"But so what?"
Princess Yu looked at the ministers and Mo Chen present, her smile becoming more and more wanton. "In the final analysis, you are now lambs to be slaughtered in my hands. If you can submit to me, I will allow you to continue to hold high positions and receive generous salaries. If not... then I will have no choice but to let you accompany the emperor to the west."
Everyone's expression suddenly changed.
"absurd!"
"You, a woman, want us to submit? Do you still want to ascend the throne?"
"Even if you really are Princess Yuchang, it's impossible. What's more, you are a fake. It's absolutely impossible for us to support you to take the throne..."
"That's right, even if we die, we will never surrender to a woman like you..."
Many ministers spoke angrily.
"Okay, since you all want to die, then let's die together. I just need some people who can really be of use!" Princess Yuchang said with a smile, and then raised her hand to signal.
The next moment.
The blade turned towards them.
At the beginning, everyone was still very tough.
It was not until several ministers on the periphery were actually stabbed to death on the spot that everyone's faces changed in horror.
"No, don't kill me! I surrender."
"I also surrender."
Seeing that the knife was about to stab them, some weaklings were so scared that they immediately knelt on the ground, begging for mercy with pale faces.
If there is one, there will be two.
Soon most of the people knelt down.
As for those who stayed behind, some were so scared that their legs went weak and they were still hesitating.
Some were more stubborn, pointing their fingers at the kneeling men and cursing, "How dare you, spineless softies, submit to her? Where is your backbone?"
"That's right, how can you submit to a traitor..."
Many of the ministers on their knees blushed with embarrassment, and some retorted, "If you want to die, don't drag us into this."
"That's right, we, we are just wise men who know the times..."
"It seems that you have made your choice. Then kill everyone who is still standing." Princess Yuchang said slowly at this time.
And as soon as these words came out.
Some ministers who were still hesitating suddenly knelt on the ground in fear.
In this way.
Less than one-fifth of the people were still standing.
Princess Yu Chang looked at this scene with disdain in her eyes, "I'll give you another chance, do you accept it? Or not?"
"We refuse to accept!"
"That's right, we don't accept it!"
"Kill us."
"You are a traitor. We will never obey you even if we die."
Princess Yu Chang looked at those stubborn ministers and didn't care. She waved her hand and said, "Kill them."
The words fell.
The soldier stabbed the standing minister directly.
The minister, with his neck stiff, resolutely closed his eyes, looking ready to die rather than surrender.
Mo Chen, who was watching from the side, looked a little ugly.
But he didn't stop it.
After all, if it weren’t for Princess Yuchang, the same thing would have happened to him now.
But he was unwilling to accept it.
Everything was clearly arranged and should have gone perfectly as planned, but for unknown reasons, more than half of his people rebelled. It felt like he was making things easier for others.
He was angry and annoyed.
But he also knew that now was not the time to show off his strength, he had to survive first, so while everyone's attention was on the ministers, he secretly retreated...
However, at this moment...
“Clang!”
A hidden weapon was thrown.
Blocked the soldiers' swords.
Mo Chen subconsciously looked in the direction where the hidden weapon was shot. Only then did he realize that a group of people in black robes had appeared at some point.
Mo Chen's face changed when he saw it.
It’s the Black Armor Army!
Mo Chen subconsciously quickened his pace back, but soon his back bumped into someone.
When he looked back, his pupils shrank sharply.
"Father, Father..."
The person who was supposed to be lying in bed had unexpectedly stood behind him. Furthermore, the look in his eyes and expression didn't look like someone who was seriously injured and dying at all!
At that moment, Mo Chen's head buzzed.
Because of his shout, everyone's attention turned to them, and when they saw Emperor Wenyuan, they were all shocked.
Especially those ministers who were kneeling on the ground.
"Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, are you alright?"
The ministers who were standing there waiting to die suddenly burst into tears when they saw Emperor Wenyuan wake up.
Princess Yuchang was also slightly stunned when she saw Emperor Wenyuan.
"Are you okay?"
Her people had clearly said that with an arrow in her chest, there was no way she could survive.
But the Emperor Wenyuan in front of me...
"What a courage!"
Emperor Wenyuan's majestic voice was filled with hoarseness and anger, and his gaze towards Princess Yuchang was filled with sinister intent: "Who are you? Where is Princess Yuchang? What have you done to her?"
Princess Yuchang reacted.
Seeing the strong voice coming out of Emperor Wenyuan's voice, she had roughly guessed a possibility. A sinister glint flashed in her eyes: "You are really calculating. You actually pulled this trick of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind."
Emperor Wenyuan stared at her coldly and asked again, "What did you do to Princess Yuchang?"
When the fake Princess Yu heard Emperor Wenyuan ask this question so stubbornly, she couldn't help but curl her lips and said, "Your Majesty, you've already heard that the real Princess Yu... died a long time ago."
Emperor Wenyuan looked grim and clenched his fists.
He had indeed heard it just now.
But because he heard it, he couldn't believe it anymore. The woman in front of him was actually a fake pretending to be his royal sister.
