Chapter 2163: Chapter 2163: You Will Die Too!

"Ever since you ascended to the throne, you have incited wars, allowed the nobility to oppress the common folk, and caused the people to live such miserable lives that public discontent has risen everywhere. Aren’t all these enough? If I’m not wrong, those children were abducted by your secret guards, weren’t they?"

"I..."

The Emperor of Beikun felt guilty inside. Those children had indeed been taken on his orders, but so what?

"I did it for the sake of those children, to provide them with a stable place to stay, to let them have full bellies instead of begging on the streets. Where did I go wrong?"

He wouldn’t admit his mistake. He had ordered the children to be taken away for their own good.

Now those sold children would surely have enough to eat, wouldn’t they? They wouldn’t need to beg on the streets anymore, to live off others’ whims, hungry one moment and full the next.

How could he be wrong? He did what he did for the future of the Beikun Kingdom.

"You—"

State Scholar Qing opened his mouth but found himself at a loss for words.

He thought that even if he didn’t mention it, the Emperor of Beikun would feel some remorse in his heart, but it seemed that was not the case.

He didn’t feel in the slightest that he had done anything wrong.

"Hah, why am I even talking to you about this?"

Is it possible to reason with someone living in their own world? Of course, the answer is no.

"High Priest, this lord, may I ask how you plan to deal with the Emperor of Beikun?" He turned his head, looking towards An Jiuyue and the others, and asked softly.

At this, An Jiuyue slightly raised her eyebrows.

There are a few clear-headed ones left in the Beikun Kingdom. She believes that what State Scholar Qing says is true.

All along the way, they have seen with their own eyes the kind of lives the common people lead. Without some sort of covert aid, who knows what state the people of the Beikun Kingdom would be in by now?

"What do you think?"

She asked State Scholar Qing in return, no one knows the situation of the Beikun Kingdom better than the man before her.

And she does not live in the Plant Plane. Although she had considered dividing the land of the Three Kingdoms, including Beikun, into six parts to give to the other six nations, she also did not have so much time to spend here, right?

Therefore, the best solution is to hand over all these matters to people like State Scholar Qing who can still think of the common people’s welfare.

"I..."

"State Knight Qing Muguo, don’t forget you are a State Knight of the Beikun Kingdom. Are you planning to betray the Beikun Kingdom?"

Just as State Scholar Qing was about to speak, he heard the Emperor of Beikun’s shrill scream. The Emperor stared at Qing Muguo with bloodshot eyes, as if he wanted to devour him alive.

The Beikun Royal Family reared these State Knights only for them to betray him in the end?

"Don’t forget, you State Knights have signed the Mandate Contract with me. If the Beikun Kingdom falls, you too will die!" he yelled at Qing Muguo.

Hearing this, Qing Muguo’s lips curled into a faint smile.

Turning his head, he looked at the Emperor of Beikun again, "Your Majesty, in the years you’ve been Emperor, have you truly never used your own brain? To utter such foolish words?"

"What do you mean?"

The Emperor of Beikun, not understanding, got up from the ground and glared at Qing Muguo, demanding an answer.

Where did he speak wrongly? It was true that Qing Muguo and others had signed the Mandate Contract with the Beikun Kingdom. He had seen the contract himself.

Otherwise, did they think he would use the royal treasury’s wealth to support these ungrateful and disobedient people?
