    On the third day of June, the capital was still under martial law.

    Two days ago, the prince and other princes launched a rebellion. The sound of the bloody war in an attempt to kill the king and seize the throne seemed to be vaguely close to his eyes. There were no traces of people on the streets that used to be noisy. Everyone locked their doors and stayed at home to stay safe.  .

    Waiting for things to end.

    The matter did not end in one day.

    Everyone¡¯s hearts can¡¯t be at peace for a day.

    Everybody is waiting.

    They are all waiting for news from the palace.

    Waiting for the emperor to speak.

    At this time, in the Zichen Hall of Daqi Imperial Palace.

    All the ministers were as silent as cicadas.

    They didn¡¯t even dare to move, let alone talking. They were much more careful with their breathing, for fear of breathing too loudly and offending the emperor.

    ¡°Oh, you are really my good son.

    I haven't reached the age where I can't move in bed, but everyone is thinking about sitting on my dragon chair, thinking about regicide and father, and brothers fighting against each other. It's because I'm so good to you that I make you forget that you are the king, minister, father and son, you are here.  In front, is the son behind?

    And you, too your wife!

    "As long as I don't die, you will always be a prince. What I give you is yours. You can't take it away. Now, I don't want to give it to you anymore.

    Come, come and draw up a decree!

    The prince committed a rebellion against his superiors and was demoted to the rank of common people. He was imprisoned in the royal palace. The title of the prince's concubine and all the prince's heirs were deprived of their titles. They were all demoted to the rank of common people and were not pardoned.

    The empress did not know how to educate her son. She and Duke Cheng'en's family participated in the prince's rebellion, deposed the queen, and was thrown into the cold palace. Duke Cheng'en confiscated his family and exterminated his family, but he was not pardoned.

    The third prince also committed rebellion. He wanted to die and be buried with the rites of a county prince. The mother of the third prince had no way to teach her son, so she and the queen were thrown into the cold palace.

    "The eldest prince had an affair with the leader of the imperial army, attempted regicide, was treasonous, demoted him to a common people, and imprisoned the palace, and all his children and heirs also became common people"

    The third prince is dead after all. As the saying goes, death is like a lamp going out. The dead are always cherished more than the alive ones. Even if there are mistakes, they can be excused by saying that everyone is dead. Therefore, even if Emperor Kangwei is at this time,  He was already furious, but he still showed mercy to the third prince's lineage and never punished them severely.

    ¡° But how much of it was due to the love between father and son, and how much of it was due to fear of the military power of the third prince¡¯s mother-in-law, Concubine Hui¡¯s mother-in-law, the Duke of Jingguo.

    That¡¯s hard to say.

    But in any case, compared to the other relatives and concubines of the princes who participated in the palace rebellion two days ago, the third prince's mother-in-law, Concubine Hui, and her uncle's family, Duke Jingguo, did suffer the least losses. However, the death of their prince  .

    Who knows which one is good or which one is bad?

    Emperor Kangwei above was furious.

    None of the ministers present below dared to come forward to speak, let alone intercede, because they knew very well that after the emperor finished talking about the punishment of the princes, it would be their turn. Now they might not even be able to protect themselves, so how could they?  I'm in the mood to intercede with those princes and concubines.

    They had to save their voices and ask the emperor to spare his life.

    Words like "I will die forever".

    as expected.

    After Emperor Kangwei got angry and issued several decrees, he began to target the ministers in the court, because in his view, even if his son made mistakes, his mistakes were limited.

    The reason why they committed rebellion must be because these ministers stood in line to provoke others and wanted to gain some merit from the dragon. This is why they made their sons commit such treasonous mistakes.

    Therefore, how can we not anger them.

    The ministers who were actually directly involved in the rebellion had already been eliminated two days ago. Now the remaining ministers either knew about it and did not report it, or they were not aware of it, or they only gave some other support and did not directly  Among the ministers involved, Emperor Kangwei targeted those ministers who did not report the knowledge and gave support.

    As his decree was issued, the ministers in the court were quickly dragged down one by one by the Black Ice Guards. Those who struggled fiercely or kept shouting injustice were directly hacked to death on the spot.

    After a while, the number of ministers in the court was reduced by nearly one-tenth. It was not that the remaining ministers had no knowledge or involvement, but that Emperor Kangwei knew that if he continued to kill, no one would do anything.

    So we can only stop and punish the remaining ministers with demotions or salary fines.

    Finally, before leaving, Emperor Kangwei made another decree, which was to ask the chief steward to send a message to call back the fifth prince who was playing outside.

    No way??

    From the eldest prince to the sixth prince, except for the fifth prince who was not in the capital, the remaining five princes all participated in the rebellion. Among them, the third prince died, the prince was decapitated, the eldest prince was molested, and the fourth prince had his arm broken.  , the sixth prince was blind in one eye, and only the fifth prince was left who was in good health and had no fatal mistakes.

    All the ministers know that the emperor has called the fifth prince back now, presumably to make the fifth prince a prince, because there are currently only six princes in the royal family, and the other five princes have been deposed. Who will inherit the throne if it is not given to the fifth prince?  Inheritance, it is impossible to adopt a branch of the royal family.

    It can be said that as long as the fifth prince does not commit suicide and is safe and sound, then the throne of Daqi will definitely be his in the future.

    It¡¯s really pie in the sky.

    Two dogs fight, play off.

    ¡­¡­

    Not to mention what the court is, what is the folk.

    Next to the quiet corridor in a remote area in the east of the palace, the original Jinghan Palace was what is now commonly known as the Cold Palace. This was the place used by the previous dynasty to imprison some erring concubines. Now it is said that they were put into the cold palace, but in fact it is not the same as the former dynasty.  There is not much difference between the concubines imprisoned here, they just have a different wording to make it sound better.

    As soon as Qiao Mu woke up, he felt a little pain in his head. At the same time, his ears were buzzing, and the sound of women crying was everywhere, which was very annoying.

    At this moment, even though Qiao Mu had not yet opened her eyes, she knew it was not a good time to receive the memory, so she quickly closed her eyes and used the guidance technique to adjust her breathing slightly. After feeling better, she secretly opened her eyes.  I opened my eyes and looked around, trying to understand the situation first.

    "No, we don't want to lock him up here."

    "Let me out, let me out, I am the concubine, damn bitch, let me out!"

    "My dear, my dear, please calm down!"

    "Queen, what should we do?"

    "Hahahaha, someone finally came to accompany me, Concubine De, you vicious woman, you never thought you would come in one day, I will strangle you to death!"

    "Amitabha, you have committed evil!"

    "Hey, Wenkang, do you think I'm not cruel enough? If I had poisoned him directly, maybe my son would have succeeded."

    ¡°My dear, you can¡¯t talk nonsense.

    Be careful, the walls have ears.  "

    ¡°Haha, I heard it, I heard it.

    "Come on, come on, come on, there's someone here who wants to kill the emperor, I've done a service, I want to get out, let me out, I'm here to save him" (Remember this site's website address: www.hlnovel.com
