Chapter 141 Out of Control
Is this how she talks to the emperor?
The little brat is becoming more and more arrogant because of his favor and is becoming more and more unruly!
Emperor Liang's eyes were bloodshot, and the murderous aura around him seemed to rise several feet high.
Although Xiao Tangbao was afraid, he still continued to stare at him angrily and stubbornly...
Was she wrong?
If he thinks someone is wrong, he can order people to investigate, but he cannot kill them directly!
Some people are so pitiful. After a lot of effort, someone in the clan becomes rich, but they don't take him with them when everyone else prospers. Then, when they are beheaded, the whole family is taken into the blame!
Anyway, killing at will is wrong!
But...
The emperor's eyes are so scary...
“Wow—!!”
The little guy was frightened and cried by Emperor Liang.
She put her hands on her hips, tilted her chubby little face upwards, and tried to open her eyes wider to give herself more strength.
"I'm warning you, don't look at me!"
"nest……"
"I'm scared!"
"Woooo ...
"I'm going to find my great-grandmother~~"
The little guy turned around and left without hesitation.
A good man never suffers a loss in front of him!
The emperor is still holding a knife in his hand!
Tangbao gives it to me!
There's blood dripping down from it...
It’s horrible!!
Tang Bao also has nine clans. Tang Bao can't bear to leave her father, sister Chuntai, and uncle Chengfeng to be buried with her!
Looking at the little back of the milk ball twitching, Yun Xingxu's heart was suddenly shocked.
He even lost his only friendship today... He must not let his mother leave him again!
He lowered his eyes to look at the blood-stained long knife in his hand, threw it away suddenly, rushed forward, grabbed the back of Xiao Tangbao's collar, and picked up the little boy.
"run?"
"I don't know when you became so close to Prime Minister Zhao."
(°°)
Tang Bao, whose little arms and legs were desperately kicking in the air, was suddenly stunned when he heard this.
What the hell?
Then Tang Bao stopped crying.
"Granduncle, you misunderstood. Tang Bao and the Prime Minister don't have a good relationship! The Prime Minister doesn't like Tang Bao!"
Emperor Liang: “…”
"What a proud man Prime Minister Zhao is!"
"If they're not on good terms, would he let a little girl ride on his neck and act so unruly?"
Emperor Liang threw little Tangbao into Shen Ying's arms and glared at Zhao Kangnian with a cold look.
Even if he doesn't want to sit on the throne anymore, he can give it to any of his unreliable sons, but never to Prince Qing!
Is it this old man's turn to jump around all day?
Not only would he not allow Yun Che to covet his throne, but when he passed away, he would also let Yun Che be buried with him!
Zhao Kangnian knelt on the ground, sweating profusely.
Given the Emperor's temperament, shouldn't he be launching a massacre and conducting a thorough investigation of the inner palace? Why did this happen to him?
This Princess Zhaoning is indeed a variable...
Can’t keep it!
The Emperor was always suspicious. How could he explain this to the Emperor so that he would believe that he had no intention of currying favor with Prince Qing? How could he avoid causing more trouble for himself?
"Your Majesty, this old minister..."
"Granduncle, the Prime Minister really doesn't like Tang Bao. It was Tang Bao who threatened..."
"Please be careful with your words, Princess!" Zhao Kangnian interrupted hastily, his expression unprecedentedly flustered. "Your Majesty, how can a mere three-year-old girl be a threat? This old minister only thinks Princess Zhaoning is adorable, and that's why..."
"You're lying!" Naituanzi was also unhappy. "Deceiving the emperor is a capital crime. Be careful, my uncle will kill all your clans!"
"Where's Pei An? Where's Eunuch Pei An?"
"The servant is here!"
Pei An, who had been silently praying that no one could see him, almost fainted from anger. He closed his eyes tightly, then walked respectfully to the emperor and saluted.
"Your Majesty, the princess was initially riding on this servant's neck, but the Prime Minister suddenly and inexplicably angrily berated the princess, saying she was being unbecoming."
"The young princess was furious. She raised her hand and slapped the prime minister hard, then said to him, 'Say...'"
Pei An's eyes were evasive, and Emperor Liang went up and kicked him.
"Hurry up and tell me! If there's even a hint of falsehood in what you say, I'll kill you!"
"Your Majesty, please spare my life! Your Majesty, please calm down..."
Pei An knelt on the ground and shouted at the top of his voice: "Princess Zhaoning said to the Prime Minister at that time, I know you have a concubine outside! Prime Minister, my Lord Prime Minister, immediately glared at her and shouted, you are right!"
"The young princess asked the prime minister again, 'Is the concubine a boy or a girl? How old is she this year?' Perhaps the prime minister was furious... He shouted without thinking, 'She's four years old, what's wrong?'"
"Then, the Prime Minister took the initiative to lift Her Highness the Princess off this servant's neck..."
Most of the people present were stunned and looked up at Zhao Kangnian.
Doesn’t he consider himself a famous and upright person?
How could he do such a despicable thing at his age? No wonder he was willing to let the little princess ride him!
Some officials who admired him also instantly felt disgusted with him.
…
Pei An was flustered and kowtowed as he said, "Many people around here saw and heard it at the time. I have never lied! Your Majesty, please understand!"
"..." Emperor Liang looked at Tang Bao in disbelief, "How did you know that Prime Minister Zhao had a concubine?"
Little Tang Bao blinked his eyes and said seriously, "Among the kids who bullied Tang Bao today, there was the concubine of the Marquis of Wuxin's mansion..."
