Mu Tianxue stood up from the chair, glanced at the ministers who were bowing their heads, then his eyes fell on Prime Minister Han, and said calmly: "Prime Minister Han, if you have any opinions, please bring them up before I see the memorial."
, if not, I would have participated in politics."
Her calm and indifferent voice, without any hint of coldness, made several ministers inexplicably feel a powerful and oppressive aura.
It also made Prime Minister Han feel as if a thousand pounds of stone were weighing on his heart. It was dull and difficult to breathe. He felt that the air was so gloomy that he could squeeze out the water.
He raised his head and frowned, glanced at Mu Tianxue, and said in a deep voice: "The Queen is deeply favored by the Emperor, and she has the Emperor's will. How can I dare to argue with you?"
Mu Tianxue looked at Prime Minister Han's expression of daring to be angry but not speaking out. She slightly hooked up her red lips and smiled coldly. She turned around and walked to Long Chenyi, took the memorial in his hand and opened it to read.
Long Chen also picked up another memorial, and then handed it to Mu Tianxue, "There are five copies of the same memorial, and this one -"
He held several bright yellow imperial edicts and placed them in front of Mu Tianxue, letting her read them one by one.
Mu Tianxue put down the memorial in her hand, picked up the imperial edict in front of her and opened it. It was not until she had finished reading the five imperial edicts that she frowned and said slowly: "Someone is secretly preparing a fake edict to get military talismans."
Long Chen also nodded slightly and said in a deep voice: "Two urgent military documents were sent from Yanmen Pass. The military documents mentioned that they had received the imperial edict to return to Beijing a few days ago. They had planned to lead the troops back to Beijing, but they just happened to catch up with Lianyun's army.
Yanmen Pass was pressing the border, so Lord Tan came down and secretly ordered a secret messenger to rush back to Beijing to ask for instructions!"
Mu Tianxue sat down on a chair on the side, holding several other imperial edicts, and said, "These imperial edicts are also the imperial edicts that the generals in Kyoto received privately to transfer military talismans?"
Long Chen also looked at her with deep eyes and said: "Besides the military talisman, one is in the hand of General Li, the other is in the hand of General Liu, and the last one is always in my hand. The others are in my hand.
The generals do not hold military power, so they naturally do not allow those who secretly control it to succeed."
Mu Tianxue put several imperial edicts on the desk, looked at the ministers below, and said, "What do you think of this matter?"
Li Tianjuo bowed his head and said respectfully: "Back to the queen, the imperial edict is stamped with the imperial seal. Wei Jiang thought that someone must be secretly lurking around the emperor, stealing the jade seal and issuing false imperial edicts in order to start an army and rebel. I will definitely capture the person who stole the jade seal."
It will bring harm to the dynasty."
As soon as Li Tianju finished speaking, Prime Minister Han took over, "Your Majesty, since the deposed prince was brought back to the palace, there has been a matter of the jade seal being stolen. The deposed prince has been hiding in Kyoto for many years, and he must have accumulated strength secretly. This time
The jade seal must have been stolen because of someone he sent. Please think twice, Your Majesty, you cannot keep the deposed prince!"
Prime Minister Han's words were approved by several ministers, who all remonstrated: "The deposed prince secretly plotted to kill the late emperor, and the loss of his military talisman caused an irreversible disaster for the dynasty, and he also harmed the late emperor.
Your Majesty is so benevolent that you should spare the life of the deposed prince and demote him to the status of a commoner. Now that we have just taken him back to the palace, something like this has happened. Please think twice, your Majesty. The deposed prince should be punished by death and cannot be kept any longer!"
Several ministers knelt down and asked for the order: "Your Majesty, please think twice. The deposed prince cannot be kept. I hope the emperor will issue an order to kill the deposed prince!"
Long Chen also had a gloomy expression on his face and looked coldly at several ministers, "There is insufficient evidence for this matter, so why must it be the deposed prince's doing."
