[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Chapter 203 Your Majesty, the Princess Beats the Prince Consort to Death

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, are you okay?"

"Your Majesty, I am guilty of being late in coming to your rescue. I deserve death!"

Wei Jiaping and Lord Gan looked Zhao Xuan up and down, fearing that something might go wrong.

Zhao Xuan patiently comforted the two old men and turned around to make it easier for them to check.

Ru Liangjun sent people to surround and kill the members of the Wei and Gan factions, and he also did not intend to let go of some ministers who were unwilling to stand on the side and rebel with him.

However, Zhao Xuan had already made arrangements, and those rebels were killed in the second they showed up, without even a splash.

He would not put loyal ministers and generals in danger just to capture Ru Liangjun. He would not put the cart before the horse.

Zhao Jue was still waiting at Ru Liangjun's house for them to welcome him into the palace, but after waiting for a long time, only Zhao Erya came.

Zhao Erya looked at the childish Zhao Jue and realized that he was just a puppet pushed forward by Ru Liangjun. She had no interest in making things difficult for him. She waved her hand and ordered: "Take him away!"

The rebellion came and went quickly, and thanks to Zhao Xuan's precautions, it did not cause large-scale bloodshed, nor did it affect the lives of the people outside the palace.

Zhao Xuan came to the throne in a legitimate way. After ascending the throne, he implemented benevolent policies, advocated light taxes and levies and rest and recuperation, and worked hard to restore people's livelihood that was caused by the previous emperor's warmongering in his later years. Therefore, he was quite loved by the people.

So Zhao Erya really didn't understand what Ru Liangjun was trying to achieve by doing this.

"What's the point?" Ru Liangjun laughed when he heard this.

After laughing, he looked at Zhao Xuan, who was sitting at the top, with a sinister look on his face.

"Think about me, Ru Liangjun, who has been following the late emperor since he was just an ordinary prince, helping him ascend the throne, eradicating the Grand Princess of Guo, and wresting power back from the Empress Dowager. I've been put in danger many times without even a frown. Even if I haven't made any contributions, I've certainly worked hard, right?" He slumped over and sat directly on the ground. "And yet, he actually let Qi Guanhong, a brat, be the Grand Marshal. Of the four regents, I'm actually ranked last! Hahahaha! Last!"

Ru Liangjun always thought that he and the late emperor were the closest monarch and subject, but the facts slapped him in the face.

He was unwilling to accept this. He wanted to be the Grand Marshal, the head of all ministers, rather than a small Guanglu Dafu.

He wanted others to salute him, rather than bowing and calling him "your humble servant" every time they saw someone.

He wants to be the first of the late emperor's remaining ministers!

Zhao Erya suddenly realized: "This is a story about him loving him, and him loving him!"

Zhao Xuan: ...

Sister, what are you thinking about?

He shook his head helplessly and signaled the eunuch beside him to give the box in his hand to Ru Liangjun.

Ru Liangjun was puzzled, but he had nothing to be afraid of now, so he opened the box without hiding or avoiding.

There was no flying knife mechanism inside, only a roll of yellow silk.

Ru Liangjun opened it and found the late emperor's will inside.

"...Wenyan is mediocre in talent but loyal and faithful...I hope the Crown Prince will treat him well and ensure he has a good end..."

Ru Liangjun, whose courtesy name is Wenyan.

The former emperor loved talents and selected virtuous and capable people for appointment, without judging official positions by age.

Although Qi Guanhong was the youngest, he was very talented, so the late emperor appointed him as Grand Marshal, the leader of the four regents.

Although Ru Liangjun was not as good as Qi Guanhong in governing the country, not as good as Changsun Anhe in fighting a war, and not as talented as Wei Jiaping in writing, due to the long-standing friendship between the monarch and his minister, Ru Liangjun was still included in the four regents, and a will was left asking the new emperor to treat him well.

Perhaps, the person the late emperor trusted most was this old minister who had experienced many ups and downs with him.

