Listening to his words, the words An Lan wanted to say were stuck in his throat and couldn't be uttered.
Every word Xu Qiu said was true.
Her mother was clearly unqualified to be a queen and lacked the necessary courage.
It has expanded rapidly since the Queen Mother ascended the throne.
Therefore, most people just stand by and watch the infighting among their subordinates, which has led to the current situation.
"All right."
An Lan accepted it.
Even if she did not accept it, Xu Qiu would dethrone the empress and establish a new emperor.
He has such strength.
It is a strength that can completely transcend the constraints of the world's rules.
“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
Xu Qiu said simply.
…
In the main hall of the Daqian Palace.
Empress An Qintian sat on the throne.
Listening to the endless quarrels among the court officials, especially recently the witch clan has completely taken control of the capital, and the royal family has also been controlled by the witch clan.
The court officials became bolder and didn't take An Qintian seriously at all.
At this time, the Prime Minister Gu Tianshou, who had been silent all this time, walked out from the crowd, holding up his tablet, and bowed slightly, saying:
"Your Majesty, the Dali Temple has found that during Qin Jianjia's reign, he had his own army and Qin Shaoliang had tampered with your will many times. There is solid evidence that the Qin family intends to rebel. I hope Your Majesty will make a decision quickly!"
Empress An Qintian frowned slightly when she heard this.
She originally wanted to put the Qin Mansion’s affairs on hold.
Now that the Prime Minister has laid the matter out in the open, Empress An Qintian is thinking about how to find an excuse to shirk it.
A large number of court officials came forward, also holding tablets, and shouted loudly: "There is irrefutable evidence that the Qin family intends to rebel. I hope Your Majesty will make a decision quickly!"
The voices of the courtiers echoed in the hall.
Empress An Qintian looked strange when she heard this. This time she couldn't refuse, nor could she avoid it.
"In that case, then exile me three thousand miles away."
The empress said in a deep voice.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, the Prime Minister shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is extremely inappropriate. The Qin family is rebelling, and simply exiling them is not enough to deter the scoundrels."
An Qintian frowned and asked, "What do you want, Lord?"
Gu Tianshou stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "I think the whole family should be executed! All three clans should be exterminated!"
He was full of vigor and vitality, and his voice echoed in the hall, touching people's hearts.
He continued: "Let the whole world know that this is the price of rebellion!"
At this time, the Prime Minister Gu Tianshou, with the support of the Imperial Master, was full of confidence, and his voice was an octave higher than before.
No longer as servile as before.
His voice was deafening.
The surrounding court officials also plucked up their courage and agreed, "What Lord Gu said is correct. I agree with him!"
"I think so too. If these scoundrels are not punished severely for rebellion, I am afraid that others will follow suit. Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"That's right. For the sake of Daqian's country, no matter how many merits the Qin family has made, the crime of treason is unforgivable!"
"Your Majesty must not leave a bad name for eternity! If you commit a minor offense against the Qin family, history books will record your name!"
All of these court officials spoke in a strong and decisive manner, even the censors, and they were ready to commit suicide to show their determination.
The ministers put so much pressure on him.
Cold sweat broke out on Empress An Qintian's white forehead. It was the first time that she felt tremendous pressure after being an emperor for so long.
However, they have no choice now. Both the Royal Guards and the Imperial Guards are in the hands of the Imperial Master, and the North Vietnamese envoys have extended their hands into the entire court.
Now, the court is not Daqian’s court, nor is it her court.
She may be forced to dethrone at any time.
He wanted to save the Qin Mansion but was powerless.
An Qintian bit her red lips, nodded helplessly, and then said: "Pass on my order..."
But she hadn't finished speaking yet.
"Gu Tianshou, you said the Qin family rebelled? They want to exterminate three clans? Then how many clans do you want to exile?"
The sound was extremely abrupt and extremely harsh to Gu Tianshou.
An Qintian and all the court officials turned their eyes to the entrance of the hall.
Xu Qiu slowly stepped over the threshold, entered the hall, and walked towards the center of the hall with a calm demeanor.
Following him besides Qin Jianjia were An Lan, Qin Jianjia, and others, as well as a group of imperial guards.
However, the soldiers of the Royal Guard stopped outside the hall and were not allowed to enter without the emperor's order.
At this time, Xu Qiu looked at Gu Tianshou with interest.
When Gu Tianshou saw the person coming, his pale brows frowned.
Then he said angrily: "How dare you, a mere son-in-law, despise the imperial power and say such treasonous words!"
Gu Tianshou was extremely angry that a mere son-in-law dared to ride on his head and shit on him.
If this matter gets out, how can he become the best minister of Daqian in the future?
Doesn't he have any dignity? "Someone, come here! The son-in-law of the Qin family broke into the hall and tried to assassinate His Majesty, drag him out and behead him!"
The Prime Minister of the dynasty, Gu Tianshou, was able to come up with excuses for killing people fluently and with great skill.
Xu Qiu was not given any chance to explain himself.
However, after Gu Tianshou finished shouting, the entire hall fell silent, and no imperial guards entered to take Xu Qiu out and behead him.
All the royal guards outside the palace remained silent, and a few soldiers who wanted to take action were held down by their colleagues.
For a moment, everyone was stunned.
Some court officials shouted, "The assassins have come to the palace to kill you, why don't you step forward and rescue the emperor!"
"You still want to rebel! And establish a new king?"
The court officials had no idea that the wind outside had already changed, let alone that their imperial teacher was dead.
He still shouted with full confidence, being a complete lackey of the Prime Minister.
Listen to the bored voices of these courtiers.
An Lan walked forward step by step and stretched out his hand to stop them from talking.
He said in a deep voice: "Now, do you think the North Vietnamese delegation can support you? Or do you think the Imperial Master can support you?"
An Lan's questioning voice made the surrounding court officials extremely dissatisfied.
Minister Li walked out from the crowd, holding a tablet in his hand, but standing straight.
"Sixth Prince... I'm sorry, Sixth Princess, that's not what I meant. We don't have anyone backing us up. We are speaking for the people. Besides, it's inappropriate for the princess to discuss political affairs. Please don't enter the palace again, Sixth Princess."
Another Minister Zhang also stepped out and nodded, saying, "Minister Li is right. It is inappropriate for women to interfere in government affairs. Do you want the country to be in chaos?"
He meant something else.
Hearing this, An Qintian frowned tightly. She could sense that the other party was making a veiled accusation.
It is obvious that she is interfering in government affairs and as an empress she has made a mess of the country's governance.
But she couldn't say anything now, because she was also a fish on the chopping board, and the entire court was controlled by the prime minister.
She couldn't help An Lan.
When An Lan heard what Minister Zhang said, he clenched his white fists tightly.
At this moment, she wanted to shout: "Are women really inferior to men? Women can also become the greatest emperor in the history..."
Unfortunately, when she saw her mother become emperor.
He indeed made a mess of the governance of Daqian. In order to maintain his own throne, he actually stood by and watched the court officials fight each other.
So out of control now.
So she couldn't tell.
However, at this moment, Xu Qiu suddenly turned around and called out, "Yu Mo, come here!"
Qin Yumo took small steps, looking nervously at the courtiers who were eating from others in the hall, and asked timidly: "Why did my brother-in-law call Yumo here?"
"Draw the sword and kill." Xu Qiu uttered these four simple words.
"ah?!"
Qin Yumo just stood there in a daze. Isn't it inappropriate to kill someone in the hall?
