"What crime?" Liu Che raised his eyebrows and said calmly. Tell me about it?"
"Your Majesty, this servant…this servant…"
Trembling, Chun Tuo told him everything that happened after he left Weiyang Palace and met Tian Meng.
"Your Majesty, Lord Tian is your…"
Before he could finish his words, Chun Tuo saw Liu Che's cold gaze sweeping over.
"This servant deserves to die, this servant deserves to die ten thousand times!”
Chun Tuo cried while slapping himself more than ten times.
"Pa!"
"Pa!"
"Pa!"
……
Chun Tuo's face was swollen after more than ten slaps.
Liu Che's expression didn't change at all.
Without Liu Che stopping him, Chun Tuo did not dare to stop and could only continue to slap himself.
After a while, blood started to seep out of the corner of Chun Tuo's mouth. Even kneeling down seemed to be a little strenuous.
When he felt that it was about time, Liu Che stopped Chun Tuo.
"Alright! Considering that this is your first offense and your attitude of admitting your mistake is quite sincere, let's put this matter aside for the time being!”
"No matter who asks you, you must not reveal what Zhen asked you to do! Even if the Empress Dowager came, she wouldn't be able to say anything, let alone Tian Meng!”
"If there's a next time, the position of the Middle Minister's Attendant will be changed.”
" Dong dong…" Chun Tuo's heart trembled."Thank you for your mercy, Your Majesty. This servant deserves to die. This servant will never make such a mistake again.”
"Chun Tuo, go to the Great Farming Decree Office and pass down my order to order the Great Farming Decree to bring over the tax revenue, various expenditures, and the offerings of the various vassal states for the next three years! I want to hear it personally! Especially those from Liang, Qi, and Wu.”
"This servant obeys!"
It was only when they left the Xuanshi Hall that Chun Tuo's heart gradually calmed down.
Liu Che was only fourteen years old, but the pressure he gave him was even greater than the previous emperor!
Touching his back, Chun Tuo realized that his back was already drenched in cold sweat.
"Fortunately, fortunately, I took the initiative to confess, so I was lucky enough to save my life.”
"If it gets exposed later, I…won't be able to keep my head!”
After rejoicing in his heart, Chun Tuo quickly left the Xuanshi Hall.
Halfway there, Chun Tuo met Zhao Yan, the official of the sect, who looked hurried.
Seeing that Zhao Yan was about to stop him, Chun Tuo retreated in fear as if he had seen a ghost.
Obviously, Liu Che's words scared Chun Tuo out of his wits.
"Lord Zhao, don't come over.”
"Eunuch Chun, I have something urgent to report. Is His Majesty in the Xuanshi Hall?”
Chun Tuo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that it was not confidential information.
"His Majesty is in the Xuanshi Hall. If you have something to do, go quickly.”
Although he felt that Chun Tuo's attitude was a little strange, Zhao Yan still bowed to Chun Tuo and said,""Thank you, Eunuch!"
"Your humble subject Zhao Yan requests an audience with Your Majesty." Standing outside the Xuanshi Hall, Zhao Yan respectfully said.
"Come in."
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
Liu Che glanced at Zhao Yan. According to Zhao Yan's attitude in the court, he should be biased towards him.
The Zong Zheng Department was in charge of the royal family and imperial clan affairs. Since the official, Zhao Yan, had come, something must have happened in the vassal states.
"Zhao Yan, why are you looking for me? Tell me."
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the matter I want to report will not make Your Majesty happy. If I don't report it, I'm afraid I'll disappoint you…"
"This lowly official has just received a report regarding the King of Liang.”
"King of Liang?" Liu Che narrowed his eyes and put down the memorial in his hand.
"Recently, the King of Liang did not hesitate to seize land and build a large number of buildings! There were many courtyards, pavilions, and pavilions. The palaces were connected and stretched for dozens of miles! Extremely luxurious!"
"He even specially sent a master craftsman to sneak into the palace and imitate the blueprint of Weiyang Palace. After obtaining it, he copied it and built it to the original size!”
" The magnificence of it is much more than the one here…"
"Let's put it this way, whatever His Majesty uses copper here, he will change it to…pure gold!”
After he finished speaking, Zhao Yan lowered his head deeply, not daring to look at Liu Che's expression.
Pausing for a moment, Zhao Yan braced himself and said again.
"The King of Liang made a great contribution back then and was rewarded by the previous emperor.”
"However, you shouldn't violate the rules!”
" The King of Liang also often used the 'Emperor's Banner' that the previous Emperor had given him. When he patrolled, he rode the Emperor's chariot, surrounded by thousands of riders…"
"Carriage guards and deacons are all of the same standard as the emperor…"
" King of Liang…King of Liang might have…" Zhao Yan really didn't dare to say the last two words.
"This time, His Majesty suddenly ascended the throne and hasn't officially announced it to the world. This gives some people delusions!”
"Your Majesty, this is the reason for the chaos in the court.”
"Your Majesty, please ascend the throne as soon as possible and announce it to the world to deter the villains! To strengthen the prestige of our Darkhan Dynasty!"
Finishing, Zhao Yan kowtowed to express his determination to follow Liu Che.
"King Liang!" Liu Che's eyes flashed with killing intent as he thought, I was just about to deal with you, but you came knocking on my door!
At this moment, the system notification sounded in his mind.
"Ding! The Darkhan Dynasty is facing internal troubles and the King of Liang is causing trouble. Please make your choice!”
" Option 1: [Reward: The Complete Book of Emperor's Power!]
"Option 2: Announce to the world and prepare to ascend the throne! [Reward: 1,000 sets of refined Qin crossbows!]
