Chapter 733: Fulfill her wish

Because he was thinking too much, he didn't hear what Zhao Shu said clearly.

Zhao Shu took a few steps forward, walked up to him, grabbed his arm, pulled

him up, and shouted: "I have taken the Empress Dowager, the cabinet, the clan,

the Jin family, the Zhongyong Hou's Mansion, and the Superintendent of Rites,

all Called to Chengqian Temple. All of them are there now, to listen to the

emperor's announcement of the latest decision about Lihou."

Zhao Yuanjing's eyes hide a trace of dazedness.

This made Zhao Shu hesitate, but he still said firmly: "You go to promulgate

the imperial decree and make Gu Yundai the queen. And the canonization

ceremony will be held immediately."

Zhao Yuanjing twitched the corners of her lips: "Why should I listen to you?"

"Because you have to listen." Zhao Shu said word by word, "The military power

in the northwest is in my hands. I have just removed several major military

powers from the princes, and I will control them for the time being. The

30,000 soldiers and horses in the capital, including Xu Hu's hands. My eight

thousand Jinyiwei guards are all under my control. As for some of the troops,

they are in the hands of the Zhongyong Hou’s Mansion. The old man dotes on his

daughter and granddaughter like his life, if he is forced into a hurry... Yuan

Jing, guess what he will do ?"

Zhao Yuanjing's pupils shrink slightly.

"The emperor thought, what is the minister doing these days?" Zhao Shu said

coldly, "you don't need to be shocked or doubt. The minister can immediately

mobilize a million soldiers and horses to level the capital and the palace

where Gu Yundai is buried. "

Zhao Yuanjing didn't look flustered either.

He just smiled faintly: "It seems that Xiaohuangshu really likes my woman very

much."

Zhao Shu did not speak.

Zhao Yuanjing said: "Since you like her so much, she was kept here for more

than a month, what are you doing. Now that everyone is gone, you are

threatening me with this treason. What's the point? "

Zhao Shu was silent for a while, and said in an extremely calm tone: "When she

was alive, I respected her wishes. Now she is leaving, I...come to give her a

parting gift."

"Shut up!" Zhao Yuanjing said angrily, "She won't die!"

"The minister is waiting for the emperor in the Chengqian Hall." Zhao Shu

said, "If the emperor does not come, the minister has to make an decree for

the emperor and declare her as the queen.

Zhao Yuanjing smiled lightly and said: "Little Emperor has deep roots in her

love, and I trust you in every way. Even so, I still give you all the military

power. Now you have the ability to oppose me and stand on your own as the

king. Just let her do it. Wouldn't it be better for your queen?"

"The minister will never rebel." Zhao Shu said, "Even if there is, the

minister will not be the emperor. Nor will Gu Yundai be the queen of the

minister."

"Why?"

"Because she just wants to be your queen." Zhao Shu said.

Zhao Yuanjing's heart was shaken.

After a long time, he slowly stood up and said: "I will go to Chengqian Palace

with you. If you can convince the clan elders, the empress dowager and the

people of the world, I have nothing to say."

Chengqian Temple.

Sure enough, everyone is already waiting here.

Except for the empress dowager, her face was ashen, sitting motionless in the

chair, the others knelt and bowed.

"Get up." Zhao Yuanjing sat on the dragon chair with a calm face and scanned

the surroundings.

Ming Lao Hou Ye couldn't bear it first, and said: "I beg the emperor to show

his favor, and let the old minister see his granddaughter!"

"Please be kind to the emperor!" Ming Xiuwen and Ming Jing father and son also

knelt behind Hou Ye.

As for Mingwei, because there is no official position, it is not qualified to

come in.

Zhao Yuanjing looked at them and said blankly: "I will let you see her. But

before that, I have something to discuss with everyone."
