Chapter 789 Your Majesty, please take precautions early.
Grand view.
Empire.
royal palace.
"Your Majesty! It has been verified that Jia Daoshi, the Inspector of the Imperial City Guard, is recruiting private soldiers under the guise of training bodyguards, colluding with various forces in the martial arts world, controlling Youzhou County, and cultivating his own power. His intentions are despicable. I urge Your Majesty to take precautions as soon as possible!"
"That's right. In Youzhou County now, people only know Jia Daoshi, but not His Majesty or the power of the royal family. Most of the ambitious people in the martial arts world have been recruited by him!"
"His Majesty……"
"..."
The court assembly had just begun when a group of ministers who were usually very low-key and never submitted memorials suddenly started submitting them one after another. And there was only one reason for this: Jia Tisi of the Imperial City Guard was going to rebel and needed to be dealt with as soon as possible!
Ji Wuxin sat on the phoenix throne, listening expressionlessly as the ministers impeached Jia Daoshi in the court.
His eyes were stern, with a hint of murderous intent, as if he was truly angered by the news.
Just then, a civil official stepped forward and said, “Your Majesty, the remarks of Lord Fei, Lord Yi and other officials are quite absurd. As everyone knows, Jatis just blocked the southward advance of the Kushan Empire’s 500,000-strong allied army on behalf of the court. The garrison of the cliff city suffered heavy casualties. It is only natural to replenish troops at this time.”
"Moreover, Cliff City is a strategic location and a shield for our dynasty in the northwest. The stronger Jatis's power is, the more stable our dynasty will be!"
"Moreover, with the princess and the Prince of Zhenbei present, how could Jia Tisi possibly harbor rebellious intentions?"
This civil official was a protégé of the Left Chancellor Ruan Zhaoxiang, and usually received much care from Princess Taiping and Prince Zhenbei.
“Lord Wang, everyone knows that before entering the court, you were a staff member of the Prince of Zhenbei. What you just said was only because of the Prince of Zhenbei that you were biased towards Jia Daoshi. But you must understand that you are first and foremost His Majesty’s subject!”
Lord Fei immediately jumped out to refute.
"This is utterly absurd!" Lord Wang was so angry that his face turned ashen.
"What absurdity!" Lord Fei sneered. "I'm just stating the facts!"
Before Lord Wang could continue speaking, Lord Fei bowed to Ji Wuxin again, then said to Lord Wang, "Furthermore, as you just mentioned, Jia Daoshi is the husband of Princess Taiping, and is the imperial consort! If that's the case, how can he be so close to those scoundrels in the martial arts world! Have you all forgotten the original purpose of establishing the Imperial City Guard? Jia Daoshi's actions are blatant betrayal of his ancestors and faith. Such a dangerous person should be eliminated by our dynasty as soon as possible!"
After this conversation, Lord Fei was covered in sweat!
"Lord Fei, this is just sophistry..."
Lord Wang was certainly not one to back down, and he immediately began to refute each point one by one!
After Ruan Zhaoxiang returned to the court, his protégés and ministers gradually gained important positions!
Those who just attacked Jia Daoshi were all from the Right Chancellor's faction.
As mortal enemies, they certainly wouldn't let the Right Chancellor's faction succeed.
In any case, whatever you, the Right Chancellor, want to do, I simply won't let you get it done!
Ji Wuxin sat on the phoenix throne without saying a word.
She waited until the ministers were exhausted from arguing before turning to Ruan Zhaoxiang, who had remained silent, and asked, "Prime Minister Ruan, don't you have anything to say?"
Ruan Zhaoxiang remained silent for a moment before finally stepping forward, bowing, and saying, "Your Majesty, most of the information about Lord Jia is hearsay. In my opinion, Lord Jia is a member of Your Majesty's family, and the matter of Youzhou County is also Your Majesty's family matter. In the end, Your Majesty should make the decision."
Jia Daoshi was, after all, Princess Taiping's husband and the emperor's son-in-law. It would be perfectly accurate to say that he was a member of Ji Wuxin's family.
If that's the case, then Jia Daoshi was a member of the royal family.
This is a family matter for the emperor, and they only heard rumors without any substantial evidence. What right do these ministers have to interfere?
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuxin simply nodded.
Then, she looked at Wu Qingye, who was standing to the side and had not spoken either: "Ninth Prince, I have heard that you had many interactions with Jia Tisi when you were in Yilan County. I wonder what your opinion is on this matter?"
Since the Fifth Prince's defection, Wu Qingye had remained in the palace. After listening to Ji Wuxin's opinion, he bowed and said:
"Your Majesty, any traitor or rebel should be punished by everyone. If Chief Jia dares to betray the court, he too shall be sentenced to death!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Wuxin simply nodded and said nothing more.
However, the Right Chancellor and his group all smirked coldly at this moment.
Judging from Ji Wuxin's attitude, they believe that eliminating Jia Daoshi is a sure thing!
How could the ruler of a dynasty tolerate such a hidden danger?
……
Cliffside City.
City Lord's Mansion.
Jia Daoshi was of course unaware of what was happening in Kyoto.
After a rapid ride, Jia Daoshi held Shen Li tightly, both of them with expressions of satisfaction on their faces.
After an unknown amount of time, Jia Daoshi finally got off, held Shen Li's delicate body, and helped her tidy up her disheveled hair.
Shen Li felt weak all over and quietly leaned against Jia Daoshi's chest.
"My lord, can you speak now?"
Shen Li took a deep breath, her tone revealing a rare allure.
Jia Daoshi laughed and said, "This is just the beginning, we haven't had enough yet, how can it be so fast!"
"My lord, you're a scoundrel..."
Before Shen Li could say anything more, Jia Daoshi sealed her cherry-like lips with his own.
Then came the pressure points on his body, which were also used to kill him in one move!
Then, another exceptionally brutal hour passed.
Even with the physique of the Prince of Zhenbei, who had fought on the battlefield for many years, he couldn't hold on any longer!
After everything was over, all Shen Li wanted to do was sleep in bed for three days and three nights!
She really didn't want to move a single finger!
"My lord, you're so wicked!"
Shen Li was helpless; her throat was hoarse from shouting!
You can't blame her for that; even with a great voice, a whole morning of work will wear and tear!
Jia Daoshi was also quite helpless.
His Dragon Elephant Divine Skill is that powerful.
Moreover, he really wanted a child.
Surely we can't be born into this world only to have no descendants?
"Hahaha……"
As Jia Daoshi thought this to himself, he actually laughed.
The sense of accomplishment from having a beautiful woman like Shen Li bear his child is immense.
And the feeling just now was truly wonderful.
"Aren't you going to tell me?"
Shen Li saw Jia Daoshi grinning foolishly and couldn't help but reach out and pinch him.
Jia Daoshi then said, "Of course I'll tell you. There are no secrets between us, so we should be completely honest with each other!"
After saying that, he told Shen Li about his plans.
It's impossible for the person in the shadows to use Ji Wuxin's hand. On the contrary, it will give Ji Wuxin an excuse to get rid of the group of guys that weren't dealt with before.
Ji Wuxin's lifespan is probably nearing its end; it's time for a new ruler to ascend the throne.
Jia Daoshi felt that the eldest prince's condition was not very optimistic.
With Wu Ce's simple mind, it's clear he can't control the demons and monsters of Da Jing.
