However, from Hu Tianyong's slightly throbbing veins and Xu Ming's tightly clenched hands, it was clear that they were also nervous.
They waited anxiously for what was about to happen at the White Tiger Hall.
The three words "White Tiger Hall" were right in front of them, getting closer and closer. Some people were excited, some were afraid, and most were numb. As those below, how could they possibly follow those in front of them step by step into an abyss they had never experienced before?
Finally, they arrived at the entrance of the White Tiger Hall, and all the guards knelt on the ground.
Lan Shanyang looked at the tightly closed door in front of him. He knew that without his order, no one could easily open the door.
He looked back at Lan Qingtian, who nodded firmly at him.
Lan Shanyang smiled slightly and waved to the guards: "Open the door!"
Immediately, Quan Jing shouted from behind, "Open—the central gate of the White Tiger Hall—"
The long, drawn-out sound was like the tolling of a death knell.
The doors to the White Tiger Hall were finally opened slowly under everyone's watchful eyes. Lan Shanyang looked inside and strode in first.
What happened next is clearly recorded in historical books.
"Upon entering the White Tiger Hall, the Emperor led the way, followed by his ministers. Suddenly, an assassin entered, intending to assassinate the Emperor. Fortunately, a prince stepped forward to save him, and he was unharmed. The scene descended into chaos. In the confusion, the traitor Xu Ming drew his sword and led his men in a killing spree! His heart was wicked, and he harbored the intention to assassinate the Emperor! The killing lasted for nearly half an hour, until finally everyone was brought to justice. Xu Ming was wounded on the spot and pinned to the ground, crying out for justice. The Emperor sternly questioned him, but he remained silent, and was charged with treason."
The moment Xu Ming was captured, Lan Shanyang quickly glanced at Lan Qingtian, who nodded, rushed outside the hall, and had someone release the signal that had been prepared beforehand.
Hu Tianyong knelt on the ground, looking at Xu Ming struggling and crying out for justice, and couldn't help but reveal a cold smile.
This was all his scheming, and it finally succeeded. Xu Ming will have no chance of escaping this time.
When Lan Jiayuan saw Xu Ming being treated as a traitor and pinned to the side, while the Emperor seemed unwilling to listen to anything, he crawled over on his knees and cried out, "Father, you are innocent! This was all arranged by Prime Minister Hu!"
As she spoke, Lan Jiayuan spilled out everything Xu Ming had instructed her to say, just like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
Of course, these were just the things that Lan Linxue and the others had arranged to tell Xu Ming.
After Lan Jiayuan finished speaking, he took out Shi Mengjian's account book and presented it directly to the Emperor.
"Father, you see, the Prime Minister framed Lord Xu precisely because of this! And today's assassins were all disguised by Lord Hu's men. You'll know if you ask!"
Lan Shanyang took the ledger from Jing Quan's hands with a cold expression and looked at it once. Her expression became even more unpleasant. She turned to look at Hu Tianyong, but did not ask a single question.
Instead, he waved to Lan Qingtian beside him: "Go! Ask those people if they were indeed sent by Hu Tianyong?"
"yes!"
Lan Qingtian gave a low reply and then quickly walked outside.
Those people outside had poison in their mouths, but the guards had their mouths tightly clenched, so they couldn't commit suicide at all.
I asked several people, but no one answered.
Lan Qingtian immediately frowned: Hu Tianyong can train such a ruthless person? This is not something an ordinary person can do.
Moreover, looking at the fierce eyes of these people, they don't seem like soldiers at all. Their aura seems to be very similar to that of the foreigners.
You see, Lan Qingtian has been leading troops for quite some years, and he knows very well what kind of looks his soldiers have in their eyes.
Such a ferocious look is not like that of an ordinary person; even if the whole family were dead, they wouldn't look like that.
Because hatred can vary depending on the place.
After thinking for a moment, Lan Qingtian immediately gave an order to his subordinates: "Strip all the clothes off these people!"
"yes!"
Immediately, a large group of people went up and stripped everyone of their clothes off.
They were all clean, without a single trace.
Only in the last small one did I seem to see something.
Lan Qingtian immediately went over, pressed the person to the ground, and examined them closely. Sure enough, there was a faint, almost disappearing mark on the shoulder.
Lan Qingtian recognized the symbol; it was the unique symbol of Tuotuo's army.
They are all Tuotuo's people.
Lan Qingtian's expression immediately changed. Without saying a word, he walked to the main hall and whispered a few words in Lan Shanyang's ear.
Lan Shanyang's expression turned even more unpleasant.
At this moment, Lan Xiuyuan and Lan Jiayuan were arguing on the ground, each seemingly trying to save the most important person in their lives.
Lan Shanyang looked at the two of them and suddenly shouted, "Guards! Lock Hu Tianyong and Xu Ming in the Imperial Prison at the same time. No one is allowed to enter without my decree!"
After saying that, Lan Shanyang didn't look at anyone again, turned around and strode out.
When Hu Tianyong heard Lan Shanyang's order, he suddenly looked up at Lan Shanyang, and then, as he was being forced past Lan Xiuyuan, he quickly whispered something in his ear.
Lan Xiuyuan seemed to be stunned for a moment when he heard those words, and Hu Tianyong was pulled out completely at that moment.
All the court officials were stunned by this sudden change and stood frozen in place, completely unsure how to react.
She handled matters in the palace with great efficiency and efficiency, and outside the palace, Lan Linxue was even more decisive.
