The First Tyrant of Daxia

At this time, the new chief of the imperial guards, Tao Yang, asked for a meeting.

This was a young military officer who was ostracized by his superiors and felt frustrated, so Qin Yun promoted him.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu has woken up." He said softly.

Qin Yun opened his hands wide, and the memorial in his hand fell to the ground with a bang. The word "surprise" was beyond words!

At that moment, he finally let go of his worry!

In a flash, he rushed out and rushed to the Yangxin Palace.

Many palace maids in the bedroom showed long-lost smiles, and more than a dozen imperial doctors who had been detained here also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Concubine Shu has woken up. She is no longer in danger of death. She just needs to rest."

"Blessings, Madam!"

A group of imperial doctors and palace maids knelt down and congratulated Qin Yun.

Qin Yun only had eyes for the woman lying on the bed. He strode over and grasped Concubine Xiao Shufei's hand, which was icy cold.

"Xiang'er, how do you feel?" he asked excitedly.

Concubine Xiao Shu still looked very weak. She raised her dry lips and forced a smile: "Brother Yun, I am much better now. I don't feel any pain anymore."

Her sensible and intellectual appearance made people feel extremely distressed. Qin Yun held her hand tightly and kissed the corner of her lips.

He kept muttering, "You scared me to death. I'm fine as long as I'm safe. I'm fine as long as I'm safe!"

Xiao Shufei had escaped death and was in a good mood. She stroked Qin Yun's face with her hand and smiled softly, "Brother Yun, Xiang'er will still accompany you to rule the world."

Qin Yun nodded, a smile appearing on his tense face.

"Xiang'er, don't worry, I will get to the bottom of this matter. No matter who the murderer is, I will make him pay a heavy price!"

After saying this, Qin Yun's eyes revealed a bone-chilling coldness!

"Brother Yun, will my brother be in danger?" Concubine Xiao Shufei suddenly asked worriedly, her brows furrowed.

Anyone who dares to assassinate in the palace must not be a simple person. Even a fool knows that she is afraid that Xiao Jian will also meet with an accident.

Qin Yun shook his head, sat on the bed and gently stroked her smooth forehead: "Xiang'er, don't worry, Xiao Jian has more than 10,000 soldiers around him, no villain can get close to him."

"Not long ago, the Ministry of War received a reply from the Left Camp. The army has arrived at Yangcheng in Jiannan Road and will reach Cangshan in a few days. Everything is normal."

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao Shu's pretty face relaxed a little.

"That's good." After saying that, she struggled to get up.

Qin Yun pressed her down and said, "Xiang'er, you are seriously injured and have not recovered yet. Lie down first and don't get up."

A trace of pain flashed across Concubine Xiao Shu's brow. Moving around had affected her bandaged wound, so she had to lie down obediently.

She raised her head and asked nervously, "Brother Yun, do I have a scar on my back?"

Qin Yun was silent. The imperial physician told him that the sword wound was very deep and recovery would definitely leave a scar, which would be very long and hideous.

For such a beautiful woman, having such a big scar on her body is still a knot in her heart even if it is not exposed.

He could only comfort her: "Xiang'er, don't worry, I have ordered people to find the best scar-removing herbs. When your wound heals, we will remove your scar."

Hearing this, Concubine Xiao Shu nodded.

Then she quickly forced out a smile, as bright as an angel, refreshing people's minds, and said firmly: "As long as Your Majesty is safe, I will be satisfied, even if Xiang'er is cut into pieces!"

Qin Yun was moved and couldn't help but reach out and gently pinch her face.

How can you not love such a woman?

Soon after, news spread that Concubine Xiao Shufei was not dead.

The imperial doctors who were kept in the palace two days ago were also released. They were detained at that time because they were afraid that the mastermind behind the scenes would find out that Concubine Xiao Shufei was not dead and cause trouble again.

This news is not sensational.

Some people had long speculated that Concubine Shu might have been assassinated and was not dead.

Qin Yun stayed by Concubine Xiao Shufei's bedside the entire afternoon, never leaving.

He was even the one who fed the patient medicine and wiped the patient's body.

These things deeply moved Concubine Xiao Shufei. The emperor personally served her. I'm afraid Wang Min didn't have such treatment before, right?

the next day.

There was total silence in the Tai Chi Hall.

Your Majesty has ordered the killing of hundreds of people in the past two days, like a demon. No one wants to suffer the consequences.

Qin Yun tapped the dragon throne with his fingers, glanced at Wang Wei on the right, and said with a smile: "My dear Lord Wang."

Wang Wei's eyes flashed, he stood up, bowed and said, "Your Majesty."

"I wonder what Lord Wang thinks about the assassination?" Qin Yun asked calmly.

Wang Wei raised his head with a calm expression: "The murderer was so bold that he dared to assassinate the emperor in the palace. Killing all his clans is not enough to relieve our hatred."

"In addition, the defense of the imperial palace and the imperial guards all bear great responsibility!"

"The emperor is the foundation of a country. If your majesty is accidentally injured, it will be an irreparable loss!"

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? How did Lord Wang know that the assassins were not coming for me?"

Wang Wei was experienced and did not reveal any flaws. He said bluntly: "My son Wang Ming was also among those protecting the emperor that day. He deduced this based on the scene."

This is a bad excuse, but there's nothing wrong with it.

Qin Yun hated Wang Wei to death and always felt that Wang Wei was a smiling fox.

"Then Lord Wang, Lord Lin, and all the beloved ministers in the court, do you think that my recent reshuffle of the imperial palace defenses and the imperial guards is correct?"

The ministers looked at each other, and then knelt together.

"Your Majesty, what you did was reasonable and lawful, and you have even shown mercy to many people!"

"The city defenses really need to be strengthened!"

"The emperor is wise."

"..."

Looking at the ministers below who all agreed, Qin Yun smiled with satisfaction.

If the assassination had not been so heinous, he would probably not have had the chance to clear out the palace defenses and replace them with his own people.

By accident, the mastermind behind the scenes helped me.

Qin Yun took a deep breath and said the most important thing about today's court session.

"Everyone, the assassination case has been solved."

"However, I will promote the military examination and personally select capable generals to lead the Azure Dragon Guard to protect my safety!"

Upon hearing this, all the ministers fell silent.

In the past, they would have definitely all jumped out to oppose it.

But at this time, none of them dared to object.

First, your Majesty has a legitimate reason and has already encountered an assassination attempt, so it is understandable that he personally selects the top martial arts student to control the Qinglong Guard.

Second, Qin Yun said it very clearly. Only when I promoted the military examination did this case come to light. Otherwise, the investigation would have to continue!

The consequence of continuing the investigation is that more officials will be held accountable.

Your Majesty and the Imperial Concubine were assassinated. Strictly speaking, more than half of the ministers in the court will be imprisoned and dismissed from their posts.

The court fell into deathly silence.

Qin Yun called out the Grand Tutor Wei Zheng, a veteran of three dynasties, and said, "Master Wei, do you have any opinions now?"

Wei Zheng was a well-known pedantic old man who even dared to scold the emperor. He frowned and said after a moment's hesitation: "Your Majesty, in this case, the military examination is necessary."

"But I think there are many talented young men among the royal family and nobles. Why don't we choose a martial arts champion from among them?"
