Chapter 251 Civil and Military Officers
Chapter 251 Civil and Military Officers
At the Queen's command, the soldiers rushed directly into the hall.
The commander of the imperial guards was unhappy. Why? Didn't he see him and his men?
But then again, the emperor hasn't really said whether he wants to take their lives or not, so should we just keep them for now?
There was a fight going on outside, but the hall was very quiet.
However, outside the hall, all the civil and military officials were terrified.
They heard that the emperor had woken up, so they hurried over to find out the news. Who could have imagined that they would encounter a palace coup?
They hid without hesitation, fearing that they would become innocent people implicated.
However, the eldest master of the Lin family had very sharp eyesight and instantly discovered the hiding official.
They only brought such a small number of troops, so it was really difficult to attack, and they had to take the throne as soon as possible before others could react.
The eldest master of the Lin family thought that such a small number of soldiers and horses were just for him to charge into battle, and there must be a large army behind him.
How could he know? The so-called army had already gone back. 3000 was not a test, but the limit!
"Arrest these officials!"
The Queen had no intention of objecting to what the eldest master of the Lin family said. After all, they were all her subjects, so she could just kill them.
This big city is like leeks after the rain. You cut one crop, and there is always another.
With so many scholars taking part in the imperial examinations every year, isn’t it easy to select some of them to become officials?
"Catch him!"
Even the queen was so domineering, which was something the civil and military officials had never expected.
Before this, the queen still cared about her reputation and pretended to be virtuous and generous, with the demeanor of a mother of a country.
But now, when it comes to being ruthless and merciless, I show no mercy at all.
The ministers were all confused. What had they done wrong? They just came to watch the fun.
Especially the Yang family. The person standing behind him is the fifth prince. Who could have thought that they would suddenly become hostages.
"Empress, what are you going to do? Are you planning a rebellion?"
As soon as the queen heard the word "rebellion", she became interested and stared at the old man of the Yang family.
"Don't talk nonsense. It's not me who is rebelling now, it's the Third Prince. I'm here to save the emperor."
Who would believe it? Who would believe it in your situation? Anyway, they don’t believe it.
"Queen, please stop talking nonsense. How could the Third Prince rebel given his physical condition?"
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Just ask him when you see him later."
No one expected the queen's attitude to be so calm, which shows that she has already arranged everything.
It is impossible for them to turn the tide today. After all, they are just subjects and do not have any military power.
Thinking of this, all the civil and military officials felt depressed.
To be honest, His Majesty was quite decent before, but later on he became more and more excessive, and he was willing to do anything to fight with the Lin family.
Look at the Crown Princess you chose for them. She is your own son after all. Don’t you feel any burden at all if you cheat her?
When Queen Lin saw that her people were not capable, she smiled coldly at the ministers.
"Since you are here, please do your part. If the Third Prince doesn't open the door, I will have to kill him as an example to scare the monkeys.
There must be someone from the Third Prince's faction here, so why not stand up yourself to avoid implicating everyone else."
The queen was so cruel that she actually used them to threaten the third prince.
Is this killing a chicken to scare the monkeys? This is clearly just for killing chickens!
The ministers shook their heads and then knelt on the ground quickly.
"Your Majesty, help me! Please open the palace gates and don't let anyone confuse you!"
"Your Majesty, please come out!"
We five hundred officials know very well that the Third Prince is unlikely to rebel and the Emperor is not unconscious.
Now we can only ask the emperor to have some sympathy. After all, it is not easy to train officials like them, and training a new batch is really a waste of time.
The ministers outside were crying loudly, and the emperor in the hall was coughing continuously due to anger.
"This vicious woman has such a cruel heart!"
Yes, the queen is a vicious woman and her heart is also very cruel.
But then again, you already know who your wife is, why don't you open the palace gates?
She turned around and stomped her feet with a cruel heart, and really killed all the civil and military officials, but what could she do?
At that time, will they train a new batch of people?
Liu Rumei couldn't help but look at Tang Mingchen. Was this also his plan?
Could it be that this guy has long been displeased with all the civil and military officials and wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife?
Of course, this situation cannot be ruled out. After all, these officials did not do good things during his growth. They either blocked him or bullied him. In any case, most of the time they were fighting for interests.
"What's the point of being angry, Father? Why not go out and scold? That would be more satisfying, wouldn't it?"
Hearing his son's mockery, the emperor couldn't help but smash the things on the table.
This unfilial son, he can't bear to see me living a good life, right?
"Shut your mouth!"
The emperor said this, and then asked Wang Zongchong to open the palace gate.
There was no other way. He couldn't just watch all the civil and military officials die.
When he goes to court, he will be the only one left. Wouldn't that be a joke?
Moreover, he has not dealt with real state affairs for so many years, and has tried to devote all his time to cultivation.
If there were no civil and military officials, could he still practice well?
As the gate opened, both sides stopped. Liu Rumei looked at the scene outside and found it was indeed a bit tragic.
The smell of blood came to my face along with the rain. It turned out that a light drizzle had been falling outside, which made people feel very depressed.
Although she had already gotten used to the bloody smell at the end of the world, she still felt a little nauseous when she suddenly saw such a scene today.
"Are you scared?"
Tang Mingchen asked this while hiding the person behind him. He was really worried that Liu Rumei would be frightened by this scene.
"Fortunately, the casualties were not too severe."
Yes, fortunately there were not too many casualties.
According to the number of troops on both sides, if they really want to rebel, it will not end until all sides fall.
But now there are only hundreds of casualties, which shows that both sides don't want it and are really fighting desperately. This is really interesting.
They want credit but don't want to pay any price for it, so they play so passively.
As for the Imperial Guards, they were not adequately trained on a daily basis and were all from aristocratic families, so fighting was very strenuous and their main priority was to save their own lives.
Seeing this scene, Tang Mingchen almost laughed out loud. Although he tried hard to restrain himself, he couldn't suppress the upturned corners of his mouth.
It was such a lively scene. It was really worth it to watch the excitement. At least it is hard to see such excitement in recent years.
"Queen, I think you have lost your mind!" When the Emperor said this while standing at the gate, the Queen felt terrible.
Which link went wrong?
Didn’t they say that the emperor is dying?
He did not even attend the prince's wedding, but he was not unconscious. Instead, he was standing very soberly.
If his body really couldn't take it, why didn't he attend the prince's wedding?
