And people like the British Duke and others with status, status, and age would not complain to the emperor like those ministers who complained, but at this time they also stood aside with an honest look. It was obvious that he didn't speak and wanted to stay out of the situation.
Chu Luojue looked at this scene and didn't know what was going on. He could only glance at Su Ningxin with a vague look, and thought to himself, 'As expected of Shen Qing, she tricked all these ministers into asking for mercy. things can be done. '
Su Ningxin now focused her attention on the crying ministers and scolded her directly, "You treacherous villains actually betrayed you in front of the emperor. Do you have a grudge against Prince Anjun's Palace and are you deliberately trying to attack me?" Are we adding insult to injury?"
The ministers were stunned by Su Ningxin's sudden voice. After being stunned for a moment, she became furious. Isn't this how to hit someone with a rake
The leader of the rebellion was said by her to have made the emperor unhappy over some trivial matter, and asked them to go over and beg for mercy.
They guessed that Su Ningxin must not have told the truth completely, and the person who could find them to plead for mercy was definitely not a so-called trivial matter. However, even if they thought about it, they never expected that Su Ningxin was so capable of telling lies. The rebellion was in her You can actually say it is a trivial matter without blushing or heartbeat
Now that they were tricked into going to the study, if they were not careful, they would cause the emperor's displeasure. If the emperor was angry, they would be angry at them. They were all in such a situation. Su Ningxin actually had the nerve to bite back and accuse them of betrayal
These ministers have always been respected and supported by others. How could they have ever been wronged like this? They were so angry that they started to argue with Su Ningxin.
At this time, Gu Mingxi's role was also reflected. She and Su Ningxin were arguing with the scholars. Even a little girl silenced a dozen ministers who were arguing with them, knowing that the other party's words were meaningless. It makes sense, but I can't refute it.
Finally, there are a few sentences: "Only women and villains are difficult to raise." A vulgar woman has short knowledge. 'I won't admit defeat even if I say this over and over again.
"Okay." Chu Luojue saw that there was a lot of noise in the study and said to stop him. Although his voice was not loud, it was like thunder in everyone's ears, making the scene instantly quiet.
[Hehe, these old foxes seem to be blushing because they are noisy, but in fact they have been secretly observing the emperor's reaction. ] Su Ningxin said with disdain in her heart, completely forgetting that she was the most noisy.
"This is a study room, not a vegetable market. How should you behave?" Chu Luojue scolded, his face extremely serious.
But Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi, who are familiar with him, both know that this boring coquettish man definitely stopped after seeing enough of the excitement. He didn't know how much he was watching just now. He wished he could cross his legs and hold the melon seeds while watching. .
Unfortunately, those ministers didn't know that they were frightened out of their wits when they heard Chu Luojue's reprimand, and immediately knelt down to plead guilty and beg for mercy.
Chu Luojue pondered for a moment and said, "The matter concerning Prince An is of great importance and will be discussed later. As for your misconduct in front of the emperor, I will fine you half a year's salary as a warning to others."
"I thank you, Lord, for your kindness." The ministers said gratefully, feeling happy to have escaped the disaster. After all, for the ministers of the DPRK, fines and grounding were the lightest punishments.
But Su Ningxin secretly dubbed the emperor in her heart, "I fined more than a dozen ministers half a year's salary, and saved a lot of money for the treasury. I am really an ordinary money-saving genius."]
After such a fuss, Chu Luojue didn't keep these people anymore and sent them all away together.
On the way out of the palace, Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi were walking at the front, followed by the ministers who were walking together in twos and threes, talking quietly, looking at Su Ningxin's back in front of them with different expressions.
However, everyone could see that the Crown Prince's skills were not simple. Anyone who could reach their position was not a fool. Even when they were in the study room, they could not see clearly because of the pressure that shocked the emperor.
But after leaving the study room, their minds became more flexible. Su Ning thought that the series of actions seemed to have had the opposite effect and failed to make many ministers intercede for Prince An. In fact, it was precisely this kind of behavior that made the emperor He gave up the idea of executing Prince An.
Su Ningxin went to the study with a group of unsuspecting ministers, and then the ministers temporarily betrayed him and directly stabbed him in the back. This was to show the emperor that although Prince An had led troops to rebel, he had never won over the ministers.
Although they are all rebellions, for the emperor to let his subordinates betray him and rebel, it is completely different from the direct recklessness of Prince An.
In the latter case, the emperor only needs to deal with matters in the North, while in the former case, it will be widely involved. After all, the emperor is also worried that one of his courtiers will betray him. No one wants to be on guard against his subordinates stabbing him in the back every day, right
Although the emperor didn't say anything now and just let it be discussed later, no news is the best news. If the emperor wanted to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, he would not waste time and directly ordered someone to escort Prince An to the Meridian Gate of Beijing to behead him. The decision to wait for further discussion showed that the emperor was not prepared to deal with Prince An in a big way, so his life was saved.
In fact, King An was also very lucky. Prince Jing had just completed his rebellion and led his troops to force the palace. It wouldn't take long for this matter to be known to the whole world. Even if Chu Luojue wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, he would definitely expose him and whip him. Corpse, but not Prince An.
"This girl is not simple." Dingyuan Hou, who was walking beside the British Duke, sighed as he looked at the backs of Su Ningxin and Gu Mingxi.
The British Duke chuckled, "How can a concubine who accompanies the emperor from his youth to his throne be so simple?"
Marquis Dingyuan nodded in agreement. Su Ningxin's identity was not a secret in the eyes of these high-ranking ministers. After all, the face was still there, and their family members often had to enter the palace to attend palace meetings. During the banquet, there were many opportunities to see Concubine Chen, but everyone tacitly didn't say it out loud.
"Not only the power of the dragon, but also how many people have you seen who were able to enter the palace and still escape unharmed?" Dingyuan Hou said with some profound meaning.
The British Duke stopped and looked at Marquis Dingyuan with some clarity and some confusion. He seemed to have understood the profound meaning of Marquis Dingyuan, but he didn't seem to quite understand it.
However, Marquis Dingyuan had no intention of explaining. He walked a few steps away from the British Duke and walked to another minister. The two of them chatted.
Su Ningxin chatted with Gu Mingxi happily. Solving the matter of Prince An relieved her of a heavy burden. The matter of Prince An was not big or small. In the worst case, it was leading troops to rebel. The crime of confiscating the house and exterminating the family was, to say the least, a misunderstanding. After all, Prince An was stopped before he even left the boundaries of Daming Mansion.
How to punish the crime depends on the emperor's attitude. Now it seems that the emperor does not intend to punish Prince An for serious crimes.