"Tang Bao thought 'concubine' was a bad word and just wanted to annoy the Prime Minister, but he actually admitted it."
Emperor Liang nodded.
He understood that Zhao Kangnian was feeling guilty. He must be afraid that Tang Bao would speak without restraint and reveal his secrets in public, so he had to endure the humiliation.
This made him even more curious. What kind of secret could make Prime Minister Zhao, who valued his reputation so much, willing to humiliate himself in front of others?
Youyou glanced at everyone, and Emperor Liang's lips curled slightly. He held the little girl in his arms and asked softly, "Tangbao, what other secrets do you know about the Prime Minister? Tell us so that everyone can hear it."
The little guy shook his head, "People should be honest. Tang Bao has already promised the Prime Minister that he will help him keep the secret."
???
Zhao Kangnian's face turned black. This little girl hadn't spoken to him much along the way! What nonsense was she talking about?
"That's it..." The little fellow stared at Emperor Liang without blinking, faintly excited, "My great-uncle asks the Prime Minister a question. If he doesn't answer, it's contempt for the emperor! If he lies, Tang Bao will make his secret public!"
That’s a good idea!
Emperor Liang's mood instantly improved a lot.
It is undeniable that Zhao Kangnian does have the talent to govern the country. He has relied on him over the years, but he also hates him.
He liked to see him lose control, liked to see him make a fool of himself, liked the way he looked so arrogant yet he still had to crawl at his feet.
To be honest, as long as Zhao Kangnian does not have the intention of helping others to seize his throne and does not over-autocratize his power to shake his imperial throne, Yun Xingxu can turn a blind eye to the dirty things he does to him.
He didn't think Zhao Kangnian would answer every question, but he didn't want to give up the opportunity to tease him.
But what can I ask?
After a long time, Emperor Liang thought that he was in a terrible mood today, so he might as well let this old man praise him a few words.
"Prime Minister, what do you think of my performance as an emperor? If you were asked to choose, who do you think is worthy of sitting on the dragon throne in Daliang?"
Everyone: ???
What? The Emperor really still favors Prime Minister Zhao!
Tsk! Forget about asking anything. The Prime Minister is so eloquent, you might even get a reward later!
What can be done? Prime Minister Zhao is a man of state, capable of governing the country with the power to hold up the heavens and control the seas!
Besides, the emperor has been protecting him for a long time. The whole world knows that he instigated his eldest daughter to confuse the royal bloodline, which harmed Prince Qing terribly!
But what was the result? Didn't the matter just end in vain?! In the end, he was still the high and mighty Prime Minister!
Alas! Who made us have such an emperor... As long as the country is not in chaos, let it be whatever it wants!
Zhao Kangnian breathed a sigh of relief, and repeated those compliments twice in his mind, making sure that they were neither flattering nor inappropriate. He said aloud:
"Your Majesty is as lazy as rotten wood, and as close to flatterers as to festering a tumor. He is cruel and bloodthirsty, treacherous and cruel. He is at the mercy of others and has no firm opinions... He truly deserves the word 'incompetent'!"
"Your Majesty, for selfish gain, has not hesitated to bring disaster upon the nation and its people... He has long been detested by Heaven and resented by the people!"
"Fearing that the country is about to fall, I dare to speak frankly. Even if a toothless child were to sit on the throne, with capable ministers like us assisting us, Daliang would surely prosper and regain its prosperity!!"
Zhao Kangnian spoke passionately, spit flying everywhere... Only after he finished speaking did he realize that his words were not what he meant, and what he said was completely different from what he thought!
His pupils suddenly shrank, and the blood instantly drained from his wrinkled face, and he collapsed to the ground.
Everyone was stunned and looked up blankly, wondering why Prime Minister Zhao was so strange today?
If he is not crazy and doesn't want to live, then he is possessed by evil spirits!
On a large tree not far away, Prince Qing Yun Che inadvertently pulled the corner of his lip and laughed almost inaudibly.
It can be seen that it was the work of his daughter!
As expected of Yun Che's son, he's outstanding!!
It seems that there will be no banquet today, so he will quickly deal with the Cao family's affairs.
Only after getting rid of all those monsters and demons can his precious daughter live more comfortably in the capital.
…
Emperor Liang's eyes were filled with poison, as if they could kill with one blow. He stared at Zhao Kangnian without blinking.
He glanced at everyone present with sinister eyes, and he wished he could set fire to the place immediately, kill them all, and destroy all traces!
"Hmm! Looks like I've brought this humiliation upon myself..."
"Prime Minister, could you please tell me who these capable ministers are that you are talking about?"
Emperor Liang's voice was bone-chillingly cold.
After all, they had just witnessed such a bloody scene. Upon hearing the words, some of Zhao Kangnian's party could not bear it and fainted.
Gradually, the sound of a woman crying could be heard from the crowd...
Zhao Kangnian closed his eyes tightly and acted as if he was ready to die.
"Li Yikang, the Minister of the Dali Temple..."
But found that he couldn't control his mouth at all?
He pursed his lips tightly, even biting the tip of his tongue hard. The taste of blood spread in his mouth, and he heard himself mumbling, "Commander-in-Chief, Dian Yu..."
???
How, how could this happen?
Zhao Kangnian looked up in horror.
It seems that he has lost control since he came into contact with Princess Zhaoning...
He looked at Xiao Tangbao in surprise, then stood up and rushed towards the tree.
