Chapter 463 Awesome
"That move of yours was truly amazing. I never imagined that the person who stabbed me last year was you, right?"
The emperor had no evidence, yet he still pinned a huge accusation on Wei Zhongxian. Clearly, the emperor was eager to bring Wei Zhongxian to his death.
But Wei Zhongxian wasn't stupid. Even if the emperor had evidence, Wei Zhongxian wouldn't admit it.
At worst, Wei Zhongxian could simply have Sun Yunhe admit his mistakes and take full responsibility for everything.
After all, the five tiger generals around Wei Zhongxian were all loyal to him, and they were there for him every time he encountered an insurmountable obstacle.
"There will be someone to take the blame and bear all the sins," Wei Zhongxian said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead. His voice trembled.
“Your Majesty, you can’t flatter me like that. I dare not. I’m only interested in serving the Ming Dynasty. I don’t care about how high my official rank is.”
"I only ask that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, so that I can successfully retire. Therefore, Your Majesty, I beg you not to make such jokes again." Wei Zhongxian said this quite seriously at the time.
If the Emperor hadn't known all along what kind of traitor Wei Zhongxian was, he probably would have actually believed it. The Emperor chuckled strangely.
The emperor stepped on Sun Yunhe's kneeling head, and Sun Yunhe had no choice but to obediently lower his head.
Because Sun Yunhe had just seen Wei Zhongxian and gave him a meaningful look.
Otherwise, how could the Emperor's kick have slammed Sun Yunhe's head to the ground? Sun Yunhe could probably have knocked the Emperor to the ground with his hard qigong.
“Sun Yunhe, tell me, when I sent you and Chen Er to kill Zhao Tianming, why did Chen Er almost die in the end, but you were safe and sound?”
"Can you tell me what conspiracy is hidden here?" You should know that the last two words of the Emperor were drawn out with an extra long syllable.
The Emperor's words made it clear that those who confess would be treated leniently, while those who resist would be punished severely. If Sun Yunhe confessed, everything would be fine, since Wei Zhongxian had the Empress Dowager behind him.
However, if Sun Yunhe dares to resist and be severely punished, then I'm sorry, even if Wei Zhongxian has the Empress Dowager backing him up, the Emperor still wants to kill the five tiger generals around Wei Zhongxian.
Then I won't let it go anymore. Besides, Wei Zhongxian has been developing his own power in recent years, and the most famous of them are the Five Tiger Generals around him.
So, if the emperor wanted to deal with Wei Zhongxian, the first thing he had to do was deal with the Five Tiger Generals. Sun Yunhe's body trembled uncontrollably.
Because Sun Yunhe has no way of explaining it now. The Emperor's question is simply too terrifying: why was Chen Er injured and almost died?
But as the presiding judge, not only did he get away with nothing, but the people from the Eastern Depot he led were just watching the show.
If it weren't for the kind-hearted people who used their bodies to build a wall there, Chen Er would have been dead long ago.
"Your Majesty, I have a private message regarding this matter. Let me tell you clearly, I have never respected Chen Er, so I did harbor some resentment at the time."
"That's why I didn't let the Eastern Depot take action. I hope Your Majesty will investigate thoroughly." Sun Yunhe hesitated for a long time before saying this.
Sun Yunhe was originally a strong and robust man. If Sun Yunhe were to lead troops into battle, he would probably win every battle. However, if Sun Yunhe were to lead troops into battle...
Finding excuses to absolve himself of guilt would be more painful than killing Sun Yunhe. However, as soon as Sun Yunhe finished speaking, the Emperor kicked him in the chin.
"Sun Yunhe, how dare you! What did Chen Er do to offend you? You don't like him, so what right do you have to dislike him? Well then, I don't like you today."
"So I can just drag you out and behead you?" Sun Yunhe was startled. He never expected the emperor to be so protective of Chen Er.
Left with no other choice, Sun Yunhe had to temporarily give Wei Zhongxian a warning, but Wei Zhongxian was now in dire straits and could hardly save himself. Wei Zhongxian was already regretting his actions.
I should have informed the Empress Dowager in advance, because Wei Zhongxian had already seen many imperial guards rushing in from outside. It was obvious that the Emperor had come prepared this time.
The Emperor's purpose in coming here is to first deal with the Five Tiger Generals. This is a conclusion that the Emperor and Chen Er reached after discussing it for a long time. Wei Zhongxian has always been a thorn in the Emperor's side.
Let's go back to before the Emperor arrived. The Emperor went to Chen Er's room again. At this time, Chen Er's complexion was much rosier, but his body was covered with many bandages.
After all, on that day, Chen Er fought against so many assassins all by himself, and he himself didn't even know how many wounds he had.
"Chen Er, it was my foolishness that caused you to suffer so much. If you had told me to kill anyone, I would have killed him."
"Your Majesty, I want to kill Wei Zhongxian,"
If Wei Zhongxian were really so easy to kill, we would have dragged him off his horse long ago, instead of continuing this nonsense. The Emperor patted Chen Er's uninjured shoulder.
"Chen Er, are you kidding me? You know how arrogant Wei Zhongxian is, and you should know just how ruthless his methods are."
"I really can't think of any way to get rid of Wei Zhongxian directly, so you should find someone else to kill him." The emperor had no choice but to tell the truth.
Although it's a bit embarrassing to say this, since the entire Ming Dynasty belonged to the emperor, there's a saying that goes, "When the emperor commands a subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die."
However, when this matter and this statement are applied to Wei Zhongxian, it seems a bit unrealistic. Chen Er bit her lip and looked at the emperor with red eyes.
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Er suddenly had an idea.
"Your Majesty, if you wish to kill Wei Zhongxian, I have a very good plan. I wonder if you have the courage and determination to go up against your mother?"
Chen Er spoke calmly, but the content of his words caused the emperor to tremble.
Yes, the Emperor has never yelled at the Empress Dowager all these years, and the two of them have never broken down their barriers.
So if the two of them have no food, then the Ming Dynasty will be at peace. But if either of them takes another step forward, then even if the unspoken understanding between them isn't broken, their relationship will become increasingly strained.
