The eldest son is fierce

*** sat on the main seat, speechless for a long time.

Zhuge Yunjue also slumped in his seat, speechless for a long time.

The refugees caused chaos in Kyoto, and then they took advantage of the chaos to seize power and ascend the throne as emperor... This was their most proud masterpiece. As long as they succeeded, they would rewrite history.

But how did it turn out like this when it was all planned?

The refugees were causing chaos in Kyoto, and the whole world ended up providing Tang Yi with free labor.

They manipulated the famine in Kyoto, but Emperor Yanwen had already obtained enough food from all over the world for Kyoto to survive the famine before them.

The refugees are causing chaos in Kyoto, and the price control in Kyoto is useless...

"Your Highness, there is a problem here, a big problem."

Zhuge Yunjue broke the silence with a cold voice.

His eyes were red. In the past, he was the one who played people around, but now he was the one being played around. This feeling was so fucking painful.

The key is that successive failures will affect his position in front of the emperor, and the title of chief strategist may be taken away at any time.

Upon hearing this, everyone in the hall turned their eyes to Zhuge Yunjue.

***'s face was cold, and he also looked up.

Zhuge Yunjue clenched his fists and said, "We have spies all over Kyoto, and even in every city and county. Your Majesty has made such a big fuss, how could we not have any information at all?"

"Someone must be helping him! His Majesty still has a hidden card."

When the group of people heard this, their faces became extremely gloomy. Do I need you to say this?

At this point, everyone knows that Emperor Yanwen must have some trump card!

Without a trump card, how could he get the food to Kyoto without anyone noticing? Without a trump card, how could he dig such a big trap for us, just waiting for us to jump in?

Stop analyzing it!

This is not analysis, you are creating panic!

"No, can you say something useful?"

Li Shanhe's face turned grim, and he said unhappily, "Everyone knows His Majesty has a trump card, but what is it?"

"What kind of secret weapon could allow such a large amount of food to be secretly transported from far and wide to Kyoto without anyone noticing?"

"In other words, what kind of power could help His Majesty accomplish these things quietly?"

"If we can't figure out these things, we won't be able to sleep peacefully in the future."

Everyone's face turned pale. How much manpower and resources would it take to transport so much food to Kyoto so quietly?

Putting aside other things for now, the manpower consumption on the road alone is not a small number.

But Yan Wen completed it silently.

How huge must this force be? Just thinking about it makes them terrified!

If we can transport the food to Kyoto quietly, we can also make them disappear in Kyoto quietly!

***After hearing what Li Shanhe said, her face became extremely ugly. She had thought a lot in that moment, but she still couldn't figure out how her dear royal brother could do this.

But these are not important anymore. What is important now is to stabilize the morale of the troops.

The emperor's move was too ruthless and had already disrupted her army's morale. If the army was unstable at this time, it would be easy for others to take advantage of the situation...

After a moment's hesitation, *** raised his hand and pinched his brow, saying, "Want to see His Majesty's cards? Simple, just force him to protect the market."

"Zhuge Yunjue, do two things next."

"First, since Tang Jing is useless, there's no need to keep him. Use him to kill Tang Yi!"

"I originally wanted to take him in as my concubine, but since he doesn't want to, then he has no choice but to die."

Zhuge Yunjue's hatred for Tang Yi had already surpassed the mountains and seas. Upon hearing Tang Yi's words, his face suddenly became fierce and he said, "Your Highness means... to trigger the imperial examination cheating case?"

Li Shanhe and the others were stunned. Imperial examination cheating? Tang Jing?

hiss!

When they came to their senses, everyone gasped.

They suddenly thought of Tang Jing's son Tang Hua, who had won the top three places in the imperial examination this year.

But facts proved that his title of "Three Top Scholars" was fake. The poems copied by the top scholar were Tang Yi's poems. Therefore, he was arrested and imprisoned by Emperor Yanwen during the Shenyuan Poetry Meeting.

Could it be that Tang Hua was not only involved in cheating in the palace examination, but also in the metropolitan examination?

If that's the case, it would be fun!

This crime alone is enough to wipe out the entire Tang family. Wouldn't it be easy to kill Tang Yi?

Thinking of this, everyone looked at ***.

But the empress smiled charmingly, but that charming smile made everyone feel cold all over. "Detonating the Imperial Examination Dance? Not enough. That woman Yan Shuangyu colluded with the Princess of Huainan, accepted bribes from the King of Huainan, and used Tang Jing's power to annex land and bully the market..."

"As long as there is any evidence of the crime, please find it for me."

"Doesn't my royal brother like to protect Tang Yi? He can protect him with one death penalty, he can protect him with ten death penalties, then I will give him a hundred death penalties, and see if he can still protect him!"

Zhuge Yunjue immediately bowed and said, "Understood. I will immediately mobilize all resources to do this."

*** nodded slightly and continued, "Second, immediately contact our people among the refugees. I don't care what methods they use, we must organize a riot as soon as possible."

"I want my brother to mobilize the forces behind him to protect the market!"

Zhuge Yunjue glanced at Li Shanhe and the other prominent families and said, "Your Highness, I have something to report to you privately."

*** raised his eyes to glance at Zhuge Yunjue, then waved his hand slightly.

Li Shanhe and other Kyoto nobles stood up, saluted, and left the hall.

Soon, only *** and Zhuge Yunjue were left in the hall.

Zhuge Yunjue immediately bowed and said, "Your Highness, we just received a report from our spies among the refugees. There are quite a few Black Armored Soldiers who have infiltrated the refugees."

"Oh?" ***'s eyes narrowed suddenly.

She rubbed the teacup lightly with her fingertips, pondered for a moment, and said, "Are you saying that the Prime Minister has taken action?"

Zhuge Yunjue shook his head and said, "Fan Yong regards his 20,000 Black Armored Army as the apple of his eye. They are his last trump card. He will not deploy the Black Armored Army unless it is absolutely necessary."

"So the Black Armor Army must have been secretly mobilized by his beloved son."

A mocking smile immediately appeared on the corner of ***'s mouth, and she said, "If that's true, then it must be God's help to me."

He looked at Zhuge Yunjue and said, "You should handle this matter yourself and find Fan Mingzhong. I think he is very willing to cooperate with us in killing Tang Yi."

Fan Mingzhong is the son of the prime minister and the little bully of Kyoto, but he was beaten black and blue by Tang Yi many times. He was even almost killed in the explosion on Jixiang Street.

With his meticulous character, how could he let Tang Yi go so easily?

Zhuge Yunjue thought the same thing and immediately said, "Yes, I'll have someone contact Fan Mingzhong right away."

*** nodded, then asked: "Where is Nanshan? How is Nanshan?"

When Zhuge Yunjue mentioned Nanshan, his expression stiffened. He said, "Tens of thousands of people have dug through the mountains for dozens of miles, but they still haven't found the so-called gold mine."

"Your Highness, is Tang Yi deliberately trying to distract us? To divert our attention?"

***'s face twitched. Emperor Yanwen and Tang Yi were really capable of doing such a thing.

Maybe he was deliberately diverting their attention to the gold mine to make it easier for him to provide disaster relief!

But it doesn’t matter.

This time, she wants to break an arm of Emperor Yanwen!

……

Tianxiang Tower, under the old locust tree.

Wei Yuan sneezed several times and looked at Wei Hai and said:

"Let all our people lie dormant and don't make any movement for a short time."

"This time, I think those spineless people will be scared to death!"
