The Prime Minister and the Imperial Censor were not members of the Shao family and would not help the Shao family with anything. They were all loyal to the Emperor. The Crown Prince appointed by the Emperor was the legitimate heir and the future Emperor of the kingdom. They would naturally protect him no matter what.
Jiuye sent Wei Zizhan to the Prime Minister’s residence, and the Prime Minister and Imperial Censor naturally did not even think about it and promised to send Wei Zizhan safely to the Emperor.
The Prime Minister and the Imperial Censor entered the royal study thereafter.
The two large boxes behind him were carried in.
After Shao Zhongxi dealt with the last batch of men of sacrifice sent by the Ji family, he raised his head to look at the time. He knew that the Prime Minister and the Imperial Censor should have sent his nephew safely to the Emperor. Thus, he did not bring any carriage back. He took two men and rode to the Imperial Palace in a hurry.
At the first gate of the Imperial Palace, his elder brother, Shao Boqi, was already waiting there with his men. However, his brother’s right arm was injured and was now tied up with gauze hanging around his neck.
He didn’t look too good either. He should have been injured elsewhere to cause his face to look like that.
However, now was not the time for small talk. The two brothers hurried into the palace.
When the Ji family heard that Shao Zhongxi had ignored the carriage and gone straight to the Imperial Palace, they realized that they had fallen into a trap. Everyone was in a state of panic. They were even prepared to escape to the West.
It was certain that the Crown Prince would acknowledge his place and return to his position. It just depended on whether the Shao family still had irrefutable evidence for the Emperor to punish them.
Once they found out, their people in the palace would immediately report to them and they would run away.
If they didn’t have solid evidence, they naturally wouldn’t go to the West to rebel.
There was really no other way to prevent them from dying in the capital now.
As long as they rebelled, they could live for a few more years.
The Western Garrison Army only had 200,000 men, but the Great Plume Army had more than 200,000 men. The Southern Garrison Army alone had 200,000 men. If they really wanted to rebel, it had to be the last resort. There was no other way.
In the palace.
When Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi arrived, the head eunuch was the first one that spoke. He was respectfully bowing with both hands at his side when he was greeting Emperor Hao and Wei Zizhan.
“Greetings to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor.” Shao Boqi and Shao Zhongxi both knelt down, but only Shao Boqi spoke.
Shao Zhongxi was still as cold as ever.
Emperor Hao knew that it was because he didn’t protect his nephew well and that caused him to wander outside, making his Empress live in pain of missing her son all these years.
Back then, when he married the Empress, he promised the Shao family that he would protect her well and let her live her life as carefree as when she was a girl.
He failed.
Ever since his son had gone missing that year, his cold brother-in-law had been like this. He stopped talking to the Emperor.
However, the Shao family had been loyal for generations. The Shao family’s ancestral teachings were to be loyal to the monarch and to love the country. Therefore, even so, this brother-in-law still regarded him as the Emperor.
It could be said that in Shao Zhongxi’s eyes, he was no longer a brother-in-law. He was just an Emperor. Emperor Hao first sighed in his heart before saying, “Get up.”
“Thank you, Emperor!” Shao Boqi stood up.
Shao Zhongxi stood up as well. He was still as cold and expressionless as ever.
A young eunuch was holding a small tea tray. He removed the red cloth on the small tea tray and saw two daggers lying inside.
The Prime Minister and the Imperial Censor stood at the side.
Emperor Hao picked up one of the daggers and opened it. The dagger made a cut on his fingertip and then dripped a drop of blood into the bowl of clear water..
