Having been given a second chance at life, I choose to join the Demonic Sect!

Chapter 63 The ministers pressured the Empress!

"I and my brother Tang Shang are deeply in love, and I have decided to marry him and make him my son-in-law. I wonder if any of you ministers have any objections?"

After Lin Han finished speaking, his gaze swept across the assembled officials, finally settling on General Yun Che.

She seemed to be asking the court officials, but in reality she was asking Yun Che, her fiancé!
"This……"

Upon hearing Lin Han's words, the faces of the assembled officials darkened.

What on earth is this tyrannical ruler trying to do?

Although this foolish emperor usually cuddled with Tang Shang, at least some things hadn't been completely laid bare, and he still left General Wang Yunche with a little face.

Now that this foolish emperor has said these words, he has no regard for his fiancé Yun Che's feelings at all. He has directly humiliated Yun Che, the great general, by pressing his face to the ground!
How can Yun Che, the Grand General, possibly maintain his position in the Bao Cui Dynasty?
"What do you say, Great General?"

Just as the courtiers were worried, Empress Lin Han directly asked Yun Che.

As subjects of the people, they were all furious on behalf of General Yun Che.

Yun Che ignored Empress Lin Han's question and instead said directly:
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Tang Shang was a member of the Tang family of the Xuan Yun Dynasty. The Tang family was wiped out a few months ago, suspected to be the work of a Nascent Soul cultivator!

"The Xuan Yun Dynasty royal family banished Tang Shang to the Bao Cui Dynasty in order to use a Nascent Soul cultivator to destroy the Bao Cui Dynasty!"

"Your Majesty, I implore you to immediately execute Tang Shang for the sake of the safety of the people of the Bao Cui Dynasty, and to issue an edict of self-reproach, so as to prevent the Bao Cui Dynasty from suffering the wrath of a Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Yun Che was furious at being humiliated by Empress Lin Han and immediately retorted.

He originally intended to just go through the motions, then resign from his post, break off the engagement, and run away.

But that bitch Lin Han didn't even give me, the Great General, the last bit of face. So before I resign, I, the Great General, won't let her have an easy time!

"what!"

Upon hearing this, the courtiers were immediately shocked, as they had not expected the matter to be so serious!
"We implore Your Majesty to immediately order Tang Shang's execution and issue an edict of self-reproach!"

Since the matter concerned a Nascent Soul cultivator, the ministers immediately formed a united front and seconded the motion to advise against it.

The Bao Cui Dynasty only has a few Nascent Soul cultivators, and it cannot afford to offend Deity Transformation cultivators. Offending a Deity Transformation cultivator will only lead to the destruction of the country.

Tang Shang, standing beside the dragon throne, was also panicked at this moment.

After arriving in the Bao Cui Dynasty, he used some tricks to seduce Lin Han, that fool.

He and Lin Han addressed each other as brother and sister, and he was even willing to endure humiliation and marry into the family, all in the hope of using the power of the Bao Cui Dynasty to take revenge on the Xuan Yun Dynasty's royal family.

Upon hearing that the person who destroyed the Tang family might be a Nascent Soul cultivator, a chill ran through him.

To put it bluntly, he felt that even if the entire Baocui Dynasty were to use all its resources, it would still be no match for a Nascent Soul cultivator!

Moreover, this is not the most important thing right now. The most important thing is that all the civil and military officials of the Bao Cui Dynasty are demanding that Lin Han kill him!
If Empress Lin Han were to yield even slightly, I might very well perish in these nine imperial palaces.

I cannot die here now that I have not avenged my great grudge.

Upon realizing this, Tang Shang immediately turned to Empress Lin Han for help.

"absurd!"

Empress Lin Han first gave Tang Shang a reassuring look, then loudly rebuked him:
"Ministers, this is just an excuse that Yun Che made up in order to separate me from my brother Tang Shang!"

After Empress Lin Han calmed the assembled officials, she cast a cold glance at Yun Che and questioned him:
“Yun Che, the Nascent Soul cultivators are all in the major sects. Tang Shang’s younger brother’s family is in the Xuan Yun Dynasty, so how could they possibly offend a Nascent Soul cultivator?”

