Chapter 59: His Majesty is right, power is happiness!

~9 min read 1,623 words

The Viceroy and the Chief Constable came to the government office early in the morning, hearing that Lin Yue'e had caught the Northern envoy.

Now the Northern envoy had already raised the matter to the diplomatic level, and officials from the Ministry of Rites had come to question them.

The Viceroy and the Chief Constable were truly having a headache now; if it wasn't handled properly, they would certainly be demoted and fined.

Lin Yue'e said righteously: "That Northern envoy was lurking near the Ninth Princess's mansion; I estimate it was mostly because His Majesty refused to use the Ninth Princess to marry for peace, and they intended to kidnap the Ninth Princess; I am preventing it before it happens!"

After Li Chen left last night, Lin Yue'e explored the nearby area, then stayed up all night to organize the information about the Northern envoy since entering the Imperial Capital, deducing this possibility.

Actually, she also guessed it was espionage activity, colluding with some royal family, but there was really no evidence for this.

"Do you have evidence to prove they want to kidnap the Ninth Princess?"

"Not yet investigated, but give me some time."

"That is to say, none?"

"We can't wait until they do it before we manage it; I am the head constable of that area, and guarding the safety of that area is my duty!"

The official runners around heard Lin Yue'e actually dare to defy the Viceroy like this, really very brave.

The Chief Constable saw the Viceroy's face gradually turn red and began to persuade: "Sir, what Head Constable Lin said is also very reasonable; if she didn't stop them in time, and let that group of Wang Zu envoys really take action to kidnap the Ninth Princess, then both of us would be derelict in our duties."

It could be seen that the Chief Constable still protected Lin Yue'e quite a bit.

He stated the severity of the matter.

It would be fine if the Wang Zu envoy didn't cause trouble, but if they really caused it, being dismissed from office would be small, and losing their heads would be big.

And Lin Yue'e caught them after receiving a report from the masses; it was acting according to the rules, not intentionally looking for trouble.

"Then you say what to do; the Ministry of Rites and the Wang Zu people are all inside." The Viceroy was like a deflated ball.

The diplomatic pressure was great, and his subordinate's temper was hard; he suffered on both sides.

This Viceroy was so frustrated.

The Chief Constable pondered for a moment and said earnestly to Lin Yue'e: "How about this, you go to apologize to that Wang Zu envoy first, then we let him out, and send some more people to monitor them to ensure they won't cause trouble in the Imperial Capital; wouldn't that solve it?"

Because Atad, who was locked in the prison, specifically asked for Lin Yue'e to apologize; if Lin Yue'e didn't kneel and apologize, he would rather die in the government office than leave.

The Chief Constable knew Lin Yue'e's character, but in this place, he hoped Lin Yue'e would take a step back.

"Hmph, I'll handle it myself."

Saying that, Lin Yue'e walked toward the area where prisoners were held.

The Viceroy and the Chief Constable looked at each other, both shaking their heads helplessly, and could only follow.

Just arrived nearby, Lin Yue'e heard a group of Ministry of Rites officials persuading Atad to come out of the prison.

This Atad was just cheap; the more the Ministry of Rites people said, the less he wanted to leave, and he indicated that this prison was very comfortable.

Beside him were many people wearing Northern Wang Zu formal attire, constantly putting pressure on the Ministry of Rites officials.

When they saw the "culprit" Lin Yue'e appear, they began to denounce Lin Yue'e together.

"Head Constable Lin, come over and apologize to the Wang Zu envoy, otherwise don't think about being a head constable!"

"How did you handle this matter! Is the Wang Zu envoy someone you can catch just because you say so!"

The Ministry of Rites officials had an arrogant appearance; each of their official positions was higher than Lin Yue'e's, so naturally, they could reprimand Lin Yue'e.

Atad saw Lin Yue'e come over and directly mocked: "Isn't this Head Constable Lin? Where is the majestic spirit when catching people yesterday? I don't know what the Khan will think if he knows about this."

Opening his mouth was the Khan; he wanted to use the Khan to put pressure on these small officials.

