Chapter 123: Clear the Court and Slay the Concubine



A group of loyal ministers and generals knelt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, I beg you to revoke your order."

At this time, Ruan Changtian had not spoken yet. The beauty behind the screen, wearing a veil, walked over with graceful steps and leaned lazily on Ruan Changtian.

"Take back your fame? You are forcing the emperor like this, which makes it seem that in your eyes, Xu Wenzhen's life is more important than the emperor's orders."

The lazy and gentle voice echoed in the hall, and some perceptive ministers shut their mouths. After all, the emperor was so incompetent that he brought his concubines to attend court.

It can be seen from this that if the words of this beauty were refuted, Ruan Changtian would certainly be furious. All the civil and military officials present had elderly parents and young children to take care of, so they had to tighten their heads and black hats to their belts, for fear of saying something wrong and making Ruan Changtian unhappy.

Ruan Changtian laughed heartily and hugged Lady Zhen tightly in his arms, "You are the beauty who pleases me the most."

Han Haiyang watched this scene silently. He wanted to remind the ministers kneeling on the ground not to say too much, but he was afraid that the war would be brought to himself and his family would be innocently implicated, so he could only lower his head and try to reduce his presence as much as possible.

At this time, there were a few stubborn old ministers who thought they were the veterans of two dynasties. For the sake of the country and the people, they had to keep Xu Wenzhen and kill the evil concubine.

"Your Majesty, Xu Shaoqing is a loyal and capable general rarely seen in a century. He is also speaking out for the stability of your kingdom in the name of the millions of ordinary people. I beg Your Majesty to revoke your decision."

After saying this, the moment Elder Fang saw Lady Zhen, his eyes were filled with disgust and anger, "Your Majesty, you must not be bewitched by this evil concubine. It was Daji who brought disaster to the country and its people, leading to the destruction of our nation. I dare to offer this advice, and hope Your Majesty will not repeat the mistakes of King Zhou and abandon the century-old foundation laid by the previous emperors of Daqi."

Elder Fang spoke every word with tears in his eyes, and a large number of loyal ministers and generals knelt on the ground, determined to purge the emperor's side and kill the evil concubine.

"Your Majesty, they all think I am a demon concubine and want to kill me. I just feel so much pain in my heart."

After saying that, a green light flashed in Mu Zhen's eyes, and Ruan Changtian instantly became furious.

How can my beloved concubine allow others to interfere? Come and arrest them all and punish them with burning and branding."

Ruan Changtian walked down from the dragon throne holding Mu Zhen in his arms, his eyes grim, "Since you all compare my beloved concubine to Daji of the Zhou Dynasty, why don't I follow the example of King Zhou and become the overlord of this world."

"Your Majesty, don't believe the words of the evil concubine. If you insist on following King Zhou, then our Great Qi Kingdom will perish."

Ruan Changtian raised a sneer at the corner of his lips, "My Great Qi kingdom will be forever stable, King Zhou is no match for me, Great Qi will never perish, hahahahahahaha".

"Come here, drag these stubborn people away and execute them immediately."

At this time, Elder Fang broke free from the guards, holding the imperial sword in his hand, "Your Majesty, this is the imperial sword bestowed by Emperor Taizu. Seeing it is like seeing the late emperor. If you still persist in your wrongdoing, I will have no choice but to kill this evil concubine in the hall for the sake of the late emperor."

"To see the imperial sword is like seeing the ancestor emperor in person."

In an instant, a group of people knelt down in the court again, but Han Haiyang remained unmoved and stood aside with his head down.

Several colleagues who were on good terms with Han Haiyang could not help but secretly pull at the corner of Han Haiyang's clothes, signaling him to kneel down and salute, but Han Haiyang remained unmoved.

As smart as he was, Han Haiyang had long known that Ruan Changtian was incompetent. How could he listen to honest advice from such a confused king?

The Imperial Sword is indeed of great weight, but the person sitting on the dragon throne now is Ruan Changtian. If he values ​​this sword, he can naturally continue to offer honest advice, but if he does not take this sword seriously at all, then this sword is just a handful of scrap metal.

Mu Zhen looked at Elder Fang with a hint of excitement in her eyes, as if she could see the red beating heart through Elder Fang's chest. It must taste delicious.

Mu Zhen suppressed the ecstasy in her heart and quickly hid behind Ruan Changtian, "Your Majesty, I am so scared."

At this moment, because Mu Zhen dodged at a good time, even though Elder Fang had tried his best to avoid Ruan Changtian, the imperial sword did cut through Ruan Changtian's dragon robe.

"Your Majesty, this old minister is so vicious. Look, he even dared to tear your dragon robe. He has no respect for you at all."

Only then did Elder Fang realize how big a disaster he had caused. Even though his original intention was not to disrespect Ruan Changtian, he was the one who cut the emperor's dragon robe with his own hands.

"Your Majesty, I know that my sins are serious and I am willing to accept punishment"!

Elder Fang knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation, hoping that Ruan Changtian would not vent his anger on his family.

Hearing Mu Zhen's words, Ruan Changtian, who was already furious, now wanted to cut Boss Fang Yuan into pieces.

"Why should I follow your instructions? Come, execute the entire family of Elder Fang. If anyone dares to speak ill of my beloved concubine again, they will be punished with the same punishment."

Elder Fang knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously until his forehead was broken, leaving pools of blood.

"Your Majesty, please forgive my family for the sake of my assistance in raising you. My granddaughter-in-law is now pregnant. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy."

Mr. Fang has lived through two dynasties. In his early years, he worked tirelessly to assist Ruan Changtian, worked diligently and loved the people. He also repeatedly gave loyal advice to the late emperor, and was highly valued by the late emperor. Therefore, the late emperor handed the imperial sword of Emperor Taizu to him.

It was hoped that he would continue to offer honest advice in the future, so that his descendants would be restrained and work harder to care for the people. However, no one expected that the current court had already begun to rot from the root, and the culprit that led to the chaos and extravagance in the court was Ruan Changtian's inaction.

At this moment, the sword that allowed him to make thousands of words of advice had become his death warrant.

When she heard that there was a pregnant woman, Mu Zhen couldn't help but lick her lips with her tongue.

Unborn babies are the most tender and delicious to eat.

A delicate little hand wrapped around Ruan Changtian's arm, and Mu Zhen cast a captivating look at Ruan Changtian, "Your Majesty, I feel uncomfortable and I want him."

Ruan Changtian followed Mu Zhen's jade finger and looked at Elder Fang. He instantly understood what Mu Zhen meant. "Everything will be done as my beloved concubine says. Come, drag everyone else away for execution. Arrest Elder Fang and his entire family and hand them over to Lady Zhen for disposal."

Elder Fang's body no longer had any support, and he fell to the ground, then burst into laughter like crazy.

"The country is about to perish, the country is about to perish, Ruan Changtian, Mu Zhen, you will be punished, you will definitely be punished."

An early morning court session ended in such an absurd manner. Even when Han Haiyang returned home, he was still frightened by what had happened in the court today.
