Only seven days left to live? She goes crazy and kills
Chapter 96 The crazier the better
Today's imperial city is simply in chaos.
Because the eldest princess suddenly accepted a male favor, the families of the officials involved exploded. After several officials went to the eldest princess's mansion, they went to the Pingyang Marquis' mansion to investigate.
Pingyang Hou was forced to hide at home and did not dare to come out.
After Yan Yushu was rejected at the Princess's Mansion, as soon as the carriage returned to the Marquis' Mansion, she heard the news that officials had come to make a fuss. She felt uneasy and didn't know how to appease the angry and clamoring ministers outside. Surrounded by others, he hurried back to his room.
Neither husband nor wife dared to show up.
But Shen Yunshan and Du Shilang were both important officials in the court and held real power. How could they be allowed to hide?
The four officials worked separately. Du Shilang was responsible for interrogating the servants in the mansion. Shen Yunshan broke into the mansion directly to see the old lady of Pingyang Houfu. Sheng Lanfu ordered his wife to be called over and asked her to see Princess Fengyang. This matter must be clarified.
Pingyang Hou Mansion is in chaos.
In just two hours, the news spread like wildfire, and all the powerful families in the royal palaces knew about it.
Yan Zhang and Yan Ming were injured and lay on the bed unable to move.
Moreover, one of them had just sent his subordinates to deliver a message to King Wuyang, and now he had to hide his power and bide his time, while the other had just been demoted to a county prince and hated Yan Donghuang deeply, so he was naturally happy to see her go crazy.
It would be better if she was so crazy that the world reviled her, so crazy that the ministers were afraid, so crazy that everyone betrayed her relatives, and so that her father and the emperor also hated her as soon as possible.
The other princes were not in the mood to watch the excitement at the moment. They just wanted to avoid the limelight and had no intention of getting involved in this matter.
Probably all brothers think the same way.
They just wanted to watch Yan Donghuang commit suicide, and even thought of a sentence: If God wants him to die, he must first make him crazy.
Go crazy, go crazy, the crazier the better.
It would be best to offend all the officials in the court before her father dies. Even if she has the Qingluan Army at her disposal, no minister in the court will really support her.
Just when the princes decided to wait and see what happened, Yan Donghuang had already calmly discussed the disaster relief matters with Prime Minister Pei, and asked Prime Minister Pei to recommend a candidate - but it was only a superficial decision.
Disaster relief is related to people's livelihood. Once someone embezzles from it, the lives of the people will be harmed.
They embezzled a thousand taels of silver, which may have caused thousands of people to starve to death because they could not get food.
Therefore, Yan Donghuang will never allow any mistakes in this matter.
The important government affairs in the court are not only disaster relief, but also the scientific examination for the coming year, the emperor's dragon body, and the Minister of War and his family who will take the vacant seat after it is beheaded.
The vassal prince who was guarding the border sent a document to the capital and wanted to come to the emperor in person to ask for the performance of the local officials, whether the corrupt officials had plundered the people's wealth, and whether the local bullies had raped the daughters of good families...
The discussion in the study lasted for two full hours.
Even the lunch of the council ministers was delivered to the study by the maid, and they took a few hasty bites before continuing.
The whole process went smoothly. It was already evening when the discussion ended. Prime Minister Pei and Taifu Qi resigned and left. After returning, they would arrange everything Yan Donghuang ordered.
Only King An has not left yet.
He wanted to talk to Yan Donghuang alone, and Yan Donghuang agreed.
The place of conversation was not in the study, but in the garden.
The garden in winter is actually not a good place to drink tea, but discussing things in the study is a lot of work. Since we are chatting, we naturally have to find a place with a nice view where we can relax.
The window of Nuanting is slightly open, and the winter wind blows in through the window, like a sword blade scraping across the skin, causing a biting chill.
Yan Donghuang was wrapped in a fox fur cloak, and his usually cold and distant face now looked a little more lazy. .
Chang Yue brewed hot tea and brought it, gave one to Yan Donghuang and King An each, and then left with lowered eyebrows and eyes.
Yan Ling's eyes fell on the tea cup, her eyes seemed to be in a trance: "I didn't sleep last night."
Yan Donghuang closed his eyes and took a sip of tea: "I didn't sleep much either."
Yan Ling choked and sighed softly: "Donghuang, I want to call you this way, so that you appear to be familiar and familiar. You are a relative and a family member, not an unfamiliar relationship between king and minister."
Yan Donghuang said nothing and gently blew the foam on the tea.
"I didn't sleep last night, and I couldn't help but think about the past." A look of nostalgia appeared on Yan Ling's face, "When we were young, we were carefree and had a deep relationship. It was a pure brother-sister relationship without any contamination. Power Calculation.”
Yan Donghuang's voice was indifferent: "People always have to grow."
"The price of growth is very heavy." Yan Ling smiled bitterly, looking lonely, "Donghuang, is power really that important?"
Yan Donghuang raised his eyes and looked at him: "Since you said that we have a deep relationship, then I want to tell you that I am fighting for this position not entirely for power, but for the Yong Kingdom, for the people of the world, and for my Qingluan Army. Do you believe it?"
Yan Ling said nothing.
"Look, you don't believe it at all." Yan Donghuang sneered, "So don't tell me that brother and sister have a deep love. It's very hypocritical."
Yan Ling pursed her lips: "If other royal brothers ascend the throne as emperor, they will also work hard to make the Yong Kingdom strong, let the people live a good life, and treat the Qingluan Army well. It's not..."
Yan Ling lowered her eyes and said in a lower voice: "It doesn't have to be you."
Yan Donghuang put down the tea cup, relaxed his body, and leaned on the large chair: "I wonder who you like in your heart?"
Yan Ling's expression changed slightly, and then she said truthfully: "I don't really care about anyone in my heart. I just saw that you had a good relationship with the Second Emperor Brother before, so I thought you would support him."
"Since you haven't set your sights on anyone, accept the reality of the moment." Yan Donghuang didn't want to talk any more, and quickly ordered, "Come on, send the guests away."
Yan Ling sat there without moving, looking at Donghuang without saying a word, with many emotions surging in his eyes, like sadness, like sadness, but in the end it just turned into a sigh.
He stood up as if resigned to his fate, saluted to Yan Donghuang with a humble attitude, and said goodbye and left.
Yan Donghuang looked at the untouched teacup in front of him, his expression calm, and the temperature in his eyes dropped to the freezing point little by little.
