Chapter 390 She has a good temper?
Emperor Beining was also a man of swift and decisive action. After hearing what the little girl said, he immediately ordered the punishment of those ministers based on the idea that it was better to kill the innocent than to let the guilty go. In an instant, half of the people in the hall were empty.
The little girl blinked and frowned as she looked at the half-empty hall. "This princess is not here to help you deal with the officials. This princess is here to collect a debt."
The old emperor choked and looked at Xiao Yulan in embarrassment: "Prince Regent, you also know that this compensation is not a small amount. Moreover, the first batch of compensation was robbed by bandits on the way. Now we are sending the second batch."
"Also, I did deliver this second batch of compensation as originally agreed, but something went wrong at the border. This was something I didn't anticipate. How about this: I execute all the officials responsible for escorting the compensation this time to give Da Zhou an explanation. Is that feasible?"
Xiao Yulan sneered, "Your Majesty Beining, I'm no fool if I can rise from War King to Regent. Do you believe what you're saying? Besides, the theft of the first batch of compensation was your responsibility, Beining. The problems with the second batch are also your fault."
"Whether you execute the officials or not is your business. We just want compensation."
The little girl nodded and said, "I can see clearly that this is not your fault, old emperor. You are dishonest."
Seeing that the old emperor wanted to refute, the little girl continued, "Old Emperor, don't you believe what I say? I never lie. If you don't believe me, I can still talk to you. Do you want to hear it, old emperor?"
Emperor Beining's face froze, and his torn look of wanting to listen but not wanting to listen made Concubine Zhang and Concubine Rou beside him nervous.
"Your Majesty, how about...this compensation be given to the Great Zhou? We in Beining don't have a prince right now, and we need time to recuperate. It's not appropriate to start a war again."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I also think what Sister Roufei said is right. I am pregnant now and just want Your Majesty to accompany me. If the two countries go to war... it would be unlucky."
The old emperor patted Concubine Zhang's hand and pondered her words: "But the treasury doesn't have that much right now... and there are war horses."
Bu Ruo snorted at the old emperor's stubborn expression. She was not as kind-hearted as the little girl, who always spoke with such powerful words.
"Emperor Beining was the offspring of your late emperor's fleeting affair while on tour. To put it bluntly, he was an illegitimate child. His mother wasn't a lady from a prominent family, not to mention a prostitute, and she wasn't even a courtesan."
"later……"
"I will compensate!" When the old emperor of Beining heard Bu Ruo's words, he wanted to rush down and cover her mouth.
Bu Ruo was right, he was indeed the late emperor's illegitimate son. However, when the late emperor knew about his existence, he felt that it was not only shameful for him to go to a brothel as an emperor, but also that he was shameful. So he told others that the daughter of a guilty minister had seduced him, but the child was innocent, so he took him back to the palace.
As for his mother... the late emperor said that she fell seriously ill and died on the way to the capital, but he knew in his heart that his mother was silenced. He was already five years old at the time and had memories.
But so what? In his eyes, as long as he could enter the palace and become a prince, it didn't matter if that lowly woman died.
But no one knew about this except himself and the late emperor. Those who brought him back at that time were also silenced. The regent princess took one look at him and started talking, and that little girl... It was really scary.
At this time, the wizard could no longer sit still and walked out from behind the curtain.
"Your Majesty."
The old emperor heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the wizard come out, as if he had regained his confidence: "Master Wizard, please take a seat."
"Prince Regent, I believe you have also heard that my Beining royal family has been worshipping wizards since the first generation. This is the wizard worshipped by our royal family in this generation."
The wizard sat there with an unfathomable look on his face, looking at the Bu Ruo family, and kept pinching his fingers, which made the old emperor and the ministers below even breathe slower.
After a long time, the old emperor spoke expectantly: "Master Wizard, how is it?"
If the wizard could point out the shortcomings of the Regent's family, even if he found a way to pay compensation, it would be considered a win-win situation. After all, from the beginning of this palace banquet to now, Beining has been embarrassed so much from top to bottom that there is almost nothing left to lose.
The wizard looked at the old emperor and said, "Your Majesty, you cannot say that."
Bu Ruo burst out laughing: "If you can't see it, then you can't see it. You can't say it..."
"It's okay, just tell me. I promise I won't be angry or retaliate against you. If you don't tell me... then I will tell you. Otherwise, I can let my daughter tell you."
The wizard's face froze, and he looked at Bu Ruo who continued to pinch his fingers, but after looking for a long time, there was still a fog. He looked harder... and then he vomited blood.
Bu Ruo looked at the wizard who was wiping his lips and pinched his fingers in a serious manner: "Well... This princess saw that you, the wizard, have been damaged in some way due to your witchcraft practice, and you will be childless for the rest of your life."
"Even if you have three wives outside and no children, there's no need to bother. You might as well eat more supplements instead of wasting time."
"Oh, and you don't need to look at me anymore. My family is not something you can look down upon. If you pinch my life with your broken finger a few more times, my life will be gone. Then there will be no wizards left in your Beining."
"By the way, remember to tell your master that I still have a score to settle with him. Tell him to come find me if he's still alive. If you wait for me to come find him in person... then I won't be as good-tempered as I am now."
Everyone: ???!!!!
She has a good temper? Who deposed Prime Minister Zhang's son? Who threw scalding hot tea in the faces of the Gu family mother and daughter? Who cut off that lady's tongue...
This temper... is really a little too good.
The wizard said nothing and looked at Bu Ruo in shock. She really knew everything. He would contact his master immediately after the palace banquet was over.
Otherwise, let alone leading the people of this entire continent to practice witchcraft and then bringing them back to the next plane, I'm afraid all of them will die here.
Seeing that the people who should be lost were lost and the compensations that should be paid were not paid, the old emperor could only end the palace banquet with a dull mood.
"The Prince Regent and Princess Regent must be tired. Why don't they stay in the palace today..."
"Okay, this is exactly what I'm thinking after a few drinks."
Did they drink a few too many cups? Everyone was stunned, staring blankly at the tea on Bu Ruo's table...
The old emperor was also choked when he heard Bu Ruo's words. He was just being polite according to the normal procedure. Shouldn't the other party politely refuse him to return to the inn or post house?
This family of plague gods is just... left like this?
