Volume 1 Chapter 154 The Ninth Prince's Choice
Volume 1, Chapter 154, The Ninth Prince's Choice
"This is not a matter of impulse or not. This is what the Great Zhou royal family owes General Yue!"
Bai Qi did not listen to Princess Anyang's advice at all, but strode out of the prison.
Yang Paifeng also followed him. He didn't see the excitement before, but he had to go and see it this time!
Bai Qi had just come out of the prison of the Ministry of Justice, and immediately roared: "All soldiers, listen to my order, follow me to the imperial city!"
"Yes!"
The 30,000 cavalrymen who were ready to go, standing on the street with their new armor, did not leave at all. If they wanted to leave, they must follow Yang Wudi back to Honghua City.
After all, these soldiers were worried about leaving Yang Wudi alone in the capital.
Anyone who saw the miserable state of Yue Shenqiang would not leave the commander alone in the capital. If he was persecuted by the Great Zhou royal family, they would have to come back to collect the body.
With Bai Qi's order, 30,000 cavalrymen galloped and rushed directly to the palace.
Soon, they rushed from the Ministry of Justice to the gate of the palace.
The guards guarding the palace gate were so frightened by the scene that their legs went weak. They immediately dropped their weapons, indicating that they had absolutely no intention of resisting.
Then someone rushed into the palace to report the current situation.
…………
In the palace.
The Ninth Prince had just ascended the throne as the new Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The first thing he did was to take the chief eunuch to receive his biological father's inheritance. The first thing
he got was the imperial seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
After getting the imperial seal, the Ninth Prince felt relieved and felt that he was the real Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Then,
the chief eunuch clapped his hands, and soon the concubines in the harem ran out.
Those concubines who had given birth to princes and princesses knelt down in front of the Ninth Emperor and performed the great ceremony of paying homage to the monarch and his subjects.
After all, no one here is the biological mother of the Ninth Prince, and in terms of status, no one can be greater than the Ninth Prince.
At this time, the eldest prince's biological mother stood up and said, "The late emperor is dead. We ask the emperor to let us out of the palace and reunite with our children!"
She was the oldest, 10 years older than the ninth prince's biological mother.
Moreover, she was old and out of favor for so many years. She did not pose any threat to the ninth prince and Princess Anyang, and even felt a little warm together.
The ninth prince did not have any hostility towards this concubine. After thinking about the other party's proposal, he nodded and agreed, "Okay, I agree."
After all, he had just ascended the throne of the emperor, and he did not have any military power in his hands, let alone the support of the aristocratic families. It is better not to offend these concubines without authorization.
More importantly, he should not conflict with the families behind them.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
These concubines saluted one after another, and then left quickly, carrying their gold and silver, treasures and palace maids, and immediately left the palace and went to their children's mansions and fiefdoms.
This palace can no longer accommodate them.
After these people left, the faces of those concubines who had no children changed drastically.
One of the concubines was so scared that she was trembling all over. She lay at the feet of the Ninth Prince and begged, "Your Majesty, please don't let us be buried alive with him! You can ask us to do anything!
Even become a nun!"
These concubines were pale, thinking of this very bad consequence. As the emperor's concubine, if they did not give birth to children, they could only be buried with him!
A sinister look flashed in the eyes of the Ninth Prince, and he smiled and said, "You don't have to be buried with him! My father is not qualified to let anyone be buried with him!"
What a joke, his father was executed by Bai Qi and others using the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty!
It is absolutely impossible to bury him with the emperor's etiquette.
There is no such thing as being buried alive with him.
At this time, the eunuch next to him showed a flattering smile and reminded him, "Your Majesty, you have just ascended the throne and are not suitable for the selection of concubines. Why not choose some of these concubines that suit your heart..."
The Ninth Prince's heart moved, thinking that this eunuch, worthy of following his father for so many years, still has a lot of crooked ways!
But I have to say... this proposal is too tempting.
Just when he was hesitant, the guards outside rushed in directly.
"Bold!"
The eunuch roared and was about to scold the person.
The guard with a knife didn't care about the eunuch at all, but immediately said anxiously: "Your Majesty, it's not good. Bai Qi led his troops to block the palace gate!"
What! ?
"What does he Bai Qi want to do?"
The ninth prince grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it directly to the ground. The flying porcelain pieces cut several concubines, but these concubines did not dare to cry out in pain.
After all, everyone knows that the ninth prince is in a very bad mood now.
The guard wanted to report, but Bai Qi's voice had already come in:
"I will give you a quarter of an hour to hand over all the people in the Ministry of Punishment immediately! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Bai Qi has made up his mind today to seek justice for General Yue no matter what.
If anyone dares to stop him, he will fight to the death with the other party even if he spends all his resources and super skill points!
Seeing the miserable state of General Yue's family, he couldn't stay calm at all. There
was only endless murderous intent in his heart!
"Damn it! Damn it! Does Bai Qi still have me, the Emperor of the Great Zhou, in his eyes?"
The Ninth Prince was furious. Bai Qi's behavior was like slapping him in the face.
But he had to choose to compromise. He didn't dare to confront Bai Qi head-on. Bai Qi's current prestige among the people was not comparable to that of the Emperor of the Great Zhou.
He would have to work for at least 10 years before he would have the strength to eradicate Bai Qi.
With a strong sense of unwillingness, the Ninth Prince snorted coldly, "Go to the Worship Hall!"
"Get ready!——"
The eunuch shouted immediately, and more than 20 eunuchs and palace maids accompanied the Ninth Prince to the Worship Hall.
After arriving at the Hall of Worship, the Ninth Prince respectfully bowed to the Three Worshipers in the Hall of Worship and said, "
Grandfather, Bai Qi now wants me to hand over the people from the Ministry of Punishment. I don't know how to make a decision. Please teach me, Grandfather!"
The Three Worshipers raised his eyelids and smiled.
The call of Grandfather made him very happy.
He smiled and said, "It seems that the emperor knows which side he should stand on!"
The Ninth Prince immediately replied respectfully, "Of course I stand on the side of the Grandfather! We are all members of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. We are connected even if we break bones!"
He now wanted to build a good relationship with these people in the Hall of Worship. As long as he got their support, a small Bai Qi would not be taken seriously by him.
"Very good! What do you think we should do now?" the Three Worshipers asked.
The Ninth Prince thought for a while, bowed again and said: "I think that all the people in the Ministry of Punishment should be handed over to Bai Qi for disposal! It is not appropriate to fall out with Bai Qi now.
As long as we wait until the tomb of the immortals is opened, the immortals will deal with Bai Qi!"
He did not want to exchange his life with Bai Qi. He was now the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his life was very precious!
"Not bad, not bad, much better than your father!"
The third priest nodded repeatedly, then waved his hand and said: "Then you take the people away!"
"Ancestors can't give up on us!"
Upon hearing this, the eunuchs of the Ministry of Punishment immediately cried for their parents, and almost hugged the thighs of the third priest.
"Get out!"
The third priest was full of contempt in his heart, and he waved his sleeves and directly blew these people away.
