The most romantic little emperor

Wang Jian thought for a moment, then slowly said: "I don't know the situation of Xuanwu Guard at present, but according to my speculation, it is estimated that there are nine out of ten people involved. I guess that this matter may not be a simple internal court dispute, and there may be deeper conspiracies and forces hidden behind it. Therefore, we cannot take it lightly, and we must conduct an in-depth investigation to find out the truth thoroughly."

Qin Hao nodded slightly, his tone steady but somewhat gentle: "Brother-in-law, you and I know this very well. I have long been aware of these situations. Now, half of the troops in the right camp are in our hands, and General Li Mu of the Azure Dragon Guard is also secretly collecting evidence of the crimes of the Su family father and son."

"I now order you to work hand in hand with Generals He Xuan and Li Mu to secretly investigate these scums in the army, identify them one by one, and make them accept the punishment of the law, so as to clear these stains for my Great Xia army."

Wang Jian nodded in agreement.

Qin Hao turned around, picked up the imperial edict that had been prepared long ago from the desk, and handed it to Wang Jian carefully, saying in a deep voice: "Wang Jian, today I appoint you as the mighty marshal, commanding the three armies of Fengtai, Mangshan, and Gufeng, and the important task of guarding the capital. I will hand it over to you. I hope you can fulfill your duties and live up to my high expectations of you."

Wang Jian knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully, saying, "Your Majesty, rest assured. I am willing to swear my life and be loyal to Your Majesty until death to repay your kindness."

After saying that, he slowly stood up and turned to leave. Just as his figure was about to disappear outside the door, Qin Hao's deep and powerful voice suddenly rang out: "General Wang, you can rest assured. I will treat Rong'er sincerely. When I ascend the throne, I will make her my queen and the mother of the country."

Upon hearing this, Wang Jian suddenly stopped, turned around, and bowed deeply in the direction of Qin Hao, his voice full of gratitude and respect: "Your Majesty's kindness, I will remember it in my heart. Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After saying that, he strode out of the room with big strides, his back looking even more determined and upright in the night.

Shortly after Wang Jian left, Old Feng's figure appeared silently in front of Qin Hao.

Qin Hao looked up at the old man, with a hint of expectation in his eyes: "Old Feng, that Hu Dahai, has he spoken yet?"

Elder Feng shook his head slightly, his old face full of helplessness and sighs: "Your Majesty, Hu Dahai is indeed a stubborn person. No matter how much he is tortured, he will never say a word."

Qin Hao frowned when he heard this, and a feeling of irritation surged in his heart. But at this moment, Feng Lao changed the subject and brought new hope: "However, this old servant just came back from the Ministry of Justice and brought back new information."

"Oh?" Qin Hao's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and he quickly asked, "Tell me quickly, what is the new information?"

Elder Feng said slowly, "Your Majesty, Hu Dahai is just a chess piece. Now, all the clues point to a minister in the palace."

Qin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes were sharp, and he asked softly, "Are you talking about the Su family, Su Zhengfang and his son? Is there any solid evidence?"

Elder Feng nodded slightly, his eyes flashing with a deep light: "Although there is no ironclad evidence, from the results of our interrogation, all signs indicate that those mysterious killer organizations must have a close connection with the Su family. Your Majesty, should we take the initiative to prevent the situation from getting worse?"

Qin Hao pondered for a moment, tapping his fingers on the table, as if weighing the pros and cons. Feng Lao's proposal was not unreasonable, but in this palace, every step must be taken with caution. If you are not careful, you may lose everything.

"This matter needs long-term consideration."

Qin Hao finally spoke, his voice full of determination, "Now is not the time yet. We need to investigate secretly and collect more evidence. If we want to strike first, we must act with all our might and never give them any chance to resist. We must catch them all in one fell swoop, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

Elder Feng nodded and said respectfully, "Your Highness, Su Yong is not in the capital right now, and he has a large number of troops under his command. If he escapes, there will be endless troubles. We have to be on guard."

After hearing this, Qin Hao showed a cunning smile on his face, like a fox who was planning something. He chuckled and said, "I had already anticipated Su Yong's movements and made some careful arrangements. Otherwise, I would not have let him leave the capital so easily. Don't worry, this guy can't escape my Five Fingers Mountain even if he wants to turn the world upside down."

"However, the only thing I'm worried about now is the Northern Border, which is almost the Su family's base camp. Once they get the news, I'm worried that the Su family's direct descendants and confidants will not be able to hold back and will directly rise up in rebellion or defect to the Liao Kingdom. In this way, the situation will become much more complicated and more difficult to handle." Qin Hao frowned slightly, revealing a bit of worry in his words.

Old Feng frowned and advised, "Your Majesty, I have a plan. If we can make a clever plan in secret and completely eliminate the Su family's power in one fell swoop, and then strictly block the news, we can try to lure those Su family members and confidants who are away to return to the capital, or carry out assassination operations. Then, they will be able to catch them all in one fell swoop."

Qin Hao nodded slightly and chuckled, "Old Feng is right. At present, this plan is indeed feasible. However, we still need to act cautiously and not be negligent. After all, the Su family is so powerful that it cannot be eradicated overnight. We must plan carefully and take every step carefully to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Old Feng nodded in agreement. He knew very well that the young emperor in front of him had already begun to make careful plans and was forcing the Su family into a desperate situation step by step. The downfall of the Su family was almost a foregone conclusion.

The next day.

The news that the killer base in the deep mountains and forests along the Grand Canal was wiped out by Zuo Daying in one fell swoop spread throughout the capital. After all, such a big thing could not be covered up even if someone wanted to.

Moreover, the capital was in the midst of another great shock at this time. The death of the late emperor had enveloped the entire country in an atmosphere of mourning.

At this sensitive moment, the occurrence of such an act which was tantamount to treason undoubtedly dropped a heavy bomb on the capital.

For a time, all the ministers in the court were in panic, and the entire palace was shrouded in a depressing and tense atmosphere.

All the civil and military officials in the court were speculating on the deeper meaning behind this and what might happen next.

The ancient saying "a storm is about to come and the wind is blowing all over the building" has been perfectly interpreted in the capital at this moment.

Everyone knows that this is not just a simple eradication operation, but also a battle for the fate of the country.

And in this contest, who will be the final winner?
