Yang Wu was not a person who was easily angered.
However, as long as someone touched his bottom line, no matter who it was, he would fight them to the death.
Wu Sanhao was a famous general and was also a prince. He was already one of the top figures in the hall. He even brought 100,000 soldiers to besiege the city. Who would dare to say that they wanted to kill his entire family?
Even when Yao Yanhai was alive, he did not dare to speak to Wu Sanhao like this.
Wu Sanhao turned his head to look at the two people who walked in. His old eyes flashed with admiration as he praised them in his heart: "What a pair of golden boy and jade girl."
Wu Sanhao was experienced and had a good eye for people. From the temperament and appearance of the young boy and girl in front of him, he could tell that this young boy and girl were different. Even if they spoke rudely to him, he still felt that they were not bad.
After Yao Lingyu saw Yang Wu, his eyes burned with anger. He wanted nothing more than to rush up and fight Yang Wu to the death.
"Yang Wu, you have guts. No wonder you are the son of a traitor. You even dare to kill Prince Wu's entire family. You really don't know the difference between life and death." Yao Lingyu sneered.
Another general shouted: "Quickly kneel and beg for mercy, or die."
This general was Wu Sanhao's right-hand man. He was already a lieutenant general and had followed Wu Sanhao back from the border. He was the most protective of his master.
There were also a few people who began to criticize Yang Wu. They believed that Yang Wu would not dare to act recklessly here.
Yang Wu completely ignored their words. He stared at Wu Sanhao and said: "Elder, I advise you not to be used as a tool. Otherwise, you will lose your integrity in your later years."
Yang Wu's words were full of warning. The other party was wearing a yellow dragon robe that belonged to a prince. He could tell that the other party was not ordinary, but did he care?
He had already offended the people of Mount Emei, so he did not care about offending others.
Moreover, there were some things that he did not take the initiative to provoke, but things always came to him. His deterrence was not enough.
"Haha, how many years has it been since someone dared to speak to me like this? You are the first. Not bad, not bad." Wu Sanhao laughed and said.
"Your Highness, this general will take him down." The general beside Wu Sanhao said.
This general's name was Lei Deming, and he had a strong appearance. He wore a thick armor and looked very mighty. He stared at Yang Wu with an extremely unfriendly gaze.
Wu Sanhao waved his hand and said, "This little brother stood up for his father and is worthy of praise. This offense will be decided after today's decision on who will be the new Empress."
"Your Highness is magnanimous." Yao Lingyu flattered.
"Your Highness is magnanimous." The others followed suit.
Yang Wu didn't think that the other party would actually be able to endure it. He couldn't help but have a higher opinion of this tall old man. He didn't continue to argue with the other party. He swept his gaze over the civil and military officials and said, "Are you all blind? Don't you see the princess? "
With Yang Wu's reminder, the civil and military officials looked at Tang Xiaohan and bowed. "Greetings, Your Highness. Long live Your Highness."
Tang Xiaohan calmly accepted their greetings and slowly walked towards the highest throne.
When she arrived in front of the throne, she knelt down in front of the throne and kowtowed to the ground.
Peng! Peng! Peng!
Tang Xiaohan kowtowed three times and each kowtow was very strong. Her delicate forehead began to bleed, making everyone who saw it feel very pained.
The civil and military officials didn't know what Tang Xiaohan meant by this. They just thought that she was missing the previous Emperor.
"Father Emperor, this child is unfilial, I still haven't been able to bury you."
"Father Emperor, this child is unfilial. The traitor's family is still out there, I still haven't been able to kill them and bury them with you."
"Father Emperor, this child is unfilial. The court is without a leader and Imperial City is in chaos. I can't help you restore order and intimidate the officials."
… …
Tang Xiaohan's words came from the bottom of her heart. Every word stabbed into the hearts of the officials in front of her, making their faces feel hot.
The Emperor was dead and he hadn't been buried yet. To start fighting for his throne, this was a great disrespect.
"Well said." Qiao San Ye couldn't help but agree with Tang Xiaohan's words. He then said, "The most important thing right now is to bury the Emperor."
"That's fine." Song Xiang muttered to himself before responding.
"Un, then let's bury the Emperor first. We old officials are in the wrong." Wu San Hao said with a bit of self-blame.
Yang Wu walked to Tang Xiaohan's side. He looked back at the civil and military officials and faintly said, "It's too late to think about these things now."
"Marquis Yang Wu, why do you say this?" An official asked.
"Since you want to choose a new Emperor, then choose one now." Yang Wu said with certainty.
"Humph, if we could choose one now, then the officials wouldn't be fighting here." Yao Lingyu coldly snorted. He then said, "Do you want to be the new Emperor?"
Just as he finished speaking, Yang Wu disappeared from where he was standing. Without waiting for everyone to react, they heard a crisp "pop" sound, followed by a pitiful scream. "Ahhh!" These two screams scared everyone out of their wits.
"I killed your father, but killing you is even easier. So don't test my patience." Yang Wu returned to his original position as if he hadn't moved. He stared at Yao Lingyu who had been sent flying.
Yang Wu's killing intent had already spread out. The civil and military officials present felt a chill. They didn't doubt that Yang Wu would really kill. This youth's strength was much stronger than theirs.
