Chapter 804 The decree

Yi Kongting, behind the emperor, waved his hand and signaled the eunuch to retreat, then whispered: "Master, Tang Mingwu is indeed incomplete in his work, and actually ran away from Lu Zongxuan. However, the East City is still in Su Guanya's hands. Han Mo's breaking the city may not be a good thing. Now that the army has entered the city, Su Guanya has been forced to go to the fore. At this time, Su Guanya is afraid that he will really find someone to bury him."

The emperor shook his head and said, "Those who do big things must be ruthless. Now it seems that Su Guanya is still involved in the false and false righteousness. Although the Nine Gate soldiers are not large, they are an unstable team at this time, and there are great variables. If he really wants to accomplish great things, he should kill him when he takes action...!" Then he sighed and sighed, "Speaking of this, I have also had this matter. Lu Yingji has followed me for many years, and I trust him very much. I have always given him the appointment and removal power of the generals of the Nine Gate. I am always the confidant of their father and son. If I hadn't been too indulgent, Lu Zongxuan would not have been able to provoke the Nine Gate soldiers with just one face...!"

Yi Kongting hurriedly said: "This is the priest who trusts his ministers, and it shows the priest's wise kings. It's just that the Lu father and son are dull and unable to understand the priest's intentions..."

The emperor clenched his fist and frowned, "Lao Yi, in your opinion, will Han Mo take the opportunity to cause trouble?"

"It shouldn't be!" Yi Kongting said carefully: "Han Mo has the Imperial Army and the Northwest Army. Except for the private army in the East China Sea, his soldiers are not his direct subordinates, and he is under the banner of serving the king and will never dare to do anything wrong."

The emperor nodded slightly and then sighed: "It's a pity that this son is a child of a noble family, otherwise I must use him more. However, after this time, this son's methods are indeed great, and I can't risk giving him too much power again."

"What does the Lord mean?"

"I wanted him to control the Xihua Hall with one hand and the Leopard Camp with the other, so I wanted to use the power to fight and let the Han family have the strength to compete with the Xiao family." The emperor stood quietly like a mountain, extremely stable: "The current Xiao family... Humph, it's time for Han Mo to give me some power!"

Speaking of this, the emperor pondered for a moment. Just as he was about to return to the hall, he saw an eunuch rushing towards him, his expression seemed extremely nervous, he knelt in front of the hall and said loudly: "Your Majesty, there is a change in the East City!"

"Have you changed?" The emperor's face changed slightly. He turned his head and took a few steps forward, and his eyes were filled with excitement: "What's wrong?"

At this moment, what he most wanted to hear was that Su Guanya was forced to burn all the jade and stones, killing all the cabinet officials. Thinking of such a change, the emperor's hands trembled slightly.

Everything he did before, his silence, was for this moment.

He used a knife to kill people, but the royal family had to deal with the officials of those aristocratic families without any blood.

The eunuch immediately said: "Just just heard news that in the east city, Master Xiao and the cabinet members had already left Dongcheng..."

The emperor was stunned, then his face turned pale, his eyes turned red in an instant, and his face became even more distorted and terrifying. He rushed over in a few steps, grabbed the eunuch, and asked sternly: "What did you say? Say it again!"

The eunuch was so scared that his face was gone, his body became weak, and he wanted to speak, but when he saw the emperor's hideous face, he could only say a few words like "He...slave...", and he was so scared that he couldn't speak for a moment.

"The cabinet officials have been rescued." A voice like clouds floated over, "They have been picked up by the Northwest Army at this time!"

In the sound, a beautiful figure curled up, as light as a cloud, and it was Princess Xiu.

The emperor threw away the eunuch in his hand. The eunuch crawled to the side like a dog, huddled his head on the ground, stuck his butt, and his body shivered.

The emperor stood up straight, watched Princess Xiu walk slowly over, and immediately asked: "How did they get out? There are thousands of imperial guards in the East City, how could the Northwest Army easily break into it? How could Su Guanya make it so easy for the Northwest Army to rescue those aristocratic officials?"

"Xihua Hall launched a raid, entered the house arrest, and rescued the cabinet officials." Princess Xiu's face was expressionless and looked very cold.

The emperor immediately said coldly: "Xihua Hall? When they were in action, where were the people in your Donghua Hall? How could the people in the Xihua Hall alone rescue those officials from Dongcheng?" He slowly walked towards Princess Xiu, staring at Princess Xiu's beautiful face with a pair of red eyes, "I asked you to keep a close eye on the Xihua Hall, how did you do it?"

Princess Xiu was still expressionless when facing the emperor's questioning. She was wearing a white fox fur and stood in front of the hall. She was extremely beautiful and her temperament was even more noble and elegant. "The West Flower Hall broke through, and the East Flower Hall was on the way. Later, Han Mo's wind cavalry also rushed to the East City and rescued the officials!"

"You...!" The emperor was furious and raised his hand to hit Princess Xiu in the face. Seeing that he was about to hit Princess Xiu in the face, he finally stopped and roared, "How can you ruin my affairs? Do you think I really won't kill you?"

