Chapter 0143 Taking Advantage of the Issue
The news of the Xin'an Rebellion and the return of the Zhenbei Army led by a foreign race to Yiyang were sent back to the court together.
The military report was sent directly to the palace and was obtained by Sun Shannu without even going through a second hand.
The beautiful empress dowager in her prime sat in the seat that Sun Renluan usually sat in. She had just had a curtain hung in this not-so-big study two days ago. This was a signal she was sending to the outside world, meaning that she was going to rule the country from behind the curtain. However, so far, she had not actually stepped into the court meeting.
Because Yang Zangyi refused, when he heard that Sun Renluan was in trouble, Sun Shannu was already excited and took the initiative. She took out the Sun family's token and forced those who were originally loyal to Sun Renluan to listen to her. Some people did not trust Sun Shannu, but some people felt that since the king's uncle was in trouble, the best person they could rely on at the moment was the queen mother.
What broke this hesitation was that after the lights came on, Sun Shannu appeared in front of these Sun family confidants holding the little emperor.
The little emperor stuck close to Sun Shannu and looked at them with a vigilant look. The expressions of these people changed again and again, but finally, as Sun Shannu wished, they had to bow their heads to her.
By the time Yang Zangyi found out, Sun Renluan had already been tightly protected in his bedroom. Sun Shannu moved in without paying attention to the rules about separation of men and women. The little emperor still lived in his original place, and the number of people guarding him was twice as many as before.
In fact, it is a bit strange, because Sun Renluan does not like to enjoy himself, so he lives in such a small palace. Compared with the empress dowager's palace, this place is only about a quarter of the size. It is obviously fine to set up the office in his own palace, but Sun Shannu insisted on moving here, using Sun Renluan's study and sitting in Sun Renluan's seat.
Of course Yang Zangyi couldn't stand watching Sun Shannu replace Sun Renluan, so he brought his people to force Sun Shannu to step down and hand over Sun Renluan who was said to be unconscious. However, he never expected that Sun Shannu, who in his eyes had no intelligence at all, actually had an ambitious side. She asked the Sun family to confront these people and threatened them that if they dared to step in, they would all be traitors.
What puzzled Yang Zangyi the most was that Sun Shannu had a great hatred for him. Among so many people, the one she disliked the most was Yang Zangyi. After she gained the upper hand, she actually asked Yang Zangyi to kneel down in front of her, and sent the palace maids around her to strip off his thick outer coat, leaving him to go out wearing only a single layer of clothes.
Yang Zangyi: “…”
Of course he felt ashamed and angry, but he was more puzzled as to why Sun Shannu looked like she wanted to take revenge on him.
He understood it clearly the next day because he saw that there was a new person beside Sun Shannu, the spy he had worked so hard to train before, Tan'er.
Yang Zangyi: “…………”
Tan'er had been captured by Sun Renluan before, and no one knew where she was being held. Yang Zangyi could hardly protect himself at that time, so of course he had no chance to rescue him. And to be honest, after so long, Yang Zangyi thought he should have died. But he didn't know that Sun Shannu was throwing a tantrum and rolling on the ground begging Sun Renluan not to kill Tan'er. Sun Renluan knew his sister's character, and if he killed her, she would indeed do something extreme, so he just found a secluded place and hid the person.
He could not have imagined that there would come a day when he would vomit blood and fall into a coma. Sun Shannu was smart this time. She did not go to find Tan'er immediately, but took power first, stabilized the situation temporarily, and then rescued the person she cared about.
Tan'er is not a spy like Xizhu who has been trained since childhood. He was bought by Yang Zangyi when he was a teenager and was only trained for two years. He was imprisoned and ravaged for nearly half a year. Don't expect him to be loyal to Yang Zangyi. He is almost perverted now, and he only wants to get back all the humiliation he has suffered.
When these two got together, one was in love and the other was mentally ill. Sun Shannu felt sorry for Tan'er and gave him almost everything he had. Tan'er tested Sun Shannu's bottom line and found that she could really do whatever she wanted, so he became arrogant. …………
When Sun Renluan was around, not many people thought of his kindness. Now that he is gone, everyone realizes that the court really cannot do without this pillar. Sun Shannu opened the treasury and dressed her lover up like a prince for a trip. Yang Zangyi was furious when he found out that Tan'er had bitten him back. After two conflicts, he began to plan to force the emperor to abdicate.
The problem is that this is not a good time for them to fight among themselves. There is a big problem with the granary, but no one has the time to take care of it. While everyone in the palace is busy seizing power, someone in Jinling City lets out a shrill scream.
"The granary is empty! The granary is empty!"
"The imperial court has run out of food, hahahaha, everyone just wait to die!"...
It is hard to find out who shouted this. Anyway, the moment this person shouted, the whole of Jinling was like an earthquake. Everyone from top to bottom was stunned.
The most shocked person here was probably Yang Zangyi, because he didn't know there was a problem with the granary.
This is too ridiculous... He is the prime minister, but he didn't even know such a big thing happened in the city. Now he understood why Sun Renluan suddenly fell ill. It must be because after receiving the news, he couldn't accept the blow and never woke up.
After the confusion, there was overwhelming anger.
He didn't know because no one told him. What about Sun Shannu? What about the Sun family's supporters? Did they know but still not care? !
