Chapter 446: The Free and Easy Female-dominated Country 22
Ning Shu was very impatient with these ministers. They took their salaries and tried to control her, the empress, with their numbers. They all wanted to go down in history. Why didn't they just bang their heads against the wall and die? They were so scared when they knelt down.
"The prestige of the Crown Princess in the court is quite high. So many people are pleading for you." Ning Shu pulled the corner of her mouth, "You are so capable, forming a clique for personal gain."
Ning Shu pointed at the ministers, "You, you, and you, do you mean that the will of the empress can be violated at will, can be violated on impulse, can be violated when necessary?"
One by one, the focus blurred.
"I dare not." The minister knelt on the ground and kowtowed, not daring to say anything else.
Mu Xue frowned with her handsome eyebrows and glanced at Ning Shu, wondering what the other party's purpose was in coming here today.
"Mother Queen, it was my fault. I did not think before I acted." Mu Xue kowtowed and said, "I will reflect on this."
Ning Shu sneered and said coldly, "The Crown Princess really loves her officials like her own children. I just scolded these ministers and the Crown Princess immediately took all the blame on herself, but she murdered her own sisters."
Mu Xue clenched her fists tightly, a gloomy look flashed across her face. She quickly glanced at Ning Shu and saw disgust and ridicule on the other's face.
Mu Xue's heart was full of doubts. Why didn't this woman die until now? It shouldn't be like this?
"I know I was wrong." Mu Xue didn't know what to say except this sentence. No matter what she said, the other party would find fault.
Ning Shu had said so much that her body could not bear it any longer. She could only sit down and tremble slightly.
Mu Qing looked at Ning Shu with complicated eyes. Usually, this old witch looked like she was dying, but now she was so energetic. I'm afraid she was just holding on.
Ning Shu's throat was bleeding, and he glanced at Lady Qiu, who immediately brought tea to Ning Shu. Ning Shu gulped down the tea and swallowed the blood in his throat.
After drinking a cup of tea, Ning Shu snorted coldly, "If you do it again, I will abolish you as the crown prince. If you don't reflect on yourself and discipline others, I will abolish you even if it means shaking the foundation of the country."
"Old Five, let's go." Ning Shu said to Mu Qing, who was standing there as a pillar.
Mu Qing instantly felt the gloomy eyes of the Crown Princess sweeping across her face.
What exactly does this old witch want to do?
Is she deliberately trying to make her confront the Crown Princess?
Mu Qing felt that she didn't have the power to confront the Crown Princess now. Although she had the power given by the old witch, she didn't have the prestige of the Crown Princess in the court.
From what happened just now, it can be seen that when the Crown Princess has something wrong, most of the ministers kneel down to plead for her.
Mu Qing silently estimated her chances of winning against the Crown Princess. Now the old witch was deliberately making her hate him. Mu Qing felt that the old witch wanted to kill her.
It would be good if she could become the Queen, otherwise she would become someone else's whetstone. The old witch was so vicious that she wanted them to fight.
"What are you doing? Let's go." Although Ning Shu was urging Mu Qing, her tone was full of doting and tolerance. When Mu Qing heard this, her legs went weak.
The old witch was not like this when she was with her in private. Not to mention how cold she was. Now she looked like a loving mother with evil intentions.
Mu Xue knelt on the ground and frowned when she saw Ning Shu's attitude towards the fifth daughter of the Emperor. She really couldn't understand why Mu Nishang didn't like Mu Xue? They were both children, so why was there such a big gap?
Mu Qing quickly walked to Ning Shu's side and stood behind him to reduce her presence.
Ning Shu rolled his eyes at her and had to confront her even if he didn't want to.
Mu Qing felt Ning Shu's malicious eyes again, and she wanted to spit blood. This old witch must have a grudge against her, or was she avenging her for being rude to her before.
Ning Shu walked to the door, as if he remembered something, and said to Mu Qing: "You go out first, I have something to say to the Crown Princess." Mu Qing went out immediately and closed the door.
Ning Shu and Mu Xue were the only ones left in the room. Ning Shu sighed and said to Mu Xue who was kneeling, "Get up."
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Mu Xue stood up, "What do you want to say to me, Queen Mother?"
"Actually, it's nothing." Ning Shu took Mu Xue's hand, lowered his head and looked at Mu Xue's white and smooth hands, and then looked at his own claws. Ning Shu felt unbalanced in his heart.
Mu Xue looked at Ning Shu in a puzzled way, not understanding what was wrong with this person. She wanted to pull her hand out, but was held tightly by the other party.
Ning Shu calculated in his mind that he could not beat Mu Xue who was strong and healthy.
Ning Shu took a deep breath, then took out the dagger and stabbed himself in the heart. A mouthful of black blood sprayed on Mu Xue's face, and he screamed.
Mu Xue instantly understood Ning Shu's intention and wanted to break free from Ning Shu's hand, but was held tightly by Ning Shu. Ning Shu used his last strength and could not let go of Mu Xue's hand.
"You..." Mu Xue sucked in a breath of cold air from between her teeth and kicked Ning Shu with her feet. Ning Shu spat out black blood and held Mu Xue's hand tightly. Her nose was blocked by the surging black blood and she couldn't breathe.
I won't let you go even if I die. I can't complete the mission, and you can't even think about it.
The people outside heard the screams in the house. Mu Qing took the lead in pushing open the door and saw the scene of the Crown Princess committing a crime.
Everyone was stunned. Mu Qing shouted loudly: "Crown Princess, you actually committed a crime against the Queen Mother. Imperial Physician, call the Imperial Physician quickly."
Mu Xue's face was stained with black blood, and her hands seemed to be imprisoned by a huge iron chain. She didn't even open Ning Shu's hand.
"You are so vicious." Ning Shu spat out black blood and said with difficulty: "Abandon the Crown Princess."
Mu Xue's heart was shocked and she looked at Ning Shu blankly. This was going to drag her down with him even if she died.
"Ding, leave the mission world." The sound of 2333 sounded, and Ning Shu's soul was instantly ejected from Mu Nishang's body. At this moment, she no longer felt pain.
Regicide and matricide?!
Everyone looked at Mu Xue, whose face was covered in blood, and they had only one thought in their mind: the Crown Princess might collapse.
A gloomy look flashed across Mu Xue's face, and she wanted to pry open the hand that was pulling her, but she couldn't do it no matter what, and her nails were sinking into her flesh.
This determination shocked Mu Xue.
Mu Qing took out the military token of the Imperial Guards and asked the Imperial Guards to capture Mu Xue, who had murdered the king.
Mu Xue looked at the military token in Mu Qing's hand and said in a cold voice: "How dare you! I am the Crown Princess, who dares to touch me?"
"Mu Xue, you killed your sister and your mother, and your crimes are heinous. Before my mother died, she said that she wanted to depose the Crown Princess." Mu Qing waved at the armored guards.
The Imperial Guards rushed into the room and surrounded Mu Xue.
