Chapter 65

In the middle of the hall, on a domineering and exposed Golden Dragon chair, a 60 year old man silently looked at the ministers below. His eyes flashed and said faintly: "tell me all, a senior official of the government was killed in his jurisdiction. What do you think?"

"Tell the holy master that situ, the leader of Huai'an mansion, died in battle on duty when he was suppressing night demons and forest monsters. He was loyal to the country. He was a loyal minister and good general, and should be commended by the whole country."

"I seconded!"

"I seconded!"

……

All the ministers agreed with each other and deeply agreed with this kind of peaceful practice. Even if there was any court struggle, they would not offend each other.

With a cold smile, the Emperor didn't know the little 99 in their heart, but he didn't say it.

"Your majesty!"

Suddenly, a loud drink sounded, but a heavy step approached one after another. A general nine feet long, with white temples and heavy armor, with a long sword at his waist, walked up to the court and shouted, "the officials of the hall and the government were killed in their own jurisdiction, which is a provocation to the court. Your Majesty must strictly investigate. How can they be so hasty?"

General white tiger, Murong mountain?

Seeing this tall figure, all the ministers present couldn't help looking tight.

This person is the leader of the white tiger army of the Fenglei Empire, one of the kings of the fifth World War, one of the five first-class generals of the Empire, the head of the Murong aristocratic family, Murong mountain.

Millions of elite soldiers guard the northwest boundary of the Empire and are unstoppable.

He made great contributions to the Empire, so he was chartered not to go to the court on weekdays, not to kneel down, and his power was almost equal to that of the emperor.

But even so, there is no one with weapons to the court. It is regarded as the crime of regicide.

But today, he came with a sword. How arrogant.

When all the courtiers saw this, their eyes booed and they didn't dare to speak. Only an old man of 70 or so glanced at him and said, "general Murong is so powerful. You just said that a government leader died and someone wanted to rebel. But what do you mean when you enter the court today with a blade? Do you want to threaten your majesty with a sword?"

"Prime Minister Wang, I'm a rough man. Don't give me a hat like you literati."

Xiang smiled and turned his mouth. Murong mountain didn't go to see him. He just took off the long sword at his waist and presented it with his hands. He said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, I've led the army all my life and fought in the battlefield. My blade has never left my body. If your majesty thinks it's wrong for the old minister to lead the army to the temple today, please use this long sword to cut off my head as an example."

Hiss!

As soon as he said this, all the courtiers couldn't help taking a breath.

Murong mountain, you are brave. Aren't you forcing the palace?

With the millions of elite soldiers in the northwest in your hands, who dares to cut you down? The emperor dare not.

Otherwise, if millions of elite soldiers revolt, the Empire will be directly destroyed. You know this and have no fear. By doing so, you are bullying your majesty.

Everyone knows this, but they dare not say it.

The emperor hissed in his eyes, forced himself to suppress his anger, waved his hand indifferently, and said with a smile: "Aiqing is serious. Aiqing is a veteran of three dynasties and has made great achievements for thousands of years. How can I blame Aiqing for such a small matter? What's the difference with fainting the king? Hehe... Well, I'll let Aiqing lead the troops to the palace."

"Thank you, your majesty!"

With a faint nod, Murong mountain looked provocatively at the prime minister.

The Prime Minister remained silent and ignored.

Murong mountain smiled and hugged the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, situ is being killed in his own jurisdiction. It's really strange. Please allow me to send someone to find out the truth. We must not let the pillars of the court die unjustly."

"Your Majesty, there is situ Zheng's deputy in this matter. Deputy general he personally reported that he was killed by the demon lord of the night demon forest. The fact is very clear. I don't think general Murong needs to make trouble."

As soon as he said this, the prime minister immediately stood up and said.

His face could not stop sinking. Murong mountain was furious: "it's not your people who dare to die, is it?"

"No matter who died, that's it. Don't forget, according to the description of the deputy general, the Demon Lord is a legendary human monster. If you provoke such a terrible existence, the whole empire will be turbulent. It's better to calm down!"

"Human monsters? That's just a legend. Who has ever seen an adult monster in the world? Deputy general he has low strength and can be forgiven for being cheated. I think that human monsters are people who play tricks. In the whole Huai'an mansion, there are a group of useless monsters in the night demon forest, led by two small monsters, who kill them casually. Who is the master of human monsters Class? "

"Yo, now you've become two little monsters? When situ was asking for military expenses from the military headquarters, he said that the demon king in the forest was fierce and could not be killed in years of encirclement and suppression, endangering local stability. Now he's killed casually? Hum!"

With a cold smile, Prime Minister Wang sneered.

Murong mountain took out his face and clenched his fist with anger.

In fact, in the whole court, who doesn't know that there are some bandits or monsters that can't be exterminated and killed in every house of the Empire, which need to be encircled and suppressed year after year.

For, isn't it asking for money from above.

It can be said that these bandits and monsters are raised by the local local government owner and deliberately do not destroy them. If anyone takes the initiative to destroy them, the local government owner must be anxious with him.

This is a hidden rule that everyone knows, even the emperor knows it in his heart.

Just like today, it's the first time to get it to the court.

Glancing at them, the emperor smiled, waved his hand and said, "well, you two Aiqing don't have to quarrel. I think so. Since general Murong thinks there's something strange here, I'll send someone down to have a look. Come and let the inner palace walk. Xue pan will go to Huai'an house!"

"Yes, your majesty!"

The eunuch next to him nodded slightly and went to deliver the message.

The prime minister and Murong mountain stared at each other, bowed to the emperor and retired.

After going down to the court, Murong mountain returned to the hall of the house, slapped the table angrily, immediately smashed the marble table around him, and scolded: "just send a small eunuch to check this matter, which is obviously perfunctory to me, hum!"

"The emperor has the idea of the emperor. The owner doesn't have to be angry."

On the right side of the hall, there was a fire. An old man with white hair was baking beside the fire to keep warm. Even in dog days, he was still cold and murmured: "Did the family leader read the joint letter of the families in Huai'an? I heard that the master of situ's house didn't have a good relationship with the families. As a result, he died, and the families jointly asked for merit for him. This is tantamount to telling the world that it has something to do with them."

"Hum, there is no 300 taels of silver here. These fools, I haven't found them yet, but they jumped out first." with a cold smile, Murong mountain's eyes were murderous.

The old man didn't look at him, but shook his head and said, "no, this is a wonderful chess move. It seems that he is very single and takes the suspicion on his head. In fact, it is a conspiracy with the imperial court."
