Chapter 1266

"Are you the subjects of the emperor, or the subjects of the old minister who returned home after a crime? !!"

Gu Jiuci raised her voice and spoke coldly, letting everyone in the room hear what she said.

Some people's expressions froze, and they quickly stopped their entertainment and stood up politely, but most of them, especially those officials who had been in the Ministry of Household Affairs for many years, were still minding their own business and looked down upon Gu Jiuci. Like nothing.

Gu Jiuci was also mentally prepared. She calmly took out a bright yellow imperial edict from her sleeve.

"So, you old men are planning to become the subjects of the old minister? Let me remind you that the former Minister of Revenue, Liu Yishou, committed a heinous crime. His Majesty Jinkou Yuyan confiscated all the family property. If he hadn't had a piece of it, he would not have to die. With the gold medal in his possession, do you think he can return to his hometown?

Liu Yishou has a gold medal, what about you? ! "

Gu Jiuci's voice was cold. After the words fell, these people finally couldn't hold back any longer. Some broke out in cold sweat and some trembled all over.

The man with the highest official position immediately threw himself in front of Gu Jiuci and knelt down.

"This official is confused! Please atone for your sins, Mr. Gu!"

Others knelt down and cried bitterly, begging for mercy.

Gu Jiuci held the imperial edict in his hand and swept the group of people on the ground coolly.

"Only now do you know how to beg for mercy? It's too late!"

After she finished speaking, she displayed the imperial edict in her hand, and two rows of Ouchi guards immediately rushed out from behind and surrounded the officials kneeling on the ground.

"Today, I will issue orders on behalf of the emperor. All the traitors who collaborated with Liu Yi in the past will be detained."

"Sir, spare your life! Your lord, spare your life!"

Those people who were so arrogant and arrogant just now all turned pale with fear and begged for mercy.

Gu Jiuci's eyes were cold, and despite the countless wails, she just looked on coldly, like a god of murder.

Half a year ago, she already knew the list of party members headed by Liu Yi from the Ministry of Household Affairs.During the spring hunt, she had already asked Emperor Chu for an imperial edict.

Anyone who dares to make her unhappy either remains silent or... is about to die!

Outside the door, Huo Mingche's deep gaze fell firmly on Gu Jiuci.

"Your Majesty, it's an unlucky time for us to come."

Zhan Ying said meaningfully.

"Grandma, it turns out that Gu Tanhua has such a deep and cold side? It makes me tremble when I see her!"

Ye Kan couldn't help but stretched out his hands and hugged himself.

"Zhan Ying, go help."

Huo Mingche looked away, gave a faint order, and turned around.

Zhan Ying was stunned now.

"Your Majesty, didn't we come to see Mr. Gu to discuss the matter of envoys?"

Huo Mingche paused and looked sideways slightly.

"No, she will be very busy these two days."

Gu Jiuci was indeed very busy. After cleaning up the household department, many official positions were vacant. She had to select new candidates to fill them non-stop.Liu Yishou left her a huge mess.

While she was dealing with the mess, she had to spend money to make the Shangsi Festival a beautiful one.

After years of war, the national treasury was empty. When the envoys came to see him, they had to show the national prestige of Xiliang. Makino could not let Makino see the weakness of Xiliang and take advantage of it.

It was really difficult for her, but fortunately there were more solutions than difficulties. She finally saved the face of Xiliang Kingdom.

On the day of Shangsi Festival, the entire city of Chang'an is draped in red and decorated with lanterns, lighting up the cities as bright as day. All the people take to the streets with their families to watch the lanterns, and there are so many tourists that it's so beautiful.
