"Your Majesty, absolutely not!"

The National Teacher was the first to step forward, speaking with great seriousness and concern.

"Your Majesty, I believe this action is absolutely unacceptable. At this time, we should appease the daughter of the Northern Guardian King, rather than sentencing her to death... Otherwise, the Northern Three Provinces will inevitably become unstable, affecting the prosperity of our Great Qin and the stability of our nation."

The National Teacher was truly worried. The daughter of the Northern Guardian King had already become an extremely unstable factor after losing her father.

If she were to be sentenced to death, it would be forcing her to rebel!

The National Teacher couldn't imagine how angry Jiang Luoshen would be upon learning that her father had been wrongfully imprisoned and she herself had been poisoned to death.

It was likely that she would rebel on the spot, causing chaos.

By then, not only would the Northern Provinces rebel, but the Cangyue Kingdom and the Heavenly Essence Kingdom might also take advantage of the situation to invade.

The consequences would be unimaginable.

The National Teacher felt that Your Majesty was not just incompetent, but insane!

After assisting in the court's affairs for so many years, he had never seen such an incompetent act.

"Your Majesty, absolutely not!"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!"

Seeing that the National Teacher had already started speaking, the other ministers also stepped forward to offer their advice.

Qin Mu sat on the dragon throne, expressionless, coldly staring at them.

He certainly knew that this action was inappropriate.

But this was exactly what Qin Mu wanted.

[Ding~ Detected that the host disregarded the advice of the ministers and insisted on sentencing the daughter of the Northern Guardian King, the future Luck Empress, to death. This has taken incompetence to a new level. Reward: Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon - Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar!]

[Ding~ Detected that the host publicly executed the Minister of Rites, acted arbitrarily, and was cruel. This has earned the reward of incompetence: Nine Saint Realm Puppets!]

After listening to the system's words, Qin Mu was momentarily stunned.

Saint Realm Puppets?

Qin Mu's eyes suddenly lit up.

These Saint Realm Puppets were really good things!

With these puppets protecting him, even if he encountered a Saint Realm expert, he would be able to withstand the attack.

As for the Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon - Heaven-Devouring Demon Jar, that went without saying.

It was said to be the Emperor Weapon of the ruthless Great Emperor, capable of devouring all things, even other Emperor Weapons, possessing unfathomable power.

It should be noted that even the current Great Qin Dynasty only had one Quasi-Emperor weapon.

Qin Mu's heart burned with excitement.

He didn't expect that just by making a few incompetent acts, he would be able to obtain an Emperor Weapon, and one that was even more powerful than the average Emperor Weapon.

This was a great gain!

However, Qin Mu also understood that it was likely because Jiang Luoshen was the future Luck Empress that he received such a powerful reward.

So Qin Mu didn't think he could rest easy.

Anyone referred to as the Luck Empress must be the protagonist among protagonists, destined to defy fate.

Especially with the terrifying identity of being the daughter of the Northern Guardian King, she was even more difficult to deal with.

Such a Luck Empress must not be underestimated.

But regardless, at this stage, having these two rewards already satisfied him.

And Qin Mu believed that with the system, as long as he continued to make incompetent acts, the Luck Empress would not be able to cause too much trouble.

On the contrary, he could use Jiang Luoshen's identity to help him carry out various incompetent actions and gain even more powerful rewards.

The so-called Luck Empress would eventually become his experience treasure.

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Qin Mu's lips.

He turned his head, his indifferent gaze falling upon the courtiers, and said, "What's the matter? Do you ministers think that my decision is wrong?"

Upon hearing this, everyone trembled.

They hurriedly knelt down and trembled as they spoke, "We ministers have no ulterior motives. It's just that the Northern Guardian King was a loyal minister of our Great Qin, with great achievements. Your Majesty's actions are truly..."

"Your Majesty..." The National Teacher smiled bitterly.

"Although the Northern Guardian King had secret dealings with other countries, he is already dead now. If you consider his past merits, please spare his family. This way, you can also maintain a good reputation..."

The other ministers also pleaded for mercy on behalf of the daughter of the Northern Guardian King.

