Chapter 353 Desperate courtiers

After the emperor left, the imperial master directly took the cup and said to the ministers:

"Everyone, Ye Shihan is going to lead troops to rebel. The Emperor has issued an order and ordered me to handle this matter with full authority. Now that our Great Khan is here, all matters must be listened to by the Great Khan. Do you have any objections?"

Hearing this, Master Yu, who is the Minister of War, frowned and asked,

"The Great Khan is the Great Khan of the Western Regions. Why did he come to our Eastern Jin State to make the decision? The Emperor did not mention that he wanted the Great Khan to take charge of this matter. After all, this is related to the lifeline of the Eastern Jin State. Besides, the Imperial Advisor is from the Eastern Jin State after all.

Imperial Preceptor, so I don’t think it’s appropriate for the Great Khan to take charge of this matter.”

As soon as the Lord finished speaking, an evil smile suddenly appeared on the corner of Dahan's mouth, but he still pretended to be humble and said:

"Everyone, does anyone else think it's inappropriate? If you think it's inappropriate or have any opinions, you can raise them and I will accept them all."

Although everyone has opinions about the Great Khan, some are afraid to speak out.

At this time, it was the upright Mr. Yu who spoke,

"Everyone, aren't you all complaining in private? Why don't you speak out now? I see that this Great Khan is also a man of justice. I believe that if we tell the truth, he will not embarrass us too much."

Shi Ziqiang's father, Mr. Shi, had been holding back for a long time. He looked around and saw that no one made a sound. He stood up and clasped his fists and said:

"Since the emperor asked the Great Khan to help the Eastern Jin Dynasty, the Great Khan is naturally a trustworthy person. I have no objection to this and will obey the instructions of the Great Khan."

Two people from the crowd also came out to echo,

"Yes, Lord Shi is right, we are willing to listen to the Great Khan's orders."

The adults suddenly became anxious, "What's going on with you? You didn't say that before you came here. Why have you changed your tone now?"

Master Shi shook his head helplessly, "Sir, those who understand the current affairs are heroes. Stop being stubborn. Besides, the Great Khan is the emperor of the Western Regions after all. He personally came to take charge of this matter, which also shows that he only wants to

If you want to support the determination of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, you should stop talking."

But Mr. Yu still stubbornly pointed at everyone,

"...You...are you scared out of your wits? You are all veterans of three dynasties. When the late emperor passed away, he told us to assist the emperor well. Now he is so stupid that he wants to hand over the country to others. You

Don’t you even fart?”

The adults listened to his question and shook their heads at him, signaling him to stop talking. Because everyone saw the black lines on the big sweat's face and knew that the big sweat must be angry, so they timidly wiped them away secretly.

There were beads of sweat on their faces, their heads were lowered, and no one dared to make a sound.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Dahan's lips, and he looked up to the sky and laughed,

"Hahaha, since most people have no objections, then the opinion of Sir Zai naturally does not count. The Great Khan ordered that Sir Zai be reduced from his position and let him go to the sky prison for a few days.

"

Hearing this, Mr. Yu immediately panicked, and he hurriedly asked,

"How dare you, you are not from my Eastern Jin Kingdom and have no right to punish me."

When Davar saw this, he took out the long sword in his hand angrily, and without any explanation, stabbed it directly into the Lord's belly, mockingly saying:

"He who knows the current affairs is a distinguished man. Come on, Mr. Yu felt guilty for being disloyal to the court. He committed suicide out of fear of guilt. Drag him out."

Everyone was so frightened by this scene that no one dared to make a sound.

After a while, two guards from the Western Regions came in and directly dragged Master Yu out who had expired.

Seeing this, the rest of the people were a little worried, fearing that they would be the next person to be killed by the knife.

The Great Khan glanced at these people, turned to Davar and said:

"National Master, these people are loyal to the emperor and are worried about the emperor's safety, so they want to risk their lives to protect him. You can find a place to settle them in the palace."

What he meant was very clear, he wanted to put these people under house arrest.

However, in the current situation, it is no longer easy to save a life, so no one dares to speak out for fear of getting the same fate as Mr. Yu.

However, all the veterans of the Eastern Jin Dynasty disappeared overnight, which had to make people suspicious. Among them, the most nervous one was Master Shi's son Shi Ziqiang.

He was restless at home and kept pacing back and forth.

Mrs. Shi was sitting on the sandalwood chair with an anxious look on her face.

"Qiang'er, stop shaking, I have a headache."

"Mom, my dad didn't come back this night, what happened? No, I'll go take a look."

"We can't go." Mrs. Shi interrupted Shi Ziqiang, "Now the people from the Western Regions are running amok in the palace. If you go there rashly, something will happen. You'd better wait."

"But I just went to see all the adults, and none of them came back. I don't know what happened at the palace banquet last night. We can't just wait around like this."

When Mrs. Shi heard what her son said, her eyes turned red with anxiety. She kept shaking her head and sighing.

At this time, a servant suddenly ran in hurriedly,

"My lord, my lord, it's not good, something happened."

Hearing the call of the visitor, Shi Ziqiang hurriedly greeted him and asked eagerly:

"What's wrong? Is there a letter from the palace?"

The servant nodded, "Yes... I heard... I heard that Mr. Yu was... stabbed to death by the Imperial Master's sword."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Shi almost fainted. If it weren't for the girl supporting her, she would have fallen to the ground.

Shi Ziqiang was also a little confused and asked again:

"What about my father and the others? Where have they gone?"

The servant shook his head, "I don't know. I just heard that Mr. Yu is planning to hold a funeral. Everyone in the court who attended the banquet yesterday has no news."

Hearing this, Shi Zi took a few steps back weakly, and murmured:

"What a good thing this is! What a good thing it is!"

"Sir, I heard that His Majesty the Seventh Prince is stationed outside the city with his men, preparing to attack the city. How about that?"

Shi Ziqiang knew what the servant meant. Seeing that the court was hopeless and about to be destroyed, the only person who could save the court was Ye Shihan from outside the city.

He sat dejectedly on the chair, breathing heavily.

Mrs. Shi had just taken a breath. She suddenly looked at Shi Ziqiang and said sadly:

"Qiang'er, you and Xiaojuan should take Shuai'er out of the city to join His Majesty the Seventh Highness. There is no hope in this city. Maybe one day these people from the Western Regions will capture this city, and I'm afraid we won't be able to survive by then."

"Mom, what should you do?"

"Mom is old and can't run away anymore. I don't want to run away anymore. I'll wait here for your father to come back. If he can come back, we'll wait for His Majesty Seventh Prince to attack the city and rescue him. If he doesn't come back, I will follow this building.

The house lives and dies together."

"mother……"

"Stop talking." Mrs. Shi sighed and shook her head in despair.
