Quick Wear: The Law of Salvation of Cannon Fodder

Chapter 42: The Redemption of the Ancient Emperor 17

At this moment in the bedroom, Chu Ye Ze's eyes were as sharp as torches, staring at Xie Qi who was concentrating on writing in front of the imperial desk.

He was suspicious and couldn't help asking, "How can you be sure that he will confess all his crimes?"

Xie Qi's pen paused in the air for a moment, then he raised his head and met Chu Ye's deep eyes. After some careful consideration, he calmly explained his reason: "He cast a spell on us, so why can't I cast a spell on him?"

Chu Ye was very surprised by these words. His eyes were full of curiosity: "Do you know the art of poison?"

Xie Qi's lips curled up into a confident smile, his eyes revealing an indescribable pride: "Of course, do you think I'm a hidden talent?"

Chu Ye looked at Xie Qi's smiling eyes and said as if he was confused: "I think you must have cast a spell on me."

Xie Qi's heart tightened after hearing this, and he quickly clarified: "Aze, you are wrongly accusing me. How could I harm you?"

"No, you must have cast a spell on me, otherwise why would I be so obsessed with you?"

These words exploded in Xie Qi's heart like a bolt of lightning. He felt as if he too was controlled by some invisible force, and an indescribable emotion surged in his heart.

The pen in Xie Qi's hand slipped to the ground, then he slowly stood up, gently embraced the defenseless Chu Yeze in his arms, and then walked towards the bed.

"Wait... didn't you say you were going to write the next volume?!"

"Write it tomorrow..." Xie Qi's voice was low and magnetic, as if it had magic that made Chu Ye unable to resist.

"Wait a minute, I...I..." Chu Ye Ze's words came to an abrupt end with Xie Qi's affectionate kiss.

The curtains slowly fell, and the lights in the bedroom became particularly soft. They were alone, their heartbeats echoing in the quiet night sky, and the scent of deep affection filled the air.

Tonight will also be a sleepless night for them.

Time passed quickly, and the ministers still did not receive the emperor's order. Even the regent who was imprisoned was worried every day.

Chu Ye did not issue an edict simply because Xie Qi said he wanted to finish writing the second volume, which was an important step in changing the world's view of the emperor.

Only after Xie Qi finally finished writing did Chu Ye begin to issue the decree.

[I hereby declare to the world that the Regent's attempt to usurp the throne is a tyrannical act that cannot be tolerated. These individuals, wielding the scepter of power, attempt to change the world. Their ambitions are monstrous and their crimes are heinous. This is a violation of the will of Heaven and cannot be tolerated by the laws of this land.]

Now, Your Majesty has made a furious decision and has determined his guilt. You have decreed that at 3:30 PM one week from now, this usurper must be escorted outside the palace gates, his crime brought to justice, and his head beheaded in public.]

As soon as the notice was issued, everyone in the capital was shocked. They were indignant for the regent and all opposed the emperor's atrocities.

However, just as everyone was feeling sad for the Regent, someone suddenly said, "Oh my god! Go read the second volume of Mr. Ying Qi's new book!"

"Who still has the mood to read a storybook? Our regent is about to be killed by the tyrant!"

However, the man said, "Good kill! My heart is relieved, hahaha."

And those who read the second volume changed from not wanting to kill their regent to wanting to kill him for me, and it was a good killing.

This also made more people want to know what Mr. Ying Qi wrote when he fell to the ground. They didn't know what he wrote until they saw it.

Just because Xie Qi wrote this passage at the last chapter of the book.

I am not a sir, but a shadowy figure in the Emperor's inner circle. Initially, I, like everyone else, believed His Majesty to be a cruel and ruthless person. However, as I served His Majesty, I realized that this was not the case. These were all the evil deeds of the Regent. This deeply pains me. Therefore, I have decided to write a story about His Majesty. To prevent the Regent from discovering, I am writing this book under a different regime. I do not want the world to be deceived by the Regent and misunderstand His Majesty.

Moreover, what is written in my book are all the personal experiences of the current emperor of Chu. They are not fictional stories, but facts.

If you think my words are false, you can ask the officials in the court. After all, they all saw with their own eyes that the Regent used dog shit to force the emperor to abdicate.

At this time, the young men, ladies and wives who had read the second volume all asked about the ministers who had participated in the palace coup.

After Xue Zhan finished reading it, he couldn't wait to run to ask his father.

"Dad!! Is it true?" he asked anxiously, with anticipation glittering in his eyes.

"What's real or fake?"

"This is bullshit forcing the emperor to abdicate!"

Hearing this topic, the prime minister couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of tea and angrily scolded: "Don't ask too many questions, little kid!"

However, Xue Zhan was not frightened. Instead, he asked seriously, "Then tell me, is the Regent a traitor? Is the Emperor being wronged?"

Looking at his son's serious expression, he seemed to see his son grow up in an instant. He could only sigh and say, "It is true."

Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Xue Zhan couldn't hold back any longer and yelled, "Aha! I knew something must have happened to you when you came back so late that night!"

The prime minister, realizing he had been deceived, angrily shouted, "Get out!"

"You can't hit me..."

After Xue Zhan finished speaking, he ran out. He was going to tell his friends the truth.

While in prison, Chu Xiongran still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. He knew that the people were his last resort, and it would be worth the positive image he had created in front of everyone.

As the cage slowly started to move, ready to parade him, he was surprisingly calm. He held the iron bars of the cage tightly and looked forward with a firm gaze.

Gradually, the car moved forward, and the people in front of it surged like a tide. The crowd was so dense that it even blocked the road. Seeing this scene, Chu Xiongran couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

He revealed a grief-stricken expression and shouted, "People, please don't anger the Emperor because of me. If my death can bring peace of mind to His Majesty, then what do I have to fear for the sake of the world..."

However, the regent's heartfelt words, though passionate and inspiring, failed to touch the hearts of the people. Instead, what awaited him were rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves.

"It's already this late, and you still want to deceive us!"

"Smash it for me!"

"I want to throw back all the tears I shed for the little emperor!!"

"Traitor! Die!"

The people cursed and threw things. Chu Xiongran was completely confused. Why is this happening? Aren't you supposed to love and worship this king?!

Finally, at the critical moment, the escort officer stepped forward. He tried his best to stop the people's attack and stabilize the chaotic scene.

If it weren't for his timely intervention, Chu Xiongran might have been besieged by angry people and was in critical condition before he was beheaded in public.

At this moment, Chu Ye, who witnessed everything on the palace wall, suddenly felt relieved. He turned his head to look at Xie Qi beside him and held the other's hand tightly.

He is the emperor of Chu, and he will govern Chu together with Yingqi.

At three quarters past noon, Chu Xiongran was beheaded in public.

"Ding—the progress of the salvation mission is 100%. The mission is completed. Does the host choose to stay?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

"..."

And Xie Qi stayed in this world as he wished, accompanying Chu Ye Ze.

"Aze, call me Xie Qi from now on."

"Xie Qi?"

"That's my real name."

"Qi in Yingqi?"

"Yeah, so I'm happy that Aze gave me a name."
