Chapter 370 I’m going to die, the empress is angry
She felt fear from the bottom of her heart. Although she herself did not understand why she felt this way, the fear still came suddenly and swept through her whole body.
She didn't know how to respond for a moment!
Just as Ye Qinnan was retreating, Han Zhuo suddenly grasped the sword in his hand and stabbed at Ye Shisanniang at high speed!
Because Han Zhuo's action was so sudden, Ye Shisanniang reflexively reached out and grabbed Han Zhuo's wrist before she could react.
He snatched the hilt of the sword from Han Zhuo's hand and stabbed the blade directly into Han Zhuo's shoulder!
Ye Shisanniang's sword was quick and decisive!
The sharp sword blade directly pierced Han Zhuo's shoulder!
Han Zhuo only frowned slightly, still smiling. He even teased Ye Shisanniang, "Your swordsmanship is superb. I didn't even feel any pain from that strike!"
Ye Shisanniang's reaction to Han Zhuo's words was completely beyond the expectations of Ye Qinniang and Han Zhuo.
At this time, Ye Shisanniang's beautiful contact lenses were trembling slightly, and tears suddenly filled her deep eyes.
Then a tear slid down her beautiful face.
Before Han Zhuo could react to what had happened.
Ye Shisanniang turned around, turned into a shadow, and rushed out of the carriage window.
At this moment, not only Han Zhuo, but even Ye Qinniang was stunned.
Obviously, he didn't expect his sister to make such a big move.
But after all, sisterhood is deep, and Ye Qiniang said to Han Zhuo: "My dear, we are leaving first."
Ye Qinnan also quickly followed Ye Shisanniang and rushed out of the carriage.
Only Han Zhuo was left sitting in the carriage, blinking in a daze.
"Sigh~~~"
It was not until the sudden pain in his shoulder that Han Zhuo realized that he seemed to be injured.
Just at this moment, Han Zhuo heard the shouts of his coachman not far away.
"Quick! Quick!"
"My master's carriage is right here, go and save them!"
Han Zhuo had a smile on his face.
The coachman of her family was specially selected by Yang Pan'er. He is an honest man.
We used to be neighbors in their compound.
After Yang Pan'er became the empress, she was completely different from ordinary people. She did not abandon her old neighbors. Instead, she gave them some rewards based on their own characteristics.
However, these rewards are small. After all, Yang Pan'er knows very well that human nature is greedy. The more they are given, the less satisfied they will be.
Moreover, it is better to teach people how to fish than to give them fish. Yang Pan'er is also very clear about this.
So she just gave these people a better livelihood.
At the same time, only those who are trustworthy will be placed around Han Zhuo.
Han Zhuo listened to the approaching footsteps, his eyes turned slightly, and then he fell directly onto the wooden board of the carriage.
Play dead!
Sure enough, at this time two Jinwu Guards got on the carriage first.
When they saw Han Zhuo lying on the ground, they were so scared that their faces turned pale!
You know, Han Zhuo is the most popular person around the empress!
He is so injured now that he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.
This made the two of them tremble with fear!
They stretched out their hands tremblingly and placed them on Han Zhuo's nose. When they felt Han Zhuo's breath, the two finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They looked at each other and quickly asked the coachman to drive the carriage to escort Han Zhuo home.
For a time, the news that Han Zhuo was injured on the way home spread like wildfire, and the court was shocked!
The next morning, officials groped in the dark, holding lanterns, and sneaked to the outside of the Council Hall, waiting to attend the morning court session.
While waiting, everyone was talking privately about what happened yesterday.
Official A: "Hey, Doctor Zhang, have you heard?"
"It seems Han Erlang was assassinated and seriously injured. His shoulder was pierced by a sharp sword. He was lying on the wooden board of the carriage, covered in blood!"
Doctor Zhang: "This kind of thing has spread everywhere. Who doesn't know about it now?"
"The question is, who did this?"
Official A chuckled and said, "Needless to say? Of course he's from the Li family."
"Don't talk nonsense like that! You can't just accuse others without solid evidence!"
While the two were talking, an official named Li interrupted them.
Official A was from the Lin family. He looked at the other man with a cold smile and said, "I think it's almost certain that your people did this!"
"After all, the biggest suspect now is the man surnamed Li!"
Official Li: "You're talking nonsense! Don't spit bloody words at me!"
Just as the two men were about to start fighting with their fists, someone nearby coughed.
Then he sternly scolded them, "What are you doing? You are all officials of the fifth rank and above. Don't you know that you should set a good example?"
"His Majesty will naturally make a judgment on the assassination of Minister Han. You don't need to worry about it here!"
The person speaking now is Zhongshu Ling Zhou Muli, the current Taifu!
