Before Tang Miaoxin returned to Guiqian, although Tang Jiuge did not announce it to the public, Zhong Yan always felt that he would be the future king of Guiqian.
At that time, Zhong Yan was humble and polite.
Tang Jiuge is not a pedantic person. After he found Tang Miaoxin, he still treated Zhong Yan very well.
But Tang Miaoxin came back, and it was inappropriate for Zhong Yan to live in the palace anymore, so he gave Zhong Yan a title and asked him to leave the palace and open a mansion.
Because Zhong Yan has been honest and has done a lot of tricks in private in the past few years, Tang Jiuge can still turn a blind eye to these things.
During this period, Tang Jiuge used some means to intimidate Zhong Yan, telling him to be careful and not to push too far.
At first Zhong Yan found out that Tang Jiuge was angry and he could calm down for a while.
Then he discovered that Tang Miaoxin had been missing all day long, and his little actions became more and more frequent, and his calm moments became less and less.
The past few years have exhausted Tang Jiuge's patience.
This time he was even more daring and directly committed the assassination, which had already crossed Tang Jiuge's bottom line.
Tang Jiuge has never been an indecisive person, he just cares about old relationships.
In his private heart, he also hopes that Zhong Yan and Tang Miaoxin can get along well.
Now that Zhong Yan has shown his ambition, Tang Jiuge will not keep him anymore even if he cares about his old relationship.
He will not allow anyone to threaten Tang Miaoxin's status and safety.
Liu Xingwang was not too surprised when he heard Tang Jiuge's arrangement. For what Zhong Yan had done over the years, he deserved such a result.
Tang Jiuge stood in front of the main hall, looked at the well-organized palace, and sighed softly.
The imperial power is so powerful that few people in the world can resist this temptation.
He originally thought that Gui Potential could avoid this kind of disaster, but he didn't expect that Zhong Yan's incident would happen.
At this moment, Yu Han hurriedly entered the palace.
He knelt in front of Tang Jiuge and said: "Report to the Lord, when I led people to surround the Changxing Bo Mansion, everyone in the manor was captured, but he was the only one missing."
Tang Jiuge narrowed his eyes slightly: "Is he missing?"
Yu Han lowered his head and said: "I am incompetent, please punish me, my lord!"
There was a faint chill in Tang Jiuge's eyes, and his murderous aura was revealed: "I actually let him escape like this. I really underestimated him before."
He taught Zhong Yan and he knew Zhong Yan's ability.
During this assassination, Zhong Yan must have been watching not far away.
When he saw something was wrong, he knew that Tang Jiuge would not let him go, so he ran away decisively.
Tang Jiuge asked: "He just escaped alone and didn't take his wife and children with him?"
Yu Han nodded: "Mrs. Changxing Bo and the Crown Prince have all been captured and are currently in the prison of Dali Temple."
The coldness in Tang Jiuge's eyes became even stronger: "He is quite ruthless, and he is actually willing to let go of his wife and children."
He could all imagine why Zhong Yan would do this.
In the final analysis, it was just Zhong Yanruo who left with his wife and children. There was too much movement and it was easy to attract his attention.
Tang Jiuge hated the kind of people who abandoned their wives and children for the sake of power at all costs.
Tang Jiuge will never stay with Zhong Yan like this again.
Yu Han knew that Tang Jiuge was really angry at this time. He bit the bullet and asked, "What should we do with Mrs. Changxing Bo and the Crown Prince?"
Tang Jiuge's voice was cold: "Zhong Yan did such a thing, abandoned his wife and children, just because he thought that I missed our old relationship and would not touch them."
"His idea is really ridiculous. He doesn't want his wife and children anymore, so why should he ask others to forgive them?"
"It seems that my tolerance for him over the years has been fed to the dog."
Yu Han felt Tang Jiuge's murderous intention, and sure enough, the next moment he heard Tang Jiuge say: "Kill them all."
Yu Han looked up at him and asked in a deep voice, "What? Do you want to plead for them?"
As an emperor, Tang Jiuge has always been decisive in killing.
Yu Han hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mrs. Changxing Bo and the Crown Prince have nothing to do with this matter after all."
"They can't escape the relationship." Tang Jiuge's eyes were filled with frost: "If he can really kill me this time, their status will also rise."
"I have given them many opportunities over the years, but they have not cherished them at all."
"While they are enjoying their glory and wealth, they should know that there is still a risk of beheading."
"I haven't touched anyone in the court in the past few years. Do they think I can no longer carry the knife?"
"I don't believe that Zhong Yan did such a treasonous thing and his wife and children didn't know anything about it."
"Failure to report the information means that they also have unrealistic illusions. If this is the case, then they don't have to live anymore."
Ever since Tang Jiuge found Tang Miaoxin, he has become much gentler in his behavior.
As long as the ministers in the court did not violate his bottom line, he would generally not offend their wives and children.
But what Zhong Yan did this time really angered Tang Jiuge.
Yu Han was stunned for only a moment and immediately understood what Tang Jiuge meant.
This kind of thing cannot be accomplished by one person. In addition to King Dingbei who is fanning the flames behind the scenes, there are other people with ulterior motives.
Zhong Yan's wife was a lady from a well-known family, and she was always considered to be smart and alert. Tang Jiuge had always valued her very highly.
Her failure to report the knowledge this time seemed to Tang Jiuge to be both selfish and ambitious.
Tang Jiuge was very disappointed with her, so naturally he would not stay any longer.
Yu Han lowered his head and said, "I will deal with this matter now."
Tang Jiuge said: "You lead people to continue chasing Zhong Yan. He has committed such a major rebellion and cannot be convicted so hastily."
"Liu Xingwang, go and declare to the Minister of Prosecution and Punishment and the Minister of Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate this matter. I want evidence for this matter and I want to give an explanation to the world."
Yu Han and Liu Xingwang responded together to deal with the corresponding matters.
On this matter, Tang Jiuge's attitude was very clear, and they all knew what to do.
The assassination of Tang Jiuge shocked both the government and the public.
The Changxing Bo Mansion was raided and everyone in the mansion was imprisoned, which made people in the court who had different intentions very uneasy.
Tang Jiuge recruited a bachelor and drafted a decree to seize Zhong Yan's title. Zhong Yan was wanted throughout the country.
Tang Miaoxin also heard about this in the East Palace.
It's just that she is away from the court all year round, and although she has met Zhong Yan a few times, she is not very familiar with him.
Although Tang Jiuge did not tell her who the assassin was this time, this series of events clearly told her who the real murderer was.
Zhong Yan's behavior reminded her of Emperor Cheng Ming, who would do anything to achieve his goals.
It is impossible for Zhong Yan's wife to be completely unaware of this matter, so she can't even sympathize with them.
Tang Miaoxin still understands Tang Jiuge's temperament. He can build Guiqian into a peaceful and prosperous era. He not only has the ability to govern the country, but also has iron-blooded methods.
