I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1403

Chapter 1403: Chapter 543: Wu Lie Appears! Is Chen Mo Dead?!

Dong—

As the bell rang, civil and military officials orderly crossed the Golden Water Bridge and entered Fengtian Gate.

Compared to usual, today’s atmosphere seemed particularly heavy. Even the two factions of the Empress and the Imperial Consort, who never got along, seemed to have lost the strength to belittle each other, all of them silent and looking grave.

Recently, too many changes had occurred in the Capital City.

Demon Clan invasion, noble families’ rebellion, Observatory collapse, Demon Suppression Department’s attack, Fengqiu Imperial Mausoleum’s destruction... shocking news came one after another!

And all these incidents conveyed a single signal—

The Great Yuan Dynasty has reached a moment of life and death!

Normally, these powerful ministers were embroiled in deep feuds to seize benefits, sparring and competing fiercely, but that was based on a stable court foundation.

Now, with the structure crumbling and the country no longer a country, the so-called factional fights have all become jokes!

When the fur is gone, where does the skin rest?

Everyone, harboring various thoughts, stepped heavily into the Golden Throne Hall.

"Long live the Emperor, long live, long live!"

"Long live His Highness, long live, long live!"

They knelt on the ground, bowing to the empty dragon throne on the high platform, as well as the bamboo curtains next to it.

"Rise."

The Empress’s calm voice rang out, showing no trace of emotion.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

The ministers all stood up.

Eunuch Jin cleared his throat and said, "Report matters if any, retreat if not..."

"I have matters to report!"

Before he could finish, a tall figure stepped out, it was the Minister of War, Yin Zhao.

He held the ivory ceremonial tablet with both hands, bowed and said: "Reporting to Your Highness, the Capital City has been tumultuous recently, causing panic across the court and the country. On behalf of the Six Ministries, I have three questions to ask Your Highness!"

Yan Peizhi, Feng Jinyu, and other Six Ministers heard this, their brows twitched.

Once again represented?

Without any prior discussion, what on earth is Mr. Yin doing?

Yet seeing the other Chief of Staff lowering their heads and silent, they could not discredit him publicly, and could only listen to him finish speaking.

"Speak." the Empress said.

"Firstly, Your Highness assigned Heavenly Qilin Guard Thousand Households Chen Mo to investigate the noble families’ rebellion case, how is the progress now? Is there any substantive evidence?"

"Secondly, I’ve heard the Fengqiu Imperial Mausoleum was destroyed, was it due to an earthquake or human intervention? Why not allow the Three Departments to interrogate the mausoleum officials?"

Yin Zhao spoke bluntly, though he said ’ask’, it was actually questioning, without any room for cushioning.

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

The Empress replied calmly: "Continue."

"As for the third question..."
