The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 25: The Good Show Begins

Xiao Mingying begged to see Emperor Xia before the palace gate was locked.

Emperor Xia summoned him, thinking that the Wugu puppet had found out something else, but he didn't expect that he was running away to deliver a letter for his son.

Yo, this kid can call people, even the emperor's uncle.

Are you ready to act?

Emperor Xia opened the sealed letterhead, browsed carefully, his calm face finally changed, the corner of his mouth raised and he burst into laughter.

"This boy, the king of hell can think of all the evil ideas in the trial. No wonder he voluntarily entered the clan's mansion, so as to deceive others." Emperor Xia joked.

Xiao Mingying was a little dazed, she couldn't understand what Emperor Xia was talking about at all, why did it involve King Hades again?

Emperor Xia saw his confusion, so he handed the letter to him.

After reading the letter, Xiao Ming's expression changed from astonishment to relief, and he said: "The seventh prince appeals for grievances, defies power, and has such a benevolent heart, which is the blessing of the emperor's brother."

Emperor Xia nodded. Indeed, being able to avenge the people's grievances is kindness. It is courageous to dare to offend the Grand Master of the Cabinet. Not hesitating to risk oneself and set up a scheme is a conspiracy. This is the quality that a prince should have.

"Mingying, this matter still requires the cooperation of the clan's government, so how about we accompany him in this play?" Emperor Xia laughed.

"My younger brother takes the order." Xiao Mingying took the order.

Xia Huang looked at Hai Dafu, and said: "Hai Banban, since the East Factory has been established, you can send someone to assist Xiao Rui, follow his ideas, and fully cooperate."

"The servant understands." Eunuch Hai responded.

Xiao Mingying returned to the clan mansion and met Xiao Rui who was waiting for her.

"You kid, you can change your mind really quickly." Xiao Mingying scolded with a smile.

Xiao Rui bowed and said: "Uncle Emperor please forgive me, it happened so suddenly, I also had an idea."

"Your Majesty has asked Eunuch Hai to send people from Dongchang to assist you. You can enter and leave the clan mansion at any time. I have replaced the guards with my confidants, so you don't have to worry about your whereabouts being leaked. When are you going to act?" Xiao Mingying asked.

Xiao Rui said: "Wait another two days, let time fly for a while."

In the next two days, the imperial court continued to impeach the Seventh Prince Xiao Rui, and Emperor Xia ordered the clan's government to find out the situation as soon as possible.

At this time, Xiao Rui had quietly left the clan mansion and returned to the house he bought.

In the house, there is also Eunuch Wei, a confidant sent by Eunuch Hai.

"Your Highness, this servant is under the orders of Master Zhangyin, and is always at your service." Eunuch Wei is in his forties, with a soft face.

Xiao Rui said: "Okay, then I will trouble Eunuch Wei for the next thing."

"Your Highness is serious." Eunuch Wei said in panic.

Xiao Rui took out a few pieces of paper from his bosom, on which the action plan was recorded in detail, handed it to Eunuch Wei, and said: "First, I need Eunuch Wei to find a way to create a hellish mansion."

"The underworld?" Eunuch Wei was startled, what virtue and ability did he have, he had the means to communicate with ghosts and gods. What's more, I have committed many evils, and what I fear most is going to hell after death. Your Highness, are you asking me to throw myself into a trap?

He immediately looked at the action plan in detail before he understood what Xiao Rui meant.

It turned out to be to find a dark house, dress up as a sinister underworld, and then order people to pretend to be ghosts, messengers and servants with a bull's head and a horse face, trying to dress up as much as possible.

It scared our family to death. It turned out that I didn't want me to court death.

The second step is to use means to drug Xu Haoran, like being drunk, to make him half awake, so that he can trust the surrounding environment.

The third step, of course, is the Night Trial by the King of Hades.

After seeing the plan, Eunuch Wei said with emotion: "Your Highness's magic pen, you can think of such a way to solve the case, which is unheard of."

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "This is a helpless move. If there is evidence, why bother playing with this. The impeachment of Yushi will fly like snowflakes to the dragon case of the father, and impeach me for ghosts and gods. It is not appropriate Use more."

