Chapter 14 Shock from the Empress!
hum!
A soft sound.

Li Qingcheng sat up straight, with a divine light in his eyes, looking directly at the prince in front of him.

"What did you just say? Say it again!"

"You mean the Zhu Jiu Clan?"

Eunuch Wang took a step back subconsciously, only feeling the energy and blood surging in his body, and he was a little shocked.

Although he had never seen the Holy Master make a move, he only knew that the other party was extremely powerful, but he did not expect that the other party could suppress him with just a look in his eyes.

You must know that you are a master in the inner circle, and a monk who has entered the fourth rank can push himself to this level. I am afraid that the current saint has already passed the fourth rank and become an extraordinary powerhouse.

Thinking of this, Wang Gonggong buried his head even lower.

"Your Majesty, Dali Temple Minister Xiao Yi is upright and righteous, so that..."

boom!
Li Qingcheng's aura was released again, Wang Gonggong was forced to take a few steps back, and the energy and blood in his body surged, which was difficult to contain.

"What did you say earlier, tell me again, who do you think is upright?"

Li Qingcheng pressed the table with one hand, leaned forward slightly, and said expressionlessly.

"Who did you just say was upright, Xiao Yi? That Xiao Yi from Dali Temple? The leader of the Xiao Party? That old fox with a deep palace?"

If it weren't for the empress's high level of cultivation, she would even think that she had heard it wrong, because what Wang Gonggong said was so shocking that the empress couldn't help but ask again and again.

If it wasn't for the old man who had stayed in the palace for decades, she would have even thought that the other party was deceiving her.

As the empress of the Great Qin Dynasty, few people know better than her what happened in the court.

Because of the low population of the royal family, as a woman, Li Qingcheng was forced to ascend the throne, so that her foundation was unstable, so she could only use the imperial mind to try her best to balance the situation in the court.

And Xiao Yi, Minister of Dali Temple, as a second-rank member of the Great Qin Dynasty, is the most important pawn under Li Qingcheng.

In Li Qingcheng's eyes, few of these important ministers in the court are good things, they are all a group of cunning old foxes.

If it wasn't for worrying about the families behind these people and the power of powerful families, if it wasn't for the lack of strength of the imperial court, if it wasn't for the fear of chaos in the world...

I'm afraid Li Qingcheng sent troops long ago to wipe out all these people.

But now the prince actually told her that Xiao Yi is an upright and upright official, what kind of joke is this?
Facing the empress's repeated questions, the prince's speech speed was much faster than usual.

He told everything that happened in the Yamen of Dali Temple in detail.

If not, he would be afraid that he would be made to prostrate on the ground by the empress' aura a few more times.

After Li Qingcheng listened to Wang Gonggong's report, the entire imperial study room fell into a deathly silence.

Time seemed to have been frozen, leaving only the wisps of smoke from the incense rising slightly in the corner of the study.

After a long silence, Li Qingcheng stretched out her right hand and gently rubbed her temple. She couldn't even maintain her aura as the king of a country.

Xiao Yi, that old fox in court, is actually an upright and upright Master Qingtian?

He didn't want to collude with those people in the family, and he had been undercover in the Xiao family for many years, just to collect evidence, just to send them all to the guillotine?
And just said a sentence, for later generations to warn, it actually aroused the cultural resonance in Dali Temple?
All of the above, Li Qingcheng always feels that he is listening to a story.

She rubbed her temples with a headache and kept organizing her thoughts.

No matter what, Li Qingcheng was unwilling to believe that an old fox like Xiao Yi would actually be the kind of righteous, upright and good person that Wang Gonggong said!
The prince standing aside slightly lowered his head, he didn't dare to make any sound, for fear of disturbing the thinking of the current empress.

After a long time, Li Qingcheng finally sat up straight, and she asked.

"Is Xiao Yi imprisoned in the Prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice now? Is that Minister of Criminal Justice, Bai Yunsheng, imprisoned as well?"

Facing the empress' question, the prince shook his head slightly, and then replied.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Lord Xiao and Lord Bai are currently in the prison in Dali Temple."

When Li Qingcheng heard the words, there was a flash of light in his eyes.

"You mean you're not in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice?"

"Hmph, could it be that Xiao Yi is acting? One must know that he is the Minister of Dali Temple, and everyone in Dali Temple is his people. Now that he is acting out a play where he shuts himself up, who would believe him? "

Wang Gonggong was a little anxious when he heard the words, and he quickly explained.

"Your Majesty, it's not that Lord Xiao wants the servants of Dali Temple to imprison him, but those people in the Ministry of Punishment are afraid to do anything. In desperation, Lord Xiao forcibly ordered the servants of Dali Temple to take him and Bai. Imprisoned by adults."

Unlike Li Qingcheng, Wang Gonggong personally witnessed the process of Xiao Yi's decision in the courtroom of Dali Temple.

Not only did he see that Xiao Yi still took out the communication jade that Xiao Chen had used to contact the deputy leader of the Demon Sect even though Xiao Chen was free from suspicion, but he also saw with his own eyes the vision of Xiao Yi's cultural resonance.

Wang Gonggong believed in Xiao Yi from the bottom of his heart!
As a prince who is loyal to the royal family, he tried his best to keep this talent for the royal family, but he must not let the current empress misunderstand Xiao Yi!

Li Qingcheng glanced at Wang Gonggong in surprise, she really did not expect that in less than half a day, Xiao Yi would be impressed by Wang Gonggong who had followed her for many years.

Let this prince, who is the supervisor of the rites, admire him so much!
After hesitating for a moment, Li Qingcheng decided to wait and see what happened, she said indifferently.

"Since Xiao Yi has imprisoned himself in the prison of Dali Temple, he has also personally issued the order to kill the nine clans of the Xiao family!"

"Then I want to see with my own eyes, whether he dares to kill his own son, whether he dares to kill the nine clans of the Xiao family?"

"Does he dare to really accept the judgment he personally issued, and accept the judgment from the law frankly!"

After saying that, Li Qingcheng waved his hand impatiently.

"Go and keep an eye on Xiao Yi, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Dali Temple, and the Xiao family yourself!"

"If Xiao Yi is really a gentleman of integrity as you said, then I will naturally forgive him, and reward him vigorously, and use him for my own use!"

"But if he dares to deceive the king..."

Li Qingcheng didn't say the last half of the sentence, but an invisible chill had enveloped the entire Imperial Study Room.

After the prince heard this, he bowed respectfully and continued to stay, but turned and left without hesitation.