The Khan couldn't scare Li Chen's level, but that didn't mean other small officials weren't afraid.

He started making trouble, and other Wang Zu people also began to ridicule.

For a time, Lin Yue'e became the target of public criticism here.

Looking around at the ugly faces of this group of people, Lin Yue'e said coldly: "Have you finished speaking? Then I'm going to start!"

As soon as the words fell, she directly took out a waist token from her bosom.

This waist token was made of mysterious gold, and the surface was filled with vast golden light.

Carved on it were complex dragon patterns, lifelike, as if they could soar into the sky at any time.

In the center of the waist token, two vigorous and powerful characters "Imperial Gift" were carved. When this waist token appeared in front of everyone, a powerful deterrent force suddenly appeared.

That was the pressure from the Emperor!

The originally noisy scene instantly quieted down.

Everyone's gaze focused on this waist token, their faces showing expressions of disbelief.

"This is..." an official exclaimed in a low voice, his voice filled with a trace of trembling.

"His Majesty's waist token!" The Ministry of Rites official had already recognized the origin of the waist token, his voice filled with awe.

Lin Yue'e held the waist token high, her voice cold and firm: "His Majesty's bestowed waist token is here; why don't you kneel down!"

In an instant, everyone at the scene knelt on the ground, including those Ministry of Rites officials who were arrogant just a moment ago.

Their faces were full of fear and awe, their bodies trembling, as if they were facing the supreme existence between heaven and earth.

"Long live His Majesty! Long live! Long live!"

"Long live His Majesty! Long live! Long live!"

!

The crowd shouted, their voices echoing in the vast prison, lingering for a long time.

Lin Yue'e looked at the crowd kneeling on the ground, a sense of indescribable pleasure surging in her heart.

Speak, why don't you continue speaking.

Isn't your official position higher than mine? You came to reprimand me without asking right or wrong.

Now you know I also have a backer!

Sure enough, this thing is really easy to use!

His Majesty is right, power is happiness!

Just now I wanted to explain, but now I'm too lazy to explain!

After scanning this group of people whose official positions were higher than hers, Lin Yue'e looked disdainfully at Atad who was in a daze in the prison.

Your backer is the Khan of the Northern Wang Zu, and my backer is the Emperor of the Tian Ce Dynasty.

Who is afraid of whom!

"This is the government office, all of you get out!"

Lin Yue'e didn't be polite, directly saying with cold eyes.

Hearing her order, this group of Ministry of Rites officials ran out frantically, taking those Wang Zu envoys with them.

Atad in the prison was stunned on the spot; aren't you here to save me, why do you leave as soon as you say so?

Lin Yue'e walked to the prison door, saying: "Don't you like staying here? Then you stay here forever."

At this moment, Atad's heart turned cold by half; how could this head constable know the current Emperor!

Originally Lin Yue'e was preparing to leave directly, but thinking of something, she walked to the prison door again, looking at Atad whose gaze was a bit dull, and said: "I'll tell you a good news; our Emperor has already announced that he will choose a day to go to war with your Wang Zu; if it really starts, you will sit in prison until you die!"

Seeing Atad's look from daze to horror, Lin Yue'e left here very satisfied.

With this, Atad's heart, which had turned cold by half, turned completely cold.

"Head Constable Lin, I was wrong, let me out quickly, I won't dare again!"

He kept shouting loudly for Lin Yue'e to let him out, but no one cared about him.

If I had known this, I would have left when those Ministry of Rites officials and the Viceroy let me out just now.

It's broken; now I can't get out even if I want to.

Just to show off, who knew it would develop like this!

No, if I had known that I would be humiliated by the Emperor of the Tian Ce Dynasty last time, I shouldn't have come up with this bad idea of catching the Ninth Princess.

Now it's good, eating my own bitter fruit.

Atad used to be a very warlike person, but now he hopes the Khan can cherish the peace in front of him.

For the sake of peace, you can take a step back appropriately; don't fight!

As long as the war hasn't officially started, even if your scheme is found out, it's just an attempted crime, and if your attitude is good, you can still get out.

If it really starts, you really won't be able to get out!
