I, Kiriko, the Cheater

The prefect of Donghe City fell into deep thought.

"Tong character with green background? There is no prefect and general named Tong in the empire, so it seems that Heishan City was indeed captured by rebels, but where did these rebels come from? Why was Heishan City captured so easily , and where did the former prefect of Heishan City go?"

The housekeeper did not answer the prefect's words.

"Master Taishou, what should we do now? If the gang of rebels attack..."

This housekeeper was not a bandit who followed the prefect before, but was recruited from Donghe City after he became the prefect, so he must have been a little timid.

Seeing the butler's cowardly look, the governor of Donghe City said displeasedly.

"What are you panicking about? Look at your appearance. A few rebels have scared you like this. How is it right? If I guessed correctly, a mutiny has probably occurred in Montenegro."

"mutiny?"

"Think about it, there are 1 local troops in Montenegro. Although the local troops are not as good as the Border Army and the Guards, they are at least [-]. How could they be captured without even sending out a call for help? There are so many thieves, and they besieged Heishan City, unable to send out fast horses, at least igniting the wolf smoke and using the wolf smoke as a warning, this can always be done, right?"

"The prefect, what do you mean..."

"The only explanation is that the problem lies within Heishan City. I suspect that the local army in Heishan City may be dissatisfied with some actions of the prefect of Heishan City, so a mutiny occurred."

"The prefect is wise, what should we do?"

"Quickly gather people and prepare to suppress the rebellion, and send people to the imperial capital to report the matter."

"Master Taishou, why did you send someone to the imperial capital?"

"What kind of stupid questions are you asking? If you don't send someone to the imperial capital to report, what if the emperor thinks that we sent troops to Heishan City because of our ulterior motives? At that time, yellow mud will fall off the crotch, and it will be shit or shit."

"The prefect is wise, I can't make it, I'll do it now."

Chapter 255 The Little Emperor and Minister Ernest

==============================

The imperial capital, the imperial palace, and the audience hall.

The magnificent audience hall is the place where the emperor handles the affairs of the court, but above the court hall, it looks extremely deserted.

Apart from the little emperor sitting in the high position, there were actually only seven courtiers under the emperor's throne.

Six of the seven people were from the Minister's Faction, while the rest kneeling on the ground were civil servants from the Conscience Faction.

Wearing a crown suit, holding a scepter, and sitting on the throne, the little emperor said coldly to the civil servants of the Conscience faction who were kneeling on the ground.

"Internal Affairs Officer Sauer, because of the crime of arguing about my policy and delaying government affairs, I sentenced you to a terrible punishment."

The so-called bull-split torture is to tie five cows to the limbs and neck of the victim. Because horses are sometimes used, this torture is also called five horses.

When they heard that Sauer was sentenced to be tortured, even the standing ministers couldn't help but feel a chill.

In fact, Sauer just proposed to the little emperor that he hoped that the little emperor could go out of the palace, go outside to see more, see the suffering of the people with his own eyes, and listen to the voice of the people more.

Just for this, he was going to be sentenced to the death penalty.

"Is that all right, Minister?"

The little emperor turned his head and said to the people behind him.

Hiding in the shadow behind the little emperor, a fat and tall figure walked out. This man wore a strange headband on his head and two rings on his hands. He looked like a nouveau riche.

He tore a piece of meat steak with both hands, and his hands and face were covered with oil.

"Your Majesty is wise, you are really a generation of Mingjun."

"Is it meat again? You can really eat it, don't you feel tired?"

"It must be eaten early while the meat is still fresh to be delicious."

No matter the tone or demeanor of the conversation between the two, it was as sleepy as a conversation between colleagues and friends who happened to meet in a restaurant.

The little emperor, who casually sentenced a person to be tortured, didn't seem to realize that what he said just now had actually deprived a person of his life.

Seeing that the little emperor had a happy conversation with the minister, Shaoer shouted with grief and indignation: "Your Majesty, you have been deceived by the minister! I hope you can listen to the voice of the people with your own ears!"

"Hey, minister, he is still saying that kind of thing." The little emperor glanced at Sauer, then turned to look at the minister.

The minister smiled: "I must have lost my mind."

"Well, after all, you have never missed what you said since before." Seeing the minister's smile, the little emperor also changed into a brisk tone.

It was as if I had done a good deed inadvertently, and was one step closer to the representative of the good emperor in my mind.

"Master Saul."

Following the minister's words, the guards sent by the minister in the palace quickly stepped forward and restrained Sauer, "This is really a sad parting."

Among the positions in the empire, the head of civil servants is the minister, and the head of military officers is the general.

Today's general Bude, because he abides by the ancient teachings and does not interfere in politics, only tries his best to protect the civil servants of the conscience faction. Therefore, Minister Ornest is calling the wind and rain in this court, making this court corrupt.

As an internal affairs officer, Sauer really couldn't stand it, and took the initiative to ask for admonition to the little emperor.

It's a pity that he was punished by the little emperor who had been deceived by the ministers.

Even though he was a civil servant of conscience who was protected by General Bude, it was not the minister who gave the order to him, but the little emperor. Even if General Bude, who was loyal to the royal family, knew about it, he could only stand by and watch.

"Your Majesty, if this continues, this country with a thousand-year history will..."
