The whole family travels through the book, the plot is broken but the characters are not

After the "Ten Crimes Questioned to Emperor Zhaowen" and the "Jiyang Declaration of Independence" were introduced into Luo City, Emperor Zhaowen first cursed angrily and then became frightened.

He felt that he was wronged. He admitted to some things, but most of the things were not his doing. He didn't even ask more questions for fear of getting into trouble.

But the shameless Lin Palace still blamed all of this on him.

In panic, Emperor Zhaowen went to Kunning Palace first, but was told that the queen was ill.

Emperor Zhaowen went to Cikang Palace again. Empress Dowager Chen, who had already known the news, was angry.

Empress Dowager Chen now finally realized that her communication with the outside world seemed to have been blocked.

After discussing for a while, the mother and son decided to send someone to seek help.

However, Kong Haibo and Hong Yang disappeared one after another, and Laiyang Pavilion is now under surveillance. There are not many killers left in Laiyang Pavilion, and they have too few people to use.

The next morning, all the ministers arrived at the court early, and everyone had a dark spot under their eyes.

No one spoke, but everyone's face was filled with panic.

If Jiyang becomes independent, who will resist the three kingdoms in the north?

Also, is the death of the previous emperor really related to Emperor Zhaowen?

Prime Minister Mu had a few more white hairs on his head. Besides panic, there was a bit more pain in his eyes than in others.

Emperor Zhaowen, who had always been active, had not appeared on the dragon throne for the first time in history.

Prince Li Ruijing of Yan County is the Minister of the Ministry of Rites. He is not required to attend court, but he is here today.

His face was pale, his eyes were red and swollen, his hair was disheveled, and he stared straight at the dragon throne.

It was not until the morning hour that Emperor Zhaowen came to the Taiji Hall under the repeated urging of his court officials.

Before Emperor Zhaowen even sat down, Li Ruijing asked with red eyes, "Your Majesty, I want to ask how the late emperor passed away."

Emperor Zhaowen looked grim. He was already in a very bad mood, and when he was questioned right away, he couldn't help but kick the imperial desk away.

"Prince Yan, what do you mean? Are you doubting me? The traitors and villains of Prince Lin's Mansion, how dare you believe their words?"

Emperor Zhaowen's roar echoed in the Taiji Hall.

Li Ruijing stared at him intently, "Your Majesty, why is it that you want to attack Jiyang at this time?"

"Traitor, I will strike whenever I please. Do I need to choose a day?"

"Traitor? Ha, this traitor has protected Dayu for over twenty years!"

"Prince of Yan, are you getting senile? Prince Lin killed 100,000 people in Wuping County last year. I want to avenge them!"

Li Ruijing raised his head and laughed: "Then why didn't you fight last year? Why did you withhold military supplies and relief grain from Jiyang? Aren't the people of Jiyang citizens of Dayu?"

Emperor Zhaowen's expression was extremely grim. "Prince of Yan, don't take advantage of your seniority! Do you think that as a member of the royal family you can dictate to me?"

"Haha, it's true! Those bandits from Mount Pulu and the assassins from Shadow Pavilion are really your men?"

"Prince of Yan, if you dare to be so rude again, I will hold you accountable right now!"

Li Ruijing paid no attention to Emperor Zhaowen's threats and continued to ask, "Were you responsible for Prince Qing's assassination? Did you also poison Prince Lin? What exactly happened to Concubine Qi's death?"

"Someone, drag the Prince of Yan out!"

"Your Majesty, you are wrong!"

Li Ruijing's shrill cry filled the court officials with grief and fear.

When they first learned that the late emperor had passed the throne to Prince An, they were disappointed and questioned it.

Later, on the day Emperor Zhaowen ascended the throne, he told all of them that he knew he was not talented enough, so he would not change any of the policies of the previous emperor. The ministers did not need to worry about the new emperor and the new ministers. The people recognized by the previous emperor were the people he recognized.

Those words changed many people's views of Emperor Zhaowen.

The mediocre and almost transparent King An did not seem to be completely useless. Perhaps this was why the previous king chose him.

But they soon discovered that Emperor Zhaowen was a man who said one thing and did another.

What he said was completely different from what he did.

Although the ministers were disappointed, many of them were secretly delighted.

