Your Majesty has announced to the world that those who surrender from other nations will not be killed.
But when they went deep into the city and captured several people, the emperor wanted to execute them.
The Minister of State Affairs of Mobei repeatedly conspired with the previous emperor to murder the Crown Prince of Dazhao. However, when his plan failed and his scheme was exposed, he joined forces with others to force the previous emperor to commit suicide.
He also insulted the Crown Prince of Dazhao many times in the army. His crime was unforgivable and he insulted the country so much that he was immediately stripped of his hat and clothes and sentenced to being torn apart by five horses.
The Privy Councilor repeatedly advised against this, but he colluded with the traitors of Dazhao, amassed wealth, and spoke without restraint. He even threatened to kill the man of destiny and ordered him to be skinned and stuffed with straw.
The Minister of War had evil ambitions and conspired with other countries to kill the Crown Prince of Dazhao. His crimes were too numerous to list and he was sentenced to death by slow slicing.
The emperor only personally captured a city in Mobei and then wanted to kill everyone, leaving countless heads rolling.
But these people were the ones who surrendered voluntarily. Could it be that Emperor Da Zhao was not trustworthy?
Amidst the undercurrent, within half a day, someone wrote a letter to Emperor Mingxi.
Faced with thousands of people's criticism, the emperor was ruthless and had a cold face.
He was sentenced to thirty strokes of the cane in court, which made everyone feel intimidated and no one dared to speak.
Under the horrified gazes of the crowd, Emperor Mingxi stood up, hands behind his back, calm and composed, as if oblivious to the bloodshed that filled the room: "You treacherous minister, you murdered my son, you deserve death!"
He has never been a benevolent king. Why did he go back on his word and not kill the surrendered ministers?
I really thought I had some kind of immunity from death medal.
Haha, he is sitting on the dragon throne, and he is also the emperor.
Whatever he wants, it will be done!
Some were trembling with fear, as if treading on thin ice, yet they were loyal subjects, speaking earnestly: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, a wise and enlightened ruler, and I dare not speak a word. But the imperial decree was previously announced to the world, and now killing the surrendered ministers will not damage Your Majesty's reputation?"
His Majesty is extremely powerful, but he is not someone who vents his anger on others.
"I have a comprehensive plan, you can rest assured."
In the past, His Majesty would go crazy and kill people from time to time, but the hands of all the people he killed were not clean.
The minister stood in the tent and said no more.
The entire hall was filled with people at once, until the tender voice of a child was heard.
"Banban, shall I go find my father now?"
Everyone pricked up their ears, but could not hear what Wu Zhonghe said. However, they all hoped that the young prince would come here quickly.
I just wish they weren't the ones answering at this moment.
Fortunately, the heavens were kind to them. Soon, the curtain was lifted and a round head stretched out.
The little fat boy opened his big, bright black eyes and looked at the scene.
It was as if he was holding court in the Xuanzheng Hall, with the ministers holding their breath and the emperor standing with his hands behind his back.
Everyone lowered their heads and dared not look again.
Until the little prince came to His Majesty and asked: "Can I come in?"
The emperor was silent for a moment, then looked up at the distance between the tent door and this place and said, "Aren't you here already?"
The shameless little fat boy pretended not to hear and ignored the emperor.
He took out his small purse and distributed small black pills to each of his ministers.
Among all the ministers here, General Ye has spent the most time with Your Majesty and has the most experience.
After receiving the pill, he asked the little prince with some surprise, "Your Highness, what is this?"
Could it be the elixir that His Highness brought from the Heavenly Palace?
Has the little fairy flown back to heaven again?
The little fat boy said calmly, "This is a leg-stretching and eye-glaring pill."
"It really is a miracle cure. It smells so fragrant!"
"Thank you, Your Highness. I have done this old minister a great favor to receive this miraculous medicine."
"I will definitely build a shrine to enshrine this pill as a token of my gratitude to Your Highness for your love for me."
When the little fat boy saw someone treating the pill as a treasure, he hid it with tears and snot.
He immediately said, "Once you leave this tent, this pill will be useless." To prevent others from not believing him, the little fat boy pointed to the sky and said, "He told me so."
After hearing these words, the ministers were extremely grateful and knelt down to kowtow to His Majesty, the Crown Prince and the heavens.
He then raised his hand and swallowed the pill, which melted in his mouth.
A refreshing fragrance spread in my mouth, and my whole body suddenly felt light and refreshed.
"This is truly a rare and precious medicine. How could we, the ministers, deserve to be gifted with this treasure by Your Highness?"
"I wonder how much effort Your Highness put into obtaining this treasure."
"Yes, during the smallpox outbreak, His Highness was in a coma for seven days and lost a lot of weight."
Emperor Mingxi found it very funny to see everyone praising him.
Especially the one who said that the person has lost a lot of weight, isn’t this thin person me?
His fat son has never lost weight.
Seeing that someone still wanted to flatter him, the emperor raised his hand and said, "Please leave."
Only then did he send away his reluctant ministers and save his blushing child.
When the little fat boy saw that everyone had left, he immediately threw himself on Emperor Mingxi and said, "Father, Yu'er has made a great sacrifice for you!"
He raised his hand and drew a circle to show that it really took a lot of thought.
"Oh? Your Highness, what is the use of this pill?" The emperor had taken care of the child for several years and knew his nature well. Now that it was brought up, he was afraid that he would be greedy again.
"Well," the little fat boy rolled his eyes and shook his head, "This is a panacea. Didn't father hear about it from everyone?"
1002 twitched his lips, but No. 0 just smiled without saying anything.
What kind of panacea is this? It’s just the mint candy beans that the little fat boy eats. It has the effect of calming the mind, purifying the qi and removing fatigue.
He ate them like candy, because the main system contained some hidden items, and the fat guy would stuff a lot of them in his pocket after completing some tasks.
After confiscating 1002, he was afraid that he could not resist the little fat boy's coquettishness, so he gave it to No. 0 for safekeeping.
But once the fat baby started pestering 1002, 1002 would start doing his old job in a daze.
I steal, I steal!
Steal, steal, steal!
