The ancient martial arts master traveled through time
Chapter 25 Rebellion [3]
The commander of the imperial guards shouted, "Quickly release the emperor! If anything happens to the emperor, you will be unable to escape."
They had no idea how Ruan Xiaojiu had climbed up such a high palace wall.
The emperor was awakened by the voice of the commander of the Imperial Guards. Only then did he feel afraid. This man was not Ruan Xiaojiu, but a monster. If he provoked him, he would really kill him. He didn't want to die yet, and he didn't know if it was too late to beg for mercy.
The emperor, who had already determined that Ruan Xiaojiu was a monster, no longer had the courage to resist.
The emperor's face flushed red, and he could only point at the commander of the imperial guards, telling him to shut up, otherwise he would be dead if he angered this female monster.
The commander of the Imperial Guards saw the emperor pointing at him with a helpless expression on his face. He suddenly felt as if he understood what the emperor meant and immediately ordered, "Stand back. The emperor's comfort is important. Everyone, stand back."
I have to say that he is quite smart to be able to become the commander of the Royal Guards.
Seeing that these people were very sensible, Ruan Xiaojiu was in no mood to embarrass them and said, "Untie my grandfather."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone came forward to untie the ropes of the old general and took out the cloth gag from his mouth.
The old general was seriously injured and his body was shaking. He could barely stand firm against the palace wall.
Seeing that the old general was covered with wounds, Ruan Xiaojiu frowned and became a little annoyed. He couldn't help but increase the strength of his hands. The emperor suddenly had difficulty breathing and struggled instinctively, feeling that the god of death's scythe would take his life in the next moment.
"Xiaojiu, let him go," Ruan Guolong's weak voice came.
Suddenly, Ruan Xiaojiu's murderous aura was reduced by half, but her depressed mood was not soothed. She looked back at the old general, wondering why her grandfather didn't let her kill this hypocritical dog emperor.
Seeing Ruan Xiaojiu looking over, Ruan Guolong said again in a gentle tone, "Xiaojiu, don't kill him yet. After all, he is still the emperor."
The next moment, Ruan Xiaojiu retracted his hand, patted the emperor's face, and said, "Grandpa said that you are still the emperor and cannot be killed."
The coldness in her eyes made the emperor shudder.
Ruan Xiaojiu instinctively disliked Ruan Guolong's weak body. He turned to look at the emperor with his eyes slightly narrowed.
The emperor didn't know why he became smart this time. It was as if he understood Ruan Xiaojiu's meaning. He immediately ordered someone to bring a chair over for the old general to rest, and asked someone to invite the imperial physician to come and see the old general's injuries.
Seeing that the emperor was so cooperative, Ruan Xiaojiu didn't make it too difficult. He turned around and sat casually on the palace wall.
The murderous intent dissipated, but the cold aura remained, and no one here dared to act rashly.
The emperor had just escaped death and was lucky enough to be alive, so he began to let go of some things.
"Emperor, abdicate! Write a decree to make Ruan Jun'an the emperor."
Ruan Xiaojiu said lightly.
Before the emperor could say anything, a group of imperial guards began to look at each other in bewilderment. Is this Miss Ruan crazy to dare to ask the emperor to abdicate and give the country to others so bluntly?
The emperor naturally did not want to agree to such an unreasonable request. He turned to look at Ruan Guolong and asked boldly, "Old General, do you think so too? Do you want your grandson Ruan Jun'an to be the emperor?"
Ruan Xiaojiu did not interrupt the emperor's question. She also looked at the old man, to see what decision the emperor would make now that he had come this far.
Ruan Guolong lowered his head, as if in deep thought. No one on the palace wall spoke for a while, everyone was waiting for his answer.
Seeing Nguyen Quoc Long's attitude, the emperor felt much more at ease. He said that no matter who rebelled, Nguyen Quoc Long would not rebel, and he was not afraid of having his spine broken if he broke his oath.
Just as he finished feeling proud in his heart, he heard Ruan Guolong speak, and his voice came into the emperor's ears like the wind.
"Your Majesty, the late emperor and I conquered this land so that we could have a better life and not be oppressed. I don't care about the throne or power, otherwise I wouldn't have given the throne to the late emperor."
"Secondly, it is to allow the people to live a good life, free from war and conflict, in a stable and peaceful environment."
"But now, the Emperor cannot tolerate my Ruan family and has joined forces with outsiders to destroy the Ruan family. My son and daughter-in-law sacrificed their lives for Qingfeng, my youngest son is still in a coma, my grandson has crippled legs, and only my granddaughter, the elderly, the weak, the women and the children are left. May I ask, Your Majesty, do you think I should rebel? Do you think I shouldn't rebel?"
These words made everyone present fall into deep thought. The Imperial Guards were not fools. The emperor's actions were sometimes ill-considered and a bit extreme, but they were ministers and he was the king. Even if the emperor was wrong, he was still right, and what was right was even more right.
Now that the matter is laid out in the open, everyone knows that the emperor has lost the trust and loyalty of the old general.
After hearing these words, the emperor thought about what had happened in the past years and wondered if he was really wrong or if he had gone too far.
The emperor was dejected. He was powerless to resist and his strength did not allow him to do so, so he could only save his life.
The emperor looked at Ruan Xiaojiu and said, "I can abdicate, but, he pointed to his sons and ministers who were tied up below, and said, 'You must release them too. Don't kill them anymore. They are just ministers and have done nothing wrong.'"
If he used the throne to save those ministers at this time, those people would definitely be grateful to him and more loyal to him, so they would oppose Ruan Jun'an becoming emperor. Then he could conquer them one by one, and the throne would still be his in the end.
It has to be said that the emperor was still holding on to a lucky mentality at this time, and was trying to flatter himself before stepping down to leave a way out for himself.
Who is Ruan Xiaojiu? He can see through the emperor's little tricks. However, why not let things go smoothly first?
Ruan Xiaojiu smiled wickedly, "Okay." He turned and nodded to Ruan Jun'an, who immediately ordered the release of the person after receiving the order.
Once the ministers and princes were released, their families all breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't know what Ruan Xiaojiu had said to the emperor on the palace wall, and thought it was the emperor who ordered them to be released. They said how could the emperor ignore them and allow the Ruan family to kill them. With the emperor's backing, they began to speak without restraint. Some of them who were usually arrogant even shouted arrogantly that they wanted to avenge Prince Rong's family.
Ruan Jun'an was also a veteran of the battlefield, so he didn't take this little incident seriously. He smiled contemptuously, his eyes revealing a coldness that made him undisguised as he said, "Revenge? Think about it carefully. You've finally saved your life, are you sure you don't want to cherish it?"
Ruan Jun'an's words instantly made some ministers' hair stand on end. Yes! His family had just saved their lives, and now was not the time to fall out. Everything would be decided by the emperor. Thinking of this, he quietly left with his family.
But there were always some princes who were not afraid of death. They thought they were of noble status, and even when they left, they did not forget to make a few harsh remarks: "You have openly provoked the royal family like this, and brought so many Ruan family soldiers to force the emperor to abdicate. The emperor will not let it go like this. You can expect your entire clan to be exterminated!"
Ruan Jun'an looked over and said, "If you keep on talking, I'll chop you up and destroy your whole family."
Things have come to this point, and Ruan Jun'an has made up his mind. He will not look around and will just kill anyone who doesn't obey.