Emperor Zhaowen was easily influenced and liked to hear nice things. It was much easier to please him than to please the late emperor.

Moreover, after Emperor Zhaowen ascended the throne, not only did their salaries increase, but their private income was also much more than before.

When Li Ruijing was dragged out, another eunuch came to report that former Prime Minister Liu Zhiheng, Cabinet Grand Secretary Song Wuming, former Minister of Revenue Wang Wenxuan, Minister of Personnel Li Jiangnan and others requested to meet with Emperor Zhaowen.

"No! They are no longer members of the court. Just stay at home and enjoy your retirement!" Emperor Zhaowen roared unhappily.

Prime Minister Mu wiped his tears with his sleeves and said nothing.

Emperor Zhaowen's body, which had been shaking with anger at Li Ruijing, gradually recovered.

The eunuch carefully lifted up the imperial desk and then carefully retreated.

"Jiyang dared to declare independence. I will never forgive Prince Lin's Palace. This time, Lin Pingyuan only brought one million troops. Even if he takes Jiyang, it will take some time. I have already issued an imperial decree, ordering the Southern Border Army and the Eastern Border Army to provide support. The Ministry of Revenue should prepare the military supplies, and the Ministry of War..."

"No, Your Majesty."

Minister of War Chang Jingyu's chest heaved violently as he listened.

"Nanlai and Dongling are watching closely. The Southern Border Army and the Eastern Border Army must not move!"

Emperor Zhaowen stared at Chang Jingyu coldly.

"My decision has been made."

"emperor……"

Chang Jingyu wanted to persuade him again, but the Minister of Revenue Zhang Jingzhi tugged at the corner of his clothes. In the end, he could only shake his head and sigh, and stopped talking.

Emperor Zhaowen was feeling irritated because most of the generals in the court had old ties with Prince Lin, and there were very few people he could use.

I just hope that old man Tian Zhonghe and Guan Shannian can obey the transfer order.

He didn't want to use his trump card unless it was absolutely necessary.

"I'm tired, let's retire."

"Your Majesty, I have a report."

Yang Ziliang, the Minister of Rites, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.

Prime Minister Mu glanced at Yang Ziliang. The memorial submitted at this time must be a big deal. Why didn't Yang Ziliang tell him what it was in advance?

Emperor Zhaowen rubbed his eyebrows.

"what's up?"

Yang Ziliang's eyes were red and his voice was trembling: "Ji Yang, another letter to the world has been issued."

Emperor Zhaowen kicked the newly placed imperial desk over again and roared, "What do they want to do now?"

Yang Ziliang submitted the copied "Letter to the World".

Emperor Zhaowen opened it and his face turned pale. "Nonsense! They are talking nonsense! Slander, this is slander..."

Emperor Zhaowen ran out of the Taiji Hall in anger, his trembling body almost falling to the ground.

Others were puzzled and asked Yang Ziliang what was going on.

Yang Ziliang looked even more embarrassed than Li Ruijing just now.

Without saying a word, he staggered out of the palace.

While the "Ten Crimes Questioned to Emperor Zhaowen" and the "Jiyang Declaration of Independence" were still being discussed in full swing, another even more explosive news spread rapidly.

The "residual incense" that the late emperor was poisoned by and the "sandalwood" that King Lin was poisoned by were both secret poisons from Nanlai.

The Empress Dowager of Cikang Palace, Chen Xinrong, was a descendant of the Nanlai royal family.

Emperor Zhaowen and Crown Prince Li Zhenyu both had Nanlai blood.

Nanlai's royal bloodline is pure, and there's a fingernail-sized crimson dot on their left hip...

At Prince Lin's mansion in Jiyang, Han Qingyun calculated the time. The "Letter to the World" should have reached Luocheng, but Lin Pingyuan's army should not have received the news yet. He had to find a way to cause chaos on the other side.

Before Kong Haibo and Hong Yang spoke, Han Qingyun and Li Jiren had no idea about Chen Xinrong's identity. They only vaguely knew that he might be related to the Nanlai people.

Until a few days ago, news came from Los Angeles.

Sheng Yinan, the daughter of the Marquis of Yongning, was forced to become the concubine of Crown Prince Li Zhenyu.

The original wedding date was early December, but Sheng Yinan had her hair cut and went to a nunnery in Luocheng in mid-November.