“Hahahaha…” Ru Liangjun held the will in both hands, crying and laughing, “The late emperor… The late emperor, hahahahahahahaha…”

Zhao Xuan said to Ru Liangjun, "Treason is a grave crime. Considering that it has not caused serious consequences, I will obey the late emperor's will and will not execute you. However, the death penalty may be spared, but the living punishment cannot. From now on, you will guard the late emperor's mausoleum!"

He stood up, no longer looking at Ru Liangjun, and called Zhao Erya: "Sister, let's go!"

The brother and sister walked out together, leaving Ru Liangjun's crying behind.

Zhao Xuan took advantage of this opportunity to deal with many restless ministers and took the opportunity to release his own people.

With Lai Fu as a plug-in, it is much easier for Zhao Erya to select people.

Of course, the final decision on whether to use it or not was made by Zhao Xuan, and she was just a reference at best.

The eighth princess, the tenth princess and the twelfth princess were all terrified. They had never expected that their husband's family would be involved in such a deadly thing as treason. They all went to the palace to take off their hairpins and apologize.

Of course, they didn't want to plead on behalf of their husband's family, but they were afraid of being implicated and afraid that Zhao Xuan would think they were in cahoots.

Zhao Xuan naturally knew that they were unaware of the situation, so he gave them some things as a consolation.

Zhao Erya took the opportunity to suggest that they divorce their husbands.

So, after reporting to Zhao Xuan, the three princesses went to find the Zongzheng, setting a precedent for women in the Xia Dynasty to divorce their husbands.

"How is this not progress?"

Zhao Erya said this to Liu Yunmei who was returning to the Princess Mansion to report on her nursing work.

Liu Yunmei nodded and looked at Zhao Erya with admiration: "Princess, you are right!"

Zhao Erya raised her eyebrows, touched Liu Yunmei's face, and joked, "I think the sun is square."

Liu Yunmei nodded again: "Princess is right!"

Now Zhao Erya was helpless.

Bai Zhu saw this scene and smiled.

Zhao Erya has figured out the reason for Bai Zhu's extremely high loyalty value.

When Bai Zhu was still a young palace maid, she accidentally offended the steward once and was dragged to a corner of the garden and slapped in the face. She happened to be seen by her original self.

Perhaps wanting to show his kindness, the original body stepped forward to rescue the little palace maid and transferred her to the greenhouse.

Later, the original body was about to get married, and Zhao Xuan ordered people to arrange palace maids for her. Bai Zhu took out all the money he had saved over the years, bribed the steward, and came to serve the original body.

Maybe this is what it means when you give someone a rose, the fragrance lingers on your hand.

In the original plot, the original body was held hostage by his accomplices in the rebellion. Bai Zhu risked his own life to rescue him, and eventually became the dead soul at the hands of the rebels.

The sun made Zhao Erya drowsy. She smacked her lips and suddenly felt like eating noodles. Just as she was about to ask Bai Zhu to go to the kitchen, Cheng Zhi ran in.

"Princess," Cheng Zhi saluted, "The Emperor sent someone to say that your armor is ready!"

When Zhao Erya heard this, she stopped eating the noodles and hurriedly took Cheng Zhi into the palace.

The brother and sister had made a bet before. If Zhao Erya won, she would ask Zhao Xuan to make her a set of armor.

Now, the armor is finally completed.

After Zhao Xuan got it, he was troubled for a few days, and finally sent someone to call Zhao Erya.

He held the Queen's hand and muttered, "Sister, you're such a fool! Why do you have to go to the battlefield? Swords are blind, how dangerous!"

The queen gently comforted her, "The princess also wants to share your worries."

Zhao Xuan sighed.

In his later years, not only did the late emperor kill all the adult soldiers in the country, but there were only a few generals left who could fight.

Now that the Tiefang tribe is invading the border again, Zhao Erya predicts that they may declare war on the Xia Dynasty by next year at the latest. It is still a problem who to send to fight then.

Zhao Xuan was about to complain a few more times when Zhao Erya came out wearing armor.

She walked around Zhao Xuan and the Queen and asked, "How is it?"
