The old Taoist priest hurriedly took out a token from his arms and said, "Humph, old man, if I hadn't taken this order from you, I would have suffered a lot. Now I would be living a prosperous life in the world."
It won't be as miserable as it is now. Humph, I will drag you down with me even if I die!
"Your Majesty, this token was given to me by Minister Liu. Let me enter the palace with this token."
After saying this, the old Taoist priest smiled. His will to survive was extremely strong. "Your Majesty, I am just a Taoist priest among the common people. Please let me go."
"You are lying!"
"Minister Liu!"
"emperor……"
Emperor Wu of Xia looked at Minister Liu, and the man knelt down consciously.
At this moment, there was a sudden movement outside the door. A soldier presented a letter with a red label, saying, "Your Majesty, great joy."
Emperor Wu of Xia was startled. He opened the letter and was immediately overjoyed. He immediately called out to the eunuch beside him, "Read it out loud!"
The eunuch took the letter and read its contents, his voice almost rising with joy. "This letter is from Master Jiu Tian. It says that thanks to the Ninth Princess' blessing, a powerful talisman was successfully drawn on the talisman paper at the Jade Buddha Temple that day. The talisman successfully brought rain to the people. The rain ended the local plague, and wherever it rained, the plague was also lifted. Wherever the rain fell, anyone who fell on it would be instantly cured of the plague."
"The people in the disaster-stricken areas are all grateful to the Ninth Princess. The letter mentioned that the Ninth Princess is a blessing from heaven. She can protect our country from disasters and ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment."
After finishing the book, Wanwan felt a little sleepy. She yawned and prepared to go to sleep.
It seems Master Jiutian is indeed a trustworthy person. I'll try to give him some more talisman paper next time. I need to sleep quickly and grow taller and bigger. Then I'll be able to cultivate. Okay, I'm going to sleep now.
Emperor Wu of Xia looked at Wanwan, who fell asleep as soon as she was told to, in his arms. It seemed that this girl was truly a blessing to the country. As expected of his daughter, Emperor Wu of Xia, she was truly different from other girls.
"Did you hear that? The Ninth Princess is our lucky star."
"Yeah yeah."
The voices of people paying homage to the Ninth Princess were heard again in the court. These people finally understood a fact: a powerful person is not necessarily a Shura from hell, but perhaps a god from heaven.
"From now on, if anyone dares to say that the Ninth Princess is a demon, I will exterminate his entire clan."
Emperor Wu of Xia narrowed his eyes, a look of shock and danger on his face, "And Minister Liu..."
"Plotting to murder the royal heir and deceiving the emperor is a heinous crime that will lead to the extermination of nine generations of your clan." Emperor Wu of Xia looked at Minister Liu meaningfully, and saw that he was sweating profusely.
"Your Majesty, have mercy..."
"From today on, anyone who crosses the Ninth Princess will surely die! Be careful not to implicate your own family."
Emperor Wu of Xia finished speaking, and after he left with Concubine Xian and Wan Wan, he announced, "Take them away and hand them over to the Ministry of Justice for a joint trial by the three courts."
The reason why Emperor Wu of Xia chose to move against the Liu family at this time was entirely because he wanted to further remind these people that even if they had done many excessive things in the court, he could still tolerate it.
But if he touches his daughter, he will definitely not forgive him.
Of course, the Taoist priest who cheated on food and drink couldn't escape death either. Naturally, he was dealt with together.
The Liu family is finished this time, finally clearing a major obstacle. However, this doesn't eliminate the disaster that will come three years from now. Dad, you can't die. I need to cling to your thighs.
Emperor Wu of Xia rolled his eyes and said, Wanwan, we can actually finish what we want to say at once.
Otherwise, your father might not have died three years later, but might have been driven crazy by you until now...
"Come here, call the prince to the imperial study."
After giving a hasty order, Emperor Wu of Xia waited for Concubine Xian to feed Wanwan, and then he personally carried her out.
Inside the imperial study, the prince looked at his father with a puzzled expression.
Damn, after I finished paying my respects here, I have been standing there for about a cup of tea.
What did my father ask me to do?
"Father, is there something important that made you call me here?" the prince couldn't help but ask.
"No."
Emperor Wu of Xia reviewed the memorials without raising his head, holding Wanwan in his arms.
This girl has been sleeping all the time. She slept for an hour after drinking milk. I wanted to try them one by one to see if there would be any reaction from Wanwan.
Now it seems that after all, children need to grow tall and their development cannot be delayed.
"I won't bother you there..."
"Wait..."
Emperor Wu of Xia suddenly had an idea. "Come here and grind ink for me?"
"ah?"
The prince wants to kill himself with a lump of tofu. Isn't that what a eunuch would do? Did the emperor take the wrong medicine today?
"Not willing?"
"No, Father. I will be right here."
Being an emperor is so good. He dares not even fart when he hears an order. If only one day, he could sit in this position.
But, it’s coming soon, it should be soon…
He had already begun to fantasize about stepping on his father's feet, and that everything of his would be his and his position would be his own.
The prince spent an hour writing, and Emperor Wu of Xia wrote for an hour, but he still had no urge to stop. His hands began to tremble.
Emperor Wu of Xia gave him a disdainful look and said, "You only have this little ability, and you still want to be my heir?"
"Father, I... am fine." The prince pretended to be calm.
"It's so frustrating! If it were me, I wouldn't bother with this. It's just a crappy position of emperor, right? Whoever wants to do it can do it. Why is it so tiring? Haven't you seen your father sitting in the imperial study for two or three hours at a time? Prince, you've gone to great lengths to usurp the throne, but with your brains, how many days can you sit there?"
Emperor Wu of Xia stopped what he was doing and listened carefully to what Wanwan was thinking.
"Oh, my father's birthday is coming up, but there's a major calamity. Because of this incident, the court is unstable, and my father's status as emperor is in name only. He's been ill all day, and the Crown Prince has to take charge of government."
Hmm? Then what?
Emperor Wu of Xia was in a state of confusion. Wasn't his birthday only half a month away? Was he going to become a puppet emperor so soon?
[Alas, how can I help my father avoid this disaster?]
Wanwan began to get anxious. If her father stepped down, wouldn't she and her mother...
No, you have to hold your thighs tightly.
"Father, your birthday is in half a month. Will we still have a royal hunting trip as before?" the prince asked tentatively.
Emperor Wu of Xia raised his eyes, his sharp gaze seemed to pierce through the prince's heart.
Seeing something strange, the prince knelt down quickly and said, "Father, I am just asking."