"Eunuch Wei, are you sure you can handle Xu Haoran?" Xiao Rui asked.

Eunuch Wei said arrogantly: "Your Highness, don't worry, although the East Factory has just been established, it is a veteran in terms of methods and experience. The servant must have gotten Xu Haoran without anyone noticing, making him think that he was tied into the underworld by a ghost."

"Okay! Wait for Mr. Wei's business to be completed." Xiao Rui cupped his fists and said.

Eunuch Wei retreated in fear.

Gao Quan was waiting on the side, seeing that Xiao Rui was a little tired, he quickly called hot water and a hot towel for him to rub his face.

"You have worked hard these few days." Xiao Rui took the towel and wiped his face.

Gao Quan said respectfully: "Your Highness has gone to the clan mansion, and the subordinates can only worry about it. Speaking of hard work, His Highness Nine is busy inside and out for His Highness's safety."

Xiao Rui heard that it was a lie that he wasn't moved in his heart, among several brothers, only this brother was sincerely for himself, that's enough.

"Your Highness, do you still want to notify His Highness Ninth?" Gao Quan asked.

Xiao Rui was a little hesitant. Xiao Yan was reckless. Once he knew his plan, he would absolutely clamor to participate. But if he didn't say it, he would know afterward, wouldn't he be pestering himself...

Xiao Rui shivered, nodded, and said, "You go to him yourself, be careful."

"Yes!" Gao Quan led the order and went out.

The night was deep.

Xiao Yan hurried over.

"Haha, I knew it, my seventh brother is extremely smart, how could something happen?" Seeing Xiao Rui, Xiao Yan said shrilly.

Xiao Rui said helplessly: "I have important things to do these few days, you have to restrain yourself."

"I heard Gao Quan mention something, so hurry up and talk about it, what task made my blood boil. By the way, Seventh Brother, how did you prove your innocence?" Xiao Yan wondered.

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "There is a loophole in the Witch Gu doll, which allowed me to seize the opportunity to prove my innocence."

"Oh? What's the loophole? Could it be that the name of the father was written wrong?" Xiao Yan asked.

The corner of Xiao Rui's mouth twitched, if the emperor knew, would he slap this evil son to death?

"It was written with cinnabar. That day in the palace, I saw the witch doll, and found that the color of cinnabar was bright red. I knew it was written within a few days. And I moved out of Duanwang's mansion for more than 20 days. I’ve never been back, so can’t it be proved that I’m not the one who did it? I moved out of Prince Duan’s mansion, and that mansion belongs to the fourth brother. I found the witch doll from his mansion and asked him about it. It’s none of my business.” Xiao Rui explained.

Xiao Yan slapped his forehead, unexpectedly ignoring this most basic time clue.

"So, seventh brother sold fourth brother?" Xiao Yan winked.

Xiao Rui said solemnly: "I'm just stating the facts, and I didn't wrong anyone. I just heard that after I entered the clan's mansion, the fourth elder brother entered the palace to sue the emperor and reprimanded me for being unfilial. Hey, I don't know if this belongs to the past or not. He stabbed himself with a knife."

"Haha..." Xiao Yan leaned back and said, "It's what he deserves, who made him talk too much."

"By the way, what kind of scheme are you planning, is it against Xu Xianyang or Xu Haoran?" Xiao Yan said excitedly, that's a cabinet scholar, it's exciting to think about it.

Xiao Rui pointed to the action plan on the table and said, "Look for yourself."

Xiao Yan picked up the action plan and browsed it carefully. After a while, he looked at Xiao Rui with burning eyes: "Brother Seven, can I ask for a role?"

"What role?" Xiao Rui asked.

"Yan Wang, I will be the chief interrogator! Yan Wang's demeanor is completely in line with mine." Xiao Yan vowed.

"Get lost." Xiao Rui gave him a blank look.

"The bull's head and horse noodles are also fine." Xiao Yan continued to beg.

"It's not for you, just watch the show well and don't make trouble is the biggest help to me." Xiao Rui said.

Xiao Yan gritted his teeth angrily, staring at Xiao Rui.
