Chapter 272 Are the other three emperors drinking wine with cephalosporin?
Yuanruan: [Tong'er, please explain in detail why? ]
System: [Your brother originally didn't have much of a feeling towards the group of knights. But when Qin Fu and his group spread rumors that your brother had killed his father and brother to get to the top, a group of knights took the initiative to find Qin Fu and his group and took on the task of assassinating your brother, saying they wanted to uphold justice. Then Prime Minister Li's son died.]
Prime Minister Li lowered his head slightly and used chopsticks to cut the cake in half.
Yuan Ruan was almost stung by this reversal: [Ah? Prime Minister Li’s son died? Not here... Wait, Prime Minister Li’s other son died? ]
System: [Yes. The ranger who took the mission was not very smart. He got lost in the hunting ground when he went to assassinate your brother. At that time, Prime Minister Li's eldest son was hunting nearby. The ranger teamed up with a few of his accomplices to hold Prime Minister Li's son hostage and threatened him to lead the way. Prime Minister Li's eldest son would rather die than obey, and then he was killed by the ranger.]
Yuan Ruan took a deep breath; [How cruel! Is this the reason why my brother wiped out the wandering knights for the first time? ]
System: [Yes. Prime Minister Li also completely submitted to your brother because of your brother's grand move. It's a pity for the eldest son of the Li family. He is a person who is not like a sinister Li family member at all. In the Li family, he is the white moonlight in the hearts of all the sisters and brothers, and is a person who far exceeds his father! Your brother also thinks highly of him, which is really a pity. ]
Li Xiang's son looked at his father worriedly and found that his father's shoulders were not shaking, but he just kept his head down.
He breathed a sigh of relief, but soon he breathed a sigh of relief again because he saw a tear fall into the plate in front of his father.
When Li Xiang's son thought of his elder brother's cheerful appearance, he felt his eyes warm up and quickly lowered his head, not daring to let others see the traces in his eyes.
Yuan Ruan also sighed: [What a pity for such a brilliant and talented person. ]
System: [Yes. And the second time your brother wiped out some groups was because of the prince.]
The prince was stunned: I have no idea! When did it happen? !
The other court officials also looked confused.
Yuan Ruan: [Ah? Nephew? Was it also an assassination?]
System: [This is not an assassination. A few years ago, when your nephew first went out to investigate by pretending to be a wealthy businessman, a group of vagrants came up to him and asked for money. Your nephew refused, and these vagrants had bad intentions. Your brother was furious when he heard the news, and without your nephew knowing, he directly ordered the male mother to lead the troops to destroy the vagrant group's station. Because of these two incidents, and because some knights and assassins relied on their strong martial arts to assassinate wealthy businessmen and officials for money, your brother became more and more disgusted with vagrants and imposed heavy penalties. It is almost impossible for vagrants to survive in Daxia. They either die or go to Shu and Chen.]
When Yuan Ruan heard this, many melodramatic plots about national hatred and family feuds popped up in his mind.
She said: "Tong'er, is this true? My brother has a grudge against the gang of knights, and Tian Langjun is a type of knight. So, if Tian Langjun is not appeased, will Tian Langjun stir up trouble in Daxia as a knight?"
The emperor had a blank expression on his face and clenched his fists lightly.
When Prime Minister Li raised his head again, a gleam of disgust flashed in his eyes.
The system hesitated twice: [No. It is he who will be taken away by Qin Fu in the future, and be coerced and lured by Qin Fu to become a top assassin. Then he successfully assassinated the emperors of Shu, Chen, and Chu.]
emperor:!!!
Prince: !!!
The Li family father and son, who had no time to hide their disgust: !!!
Yuan Ruan was confused: [Ah? You are right. He ended up assassinating the emperors of the other three kingdoms? Not my brother?]
System: [No, Tian Langjun is a man who knows how to repay kindness. He received your kindness during the Spring Festival and Spring Rain, and he refused to assassinate your brother. Qin Fu had no choice. Later, Qin Fu contacted the rebels of the other three kingdoms and arranged for Tian Langjun to assassinate the emperors of the other three kingdoms in order to obtain their financial resources. Because there were many groups of knights, and Qin Fu was a leader of the Xia Mo lineage, with various coincidences, Qin Fu completed the feat of assassinating the three emperors.]
The emperor and his entourage fell silent for a moment.
This is good, isn't it?
What's the point of teaching and educating people? It's better to go out and learn the mentality of the other three kingdoms!
Yuan Ruan also expressed the thoughts of the emperor and his entourage at this moment.
Yuan Ruan hesitated for a while: […Tong'er, I suddenly feel that this trend is not so bad.]
System: [!!! Come on, Ah Ruan, these are ten points! Your new magical power will be here soon!]
Yuan Ruan started to nibble on the cake in her hand. She was too embarrassed to express the dark thoughts in her heart.
But seeing how excited the system was, she could only say awkwardly: [Tong'er, the emperors of other countries are gone. This... doesn't seem to have much impact on the fate of Daxia.]
System: [No, it has a huge impact! ]
Yuanruan lowered her head and ate the cake.
——I see. It has a great positive impact.
The system continued: [After the death of those emperors, Daxia's national fortune will decrease a little.]
emperor:!!!
Prince: !!!
Prime Minister Li almost choked on a mouthful of tea: !!!
Li Xiang's son, who was cutting the cake, trembled and the light green cake he had not tasted fell to the ground. He knew he should go to the kitchen to get a new one as soon as possible, but the temptation of the system's words was too great, and he was reluctant to leave!
Li Xiang's son pretended that he did not drop the cake and cut another piece first.
Yuanruan was also shocked by the system's words and forgot the existence of the pastries.
Yuan Ruan: [This is unreasonable! It is the emperor of another country who has died, so why is it that the fortune of Daxia has been damaged? ]
System: [Because the emperors of the other three kingdoms were all incompetent! ]
Crowd: !!!
The emperor felt that the system's words were biased. He had dealt with those emperors before, and in his opinion:
Emperor Chen: An ambitious man who wanted to expand abroad but lacked the strength. However, he was capable enough to be a king who maintained the status quo.
The Old Emperor of Chu: He was the one who built up the prosperity of Chu. He firmly adhered to the policy of making friends with distant countries and attacking nearby ones, and had always been eyeing Xia. He was a scheming and calculating guy.
The Old Emperor of Shu: A superstitious old pervert. Although he himself was incompetent, Shu had many talented officials and the old emperor was good at ruling by inaction, so Shu was thriving.
Yuan Ruan was surprised and asked: [If the emperors of these three countries were so stupid? Then why did Xia Kingdom suffer such a terrible defeat in the previous plot?]
