Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Chapter 466 Don’t Pick Up 23

"Queen?" Su Tangtang was a little stunned. Her cousin actually became the queen.

How is it possible? When Su Tangtang learned that Su Lingruo was marrying the sickly prince, she felt a little pity in her heart.

The prince looks like he won't live long. Su Lingruo won't be the prince's consort for only a few days before the prince dies and becomes a widow, right?

Although Su Tangtang is just a small concubine, Xie Hengzhi has promised to promote her to a concubine. If worst comes to worst, she still has Xie Wenzhi.

Thinking of the handsome man holding the folding fan, Su Tangtang's heart beat faster, but soon she came to her senses.

Now that he could get Xie Hengzhi's promise, it was also because he wanted to deal with Xie Wenzhi and not let Xie Wenzhi have an easy time, which made him jealous and would treat him better.

No matter who of Xie Wenzhi or Xie Hengzhi ascends the throne, there will definitely be a place for her in the harem.

But man proposes, God disposes. When the late emperor met with an accident, the throne fell directly into the hands of the crown prince.

Although the prince is in poor health, it will take several years for him to die. Wouldn't Su Lingruo still be able to enjoy glory for a while?

Su Tangtang pursed her lips, her almond-shaped eyes staring blankly at the trees outside the window, not noticing Xie Hengzhi approaching.

"Sugar candy."

Su Tangtang came back to her senses and quickly responded, "Hengzhi."

"You are related to Ling Ruo by blood, so do you know where the Su family came from?"

Xie Hengzhi's face was gloomy. All the assassins he had sent out to kill Su Yun were killed, and no one survived.

He only learned the news today when he remembered to look for his subordinates.

There was no news and the subordinates were unsure until they saw the figures of the assassins around Su Yun.

Su Yun actually reported the matter to the police.

Although Su Yun knew that there might not be any results and he didn't know who he had offended, he still did it.

Xie Hengzhi hated them to death, they were all a bunch of useless assassins.

But it doesn’t matter. The people sent from Huaizhou should have succeeded, right?

But just now, he also received news that those useless people in Huaizhou were all dead.

Those were all the elites he sent out, and yet they were all killed!

What kind of capabilities does the Su family have?

"The Su family? They are merchants. Hengzhi, don't you know my background best?"

Su Tangtang was a little confused, and Xie Hengzhi still had a stern face, his eyes full of scrutiny.

But in the next second, a large number of royal guards rushed in and captured Xie Hengzhi.

"What are you doing?" Su Tangtang screamed, trying to stop the group of people.

"You have offended His Royal Highness the Third Prince. You are suspected of murdering a royal relative. His Majesty has sent us here to arrest you."

How dare the prince?

Before he could say anything, Xie Hengzhi was captured and thrown directly into the Sky Prison.

Su Tangtang was dumbfounded.

The court officials in the court were also dumbfounded.

It was thought that the newly appointed emperor was weak and would be easily fooled, but who would have thought that he would be so drastic and swift. In just a few days, he found a reason to put Xie Hengzhi, a young and strong man who could threaten the throne, in jail.

There are also parties in the court that support the third prince. After all, the current emperor might die at any time. If they secretly support Xie Hengzhi, they will also be able to serve the emperor in a few years.

When he saw that Xie Hengzhi was imprisoned, he also wrote a letter to the emperor, forcing Xie Chengyao to release Xie Hengzhi.

In the palace, Su Lingruo sat in the main seat, and Xie Chengyao sat next to her.

It’s not that there weren’t some unreasonable arguments among the court officials, but they were all dealt with by Xie Hengzhi.

Every time Su Lingruo spoke at the right time and carried out the policy of giving a sweet date after a beating.

After some time, some smart ministers realized that the emperor could not kill them all.

But every time the Queen spoke, their punishment was real.

The Queen was not someone you would mess with. So many people kept their mouths shut and watched Xie Chengyao elevate the Queen to a high position.

Later, all the court officials became obedient.

But it’s not necessarily the case today, as the court officials who supported the third prince are in trouble again.

"Your Majesty, even if you want to kill me, I have no complaints. However, the Third Prince is innocent. Please let him go!"

"Do you really think I dare not kill you?" Xie Chengyao spoke slowly. He wanted to make some small moves and pull Su Lingruo's sleeve, but she slapped him away.

Su Lingruo pinched Xie Chengyao's palm, signaling him to be more obedient.

The old minister suddenly stood up and rushed straight to the pillar of the hall.

Su Lingruo casually pulled out a bead from the hairpin and threw it at the old minister's feet.

With a loud bang, the old minister fell flat on his face.

"My beloved concubine is so kind. This red pillar is best dyed with blood."

Xie Hengzhi didn't want to stop the minister. Since he wanted to die, then let him die.

He was a cruel and violent tyrant, and his subjects dared not speak out. After all, Xie Chengyao was the emperor.

The old minister lay flat on the ground with a broken corner of his head.

"Your Majesty, the Third Prince is innocent..."

"In the 30th year of Yuanhe, Li Gua was riding his horse in the downtown area and knocked over an old man's wonton stall. His daughter Xiaohua came out to defend her grandfather, but was spotted by Li Gua, who forcibly insulted her and then killed her. The old man wanted to seek justice, but Lord Li kept it a secret."

Su Lingruo spoke again: "Master Li, your grandson is really bold and disregards the law."

Lord Li on the ground quickly said in a sharp voice: "I have already dealt with my grandson, and the Judicial Department has closed the case."

"Of course I know, so those foolish officials have been sent to prison."

Su Lingruo waved her sleeves, and someone brought Lord Li's grandson up.

"My dear ministers disregard the law of the king, officials protect each other, and no one responds to the grievances of the people. I will seek justice for them."

Su Lingruo opened her lips and said, "Behead!"

"Grandpa, grandpa, save me!"

Li Gua never thought that something that was over a few years ago could be brought up again.

Before he could finish his cry for help, his head was looked down by the secret guards and rolled down onto the throne room, right next to the old minister's head.

The blood was like a straight rain, splashing on the pillars of the hall and on the ministers nearby.

Everyone was stunned by this scene. They didn't expect that it would really happen in the hall, so they chopped Li Gua to death.

The old minister burst into tears; this was his most beloved grandson, and he was gone just like that.

"Take him away." Soon, the secret guards dragged Lord Li away, and the Li family's house was also ransacked.

Revenge, absolute revenge.

Lord Li is not afraid of death, but he loves his grandson dearly. This would be more painful than killing him. The Queen is really hitting the snake at its most vulnerable part.

It seems that the Empress and the Emperor are determined to deal with the Third Prince.

"My dear ministers, do you have anything else to say?"

The ministers below were shaking a little, a strong smell of blood was in their faces, and Li Gua's head was still on the ground.

The expression of the Queen Mother who gave this order did not change at all.

Everyone looked at Emperor Xie Chengyao again and found that Xie Chengyao was looking at Su Lingruo with a doting look.

For some reason, the ministers shuddered. No wonder Su Lingruo could become the empress. His Majesty was not a normal person. The empress looked gentle, but when it came to taking action, she was as ruthless as His Majesty.
