Chapter 98
With the flames of war raging, Shen Mingze held a large banquet in the palace to invite the soldiers in battle to boost morale.
As the only concubine in the harem, Lin Jiajia naturally also dressed up to attend.
The failures in the past few days have made the emperor lose his original arrogance, his cheeks are thin, and the original aloofness in his eyes has completely turned into anxiety and restlessness at this moment.
This time it was his cronies who took part in the battle. As a member of the emperor's camp, the newly promoted General Chen naturally knew the importance of the beloved concubine wearing a veil to the current emperor.
However, not only Shen Mingze himself, but also the soldiers who are about to enter the field have also been distracted by the defeat of the past few days. If they go to the field like this, the outcome will not be the same as before.
"Your Majesty!" General Chen stood up with firm eyes, "Before we leave, I have a heartfelt request."
Shen Mingze glanced at him: "Say."
"Please..." General Chen paused, and said, "Behead the traitorous concubine before the battle!"
As soon as the words fell, Lin Jiajia could feel the eyes of the audience focused on her.
The men present all had fierce eyes, like man-eating beasts, wishing they could immediately draw their swords and kill themselves.
Presumably, the general's words just fit their wishes.
Shen Mingze tightened his hands and squeezed the emerald wine glass in his hand: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"I just want to be loyal to the country!" General Chen said with force, "If the treacherous concubine is not eliminated for a day, our soldiers will have resentment. How can they fight in battle, and how can they swear allegiance to the king!"
"Bold!"
With a crisp cracking sound, the emerald wine glass was thrown to the ground with force, rolled several times, and broke into several pieces.
"Chen Shaoqin, don't think that there is no one available except you!"
Shen Mingze's eyes were red, and the fierceness and violence in his eyes could no longer be restrained, almost bursting.
General Chen hurriedly knelt down: "I don't dare, I just tell the truth."
"Your Majesty, I agree with General Chen's thoughts."
"The minister also agrees!"
"Sir too!"
For a moment, all the officials knelt together, and a group of people in the hall bowed their heads, as if they were submitting to their emperor, or as if they were using this to force him to make a choice.
Shen Mingze looked at them: "Okay, okay, very good, you are very good!"
He waved his sleeves: "Do you think I dare not kill you all?!"
"I am frightened."
There was another unanimous answer.
"Your Majesty, if a traitorous concubine is not eliminated, it will not be enough to boost morale or anger the common people, Your Majesty!"
Someone popped up from the crowd and let out a loud roar.
Shen Mingze immediately drew his sword, stepped over in a few steps, and raised his hand with a sword.
Bright red blood flowed from the abdomen, and before the man had time to avoid it, he slowly leaned back to the end, his frightened eyes were still wide open, and the people around him were so frightened that they ran away one after another.
"Come on, let's talk!" Shen Mingze sternly said: "What does my failure with you have to do with my beloved concubine!"
There was no sound in the hall again, but no one dared to say a word at this time.
"Drag him down for me, and I will catch all the family members to feed my pets."
Shen Mingze said grimly.
The guards responded, but all the ministers were silent. Everyone knew how tragic the fate of the man's family would be, but no one dared to say a word for him.
"Your Majesty..."
With a soft female voice, Lin Jiajia sighed: "Why bother, Your Majesty, let his family go."
"Traitorous concubine, why do you have to be hypocritical, if it weren't for you, his whole family wouldn't be reduced to this point!"
Someone scolded angrily.
Lin Jiajia was a little speechless, but didn't bother to talk to him, walked straight to Shen Mingze, and grabbed his sleeve: "As the king just said, what does his crime have to do with his wife and daughter, let them go. "
Shen Mingze looked at her for a while, and finally said, "Okay."
Lin Jiajia smiled sweetly, and turned to the ministers who were kneeling on the ground.
"You keep saying that I am a traitorous concubine, and you want to get rid of it quickly, but I want to ask, where does the traitor come from?"
"Traitorous concubine, you confuse your lord, confuse the government, and cause the people such suffering, do you still have the face to ask?"
Lin Jiajia smiled slightly and tore off her veil.
It was about the first time she was seen in front of them.
With a sweet smile, she is all over the country and the city.
This idea came to everyone's minds almost at the same time. They usually heard how beautiful the emperor's concubine was, but they had never seen the real person after hearing so much, so naturally they only regarded it as an exaggeration.
But seeing it now, we can know what is truly beautiful in the world.
"You listed three charges for me, but I would like to hear them one by one. What is it to confuse the emperor, what is it to confuse the government, and how do you make the people suffer?"
Lin Jiajia sat back in her seat, resting her chin on her right hand, and asked with great interest.
Just now the man was clamoring to get rid of her and hurry up, but now his face turned red suspiciously, and his voice stammered: "Traitor, you, since you came, your majesty has been hanging around the harem all day, not interested in political affairs, saying You are wrong to confuse Your Majesty, are you wrong?"
Lin Jiajia laughed softly and said, "Your Majesty is free to stay wherever you like. Besides, Your Majesty is diligent in going to court every day, and only a few days are still in bed because of the wind and cold. Do you mean that you still have to stay in bed if you are sick? Get up and go to court?"
The man blushed and said again: "You brutalized Zhongliang, causing General Funing's daughter to hardly see her father, and General Funing was made bedridden by you, if it wasn't for you, how could the Southern Dynasty come to this point?! "
"The Southern Dynasty is a great country, but a general is dying if he is sick. You still say that it is my problem. Isn't it because you are too incompetent to share your worries?" Lin Jiajia asked seriously.
The man froze for a moment, looked around, saw that no one was speaking for him, he was startled for a long time, and then said sharply: "A few days ago, the people of Yancheng suffered from disasters, but you enjoyed it in the palace, building ponds with jade, Regardless of the safety of the people, this is always your fault, and you say you are not a traitor concubine!"
Lin Jiajia burst out laughing: "When the people are affected by the disaster, the king of Yan is the first to go, and the jade pond in the palace is to be built later. Besides, how to relieve the disaster is the court's business. I am a woman, living in the harem, how can I interfere?"
"You're sophistry! Sophistry! If it weren't for you, how could Yandi turn against you? Look at your foxy face, born like a fairy. In ancient times, there was a Daji who brought disaster to the king, and only the treacherous concubine defeated my Southern Dynasty! If the treacherous concubine is not eliminated, how can I be defeated?" Peace the world, Your Majesty!"
The man groaned for a long time, but couldn't find anything to refute, so he started crying and making a fuss.
Shen Mingze's face turned hard and was about to explode, but Lin Jiajia stood up and said coldly.
"No matter how much you say, you just want me to die. To put it bluntly, why bother trying to find a reason."
All of these people spoke righteously, but it was because the king of Yan, Shen Chengxuan, was playing the name of concubine extermination. As long as she died, if Shen Chengxuan didn't stop, he would turn from the current army of justice into a nameless army of rebels , it is naturally more beneficial to the Southern Dynasty.
