In a chaotic world, border soldiers begin their journey by enlisting in the army and getting married
Chapter 153 A Behind-the-Scenes Invitation!
The guards who acted rashly were easily subdued by Chen Shan in the blink of an eye.
Chen Shan's gaze fell directly on the prime minister.
This was also the first time Chen Shan had met this prime minister.
Despite Chen Shan's pointed remarks, the prime minister remained calm and composed.
Empress Huangfu Zhaoxue, on the other hand, had her brows furrowed, and her anger was evident on her face.
Chen Shan's unbridled behavior in the imperial court was an attempt to target the prime minister and exonerate the Xiao family.
However, the Imperial Guards, as the army under the emperor's command, completely disobeyed orders and even tried to silence them!
Doesn't this mean that the Imperial Guards were not under her, the emperor's, control at all?
"Outrageous! How dare you make decisions on your own before I have even given the order!"
Huangfu Zhaoxue was furious. Chen Shan glanced at her and then said, "Your Majesty, it seems that things are not peaceful even in the palace."
"It seems your power as emperor has long been usurped."
Chen Shan spoke very frankly.
Faced with the witnesses presented, Chen Shan's requirements were very simple.
"Does the prime minister think he can escape everything by pretending he knows nothing?"
"This is not something you can avoid just because you want to."
Under pressure from Chen Shan, the prime minister resorted to his usual rhetoric.
It's nothing more than saying that those below misled those above and fooled them; in short, it's telling them that this matter has nothing to do with him.
It was done by someone else.
They wanted to use someone as a shield, but since Chen Shan dared to come and do this, he must have already prepared many methods.
The Black Ice Observer has already gathered a great deal of evidence during its investigations over this period.
Especially those in the Hanlin Academy, faced with a series of pieces of evidence and the terrifying strength Chen Shan had demonstrated, the civil officials dared not confront him head-on.
After all, the terror Chen Shan had displayed earlier had already left an unforgettable impression on them.
Nobody wants to be punched to death!
That's definitely a situation they don't want to see.
As the saying goes, when a tree falls, the monkeys scatter. The interests among civil officials may seem to be united, but in reality, they are in complete chaos, like a pile of loose sand.
There was absolutely no sense of cohesion, since the prime minister's downfall meant that all these officials had the opportunity to advance further!
This is the imperial court.
In the past, the prime minister wielded great power, and no one dared to offend him. Naturally, everyone gravitated towards the prime minister. But now the situation is different.
With his terrifying strength and madman-like methods, Chen Shan forced this group to compromise, and even the prime minister found it difficult to deal with him.
No matter how nice his words were, or even his threats, they couldn't sway Chen Shan in the slightest.
Just as the standoff was slowly reaching a deadlock, the Fourth Prince and his consort, Chu Zhiyue, walked in from outside the court.
The two entered and immediately revealed the secret, which Chu Zhiyue exposed on the spot, along with evidence.
This directly exposed the prime minister's true intentions.
The prime minister used his daughter to win over the princes and plotted to seize power and usurp the throne.
This was an absolute capital offense, and it was something the prime minister couldn't refute. Clearly, he hadn't expected that the pieces he was controlling were beyond his control.
It was fine before, but after Chen Shan appeared, these chess pieces really seemed to become uncontrollable.
This greatly displeased the prime minister, but he was powerless to do anything about it.
At this moment, he has naturally lost all advantage.
With the combined efforts of various parties, the prime minister had lost all advantage, and the Southern King also saw this situation and stepped forward as well.
The prime minister held immense power, but at this moment, those who had once served him deserted him, some even trying to trample on him.
As for the military power he believed he held, it was actually insignificant.
In terms of controlling the army, King Nan Tu was by no means lacking.
Over this long period of time, it wasn't just the prime minister who took action against the army.
The entire court assembly, after a fierce exchange, ultimately ended in the prime minister's defeat.
Of course, pulling out the radish brought out the mud, and many people were also cleaned up along with it.
The Southern King seized the opportunity and joined forces with the emperor to eliminate most of the prime minister's faction.
The entire process took a full seven days before it was completely eradicated.
During these seven days, the imperial edict exonerating the Xiao family was issued, finally overturning the verdict.
This also completely put an end to the obsessions in the hearts of Xiao Ningning and Xiao Zhen.
For Chen Shan, the whole thing went very smoothly. Huangfu Zhaoxue wasn't as foolish as he had imagined, and she did quite well, knowing how to seize opportunities.
The Chen residence.
The entire mansion was filled with joy, and Chu Yiren's mother had already been brought out.
They were never favored by the prime minister, so neither Chu Yiren nor her mother had much affection for him.
At most, it's just a moment of sadness.
Therefore, the whole thing ended happily for everyone.
"My lord, I didn't expect things to go so smoothly this time."
"Now that the prime minister has completely fallen from power, the trouble is over."
"Then we can finally live a peaceful life."
In the past, they were afraid of implicating Chen Shan and bringing him danger.
But things are different now.
Now, all they want is to live a good life with Chen Shan.
"Of course, you can do whatever you want from now on."
"Our family isn't too poor."
Chen Shan said with a smile that Wang Xiaoya was doing well in business. In addition to cooperating with the Southern Tu King's Mansion, the funds that Zi Xian gave her also enabled her to start her business smoothly.
It can be said that it is very good in all aspects.
"My lord, now that the Xia Kingdom's court has undergone changes, I'm afraid the neighboring countries will also be eyeing us covetously. Although this prime minister used to wield immense power, he must have secretly colluded in many things."
"In the past, with his transfer of benefits, it seemed that Xia Kingdom was stable and there were no problems, but now the situation is different."
As Xu Sijing spoke, she said that during her time teaching, she had gained a general understanding of many things happening in the outside world.
Chen Shan's cooking skills are indeed amazing and unbelievable.
However, even though it was achieved, it will also bring about a series of chain reactions.
There are many things to consider regarding these chain reactions.
Chen Shan had already understood what Xu Sijing meant.
"It's alright. War is inevitable, especially since there are seven kingdoms. With so many countries, how can there be peace?"
"Even if a real war breaks out, we don't need to worry."
Chen Shan has never been particularly interested in fighting. In the past, military merit was required, but things are different for him now.
These unnecessary things are no longer needed, so naturally there is no need for them.
Moreover, even when war broke out, Chen Shan showed no fear whatsoever.
"My lord, the people from Zixian Tower have contacted me."