Zhou Muli had a very high prestige in the court and was also the emperor's teacher.
Therefore, when he opened his mouth, no one dared to say anything more, and they all turned their faces away and didn't look at each other.
Fortunately, the palace gate slowly opened at this time. With the eunuch's shout, civil and military officials lined up in two rows and slowly entered the council hall.
When everyone entered the hall, they couldn't help but show surprise on their faces.
It was because the empress Yang Pan'er was already sitting on the dragon throne at this time!
You know, under normal circumstances, Yang Pan'er would definitely wait until everyone was in position before entering through the side door.
And today, she obviously came early!
At this moment, Yang Pan'er was as cold as ice, and her chill was overwhelming.
Seeing this, the people below were all feeling nervous!
After all, since Yang Pan'er ascended the throne, she has given people the feeling of being as gentle as jade and as refreshing as the spring breeze.
Although she still has the majesty of an emperor, her natural gentleness does not make people feel too distant.
Now this group of people stood in front of Yang Pan'er, but they couldn't help but swallow their saliva secretly.
Facing the empress, somehow, they all felt uneasy!
Anyone who was swept by Yang Pan'er's gaze lowered their heads.
If there was a hole in the ground at this time, I'm afraid they would all crawl in without hesitation!
To die!
What's going on today?
The sense of oppression from His Majesty is too strong!
Be careful in what you say and do, be sure to be careful in what you say and do!
Yang Pan'er looked at the others below with an expressionless face, then said coldly, "Yesterday evening, Han Erlang was assassinated on his way home and was seriously injured. Do you know about this?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other.
Yes, everyone knows it, but they don’t dare to admit it now!
After all, judging from the empress's current expression, anyone who is involved in this matter will probably find it difficult to escape!
Therefore, most officials look at their noses with their eyes and their hearts with their noses, and all of them have an expression of "I don't know, it has nothing to do with me".
Yang Pan'er slowly turned her head and looked at a white-haired old man on Zhou Muli's right.
This person's name is Li Shenghao, and according to seniority, he is Li Yuhao's great uncle.
After Li Rongdun's death, he took over the position of Minister of Revenue.
He is also a very important figure among the Li family.
Yang Pan'er directly asked Li Shenghao, "Minister Li, what do you think about this matter?"
Although Li Shenghao was usually a smart guy, he really didn't know how to answer at this moment.
He only found out about this matter early this morning. When he learned that Han Zhuo was stabbed but not dead, he had only one thought in his mind.
Finished!
The Li family is in big trouble!
Not to mention whether this matter has anything to do with their Li family, even if it doesn't, I'm afraid someone will implicate them in this matter!
After all, just two days ago, they, who had just succeeded to the throne and were still young and had no idea that it was the sinister Li Yuhao, said that he would summon all the officials of the Li family in the court to impeach Han Zhuo together!
Fortunately, he suppressed it immediately, so the situation did not get worse!
However, who could have imagined that Li Yuhao, a boy who was just in his early twenties and had succeeded the head of the family for a few days, would be so reckless as to dare to assassinate the empress's most favored minister within the capital!
This is not just a personal hatred between Li Yuhao and Han Zhuo!
This has completely escalated into a conflict between the Li family and the new emperor!
Although after the empress ascended the throne, she did use some means to suppress the Li family.
However, Yang Pan'er suppressed not only the Li family, but also the Murong family and other corresponding aristocratic families.
These are some of the necessary actions a new emperor must take after ascending the throne.
After all, every emperor has his own ministers, and every emperor will use this method to check and balance the adopted ministers.
But, Li Yuhao is such an idiot!
Through this foolish act of assassination, he actually pushed the Li family completely to the opposite side of the empress!
This is clearly an attempt to go against the emperor, isn't this courting death?!
At present, the entire imperial city’s guards and the Jinwu Guards are under the control of the empress.
The military power of the Li family and the Murong family was also mostly taken back.
Apart from anything else, if the empress were to attack them collectively, the consequences would be unimaginable!
So, Li Shenghao, a shrewd man, made a decision in an instant to give up Li Yuhao!
Originally, the elders in their family were very dissatisfied with Li Yuhao's promotion.
However, they all belong to the side branch and have no way of deciding the inheritance of the main family.
But as the saying goes, a wise bird chooses a tree to roost in, the Li family still has a direct descendant, and he is now in Yong'an County!
Compared to Li Yuhao, Li Yujun is more or less human.
So, he immediately bowed to Yang Pan'er and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know!"
"Really? Then look at what this is!"
Every word that uttered from Yang Pan'er's lips and shoulders was like ice chips!
Everyone could clearly feel that the empress, who was usually as friendly as the wind, was angry!
