Chapter 5 — King, It's Not Done! Princess... Princess has slapped Your Majesty!

Behind him. Bui Truong lifted a brocade box and entered the palace. The box is opened. Inside is a bright yellow holy book. The Queen Mother's face immediately changed. The little emperor also stiffened. Tieu Thua Uyen did not immediately open the decree. He just asked:

"The Queen Mother still remembers..."

"Is this something?"

The Queen Mother's lips were pale.

"Who doesn't know?"

Tieu Thua Uyen smiled slightly.

"Night Immortal Emperor is seriously ill."

"The Queen Mother is also present at the dragon bed."

"The Emperor once said..."

"If the young lord is wise."

"Then this king is the main father."

"If the young lord is lenient."

"Then this king has the right to abolish it."

"That day, the Queen Mother cried and nodded."

"Saying that everything must take the country first."

He raised his eyes.

"Now..."

"Don't accept it again?"

The Queen Mother held tightly to the corner of the table. Finger joints turn white. The little emperor was startled.

"Mother..."

"He lied, right?"

The Queen Mother did not answer. That silence. Heavier than any sentence. Tham Minh Chau sat down on the ground. The golden bracelet collided with the blue tile floor. Made a shrill sound. The little emperor's face turned pale little by little. He suddenly pointed straight at me.

"It's all because of you!"

"If it weren't for you..."

"Uncle Huang will not do that!"

Tieu Thua Uyen's eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Slap mouth."

The commander of the Forbidden Army personally stepped forward. The little emperor's eyes widened.

"You dare!"

A slap fell. Even heavier than my slap just now. The little emperor fell back onto his bed. The corner of the mouth was bleeding. The Queen Mother shouted:

"Stop!"

Tieu Thua Uyen didn't even bother to look at her.

"He insulted my king's princess once."

"This king will hit him once."

"Who begged for me?"

"Partner in crime."

The Queen Mother's words were stuck in her throat. Tieu Thua Uyen stepped in front of the jade step. Bowing his head to look at the young man who had been elevated to the throne since childhood.

"Tieu Canh."

"You've been sitting in this chair for three years."

"First thing learned..."

"Not honoring ancestors."

"Not protecting the people."

"It's not like using sages."

"It's about tolerating the concubine."

"Humiliating my wife."

"Using the word heaven to oppress others."

The little emperor covered his face. Only fear remained in his eyes.

"Your Majesty..."

"I know it's wrong."

Tieu Thua Uyen's face did not change at all.

"It's late."

He turned around. Looking towards Tong Chinh Tu Khanh and the Cabinet ministers kneeling outside the palace.

"Draft."

The ministers prostrated themselves on the ground. The voice trembled.

"Please give your orders, Your Majesty."

Tieu Thua Uyen held my hand. Let me stand next to him. In front of everyone in the palace. He raised his voice.

"Emperor Tieu Canh."

"Seven virtues."

"Seven doubts."

"Not qualified to inherit the ancestral temple."

"From today."

"Dismissed as Lam Xuyen Vuong."

"Move out of the imperial city."

"Detention in Nam Uyen."

The little emperor was limp on the dragon's bed. It's like the soul has been stripped away. The Queen Mother's eyes were dark. I almost couldn't stand. But Tieu Thua Uyen hasn't stopped yet. He looked at the dragon. The voice was steady, almost cold.

"As for the successor."

"Tomorrow at court."

"This king will personally decide."

Candles in Thien Thu Palace burned until midnight. When Emperor Tieu Canh was deposed, the Imperial Army pulled him from his throne. He was still staring at me. In those eyes. Also there is fear. Perhaps ever since. He never thought. There will be a day when I will be pulled down by someone else. The Queen Mother held tightly to the corner of the table. The voice trembled.

"Tieu Thua Uyen."

"Today if you dare to abolish the emperor."

"In the future, history books will definitely scold you as a deranged thief."

Tieu Thua Uyen calmly looked at her.

"History books are written by living people."

"Dead people cannot scold this king."

The Queen Mother's face turned pale. The ministers in the palace bowed their heads even lower. I stand next to Tieu Thua Uyen. His palm was still held. His hands are very cold. But steady as a mountain. History Bui Truong finished writing the decree abolishing the emperor. Then offered it in front of Tieu Thua Uyen. He didn't even look. Directly close the Regent Vuong seal. The Queen Mother lost her voice.

"You don't even use jade sister?"

Tieu Thua Uyen raised his eyes.

"After the audience tomorrow."

"Of course I will use it."

"And tonight's edict."

"It's the king's order."

"The army is forbidden to accept."

"Tong Chinh Tu admitted."

"Cabinet received."

"That's enough."

The Queen Mother looked around in all directions. No one dared to speak for her. Until now. She just understood. For many years, I sat on the phoenix seat. Next to me. There isn't even a single person who can actually use it. Those people feared her. It's because she is the Queen Mother. They were even more afraid of Tieu Thua Uyen. Because military power is in his hands. The government is in his hands. Even the imperial city gate. Also in his hands. Tieu Canh was dragged to the front door of the palace.
