Chapter 185 How should we deal with the Empress?

"Your Majesty, please take care of your health!" Seeing the sorrow in Emperor Kang Sheng's eyes, Eunuch Liu knelt down and pleaded.

Seeing that the Crown Prince's faction was about to react, Ruan Mumu quietly approached Emperor Kang Sheng and asked in a low voice, "Your Majesty, what do you think should be done with those who accompanied the Crown Prince into the palace today? The Crown Prince's loyalists will certainly not let this go, so you must make a decision quickly."

Now that the Crown Prince has met such an end, those people will definitely retaliate fiercely soon. We need to quickly think of a way to deal with what will happen next.

After hearing Ruan Mumu's words, Emperor Kang Sheng's previous sorrowful expression vanished, and his face returned to its usual calm.

He understood perfectly well that his identity at this moment was not only that of a father, but also that of a monarch. He had his responsibilities and could not tolerate anyone destroying anything in the palace.

If it's not the Crown Prince who dies tonight, then it's Emperor Kang Sheng who will die.

The thought that the Crown Prince would have such thoughts filled him with rage. He wondered who had bewitched his son to harbor such thoughts of patricide.

"Princess Xiyang, what are your thoughts?" Emperor Kang Sheng asked in a deep voice.

"If Your Majesty trusts me, then I hope Your Majesty will have someone cooperate with me. I will definitely quell this conflict as soon as possible," Ruan Mumu said anxiously to Emperor Kang Sheng, seeing that the people were about to descend into chaos.

After hearing Ruan Mumu's words, Emperor Kang Sheng hesitated, as it was inevitable for an emperor to have more to think about.

"Your Majesty, since Xu'er trusts Princess Xiyang so much, then she is a trustworthy person. Your Majesty should make a decision as soon as possible to avoid causing any more trouble," Consort Xiao advised softly from the side.

Emperor Kang Sheng, who had been hesitant, said directly after Consort Xiao's words: "Very well, I now grant you permission to lead your men to wipe out these traitors in one fell swoop."

After speaking, he lightly clapped his hands, and a masked man in black quickly appeared in front of them.

"Your subordinate greets Your Majesty," the man in black said respectfully, kneeling on one knee and clasping his hands in greeting.

"Long Ying, you will lead your men to cooperate with Princess Xiyang's operation. You must bring the traitors to justice without fail," Emperor Kang Sheng ordered.

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys." Long Ying replied immediately.

Long Ying turned to Ruan Mumu and said emotionlessly, "Please tell me what to do, Princess Xiyang."

"Lord Dragon Shadow, please arrange for people to be stationed throughout the palace in a while. I will spread the word, and you can then carefully observe and see if any opportunists try to escape during the chaos. If you find any, please arrest them."

Our people will be here soon, and then we will deal with those real traitors.

"Lord Longying, your most important duty is to protect the Emperor. If you have any spare capacity, then help to bring out those remaining villains," Ruan Mumu instructed methodically.

Although Ruan Mumu still looks like a little girl, the aura she exudes is as if she has been in charge for a long time, and now her words leave no one present with any room for doubt.

Long Ying didn't think there was anything wrong with Ruan Mumu's words and replied directly, "Yes, sir."

Ruan Mumu used a corner to block others' view, took out several megaphones from her space, and instructed several guards to hold the megaphones with the recording switch turned on. Then, holding a megaphone in her hand, she began to shout to the people gathered outside the Qin Zheng Hall: "The traitor is dead. Immediately put down your weapons and leave the palace. Pretend that today's events never happened."

If there are any stubborn resisters, kill them without mercy, and execute their entire family. You only have one chance; choosing the wrong path will lead to eternal damnation.

After Ruan Mumu finished speaking, she played the message on a loop through her megaphone, while simultaneously turning off the recording on the megaphone in the guard's hand and turning on the loop playback switch.

At first, no one realized what this thing was, that it could carry sound so far and repeat Ruan Mumu's words over and over again.

Those who had been forced to enter the palace on the orders of their generals immediately dropped their weapons and ran towards the palace gates after hearing the announcement.

They were just ordinary guards, serving in the palace. They had no idea that the Crown Prince was coming to force them to abdicate tonight.

Following the crown prince to force the emperor to abdicate is, to put it bluntly, treason and rebellion, and they don't have that many heads to chop off.

If we don't run now, when will we?

When the prince's loyalists first saw those fleeing for their lives, they brandished their weapons and killed some of those who were close to them, but their numbers were simply too small.

"Bang bang bang..." Gunshots rang out from afar, getting closer and closer to the Hall of Diligent Governance.

Ruan Mumu knew that Qiao Zuoyi and his group must have broken into the palace and come to support her.

"Girl, are you alright?" An anxious voice came from outside the door.

Accompanied by this urgent voice, a figure flashed into the Hall of Diligent Governance.

With a "thud," a figure was thrown to the ground.

Qiao Tinghao walked over to Ruan Mumu, checked her over, and only breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that she was not injured.

"Girl, I'm so glad you're alright. I was thinking of bringing her over earlier, but I was afraid it would ruin your plans," Qiao Tinghao said to Ruan Mumu.

"I'm fine. We need to hurry and deal with those die-hard supporters of the Crown Prince, otherwise there will be endless trouble later." After saying that, Ruan Mumu pulled Qiao Tinghao and ran out of the palace.

Upon closer inspection, those in the hall realized that the person bound hand and foot was the Empress. She was trying to make a sound, but her mouth was stuffed with a handkerchief.

Emperor Kang Sheng also recognized that this person was his empress. At this moment, she no longer had her usual elegance and nobility, only her increasingly disheveled makeup.

When the Empress saw Liu Shengrong lying outside the gate, she struggled to move towards the gate, but unfortunately she was unable to move at all.

She looked at Emperor Kang Sheng with pleading eyes, tears streaming down her face.

“Your Majesty, you see, my sister may not know anything. Why don’t you spare her?” Consort Xiao said to Emperor Kang Sheng, looking at the woman who often suppressed her.

Her tactic of retreating in order to advance made Emperor Kang Sheng feel that this woman was truly kind.

Emperor Kangsheng held Consort Xiao's hand and said, "Qian'er is truly tolerant and kind. Her son's current predicament must be partly her doing, and it's impossible to let her off the hook."

They thought they had been discreet in their attack on Xu'er, and that I had already shown them mercy. Now they dared to try and force me to abdicate; how could I possibly let them off again? What do you think should be done with the Empress, Qian'er?
