The First Tyrant of Daxia

The next morning.

The golden light sprinkled on the square of the imperial palace, which was particularly warm and washed away the blood of the generals who were executed here last night, but it still could not wash away the murderous aura.

Overnight, the prime minister plotted a rebellion and was thrown into prison, his life or death hanging in the balance.

Han Qinhu, the general of the Right Camp, participated in a rebellion and was executed overnight. Not only was his property confiscated, but his entire family was also exiled or beheaded.

Officials and generals of all ranks who were implicated basically suffered the worst outcome.

The number of people killed this time is more than that in the assassination!

When these news spread, they quickly set off an uproar in the entire imperial capital!

The blood from the heads hung at the gate of the imperial palace has not yet dried!

All the ministers who attended the morning court saw those heads, and they were all extremely taboo and terrified at the mere mention of tigers.

In this Great Xia, in this imperial court, there is a solemn and murderous atmosphere!

Anyone with an eye can see that this is a contest between the emperor and the Wang Group.

The world in Daxia is about to change!

Qin Yun reappeared in the Taiji Hall in an extremely majestic and strong state.

There was no sign of being critically ill at all.

Wang Wei only took a glance, then closed his eyes and stood on the right. He felt extremely complicated. He thought he had been deceived. The emperor was not critically ill at all!

No minister in the court dared to speak.

It's treason, the evidence is solid, who dares to speak out?

Qin Yun's eyes swept downwards and finally looked at Wang Wei, full of coldness.

Without evidence, there is really no way to deal with him.

During this morning court session, the hall was dead silent and everyone felt insecure.

Once something like treason happens, it will involve many people.

Wang Wei did not express any opinion, and did not even care about Lin Changshu's life or death, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

When Qin Yun was in power, he dismissed more than a dozen officials, who were Lin Changshu's former subordinates and also belonged to the Wang family camp.

Then he seized the power of prime minister into his own hands and said that he would not appoint a prime minister for the time being.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the Prime Minister is plotting treason and his entire clan should be executed!"

Wei Zheng stood up, his face showing extreme anger, and he was quite disgusted with Lin Changshu.

Qin Yun glanced at Wang Wei meaningfully, and said calmly: "As for the matter of treason and the accomplices, I will personally investigate them. You don't need to worry about this, Wei Aiqing."

Many ministers in the court changed their expressions.

Especially the Wang Group!

"That's it, Ministry of Justice, you will thoroughly interrogate those accomplices and arrest any one you find guilty of!"

"I am a little tired, so please go away."

Qin Yun stood up and left immediately. He was not as furious as expected, but rather very cheerful.

Because, after all, this rebellion was all planned by him.

Wang Wei's side was the one who took the bait passively.

He walked for a distance, then suddenly stopped and looked at the many ministers who were kneeling down.

He smiled meaningfully and said, "Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. As long as you have not committed any crime, I will not punish you indiscriminately."

"If there are any of you who have done something wrong, then come to my Imperial Study and confess your mistakes. If you are sincere, I will grant you meritorious service."

As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers looked at each other, then glanced at Wang Wei, and began to think complicatedly.

Wang Wei looked at Qin Yun's back with a deep gaze and thought to himself, "What a great move! Now, I guess all the double-faced ministers in the court will turn to Your Majesty."

"The Ninth Prince is right. His Majesty has gained momentum and will be difficult to deal with."

"From now on, I'm afraid I have to keep a low profile and act carefully."

……

Leave the Tai Chi Hall.

Qin Yun came to the imperial study, where someone was waiting for him.

This person is Lin Changshu’s first wife, Zheng Ruyu, a true aristocratic woman.

She is only thirty, which is the best age for a woman. She still has charm, red lips and white teeth, and a girlish look. Her temperament is somewhat similar to Pei Yao.

The reason why Qin Yun asked someone to bring her to the imperial study was because Old Feng brought people to the Lin family last night, but found that there was one person missing from the Lin Mansion.

It was Xia Yan, Lin Changshu's favorite, who mysteriously disappeared.

He suspected that it was Wang Wei who sent someone to do it, so he wanted to learn something from Zheng Ruyu.

"Sinful woman, I pay my respects to His Majesty!"

Zheng Ruyu's voice was very pleasant, like the chirping of an oriole, but it carried a hint of nervousness and fear.

She knelt with her forehead on the ground and could not get up.

Qin Yun sat on the dragon chair and said calmly, "I will ask you some questions, you must answer truthfully. If you dare to conceal anything, I don't need to tell you the consequences."

Zheng Ruyu's face turned bitter, with a kind of sadness between his eyebrows.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I know."

Qin Yun continued, "I want to ask you, what happened to Xia Yan in the Lin Mansion? Why did she disappear mysteriously? When did she disappear?"

Zheng Ruyu said: "Your Majesty, before the rebellion last night, she left the Lin family in advance with an excuse."

Qin Yun frowned: "She left on her own?"

"Yeah." Zheng Ruyu nodded slightly.

At this time, Elder Feng stepped forward and whispered in Qin Yun's ear: "Your Majesty, I have learned from interrogation that Lin Changshu only favors Xia Yan, and the reason he married Zheng Ruyu was purely to use the power of the Zheng family to climb up."

"The two have been married for many years, but I heard from the Lin family's servants that Lin Changshu has never even entered Zheng Ruyu's room."

"Lin Changshu was tortured severely in the prison last night, but he didn't say a word. I'm afraid he knew that Xia Yan had left safely, so he was so stubborn."

Hearing this, Qin Yun's mouth twitched.

This Lin Changshu must have his brain stuck in the door. He doesn't care about such a beautiful wife, but only cares about the life and death of a concubine.

For the safety of the concubine, he even ignored the entire Lin family.

Qin Yun's eyes fell on Zheng Ruyu, and he asked, "Then do you know who are Lin Changshu's followers and followers? Who did Lin Changshu secretly meet before the rebellion?"

Zheng Ruyu looked miserable, wiped her tears and said, "Your Majesty, it's not that I won't tell you, I just really don't know."

"Although he is my husband in name only, he actually doesn't like me. He also holds a grudge against me and the Zheng family because of Xia Yan's incident."

"Later, when he became prime minister, he went even further and took that brothel girl home. He almost divorced me because of this."

"For so many years, I have never known his private affairs, and the main hall is not a place I can get involved in, so I really don't know."

Qin Yun frowned slightly and threatened: "You should know how serious Lin Changshu's crime is. According to the law, he should be executed along with his entire clan!"

"Not only you, but also the Zheng family in Hebei behind you should all be confiscated and executed!"

Zheng Ruyu’s oval face turned pale instantly and she almost fainted.

She knelt on the ground, kowtowed repeatedly, and cried, "Your Majesty, I know that I have committed a grave sin and do not ask for forgiveness, but my mother's family, the Zheng family, is an honest and upright family and has no intention of rebelling."

"Your Majesty, please look carefully and give the Zheng family a chance!"

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows: "If you want the Zheng family to be safe, then confess the truth!"

"I really don't know. I only know that he came back very late a few nights ago. As for who he met, I really don't know anything. Your Majesty, please look into it."

Zheng Ruyu hit her forehead against the ground, and her fair forehead turned red.

Qin Yun looked at her for a few times and sighed in his heart, fearing that this woman really knew nothing.

Perhaps Xia Yan knew something about the assassination and treason, but she disappeared without a trace, which led to no progress in interrogating Lin Changshu.

"Look up." Qin Yun's eyes fell on her light blue dress. She had a good figure, especially her legs, which were very slender.
