Chapter 596 When Princess Heqin Becomes the Supreme Empress (22)
Several ministers looked embarrassed.
Emperor Lin kept moving forward and was about to step on their hands on the ground, so they knelt and stepped back.
Emperor Lin kept walking.
"Back then, you were incapable of resisting foreign enemies and said she was the emperor's concubine. When you asked her to get married, you screamed more cheerfully than anyone else and spoke more grandly than anyone else. But now you think she has married twice and you think she is unclean.
She is unable to live in a dignified palace, has insulted the reputation of the royal family, and uses the people of the world as an excuse to let me send her to die? Saying that she is unclean, don't you think there are no remarried women in your family? Do you want them to die too? "
"When you need her, she is the empress of Kang State. When you don't need her, she is the shame of Kang State. My sister has to sacrifice for everything. What do I want you civil and military officials to do?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this is for the royal family, and Emperor Ji will understand..."
Emperor Lin couldn't hold back and directly kicked the person who was speaking, right on the person's nose, causing nosebleeds to spurt out.
"I, the emperor, should be treated so cowardly that you would ride on my head and trample on me?"
"Your Majesty, Di Ji is no longer the Emperor Ji of Kang State. She should not have received these honors. You are also doing a disservice to Di Ji by protecting her like this..."
Emperor Lin kicked him again, showing no mercy at all.
He has tolerated these courtiers for a long time.
"I will convince you today and let you know whether my sister is worthy of the title of Goddess! Is she worthy of the admiration of the people of Kang State?"
Emperor Lin ordered his chamberlain, "Go and bring Fu Zhu, Zhou Lingyi, and the people from the Weiyi Office to see me."
After a while, these people were brought over.
After bowing to Emperor Lin, he stood still and did not dare to move.
Emperor Lin first asked Zhou Lingyi to tell what he had seen and heard in Donghu, and then asked the people from the Weiyi Institute to tell them about their investigation.
Several ministers were sweating after hearing this, because they had never expected that Gu Mo would have such a difficult life in Donghu, and they did not expect that Gu Mo, a weak woman, would finally win over the people of Donghu by relying on her own ability.
of love.
Emperor Lin saw their reactions and continued in a cold voice: "You have also heard, what is the status of Emperor Roujia in Donghu? If I really listen to you, do you believe that Donghu will turn around and call me?"
He added: "Even people in barbarian lands know how to repay kindness and treat Roujia kindly. You claim to be a country of etiquette and scholars, but you have read all the books into the belly of the dog!"
Several ministers just felt that they could not hold their heads up.
They didn't think much about it when they visited Gu Mo. Anyway, it was just a married emperor. Since someone wanted to get this emperor off, it didn't matter if they just did it.
But how could they have imagined that not only Emperor Lin wanted to protect Gu Mo, but more importantly, Gu Mo was already someone who could influence the political affairs of the East Hu Dynasty.
Even without Emperor Lin's support, Kang Guo would never be able to touch Gu Mo casually.
"Your Majesty, I am confused. I will go back and reflect now..."
After saying that, a group of people wanted to leave.
"Did I let you go?!"
Several people who had just raised their knees immediately knelt down again, prostrate without saying a word.
Emperor Lin today showed them what the emperor's wrath was. It was impossible to say they were not afraid.
"Fu Zhu, tell me, all the adults, what did Di Ji go through when she first arrived in Donghu?"
Fu Zhu's eyes were red and she said: "Your Majesty, these are things in the past. Emperor Ji probably doesn't want your Majesty to know."
"I tell you to speak, so you speak! Make your voice louder so that these ministers can hear you clearly, otherwise they will think that my sister is enjoying a good life in Donghu."
Fu Zhu then choked up and said: "Just after Di Ji went to Donghu, she got seriously ill and almost died. Although she got over it later, the root of the disease has since fallen into place, and her body has become weaker and weaker. Donghu people don't care about it at all.
Di Ji took it seriously and didn't care whether she lived or died. They also forced Di Ji to put down her pride as a princess and lick their shoes to insult Kang State. When Di Ji refused, they whipped Di Ji..."
"In those three years, Emperor Ji often suffered various tortures. Her body was covered with scars from that time, and not a single piece of her flesh was intact. None of the maids around her could bear such torture and left..."
"But Di Ji didn't dare to die, because she knew that if she died, the marriage between the two countries would not count. She could not hate the Donghu people. She said that she was the princess of Kang State. Not only could she not hate them and take revenge on them, she also
To help Dong Hu, she has to fulfill her mission as the princess..."
"Later, Di Ji rescued Your Majesty. After the Donghu people captured her, they threw her into a pack of wolves. If not for God's blessing, where would Your Majesty be able to see Di Ji again now?"
"It's not that Di Ji didn't hear the rumors in the court. Those people were also afraid that Di Ji wouldn't hear them, so they tried every means to let Di Ji know how disliked she was in Kang State, but Di Ji never cared about anything."
At the end, Fu Zhu burst into tears and could hardly speak a complete sentence.
"Your Majesty, Di Ji has suffered in the past ten years that she has not suffered in the past sixteen years. She used ten years to exchange for peace between the two countries and make Donghu truly surrender to the Kang State. Di Ji is worthy of the Kang State and worthy of the Kang State.
Fu Zhu begs Your Majesty to treat Di Ji kindly..."
Her head knocked down deeply and hit the floor with a thud.
At this moment, the emperor's palms covered his face, blocking his wet eyes.
Bok Joo's voice continued.
"Di Ji is the princess of the Tian family. She has not let down the people's worship. Fu Zhu would like to ask, all the adults who enjoy peace by relying on a woman, where do you get the confidence to think that Di Ji should not return to Kang State alive?
?”
The imperial study room was very quiet for a while, and several ministers did not dare to express their anger.
After a long time, Emperor Lin said: "I tell you, Roujia's contribution is not inferior to the contribution of opening up and expanding the territory. If anyone dares to criticize Roujia in the future, I will chop off his head!"
The emperor also drafted an imperial edict, ordering that anyone who dares to slander the emperor in the future will be punished with a serious crime.
Seeing the ministers lowering their heads and about to leave the imperial study, Emperor Lin said again: "Since you want to reflect, just kneel outside the imperial study and reflect."
Several ministers, "..."
Unlike the tense and depressing atmosphere in the Imperial Study Room, the atmosphere in Gu Mo's bedroom was quite good today.
Gu Mo had a fight with the royal family members before.
Among these female relatives, there were lobbyists from Qin Wanqiu and Qin Wanyue, who consciously or unconsciously mentioned in front of Gu Mo how much these two sisters missed her.
The less said about Qin Wanqiu, after all, Emperor Lin did not allow Qin Wanqiu to enter the palace, and they did not dare to speak for Qin Wanqiu openly.
So what Gu Mo heard the most was how much Qin Wanyue missed her, the empress.
