Quick Wear: About the Things I Saved from the Villain

A week has passed since the heads of the Shen and Xie families were dragged away from the morning court.

This week, people in the capital city cheered.

With the fall of the Shen and Xie families, those families that relied on their connections to bully others lost their backing, so Tang Li naturally would not let them go.

The big ones were all dealt with by her, so it was just a piece of cake for the little one.

Every day a long list of people were dragged away to be beheaded, many of whom had oppressed the people and it was no exaggeration to say that they were the people’s greatest enemies.

How could the people not be happy when their enemies were about to lose their heads? Not only were they happy, they also remembered that these bad officials and bad families were all dealt with by His Majesty!

In addition, Tangli had been adjusting policies in various aspects to reduce taxes in the past six months. For a time, people's praise for Emperor Tangli reached its peak.

Compared with ordinary people, officials have had a harder time. They can be said to have been walking on thin ice this week.

It is said that dynasties come and go but families remain forever.

Their Majesty, oh no, it was their late emperor and his Majesty, but two generations of emperors were able to reduce the huge aristocratic family group to this level. If it were them...

Ha, there are not enough heads for the whole family to chop off.

And for some reason, those who were confiscated, exiled, and beheaded would always pass by their mansions.

The cries and confessions entered my ears vividly.

We must not offend His Majesty, many ministers thought.

With this thought in mind, today's morning court was still as peaceful as ever.

Well, Your Majesty seems to be in a good mood, so is it time to adjourn the court?

The court officials waited and waited, but instead of receiving the order to adjourn the court, they received an imperial edict.

"Sixteen years ago, in order to avoid being controlled by the Shen family, my father, the Empress, and my mother planned a secret together."

After hearing this, many veteran officials had already realized that something was wrong.

The late emperor, the late empress and... Your Majesty's biological mother, Empress Xian? !

What kind of combination is this? The Empress Xian back then was not of the same family... and I have always heard that she and the Empress were at loggerheads and were not on good terms. Is this a joint plan?

All the ministers who were able to attend the morning court had a keen political sense (except Wen Junhuan), and they already had a vague premonition that something big was about to happen.

Sure enough, the next second——

"They concealed my true identity together, causing the Shen family to let down their guard, which brought a long period of peace."

Well, although the power of the aristocratic families has been silently eroding during this period of time, let’s just say whether it is peaceful or not!

The ministers were already stunned and could only hear thunder rumbling in their ears.

Your Majesty's true identity? What does this mean? It's impossible that Your Majesty is not the son of the late emperor?

"boom--"

Just as they were still pondering the meaning of Tang Li's words, the door of the hall was suddenly closed. The person who closed the door was General Wu'an Wen Junhuan, who did not attend the court today.

Not only did he close the door, he even brought a team of guards with swords at their waists!

The ministers were immediately in an uproar. Some were about to ask questions, but they heard His Majesty at the top speak slowly and calmly.

"My dear ministers, please don't panic. General Wen is just helping you to eliminate some interference outside the palace."

"Now, read the decree."

"Yes."

Eunuch An respectfully opened the imperial edict, but after just one glance, his expression suddenly changed and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"this......"

Tang Li glanced at him lightly and said, "Read it!"

Eunuch An gritted his teeth and said:

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, summons me. I have a second daughter, the second princess Tangli..."

The ministers below could not hear what was said afterwards and they all stared at Tang Li with wide eyes.

Second what? What girl? Second girl what?

Even after the edict was finished reading, the ministers below were still in a daze. Wen Junyan, who was among the ministers, nodded secretly.

That's right, this is the right reaction to something so hard to accept and unbelievable.

Compared with this group of old guys, his performance was relatively calm and he could even quickly respond to His Majesty's words.

Tang Li spoke only after he thought that their brains could work. It was a female voice that was very unfamiliar to the ministers.

"This is the whole story. Do you have any objections to my succession to the throne?"

Objections...of course there are.

How can a woman become an emperor?

Before the confused people came out, Wen Junyan had already stepped forward.

"In reply to your Majesty, I think you all have no objection."

"Oh?"

You are such a brat! Why do you have no objection when we haven't said anything yet?

Some people were indignant and wanted to argue with Wen Junyan, but they heard what he continued to say.

"I believe that the former emperor and even the royal family knew your Majesty's identity. This was a helpless move to stabilize the Shen family. I believe you have all seen the effect."

The noble families headed by the Shen family thought they had hope and lived in peace for a while. Not only did they not resort to desperate measures, but they were severely torn off by the late emperor.

"This is one of them."

"Secondly, the royal bloodline is rare. The late emperor's descendants are only the late crown prince, the eldest princess, and your majesty. The eldest princess is not good at government affairs, so it is most appropriate for the throne to be passed on to your majesty. I believe the late emperor also thinks so."

Tang Li: No, the late emperor never thought that there would be a day when she would take the initiative to reveal her identity.

"Third, since your majesty ascended the throne, you have worked hard to govern the country and loved the people. You have also successively eliminated treacherous ministers such as Xie Changjun and Shen Zhi. Forgive me for speaking frankly, but your majesty is a man of unparalleled virtue. With your majesty here, you will surely lead Dajing into a prosperous and glorious era that has not been seen in a hundred years!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

Seeing Wen Junyan kneeling on the ground, the other ministers almost cursed him to death in their hearts.

What's going on with Minister Wen? I haven't heard that he's been close to the Minister of Revenue recently? Where did he learn this?

Oh, yes! They have a Minister of Revenue!

As expected, when the Minister of Revenue came out, the eyes of all the ministers were shining.

Quick! Use your ability to scold this kid!

The Minister of Revenue, who was highly expected, knelt down and shouted:

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

He doesn't care about men or women. He only knows that Your Majesty and the late emperor are the only two people who can protect him. He doesn't know what kind of personality the other emperor would have. Why should he take the risk?

After the Minister of Revenue took the lead, the court officials looked at each other and shouted, "Long live the emperor!"

Nearly two-thirds of those who knelt this time, except for the old ministers left by the previous emperor, most of them were promoted one after another in the past six months to fill the vacancies in official positions of aristocratic families.

They were still clear-headed and knew who gave them the opportunity.

Tang Li nodded with satisfaction, and his gaze slowly stopped on the remaining people standing.
