The First Tyrant of Daxia

"This matter is different, so it's better to think about it more carefully."

"Qian Lin had just been assassinated, and the emperor made such a big fuss about it. Isn't it suspicious?"

Situ Qiangwei smiled contemptuously and said with full vigor, "It is precisely because Qian Lin was assassinated that the emperor was furious, so he was in a hurry to show his attitude."

"The young emperor is still a child. He just suffered a loss and couldn't save face, so he did it on purpose to show it to the world."

"Oh, it's just bluffing confidence, you're deceiving yourself!"

Another giant spoke up, his voice hoarse: "Since it has come to this, we don't have to worry about our reputation anymore."

"It was the Emperor who started the war."

"The dignity of the family cannot be destroyed. It was like this a hundred years ago, and it will be like this a hundred years from now. Whoever touches it will die!!"

Someone yelled, "That's right, why do you care so much!"

"First, let's put those who surrendered to the emperor and are against us on trial."

"Once the Xiang family enters the imperial capital, it will be too late and the Li family will become a laughing stock."

"Why not strike on the way to Xiang's house?"

"I agree!"

"I agree too!"

"..."

In the end, the nine major clans passed the action with a vote of seven to two.

They seem to be extremely united.

They were determined to work together to suppress Qin Yun's anger.

Not long after, the news coming from the Xiang family in Jiangbei made the nine major clans put aside their last bit of doubts.

The Xiang family is preparing to go to the imperial capital to receive the title and has already prepared the itinerary.

Two days later, the main members of the family gathered and set off for the imperial capital together!

The night before.

Situ Lin did not disappoint Qin Yun's expectations and used his status in the Situ family to obtain accurate information.

The imperial study room is brightly lit.

"Hahaha!"

"The capture of Situ Lin is truly a stroke of genius!"

"In just a few days, he brought me huge benefits!"

Seeing Qin Yun laughing, the cabinet ministers, Feng Lao, Chang Hong and others, who were waiting here solemnly and waiting for orders, also smiled.

"Your Majesty, I wonder what news Situ Lin has brought?" Chang Hong asked with a bow.

Qin Yun stood up suddenly, his eyes sharp as he said, "They are ready to take action."

"The time is tomorrow at noon, in a forest on the bank of Lingjiang River."

"They have deployed a lot of people, hoping to capture the Xiang family in one fell swoop and establish their authority."

Everyone's eyes turned cold.

"After assassinating Qian Lin, he came to assassinate the Xiang family again. This is completely against the will of the law, and he doesn't care about the existence of the emperor and the law!"

"Your Majesty, give the order."

"Tomorrow, those people from the aristocratic families will never come back!"

"..."

Qin Yun put his hands behind his back and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Not just the killers, we must catch them all."

"I want more survivors, and enough human and material evidence to incriminate the powerful families!"

"Do you understand?"

Everyone bowed and said, "Your Majesty, we understand!"

A family cannot be destroyed by killing one or a hundred people. What is needed is constant suppression to erase its reputation, power, and foundation!

"Very good. Wuming, you take twenty Jinyiwei to go there tonight and wait for an opportunity to capture the assassin leader."

"Chang Hong, take a thousand elite imperial guards with you and fight together, encircling and attacking from both sides."

"Kou Tianxiong, you take 5,000 cavalrymen and bring my imperial decree tomorrow, and be ready to catch the big fish at any time!"

"As for me, I will go with you..."

"..."

At night, many people secretly left the palace, but they climbed over eaves and walls and were not discovered.

After arranging tomorrow's tasks, Qin Yun came to Qingxin Pavilion, a corner of the palace, alone with another letter in his hand.

It was as deserted and indifferent as ever here, as if it were a neighbor's yard without a single servant.

There was a knock on the door.

Si Qing's figure emerged in the house and lit the candle.

"Who?"

Si Qing's tone sounded extremely confused, but she was not afraid either. After all, this was a heavily guarded imperial palace.

creak.

She opened a corner of the door, and in the moonlight, her bare face was stunned.

"His Majesty!"

Why would he suddenly come here in the middle of the night?

Qin Yun glanced at her. She must have fallen asleep just now, as she was wearing a thin blue embroidered cloak.

Her hair is draped over her shoulders and her facial features are graceful.

There was a faint fragrance lingering around her collarbone, as if exuding a woman's scent.

"Going to bed so early?"

"I'm here to deliver a letter to you." Qin Yun raised the envelope in his hand.

Hearing this, Si Qing reacted and immediately opened the door, tightening her cloak with her delicate hands.

It was a little embarrassing, after all, she was only wearing undergarments.

"letter?"

"mine?"

She asked with a little surprise.

Qin Yun nodded: "Your uncle's letter, he provided me with some information, and there is also a letter from you home."

Hearing this, Si Qing smiled. At this point, her only uncle had become her hope.

I took the letter and resisted the urge to open it.

Hesitantly he opened the door: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the letter. Would you like to come in and sit down?"

Her beautiful eyes flickered and she was very embarrassed.

It would be impolite not to invite you, and disrespectful to Your Majesty.

Invitation, a woman feels embarrassed just thinking about inviting a man into the house late at night.

Qin Yun took a look inside the house. The furnishings were simple, but very neat and feminine.

"never mind."

"The letter has been delivered, and it's time for me to leave."

Si Qing didn't try to persuade him to stay, but she felt something was wrong, so she chased him out and said, "Your Majesty, let me see you off."

Qin Yun looked back and saw her running towards him, her steps graceful and graceful. She had an indescribable melancholy beauty, and her indifferent temperament made her truly unique.

"No need to send me off. This is the Imperial Palace, my home. How could I forget the way home?"

Si Qing explained: "That's true, but I live in the palace and have no worries about food and drink. I feel embarrassed."

"If you don't know this little bit of etiquette, you deserve to beg on the street."

Qin Yun frowned and said, "As the ruler of a country, why would I care about that little bit of food money?"

"Your Majesty is so gracious that he doesn't care, but I do."

"I am a useless person, but I live in the quietest place in the palace and eat the emperor's food. I feel guilty about it." Si Qing said with his head down.

Qin Yun said helplessly: "Your uncle helped me a lot. Just for this, you can live and eat for free in this palace for the rest of your life."

The night breeze blew on her face, and Si Qing's beautiful hair fluttered, exuding a faint fragrance.

She didn't say anything, just smiled.

The two walked side by side.

Qin Yun asked again: "Have you thought about what you will do in the future?"

"Then don't worship the Buddha statue. It's all a lie. I don't believe you can let go of the kindness of your uncle in raising you."

She said: "I haven't thought about it yet..."

"What can I do as a woman?"

She smiled bitterly. In her opinion, the most important thing she should do is to take care of her husband and children, but fate played a trick on her.

"I grew up in a big mansion, never worried about food and clothing. It was not until this period that I realized how difficult life was."

Hearing this, Qin Yun glanced at her and found that there were many calluses and wounds on her hands.

"I heard that you don't want servants to serve you, and you even want to wash your clothes yourself. Why bother?"
