Fellow Daoist, your script is really good.

Shiraba Ye never says anything, always remaining calm, eating and drinking as usual.

But when Bai Yeye starts to speak and makes a move in the open, he will kill her with one blow!

On the third day, a count's property was confiscated.

The earl whose property was confiscated was the Earl of Jinghong.

It was also one of the list of earls that Su Li gave to Bai Yeye.

Su Li was merely telling Bai Yeye that Jinghongbo was colluding with the Headless Kingdom, back when the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom sent troops to the Headless Kingdom.

Jinghongbo sold intelligence to the Headless Kingdom, thereby obtaining a huge amount of spirit stones.

However, Su Li's letter to Bai Yeye did not mention any clues about the Jinghong Earl's collusion with the Headless Kingdom.

In other words, the evidence was extremely difficult to find, and Su Li even felt that the other party had already destroyed it.

But unexpectedly, Shiraba found the evidence.

The person who betrayed Jinghongbo was his wife.

Su Li learned about this from a casual conversation between Xiao Hua and Xiao Tao.

When this matter was mentioned, both Xiaohua and Xiaotao looked rather heavy-hearted, as if they were deeply saddened.

It's quite a strange story.

Uncle Jinghong was very greedy, but not at all lustful.

On the contrary, Jinghongbo was very devoted.

Jinghongbo only married one wife and did not take any concubines.

But it was his wife who betrayed Jinghongbo.

Jinghongbo's wife secretly visited the Fifth Princess's residence and handed over all the evidence of her husband's collusion with the Headless Kingdom to Baiyeye.

As for the reason.

That's because the wife of the Earl of Jinghong was once a princess of a fallen kingdom.

The man who led the army to destroy the enemy country was none other than the Earl of Jinghong. It was because of this military achievement that the Earl of Jinghong was granted the title of Earl.

When Jinghongbo stormed the palace, he was captivated by the princess's beauty. After abducting her and taking her back to the Wanyao Kingdom, he requested the Demon Emperor to bestow this woman upon him.

The Demon Emperor immediately agreed.

Trading a princess of a fallen kingdom for a more loyal subject—there's nothing more worthwhile than that.

After marrying the Earl of Jinghong, this princess of a fallen kingdom always kept to herself and never showed any desire for revenge.

This princess of a fallen kingdom devoted herself to her husband and children, living a peaceful and stable life.

Jinghongbo also felt that this princess of a fallen kingdom was safe and sound. In fact, as they spent more time together, Jinghongbo grew to love his wife even more, and their feelings for each other deepened.

But little did they know, Jinghongbo's wife had never given up on revenge.

This time, Bai Yeye wants to abolish the hereditary system of royal titles, which is the best opportunity for the other side.

Jinghongbo is dead.

This is treason, a very serious crime.

No matter how great Jinghongbo's previous achievements were, it was all for naught.

Jinghongbo was stripped of his sword by the Demon Emperor.

Without hesitation, Uncle Jinghong accepted the sword.

It is said that before Jinghongbo committed suicide, he begged the Demon Emperor to spare his wife.

Listen to the other party's request.

The Demon Emperor is very complex.

Without waiting for the Demon Emperor's refusal, Jinghongbo slashed his own neck with that long sword.

Fresh blood splattered everywhere.

Looking at the dead and transformed Jinghongbo on the ground, the Demon Emperor sighed.

Originally, the Earl of Jinghong's act of betraying his country should have resulted in the extermination of his entire clan.

However, the Demon Emperor did not do so.

The Demon Emperor, mindful of Lady Jinghong's merit in exposing the crime, decided to offset her transgressions with the confiscation of the Jinghong Marquis's estate and demote all its inhabitants to commoners.

Lady Jinghong accepted the imperial edict and expressed her gratitude for the favor.

However, the next morning, when Jinghongbo's eldest son went to find his mother, he found her hanging herself in her room.

Lady Jinghong left a letter: "Mother's great revenge has been achieved, but what she owes your father, she will repay in the Yellow Springs."

When the letter left by Lady Jinghong was circulated, the people of the entire Demon Capital had very mixed feelings upon hearing it.

Similarly, Shiraba's feelings were very complicated.

The Demon Emperor ordered that Jinghongbo and his wife be buried together.

Shiraba also attended the funeral.

Shiraba stood in front of the two tombstones for a very long time.

No one knew what Bai Yeye was thinking, and no one bothered her.

After removing the Earl of Jinghong, Bai Yeye eliminated another marquis and an earl on the third-to-last day before submitting the "List of Abolished Hereditary Titles".

This title of king or noble can actually be attributed to Su Li's efforts.

