I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

King Yan instantly became furious, pointed at Jiang Linglong angrily and said coldly.

"If you dare to touch me, I will make you pay for it!"

Seeing that he was still arrogant at this time, Jiang Linglong shook her head helplessly and spoke coldly.

"Your Highness, I am not the one who wants to touch you now, but you want to touch me! It's just that your evil plan didn't succeed. If you didn't have other little thoughts, how could you fall into my trap?"

King Yan's face looked very ugly, but he was still trying hard to argue.

At the same time, he was using his identity to constantly test Jiang Linglong.

"I'm telling you, I'm a prince. If you dare to attack me, the entire Great Zhou will be in turmoil. The people will be terrified. The whole Great Zhou will probably change!"

Lu Yuan curled the corners of his mouth with a smile on his face.

"At this point, what's the point of arguing? The winner will be the king and the loser will be the bandit. Everything is already a foregone conclusion!"

King Yan stared, unable to accept this result.

When he was about to say something, he was suppressed by Commander Zhao and his men.

As for the dozen or so grand masters, Jiang Linglong had not yet figured out what to do and just shook her head in disappointment.

"I also didn't expect that they would do such a thing. I am really disappointed. It is extremely difficult to reach the level of a grandmaster. The hard work involved can be imagined. It would be a pity if they just killed them like this!"

Hearing what he said, the grand masters fell to their knees and began to beg for mercy.

"Your Majesty, we know we were wrong. We were just deceived by King Yan, so we were bewildered and did such a thing. Please give us a chance, Your Majesty. We will never dare to do such a thing again!"

"It was King Yan who forced us to do this. We had no choice but to do this. Your Majesty, please understand!"

"We have always been loyal to the Great Zhou and to Your Majesty. How could we be like this if we were not coerced?"

After hearing these words, Dugu Aoyun couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You, more than a dozen Grandmasters, are already quite powerful. How could you not be able to defeat a Flame King? Even if you can't defeat him, can't you still escape?"

Their faces froze and they couldn't find any words to refute.

Jiang Linglong was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to solve this problem.

She looked at Lu Yuan with a worried look on her face and asked.

"Brother-in-law, how do you think we should deal with this matter? Should we give them a chance to redeem themselves, or should we cut off the roots?"

More than a dozen people looked at Lu Yuan, their eyes full of anticipation.

Some smart people have already started to kowtow and beg for mercy, hoping for a way to survive.

"Lord Lu, we know we were wrong. Please give us a way out. We are willing to work like slaves for you. We will never have second thoughts and will never do such a thing again!"

Even though they said so, Lu Yuan still looked indifferent, without any sympathy. Instead, he felt that these people were hateful and detestable.

After a moment's silence, he spoke slowly.

"There is no need to keep these people. I have two reasons. First, they lied and threw all the dirty water on King Yan, as if they were innocent. But as a grandmaster, how could I not have any solution?"

"Secondly, they framed their former master in this way, and they will do the same to you if they have the chance in the future!" Upon hearing this, the grand masters panicked. They never expected that Lu Yuan would be so cruel and not care about their dozens of lives at all.

In desperation, they could only continue to beg Jiang Linglong.

She is a woman and not very young, so she will naturally be soft-hearted. Maybe it will have some effect.

"Your Majesty, please forgive us. We know that we have committed serious sins and are willing to be punished. We only hope that Your Majesty can give us a chance to reform. We will do our best and die for you!"

"For more than a dozen of us Grandmasters, it is extremely difficult to practice. This is also a help to the Great Zhou. If we die here, it will be a great loss to the Great Zhou!"

This is also what Jiang Linglong is worried about, which is why she is so conflicted and doesn't know what to do.

And at this moment, Lu Yuan reminded.

"Now that the spiritual energy is gradually becoming richer, cultivation will become easier, and becoming a Grandmaster will no longer be as difficult as before!"

Then he looked at Jiang Linglong and said something seriously.

"You are now in a high position of power. As an emperor, you must kill decisively and with drastic measures!"

After thinking about this, she knew exactly what to do next and had some ideas in her mind.

There was a hint of coldness in Jiang Linglong's eyes, and then she spoke in a cold voice.

"The crime of treason is unforgivable. Imprison him first. I will make a decision with King Yan tomorrow!"

After the person was taken away, Jiang Linglong sighed and said with some regret.

"It's not easy for more than a dozen Grand Masters to cultivate to this level. It's normal for them to have some small thoughts. It's a pity that they are too stupid to understand the specific situation. It's normal for them to end up like this!"

Lu Yuan nodded, there was one more thing he needed to be reminded of.

"The power of King Yan is complex and intertwined, and he has done many outrageous things. It is not easy to touch him. You need to be mentally prepared!"

Jiang Linglong had already thought about this and had made arrangements from the beginning.

She could just use this incident with King Yan to let those people know that she was not someone who could be easily touched.

After understanding this, they knew what to do next.

Even if you have some little ideas, you can only hide them for now and not act rashly for the time being.

With the lesson of King Yan as a precedent, he naturally dared not do anything rash again.

It’s just that she still needs to think about the specific situation and hasn’t figured out what to do specifically.

On the other side, when Zhu Feng and Yuwen Honghao were discussing important matters, they saw a figure beside the bed.

She did not alert the enemy, but made a gesture to silence Yuwen Honghao and Shijian, and then started to talk about other topics.

"The relationship between the Crown Prince and the King's Uncle should be much more harmonious now, but the Crown Prince is a cruel person after all. The King's Uncle is his relative. For the sake of his own rights, he can even disregard his uncle's life. How can such a person become the future of our Great Yan?"

Understanding what she meant, Yuwen Honghao smiled.

"Yes, if you ask me, the behavior of the prince's uncle is more like that of a monarch, who is tolerant. If it were someone else, would they be able to accept their relatives doing such a thing? But he doesn't care, which shows that he is determined in his heart!" (End of this chapter)
