The First Tyrant of Daxia

After the conversation, Qin Yun met with several people with special talents and successfully recruited them.

Night is falling.

Eunuch Xi came to report that the abbot of Chaotian Temple in Zhongnan Mountain had sent a letter of apology.

The letter of apology was very formulaic, implicitly condemning the Tibetan monk, distancing itself from the matter and requesting punishment.

Qin Yun read it without making any response.

A thief would only claim to have stolen something when he was a thief. Qin Yun now only believed what he had found out. He was in Chaotian Temple, so he had better not play tricks!

Five days passed.

As Lao Jiu was imprisoned for longer and longer, Dou Ji became more and more anxious. She asked to see Qin Yun again and again, saying all the good things she could, but Qin Yun didn't buy it.

After repeated rejections, Dou Ji became disheartened, cried all day long, and locked herself in Qianfu Palace.

Even, there were a few white hairs among the three thousand black hairs.

Looking around the court, no one dared to speak for the Ninth Prince.

Only after several rounds of searches by the Ministry of Justice and the Zongzheng Temple, they finally found the illegal items in the palace!

This thing is, a dragon robe!

The prince secretly kept the dragon robe, which was a capital crime and also a crime that killed the emperor.

Regardless of whether Canghua framed the Ninth Prince or not, and regardless of whether the private army was trained by the Ninth Prince or not, it would not be excessive to be imprisoned for a lifetime just for this dragon robe.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Lao Jiu’s momentum of collapse is unstoppable.

"Your Majesty, the King of Zhenbei has secretly entered the imperial capital."

"He is waiting in the Taiji Hall now. He said he wanted to apologize to Your Majesty. He also asked someone to bring more than a dozen carriages full of rare antiques, which are very valuable." Old Feng suddenly said.

Qin Yun let go of Zheng Ruyu's plump waist, a hint of amusement appearing on his face.

"Finally you're here. I've finally waited for you."

"Yes, this King Zhenbei is quite obedient. Let's go and meet him."

As he said this, he took the lead and walked in front.

Zheng Ruyu and several concubines hurriedly bowed and said, "Farewell, Your Majesty!"

After a while, they arrived at the magnificent Tai Chi Hall.

Qin Yun sat on the dragon throne with his horse and golden sword, overlooking a middle-aged man kneeling below.

He was dressed in black, looking extremely plain. Who would have thought that he was the governor of the northern frontier?

He had a burly build, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was born with a murderous aura. His neck and hands were covered with scars from swords and knives. It was hard to imagine how he survived.

He has only four fingers on his right hand, one of which was cut off while rescuing the late emperor.

Therefore, he could be a king of a different surname, while Sima Tu could only be the Grand Commander.

"I, your humble subject, pay my respects to Your Majesty!" A dull voice sounded, and King Qi Keng of Zhenbei bowed.

Qin Yun tapped the dragon chair with his fingers and said calmly, "King Zhenbei, please stand up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I dare not get up."

Qi Keng was still kneeling. He looked up at Qin Yun, a hint of doubt appearing on his resolute and rough face. Has the weak prince back then become so majestic?

"Then tell me why you don't dare to get up?" Qin Yun smiled.

"My son went to the imperial capital for a visit and he defied and insulted Your Majesty, committing a heinous crime. As a father, I, Qi Keng, have a bond with him, so I have come here to apologize to Your Majesty!"

Qin Yun snorted coldly: "Your son did not just talk back, he insulted me!"

"He has no respect for the law and threatened to destroy my entire royal family! He even had evil intentions towards my woman!"

Hear this!

Even a man like Qi Keng who had walked out of a sea of ​​blood and corpses felt a chill in his heart, and his rough face became extremely ugly.

No matter what the crime was, Qi Keng was confident that His Majesty would give him some face.

But the beast in Qiling threatened to destroy the entire royal family, which was a taboo! As a frontier minister, commanding an army that was on par with Xiliang, he was a sensitive person.

But now...!

When Qi Keng thought of his useless son, he was so angry that he wanted to punch him to death!

Boom!

Without any hesitation, he put his forehead to the ground and kowtowed very hard, as if he was going to break the floor.

"Your Majesty, it was my failure to discipline my child properly that led to this rebellious son! I am guilty, and I will not make any defense!"

"Please don't take it personally, Your Majesty. Our Zhenbei Army swears to be loyal to the court and Your Majesty until death, and we will never have second thoughts!"

Qin Yun's eyes were indifferent, neither angry nor friendly.

He said, "King Zhenbei, I know your loyalty. I never said you have two hearts."

"It's just that...it has already happened. Qi Ling's crime is enough for him to die ten times. How do you think I should deal with it?"

As he said this, he walked down the dragon ladder and helped Qi Keng up.

Qi Keng stood up slowly. Although he was a powerful man who had risen to a high position on the battlefield, he was not stupid.

Without hesitation, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, let's handle the matter impartially. That rebellious son has committed such a serious crime, and I have nothing to say."

Qin Yun raised the corner of his mouth and looked at Qi Keng carefully.

His gray beard is like a halberd, and he is like a human iron tower. He can fight but he also has a sharp mind and can retreat in order to advance.

"If we handle things impartially, your only son will die." Qin Yun raised his eyebrows.

Qi Keng's expression changed slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and said, "He asked for it, no one else is to blame!"

The atmosphere was silent. Qin Yun did not respond, as if he was considering something.

Time passed by like this, which was extremely depressing for the King of Zhenbei. He knew that the emperor would never kill Qi Ling, so he had to give him some face at least, otherwise the Zhenbei Army would be disappointed.

Furthermore, if changes occur in Xiliang, Your Majesty must check and balance them himself.

That's why he dared to come to the imperial capital alone and secretly to accept criticism.

suddenly!

Qin Yun said with a smile: "Forget it, the King of Zhenbei has guarded the border for me, and has made great contributions. I will not kill your son for the sake of the Buddha."

Hearing this, Qi Keng breathed a sigh of relief.

But a hint of worry emerged in Tiger's eyes. Not killing him doesn't mean he will let him go. Your Majesty, there must be something else behind your words!

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"Such a great favor, I will never forget it!"

He knelt on the ground with a plop, his attitude was very good, and there was no intention of threatening or pressuring him at all.

This made Qin Yun very satisfied.

When Wang Min was banished to the cold palace, Wang Wei put all kinds of pressure on her and wielded power, which led to the final murder. But Qi Keng was much better.

"Get up first."

"Guard Tao, bring the person up."

Qin Yun gave orders one after another, leaving Qi Keng completely confused. Was he going to release his son again?

After a while, Qi Ling was brought up.

His clothes were intact and he had not been tortured, but his teeth were gone and his mouth was swollen.

This was beyond Qi Keng's expectations. He thought that his disappointing son was already dying. Not dying was the only thing he could accept.

He looked at Qin Yun, a hint of gratitude in his tiger eyes!

Qi Ling's legs went weak and he knelt on the ground with a plop, crawling to Qi Keng's feet with tears and snot.

Shouted, "Dad!"

"I was wrong. I know I was wrong. I didn't know he was the emperor!"

"Dad, save me, I don't want to die!"

"I haven't given birth to a child yet, the Qi family's incense can't be cut off by me!"
