"Your Majesty !" Shouted the Imperial Advisors.
"Little Emperor, look at all your followers not even caring about your life and preferring to protect your Mother, when you are Emperor. Look at these sinners, do you want to punish them ?" Iris asked in a loud voice.
"Let go of my son ! You lady jal*ng, I want to kill you !" Shouted Qing Ying Ke.
"You can call me with a variety of harsh words in this world, but have you never felt ashamed and thought about it for yourself ? If I were you, I would be ashamed to die. " Chang Rui said.
"Who doesn't know about your affair with your father-in-law's Imperial Eunuch ? Actually, the death of Nangong Xi, you are the one who wants it the most, surpassing everyone else. " Continue Chang Rui and Qing Ying Ke's face instantly turned pale.
"Don't indiscriminately accuse if you don't have proof !" Shouted Qing Ying Ke.
"Having no proof, then will you explain everything in your room. Including the bracelets and earrings that you always use ? You said that it was you who bought it yourself, but if I'm not mistaken then on the back there's a Han sign which means Han Yi. " Chang Rui said with a sneer.
"You're recklessly slandering !" Qing Ying Ke shouted frantically as people started to look at him.
"Is what you say true ?" Asked Nangong Xiu.
"Why am I lying ? I don't like to play a role, especially slandering others. Because I don't like being slandered, I won't slander others either. Then, further, if I am not wrong then there should be two marks on your lower legs, each on the right and left, if combined, it will form the word Han. " Chang Rui said out loud.
The Imperial Advisor directly ordered the detention of Qing Ying Ke and Qing Ying Ke looked rebellious.
"How sassy is it ! You can't do this to the Queen Mother ! I am your leader ! I order you to stop ! My son, help me !" Shouted Qing Ying Ke.
"If Mother is indeed proven to commit adultery, then in accordance with the rules, Mother must be exiled to the border. Because Mom was the one who had raised me all this time, then I will only let Mother reflect on the mistake in the Temple of Goddess Guan Yin that is outside the city walls and live simply together with the nuns." Nangong Xiu said flatly and coldly.
Chang Rui was shocked when he heard this, who would have thought that this child had such a cold heart and seemed so wise.
It seemed, Nangong Li was not wrong in choosing the successor of this Empire. Chang Rui was silent to be happy about this.
Thus was Qing Ying Ke's leg examined and it was true what Chang Rui said, people directly held Qing Ying Ke back because this was a huge sin.
"Listen to my orders, bring the Queen Mother, Qing Ying Ke to seclusion at the Temple of the Goddess Guan Yin outside the city walls and live in seclusion along with the nuns until the end of her life. No one can let him out without my permission !" Nangong Xiu said loudly and was listened to by everyone.
But, who would have thought that little Nangong Xiu did not listen to anything as his ears were covered by Chang Rui's two hands.
Chang Rui sighed and decided to let go of Nangong Xiu, since the source of the problem was already finished then Chang Rui would not act so hard anymore.
"Did you do this for fear that I would be angry ?" Chang Rui asked Nangong Xiu.
"No, he made a fatal mistake, he deserves it. Since I want to form a new Empire and realize my uncle's wish to give peace to this Empire, then I must be firm to everyone including myself and my relatives. " Said Nangong Xiu with clenched hands.
Chang Rui silently felt amazed at the determination that this child had, where other children were still playing with their peers, Nangong Xiu already had to bear all the burden of this Empire that was inflicted upon him.
"I hereby order the release of Nangong Li, as he is found not guilty. Up until now, the Qing Empire would never cooperate with the Bar People bar. Whoever agrees to cooperate is no better than a traitor and the one who does so must be put to death. " Said Nangong Xiu then walked into the Imperial Hall and sat on his throne while Nangong Li himself was taken out.
Nangong Li's gaze looked faint and unclear when he saw Chang Rui's face, Chang Rui was shocked when he saw Nangong Li's condition that was so severe.
"I thought I had a dream to see you come here. But, after seeing this splattered blood, I realized that none of this was a dream. " Said Nangong Li before finally falling into his arms.
Chang Rui hugged Nangong Li because he wanted to support the man's body which was very heavy compared to his.
"Bas an idiot, is this what you're up to with a good plan ? I think it's even worse than the plan put together by the kids. " Chang Rui said with annoyance.
"You shouldn't have come here, I don't want you to get hurt again. This place bears witness to my crimes against you, I don't want you to see this place again. " Said Nangong Li weakly.
"Stupid ! Are you going to bury yourself here ? I thought, you've gone crazy at this point !" Chang Rui.
"Indeed, I wish all this time that you don't have to remember everything, so you won't suffer. I have repeatedly wanted to distance myself from you, but who would have thought that I couldn't ? The more I want to get away, the closer we get. " Lirih Nangong Li's.
"I wish that I could hate you, you're the bad guy who's been hurting me all this time. But unfortunately my heart refuses to hate you. " Reply Chang Rui while carrying Nangong Li.
Chang Rui swept Nangong Li's body until he returned to Nangong Li's house and was greeted by Long Yu.
