Chapter 1333 Full of Joy

h advanced ideas, An Xuetang wouldn't want her employees to waste so much energy on inefficient tasks.She drew several design sketches that day and, together with Ding Hua and the others, personally m...To catch common people And kill them without mercy

Everyone present changed color. It seemed this emperor was a bloodthirsty man at heart after all.

These Imperial Guards were shocked, they felt the emperor shouldn't act like this. But faced with the emperor still raging, none of them dared to say a word more.

After all, everyone knows that if they dare to contradict the emperor, they will meet the same fate as this eunuch who is dead on the ground.

Just as they gritted their teeth and unanimously replied "Yes," before they could even leave, Ye Er called out in a leisurely manner, "Wait a moment."

Everyone heard the abrupt sound and their hearts skipped a beat. They all turned to look at Ye Er, the owner of the voice.

The emperor, furious, turned his head to look at him. He wanted to berate him, but Ye Er spoke before he could:

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger. If it is as Your Majesty said, whoever dares to speak ill of others will be killed. Does Your Majesty wish for the capital city to run red with blood"

The emperor clenched his fist, furious beyond measure, and roared at Ye Er, "So what I am the Son of Heaven! Their lowly lives are mine to take. Who dares say otherwise"

"Your Majesty, please calm yourself first. I understand why you are angry, but Your Majesty should think carefully. Right now, the world is in chaos, and all the other countries are eyeing our Tianba Kingdom hungrily. If Your Majesty truly does this, it will surely provoke the hostility of the people. They might think that there's no hope either way and choose to fight for their lives. Then, if things truly escalate, we would face both internal and external threats. Has Your Majesty considered this consequence"

The emperor is not a fool, he knew at once that Ye Er was right. But could he swallow his pride now

Those commoners, they actually dared to insult him like that He is the Son of Heaven, their Lord!

They actually orchestrated such a reckless scheme against him. If we don't impose some punishment, won't they become even more unscrupulous

He has to do something!

Ye Er knew the Emperor was furious, and at this moment, he didn't give the Emperor a chance to speak. He continued:

"My lord, I understand you wish to make an example of this person. However, there are better ways to achieve your goal right now. Perhaps Your Majesty should calm down and listen to my suggestions"

To put it bluntly, the emperor isn't a mindless fool. Would he really dare to unleash a massacre on the people of the capital at this critical juncture

He wouldn't!

This river base was already precarious, with enemies on all sides. Unless the emperor wanted to hasten the destruction of Tianba Kingdom, he wouldn't dare to actually harm so many people.

All he needs right now is a stepping stone.

And this step, Ye Er gave.

As expected, after hearing Ye Er's words, the emperor appeared much calmer. He looked steadily at Ye Er and asked, "Ye Qing, have you thought of a solution"

"Your Majesty, the common people are saying that Cheng Ru'er was sent by imperial decree to find King Beijang. This 'fake imperial edict' is a capital offense. Therefore, when King Beijang discovered that Cheng Ru'er had committed such a grave error, he directly killed her. That is to say, Cheng Ru'er deserved her death."

And when the news of Cheng Ru'er's death reached the capital, the Cheng family shamelessly went to the Prince's Mansion of Beijang to make a scene. Later, they were defeated by the Prince's Mansion and even disfigured themselves, kneeling before the palace gates begging His Majesty to rule for them.

"But Your Majesty, you are a wise ruler. Cheng Ru'er forged an imperial edict, she deserved death and her entire clan should have been implicated. Your Majesty, remembering that Cheng Shilang has served for many years without any merit but with hardship, wanted to bury this matter and spare his family. But they were still unsatisfied, and even dared to bring the matter to the Prince's Mansion in Beijang."

"Who in this world doesn't know that King of the North Frontier is fighting to the death defending Tianba Nation's territory Yet, there are those who recklessly disturb the families of heroes. Your Majesty, being wise and just, will surely punish those ignorant fools."

"So, the Cheng family's request to see you went unanswered. Your Majesty, with your kind heart, intended to let them kneel for a while so they would know when to retreat, but who would have thought that they wouldn't acknowledge Your Majesty's grace at all They wept and made a scene outside the palace gates."

"Your Majesty, if you don't take action, you will chill the hearts of the heroes' families. To prevent the Cheng family from further slandering the King of Beijiang and disturbing the people of the Prince's Mansion, you have to be ruthless and send the entire Cheng family to hard labor."

Emperor: "!"

Listening to Ye Er's words, the emperor stared at him intently. I have to say, this kid's proposed solution is truly brilliant.

If Ye Er uses this line of reasoning, then his claim that he sent Cheng Ru'er with an imperial edict to find Mo Yun Jing falls apart. All blame would be placed on the deceased Cheng Ru'er.

And as long as he followed Ye Er's words, then everyone in Cheng Yongying's household would be killed today. He wouldn't have to worry about the Cheng family using today's events to threaten him.

It is worthwhile to sacrifice the lives of Cheng Yongying and his family to silence public opinion.

If this kind of person were to become an enemy, they would probably cause trouble.

But for now, he doesn't seem to be the Emperor's man.

But she couldn't be sure who he was.

After Ye Er finished speaking, the scene fell silent. Before the emperor made a statement, no one dared to make a sound for fear of bringing disaster upon themselves.

The emperor fell silent for a long while, his thoughts a mystery to all. Then, suddenly, he erupted in a wild, maniacal laugh.

"Great! Well said!"

The emperor's face completely shifted from gloomy to bright. He walked over to Ye Er and immediately patted him on the shoulder:

"Ye Qing is right, it all started with the Cheng family woman falsely claiming an imperial decree. I could have spared their entire family, dozens of lives, but who knew they would be so audacious, spreading rumors and besmirching my reputation. Since that's the case, I can no longer keep them."

“As soon as he finished speaking, his face turned cold. 'The Cheng family is utterly defiant, taking advantage of my leniency towards them time and again. Today they have gone too far, even daring to cause a scene at the Prince's Manor of the North Border. I cannot tolerate such insolence any longer.'”

"Someone, proclaim the imperial decree: The Cheng family has forged a royal edict and treasonously acted against Heaven. Immediately execute them, exterminating their entire clan, down to the ninth generation! Do not make any mistake!"

The Imperial Guard kneeling on the ground quickly replied, then got up to grab someone.

Cheng Yongying, kneeling outside, was still thinking about how to use the fact that more than a dozen female members of the Cheng family would have their beauty destroyed today to bargain with the emperor later.

To know that, if not for the emperor's secret decree, the women of the Cheng family would not have gone to the Beijiang Wangfu. Had they not gone to the Beijiang Wangfu, they would not have become this ghastly, neither living nor dead state.

But things have happened, and he won't say anything more. The women of the Cheng family can be replaced, but since they've already made a mistake, he has to learn to use their experience to gain the greatest benefit for himself.

He knelt there for several hours, of course not to ask his family for medicine. He had already seen their repulsive faces; such people were only fit to be commoners.

At this moment, seeing more than ten Imperial Guards rushing towards him, his eyes lit up. He thought the Emperor would finally summon him, filled with joy. all I hope is that the Princess allows Xúnluó to choose his own people and she won't interfere with how many he brings.Before they could even guess how long, the Princess fell silent after her words...
