"Forget it, forget it!" The little Emperor waved his hand." Young Guardian Ao, you don't have to be so polite.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ao Bai cupped his hands.”
The little Emperor cleared his throat and said,""Young Guardian Ao, what can't be said in court? Just now in court, you kept saying that someone was disrespectful to me. Who was it? Was it Suksaha?”
Ao Bai nodded and said,"Your Majesty, Suksaha has disloyalty. His memorial is a treason and heresy, and he must be executed. The Emperor has just taken over the throne, and he has already submitted a memorial to despise the Emperor. If the Emperor does not take over the throne, he can live, but if the Emperor takes over the throne, he will die. That clearly means that the Emperor is cruel to the servants. I think that Suksaha is treacherous and wants to kill the young master. He refuses to return to the throne. According to the law of this dynasty, he should be executed together with his eldest son. His adopted sons, brothers, and clansmen should be executed together!”
The little Emperor said,"I'm afraid this punishment is too heavy."”
Ye Qiu, who was hiding at the back, was also anxious. A minister who cared about his life, how big of an official was that? He had actually fallen to the point where his entire family was implicated. This palace wall was indeed dangerous.
Even the little Emperor was afraid at this moment. His body was trembling slightly.
Ao Bai said," Your Majesty, you are still young. I'm afraid you don't know much about the state affairs. Suksaha was ordered by the late Emperor to assist us in the state affairs. The Emperor is in charge of the state affairs, so he should be happy. However, he wrote this memorial and slandered the Emperor. It's obvious that he has evil intentions. Your Majesty, please approve my suggestion and increase the severity!"”
The more Wei Xiaobao listened, the more he wanted to cheer for this old bastard. Others harbored evil intentions, but he was loyal and devoted. The world was about to belong to him alone.
The little Emperor said," Although Suksaha is in the wrong, he is an assistant minister. Like you, he was highly valued by the previous Emperor." If I had…killed the important minister that the late emperor favored at the beginning of my rule, the late emperor's spirit in heaven would probably not be happy.”
Ao Bai laughed and said,"That's right, you're talking like a child." The former emperor ordered Suksaha to assist in the government. He served the main household very well and worked hard. If he remembered the previous emperor's kindness, he should do his best, go through fire and water, and serve as a servant. That was the truth of being a servant. However, Suksaha was resentful and openly slandered him. He said that his life was more important than the affairs of the court. This fellow had let down the previous emperor, but it wasn't the previous emperor who had let this fellow down. Haha, haha!”
As he spoke, he actually laughed out loud.
"What's so funny about Young Master Ao?" the little Emperor asked, puzzled.”
"Yes, yes, no," said Oboi, startled.”
He also realized that his behavior had violated the rules, and his expression was very awkward. After all, as a subject, how could he laugh in front of the Emperor for no reason?
The little Emperor was silent. After a while, he said,""Even if I didn't let Suksaha down, if I kill him now, it would hurt the former emperor's reputation. If the people of the world didn't say that I killed the wrong person, they would say that the former emperor didn't know the ability of others. The imperial court announced Sukesaha's twenty-four major crimes to the world. Everyone thought in their hearts that Sukesaha had committed such a heinous crime. The former emperor actually used such a bad guy as an assistant minister. The bad guy, Ao Shaobao, was listed as one of them. This, this…wasn't he too ignorant?”
Wei Xiaobao nodded and thought,'The little Emperor's words make sense.”
"The Emperor only knows one thing," said Ao Bai. Let the people of the world think whatever they want. They wouldn't dare to say it casually. Who would dare to slander the previous emperor?”
The little Emperor did not think much of it. He said,""The ancient books say it well: 'It is better to defend the mouth of the people than to defend the river'. It is not good to blindly behead the people and not allow them to speak their minds.”
Oboi snorted." The words of the Han scholars are the worst. If the Han scholars are right, why would the Han Empire fall into the hands of the Manchurians?" Therefore, this servant would like to advise the emperor that it is better to read less of these Han books. The more you read, the more confused your mind will become."
The little Emperor did not answer.
"I followed Emperor Taizong and the late Emperor on expeditions from the east to the west," Oboi continued."I fought from outside the pass to inside and made countless contributions to the Han. I don't even know a single Chinese character, but I still killed many southern barbarians." To conquer the world and protect the world, we still have to use our Manchurian methods.”
The little Emperor said," Young Guardian Ao's contribution is naturally great. Otherwise, the late Emperor would not have placed him in such an important position."”
Ao Bai's face was smug as he continued,"This servant only knows how to be loyal and work for the emperor. From Emperor Taizong to Emperor Shizu, and now, it was all the same. Your Majesty, we Manchurians are particular about rewards and punishments. Those who are loyal will be rewarded, and those who are disloyal will be punished. This Suksaha was a treacherous official and must be severely punished.”
'I can tell you're a traitor just by hearing your voice,' thought Wei Xiaobao.”
"Why do you insist on killing Suksaha?" the little Emperor asked.”
"What reason could this servant have?" Ao Bai's expression changed immediately.
The little Emperor was anxious and a little afraid.
"I'm fighting for the Manchurian world," Oboi snapped. Emperor Taizong, the foundation that Emperor Taizong had painstakingly built, he couldn't let his descendants ruin it. Your Majesty asking this servant like this, this servant really doesn't understand what your Majesty means!”
The more he spoke, the louder his voice became, and his tone became more and more fierce. His hands were clenched so tightly that cracking sounds could be heard. The little Emperor kept swallowing his saliva, his eyes darting back and forth on that huge fist, and his body was almost shrinking under the dragon throne.
"Ao Shaobao, must you kill Sukesaha?" the little Emperor asked in a trembling voice. Don't you have any selfish motives? I heard that there is a dispute between the inlaid yellow flag and the white flag? You…"
"Emperor, you suspect this servant?" Ao Bai raised his eyes and slowly approached the desk in front of the little Emperor.
"No, no!" The little Emperor hurriedly waved his hand.
"Emperor, this official is doing this for our world. The foundation that our ancestors and emperors painstakingly built, are we going to let it be destroyed on our heads? I really don't understand!" Ao Bai clenched his fists and approached the little Emperor.
The little Emperor was trembling in fear. Wei Xiaobao was furious. He ran out and blocked the little Emperor with his little body. He shouted,"Bastard, old turtle, how dare you be rude to the emperor. Aren't you afraid of being beheaded?”
"Emperor, this lowly subject deserves to die!" Oboi didn't expect that there was someone else in the room. He had indeed crossed the line with his words. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to beg for mercy, but when he saw who it was, he immediately stood up." It's you!"”
