After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 156 Sister, listen to my heart, are you panicking?
"Sister, you have no idea how annoying it is when all those ministers quarrel, quarrel, quarrel, quarrel!"

The little emperor seemed to be boneless. He sat crookedly, hugging a big soft pillow, leaning against Zhao Tan. He put a cherry in his mouth with a dandy look on his face. He didn't care that there was still bright red cherry juice on the corner of his mouth. He wiped it twice, came over, and complained and acted coquettishly to Zhao Tan.

"Sister, you don't know how scary it is that the Left Prime Minister was speaking passionately and suddenly turned into a corpse that had been rotting for many days!"

"I was terrified!"

"It's so late, and I'm still working hard without any rest. Sister, please feel sorry for me."

“I’m working so hard!”

"I didn't even have the chance to have dinner. I was frightened for no reason. If I don't have something delicious, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well tonight."

The little emperor approached Zhao Tan and acted coquettishly: "Sister, please make me some cherry pastry. The ones made by others are never as delicious as the ones made by you at home."

"I think your fear is fake, but your greed is real."

Zhao Tanmei glared at him and said, "The ones who are really frightened should be those ministers you left in the upper study, right?"

The little emperor chuckled twice and said nothing.

"Have we dealt with the body of the Left Prime Minister?" Zhao Tan looked at him.

The little emperor suddenly looked serious: "Not yet."

"There must be an explanation for this matter. Why did the Left Prime Minister suddenly become like this? How should the body be buried..."

He paused, "Su Wenheng brought Zhang Shen to the palace earlier, saying that the Zhang family was colluding with evil forces and using the haunted house to murder innocent people. I thought he had an old grudge against the Zhang family, so he captured the crazy Zhang Da and wanted to drag the Zhang family into this."

"In addition, the Minister of the Central Secretariat, the Left Prime Minister, the Right Prime Minister, the Minister of Works, the Minister of Rites, and the Imperial Secretariat were all present at the time, and they all spoke for the Zhang family. They felt that Su Wenheng was making a fuss over nothing, and that it was nothing more than beating and killing servants, which was not a big deal..."

"How dare you!" Before the little emperor could finish his words, Zhao Tan's face turned cold, and he slammed the table angrily and glared at him, which frightened him a lot: "Sister."

He hastened to sit up straighter.

"Do you think so too?" Zhao Tan stared at the little emperor with a serious expression.

The little emperor was puzzled: "What?"

"It's just the killing of a few servants, it's not a big deal... Does the emperor think so too?" Zhao Tan was unusually stern.

The little emperor suddenly looked serious: "Of course I don't think so!"

"Sister, you don't think I'm the kind of cruel and unjust ruler who treats human life as worthless, do you?"

"This dynasty has long issued a strict order that no slaves, whether good or lowly, may be beaten to death at will. Anyone who damages the good status will be punished even more severely!"

He showed his grievance at the right time: "I am just imitating what those ministers said..."

The little emperor paused and said, "If my sister is unhappy and misunderstands me, I will issue an order to demote them and confine them to their homes."

Wouldn't that mean roasting her over the fire?
Zhao Tan glanced at this seemingly innocent and naive brother, and said with a slight smile: "I just reminded the emperor, but he has made him unhappy."

"As a leader, you should have some iron-blooded tactics."

"Otherwise, if we encounter those who deceive their superiors and subordinates, and fail to make an example of them and enforce strict military discipline, won't we be deceived and fooled all the time?"

"But the heart of the tiger——"
