Chapter 334 The Fat Concubine is Extremely Talented; She Speaks 8 Languages (4)
The emperor was frightened and his high fever persisted.
No one knows how Fan Zhong died or why he ended up in the emperor's bedchamber.
However, his corpse offended the emperor, which was a serious crime, and the entire general's mansion was implicated.
The imperial edict arrived quickly: the general's mansion was ransacked, and the entire household was exiled to Ningguta.
"I'm innocent, Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
For them, it was like sitting at home when disaster struck from the sky.
Especially Lady Liu, who didn't sleep all night, knew something big was going to happen when the Emperor summoned Fan Zhong to the palace and he didn't return for a day and a night.
I thought it was that fool Fan Yilan who implicated the General's Mansion, but I never expected that it was Fan Zhong who died!
Seeing all the things in the mansion being moved out, Madam Liu felt extremely distressed.
Fan Mengyuan cried and clung to her mother's arm, "Mother, I don't want to be exiled, please think of something..."
"Your father is gone, what can your mother do?" Liu Shi could only cry, not knowing what else to do.
Fan Siyan clenched his fist angrily and roared, "My father has been stationed on the frontier for many years, sacrificing his life for the country and the people, and making countless contributions. The Emperor treats us like this; he is simply incompetent and tyrannical..."
Liu was terrified by these words and tried to cover Fan Siyan's mouth, but it was too late.
"Insolence!" The censor in charge of confiscating the property said righteously, clasping his hands in a salute. "How dare you show such disrespect to His Majesty! I will report this to His Majesty immediately, and you can expect your entire family to be executed!"
"Your Honor, my son is young and ignorant. Please, Your Honor, show leniency!" Liu knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
But even if she smashed her head, it was no use. The censor kicked her away, saying, "General Fan was merely fulfilling the duties of a subject. He still dared to try and overshadow the emperor. He deserves to have his entire family executed!"
Fan Mengyuan slapped Fan Siyan across the face, yelling, "You've ruined my whole family!"
"I was too angry just now, and I said things without thinking..." Fan Siyan lost his fighting spirit.
Soon, a new imperial edict was issued, changing the exile to beheading at noon!
Until they were all pushed to the execution ground and saw the gleaming machetes, the sheer terror they felt made them tremble all over.
"His Majesty, remembering the loyalty of my Fan family over the years, has shown mercy!"
"Your Majesty, please have mercy!"
Su Dingding sat in his room, tearing apart a chicken leg, watching the live broadcast of their beheading.
"Gangzi, after they die, send them all to the Other Shore Village. Make sure they each hold onto their heads properly, otherwise they won't be able to reincarnate," Su Dingding instructed.
[Hehe, host is brilliant! It's quite lively over at the Other Shore Village, want to take a look?]
"No rush, I'll go after we've gathered everyone." Su Dingding clapped his hands, watching as heads were chopped off one by one.
Now, she is the only one left in the entire general's mansion.
The Emperor launched a massive attack to give her a warning.
Su Dingding didn't care about the lives of these people, but the General's Mansion's property was hers, and she couldn't let it fall into the wrong hands.
As for that scoundrel emperor, he should be made to see clearly who the real master is!
late at night.
The night was dark and the wind was high.
A steady figure moved across the rooftops under the night sky.
Finally, the figure floated lightly onto the roof of the emperor's bedroom.
Lifting the tiles, one after another, one after another.
[Host, you can actually use the main entrance.] Gangzi couldn't stand it anymore.
"No! I insist on going this way!" Su Dingding said stubbornly.
Finally, there was enough space for her to jump.
Unable to control his strength, Su Dingding landed with such force that it created a crater in the ground.
The Emperor opened his eyes. "Who is it?"
“Your Majesty, it is I, Princess Consort Qi.” Su Dingding walked out of the pit.
Upon hearing that familiar voice, the Emperor felt inexplicably nervous. He had ordered the execution of the entire General's family, but he hadn't dared to include her. Why had she still come?
"Your Majesty, I have come to seek justice for all sixty-seven members of my General's Mansion!" Su Dingding took a few more steps forward.
By the dim candlelight, the emperor saw her approaching and quickly stopped her, saying, "Just stand there and talk, I can hear you."
"Then Your Majesty, please give me an explanation right now!" Su Dingding said aggressively.
"Princess Consort Qi, I heard that General Fan went to the Prince's residence to look for you before he disappeared. Perhaps you killed him with your own hands!" The Emperor was panting heavily.
"Your Majesty, don't speak recklessly without evidence. Gossiping can get your tongue cut out." Su Dingding looked up, his eyes already filled with murderous intent.
The emperor was so frightened that he shivered. He then inadvertently saw the silhouette of a dog behind the screen, which terrified him even more.
"I...I have misspoke."
Su Dingding rolled her eyes before bursting into tears again, “The Emperor summoned my father to the palace yesterday. He must have said something to him that led to his death. Now that the General’s Mansion has been ransacked and the entire family has been beheaded, shouldn’t you give me some compensation?”
The Emperor was furious; how dare she blatantly try to steal from him!
"Princess Consort Qi, don't push your luck!"
"Your Majesty, don't forget, I'm only sparing your life temporarily. If I'm displeased, I can take your life at any time," Su Dingding said, brandishing his fist. "Remember what happened to the Empress?"
The emperor shuddered and asked, "What do you want?"
Su Dingding laughed, "It's so refreshing to talk to smart people. You rest, I'll help you draft the decree!"
The Emperor frowned as he looked at Su Dingding's fat back. Wasn't she supposed to be an illiterate good-for-nothing who had never read a single word?
After waiting for a long time, seeing that she still hadn't finished writing, the Emperor sneered inwardly. It seemed that he had worried too much; this Fan Yilan was just a useless bum with some strength!
"Done!" Su Dingding happily picked up the imperial edict, admired it with satisfaction, and handed it to the emperor. "Issue the decree."
The Emperor was stunned when he received the imperial edict. "Princess Consort Qi, how dare you!"
Su Dingding not only demanded all the property confiscated from the General's Mansion, but also ten thousand taels of gold, ten chests of jade and jewelry, and five hundred bolts of silk and satin...
The emperor accepted all the material things, but Su Dingding also asked for a city!
“You’ve only lost some material possessions and a city, but I’ve lost my father and my family!” Su Dingding said righteously.
The emperor's face turned ashen. He wanted to refuse, but then he saw the figure behind the screen move and a head pop out.
The words "Mad Dog" above Gangzi's head were very conspicuous, making people feel intimidated.
"I grant your permission."
We can't risk our lives because of these things, can we?
The Emperor spoke through gritted teeth, but Su Dingding smiled warmly.
"Your Majesty, you've made a good deal this time. With me, the living devil, gone, your life will be much easier. As long as the empire remains, you'll never forget me. We'll meet again!" Su Dingding spun around and leaped onto the roof.
She didn't control her strength well, and large pieces of roof tiles fell off the roof after she hit it.
After a long while, the dust settled in the emperor's palace. He raised his head and looked at the starry sky.
A gentle breeze brushed his face, and as if he had made a decision, his gaze hardened.
This scourge cannot be allowed to live any longer; she must be killed!
