Chapter 97
: People are stolen and captured
Just when Wu Di and Zhongwu Hou and Liao Yanzhao talked about the plan in the side hall of the West Courtyard, the unlucky Prime Minister Qing was stopped by the King of Wu on the way back to the imperial city outside the pass.
"Prime Minister Qing, you are so brave. You dare to seize the imperial seal of the Marquis' Mansion. Are you trying to proclaim yourself an emperor?"
King Wu was wearing a brown four-clawed python robe. He got off the carriage and stood in front of Prime Minister Qing's carriage.
"King of Wu, don't swear by the bloody words. I was ordered by the new emperor to ask for the imperial seal outside the pass. What does it mean that I want to proclaim myself to be an emperor?"
Prime Minister Qing looked at King Wu disdainfully. He already held the power of the Aolai Kingdom, and he really didn't take the false name of King Wu seriously.
"Did I swear by someone? Let's check your carriage before talking." The King of Wu made a gesture to the servants beside him. After a while, the soldiers wearing King of Wu's military uniform stepped forward and forced Prime Minister Qing's men to be removed.
Prime Minister Qing regretted that when he was traveling, he wanted to travel lightly, but he didn't bring many people when he came out of the imperial city.
He didn't expect that he would meet the King of Wu halfway and be framed by the King of Wu in such a way.
"King of Wu, I am the prime minister of the current dynasty. If you don't have a warrant from Dali Temple, why should you seize and seize my personal belongings?"
Prime Minister Qing felt a little unwilling. He was a prestigious prime minister of a country and was humiliated by the falsely famous King of Wu here.
"Private belongings? Prime Minister Qing, your eyes seem to betray you. If it is really a personal belonging, what are you avoiding just now? What are you dodging?"
The King of Wu pressed forward step by step, and he stepped forward and directly lifted the box blocked behind Prime Minister Qing.
I saw that the box was full of tributes from various countries.
"Prime Minister Qing, should you explain to me where the things in your big boxes come from?"
Prime Minister Qing was also stunned. When he was in the Zhongwu Hou Mansion, these boxes were filled with gold, silver and jewelry he brought. How could the boxes be filled with the things in his hands?
Prime Minister Qing swallowed his saliva, looking a little flustered, "This is someone who framed the original image."
"Framed? He said it very well. Why didn't he frame me? You are the prime minister, and you are not in the court, so why did you run to the border to do something? Could it be that you want to collude with the enemy and treason?"
When the King of Wu said that Prime Minister Qing wanted to collude with the enemy and treason, Prime Minister Qing was frightened and paralyzed, and he was supported by his servant.
"If you want to add a crime, you have no words to worry about it. Maybe it is the true nature you framed. You have always been incompatible with the true nature in the court. You are not staying in your Wuzhou, and you are still appearing halfway after running to the border. If you have a ghost in your heart, you are afraid that it is you."
Although Prime Minister Qing didn't know why King Wu appeared in the border, he knew very well that if he fell into the hands of King Wu, he might find it difficult for him to escape in the future, and maybe even the Yang and the Qing clan would be.
However, in the current plan, Prime Minister Qing did not want to argue with the King of Wu in front of him, so he had to find a way to escape.
"Do you have any ghosts in your mind? We will give you a clear answer after checking the box later."
After saying that, the King of Wu ignored Prime Minister Qing's cry for justice. He asked his subordinates to check every box one by one.
"Prince, look at this!" A soldier wearing the Wu uniform came over and handed a square seal in front of the King of Wu.
The King of Wu took it from the soldiers and looked at the inscription. After confirming that it was the imperial seal of Aolai Kingdom, the King of Wu rebuked Prime Minister Qing with a cold face.
