The empress called her sister, and the goddess was willing to enter the mortal world

In the vast imperial palace, an angry voice rang out from the room, disturbing the night.

"My prince has suffered such a disaster in the palace. Who is so powerful that he dares to challenge the imperial power?"

Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister bowed his head slightly and said, "Your Majesty, although the court looks the same as usual, the inside has already been infiltrated."

Emperor Bei Jing looked at the Prime Minister, "Does the Prime Minister have any guesses?"

"I boldly guess that it was the Empress who did it."

Emperor Bei Jing had thought about this speculation, but he didn't want to believe it. He tried to list the evidence and defend the other party, "Why did the Prime Minister think it was her? Can't someone in the clan have this idea? If they get rid of the crown prince, they will have a chance to take the throne."

"Since that time, our treasury has been empty and has not recovered to this day. Your Majesty loves the people like his own children and cannot bear to increase taxes. The people are unaware of this, but the clan members know the inside story. At this time, no one is willing to take over this hot potato."

"The attitudes of those nobles are becoming more and more ambiguous. I guess they have reached some agreement with someone in private. As long as South Vietnam launches an attack at this time, we will have little chance of winning. The emperor at this time will be the first target they want to kill."

Emperor Bei Jing tried to convince himself, "But I and the Queen have been in Nanyue for so long, and everything has been fine."

The Prime Minister also frowned at this time, "This is also what I have been unable to figure out. If my guess is true, Your Majesty and Your Majesty should not be able to return. Did anything happen to you in Nanyue?"

I can’t talk about Zi’er, and the Empress’s matter…

Emperor Bei Jing was a little hesitant, that was all.

"Nothing, these are just speculations, I want evidence!"

There was anger in his eyes. "Find out the real culprit. No matter who the suspect is, I allow you to take action directly. You don't need to report back. You must find out the truth in the shortest possible time, otherwise I will not be at peace!"

The Prime Minister was a little surprised. "Your Majesty, this is against the rules. There has never been such a precedent before."

"Just go ahead and do it. I don't believe anyone except you now!"

The kindness in his eyes was gone. "The Prime Minister should have some clues. Let's do it tonight, even if we have to use some extraordinary means."

The Prime Minister was shocked by His Majesty's behavior. If the Crown Prince's life was just in danger, His Majesty would not have made such a decision. There must be some inside story that he was not suitable to know. It seemed that something had touched the Emperor's bottom line.

"Yes."

After the Prime Minister left, Emperor Bei Jing turned off the lights in the hall. When the last candle was about to go out, he stopped. The light felt warm on his face. In the end, he let go of the candle and sat alone in the bedroom until dawn.

The prime minister did not sleep the whole night. He sent all those involved who had evidence to jail overnight. Those who had incomplete evidence were also put under custody. Such actions made people panic and doomed today's morning court to be turbulent.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister broke into the palace last night and forcibly detained someone. I beg Your Majesty to severely punish the Prime Minister and give me justice."

"Fair?" Emperor Bei Jing sneered, "The fact that you can stand here is the greatest justice."

He glanced at the ministers and said, "I know that many of your ministers have family members implicated. Those who are imprisoned will be killed regardless of their background or status."

As soon as these words came out, the whole court was shocked. Everyone looked at His Majesty with disbelief. He had always ruled the world with benevolence, so when did he resort to such means...

Is it really just because of the prince?

Looking at the expressions of the ministers below, Emperor Bei Jing spoke slowly: "There are many officials missing from the court today, and not all of them are being investigated because of the Crown Prince incident. Do the traitors among you think you are hiding well?"

He smiled, "I was too kind before, which led to the internal and external troubles now. I was wrong! I will not let any of those who betrayed Beijing go."

A minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is of great importance. I am afraid it will shake the foundation of the country. I suggest that the Ministry of Justice and the Censorate be jointly responsible. It is really too late to leave such a major matter to the Prime Minister alone..."

"I think what you said makes sense."

Just when the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, the person on the dragon throne gave an order.

"The Prime Minister is in charge of the trial, and the general is assisting. Those involved in the case will be killed without any need for reporting!"

"Your Majesty, you..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by an unquestionable voice, "Prime Minister, please stay and adjourn the court."

"Did you remember those panicked ministers just now?"

"I have remembered all of this. I will start with them when I return."

Emperor Bei Jing looked at him with satisfaction and said, "Go ahead, don't be soft-hearted."

The prime minister took a few steps and then turned back, "Your Majesty, this move is bound to shake the interests of those nobles. If they resist, our dynasty will be in chaos."

Emperor Bei Jing no longer cared. "Whether they resist or not, what difference does it make to the final outcome? For the businesses involved, we will find someone to take over. If we can't take over, we will destroy them."

"Yes."

The Prime Minister looked at His Majesty deeply, then turned and left.

Emperor Bei Jing sat alone on the dragon throne for a long time. Only after he calmed down did he get up and rush to the prince's residence.

"Mother, my sister is here to greet you again."

The queen was somewhat helpless, "Don't call her sister, she doesn't acknowledge you, don't take advantage of her."

The queen stretched out her hand and tapped the jade token twice, and the words in the air suddenly disappeared.

"Mother, is this divine weapon spiritual? Why is there no response when I touch it?"

The queen glanced at him and said, "It's already a great honor for you to be able to touch the jade token. Are you still thinking about something else?"

When Emperor Bei Jing came in, he saw such a harmonious scene, "How do you feel today, Heng'er?"

The prince lay very comfortably on the bed, "Very good, I can even eat a whole goose."

That's it again!

Emperor Bei Jing resisted the urge to beat the other person up and approached the queen. "You seem very happy? Did something happen? Do you want to share it with me?"

The prince, who was lying leisurely on the bed, said on behalf of the queen: "My sister just sent her regards, and the queen mother is very happy."

"What sister?"

"Sister Goddess"

Emperor Bei Jing looked at his son with a look that said "you are sick and stupid", "Who said she is your sister?"

The prince said seriously, "I said it myself."

When Emperor Bei Jing wanted to speak, the prince added in time: "My son is thick-skinned, please don't bother with me, father."

Emperor Bei Jing took a deep breath, "I haven't acknowledged you yet, and even if I did, you're still my younger brother. Where do you get the confidence from? A god is younger than you?"

"I know she is older, but I just want her to be my younger sister!"

"Why are you so persistent?"

"Although the elder brother and the younger brother can do the same thing, there are always some differences. I like to be the older one so that I can protect my younger sister without age restrictions."
