The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world
Chapter 156 They Will Definitely Rebel
When Si Zhengxuan heard the news, he couldn't believe it. The emperor protected and favored Concubine Xin, so that Xin Rui had the final say in the court and monopolized power.
Now that Concubine Xin has been banished to the cold palace, the Prime Minister's power will inevitably weaken and disintegrate step by step.
But he didn't expect that the person who accomplished such a great thing was actually his daughter.
"Dad, it's cold, why don't you go back to the house?" Si Yan walked forward and held his father's hand. Si Zhengxuan's hands were a little cold.
"I'll be waiting for you here." Si Zhengxuan looked at his daughter with excitement in his eyes. He couldn't help but turn his head and wipe away his tears. "Have you eaten? Father has prepared a table of delicious dishes..."
Si Yan grinned: "No, I just happened to be hungry."
Si Zhengxuan smiled and did not expose the girl. When the coachman came back and said that the young lady went to Yayue Pavilion, Si Zhengxuan knew that the girl had gone to eat.
He couldn't help but have someone prepare a table of delicious food, waiting for her to come back...
"Your Uncle Ling is here too." Si Zhengxuan stepped aside, revealing Ling Yuefeng standing behind him.
Si Yan had seen Ling Yuefeng a long time ago. The moment Ling Yuefeng saw Si Yan, he cried even harder than her father.
General Ling even hid behind his old friend Si Zhengxuan, crying loudly.
It was all thanks to this girl that Mo Han became the commander of the guards in Shangjing City and was named the general of the Left Guard Mansion.
Si Yan smiled slightly: "Uncle Ling, long time no see."
Before Si Yan went to the border, he saw Ling Yuefeng. At that time, his eyes were dull, but now he looks much better and in better health.
"Yeah, it's been a long time since we last met, little girl..." Ling Yuefeng wiped away the tears from his face and tried his best to calm himself down. "You shouldn't call me little girl anymore, you should call me Master Si Yan."
As he spoke, Ling Yuefeng bowed to Si Yan. Si Yan quickly supported Ling Yuefeng: "Uncle Ling, you are embarrassing me. I am always that little girl..."
"Hahaha!" Ling Yuefeng and Si Zhengxuan both laughed until tears came out.
This girl has become successful now, but what she says is still so kind and doesn't make people feel distant at all.
"Let's go back and have dinner." Si Zhengxuan pulled his old friend and his daughter at the same time.
Si Yan turned around and shouted to Ling Mohan, who had appeared at the door out of nowhere, "It's time for dinner, why don't you hurry up?"
Ling Mohan then walked forward, bowed to Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng, and groaned "hmm".
The four of them entered the main hall together. Ling Yuefeng asked about Si Qingshan. Si Zhengxuan said, "Qingshan has been busy with official duties recently, so we won't wait for him. I asked someone to save some food for him."
His Aunt Lan never let him down. Even if he came back early in the morning, there would be hot meals waiting for him.
Si Zhengxuan had a banquet set up in the main hall today, which seemed quite formal. The table was full of delicious dishes and there were two pots of fine wine that had been collected for many years.
Ling Mohan stood up automatically, poured a glass of wine for each of the two elders, and poured a cup of tea for Si Yan.
Si Yan looked at Ling Yuefeng beside her father and chuckled softly, "Uncle Ling, your niece should have come to visit you earlier, but I'm busy. Please forgive me, Uncle Ling."
Ling Yuefeng smiled and said, "How can you say that? Uncle Ling can't even finish all the ginseng you sent him."
Si Yan smiled and said, "As long as it's good for Uncle Ling's health, it's worth it."
"Hahahaha..." Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng both burst into laughter.
Si Yan had never been to the General's Mansion, not because she was busy, but because she knew that Ling Yuefeng's illness was a heart disease, and only he could get out of it himself.
Now that Ling Yuefeng is willing to leave the mansion, this is a good thing. Soon, the injustice of the General's Mansion will be cleared.
Ling Yuefeng said with deep emotion: "Little girl, it's all your credit that the Imperial Noble Consort was banished to the cold palace today."
