Minister was amassing troops and rebelling.
Furthermore, the emperor specifically ordered the Imperial Guards to search the Prime Minister's residence, and they actually found something in the Prime Minister's study.
The already suspicious emperor was furious and immediately confirmed the prime minister's crime of treason.
Ultimately, the prime minister was dismissed, his home was confiscated, all his property was seized, and he was sentenced to exile three thousand li away.
Speaking of the idea of confirming the crime of treason, we have to thank Yun Yiyi from the previous life for it.
The item in the Prime Minister's study happened to be a golden yellow jacket embroidered with a five-clawed dragon.
In her previous life, Yun Yiyi deceived herself into placing some treasonous letters and items in her father's study to please him, which led to the execution of the entire Yun family.
After her rebirth, Yun Qingluo regretted more than once why she had trusted Yun Yiyi so much in her previous life.
Why didn't she open it and take a look? Even a quick glance would have prevented the Yun family from being...
Looking at the prime minister, whose official hat and robes had been removed and who was now in shackles, Yun Qingluo felt her hatred lessen.
In her previous life, she often listened to them and framed Mo Beichen.
Now that she has finally brought down the prime minister, the heavy weight on her heart has finally eased a bit.
Moreover, with the Prime Minister dismissed, only the Prime Minister Mu remains. In order to prevent the Mu family from becoming too powerful, the General's Mansion will definitely be kept in order to counterbalance the Mu family.
Therefore, the emperor will not touch the General's Mansion for the time being.
Yun Qingluo could finally relax for the time being.
However, Yun Qingluo knew that emperors had always been ruthless, but she did not expect the emperor to be so cruel.
The prime minister and his faction were all stripped of their official positions, their homes confiscated, exiled, or imprisoned and executed in the autumn.
The Third Prince was also caught in the crossfire, and many of his secrets were exposed, which angered the Emperor so much that he didn't even see him or give him a chance to explain before banishing him to the Imperial Clan Court, where he was never to be released again.
Now, the Third Prince's faction could no longer cause trouble.
The emperor flew into a rage, smashing many things in her room before returning to the palace, still seething with anger.
Looking at the broken cups and fine porcelain scattered on the ground, Yun Qingluo instructed An Jiu to make a list of compensations and present it to the Emperor in a grand manner, demanding that he pay for them.
An Jiu took a breath and asked the emperor for money. The princess is really brave.
But how could he possibly speak up? What if he got kicked out before even entering the palace?
Yun Qingluo told An Jiu that during the disaster relief efforts in the southwest, the Regent Prince had exhausted his family's wealth, and now his family was starving. Even the few remaining tea sets had been smashed by the Emperor. She begged the Emperor for some charity, otherwise the entire Prince's mansion would really have to beg on the streets.
Yun Qingluo then instructed him, "We're going there to pretend to be weak and poor. Under no circumstances should we clash with the palace guards. Just do as you're told... understand?"
An Jiu said cautiously, "If any of the palace guards try to hit me, I will immediately fall to the ground and pretend to be injured."
Seeing that An Jiu looked like a promising student, Yun Qingluo nodded in satisfaction.
He waved his hand and said, "There is no truth in the eyes of the common people. Whoever is weak is right. Go quickly and bring me some osmanthus cakes on your way back after you get the money."
Fortunately, Granny Gong was sent back to the Prince's Mansion by Yun Qingluo yesterday, otherwise she wouldn't have been able to eat the osmanthus cake she ordered on the street today.
It wasn't that I was worried about the palace maid being frightened; after all, how could the palace maid, who grew up in the palace, be frightened by today's scene?
However, if Granny Gong were there, she would definitely be hindered from wreaking havoc.
For example, if she rushed out and grabbed her tightly when she hit the pillar, the scene wouldn't be as exciting.
After all, having the emperor's men pulling them along makes the rest of the show easier to perform.
An Jiu looked at Yun Qingluo with admiration and promised to handle the matter perfectly.
Yun Qingluo raised an eyebrow, glancing at a departing figure in her peripheral vision, and let out a cold laugh.
It seems the tenant farmers the steward found weren't very reliable.
The Prince's residence also needs some reform.
As evening fell, the sunset painted half the sky red.
Yun Qingluo lay on the soft couch, staring blankly at the forsythia outside the window.
"Xiao Yi, tell me, I haven't even taught that scumbag a lesson yet, and he's already been imprisoned in the Imperial Clan Court. If the emperor hadn't destroyed all his power, I would have suspected that the dog emperor was protecting him in disguise."
Xiao Yi said speechlessly, "Back then, the Empress tried to frame you but ended up being framed by you, making her cuckold the Emperor, which led to the Emperor secretly getting rid of the Empress. You also got to satisfy everyone by getting rid of her mother."
Next, you dealt with the third princess and her younger sister. Although this wasn't exactly your achievement, it was close enough.
Just now, in less than a day, you eliminated the power of the Third Prince's maternal grandfather's family, and also had the dog emperor wipe out the Third Prince and the Prime Minister's related factions.
It's like killing someone by destroying their spirit. You didn't frame the Third Prince, you didn't poison him, and you didn't beat him to make him suffer. But now he has no chance of getting that position anymore, and he can't even think about it anymore.
For someone who craves power, this was probably worse than death. "The most poisonous heart is that of a woman; the ancients were indeed right."
Yun Qinglu rolled her eyes. "Is that how you use that word?"
An Jiu returned looking dejected.
Yun Tao looked at the several large boxes behind her, walked over and opened them, only to find them filled with dazzling gold. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "We've got the money, why are you frowning?"
An Jiu glanced at Yun Qingluo with resentment and said aggrievedly, "The idea that the Princess gave me was not used... and..."
An Jiu's expression changed slightly as she spoke, "That eunuch seemed to know why I was there. As soon as I finished speaking, he had several boxes of gold brought over, supposedly to appease the princess. But it looked like they had been prepared beforehand, waiting for us to ask for them. Your Highness, there's a traitor among us..."
After An Jiu finished speaking, he scanned the courtyard but found nothing unusual.
Yun Qingluo said calmly, "Yes, the Prince's estate should be properly reorganized. The palace's influence has infiltrated it. Achen was too busy before to manage it, but this Princess Consort has no choice but to take responsibility."
