Seeing Chu Yuan, Capital Commandant Sun looked as if he was about to die, his legs weaked, and he collapsed on the g.
Sitting on his Dragon Blood horse, Liu Xi observed Capital Commandant Sun's reaction, and he faintly perceived that this man before him had no ordinary backg. Could he be a descdant of some extraordinary power that ev Capital Commandant Sun was terrified of him?
"Capital Commandant Sun, what's wrong? Who is he exactly? My father is the official of the Ministry of Works, Liu Yong. Ev if he has a significant backg, there's no need to be afraid of him. I've got your back," Liu Xi said, confused.
"Your Majesty, your servant greets you!"
Capital Commandant Sun crawled towards Chu Yuan before kneeling down.
"The Emperor is here!"
The arriving group also froze. Once they recovered from the shock, they quickly kneeled down, shouting long live to the Emperor.
"I unknowingly offded the Emperor, ev using my father as a pressure tool!"
Liu Xi's brain wt blank, frighting him into a cold sweat.
He could never imagine that this young man before him would be the currt Emperor. Today, he not only threated the Emperor but also expressed rebellious words at Miaoyin Square. Each one of them was an ormous crime punishable by family execution.
He was not inviting death, but precisely seeking it.
Although his father was one of the Six Ministers, ev the Prime Minister had to give some face, but in front of the Emperor, it was insignificant. After all, he was the sovereign of Dawu.
His first reaction was to turn the Dragon Blood horse a and run far away.
"Hmm?"
Chu Yuan cast his gaze on the Dragon Blood horse. The immse authority and killing intt of the Emperor caused the horse to neigh, falling to the g. Liu Xi was also thrown off the horse, landing in an extremely dreadful state.
"Liu Xi, you dared to offd the Emperor today. Where do you think you are going?"
Capital Commandant Sun roared with rage in his eyes. Liu Xi, this idiot, not only put himself in trouble but also implicated him, "Forbidd Army, arrest Liu Xi!"
Clang! Clang!
The sound of armor clashing resonated from afar. In a mere momt, Song Ying, leading the imperial guards, came rushing towards them. He scanned the surings with his eyes and gasped, "Your servant greets you, Your Majesty."
"This... This... These were traded from Dalian by my father," Liu Xi responded in panic.
"Really? Our late Emperor also once st people to trade, but Dalian did not agree to it. Does an official from the Ministry of Works possess such a big face?" Chu Yuan queried.
"Stupid! How could Liu Yong give birth to such a stupid son!"
Song Ying felt fortunate that he did not have any child. Otherwise, he would die of anger if he had such a stupid son. If Li Yu merely dug a pit for his father, Liu Xi's stupidity was dangering his whole family's life—no, not just his life, but also his whole family's life.
"So, you want to be an Emperor, Liu Xi. Wouldn't it be better if I give you my throne?"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chu Yuan spoke with a thunderous voice echoing like a blast.
"I... It was just a casual remark..." Liu Xi had already wet his pants in fear. Where was his courage from Miaoyin Square now? He pleaded in terror, "Your Majesty, have mercy!"
"A casual remark, well said."
Chu Yuan replied, "Song Ying, arrest Liu Yong first and imprison him in the death cell to be executed, and suspd the Ministry of Works from office. I'll conduct a thorough investigation into the Dragon Qin and Dragon Blood horse matters. If the Ministry of Works is innoct, I'll do justice. And, if they indeed colluded, I'll show no mercy."
"Yes," Song Ying replied.
"Also, I've noticed that some people in the Forbidd Army are in close contact with some civilian and military officials and ev dare to indulge them in the street. This is not good. I'll start an investigation from this Capital Commandant Sun, and th look into all the eight camps of the Forbidd Army."
Chu Yuan thundered, "After I return to the palace, I'll issue an imperial edict, as long as it is authorized by the Emperor, whether it's the Ministry of Works or one of the Six Ministers, you can investigate them. And you don't have to worry as the Duke of Loyalty and Bravery will cooperate with your investigation, and I am at your back."
"Ding! The host makes choice two, gains 0 Destiny Points, and % progress of War God's Grip, with a total progress of 0%."
"The currt balance of Destiny Points is 950."
"There's going to be an upheaval."
Song Ying ssed the coming storm. This Liu Xi not only undid his own father but also all the civilian and military officials in the court and the Forbidd Army's eight camps. There's no telling how many people would have wanted to kill this Liu Xi.
"Your servant obeys the order!"
Without uttering another word, Song Ying merely obeyed the order.
"Also, I'll personally sd Liu Xi to the death cell, with the God Martial Army keeping an eye."
Chu Yuan said, "Go. Any person who dares to collude with the emy and betray the country will have no mercy!"