"I don't deserve it." Si Yan said politely, "Prime Minister Xin and her party have committed many evil deeds and are digging their own graves."
Ling Yuefeng praised repeatedly: "You must be really good, otherwise you wouldn't be able to shake them."
Si Zhengxuan couldn't help but speak up: "Don't mention it, if it weren't for you, no one in the court would be able to shake them. Father has fought them for so many years, but he couldn't even move a finger of theirs."
Since there were no outsiders here, Si Zhengxuan couldn't help but praise his daughter.
This girl's abilities really impressed even her father.
"When her father says that, her daughter's tail is so high up in the sky."
"Hahaha..." Several people burst into laughter, and Ling Mohan couldn't help but smile.
This made him feel like he was back in his childhood, the two of them chatting and laughing without any grudges.
Ling Mohan gently picked up the serving chopsticks and picked up some of Si Yan's favorite dishes.
The two elders were used to it and didn't say anything.
"Mo Han also helped a lot today." Si Yan said with a smile.
Ling Mohan paused and looked up at Si Yan: "I didn't enter the palace today."
Si Yan said softly, "When I ordered the Imperial Guards to search the Imperial Concubine's Palace, the commander of the guards, Gan Li, was hesitant, but it was Han Hu who supported me."
Ling Mohan didn't say anything. Han Hu was a good brother to him. He was a few years older than him, steady in his work, and they had a very close relationship.
After this girl became a first-rank female official in front of the emperor, he asked Han Hu to take care of her.
Si Zhengxuan looked at Ling Mohan with a smile: "Mohan is a capable and good boy."
Si Zhengxuan has always felt very regretful. Mo Han grew up with this girl, but it was a pity that they were not destined to be together.
Ling Yuefeng already knew that the two of them couldn't be together, so he couldn't help but change the subject: "Girl, there are rumors in the palace that the Imperial Concubine poisoned His Majesty. Is this true?"
"It's true, Uncle Ling." Si Yan nodded.
Si Zhengxuan's tone sank slightly: "They are too bold."
Ling Yuefeng took a deep breath and frowned, "Your Majesty has been very kind to the Xin family. Why would Concubine Xin do this?"
"So that Prince Xin can ascend the throne as soon as possible." Si Yan said simply.
The main hall fell silent, and Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng were both silent for a while.
Si Yan spoke softly, "The Imperial Noble Consort and the Prime Minister originally wanted His Majesty to enthrone Prince Xin as the Crown Prince, but His Majesty has been hesitant to act. They are worried that things might change, and as time goes by, they are worried about the consequences. Therefore, they have turned to poisoning His Majesty. If something happens to His Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort will control the harem, and the Prime Minister will control the court. It will be no problem for them to support Prince Xin to ascend the throne."
Si Yan paused and continued, "Now that the Imperial Concubine has been banished to the cold palace, their path has been cut off. They may choose a more extreme path."
Si Zhengxuan stared at his daughter and said, "Girl, are you saying that they might rebel?"
"Yes, they will certainly rebel, and it won't be long before they rebel."
Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng exchanged a glance, and Si Zhengxuan spoke solemnly, "Don't worry, girl. Although His Majesty is incompetent, he still has the troops of the capital camp under his control. The chances of the Prime Minister and his men rebelling are slim."
"Father, the Prime Minister has the power of Beimang Country behind him. The Xin family has been able to develop over the years because of the strong human and financial support behind it."
"The Xin family actually sold out the country?" Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"That's right." Si Yan nodded, "But father and Uncle Ling don't have to worry too much, I will take care of everything..."
Si Zhengxuan looked at his daughter deeply, and couldn't help but secretly wonder how to deal with the coming storm.
Ling Mohan said softly: "To put it in human terms, the Shangjing City Guard and the Zuowei Mansion's army are all under my control."
Although he was just an ordinary guard over the years, he did not work in vain in the Shangjing Guard.
He and Feng Yu of the Shangjing Guard are as close as brothers, and now he almost controls the power of the entire Shangjing Guard.
Si Yan nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't be polite with you. Let's rest for a few days first, and then get Xin Rui out of power."
