Empress Wang's eyes widened.
Although the crown prince was seriously injured and has not yet fully woken up, she has confirmed that the crown prince is not in mortal danger.
But now, facing Emperor Tianqi's threatening gaze, she was uncertain again.
The premise that the crown prince will not die is that no one attacks him!
Xie Xin is not the only enemy in this palace.
There were other princes and other concubines.
Even the emperor before us.
She only had one son, Xie Sheng, but the emperor had more than one son!
Is she trying to use the Crown Prince's death to bring Xie Xin down?
She shuddered, terrified by the thought.
She hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I know my crime. I will go back immediately to guard the Crown Prince and ensure his safety!"
She still had to protect the Crown Prince first and ensure his safety.
If the crown prince dies, everything will be meaningless.
Emperor Tianqi sneered and said, "Go!"
Empress Wang left in a hurry, almost fleeing in panic.
The others looked at each other, unsure how to react as Empress Wang left.
Emperor Tianqi's gaze swept over the kneeling ministers, and he said coldly, "You all get out too!"
Those people felt as if they had been granted a pardon and quickly took their leave.
Once there was no one else in the Imperial Study, Sun Jiasheng hurriedly entered.
He was holding a message sent by carrier pigeon.
"Your Majesty, the Embroidered Uniform Guard sent to Ji Province has replied."
Xie Che pressed two fingers to his temples, rubbed them, and said wearily, "Recite!"
Ever since he learned that Yun Chuwei had led the rebels to Goryeo, he hadn't had a good night's sleep.
He had no idea what this girl was up to!
Every time he lay down, he couldn't help but wonder, what is this girl thinking?
Sun Jiasheng could only unfold the carrier pigeon and begin to read it.
"Your Majesty, we have received Miss Yun. Accompanying her back to the capital is Li Yuanmu, the second son of the rebel general Li Ping. It is said that the rebels have already conquered Goryeo. Li Yuanmu came to the capital this time to submit a memorial on behalf of his father, hoping that Your Majesty will establish Goryeo Prefecture in Goryeo to govern the Goryeo region!"
After reading it, Sun Jiasheng was already shocked.
He had heard rumors that Miss Yun had colluded with the rebels and defected to Goryeo.
Although he thought it was impossible for Miss Yun to defect, he never expected that Miss Yun would lead the rebel army to attack Goryeo.
And it even succeeded?
This...this...
What is Miss Yun trying to do?
He glanced at His Majesty cautiously, worried that if His Majesty became angry, he would be the one to suffer.
Fortunately, His Majesty did not seem to be angry.
Xie Che looked up and extended his hand towards Sun Jiasheng.
Sun Jiasheng understood and immediately placed the paper in his hand respectfully into Xie Che's hand.
Xie Che placed the piece of paper on the table and read it over.
His hand rested on the piece of paper, his fingertips tapping lightly.
After a moment's thought, he understood Yun Chuwei's purpose in doing so.
The internal conflicts within the Great Chu were acute. Now that Li Ping had rebelled, all the forces hidden beneath the calm surface were focusing their attention on Li Ping's rebel army.
If Li Ping's rebel army is completely wiped out, it will certainly deter other restless individuals.
However, the contradictions remain and the situation remains severe.
It's just being suppressed temporarily.
Taking Li Ping to fight Goryeo would undoubtedly provide another solution for those restless and turbulent forces.
Next, if they want to develop their strength, they can go and fight against Jiaozhi, Yelang, Zhuyai, the Xiongnu, and the Western Rong...
Xie Che narrowed his eyes slightly.
He felt that Yun Chuwei's solution seemed quite good. This way, the conflict could be shifted elsewhere, and if they were lucky, they could continue to expand their territory without needing the court to provide provisions.
Xie Che looked at Sun Jiasheng and said, "Bring Huo Qingjue to see me!"
Upon hearing this, Sun Jiasheng understood that His Majesty intended to release Huo Qingjue.
He readily agreed and then headed towards the imperial prison.
When Sun Jiasheng saw Huo Qingjue, Jiang Wanqiu, and Xie Xin in the imperial prison, he couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
In all his years of life, this was the first time he had ever seen anyone playing cards in the imperial prison.
This is outrageous!
However, Sun Jiasheng didn't say anything. He just lowered his head, pretending not to see the three of them playing cards.
He said, “General Huo, His Majesty summons you. Please come with me!”
Upon hearing this, Huo Qingjue immediately stood up.
He beckoned a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard to come and relieve him, then left with Sun Jiasheng.
On the way, he couldn't help but whisper to Sun Jiasheng, "Does Eunuch Sun know why His Majesty summoned me?"
Sun Jiasheng respectfully replied, "How dare I presume to know His Majesty's thoughts?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Qingjue stopped asking questions.
He knew he wouldn't get any answers from Sun Jiasheng.
Soon, Huo Qingjue met Emperor Tianqi.
After he knelt down and paid his respects, he heard the Tianqi Emperor speak.
"Yun Chuwei is already on her way to the capital. You and your men are going to meet her! Remember, if anything happens to Yun Chuwei, you and your men will be beheaded!"
Huo Qingjue was slightly startled, but quickly replied, "Your subject obeys!"
As Huo Qingjue took his leave, he heard Emperor Tianqi add, "Take Jiang Wanqiu with you too!"
Huo Qingjue readily agreed.
-
After leaving the palace, Huo Qingjue went to the imperial prison and told Xie Xin and the other person what had happened.
Both of them were very surprised.
"Is Yun Chuwei really coming back?" Xie Xin found it hard to believe.
