The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"The word 'rest' is no longer relevant to me."

"Your Majesty..." Song Zhaoruo hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

"By the way, what's the status of the matter I asked you to handle?" Ji Wuxin waved his hand, indicating that Song Zhaoruo didn't need to say anything more.

Song Zhaoruo: "Your Majesty, all my people have been dispatched. The Right Chancellor has not left his residence. Some officials have gone to his residence, but they are all court ministers and there are no suspicious persons."

"In that case, let him die."

Ji Wuxin shook her head, waved her phoenix robe, and spoke in an icy tone.

Song Zhaoruo didn't dare to say anything. When it came to the execution of court officials, she could only listen from the sidelines and dared not express her opinion.

"By imperial decree, the Right Chancellor has been found to have colluded with the Green Turban Army and exchanged intelligence with the Kushan Empire, plotting a rebellion. His rebellious intentions are blatantly obvious. The evidence is now sufficient. His entire clan will be exterminated to set the record straight!"

When Ji Wuxin issued this decree, his expression was very calm, as if the Right Chancellor was just an ant in his eyes, someone he could kill at will.

No matter what your thoughts or schemes are, if I think you deserve to die, then you must die, and everyone connected to you will not escape!

evidence?

Do we need this thing?

Was this emperor just a figurehead?

If evidence is needed to execute a minister, then the emperor is too weak!

“Your Majesty, the Right Chancellor can be killed, but he has many supporters. If we act rashly without evidence, it may cause trouble.”

Ji Wuxin felt that evidence was irrelevant, but Song Zhaoruo felt that doing so was too risky, since the Right Chancellor was, after all, the prime minister of a single dynasty.

Ji Wuxin shook his head: "Evidence? You've investigated for so long, you must have some evidence, right? If you don't have any, then all your subordinates are useless."

"My slave knows the crime!"

Song Zhaoruo was so frightened that she hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Ji Wuxin's meaning was already very clear: no matter what, no matter what evidence you present, we will take action.

Even if the Left Prime Minister simply stepped on an ant and killed it, it could become evidence to exterminate his entire family!

It wasn't just the Right Chancellor, but also his entire network of supporters.

"Any leads on the force that Huang Feihu mentioned that's secretly controlling things?"

Ji Wuxin asked calmly.

“When I went to investigate before, I found that the location responsible for making communications had caught fire, and there were multiple corpses inside…”

"So, once a person dies and the house burns down, this connection is severed?" Ji Wuxin asked.

"Your Majesty, this servant knows her crime!" Song Zhaoruo didn't know what to say, so she could only kowtow and admit her guilt.

However, Ji Wuxin did not blame him; instead, she let out a soft sigh.

"What did Grand Tutor Shen say?"

When the name Grand Tutor Shen was mentioned, Ji Wuxin's voice seemed to carry a sense of vicissitude.

"Grand Tutor Shen's stance remains unchanged; he will support the royal bloodline and help the royal family quell the rebellion!"

Song Zhaoruo said.

"Grand Tutor Shen is still so loyal."

Upon hearing this answer, Ji Wuxin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"You may leave. First, wipe out the entire line of the Right Chancellor! Do you really think I would show you any mercy? I know better than anyone how I gained this empire!"

Ji Wuxin's voice regained its murderous intent!

"Yes!"

Song Zhaoruo dared not say anything more and withdrew to carry out the order to kill.

Soon, a group of soldiers in black armor set off from the palace and headed in a grand procession toward the Right Chancellor's residence.

Of course, besides the Right Chancellor, there were also a group of his faction's henchmen.

When a woman gets ruthless, she won't hold back in doing anything.

Especially the Empress who knew her days were numbered!

……

King's capital.

late at night.

The sound of iron hooves shattered the peaceful dreams of countless people.

The Right Prime Minister had already fallen asleep, but the loud noise of the gate being blasted open startled him awake.

Immediately afterwards, countless black-clad armored soldiers charged in.

All the guards and servants who stepped forward to stop him, or those who did not, were all killed with a single sword stroke, leaving no one alive!

"You bastard! Don't you know where you are? How dare you lead your troops to commit violence!"

The steward of the Prime Minister's residence was furious. Although the Right Prime Minister had been stripped of his military power, he was still the Prime Minister!

"Where is this? This is the den of traitors! Kill them all! Arrest them all! Don't let that old scoundrel, the Right Chancellor, escape!"

The leading armored soldier showed no mercy; with a flash of his sword, the steward of the Prime Minister's residence was killed on the spot!

Song Zhaoruo slowly walked in through the gate and said coldly, "Don't let a single one escape! Kill them all on the spot!"

"Yes!"

In an instant, the Prime Minister's residence was filled with the glint of swords and the screams of agony!

The Right Chancellor had already gotten up. Listening to the shouts of battle, screams, and the slowly rising flames outside, he couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect you to be right this time! You've won this time! But sooner or later, I will turn the tables on you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the bookshelf next to him suddenly slid open to both sides, revealing a hidden door inside.

A figure slowly emerged from the hidden door.

This figure looks exactly like the Right Chancellor!

"Lord Wang, please don't forget what you promised me!"

"Rest assured, I have never broken my promise!"

After a brief exchange, the figure walked outside.

A hint of emotion flashed in the Right Chancellor's eyes. He then put on his robe, stood up, and walked into the hidden door, quickly disappearing from sight.

……

"My lord, a letter has arrived from the capital."

Shen Li found Jia Daoshi early in the morning, holding a letter in her hand, which had flown in from the capital of Da Jing.

"The capital city is about to undergo a major upheaval."

Jia Daoshi poked his head out from under the covers, looking puzzled: "Has the weather changed? Is it thundering or snowing?"

"Or is the Empress about to pass away again?"

"Neither." Shen Li shook her head: "The Empress has begun a great purge. The Right Chancellor and his cronies were all killed overnight. The capital was littered with corpses and rivers of blood!"

"Hmm? The Empress has begun the purge?" Jia Daoshi was not surprised to hear this news.

Shen Li nodded: "That's right. Because this was a case of exterminating nine generations of a family, more than ten thousand heads were chopped off overnight, and the entire capital was shrouded in the stench of blood!"

"So ruthless?" Yi Qianxiao also poked her head out from under the covers. She was the one who slept with Jia Daoshi last night.

Ten thousand people were killed in one night, and this is in the capital, not on the battlefield!

Shen Li's expression was also very unpleasant.

Jia Daoshi, on the other hand, remained calm.

This concerns the position of the emperor, so the death of so few people is nothing. I believe that many people died when Ji Wuxin ascended the throne.

Moreover, given the current chaotic state of the Great Jing Dynasty, the deaths of over ten thousand people are far from sufficient.

The Empress, in particular, is probably already in a berserk state.

He had already noticed something was wrong with Ji Wuxin when he was in the capital last time.
