Chapter 723
Ever since Prime Minister Xiao was banned from the mansion, all the ministers were waiting to see how the Emperor Chu would deal with him.

After all, the Xiao family is a century-old family with deep roots. It will not happen overnight if it is to be completely eradicated.

The Emperor of Chu was closing his eyes and thinking about how to deal with Prime Minister Xiao, when Mrs. Xiao came later: "How does the emperor want to deal with the Prime Minister?"

Emperor Chu slowly opened his eyes, and asked lightly: "What does the queen mother want me to do?"

"The emperor is also a father, and he also has a son who loves and cares for him. Even if he commits a heinous crime, he wants to cover it up for him. Seeing his most cherished son in danger and doing nothing, can the emperor do it? "

"As the queen mother said, Prime Minister Xiao loves his son dearly. Therefore, it is human nature to allow his son to commit murder and frame a good minister. What about Father Xue? He just wants to seek justice for his daughter, so should the whole family be punished? Tu? If everything is only about closeness, then what's the use of national law?"

"In the eyes of the emperor, the law is merciless, but in the hearts of the Ai family, there are only two words: closeness and estrangement. The Ai family raised you and treated you as their own. Therefore, I will devote all the strength of the Xiao family to promote you to the throne of God and help you become the respected and respected person of all people. The Lord of the world, if there is no such love, how can the emperor be where he is today?"

Empress Dowager Xiao helped him ascend to the throne of God just because he was gentle and easy to control, but now, she was able to calculate these plots and call them affectionate.

Emperor Chu sneered silently: "Is the queen mother saying these things to make me bend the law for personal gain?"

"Ai's family has already lost a close relative, and they don't want to lose another one. Ai's family is getting old and can't bear such parting."

Empress Dowager Xiao was strong all her life, but she never thought that she would pretend to be weak, and she would hide needles in her cotton. If she shouldn't, she might kneel in the Zichen Palace in the next moment.

Emperor Chu was silent for a long time, looked into Empress Dowager Xiao's gaze, extremely gloomy, and said slowly: "I rule the world with benevolence and filial piety, and I will fulfill my mother's wish, and I will repay the Xiao family's kindness. From soil to soil, there is no distinction between relatives and estrangements, only the distinction between monarch and minister."

The look in Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes suddenly paused.

Emperor Chu wanted to make it clear that he had a clear relationship with the Xiao family.

Empress Dowager Xiao paused for a moment, then said: "The emperor is benevolent, the Ai family will replace the Xiao family, thank you Emperor Long En."

After Empress Dowager Xiao left, Emperor Chu issued an imperial decree, ordering Prime Minister Xiao to be confined in the mansion for one year, fined his salary, shutting himself in the mansion to reflect on his mistakes, not to go to court, and not to discuss government affairs indiscriminately.

When Ling Yue told Rong Jiu the news, she had a look of resentment on her face: "Finally, there is a chance to overthrow the Xiao family, so he can't be punished, and His Majesty still retains his status. If you want to overthrow him next time, I'm afraid It's getting harder."

Rong Jiu didn't feel too surprised, and continued to tinker with perfume: "There is nothing difficult in the world, as long as there is no chance for someone with a heart, just create an opportunity. The world is unpredictable, and who knows, one year later, in Chang'an, Will there be a Xiao family at the head of the family?"

"These days, King Ning has been gathering the forces of the Xiao family. Now that Prime Minister Xiao has been grounded, the general situation is gone. I'm afraid that people's hearts will fluctuate and he will be more useful to King Ning. Princess, I must never let King Ning come back again."

"If he wants to die, let him secretly collect evidence of his crime of forming a party for personal gain. Prime Minister Xiao is confined to the mansion. I'm afraid he is too free. If you find something for him, he won't focus on us."

"Princess, do you want King Ning and the Xiao family to tear each other apart?"

"With King Ning's current power, I'm afraid he's going to hit a stone with an egg. When he grows up slowly and has the ability to compete with the Xiao family, this show will be wonderful."

 When I opened the pit and filled in the information, I chose the single order. I saw that my relatives said that my article was a monthly subscription, but in the end I had to order it separately. I was afraid that there was some misunderstanding. I checked the background, and it was also a single order.
