The concubine enters the palace? The princess empties the palace and goes into exile with the baby

Two months later, Xiao Chi brought his troops to the capital of the Great Dynasty.

A large number of troops were stationed outside the city. People in the city were furious when they thought that Zhao State had invaded, and the ministers were even more terrified.

Emperor Long'an Xiao Yuanzong summoned all his ministers to the imperial study.

All the ministers already knew that the Zhao army had already attacked outside the capital. When they were suddenly summoned into the palace by the emperor, they already had the answer in their minds.

Xiao Yuanzong sat behind the imperial desk, his face raging with rage, "Those garrison guards are such rubbish! They're pissing me off!"

Lord Wu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, General Zhou of Xingyang Pass is a formidable warrior. How could he be unable to stop the Zhao army?"

"Why?" Xiao Yuanzong was furious and flipped the memorial on the table to the ground. "He is just a waste. He is like this in front of the enemy. What else can he be but a waste?"

Lord Wu knew that the emperor was angry and didn't dare say anything.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing gorgeous black clothes and a glazed golden hair crown stood out. This was Master Jiang of the Dachao Kingdom.

Jiang Guoshi said, "Your Majesty, those are not people from the State of Zhao, but Prince Heng, Prince Wenxuan, Prince Jing'an, and Prince Rui."

Xiao Yuanzong's heart suddenly jumped, and his face suddenly became extremely ugly. "What did you say?"

State Master Jiang said, "It was Prince Heng and his men who led the Zhao army to attack the Great Dynasty. Your Majesty, I have already gone to see them. It is them, without a doubt."

Xiao Yuanzong's pupils shrank and he looked at Master Jiang in surprise.

He never expected that it would be his own son and brother who led the enemy troops to attack him?

Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!

Xiao Yuanzong said: "This is not true, this is not true!"

Imperial Preceptor Jiang said, "Your Majesty, I saw it with my own eyes, it cannot be false. Song Yuanbai and his family also came with them, and even Liu Hu was among them."

"Impossible!" Xiao Yuanzong was so angry that he smashed all the jade artifacts on the table to the ground. "They can't possibly rebel against me. Absolutely impossible!"

The Song family and the Liu family have all been exiled to Fengzhou. The environment in Fengzhou is so harsh that they must have died long ago and have no chance to go to Zhao State!

Even if they were still alive, they would not have the chance to lead Zhao's troops to attack him!

This must be fake, he won't believe it.

Imperial Preceptor Jiang sighed and said, "Your Majesty, even if I could deceive the whole world, I wouldn't dare deceive you. I think it's best to come up with a foolproof plan now, otherwise, once they break into the city, it will be too late!"

Xiao Yuanzong's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Master Jiang in disbelief, "But why would they rebel against me?"

State Master Jiang said, "Your Majesty, you know why you sent Prince Wenxuan and his men to such a remote place. Besides, you confiscated the property of the Song and Liu families and exiled them, not caring about their lives. Prince Heng traveled thousands of miles to meet Song Yao. They must harbor hatred, and that's why they're rebelling. Your Majesty, you must make a choice now!"

"Haha!" Xiao Yuanzong laughed out loud. "He's my son. I never thought he would rebel against me for a woman. How despicable!"

Imperial Master Jiang asked, "Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

Xiao Yuanzong snorted coldly, "Since he wants to rebel against me for that woman, then I will never tolerate it!"

He looked at General Wu and said, "General Wu, you must lead all the troops immediately, including the 20,000 imperial guards who are spread over a kilometer. You must kill those people! And Xiao Chi, Xiao Lingan, and the others, kill them all on the spot!"

General Wu stepped forward, bowed, and said, "As you command!"

After agreeing, General Wu left immediately.

Xiao Yuanzong's eyes showed obvious anger, "I will make sure they die without a burial place!"

Imperial Preceptor Jiang hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Your Majesty, what about the tax increase..."

Originally, the people had already paid taxes a month ago, but the emperor thought that they had enough food and clothing and must have some surplus, so he asked Master Jiang to send people to collect more taxes!

Not to mention what happened in the past, the increase in taxes alone has already caused complaints from the people.

But this order came from the emperor, and they were just ordinary people, so they had no choice but to follow it.

Xiao Yuanzong snorted coldly, "They will definitely not be able to break in. Let's continue to collect taxes. If anyone refuses to pay, their property will be confiscated!"

Imperial Preceptor Jiang smiled sinisterly, "Your Majesty, I will do as you say."

He bowed and left the imperial study.

Lord Shen Yibai of the Ministry of Revenue was dressed in white and had a handsome appearance.

He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness Prince Heng and his men are among them, why don't you first summon His Royal Highness Prince Heng to the palace for a detailed discussion? If he's willing to step back, you can do whatever he wants. The people of the capital are innocent, and so are the many princes. If you insist on going to war, I'm afraid they will be the ones who will be harmed."

Seeing Xiao Yuanzong looking at him, Shen Yibai said again: "Your Majesty, since you appointed Lord Jiang as the Imperial Preceptor, many things have happened. He even slandered Prime Minister Liu. If it weren't for him, the Song and Liu families wouldn't have been exiled. If they hadn't been exiled, then His Royal Highness Prince Heng would naturally not have rebelled. Your Majesty, this Imperial Preceptor Jiang cannot be kept!"

When Xiao Yuanzong looked at Shen Yibai, his eyes immediately became more dignified without anger. "Shen Yibai, is it because I gave up your position as the Imperial Master to him that you are targeting him in every way?"

The previous imperial preceptor of the Dachao Kingdom was Shen Yibai. At that time, Imperial Preceptor Jiang was not yet an imperial preceptor, but just a small seventh-rank official. No one knew what he had done to the emperor, but the emperor doted on him especially, and gave him whatever he wanted.

Even when he said he wanted to be the imperial teacher, the emperor did not hesitate to forcibly deprive Shen Yibai of the position of imperial teacher, and then gave the position of imperial teacher to Lord Jiang in front of him.

Ever since that man surnamed Jiang became the imperial teacher, there has never been a peaceful day in the Great Dynasty.

Especially the common people. Last year, there were various natural and man-made disasters. The emperor listened to the slander of the imperial teacher and refused to provide disaster relief. He also said that those people were to be eliminated by God, and disaster relief was a waste of money.

Not only that, at the instigation of Master Jiang, the emperor even sent 100,000 troops to attack the neighboring Zhuyang Kingdom.

Shen Yibai heard that after that country was taken over, all the girls in the country disappeared for no reason.

Shen Yibai went to investigate and finally found out that this matter was related to the Blood Mist Cult.

He searched for a long time before he found out that the leader of the Blood Mist Sect was actually Master Jiang.

Shen Yibai immediately told the emperor about this matter, but the emperor didn't listen to him at all. He told him that the followers of the Blood Mist Cult had been eradicated and that Master Jiang could not be the leader of the Blood Mist Cult.

Not only that, the emperor also said that if he continued to spread false rumors to confuse the public, he would be dismissed from his post and exiled.

For the sake of his official position and his parents, Shen Yibai did not give up.

He knew very well that the current emperor was already obsessed with Master Jiang. If he continued to speak, the consequences for him would be the same as those for the Song family.

He couldn't afford to lose, so he had no choice but to do nothing and let the emperor continue to be harmed by Master Jiang.

Shen Yibai bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I say this for you and for the sake of the Great Dynasty. Now His Royal Highness Prince Heng and his men have led their troops to attack the city. If you don't listen to me, the Great Dynasty will be in danger!"
