Chapter 6 — Ky Y Lac
"Speaking of reform, this king also has something he wants to discuss with His Majesty and his colleagues." "The current royal bureaucracy is too old, with evils piling up, this king intends to reorganize the Six Ministries, cut down on idlers, reform the appointment of officials." Amid the oppressive silence, the Little Emperor gritted his teeth and slowly asked each word. "How do you intend to reform?" Liang Kien Son smiled coldly, gently shaking the wine cup in his hand. His gaze was almost undisguised, landing straight on the Little Emperor's dragon robe. "Of course, someone with ability should sit in." Those words were too clear. In today's court, who is more powerful than Luong Kien Son? He clearly wanted to use the name of reform to turn the entire court into his own world. But more deeply, it was that he hated the word "Regent" and wanted to go one step further. The Little Emperor opened his mouth, large drops of sweat rolling down from his temples. Right at that moment, the atmosphere was as tense as a piano string. Outside the palace, the sound of steady footsteps suddenly sounded. The door of the main hall was forcefully pushed open, and a group of forbidden soldiers wearing black armor rushed in. In the blink of an eye, everyone in the palace was surrounded. Amidst the shrill screams of the female relatives and the chaotic scene, a tall man in battle armor slowly entered the main hall. It was Due Vuong, another younger brother of the First Emperor. As soon as Luong Kien Son clearly saw the person coming, he immediately slammed the wine cup on the table. "Luong Duc, you dare to arbitrarily lead the army to storm into the private palace, wanting to create a rebellion?" "Speaking of rebellion, how can this king be compared to the Regent King?" He took out a thick file from his chest, raised his hand and opened it. "Luong Kien Son, you embezzled three hundred thousand taels of military provisions at the border, buying and selling officials in a total of twenty-seven cases, committing a crime." harmed Trung Luong, now there is an intention to commit treason, all crimes have been confirmed by evidence. He glanced around, only to discover that all the confidants he had brought with him had long been controlled by the forbidden army. "You fabricated evidence! Accused of injustice! Luong Duc, you are just a prince, who gave you that courage?" "I gave it to you." The Little Emperor stood up from his reliance, staring at Luong Kien Son. "Your uncle... really disappointed me." Luong Kien Son died silently. He never dreamed that the weak little emperor who was always held in his hands would one day dare to stand up and protest. The Imperial Army immediately advanced, arrested Luong Kien Son and escorted him outside the barracks. After returning to the capital after the end of the hunting period, Luong Kien Son's case was handled at extremely fast speed. The three jurors, the evidence is as solid as a mountain, there is absolutely no possibility of overturning the case. He was stripped of his title, made a commoner, imprisoned in prison and sentenced to immediate beheading. All over the capital, there was a stir, some people said that the Regent King was betrayed by the woman he loved. Some people say that woman was originally a secret agent installed by King Due. All kinds of rumors spread everywhere, no one said the same thing. Three days after Luong Kien Son was executed, the palace's inner servants came to pass orders, saying His Majesty summoned him. I followed him into the palace. In the royal study, there was only the Little Emperor alone. He sat behind the desk, holding a scroll in his hand. Without Luong Kien Son's restraint, he could finally rule on his own. Even though he is still not proficient, he still needs the help of the old mandarins and Due Vuong. But compared to the time when Luong Kien Son was authoritarian and autocratic, it was much better. “Song
Thi, you're here." I knelt down to pay my respects, and the Little Emperor immediately waved his hand. "Quickly stand up, your merit is so great, there's no need to kneel." "If it weren't for you penetrating the Regent Palace and getting evidence that Liang Jianshan had treasonous intentions, I'm afraid I and my uncle Due Vuong wouldn't have been able to overthrow him." "Say, what do you want to be rewarded? I can give you a death sentence and give you a grand mansion." I shook my head and smiled slightly. "The people don't need those things. The servant stayed by the Regent King's side for many days, eliminating the evil in his heart on behalf of His Majesty, and also completing the revenge for the old hatred on his behalf." "Now that my wish has been fulfilled, I only ask that Your Majesty grant the servant a royal edict, allowing the servant to leave freely." The Little Emperor looked at me quietly for a long time, as if he was pondering something. Finally, he still took the pen and wrote a decree of gratitude, stamping the jade seal on it. Then he ordered his internal maids to tell King Due to come in. Due Vuong arrived very quickly. After changing into his armor, the gentleness in the corner of his eyes became more evident. After reading my request, he pondered for a moment and then nodded slightly. "If you are so determined, this king will not keep it." "This king will give you a farm on the outskirts of the capital, and give you a little more money." "You will have to leave anyway, consider it a fee." I did not refuse anymore, bowed my head in gratitude and accepted. Only, the Royal Palace was sealed, all the servants in the palace were also beheaded, along with the entire Royal Palace. After just one night, the Royal Palace became deserted, then without looking back, I asked someone to take care of my house. I only took a few fees with me and left the capital. At the ferry station on the outskirts of the capital, I boarded a merchant ship Enter the boat compartment, listen to the boat owner standing on the deck singing folk songs, then gently close your eyes. The road ahead is long with mountains and rivers, the stories of the next days... just let the wind blow away
