Chapter 308 Final Judgment
Zhu Yunwen quickly announced the final verdict, but most people were still dissatisfied with the verdict of King Qi, especially King Ning, who had no intention of letting King Qi go. He even repeatedly asked Zhu Yunwen to punish King Qi for death.
"King Ning, everyone is qualified to say this, but you don't..."
"Emperor, the King of Qi is in trouble and he must not tolerate it..."
"King Ning, what you mean is to deal with King Qi according to the Ming Dynasty's law..."
"That's right!"
"Then, King Ning, you are rushing to me, what crime should you punish the Ming Dynasty's legal calendar?"
King Ning suddenly became scared and knelt down. He trembled and said, "I deserve to die!"
"King Ning, you only know now that you deserve to die. Is it too late..."
"Prince, forgive me!"
"King Ning, don't say that I won't give you a chance. If you want to follow the Ming Dynasty's law, then you will be punished with the King of Qi and you will consider it clearly..."
"I am confused, do everything as the emperor said..."
"Where are you?"
"Abide by the Emperor's Holy Order!"
Zhu Yunwen smiled and said, "I just ascended the throne, and I can't bear to see each other's flesh and blood. After all, we are all the bloodlines of Emperor Taizu. Do you really want me to be ashamed of him?"
"The emperor is kind and blessed by all people..."
Zhu Yunwen solved this crisis in just a few words and even became famous as a benevolent king because of this matter. The Yan King spent so much effort but got nothing. His image in the hearts of the vassal kings plummeted, and many vassal kings even suspected that he was the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Your Highness, please calm down!"
"Xu Ai, I'll ask you why you failed this time..."
"I……"
Xu Ai still couldn't understand why the plan failed. He had a way to answer the words of King Yan, so he had no choice but to remain silent in the end.
"Your Highness, King Yan, we still underestimated Zhu Yunwen..."
"Military advisor, why did you say this?"
"I suspect that Zhu Yunwen had an insight into our plan from the beginning..."
"This is impossible!"
"Your Highness, King Yan, I know you can't accept this result, but if you don't face this reality quickly, all of us will die without a complete body."
"Military advisor, what do you mean?"
"Your Highness King Yan, if you were Zhu Yunwen, do you think he would return to your fiefdom safely?"
Yao Guangxiao was afraid that Zhu Yunwen would take action secretly. After all, it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity now. Besides, no one would dare to have any objections if he killed the King of Yan.
"Military advisor, what should we do now?"
"Escape! The faster the better..."
Although the King of Yan was a little unwilling to accept that he still followed Yao Guangxiao's advice and left the capital immediately. The King of Yan even left the capital with great fanfare. This was completely Yao Guangxiao's idea. After all, Zhu Yunwen had already issued an order to ask King of Yan to return to his fiefdom to serve, so it would be legitimate to go there.
"Your Majesty, where is the King of Yan almost at the North Gate?"
"Li Lu, what do you want to say..."
"Your Majesty, as long as you give your order, I will immediately lead a team of troops to intercept the King of Yan..."
How could Zhu Yunwen not know Li Lu’s mind? But he really couldn’t kill the King of Yan, and in the end he could only continue the lie.
"I was infected with a very strange poison. Because of this poison, I cannot kill the King of Yan for the time being..."
"Your Majesty, what's going on?"
Luo Yue suddenly grabbed Li Lu: "Li Lu, don't you see that the emperor doesn't want to tell you?"
"emperor……"
"Li Lu, this is related to the royal secrets, and I really can't tell you..."
"What about the King of Yan?"
"He's going..."
Zhu Yunwen admitted that he was just letting King Yan go for the time being, but when he solved the poison, it would be the death of King Yan. Of course, Li Lu believed it, and he even proposed to help Zhu Yunwen find the antidote.
"Li Lu, I have found a way to suppress the poisonous poison. I believe I will be able to refine the antidote soon."
"Very good."
"I want to rest, you can step down."
"Yes, the emperor."
Zhu Yunwen spent a lot of effort to calm Li Lu down, and he even brought out all the lies, otherwise Zhu Yunwen really wouldn't know how to stop Li Lu.
"Your Majesty, don't Li Lu keep the matter secret just now?"
"Li Lu will never talk nonsense."
Zhu Yunwen was not worried that Li Lu would say anything randomly, but it was absolutely impossible to transfer Li Lu out of the capital according to the current situation. In the end, the issue of letting Li Lu work in Yun Province was gone.
"Your Majesty, are you worried?"
"Queen, why did you say that..."
"I always see the emperor's frowning face..."
"This is just that state affairs are too busy..."
Zhu Yunwen lied to the queen again, after all, he really didn't know how to tell her the truth. It turned out that Zhu Yunwen was worried about this matter for a while, after all, he really didn't know how to speak.
"Queen, do you believe there are gods in this world?"
"Your Majesty, have you had any adventure..."
"No."
"Then why did you ask that?"
Zhu Yunwen had no choice but to deceive the queen with a dream. After all, he didn't dare to tell the truth now because he really didn't know what would happen if the queen knew the truth.
"Your Majesty, how could the things in the dream be real?"
"Queen, if it is really like the dream said, my soul travels through the world tens of thousands of lives later..."
"Your Majesty, don't scare me?"
The queen was so scared that she was so scared that Zhu Yunwen could only hug her and comfort her. But for some reason, the queen hugged Zhu Yunwen more enthusiastically than usual and kissed her passionately. In the end, she even took the initiative to love Zhu Yunwen. After a storm of clouds and rain, the two of them hugged each other tightly, but Zhu Yunwen never expected that the queen had already learned the truth. She even knew what was going on from Zhu Yunwen's so-called dream.
"Your Majesty, I want to ask you a few questions."
"Queen, ask!"
"Your Majesty, do you love me?"
"Of course I love it."
"If the emperor had traveled from dozens of lives like he had in his dream, would you dislike me?"
"Follower, I can't even love you, how could I dislike you?"
The queen was in a very complicated mood. She was helpless and didn't even know how to deal with herself. In the end, she could only swallow all the secrets into her stomach, hoping that time could give her an answer. Zhu Yunwen didn't notice the queen's changes at all, and finally pushed her down again despite the queen's opposition. Zhu Yunwen had no idea that he would hurt the queen if he did this, and finally made her cry.
