Chapter 82 Don't sleep too soundly tonight



"Reward them with jerky."

This sentence completely stunned everyone in the court, including Qing Yixue.

This is somewhat inhumane.

This is practically demonic cultivation!

wrong!

Even demonic cultivators aren't born like this!

Wang Li's gaze toward Jun Lin also changed. He had originally thought that Jun Lin was Qing Yixue's man, but now he had doubts.

Can Qing Yixue really handle someone born like this?

He had his doubts.

If Junlin were to take his place, then in his eyes, everyone in the court would be nothing more than dried meat.

Seeing Jun Lin's calm smile, Wang Li couldn't help but shudder.

This man must die!

That's so vicious!

This person must not be allowed to remain in the court; he must be nipped in the bud as soon as possible.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Wang Li immediately said to Qing Yixue, "Your Majesty, this person is malicious and has the air of a demonic cultivator. Keeping him in the court is a real threat!"

Qing Yixue paused and glanced at Jun Lin.

But they found that Junlin still had a faint smile on his face, as if he didn't care about anything.

But Qing Yixue had a feeling in her heart.

It seemed as if if I dared to say a bad word about this guy, he would just quit and run away.

Although it's just a feeling.

But Qing Yixue felt it was better to play it safe.

He then said, “Although this method… well, it’s a bit against the natural order, it’s still a good method. As for the word ‘disaster’ that Minister Wang mentioned, it’s a bit of an exaggeration.”

Seeing this, Wang Li stopped talking.

Obviously.

Qing Yixue was determined to protect Junlin.

Jun Lin raised an eyebrow, his gaze towards Qing Yixue now showing more appreciation. Very good, she knows how to seize the moment.

But if even someone as abstract as herself has to be protected, this empress really doesn't have anyone she can rely on.

However, on the other hand...

Since they've gone to such lengths to protect me, wouldn't it be a disservice to them if I didn't deal with these old bastards?

Thinking this way.

Junlin's gaze fell on Wang Li's chair.

An idea immediately came to mind.

Therefore, Junlin stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I want to impeach the Prime Minister for harboring ambitions to usurp the throne!"

These words were spoken.

The court fell into a deathly silence once again.

A young man standing next to King's Landing couldn't help but want to complain when he saw this.

Not a buddy!

Why do you always say such surprising things?

Couldn't you have mentioned a lesser charge?

He was now terrified that if he were to be noticed by Junlin, he might be accused of treason.

Fortunately, it's alright.

If nothing unexpected happens, given what Junlin did today, he probably won't live to see the next day's court session.

Wang Li almost fell off the chair at that moment.

What the hell is that bastard up to now?

A desire to usurp the throne?

When the hell did he ever think about usurping the throne?!

Being in the imperial court, everyone naturally cares about their reputation and wants to be remembered for eternity.

This was especially true of Wang Li, who served as prime minister of the dynasty!

He also wanted to help Qing Yixue strengthen the Qingluan Empire and leave behind a lasting reputation for a harmonious relationship between ruler and subject, governing the world together.

He became a renowned prime minister throughout history!

but!

He wanted to be a renowned prime minister who could turn the tide for the Qingluan Empire during its time of crisis, not an appendage of the emperor.

Therefore, Qing Yixue cannot be a wise ruler!

But Junlin's sudden words completely stumped him.

If this isn't clarified...

What kind of legendary prime minister is he?

Wang Li felt like she was about to lose control of her facial expressions.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his anger.

Wang Li said, "What nonsense are you spouting now? I, Wang Li, have been loyal all my life, as clear as day and night. How could I possibly commit such a treasonous act!"

"No? Then why is everyone else standing while you're sitting?" Junlin asked, looking puzzled.

"Is there a problem with me sitting down?" Wang Li gritted his teeth in anger. What kind of trouble was this kid up to now?

Junlin explained, "Look, His Majesty is sitting, and you are sitting too. Doesn't that mean you're on equal footing with His Majesty? What right do you, a mere subject, have to sit on equal footing with His Majesty? And you still say you have no intention of treason? Everyone, do you think I'm right?"

Everyone in the court lowered their heads and remained silent upon hearing Jun Lin's words.

Even those who were dissatisfied with Wang Li were in the same boat at this moment.

They wouldn't be foolish enough to be the first to stick their neck out at this time; otherwise, once King's Landing falls, they'll be next.

Seeing that no one spoke, Junlin said smugly, "See, everyone has tacitly agreed."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked up, their eyes filled with shock as they gazed at Junlin.

You're a real beast!

So their silence means they're tacitly agreeing? Why the hell don't you say His Majesty is also tacitly agreeing?!

"Hmph!" Wang Li snorted angrily, "Ignorant brat, this was specially permitted by the late emperor, what's the problem?"

Junlin placed his hands in front of him. "The late emperor is the late emperor, and the current emperor is the current emperor. If you consider the late emperor as the current emperor, why don't you bring up the founding emperor of the Qingluan Empire?"

"???"

Wang Li was puzzled. What was all this talk about?

But before Wang Li could refute it.

Junlin then continued, "The late emperor allowed you to sit, but that doesn't mean the current emperor will allow you to sit."

"you!"

Wang Li pointed at Junlin, about to retort.
