The emperor's plan: to rule the world

Chapter 655
"She won't think that you are people of temperament, she won't think about why you obeyed her orders, and she won't think about whether there is any hidden secret in it, she will only think about whether this palace told you to do so, Why did I ask you to do this..."

Qin Shu's expression was indifferent, even if he was angry, his tone was still as calm as a gentle breeze and drizzle, without any coldness, but the more they were like this, the more uneasy they felt.

"The lord will think, is this because I have resentment towards her, is it because I am dissatisfied with her in my heart, what is this palace doing? Is it a demonstration against her, is it because I want to rebel , are you not willing to succumb to others and want that supreme position?"

"You are trying to force Ben Gong to be divorced from the Lord, to force her to be jealous and alienate Ben Gong, to force Ben Gong to become a rebellious minister who disdains even himself, and who embraces the army for self-protection and self-respect for various reasons."

Qin Shu lowered his eyes to look at them, and slowly said word by word: "The reason for this may also be to protect you who are obedient and obedient, and provoke you who want to kill you."

Everyone's face was pale, as if they couldn't bear the weight of his words, they all bent down, pressed their foreheads tightly to the ground, and silently pleaded guilty.

"My lord, my lord, has been by her side for 13 years. She has never been wronged in the slightest. Carefully guard her and hold her. What I have never done, you have done absolutely nothing."

"My subordinates are wrong."

In the silence, no one knew who said, "But it's up to His Highness to deal with it."

Qin Shu looked at them for a long time, then smiled lightly and said, "When you deal with you, you are all thinking of this palace, and you were punished by the Lord for your injustice. If this palace punishes you again, wouldn't it appear that this palace is too unkind?"

He walked up to them, looked back at the closed door, and smiled softly: "It's my fault, it's my fault for not teaching you well, not restraining you well. I shouldn't have... Leaving the mansion without permission from the master, this will cause her to ask you about the whereabouts of the palace."

"It's me who has no way to control her and acts recklessly... I will not punish you, I will accompany you to receive the punishment."

As soon as the words fell, he had already lifted his robe, faced the closed door, and knelt down on his knees.

Everyone's face changed suddenly: "Your Highness!"

"No, Your Highness!"

"Your Highness—"

Kneeling in silence for several hours until their knees were so painful that they became numb and completely lost consciousness. Their faces did not change a bit from the beginning to the end, but they completely changed because of his action.

Regret flashed across the pair of eyes that were as silent as a pool of stagnant water, and anxious expressions inevitably appeared on their faces. Looking at the figure kneeling in front of them, the harshest punishment failed to make them bend over. The lower spine finally bent down completely.

The hoarse voice was particularly clear at night: "This subordinate knows his mistake, please think twice, Your Highness."

"Your Highness, please think twice."

Qin Shu turned his head to look at them, and said in a cold and unkind voice, "You woke up the Lord, do you want me to add an iron chain under your knees?"

There was no sound in the moonlit yard for an instant, only the lightened and almost imperceptible breathing sound could be heard.

They all knew Qin Shu's uncompromising temperament, and they would not doubt it. If they said one more word, their highness would be more ruthless to him.

This night, the shadow guards who had been following Qin Shu had learned an unforgettable lesson. They watched the figure standing in front of them, still as still as a mountain.

It was silent until dawn.
