After the marriage, the disabled war king was spoiled by me

Qiao Zhiyu was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Princess, I admit that I am guilty, but I do not regret it. This court is corrupt and the emperor is incompetent. I just want to seek a better future for the world."

Du Yunsheng snorted coldly: "Who do you think you are? Do you think you can change all this? You are just a traitor who wants to usurp the throne!"

At this time, footsteps were heard in the palace, and the emperor himself came in. He was wearing a dragon robe, with a serious look and a sharp gaze.

"Du Yunsheng, Qiao Zhiyu, there is no need for you two to say more. The evidence is conclusive that Qiao Zhiyu was conspiring to rebel and usurp the throne. He is a crime that should not be forgiven." The emperor's voice was calm and firm.

Qiao Zhiyu raised his head, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes: "Your Majesty, I admit that I am guilty, but everything I did was for the people of the world. If you want to kill me, then please kill me, but please don't implicate innocent people."

The emperor was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Qiao Zhiyu, do you think your crime can be easily washed away? Do you think your motive can excuse you? You are wrong. Your crime has offended the majesty of heaven. No matter what, you must be punished."

Du Yunsheng looked at Qiao Zhiyu, his heart beating.

"Your Majesty, please give an order to execute Qiao Zhiyu on the spot." Du Yunsheng said coldly.

A trace of despair flashed in Qiao Zhiyu's eyes, but he did not struggle. He just looked at Du Yunsheng deeply, and then closed his eyes.

The emperor waved his hand, and the imperial guards immediately took Qiao Zhiyu away. In the Prime Minister's Mansion, the atmosphere was solemn for a while.

Du Yunsheng turned and looked at the emperor, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, do you really believe that Qiao Zhiyu is plotting a rebellion and usurping the throne?"

The emperor smiled slightly: "Du Yunsheng, don't you understand? Qiao Zhiyu's crimes have been proven to be irrefutable. He rebelled and usurped the throne and poisoned me. This is an indisputable fact."

Du Yunsheng was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Your Majesty, if you really believe that Qiao Zhiyu rebelled and usurped the throne, then please punish the murderer severely and seek justice for the people of the world."

The emperor nodded and said, "Du Yunsheng, don't worry. I will punish the murderer severely and seek justice for the people of the world. But before that, I need your help."

Du Yunsheng was stunned: "Your Majesty means..."

The emperor smiled slightly and said, "I want you to take over Qiao Zhiyu's position as the chief minister of the cabinet."

Du Yunsheng's eyes widened. She had not expected the emperor to make such a request. She hesitated for a moment, then slowly said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to serve the people of the world, but I am worried that I am not capable enough to be the Prime Minister."

The emperor patted Du Yunsheng on the shoulder and said, "Du Yunsheng, don't worry. I believe in your ability. As long as you are determined, you will be able to take on the position of Prime Minister."

Du Yunsheng's heart was moved. This was the emperor's trust in her and also an affirmation of her ability. She took a deep breath and then slowly said: "I am willing to accept the emperor's appointment and serve the people of the world."

The emperor smiled slightly, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

With Du Yunsheng's assistance, the future of the Western Wei Dynasty will be brighter.

One night, when everyone was asleep, Du Yunsheng sat alone in his study, looking at the bright moon outside the window, and prayed silently in his heart: "Master Qiao, may your soul rest in peace in heaven."

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door. Du Yunsheng was stunned, then slowly stood up and walked towards the door. She opened the door and saw a figure standing in the moonlight. It was the emperor.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Du Yunsheng smiled slightly.

The emperor looked at Du Yunsheng, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Du Yunsheng, I came to see you and the guilt in your heart."

Du Yunsheng felt warm in her heart, she knew that the emperor cared about her. She sighed softly: "Your Majesty, I do feel guilty, but I will work hard to make the Western Wei Dynasty more prosperous to make up for the guilt in my heart."

The emperor smiled slightly: "Du Yunsheng, don't worry, I believe in your ability. As long as you are determined, you can do it."

Du Yunsheng looked at the emperor, with a gleam of determination in his eyes: "I will definitely not let the emperor down."

……

At this time, the General's Mansion.

When Wei learned that the Qiao family was in trouble and Du Yunsheng was named Princess Zhaoyang, her face turned completely dark.

Wei's face was as gloomy as the sky, chilling. She waved her cane and shouted excitedly:

"No, no! I want to divorce my daughter-in-law Qiao Tingyu immediately! Since her Qiao family has fallen on hard times, our Zhengxi General's Mansion cannot have anything to do with her anymore!"

Qiao Tingyu stood aside, her face pale, fear and pleading in her eyes.

Once divorced, her status in the capital would plummet, and she might even be implicated by the Qiao family and fall into an irretrievable situation.

Princess Zhaoyang Du Yunsheng coughed softly, breaking the silence. She walked forward slowly, smiled slightly, but there was a barely perceptible coldness in her eyes:

"Old Madam, calm down. Although the Qiao family has suffered, Qiao Tingyu is our daughter-in-law after all. If she is really wrong, we should give her a chance to reform. Besides, if she is really divorced, it will cause criticism from the outside world and will also be detrimental to the reputation of our Zhengxi General's Mansion."

Wei's eyes widened and glared at Du Yunsheng: "Du Yunsheng, are you considering me or Qiao Tingyu?"

Du Yunsheng still kept smiling: "Old Madam, I am of course thinking about you. If Qiao Tingyu is divorced, her family will definitely seek help everywhere, and I am afraid that our Zhengxi General's Mansion will be implicated. Moreover, if Qiao Tingyu is really innocent, wouldn't we have wronged her?"

Wei snorted, and her expression softened a little. She turned her head and looked at Qiao Tingyu, her tone cold:

"Qiao Tingyu, tell me, why didn't you tell your husband that the Qiao family was going to be in trouble? Don't you know that if your husband knew in advance, he might be able to save the Qiao family?"

Qiao Tingyu's body trembled, tears welled up in her eyes. She bit her lip, holding back the tears, and said in a trembling voice:

"Madam, I know I was wrong. The Qiao family was preparing for an important business at the time, and I was afraid that leaking the information would cause unnecessary trouble, so I didn't tell my husband. I didn't expect the Qiao family to suddenly suffer such a disaster. I... I'm sorry to my husband and to the Zhengxi General's Mansion."

Wei looked at Qiao Tingyu coldly, with a hint of hesitation in his eyes. At this time, Du Yunsheng spoke again:

"Madam, Qiao Tingyu has admitted her mistakes, so let's give her a chance. Besides, although the Qiao family is in trouble, Qiao Tingyu's family is still there. If we divorce her, I'm afraid we will have a feud with them. Why don't we let her stay in the mansion and keep a close eye on her? If she makes a mistake again, it won't be too late to divorce her."

Wei was silent for a moment, weighed the pros and cons, and finally nodded: "Okay, let's do as you say. However, Qiao Tingyu must accept the punishment as a punishment."

Qiao Tingyu quickly knelt down and kowtowed in response: "Yes, I am willing to accept the punishment."

Afterwards, Wei ordered the servants to take Qiao Tingyu to the confinement room and let her reflect on herself. Du Yunsheng looked at Qiao Tingyu's back, with a flash of sympathy in his eyes, but soon regained his composure.