Princess Xiu smiled coldly, with a hint of sadness on her beautiful face: "The emperor is the emperor, so she can naturally order me to take my life at any time. Isn't the emperor's methods always very decisive?"

"Why?" the emperor roared: "Why do you betray me? Don't forget that you are also a member of the royal family. You are not only betray me, but also the ancestors of my royal family. Cao Xiu, you are the sinner of the royal family!" He clenched his fists, and the veins on his back were thrust: "Han Mo... I really regret it. I actually handed the Xihua Hall to his hands...!"

Princess Xiu said calmly: "Royal sinner? Brother Emperor, I just don't want you to be a royal sinner, so I took action...!"

"All nonsense!" The emperor glared at Princess Xiu: "What are I doing for so many years? In order to revitalize the royal majesty, I want to become a saint. I have always thought that you understand my painstaking efforts and will unswervingly support me. Today I know that you still can't forget the incident, or that person. When it comes to my most important moment, you betray me and stabbed me hard in the heart... Cao Xiu, you are not worthy of being the princess of the royal family!"

"A Saint Lord?" Princess Xiu smiled, and her charming eyes were full of pain at this moment: "Brother Emperor, do you know that you have changed a long time ago. You have long been the emperor who cared for me in every way. Once, you said that you want to become a Saint Lord, once you become the Lord of the Great Yan Kingdom, you will let my people of Dayan live the best life... But along the way, do you think that everything is not so beautiful, everything is so cruel...!"

The emperor stared at Princess Xiu coldly, and did not speak for a moment, but the anger on his face did not disappear at all.

Princess Xiu raised her snow-white jaw, looked up at the sky that was about to usher in the dawn, and slowly said, "Big brother, third brother, and him, and many people who are full of expectations for you... They left one by one. Now, Shuang'er has also left the palace, and the prince. You watched him step by step, but watched coldly, just treating him as a tool to use it...!"

The "big brother" mentioned by Princess Xiu refers to the prince Qiling of the past, and the "third brother" naturally refers to King Xuande. The two are the emperor's brothers, but they are no longer alive now.

"Stop!" the emperor roared: "It's not your turn to blame me. I am the king of a country. Everything I do is for this country..."

"Jiangshan..." Princess Xiu showed unconcealable fatigue on her beautiful face. "The people around her left one by one, and the smiles of the past gradually faded away. What's the use of getting the country like this?" She looked at the emperor and sighed quietly: "The dead leaves wither, life is like a dream... Brother Emperor, how many people have believed in you and handed over everything to you, but have you... given them the same reward?"

"Cao Xiu, I know that you have always been holding a grudge against me because of Gu Chaoxing's affairs." The emperor said coldly: "You have been thinking about that thing all day long. I have always felt that if there is someone in this world that I trust, it is your own sister. But if I think wrong, you still betray me. I am very disappointed... My biggest mistake in this life is to misread you. Over the years, you must have been waiting for the opportunity to avenge Gu Chaoxing, right? I tell you that I am the true emperor. I am the only one in heaven and earth. If you want to avenge Gu Chaoxing, I will never be afraid of you!"

Princess Xiu looked at the emperor with a pale face, then shook her head and sighed: "Brother Emperor, do you think I am pretending to help you over the years?"

The emperor clenched his fists, closed his eyes, and said coldly: "No matter what, your betrayal of me today makes me have to suspect that you are waiting for the opportunity to stab me hard in the heart. Tonight, your knife stabbed me in the heart, and my heart... hurts very much!"

Princess Xiu's body was trembling. Although the brother and sister stood opposite each other, the distance between them seemed so far away, as if one was at the end of the world and the other was in the corner.

"Officials in the East City, don't have any trouble, otherwise my civil strife will arise in Dayan." Princess Xiu calmed down and said calmly: "Beware of changes in the northwest border... If you don't want someone in the capital to continue to leave blood and don't want to have another abnormal change, open the palace gate and issue an order!"

After saying this, Princess Xiu turned around and said nothing more, she was like a soft white cloud, floating away.

The emperor opened his eyes and watched Princess Xiu's back disappear. His cold eyes were full of complex colors. He held his fists' nails, and even fell into the flesh without realizing it.

Yi Kongting finally came forward and said respectfully: "Master, you... don't hurt the dragon body!"

The emperor turned his head and looked at Yi Kongting, but his eyes were filled with pain: "You said, why did even Xiu'er betray me? Why did she let me down if I trust her so much?"

Yi Kongting just bent down but did not dare to answer.

Even Yi Kongting dared not interfere with the matter between the emperor and his sister.

The emperor closed his eyes and pondered for a long time. The angry look on his face gradually calmed down. He opened his eyes and said slowly, "Since those guys in the cabinet have been rescued, I can't wait any longer..." He looked up at the vaguely bright sky and murmured, "Su Guanya, you can carry this last burden!" Then he ordered: "Transfer my will, and the first will be handed over to Cao Yin, the wolf armor camp, and the second will be announced to the whole city. The Su family conspired to rebel and deceived the imperial guards, so that the rebel soldiers immediately gave up resistance. If there are those who stop horses, I will not blame them and only suppress the mastermind. If there are stubborn resistance, I will kill you without mercy!"
