Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba.

Dharma Ba took a deep breath, his expression changed slightly, and after pondering for a long time, he said, "This accusation is indeed very serious, but expecting the Emperor to decree to kill Tuotuo is impossible. In fact, if it’s only these charges, the Emperor might temporarily dismiss him, give him a warning, and he might not even leave the court."

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba and said, "The Emperor shows such favoritism to Tuotuo? Even these won’t result in his death?"

Dharma Ba replied, "The Emperor’s reliance on Tuotuo is an unfathomable dependence."

After hearing this, Chen Jie contemplated for a long time and spoke, "What if we add the Eight Kings’ Biography?"

Hmm?!

Upon hearing these four words, Dharma Ba was suddenly stunned, looking at Chen Jie with shock on his face: "Eight Kings’ Biography, you still have the Eight Kings’ Biography!"

Chen Jie looked at Dharma Ba and said, "That’s right, if the Emperor can’t make a decision, then I’ll force the kings to give him resolve!"

"This time, let’s see how the Emperor decides!"

Chen Jie said, looking at Dharma Ba’s surprised expression.

...

At this moment in the Imperial Palace, Wang Baobao adjusted his clothing, walked up the steps to the Jinluan Palace, crossed the threshold, and saw all the court officials looking at him with an invisible pressure weighing down on him.

Wang Baobao took a deep breath, bearing the pressure of all the court officials’ eyes, directly came to the front of the Jinluan Palace, then knelt down on both knees.

"I, Commander of the White Deer Army Fifth Army, Kuokuo Timur, pay my respects to Your Majesty, Long live the Emperor!"

"Raise your head!"

The Emperor looked at Wang Baobao at this moment and said, Wang Baobao raised his head, and the Emperor looked at him and asked, "Why not stay in Jiangnan properly, what are you doing in the Great Capital?"

"I want to accuse the current Left Minister Tuotuo of disregarding the Royal Law, secretly weakening the vassals, and intending to rebel!"

Wow~

Upon hearing this accusation, the entire hall was in an uproar, everyone was surprised and looked at Tuotuo, and Tuotuo was being watched by everyone, maintaining a calm expression without a word.

After hearing this, the Emperor pondered for a moment, looked at Wang Baobao, and said, "Kuokuo, do you know what you’re saying? You’re accusing the current Left Minister. Do you know what the consequence would be if you made a false accusation?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Baobao said, "Your Majesty, if I falsely accuse, I am willing to die to repay the crime."

As soon as Wang Baobao said this, the civil and military officials below were all surprised and looked at Wang Baobao, then turned their gaze to the Emperor.

The Emperor looked at Wang Baobao and said, "Fine, today I’ll let you accuse, but you won’t make wild claims without evidence, will you? Is there evidence?"

Wang Baobao directly replied, "I have evidence. Currently, all eighty-one prefectures of the Jiangnan Five Routes have been taken over by Tuotuo’s men, and six of the seven routes of the White Deer Army have been taken over by Tuotuo. Additionally, the most important point is that my father, the National Pillar of Daqian, Ruyang King has been arrested by Tuotuo and is now detained in the Great Buddha Temple!"

"What! Even Ruyang King has been arrested?"

After hearing Wang Baobao’s words, everyone was astonished and didn’t know what to say, while the Emperor also took a deep breath, still digesting the shock brought by Wang Baobao.

At this moment, Tuotuo’s staunch subordinate, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I believe that Kuokuo’s words are completely fabricated. He must have been instructed by traitors to come and falsely accuse the Lord Prime Minister!"

The Emperor frowned and looked at him, saying, "Fabricated? Why do you say it is fabricated, dear minister?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Personnel replied, "Your Majesty, what kind of person is Ruyang King? Ranked tenth on the Heavenly List, especially within the army, even those ranked higher on the Heavenly List would find it difficult to capture him. But Lord Tuotuo doesn’t have someone capable of capturing Ruyang King, yet he claims the Left Minister captured him. How is this possible? This is completely slander!"

"Please, Your Majesty, investigate thoroughly!"

After hearing this, the Emperor nodded lightly. He was well aware of his elder brother’s strength, and thinking of this, he looked at Wang Baobao and said, "Do you have anything else to say?"

Wang Baobao replied, "Your Majesty, Tuotuo falsely transmitted the Holy Decree, claiming it was Your Majesty who invited him to the capital. My father is loyal to Your Majesty, without any suspicion, and upon returning from Bright Peak, followed him to the capital without hesitation. Upon entering the city, I didn’t expect him to detain people, and then he decreed to seize military control over Jiangnan."

"Our Ruyang Prefecture guards Jiangnan; my adoptive father taught us the first thing is loyalty to the Emperor and patriotism. Our Ruyang Prefecture guards Jiangnan according to the Grand Ancestor’s rules, serving to defend the borders for Your Majesty. If Your Majesty does not need us to guard the borders, a single decree is all that’s needed for us to immediately hand over military power, but Tuotuo cannot control military power."

"Tuotuo now stands alone beneath one person and above ten thousand as the Lord Prime Minister of Daqian. If he controls military power too, with civil and military unity, then whose realm is this exactly, Tuotuo’s or Your Majesty’s? Your Majesty, please reconsider!"

Wang Baobao addressed the Emperor, and upon hearing these words, the Emperor’s face turned gloomy as he looked at Tuotuo and angrily shouted, "Tuotuo, do you confess?"

After hearing the Emperor’s words, Tuotuo sighed in his heart, knowing that the situation was hopeless, he immediately knelt and said, "Everything I have done is entirely for the stability of Daqian! Although vassals guarding the nation is indeed national policy, but the present is not the past, rebellious factions are rising, and the vassal’s separate reigns cannot effectively eliminate the rebels."

"Thus, I thought of unifying the military forces, letting military and politics be as one. In this way, the stability of the realm is assured, and the rebels can be eradicated. Everything I have done is for Your Majesty, for Daqian!"

Tuotuo said, kneeling.

After hearing Tuotuo’s words, the murderous intent in the Emperor’s eyes decreased significantly, and he looked at Tuotuo and said, "You are confused!"
