Si Changqing opened his mouth and wanted to persuade, but the empress' face was full of determination.
All of a sudden, the words that Si Changqing wanted to say were blocked.
"ah?"
After Zhang Luzhi heard the empress's promise, he immediately opened his mouth. There was a dull look on his face at first, but then he became ecstatic.
"Mr. Zhang, I don't need you to think about it later to prove this. I made an imperial edict on the spot!"
The empress had a cold face, leaving no time for Zhang Luzhi. She waved her sleeves and quickly dropped the pen in her hand.
The embroiderer who was serving on the side immediately opened the imperial edict and asked the empress to write it quickly.
Under the watchful eyes of all the officials, the empress finished writing the imperial edict in a short time.
The empress picked up the imperial edict and blew it gently, causing the wet pen and ink to dry instantly.
Then the empress turned around, handed the imperial edict to the embroiderer, and said:
"My dear friends, please take a look at it. The relevant content is written in black and white on the paper. If there are no mistakes, then this matter will be established."
After the words fell, the imperial edict was also in the hands of the officials. The officials began to circulate it one after another. Every official nodded after reading it, and each one nodded in agreement.
After the imperial edict was circulated, the officials said respectfully:
"Your Majesty, the content of the imperial edict is correct."
The empress put the imperial edict away, and was secretly happy because she knew that although Wu Zhongxian's character was a bit out of tune, there was nothing to say about his actions.
This time, she will definitely be able to take back the power and completely regain the right to speak in the Qin court.
However, this is not the time to rejoice, after all, this matter has not happened yet.
After the empress put away the imperial edict, she looked down, her expression as indifferent as ever, and she said in a light tone:
"Everyone, now that things have reached this point, we have to wait for the news from the follow-up messengers and the arrival of witnesses and evidence. Although the eight-hundred-mile expedited route is a bit fast, but for those with cultivation, the speed is not at all
Not slow."
"I estimate that after another three hours or so, the sects in Minshan will be able to arrive!"
"At that time, the truth of the matter will naturally come to an end!"
After saying that, the empress glanced down lightly.
The officials looked at the empress above, and no one dared to say anything more!
After all, they had just fought hard with the Empress. At that time, there were so many people that it was not easy for the Empress to punish them.
But if you still dare to take the lead now, then let’s wait for the Empress to settle the score!
However, Zhang Luzhi didn't think so at this time and said directly:
"Your Majesty, if you wait like this, if no one comes later, what will happen?"
The empress glanced at Zhang Luzhi with a cold light, her eyes filled with disgust.
Zhang Luzhi was not afraid at all and directly looked at the empress.
After all, he has broken up with the empress now. If he enters, he will be rich and prosperous. A thousand-year dynasty is no longer a dream!
But if you take a step back, you will be waiting to fall into the abyss!
"snort!"
"Isn't it enough for me to put it in black and white? Or Zhang Luzhi, you plan to force the palace?"
The empress directly had a showdown with Zhang Luzhi, without giving the other party any face, and said coldly.
"hehe……"
When Zhang Luzhi heard this, he turned to look at the officials around him. When he saw that no one came up to help him, his heart instantly became cold.
I didn't dare to say anything more at the moment.
"Qing Jun, let Da Qin be innocent!"
"Wu Zhongxian is the destroyer of the Qin Dynasty, behead him in public display!"
…
Just as everyone was silently waiting in the palace for the arrival of the messenger mentioned by the empress, bursts of shouting suddenly came from outside the palace.
The sound was so loud that even the empress and officials in the main hall heard the sound.
One by one, they turned their heads and looked outside, wanting to know what was going on behind them.
However, there are many high walls in the palace, which have long separated people.
The empress frowned, looked at the embroiderer, and asked:
"What sound?"
The officials couldn't see what was happening outside, so they subconsciously looked at the empress.
Zhang Luzhi, who was at the front, had been lying on the ground and never got up because of the request.
Now that the voice came, he heard it clearly.
After listening for a while, he immediately learned that he was attacking Wu Zhongxian, and Zhang Luzhi also had a proud look on his face.
This shows that the people have spontaneously demanded that Wu Zhongxian be severely punished.
Later, the empress wanted to win the trust of the people, so there was no way to keep Wu Zhongxian. Naturally, his plan was successful.
If the empress protects Wu Zhongxian to the death, then his plan will be successful.
Because he was the one who took the lead against the Empress, some people later felt that the Empress could no longer hold the throne, and they must have gathered on him.
So no matter what happens, Zhang Luzhi is the winner!
Soon, an embroiderer quickly ran in from outside. After arriving in the hall, he immediately said:
"Your Majesty, the people in the capital gathered spontaneously and said that Wu Zhongxian had committed a major crime and requested that your Majesty punish Wu Zhongxian severely!"
"At the same time, it is also an explanation to Da Qin!"
When the empress heard this, she immediately became furious and said sternly:
"How brave, who gave them such courage, how dare they..."
When the empress said this, she immediately seemed to realize something.
He stopped talking, then turned around and said:
"My dear friends, follow me out to see what is going on!"
After the empress finished speaking, she immediately stepped down from the dragon chair, came to the front position in the queue, and walked out with all the officials.
During this process, the empress looked at Zhang Luzhi intentionally or unintentionally, as if to say, you are also responsible for this!
Zhang Luzhi felt very depressed when he saw this scene.
What's going on? Whenever there's a problem, it's always on him!
However, when he thought about the Zhang family's achievements after everything was done, Zhang Luzhi didn't say anything and followed the crowd out.
The empress came to the pavilion above the palace, looked down, and found that it was completely dark.
It is roughly estimated that there are at least hundreds of thousands of people, so it is not surprising why they can hear the sounds outside in the hall.
After the empress arrived at the city wall, she heard the slogans shouted by people outside, and she also had a bad look on her face.
After all, these people here can't help at all.
More importantly, it was a disservice, directly setting Wu Zhongxian on fire.
The empress frowned and went up to the highest point of the tower, looking down at the people below.
When the people saw the empress coming out, their voices became louder and more intense.
