"Your Highness is wise. I was wrong. I shouldn't have doubted the general!" Yan Shiba was completely convinced that he had been seen through.
"It's good that you know you were wrong. Why aren't you apologizing to the Valiant General?" Chen Jiu scolded.
"Yes, General Valiant God, I was just being impatient. I didn't mean to target you, so please forgive me!" Yan Shiba also apologized sincerely.
"It's fine. You did it for the good of the country!" The Valiant General was generous and didn't hold it against Yan Shiba.
"Your Highness is wise!" Hundreds of officials praised and flattered Chen Jiu one by one.
"Jiu 'er, are we just going to let this matter rest? Are we going to let Eight Trigrams Military Advisor and the others die for nothing? "The Emperor of the Entertainment Circle couldn't help but ask.
The officials were about to convict Courage God, but with Chen Jiu's actions, the verdict was overturned and the State Preceptor even slapped their faces. The officials were all convinced. This was a little unbelievable!
"Father, of course we can't just let it go like this. In my opinion, the Eight Diagrams Military Counselor must have found an evil force hidden in our capital and wanted to eliminate it, but they didn't expect to be harmed by it. This is really a sacrifice for the country!" Chen Jiu's next words made everyone even more dumbfounded.
"Evil force? Our country has been peaceful for so many years. Why would an evil force suddenly appear? Even the State Preceptor and the others can't defeat them? "The Emperor of the Entertainment Circle couldn't believe it.
"Your Highness, we have to be vigilant in times of peace. We don't want to plot against others but we can't guarantee that others won't plot against us. Therefore, we have to investigate this matter thoroughly. After all, the State Preceptor sacrificed himself for the country. It's a reminder, "Chen Jiu suggested. Actually, it was just a casual suggestion. If they didn't find anything, the matter would naturally be left unsettled.
"Your Highness is right. Our country may seem peaceful but we can't guarantee that there aren't any evil forces hiding in the country …" The officials agreed and the Emperor of the Entertainment Circle couldn't help but believe it.
"Pass down my imperial edict. The Eight Diagrams Military Advisor's family shall be conferred the title of Loyal Martyrs. Their family members shall receive state pension!" The Entertainment Emperor thought for a moment, then immediately issued an order. "Yan Shiba, take some men and investigate the undercurrents in the capital. You must find the person who murdered the Imperial Advisor!"
"Your Majesty is wise and brilliant!" Hundreds of officials bowed in admiration, loudly pleading for virtue.
"Big brother, let's go out and play!" Seeing that the matter was over, Shen Jie didn't want to stay any longer.
"Well, your father is going back. Aren't you going home?" Chen Jiu kindly reminded her.
"I'm not going back. I want to sleep with my brother today!" Shen Jie clearly wanted to stick to Chen Jiu.
"Ah, let's go, let's go!" Chen Jiu was too embarrassed to stay any longer.
"Cough cough, Your Majesty, I'm going back too!" Courage God's face was naturally red as he felt extremely ashamed.
"Fortunately, His Highness didn't target me!" The Wealthy State Preceptor finally heaved a sigh of relief and sighed in relief.
The death of the Imperial Advisor was originally supposed to be the end of the matter, but Chen Jiu didn't expect that the matter he casually mentioned would become a reality!
The undercurrents in the capital were indeed not peaceful. After a thorough investigation, Yan Shiba really did find the problem.
Seven days later, the atmosphere in the palace was tense. Everyone stared at the two kneeling young men as if they were facing a great enemy!
"Yan Shiba, did you say that the two of them are the Crown Prince of the Drama Kingdom, 'Xizi', and the Crown Prince of the Xiang Kingdom, 'Hugong'?" The Entertainment Emperor stared at the two men in disbelief.
"Your Majesty, that is exactly the case. Their identities are now beyond doubt, and their plan to blow up the capital is also conclusive!" Yan Shiba solemnly reported.
"The Drama Kingdom and the Xiang Kingdom are neighbors to our Entertainment Kingdom, and we have been on good terms for a long time. Why would they do such a thing to me?" The Entertainment Emperor couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
"Your Majesty, you'll have to ask them about that!" Yan Shiba glared at the two young men.
"Haha, is there even a need to ask? We want to join forces to conquer your kingdom and make a name for ourselves. It's that simple! "The two young men laughed fearlessly.
"Make a name for yourself? Are you going to ignore the lives of our citizens for the sake of making a name for yourself?" Courage God rebuked. He couldn't accept it.
"Citizens? If a bunch of them die, we can just move another batch over. In a few years, this place will be as prosperous as it is now! "The two Crown Princes completely disregarded the lives of their citizens.
"Bastards!" Courage God cursed. He immediately suggested, "Your Majesty, they are trying to overthrow the Entertainment Kingdom. They deserve to die a thousand times over. Please give the order to immediately execute them as a warning to the world!"
"Entertainment Emperor, if you dare to kill us, then you'll have to wait for our country's revenge. When the time comes, your Entertainment Kingdom's citizens won't be able to make a living, and your position as Emperor will be over!" The two Crown Princes threatened.
"This … It's better to lock them up first. It's better to keep the two Kingdoms in check!" The Entertainment Emperor was truly afraid.
"Your Majesty, they are too arrogant …" Although Courage God still had some objections, he was suppressed by the Entertainment Emperor. He didn't want to kill the two Crown Princes.
"Yan Shiba, this time, you foiled the enemy's plan to blow up the capital and even captured the two Crown Princes alive. This is a great achievement. If you have any requests, feel free to state them. I will do my best to satisfy you!" The Entertainment Emperor changed the topic.
"Your Majesty, this subject doesn't deserve such praise. This subject is only carrying out Your Majesty's orders. I wouldn't dare be greedy!" Yan Shiba replied humbly. In his heart, he was extremely grateful to Chen Jiu.
"Shiba, although this was my son's suggestion, your contribution is also great. How about this, I will make you King Yanluo's Military Advisor. You will be in charge of the capital's military forces. You will ensure the stability of our Entertainment Kingdom for generations to come. What do you think?" The Entertainment Emperor rewarded him.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This subject will definitely do his best for the Entertainment Kingdom until the day he dies!" Yan Shiba kowtowed as he thanked the Entertainment Emperor. He couldn't help but remind him, "Your Majesty, we have captured the two Crown Princes. They will definitely not let this matter rest. Your Majesty, please take precautions!"
"I have already made up my mind. I will write a letter to denounce the two Kingdoms. With their Crown Princes in my hands, I doubt they will dare to act rashly!" The Entertainment Emperor said confidently.
"Your Majesty is wise!" All the officials agreed. The matter was settled just like that.
"If the little Crown Prince was here, what would he do?" Courage God shook his head. He couldn't help but think of Chen Jiu, that three-year-old child who hadn't even been weaned off milk. He couldn't help but find this somewhat laughable.
Chen Jiu just happened to not be here. Shen Jie had returned and was sticking to him every day. If there was nothing else, he wouldn't need to attend the morning court anymore.
