The few officials involved knelt on the ground.
They all trembled violently. Some people peed their pants in fear when they saw His Majesty beheading someone on the spot!
Gu Yihan was like a fierce lion, pacing back and forth with a bloody sword.
The dark green stone face in the hall cast a layer of gloom on his handsome face.
The officials looked at each other, unable to explain themselves.
Gu Yihan became even angrier. “Say something! Are you all mute? I’m asking you, who was the one who faked the imperial edict and closed the city gates?
What audacity!”
Before the emperor’s fury, the officials only dared to kneel and kowtow, trembling.
Gu Yihan pointed his sword out the door. “I sent hundreds of soldiers to provide disaster relief and treat illnesses. This is a critical moment, but you guys deliberately cut off their escape route. What are you guys trying to do? Starting a rebellion?!”
In a fit of anger, he suddenly swung his sword and cut off an arm of the official closest to him.
The official immediately let out a tragic wail.
Eunuch Chunshou lowered his head and summoned two imperial guards to drag him to the side.
He also stuffed a cloth into his mouth.
The more he screamed, the more it would arouse His Majesty’s anger.
The sword in Gu Yihan’s hand was pointed at a fatter official.
He gritted his teeth and asked, “Tell me, who instigated this?”
The official was so frightened that he looked down and immediately saw the blood on the cold sword!
He was so frightened that he immediately reached out his trembling hand and pointed at Cabinet Elder Liu.
Cabinet Elder Liu originally lowered his eyes as if this matter had nothing to do with him.
When he saw that official pointing at him, he immediately frowned and scolded angrily, “How dare you? When did I instruct you guys to close the city gate?”
The few officials who were in charge of the city gates came together to expose Cabinet Elder Liu’s secret instructions.
“This is a secret order with Cabinet Elder Liu’s seal. His Majesty will know at a glance!” The official handed over a letter with both hands.
Gu Yi took it with a cold expression.
He read it carefully, every word in the letter was Cabinet Elder Liu’s secret order.
Cabinet Elder Liu was worried that the epidemic would get out of control and spread down from the mountain.
Moreover, the hundreds of soldiers who went this time might not be able to return safely.
For the sake of himself and his clansmen, they had to seal the city gate. It was best to deal with this matter earlier.
At the end of the letter, Cabinet Elder Liu even mentioned something else.
Now, His Majesty would no longer kill recklessly for the sake of the little princess.
Even for something as important as a city lockdown, His Majesty wouldn’t be too ruthless.
When the officials in charge of the city gates saw what the letter said, they felt that it made sense.
If the soldiers returned and brought the epidemic into the capital, they would be in danger!
Therefore, the city gates were locked up before dawn.
Thousands of people were locked up outside.
After Gu Yihan finished reading the letter, the gloominess on his face became even colder than before.
In fact, he even sneered and then laughed loudly.
He looked no different from a crazy lunatic.
“Cabinet Elder Liu, when the late emperor was around, you were already an official in the court. When I ascended the throne, you have been a senior official for two generations. However, I didn’t expect you to be so muddle-headed.”
Cabinet Elder Liu knew that the matter had been exposed.
He quickly knelt down and cupped his hands, about to report.
“Your Majesty..
Suddenly!
The sharp sword pierced through his chest!
Cabinet Elder Liu paused and a trace of blood quickly gushed out from the corner of his mouth.
Gu Yihan held the sword steadily in his hand and stabbed in again!
He let the sword completely pierce through Cabinet Elder Liu’s body!
Gu Yihan stared at Cabinet Elder Liu’s dying eyes.
His smile was cold and carried a cruel handsomeness.
“Cabinet Elder Liu, you’re right. I keep my promise for my daughter and never kill the innocent. This is to let the heavens see that I’m not someone who goes back on my word!”
Suddenly, Gu Yihan smiled. “But Cabinet Elder Liu, you deserve to die..”