Mu Tianxue frowned slightly. She heard Long Chen also say that Yuxi disappeared together with Long Chenhao when the palace changed five years ago.
The person who planned to forge the false imperial edict must be Long Chenhao, not Long Chenyun who was imprisoned in Lianyang Palace.
However, the theft of the jade seal is a big deal, and the officials in the DPRK and the Central Government naturally don't know about it.
Now that this conspiracy happened, it happened to be discovered only after Long Chenyun was taken back to the palace.
This inevitably led the ministers to speculate that Long Chenyun was the person secretly plotting rebellion.
Moreover, Long Chen Yun was originally the deposed prince. According to theory, he should have been imprisoned in a prison or sentenced to death five years ago, but he was demoted to a commoner by Long Chen.
Since ancient times, after the new emperor ascends the throne, the deposed prince will be sentenced to death. The king will not tolerate the rivals who competed for the throne in the past, and all civil and military officials will also report the deposed prince to death.
"Dear ministers, the deposed prince has been imprisoned in Lianyang Palace since he was brought back to the palace. How did he steal the jade seal?" Mu Tianxue stood up and walked in front of several ministers and said coldly: "Besides, there are many guards in the palace and many imperial guards.
The guards are so tight that outsiders can break into the palace even if they want to!"
Prime Minister Han glared at Mu Tianxue and said angrily: "What the Queen said is wrong. As soon as the deposed prince returned to the palace, such a big thing happened. If he hadn't secretly manipulated it, how could the jade seal be lost when the Lianyun Kingdom's army came to the border?
Is it possible to say that this is a coincidence?"
Mu Tianxue snorted coldly, "Coincidences are everywhere. If Prime Minister Ruo Han analyzes it like this, then I believe that the person who stole the jade seal is the Prince of Lianyun Kingdom Liancheng. He hurried back to Lianyun Kingdom to lead the troops
Attacking the dynasty, and at this time, the jade seal was stolen again, doesn't this mean that the person who stole the jade seal is Prince Liancheng?"
As soon as these words came out, several ministers fell into deep thought, and Prime Minister Han was speechless.
In comparison, based on the current circumstances, Liancheng is indeed more suspect than Long Chenyun.
Moreover, Liancheng's martial arts prowess was on good terms with Long Chen, so it would not be difficult to steal the jade seal from Long Chen.
More importantly, as soon as Liancheng returned to Lianyun State, he led troops to attack the dynasty, which was the most suspicious.
This made several ministers believe in Mu Tianxue's words!
"The Queen's words are not unreasonable!" Prime Minister Han couldn't help but questioned, "But Prince Liancheng returned to Lianyun Kingdom a few days ago, how could he issue a false imperial edict recently?"
"Haha——" Mu Tianxue laughed wantonly and said mockingly: "Prime Minister Han is truly worthy of being the prime minister of a country. I really admire him. I am not talented. I dare to ask Prime Minister Han if the imperial edict can be drafted in advance.
, when the opportunity comes, send thieves from other countries secretly lurking in Kyoto to announce it?"
Prime Minister Han was choked by Mu Tianxue's ridicule and was filled with anger, but he had no words to refute. He could only grit his teeth and said angrily: "Of course!"
"Okay, don't argue anymore." Long Chen also looked at the ministers below and said in a deep voice: "Theft of the jade seal is a national matter. I will send people to find the jade seal. All my dear friends, please step aside."
Several ministers knelt down to thank him and then exited the imperial study.
After leaving the imperial study, Prime Minister Han said with anger on his face, "Interfering with politics in the harem is really against the late emperor's order."
Zhang Hua, the minister of the Ministry of War, sighed and advised: "Prime Minister Han, please calm down. The emperor only favors the empress and allows her to participate in the government affairs. All ministers can only obey."
Han Zai sighed repeatedly, stopped and looked back at the imperial book, and said: "Comrades, go ahead, I should go and pay my respects to the Queen Mother."
