Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

At this moment, the Emperor took a deep breath and immediately reached out to Mr. Zhao beside him, saying, ”Bring it to me!”

Upon hearing these words, Mr. Zhao immediately raised the Eight Kings’ Biography high and slowly approached the Emperor, kneeling to present it to him.

The Emperor then took the Eight Kings’ Biography, slowly opened it, and after reading its contents, took a deep breath.

”Read it to the loyal officials.”

Mr. Zhao took it, unfolded it, and slowly began to proclaim.

All the court officials leaned in to listen carefully, their eyes turned towards the Emperor’s direction, and as Mr. Zhao read aloud, the Emperor’s face grew unpredictable. At this moment, everyone took a deep breath, realizing that the Emperor had changed his mind.

When Mr. Zhao announced the names of the various kings, all the literati ministers said nothing—the power of the Eight Kings’ Biography indeed left everyone present in awe.

Tuotuo was also taken aback—this time it was a real play.

On another front, Tuotuo’s number one henchman, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, stepped forward: ”Your Majesty!”

The Emperor looked at him and said, ”Do you have something to say, Lord?”

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said: ”Your Majesty, this King Qi Li Siqi reigns in the Northwest, defying royal decrees, and now goes as far as conspiring with various kings to pressure the throne. This is a grave offense of disrespect, and I ask Your Majesty to punish him!”

Hmm?

After hearing these words, everyone looked at the Minister with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

This fellow is still trying to protect Tuotuo at this time, truly proving to be Tuotuo’s top henchman, of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that all the wealth and honor of the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel depend on Tuotuo. In other words, once Tuotuo falls, all those under his command will suffer, so whether he can protect or not, he must persist.

Thinking of this, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said: ”Your Majesty, I believe that the memorial submitted by the various kings is an act of forcing the throne. If Your Majesty handles things according to their demands, they will propose even more excessive requests in the future. Pray tell, Your Majesty, to do or not to do?”

”Lord Tuotuo, although he erred, he is wholeheartedly for Your Majesty, while these various kings hold soldiers and generals. If Your Majesty continually yields, they will develop a domineering nature, what then shall we do!”

Upon hearing this, all present fell into deep thought, eyebrows furrowed high, unexpectedly the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel was able to explain from this angle—not to be outdone as Tuotuo’s top henchman, somewhat skilled.

Old Hama at this moment did not care what the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said but looked at him saying: ”Heh heh, Chao Lu, you speak nicely, but these Vassal Kings are all relatives of the Royal Family, how could they have intentions of forcing the throne? Besides, this authority was granted by the Grand Ancestor, are you saying the Grand Ancestor’s policies were wrong?”

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel responded: ”Naturally, the Grand Ancestor was not wrong, but the fear is the people have lost their original intentions!”

At this moment, Old Hama said: ”Heh heh, well, even if what you say is correct, you know, what follows the Eight Kings’ Biography might be a movement to ’rectify the emperor’s entourage’, should the various kings thus come to the capital to seek royal justice, how do you plan to handle it!”

Hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said: ”Soldiers come, generals resist; water comes, earth blocks. If they quickly come to the capital, we also have the Treasure Elephant Army to confront them.”

”Can one army of the Treasure Elephant Army stop all the Vassal Kings in the world?”

”Then there is the Ruyang King, the White Deer Army, and the Treasure Elephant Army combined, the Empire’s two main army corps cannot block all the Vassal Kings in the world?”

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel said to Old Hama.

Old Hama laughed heartily upon hearing these words: ”Haha... you do know there’s the Ruyang King, isn’t the Ruyang King one of the world’s Vassal Kings? Arresting people is you, using people is also you.”

”Do you think the Ruyang King is your house slave!”

Old Hama, in anger, shouted at the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel!
