Chapter 715 - 715 You don't have evidence, but I do!
715 You don’t have evidence, but I do!
Early in the morning.
The sky of the nine Cauldrons heaven was clear and blue.
The Golden sunlight shone down from the sky, crossing thousands of miles and falling on the thin spiritual mist above the ground.
It reflected dazzling lights of various colors, making the buildings on the ground seem as if they were bathed in a glazed celestial light.
The divine cauldron Palace, which had been razed to the ground by Lin Xuan’s sword, once again stood at the highest position of the nine cauldron heavens ‘Emperor after the top craftsmen of the nine cauldron heavens had built it day and night.
Moreover, compared to the past, the current shending Palace was more magnificent and imposing.
This Palace was originally built under the joint orders of Heavenly King ding, Rock King and Huai King, but now it was welcoming a true master …
Xuan ice Empress, donghuang Ziyou!
The first rays of the morning sun fell on the luxurious buildings of shending Palace, making it look as majestic as an Emperor’s radiance.
This caused all the officials who had gathered in the square in front of the palace to reveal excited expressions.
who would’ve thought that the great Empress would kill two kings in one night and take over the nine Cauldrons heaven! &Quot;
that’s right. I thought that this Palace would belong to either Heavenly King ding, Rock King or Huai King. Who would have thought that things would change so quickly? in the end, the one who can ascend to the throne of the divine cauldron Palace is actually the Empress! &Quot;
first, the Empress ruled the North Xuan sky. Then, she killed Emperor Dong Yuan and took over Dong Yuan sky. Now, she has taken over the nine cauldron sky. She is playing a game of chess! &Quot;
the Empress is very careful with her steps. Her far-reaching plans and high vision are really worthy of respect! &Quot;
……
Seeing that the time for the court session was almost up, and Empress Xuan Bing was about to appear, the discussions among the ministers became even more heated.
From their words, it was clear that they were extremely fearful and respectful of this young and powerful Empress.
In the face of the heated discussion of the nobles and ministers, three people in the crowd became more and more serious and sinister.
The goat-faced Vice Minister of Revenue, Wei Qishan, lowered his voice and said nervously, ”
“I’ve heard that the Empress is just and upright, and her means of punishing corruption are extremely ruthless.”
there’s a saying that a new official has to be fiercer than usual. She won’t target us in this court session, will she? ”
Upon hearing this, the fat old man standing in front of him narrowed his eyes and said, ”
“Don’t worry, after I heard that the great Empress had taken over the nine Cauldrons heaven, I immediately destroyed all the accounts and records.”
“No matter how capable she is, she won’t be able to find any clues!”
The old man was the chief of internal affairs in the nine Cauldrons heaven, Lu Rong. He held a high position and his words carried a lot of weight.
Hearing him say this, Wei Qishan’s expression quickly changed to one of relief.
The other man was a middle-aged man in a dark yellow robe. His name was Sima kun.
He was a member of the Sima clan. He nodded and said, ”
“Official Lu is a veteran in the officialdom and his actions are flawless. Since you have said so, we will face the Empress with peace of mind!”
Wei Qishan nodded,
“Yes, yes, yes!”
All these years, he had gained a lot of benefits by following behind Lu Rong and Sima kun.
When he suddenly heard that the Empress had taken over the nine Cauldrons heaven, he felt rather uneasy.
Now that he saw Lu Rong and Sima kun’s attitude, he quickly calmed down.
Lu Rong was an old hand in the officialdom, he had a wide network of connections, and his actions were cunning and cunning.
On the other hand, Sima kun was a true-blue member of the Sima royal bloodline, so his status was not ordinary.
Even if some rumors from outside reached the Empress’s ears, with the two of them standing in front of her, the Empress wouldn’t dare to touch them casually.
“It’s time for the court session!”
Someone shouted, and all the nobles and ministers immediately stopped talking and hurried to the hall with their heads lowered.
