Yu Xiaoyun looked towards the entrance of the hall with excitement and anticipation, and saw a huge python that was more than ten feet long slowly crawling towards the hall.
The ministers in the hall were so scared that they hid themselves, but their eyes could not help but keep looking around.
Yu Jinshu waved to the Snake King, who slowly crawled in and huddled at her feet, his body filling the entire hall.
Yu Xiaoyun was also afraid. He pulled two palace maids to stand in front of him and stared at the Snake King through the gap between the two palace maids' bodies.
The two palace maids were trembling with fear, but dared not say a word.
Yu Jinshu squatted down and stroked the snake king's head: "Snake King, why are you so haggard?"
Obviously, the fierce murderous look in the snake king's eyes was gone, and his entire body showed weakness and powerlessness.
The snake king lowered its head, whimpered twice, then lay on the ground and closed its eyes.
"Snake King, Snake King, what's wrong with you?"
Yu Xiaoyun looked carefully and found that the python's body was motionless. Could it be dead?
He became bolder, let go of the two palace maids, and slowly walked down the stairs. Seeing that the Snake King still did not move and Yu Jinshu was still shouting, he felt extremely disappointed.
The Snake King was his capital to unify the world. He finally waited for Yu Jinshu to come and gave her the most respectful appearance, but her Snake King died.
"Snake King, please don't scare me. Without you, how can I survive in this cruel imperial court? Without you, I will be like a useless person and can only be bullied by others. Snake King, please don't die!" Yu Jinshu cried sincerely, as if the Snake King was really dead.
Yu Xiaoyun walked up to the Snake King and looked at its motionless "corpse". He was furious and pointed at Yu Jinshu and cursed, "I have been waiting for you and the Snake King for days, and I have been waiting for you day and night. In the end, I only got a dead thing like this. Yu Jinshu, you did this on purpose! You killed the Snake King because you hold a grudge and you don't get along with me. You didn't want the Snake King to help me unify the world, so you deliberately murdered it."
A surge of anger rushed to Yu Xiaoyun's head, and he suddenly drew the sword from his waist and stabbed at Yu Jinshu.
Yu Jinshu was so frightened that he dodged backwards. Suddenly, the snake's body shook, and the snake king opened its eyes. Its eyes became extremely fierce, and it suddenly opened its bloody mouth and rushed towards Yu Xiaoyun.
Yu Xiaoyun's eyes went dark, and his head had already sunk into the snake's mouth. With a severe tearing pain, he was separated from his head and body like Luo Chenjiu and Feng Yishan.
This scene frightened the ministers and palace maids in the hall, and they all ran around in panic.
However, the snake king did not attack them, but shrank in front of Yu Jinshu's feet and lay obediently on the ground.
It seemed as if the bite that happened in the blink of an eye just now had never happened.
But Yu Xiaoyun's body was actually lying in the hall, looking extremely horrifying.
There was silence in the hall for a moment. Yu Jinshu stood up calmly, looked down at the Snake King, and then at the ministers and palace maids.
She shouted, "You saw it with your own eyes. It was the Emperor who wanted to kill me first, and then the Snake King killed him. I can't be blamed for the Emperor's death; it was all his own fault. The Snake King only attacks when I'm in danger. Luo Chenjiu and Feng Yishan were both killed by the Snake King when they were about to harm me. I'm sure you all know this. Why doesn't the Emperor know himself? He actually tried to kill me in front of the Snake King."
The ministers were all silent.
Yu Jinshu then shouted, "I returned to Nangan Kingdom with good intentions, but the Emperor actually wanted to kill me. I'm his younger sister! I have Yu family blood flowing through my veins. How could he be so heartless and hateful to me?"
An old minister who advocated a truce and rest with the people came out on his knees and kowtowed boldly to Yu Jinshu: "Princess, the emperor is dead, but the country cannot be without a ruler for a day."
Yu Jinshu waved her sleeves, her voice high and mighty. "What is your purpose? To enjoy yourself, to do as you please? The people of Nangan have suffered for so many years. As a daughter of the Yu family, I feel ashamed for them."
She pointed at the dead Yu Xiaoyun with red eyes, "This is the king you elected, the most talented among the Yu family's children. With such talent, he is selfish and disregards the livelihood and safety of the people?"
She pointed at the ministers and asked sternly, "I ask you, is there any heir in the Yu family who is worthy of the throne? Can he govern this country well and make it prosperous?"
The ministers looked at each other in confusion.
The Yu family's foundation has been established for more than a hundred years, but each generation is weaker than the previous one. Every one of them is like a termite in the granary, who only knows how to enjoy themselves and does not understand national affairs.
A minister also knelt and came out: "Princess, how about you becoming the emperor? I believe that you will be able to manage this country well and ensure that the people can live and work in peace and contentment."
Princess Rouhua's political achievements in Beiyue Kingdom are quite impressive, and what she said in the court just now was truly shocking.
Even women understand that the country needs to recuperate when its treasury is empty, but Yu Xiaoyun only wants to use the power of a woman to help him unify the world.
Some ministers could not accept a woman as emperor.
However, some ministers who had understood the situation also knelt and came out, kowtowed and said: "Emperor Princess, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day. Please ascend the throne and serve the people as the emperor."
“No…”
A voice came from outside the hall.
Yu Jinshu looked over and saw Feng Yu. He was alone, wearing casual clothes, and didn't even have a sword on his waist.
Feng Yu walked over to Yu Jinshu and took her hand. "She is the queen of Beiyue Kingdom. How can she be the emperor of Nangan Kingdom?"
The ministers had never seen the emperor of Beiyue Kingdom and did not recognize Feng Yu. They all looked at Feng Yu and the hand he was holding with Princess Rouhua with confusion.