When Su Li was reading this script about a nobleman, the script system was very helpful, directly telling Su Li where the evidence of the other party's crimes lay.

As for the other two earls, Su Li gave Bai Yeye a general direction, and then Bai Yeye had to find the evidence on his own.

But Shiraba Ye did it.

At this point, all the kings and earls on the list that Su Li had given to Bai Yeye were removed by Bai Yeye.

None of these people had a good ending; they were all subjected to confiscation of their property and beheading.

As for their families, the women were all sent to the juvenile wards, and the men were almost all exiled.

Among these people, the luckiest one should be Jinghongbo.

Although Jinghongbo died, his family was saved.

In this way, only one king and three other earls remain.

And in the end, there were less than three days left.

However, Su Li was not worried at all, because Bai Yeye's influence was too great now.

Even if Bai Yeye were to designate a king and three earls and abolish their hereditary titles, no one would dare to say anything.

To a large extent, Shiraba's political career will not end.

There's no other reason than that Bai Yeye had beheaded far too many kings and nobles in just one month, and all of them were beheaded in a way that was justified and reasonable.

All of this is thanks to Shiraba Ye!

On the penultimate day, a prince and two earls secretly came to the Fifth Princess's residence to confess their crimes.

Regarding what these two people did, Su Li could only say that they were very clever and lucky.

Because Shiraba Ye was already planning to investigate them.

Even if no results are found in the end, they will definitely be abolished and their hereditary status will be permanently revoked.

However, if Bai Yeye takes the initiative to abolish their hereditary status, he will not let them off so easily.

In fact, Bai Yeye is very stubborn. Now that she has started investigating, she is determined to expose them completely!

Bai Ye nodded in response to the other party's frankness, indicating that she understood.

On the last day, Bai Yeye went to court with the list of those whose hereditary titles were to be abolished.

The Demon Emperor made Bai Yeye read it aloud himself.

Bai Yeye read out all the names of those who were dead and those who were not.

Bai Yeye's voice wasn't loud, but it resonated throughout the entire hall.

Among the names mentioned, people recalled the events that Shiraba had stirred up over the past month.

Looking at Bai Yeye's slender back.

Everyone was somewhat dazed.

They had to admit it.

now.

White Leaf Shepherd's Purse.

Fifth Princess.

He had already fully entered the imperial court, and his position was now unshakeable.

At this point, the Fifth Princess was already qualified to seize the throne.

After Bai Yeye finished reading all the names, the entire hall fell into a silence that lasted for five breaths.

"Marquis Xu, Earl Suguang, Earl Fusheng, does the Director of the Verification and Conferment Office have any objection to the abolition of your hereditary titles?"

Finally, the Demon Emperor spoke slowly, breaking the silence of the hall.

"We have no objection!"

The three knelt and kowtowed, showing no intention of retaliating.

"In that case, do you gentlemen have anything else to report?"

The Demon Emperor surveyed the entire audience. All the ministers stood still, their feet rooted to the spot, not moving an inch.

The Demon Emperor knew that this was the end.

The deposed princes had no objections, and the ministers did not take the opportunity to attack Ye Ye; everything was settled.

"In that case, let's adjourn the court."

The Demon Emperor rose, waved his sleeves, and turned to leave.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

The officials bowed respectfully as they saw him off.

After the Demon Emperor left, everyone's attention was focused on Bai Yeye.

Without saying another word, Bai Yeye turned and left under the watchful eyes of the assembled officials.

Bai Yeye's steps became more and more firm, and behind him were the eyes of all the ministers in the court, as well as the princes kneeling below the imperial steps.

Chapter 694 It's because you failed to protect her! (4000 words)

After the morning court session ended, the Demon Emperor immediately returned to his study.

The Demon Emperor was a workaholic. He would usually sit in the Imperial Study for a whole day, and even when he ate, he would read memorials while eating.

Unless it is a meal with the princes.

However, once these princes grew up, they would no longer eat with the Demon Emperor.

For the Demon King, the rest of his leisure time was spent playing with his daughter.

But now his daughter has grown up, has her own goals, and has her own life.

So after losing his only source of relaxation, the Demon Emperor basically spent all day in the Imperial Study.

What's even more outrageous is that if the Demon Emperor suddenly felt like favoring a particular concubine, he would summon her to the Imperial Study.

After entering the "wise man mode," he continued to get up and review memorials.

If a mortal emperor did this, he would likely overwork himself to death, but the Demon Emperor would not, after all, he was of pure Bai Ze bloodline and was a powerful being in the Ascension Realm.

If people were to die from overwork like this, that would be ridiculous.

"His Majesty......"
