I rely on gossip to save the country
Chapter 168: King Xuan's Downfall
Emperor Mingde also sneered, looking at the now completely out of control King Xuan, he said coldly: "Why? Because you are too ambitious, because you are ruthless, father has long seen your wolfish ambitions, if you succeed to the throne, none of the brothers will survive, if you succeed to the throne, you will kill all the ministers who disobey you, if you succeed to the throne, you will definitely be an out-and-out tyrant, now you ask why father didn't let you succeed to the throne, why do you think it is?"
Emperor Mingde's questioning frightened all the civil and military officials. Yes, Prince Xuan was the best performer among the royal children. They were also wondering why the late emperor did not let Prince Xuan be the crown prince. So that's why. At this moment, they understood.
King Xuan had a dark face. He did not think what Emperor Mingde said was meaningful, so he retorted,
"If you don't have enough ambition, how can you be an emperor? If I don't act ruthlessly and eliminate you brothers, will you wait for them to usurp the throne in the future? If I don't kill the disobedient ministers, will I wait for them to come to me every day to cause trouble? I'm not as stupid as you!"
Until now, King Xuan still didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. The one who was wrong could only be the late emperor, who failed to judge people well. He was the one who was truly qualified to be an emperor.
All the civil and military officials were shocked. Fortunately, it was not King Xuan who succeeded to the throne, otherwise these old ministers would have no chance to survive. At this moment, they were glad that they had assisted the prince instead of King Xuan.
Xie Chuyue: [I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen such stupid people. I have seen people who are looking for death, but I have never seen people who are looking for death in such a hurry. Father is really stupid. Why waste time talking to such people? Why not just take him away and deal with him? It makes me upset. What he said is just bullshit. I finally understand what kind of twisted mentality the villain has.]
Emperor Mingde also felt that his daughter was right. Instead of listening to this guy barking, it would be better to suppress him.
"Someone bring Prince Xuan and all the people in Prince Xuan's palace to the prison and execute them on a chosen day. The people in the Minister of War's palace should also be executed for their crimes. The whole family should be executed, and all nine clans should be implicated."
At Emperor Mingde's command, the guards outside the Golden Palace rushed into the hall and took away Prince Xuan, the Minister of War and others.
Xie Chuyue: [The punishment is too light, the entire clan should be punished! ]
Civil and Military Officials: Isn't it nine clans? Where did the ten clans come from? Did this little troublemaker remember it wrong?
System: [There are not ten clans, but nine clans. Kill all nine clans! Where did these ten clans come from? ]
When Xie Chuyue heard the system's question, she patiently explained to the system: [This tenth clan is their friends.]
System: […………]Okay, he has nothing to say!
Civil and Military Officials: This is the first time they have heard of the extermination of ten clans. It seems that if these ten clans are included in the friends, more or less people in the whole city will die.
After all, friends of friends also have friends!
Then everyone's friends added together would be enough to massacre a city.
Moreover, the Minister of War is an official in the court, so he must have many friends.
Their Highness the Princess, if she kills all ten clans at once, isn't that like the King of Hell recruiting soldiers?
Emperor Mingde: …………
Xie Yunshen: His little sister is so interesting and what she said makes a lot of sense.
Xie Yunqi chuckled. If the ten clans were really exterminated, not to mention other things, all the civil and military officials in the court would have to die. The court would have to be completely replaced.
Xie Yunqing also held his forehead.
All the civil and military officials knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. We will follow you till death."
Emperor Mingde waved his hand, and all the civil and military officials stood up one after another, but they were still frightened.
Soon, King Xuan's crime came to an end.
Everyone looked at the emperor's gloomy face, no one dared to speak, and they were all trembling with fear.
Emperor Mingde glanced at him, suppressed his anger and said, "Does this dear minister have anything else to say?"
All the civil and military officials were thinking: Even if they really have something to report, they dare not come out and offend you at this time. If so, they will not know how they will die, so they choose to hold it in.
None of the civil and military officials intended to speak out, so Emperor Mingde arrested all the members of King Xuan's faction, exposed what they had done, and threw them all into jail.
Don’t ask where Emperor Mingde got those evidences from. Just ask where his little Yue’er sent them to him.
Just as everyone was waiting in fear to see who would be unlucky next, Xie Chuyue slowly raised her head and looked towards the roof.
Everyone looked up as well.
In the end, no matter how they looked, they found nothing. They even all gathered around Xie Chuyue, wanting to see what was above her head.
Even Emperor Mingde came to Xie Chuyue's side.
It was obvious that they still didn't see anything. Just when they were about to ask Xie Chuyue what she was looking at, they saw someone tilting his head back and sneezing loudly.
"Ah sneeze!"
The next second, everyone fell into speechlessness.
It was just a sneeze, but the little princess looked like she was sick, making them think something had happened!
Xie Chuyue looked at the people who gathered around him, with a puzzled look on his face, "Gentlemen, what are you doing?"
Emperor Mingde touched his nose awkwardly, then came to the rescue of the crowd: "They have been standing for too long, their legs are numb, I will let them move around."
All the civil and military officials nodded and quickly returned to their respective seats.
System: [Hahahahaha, I am dying of laughter! Host, your father lied to you. You just raised your head to sneeze, and they thought you saw something, so they all came to you to see, but found nothing. After you sneezed, you saw everyone surrounding you.]
After listening to the system's description, it was Xie Chuyue's turn to be embarrassed. She couldn't sneeze. Could she blame her? She could only look up hard.
Because of Xie Chuyue's incident, the tense mood of the civil and military officials relaxed a little and began to report what they wanted to report!
Here, Xie Chuyue and the system began to entertain themselves.
System: [Don't be embarrassed, chat about gossip to ease the embarrassment! ]
Xie Chuyue: [My head is dizzy, no gossip, I didn’t sleep all night last night, and now I’m so sleepy! ]
System: [Host, don't sleep. You don't have what I have. I'll tell you some gossip.]
Xie Chuyue: [I have a high sense of humour! ]
System: [Don't worry, the host will make sure you are satisfied. Actually, this gossip is about your second brother! ]
Hearing that it was Xie Yunqing's gossip, Xie Chuyue instantly perked up. She had thought that her second brother, who was as shrewd as a fox, had no strange past.
Xie Chuyue: [Tell me quickly, what gossip is there about my second brother? I am so curious, I didn’t expect that my second brother also has some gossip. ]
Xie Yunqing: Okay, okay, it's his turn, right? But he doesn't remember what he did?
Xie Yunshen looked at Xie Yunqing, the smile on his face almost unable to be suppressed. It was their fault for laughing at him before.
After leaving court, he went to mock his second brother.