Yao Lingyu was so scared that he didn't dare to speak. The hatred in his eyes was even stronger. In his heart, he thought, "Yang Wu, I will make sure you die a horrible death!"
"Wu 'er, don't be rude." Yang Zhennan reprimanded.
"Father, you don't have to worry about this. Didn't they say that our Yang Clan is rebelling? Why don't they open their eyes and see who the real traitor is? Someone led a hundred thousand soldiers to surround the city. Isn't this a big traitor? " Yang Wu pointed at Wu Sanhao and scolded him. He then pointed at Yao Lingyu and said, "How many alchemists did the Medicine King Pavilion take for their own use? They even threatened the Imperial Court to supply them with herbs. If they don't, they won't refine pills for the Imperial Court. My Yang Clan has been loyal for generations, desperately protecting the Emperor. Where are you all sleeping? Who is the real traitor? Are your brains clamped? "
Yang Wu scolded the officials until their faces turned red. They didn't know how to refute, especially Wu Sanhao. Everyone knew that he had a hundred thousand soldiers surrounding the city, but because of his status, everyone wanted to curry favor with him. Who would dare to say no to him? Yang Wu said it in front of everyone. It was a solid slap in the face.
Although Wu Sanhao didn't care about being scolded, it was the first time he was scolded like this.
Lei Deming shouted, "Bastard, I'll kill you."
After saying this, he prepared to draw his sword and kill Yang Wu. Before he could draw his sword, Wu Sanhao stopped him and said, "You are not his opponent. Withdraw."
"Prince, this brat dares to scold you. If I don't kill him, it will be hard to vent the hatred in my heart." Lei Deming responded.
Other military officials also rubbed their feet, wanting to stand up for Wu Sanhao.
"You're called Yang Wu, right? I've heard of you. You're young and promising, full of vigor. But have you ever heard of the saying that too much is easy to break? "Wu Sanhao calmly looked at Yang Wu and asked.
Yang Wu met Wu Sanhao's gaze and said, "A traitor shouldn't talk to this prince about grand principles. How do you want to play? If I, Yang Wu, was afraid of your hundred thousand soldiers, I wouldn't stand up to scold you."
As he spoke, he took the initiative to take a step closer to Wu Sanhao. The power in his body was operating at its fastest speed.
At this time, Tang Xiaohan opened her mouth and said, "Yang Wu, you mustn't be rude to Prince Wu."
When Yang Wu heard Tang Xiaohan's words, he stopped and looked back at Tang Xiaohan, then said, "Princess, you have the final say."
After that, he returned to Tang Xiaohan's side, as if he was Tang Xiaohan's superior.
Tang Xiaohan looked at Wu Sanhao and asked, "Prince Wu, you brought so many soldiers to besiege the capital. If you're not going to rebel, then what are you going to do?"
Wu Sanhao didn't know how to answer Tang Xiaohan's question.
Is it to say that he brought so many soldiers to help Prince Fu An, or to save the emperor?
No matter how he answers, he can't escape from the name of a traitor.
While Wu Sanhao was speaking, Tang Xiaohan said, "Prince Wu, if I ask you to help me find Prince Fu An's family, are you willing to do it?"
Wu Sanhao didn't even think about it and said, "Just leave this matter to this humble servant. Even if I have to dig three inches in the ground, I will find them all."
Wu Sanhao surrendered.
This time, all the ministers were dumbfounded.
Wu Sanhao was the King of the opposite sex. He had a high position and power. His position here was only higher than people like Prime Minister Song and Grand Preceptor Hua. His position was very important, but he was subdued by the princess with just a few words?
It's hard for them to believe this is the truth.
"Mmm, then I will trouble Prince Wu." Tang Xiaohan softly said, then she looked at Prime Minister Song and said: "Prime Minister Song, my father relied on you the most during his lifetime. You were in charge of all the major and minor matters in the court. This time, Prince Fu An rebelled and damaged the palace. How about you follow up with the follow-up repair?"
"Princess, the most important thing now is to bury the emperor." Prime Minister Song responded.
Tang Xiaohan asked again: "I just want to ask you, will you take this matter or not?"
Prime Minister Song hesitated for a moment, then said: "This humble servant will obey!"
Prime Minister Song was very aggrieved. He is the dignified Prime Minister. How can this kind of repair work be handled by him? This is the Ministry of Works' job.
"Imperial Tutor Qiao, my father's funeral will be handed over to you." Tang Xiaohan looked at Qiao Sanye and slightly bowed.
Qiao Sanye hurriedly returned the courtesy and said: "Princess is too serious. This is this humble servant's duty."
Tang Xiaohan then looked at the officials and said, "My Imperial Father has just been killed by the rebels. Everyone is anxious to elect a new Emperor. If my Imperial Father knew of everyone's patriotism in the underworld, he would definitely be very comforted. However, shouldn't you all first pacify the people and suppress the rumors from spreading? The people are in a panic. They don't know what happened. I'm afraid the capital is already in a mess. I'm afraid the other cities will also be in turmoil. Don't you know this? "
She said with a strong sense of righteousness, which made the officials feel ashamed.
"Well said, I will protect the princess and become the new emperor!" A voice sounded.