After the thousands of people stood in position in the Great Hall, they saw donghuang Ziyou, who was dressed in a purple-gold Phoenix robe and a phoenix crown, walking out from the high platform in front of them.
Walking to the front of the throne, she gently touched the sleeves of her robe. Her pair of beautiful Phoenix eyes contained a bit of Majesty as she scanned the hall.
All the princes and ministers knelt down and saluted, ”
“Your Majesty!”
“All ministers, rise!”
Donghuang Ziyou waved her hand and sat down on the Golden Throne.
“Thank you, Your Majesty!”
All the nobles and ministers stood up and looked up at the beautiful woman on the throne.
Such a beautiful young woman had become the master of the nine Cauldrons heaven in the blink of an eye.
Even though the people present were experienced, experienced, and knowledgeable, they still felt that this scene was too sudden and unreal.
Donghuang Ziyou’s cold and magnetic voice resounded throughout the Great Hall,
“From today onwards, I will be the master of the nine Cauldrons heavens!”
the nine cauldron heaven, the North Mystic heaven, and the Dong Yuan heaven occupy the northwest region of the nine Heavens celestial realm. They are closely related and should share the same water, earth, and laws. &Quot;
therefore, from now on, the nine Cauldrons heaven will follow the rules of the North Mystic heaven. The two worlds will seek common ground while reserving their differences and benefit the people to the greatest extent! &Quot;
“Your Majesty is wise!! All the nobles and ministers saluted.
Many of the officials had heard of the numerous reformations donghuang Ziyou had carried out in the North Mystic heaven.
All of them felt that donghuang Ziyou was a genius in governing the world. Every new policy that she introduced would definitely benefit the common people.
As such, they all agreed with donghuang Ziyou’s idea.
Donghuang Ziyou’s Phoenix eyes were filled with a sense of relief.
With Lin Xuan’s brilliant suggestions and her experience in managing the grotto-heaven, she was now able to manage the nine cauldron heavens with ease.
The unity of North profound heaven, Dong Yuan heaven, and nine cauldron heaven had finally brought her dream one step closer.
From now on, she would work even harder to govern the three worlds and exterminate all the enemies of her father and the eastern royal tribe.
To let his world be peaceful and prosperous forever!
“Your Majesty, there’s a man outside the palace with a blood letter!”
At this moment, a guard of the divine cauldron Palace rushed in to report.
A letter of blood?
The eyes of all the nobles and ministers present twitched upon hearing this. Someone was going to file an Imperial complaint to the Empress.
Who was it that brought a blood letter to the Imperial court on the first day of the Empress’s court session?
Who did he want to Sue?
Donghuang Ziyou came back to her senses and raised her hand. &Quot;
“Announce!”
“Yes!”
The guard quickly turned around and left.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall became rather tense. Many nobles and ministers could not help but look at each other with apprehension in their eyes.
Only Lu Rong, Sima kun, and Wei Qishan were calm, as if everything was under their control.
Soon, the guard led a middle-aged man in a gray robe into the hall.
The moment they saw the man, Lu Rong, Sima kun and Wei Qishan’s expressions finally changed.
They recognized that the person holding the blood letter was the former Vice Minister of Revenue, Ma Yi.
Ma Yi looked at the three of them with a face full of hatred. He quickly held the blood letter and knelt down with a loud bang.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, this commoner was originally one of the six great assistant ministers of the Ministry of Revenue. Because I discovered that Assistant Minister Wei Qishan was colluding with the chief of internal affairs, Lu Rong, as well as the Prince of Kangping, Sima kun, for corruption and the bending of the law, I was framed by them.”
not only was I stripped of my official position, but I was also hunted down by their subordinates. As a result, my entire family is lying dead in the wilderness, and I’m the only one alive! &Quot;
I heard that Your Majesty has conquered the nine Cauldrons heaven, so I wrote a letter in my blood to accuse Wei Qishan and the other two of their crimes. I hope that Your Majesty can uphold the Justice of the heavens and eliminate the evil, and spread the might of heaven! &Quot;
As he spoke, he raised the blood letter high.
