Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

I don’t know if it was intentional, but Bo Muxiang’s foot was stepping on Prince Rui’s right palm, and the broken palm had already become numb from the pain.

Prince Rui glanced at his right hand. This hand that once dominated the battlefield was probably now completely useless.

Bo Muxi half-knelt down and looked at him with a look of pity and hatred, which completely shattered Prince Rui's desire to survive.

He looked at Bo Muxi viciously and said in a hoarse voice: "Fourth brother Emperor, hehe, kill your brother..."

"Kill you?" Bo Muxi sneered, "Do I really need to stain my hands with your blood? Wasn't Prince Rui stabbed to death on the spot by the Imperial Guards when he was trying to assassinate me just now?"

"You...you...are so vicious!" Prince Rui's triangular eyes were instantly filled with despair and hatred.

"I am vicious? Haha, do you know why you lost so miserably?" Bo Muxi approached Prince Rui and said in a low voice, "Old Fifth, go and die without worry. I will not embarrass my sister-in-law and my nephews. After all, my sister-in-law is very righteous and took the initiative to report. I have always been clear about rewards and punishments."

"Ugh..." When Prince Rui heard that he was betrayed by his wife, he spat out blood several times.

"Haha, Lao Wu, you finally died at the hands of the woman you despised the most, really..."

After saying that, Bo Muxi ignored him and stood up, saying, "Pass on my order. In order to usurp the imperial power, Prince Rui and Prince Xiang secretly communicated with the enemy and leaked the military secrets of the State of Zhao. After being exposed, they failed to assassinate the emperor and were strangled on the spot by the Imperial Guards."

"Prince Rui and Prince Xiang are disloyal and unfilial, unkind and unjust. In accordance with the ancestral rituals, I will remove them from the Bo family genealogy. They are not allowed to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, nor are they allowed to enter the ancestral temple." Bo Muxi didn't even look at the two of them.

Upon hearing this, the Prince of Xiang was shocked and quickly knelt down to beg for mercy: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Please don't remove me from the family tree, please..."

Bo Muxi ignored him and continued, "All the trusted servants of Prince Rui and Prince Xiang will be sent to the frontier to be given to the soldiers as slaves. Anyone who forms a clique with the two will be beheaded in the street, and all the male members of their families will be stabbed to death, and all the females will be sent to the frontier, and will not be allowed to enter the capital for generations."

"All the descendants of the Prince of Xiang have been demoted to commoners and exiled to a cold and bitter land. As for the descendants of the Prince of Rui County... I think that the Princess of Rui County understands the greater good and will no longer pursue the guilt of her descendants. The rest of the concubines have all been exiled, leaving only the Princess and her descendants. I will ensure that they and their children enjoy a life of glory and prosperity."

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I was coerced by Prince Rui! Your Majesty, please spare my family!" Until then, Prince Xiang was still kneeling on the ground, begging bitterly.

Bo Muxi waved his hands in disdain and said, "Drag them both away, put them in the secret cell, and keep them under strict guard. I must let them enjoy the rest of their time."

At the emperor's command, the secret guards came forward, knocked the two men unconscious, and dragged them away in an instant.

The rebellious Qin Shipeng was also dragged out by the Imperial Guards and handed over to the Ministry of Justice for punishment.

Bo Muxi turned around and looked coldly at Prime Minister Hu who was slumped on the ground: "Hu Hongfei, I really can't understand why you could betray me? Do you think I treated you unfairly?"

Hu Hongfei had already burst into tears. He took a deep breath, knelt straight, and cried, "Your Majesty, I deserve to die... Prince Rui set me up, and I was greedy for a moment, so I embezzled the money for disaster relief. It was just a small hole at first..."

"But the hole is getting bigger and bigger until it is difficult to clean up... I can only keep making up for one mistake with another... Your Majesty, I deserve to die, but my family is innocent! Your Majesty..." Hu Hongfei kowtowed while crying.

"Hu Hongfei..." The emperor sighed, "There are no innocent people in this world. There must be something hateful about pitiful people..."

"Hu Hongfei has betrayed my kindness and colluded with Prince Rui to rebel. Considering his loyalty to me, I grant him death to keep his body intact. As for the male members of the Hu family, all of them will be executed. All the women will be exiled to a bitter and cold place as slaves." Bo Muxi said.

"Your Majesty, I accept your order..." Hu Hongfei kowtowed heavily, and after a long while he cried and begged, "Your Majesty, can you please consider my request for the sake of our relationship?"

"I beg Your Majesty to spare my daughter Hu Xuanqing's life... She was forced into this death by my incompetent father... I do not ask for an intact body, Your Majesty, please chop me in half in the street. As long as you can spare Qing'er's life, I can also be subjected to the death penalty of slow slicing..."

By this time, Hu Hongfei had already burst into tears. He shouldn't have pushed his daughter into the fire pit with his own hands just to save the Hu family.

Bo Muxi closed his eyes and thought deeply. Thinking of Hu Cairen and Qin Man's identical faces, he sighed and said, "I can only promise you that I will not kill her..."

Hu Hongfei heaved a long sigh and kowtowed, saying, "I thank the Lord for his grace. I can only repay the emperor in my next life..."

Shen Zhiyao shook her head secretly. With the current situation of the Hu family, Mrs. Hu would immediately become a broken drum that everyone would chase and beat. Could it be considered a good thing to be alive?

Hu Hongfei was also dragged away by the Imperial Guards. The initial purge was over and peace finally returned to the palace.

"General Shen Li has made great contributions in saving the emperor during this rebellion. I hereby decree that General Shen Li be awarded the title of 'Loyal and Brave Marquis'. The Shen family can inherit the title of marquis for three generations." Bo Muxi said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Shen Li and Shen Xun hurriedly knelt down to express their gratitude.

"Marquis Zhongyong and the young general, get up quickly." Bo Muxi said, and helped Shen Li up with his own hands.

"Marquis Zhongyong has been working hard these days. I will let Jin Shuyi chat with you about some family matters first, and then you can go back home to have a good rest. How about that?" Bo Muxi asked with a smile.

"I thank the emperor for his grace. However, I used a trick to get out this time, which was risky. I think the Jinfeng Kingdom will soon get the news. I must rush back to the border garrison camp as soon as possible to prevent any accidents." Shen Li clasped his fists.

In fact, Bo Muxi knew better than anyone the serious situation on the border, and his proposal just now was nothing more than a polite remark made by an emperor to show his sympathy for his subordinates.

"General Shen is devoted to the country. This time when he returned to Dadu, he didn't even enter the Shen Mansion... I owe the general too much..." Bo Muxi looked at the upright general in heavy armor in front of him and felt warm in his heart.

"Your Majesty's grace is always in my heart, and your great strategy is something I dare not neglect. Now that the internal troubles have been resolved, I will return to the frontier this time and prepare to expand the territory and attack the Golden Wind Kingdom. Your Majesty only needs to wait for my victory report."

Shen Li is quite confident about conquering the Kingdom of Jinfeng.

"Good! Good!" Bo Muxi patted Shen Li on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I will wait for the general's victory report!"

Shen Zhiyao also strongly agrees with his father leading troops to attack the Jinfeng Kingdom. Only by using Shen Li, this piece of rare steel, can Bo Muxi feel truly at ease.

Shen Zhiyao smiled on her face, but she was thinking in her heart that when the war was almost over, she would persuade her father to hand over his military power as soon as possible and go home to be an idle marquis who did not care about anything.

Thinking of the talented Hu who killed Sister Lu, Shen Zhiyao sneered in her heart. The time of reckoning for her has finally come...
