Chapter 164: Imperial Master Mu Quan usurps the throne of the faint emperor (33)

"Ever since His Highness Yan Qing'an, the second prince, died on the battlefield, Gu Xian'an, a knight-errant, has taken the initiative to become an official. He holds the post of prime minister and assists the emperor in managing state affairs." Lu Yin grabbed Gu Xian'an's hair and pointed the sharp sword straight. Touching his neck, "He accepted His Highness the Second Prince's favor and said he would protect you and Yu Guo well, but now it's your turn to make a choice."

Yan Qingning held her hand firmly: "What do you want?"

"I don't want much, just a jade seal and a piece of Zen edict from Your Majesty." Lu Yin made no secret of his greed.

"I can give you all these things." The more urgent the moment came, the calmer Yan Qingning became: "But you must let Prime Minister Gu go."

"Your Majesty gives me what I want, and I will naturally let him go."

The midday sun was a bit dazzling, but Gu Xian'an could no longer see. His blinded eyes could no longer see any color except darkness.

He vaguely discerned the current situation from the conversation.

"Lv Yao" intends to rebel and uses him as a hostage. He is asking Xiao Ning for things like jade seals and Zen edicts.

Gu Xian'an bit his lower lip, using pain to force himself to stay awake at this stall.

"Your Majesty, the State of Yu should belong to the Yan family. This is what I promised your brother!"

"Don't let him down..."

He couldn't tell where Yan Qingning was heading, so he could only open his mouth and shout loudly, trying to make Yan Qingning hear what he said.

Lu Yin heard what he said that was obviously against her will, but she didn't dare to kill him directly. She just slapped his bloody face hard.

He smiled sinisterly, and the threat in his words was obvious: "Your Majesty, you have to think carefully. Do you choose to continue sitting in this position and ignore the Prime Minister's life or death, or do you use the jade seal and the edict to save him?"

Gu Xian'an was hit by him and turned his head away, spitting out a mouthful of blood uncontrollably.

"Bring a pen and paper!" Yan Qingning's shallow eyes were bloodshot and her knuckles were white: "Bring a pen and paper, I will write a Zen edict now."

All he could think about now was the seriously injured Gu Xian'an, and he had no time to consider who had a greater chance of winning in a confrontation between the two sides.

Shen Zhuoan pinched his knuckles: "Your Majesty, calm down."

This time, Yan Qingning did not listen to his words like before, nor did she treat him as a substitute for the "Lord God" like before. Instead, she slammed his hand away and stared at him with red eyes.

"How do you want me to calm down, Master Imperial Master?"

"The person whose life is in danger is someone entrusted to me by my brother. How can I calm down?!"

The despair and sadness in his eyes were so obvious that it irritated Shen Zhuo'an's eyes for a moment, leaving him speechless.

Lu Yin stared at the farce between the two, and moved the sword in his hand farther away from Gu Xian'an to prevent him from accidentally hitting the sword and losing his bargaining chip.

"Since Your Majesty has figured it all out, Master Imperial Master, please stop messing around, lest you get annoyed in vain."

Shen Zhuo'an's eyes fell on him, and the hands beside him couldn't help but clenched.

This was the first time in his life that he wanted to kill someone so urgently.

Yan Qingning was worried that something might happen to Gu Xian'an, so he took the paper and pen he was handed and wrote a Zen edict and sent it to Lu Yin.

Lu Yin saw Yan Qingning writing down this edict in person. He didn't dare to cheat because he was concerned about Gu Xian'an's life, so he just sent the people around him to pack it up without giving it a second glance.

Yan Qingning: "I have already written the edict on the Zen position and handed it over to you. I have also sent people to get the jade seal from the palace. Can you let Prime Minister Gu go?"

"Your Majesty, how boring is it to let Prime Minister Gu go with just two simple things?" Lu Yin's eyes turned between him and Shen Zhuo'an, and said with a smile: "I still want to play a game with Your Majesty!"

Yan Qingning frowned: "What do you want to play?"

Lu Yin's eyes fell on Shen Zhuo'an beside him this time, and he said maliciously: "Have you forgotten, Your Majesty? I told you from the beginning that the Imperial Preceptor has spread a lot of information about you among the people. Rumors about stupidity and incompetence."

Shen Zhuang's head felt vaguely uneasy.

Lu Yin: "I want to see what kind of reaction your Majesty will have after hearing the rumors among the people on the city wall."

"You are committing a serious crime of deceiving the emperor!" Shen Zhuo'an angrily scolded him for his shameless behavior.

Lu Yin grabbed the back of Gu Xian'an's neck with one hand and glanced at him disdainfully: "I have done so many things to deceive the emperor, how can I have the face to reprimand me now?"

This sentence alone made all Shen Zhuoan's scoldings choke in his throat, and he could no longer say a word.

Yan Qingning ignored the undercurrent between the two and walked directly to the city wall.

The people under the city wall didn't notice a person standing on it at first. It wasn't until someone discovered Yan Qingning's presence that more and more people began to gather around and look up.

"Isn't this man the idiot emperor of our Yu Kingdom?!"

Someone recognized Yan Qingning's identity, and more and more people came to watch the fun.

As there were more people, the sharp words began to increase.

"What is he doing standing on the city wall? Is he aware of the people's sentiments? This is the first time I have seen an emperor who stands so high and understands the sentiments of the people!"

"He is a bullshit emperor. He leaves everything to the Imperial Preceptor and the Prime Minister. What's the use of it other than to use it as a name?"

"According to me, the emperor of our Yu Kingdom should be handed over to the Imperial Advisor. With the Imperial Advisor's governance, our life will definitely be better."

"I also heard that the dog emperor of our Yu Kingdom is no longer a thing. He directly stole all the money and food used to provide disaster relief to Jiangnan and North County!"

"You even dare to steal the life-saving money and food from ordinary people. This is so shameless!"

……

One after another, the curses came from below, like blunt knives one after another, harshly cutting into his nerves.

These are the people he protects with all his heart, but now... they are scolding him for those unwarranted charges.

He is the one who obviously takes corvee lightly and pays little in taxes. He is also the one who suppresses the nobility and allows common people to become officials...

He has obviously fulfilled his responsibility and allowed the people of Yu State to live and work in peace and contentment.

But the people he protected were scolding him because of some unconfirmed rumors and accusing him of countless crimes.

A warm hand covered his ear. Yan Qingning subconsciously turned his head and looked over. What he saw was Shen Zhuang'an's worried face.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to this..."

Yan Qingning took away his hand, looking down at the people below who were eager to eat his flesh and blood, and said in a soft voice, "But wasn't this caused by the master's own hands?"

An unexpected wind blew slightly, blowing the hair on the side of Shen Zhuo'an's face, exposing the ugly scar.

Yan Qingning took the initiative to press on the scar at the end of his eye, and said softly to him: "I told you a long time ago..."

"Shen Zhuo'an, you can't control the direction of public opinion..."