Lu Rong, Sima kun, and Wei Qishan could not help but secretly look at each other. Killing intent flickered in the eyes of the three.
They had not expected that Ma Yi would actually come to the shending Palace to file a complaint against him on such an important day.
This made them wish they could tear Ma Yi into pieces on the spot to vent the hatred in their hearts.
However, he remembered that Ma Yi had not obtained any substantial evidence from the beginning, and Lu Rong had made preparations in advance last night to destroy all the evidence.
The three of them quickly calmed down.
Lu Rong even pretended to be angry and scolded, ”
How dare you! How dare you slander His Majesty! Do you know what crime it is to slander an important official of the court? ”
Wei Qishan added with a sinister expression,
Ma Yi, it was clearly you who wanted to monopolize the power in the Ministry of Revenue, and from there, you suppressed and excluded your colleagues in all kinds of ways. Fortunately, in the end, evil can not prevail over good, and you were finally punished for your evil deeds! &Quot;
“How dare you come to the Empress’s residence to slander us?”
Ma Yi was so angry by their words that his entire body was trembling.
He didn’t expect Lu Rong, Wei Qishan, and the others to be so shameless and bite back at him in front of the Empress.
“Your Majesty, please understand!”
Ma Yi could only clench his teeth and raise the blood letter to the highest point.
Donghuang Ziyou moved her finger and brought the blood letter to her face. She spread it open in the air.
With a glance, it was all Ma Yi’s records of Lu Rong, Wei Qishan, and Sima kun’s corruption and abuse of the law.
Her phoenix-like eyes turned as she looked down at Ma Yi and said, ”
“Looking at this blood letter, it is indeed written with sincerity.”
“But as an important official of the court, you should understand the principle of ruling the world by law.”
“So, other than this letter of blood, do you have any substantial evidence?”
When Ma Yi heard that, his expression could not help changing. He shook his head and said, ”
“I … Don’t have any!”
He also understood that if he wanted to bring down Lu Rong and the other two, he must have extremely heavy evidence.
However, he had been forced to leave the court for half a year. At first, he was even hunted down madly, so he had no evidence at all.
It was only because he had heard from his former colleagues that donghuang Ziyou had taken over the nine Cauldrons heaven that he had come to write a blood letter to lodge a complaint.
It seemed that he had been too reckless this time.
But …
Other than this path, he had no other path to take!
When Lu Rong and the other two saw Ma Yi shake his head, they could not help but show a very proud smile at the same time.
Without evidence, it meant that whatever Ma Yi said could not be counted, which was equivalent to slander.
Slandering an important official in the main hall was a capital crime!
The three people could not help but think that Ma Yi was really walking right into a trap this time, taking the initiative to drop in to seek his own death!
The other nobles and ministers of the Imperial court could not help but shake their heads silently.
“A letter of blood can at most make the Empress suspect lurong and the others.”
“It’s impossible for His Majesty to punish them for their crimes!”
“Ma Yi, oh ma Yi, you shouldn’t not understand this logic!”
Donghuang Ziyou took in the expressions of everyone in the palace. Finally, her phoenix-like eyes landed on Ma Yi and she said indifferently, ”
“You don’t have evidence, but I do!”
“Huh?”
Donghuang Ziyou’s sudden words shocked everyone present.
Donghuang twisted his Jade-like wrist and took out a Cloud Gold nanmu box.
Seeing this box, Lu Rong, who had been forcing himself to remain calm, could not help but narrow his eyes and take a deep breath.
This box contained all the accounts and evidence of his, Sima kun’s, and Wei Qishan’s corruption.
He clearly remembered that he had burned the box with his own hands last night.
Why did it appear in donghuang Ziyou’s hands?