In recent years, there have been frequent battles between the Northern Guardian King and the Ash Moon Dynasty in the northern region, with remarkable achievements.

They have all received the protection of the Northern Guardian King and have great admiration for him.

And the Northern Guardian King himself has won the hearts of the military and the people. Now that the Northern Guardian King has suffered a great calamity, they also feel a sense of sorrow.

Qin Mu's gaze slowly moved to the face of the national teacher, and he said lightly, "Are you questioning my judgment, national teacher?"

The national teacher was taken aback and shook his head with a bitter smile, saying, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Qin Mu nodded, "You make a valid point. The Northern Guardian King has indeed made remarkable contributions, and we cannot disregard his life..."

As soon as these words fell, the national teacher and others immediately felt a sense of joy.

As long as Your Majesty is willing to spare the Northern Guardian King's mansion, this crisis will finally be resolved.

However, their smiles froze on their faces as soon as they appeared.

"Since that's the case..."

Qin Mu said indifferently, "Then let his lineage disappear completely! From now on, the Great Qin Dynasty will no longer have the Northern Guardian King's mansion!"

After speaking, Qin Mu left without paying any attention to the sudden change in the faces of the national teacher and others.

It was only after Qin Mu had completely left.

The people looked at each other and then turned their gaze to the national teacher.

The national teacher sighed and said, "Your Majesty intends to purge the Northern Guardian King's faction..."

The other ministers remained silent.

In their view, Your Majesty's intentions were clear. He clearly wanted to take this opportunity to eliminate the Northern Guardian King's faction and completely remove them from the power core.

"But... by doing so, Your Majesty is pushing the Northern Guardian King's faction to the side of the Ash Moon Dynasty, aren't you?" someone frowned and said.

The Northern Guardian King controls millions of soldiers. If they rebel or join forces with the Ash Moon Dynasty in the north, it would be detrimental to the Great Qin Dynasty.

The national teacher, Du Yulin, looked troubled and said, "There is no other way. After all, Your Majesty is no longer willing to listen to our advice."

"Ah..." the ministers all sighed.

Many ministers even quietly cursed Qin Mu's incompetence.

"Your Majesty's actions are truly extremely foolish. It is difficult for the people of the world to be convinced, and it has also chilled the hearts of the veteran generals in the court!"

"Now that the Great Qin Dynasty is surrounded by enemies on all sides, with the southern barbarians becoming restless and the Northern Cangyue and Heavenly Essence Dynasties eyeing us, in such a situation, Your Majesty is still indulging in pleasures and needlessly killing ministers. How can such an incompetent ruler govern the Great Qin Dynasty and lead it to prosperity!"

"Hmph, at this rate, one day, the Great Qin Dynasty will be dragged down by this debauched and incompetent ruler!"

Listening to the discussions of the ministers in the court, Du Yulin felt worried and couldn't help but say, "Colleagues, please be cautious with your words."

However, as soon as these words were spoken, they did not receive the support of the ministers.

Instead, some ministers angrily accused him.

Du Yulin felt a sense of desolation in his heart, but he also understood that the Great Qin Dynasty was already facing internal and external troubles.

At this moment,

Sun Scale King Qin Shijing spoke leisurely, "Alright, everyone can voice their grievances when they return. We must be cautious with our words in the court."

His words instantly quieted the previously noisy hall.

After Qin Mu left, Sun Scale King held the highest position in the entire hall.

Moreover, in recent years, Sun Scale King's achievements and accomplishments were seen by all the ministers.

He was much better than the incompetent ruler, so the ministers showed much respect towards Sun Scale King.

Sun Scale King Qin Shijing swept his gaze over the ministers, taking in the expressions on their faces, and then smiled faintly.

"Now that the court session is over, let's all disperse."

With that, he turned and walked out of the hall.

Seeing this, the ministers also closed their mouths and left the hall without saying a word.

Du Yulin glanced at the empty hall, let out a long sigh, and also walked out of the hall.

...

Soon after,

The news of the Northern Guardian King's intention to rebel and his execution in prison spread throughout Chang'an City like wildfire.

And the speed of the spread was so fast that even the common people heard about it.

The entire city was in an uproar.
