Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Who is the Mighty Marquis? He is the top dignitary of the Huangtian Dynasty, a wealthy family that has existed since the founding of the Huangtian Dynasty.
The first generation of Weiwuhou followed Emperor Taizu and made great contributions to the country. It is precisely because of this that after the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu canonized him as Weiwuhou, and it has been inherited hereditary and has been passed down to this day.
But now His Majesty actually arrested the entire family of Marquis Weiwu, including his servants and maids.
More importantly, the Weiwu Marquis has a high prestige in the military, especially the Weiwu Army, which is the direct army of the Weiwu Marquis Mansion.
Every general is a contemporary powerful prince, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the private army of a powerful prince.
If the Mighty Marquis is really moved, then these 100,000 Mighty troops will probably rebel.
Everyone quickly figured this out, and several ministers looked at the prime minister.
"Prime Minister, you must not stand idly by anymore. If His Majesty really moves the mighty princes, the one hundred thousand mighty troops will definitely riot. This will definitely shake the foundation of the country."
Although the Mighty Army is not the most elite army in the Imperial Dynasty, it is still one of the main armies. Moreover, if an army of 100,000 people rebels, the consequences will be disastrous.
Hearing this, the prime minister did not refuse again this time, but fell into deep thought.
He never thought that Lu Ze would actually use Wei Wu Hou.
There are some guesses in my mind, but if it is just based on this, it is too exaggerated.
The eldest lady of Weiwuhou Mansion and the second prince have a marriage contract. It is said that Rong Yun and Mrs. Weiwuhou made it personally.
The wedding date has been set, but they haven't actually gotten married yet, so they are considered quasi-in-laws.
This may be the reason why His Majesty attacked the Weiwu Marquis, but if he wanted to attack the Weiwu Marquis just because of this, then the Prime Minister felt that this reason was too far-fetched.
Just because Marquis Weiwu and the second prince had a marriage contract, do you assume that Marquis Weiwu is a member of the second prince's lineage?"
Moreover, the people are now being taken directly to the Imperial City Prison. From the Prime Minister's perspective, His Majesty obviously wants to deal with everyone in the Weiwu Hou Mansion directly in the Imperial City Prison like before.
After thinking for a long time, the prime minister finally spoke.
"I will enter the palace now."
"Shan, the only one who can persuade His Majesty now is you."
Just as he was talking, the old housekeeper walked in again, with an anxious look on his face. Seeing this, the prime minister asked him to speak directly.
"If you have anything else to do, just say it directly."
Anyway, everyone present knew about Wei Wuhou, so there was no need to be secretive.
After hearing this, the old housekeeper hesitated for a moment and then said hesitantly.
"Just now, Master Taifu personally led the Shenxiu Army to the mighty army camp."
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned again.
The Shenxiu Army was one of the three elite armies of the Emperor Tian Dynasty. In terms of combat strength, it could be said that it was not weaker than King Qi's Northern Qi Army.
But now, Taifu personally led the Shenxiu Army to the Weiwu Army Camp.
Combined with the previous incident of the arrest of the Weiwu Houfu family, everyone reacted instantly to what His Majesty wanted to do.
This means that even the mighty army is not willing to let go, and even a hundred thousand mighty troops will be captured in one fell swoop.
Obviously, His Majesty did not act impulsively, but had already prepared and must have considered it carefully, otherwise it would be impossible to make such a choice.
For a moment, the prime minister, who had just stood up, sat back on his chair.
If this was the case, he knew very well that even if he came forward, it would be impossible to change His Majesty's decision, and he might not even be able to meet him.
Others were also panicked, and their eyes fell on the prime minister.
"Master Prime Minister, this."
"It's irreversible. The Weiwu Marquis Mansion is completely over. No one can save them. The Imperial Tutor is also on His Majesty's side."
If the prime minister and the Taifu came forward to persuade at the same time, there might be a glimmer of hope that the Weiwu Hou family could be persuaded. But now, since the Taifu can personally lead the troops to destroy the Weiwu army, it proves that the Taifu is on His Majesty's side.
Moreover, His Majesty must have told the Tutor about this matter a long time ago. In this case, the chance that one of the two top ministers, one civil and one military, will support His Majesty and the other wants to persuade him is too small.
After hearing this, everyone above also understood this truth, and they all sighed.
The Prime Minister looked in the direction of the palace, somewhat confused as to why His Majesty had to do so thoroughly this time.
Should everyone who is involved with the second prince be killed
In this case, too many people would be killed.
In the palace, Lu Ze was sitting in the Nuan Pavilion, listening to the report from the commander of the Imperial City Department below.
"Your Majesty, all of Wei Wuhou's family have been arrested, and a letter contacting Concubine Rong was found among them."
With that said, the commander of the Imperial City Department presented the letters found in the Marquis Weiwu's Mansion.
Looking at the content above, even though he had expected it, Lu Ze's face was still livid, and he couldn't suppress the murderous intent in his eyes.
"Well, what a loyal and loyal Marquis."
There is a lot of content in the letter, but basically it is about how Concubine Rong wins over Marquis Weiwu.
It was normal at first, but later on, after Concubine Rong promised a lot of benefits, Marquis Mighty indeed turned to her side.
He made it clear that he was willing to support the second prince to ascend the throne and inherit the throne.
Originally, it was okay. After all, in this fight for the crown prince, it was normal for the mighty prince to choose sides without knowing the inside story. The most he could say was that he was stupid and didn't know how to guess what Lu Ze meant.
But later on, after Marquis Weiwu knew that the second prince was not Lu Ze's biological son, but the son of Huo Xing, he still chose to support him.
This completely touched Lu Ze's bottom line.
If Marquis Weiwu was still loyal to the country before, then at this moment, he is loyal to Rong Lie brother and sister.
And compared to others, Wei Wuhou is hidden deeper and more threatening. It can be said to be Rong Yun's trump card.
On the surface, there seems to be no connection with Rong Yun and his son, but in fact, the entire mighty army has been secretly controlled by Rong Yun and his son many years ago, and this is also the most powerful force in their hands.
A hundred thousand mighty troops were quietly controlled by that bitch, and the role of the mighty lord among them was naturally self-evident.
What's even more outrageous is that the mighty prince and Rong Yun actually have a shady relationship, and they have had more than one private meeting.
In Rong Yun's letter to Marquis Weiwu, he stated that this was a reward for Marquis Weiwu.
Looking at the letters in his hand, Lu Ze's face was so gloomy that he could shed tears. He gritted his teeth and said to the commander of the Imperial City Division below.
"Go, let him die, let his whole family die, and use the most cruel methods of your Imperial City Division to kill him for me. I will let him experience all the tortures of the Imperial City Division."
Looking at Lu Ze, who had red eyes and a ferocious look on his face, the commander of the Imperial City Department was shocked. He didn't know what was going on and why His Majesty suddenly acted like this, but he still nodded respectfully.
"Yes, I humbly accept my order."