The Tang family is nothing more than a Golden Core cultivator, even their ancestor was only a Nascent Soul cultivator. Is that enough to warrant a Nascent Soul cultivator's intervention?

Empress Lin Han didn't believe Yun Che's words at all. She thought it was just a despicable tactic Yun Che was using to break her and Tang Shang up. Tang Shang, who was standing next to her, felt a pang of unease upon hearing Lin Han's words.

Although he also felt that the Tang family could not possibly offend a Nascent Soul cultivator, Lin Han's words were a bit too direct. What the other party meant was that the Tang family was as insignificant as a grain of sand in front of a Nascent Soul cultivator!
Lin Han thought she had intimidated Yun Che, then turned her gaze to the ministers and stated her correct prediction:
"Ministers, in my opinion, it was a Nascent Soul cultivator who destroyed the Tang family."

As for the Tang family being instantly wiped out by Blood Refinement, that's all hearsay. It's even possible that the Tang family was wiped out by the royal family of the Xuan Yun Dynasty!
"Perhaps the Xuan Yun Dynasty's royal family coveted the Tang family's treasures, thus destroying the Tang family, but fearing damage to their royal reputation, they shifted the blame onto that nonexistent Nascent Soul cultivator!"

Empress Lin Han felt fortunate that she was clever and quick-witted, which allowed her to see through all of this and avoid falling into the treacherous schemes of the wicked minister Yun Che!
Xuan Yun Dynasty Royal Family: You, Lin Han, are indeed clever and quick-witted. If you weren't clever and quick-witted, how could you have led the Bao Cui Dynasty into such a dead end?

As for you wanting to shift the blame and make false accusations, go ahead!

Anyway, your country is going to be destroyed.

"Humph!"

Yun Che sneered upon hearing this and said:
"Ministers, do you believe in me, Yun Che, or in this Empress?"

As soon as Yun Che finished speaking, the courtiers, without giving it much thought, seconded the motion again:
"We implore Your Majesty, for the sake of the Baocui Dynasty, to immediately order the execution of Tang Shang and issue an edict of self-reproach!"

Lin Han's words, spoken by this foolish ruler, are full of loopholes and cannot withstand scrutiny.

Moreover, even if Yun Che's story was fabricated, the court officials were willing to support him, since they had long wanted to deal with Tang Shang, this exile from an enemy country.

Moreover, Empress Lin Han, that incompetent ruler, should be taught a lesson. She should be forced to issue an edict of self-reproach so that she can behave herself and stop causing trouble!

"you……"

Empress Lin Han trembled with anger upon seeing that all the civil and military officials were on Yun Che's side.

Are these civil and military officials subjects of Empress Lin Han, or subjects of General Yun Che?

Yun Che, this treacherous minister, is so powerful that he forms cliques and engages in corrupt practices in the court, to the point that all the ministers in the court are his cronies!

"Sister Lin Han!"

Tang Shang panicked when he saw that the court officials were all demanding his execution. He was afraid that Lin Han would not be able to withstand the pressure from the court officials.

"Brother Tang Shang, rest assured, you saved my life, and I will not allow anyone to harm you in the slightest!"

Lin Han was determined to protect Tang Shang. She wanted to see what this treacherous minister Yun Che could do!

"Your Majesty, if you remain so stubborn and unenlightened..."

We'll immediately go to the royal ancestral lands and ask the royal patriarch to depose you, this incompetent ruler, and install a new one!

The three dukes saw that even now, Empress Lin Han still showed no remorse for what she had done.

Determined to protect Tang Shang and drag the Bao Cui Dynasty into utter ruin, they immediately made the harsh statement of deposing the emperor.

As soon as the three high officials spoke, the other ministers seconded their opinions.

The ministers dared to guarantee that, given the current situation, if the matter were to escalate to the point of involving the imperial patriarch, Empress Lin Han's fate would be, at the very least, to be deposed.

If it had been more severe, Lin Han might have been killed by the royal patriarch.

Only out of respect for the retired Emperor Lin Han's father, are the officials still standing here, giving Lin Han a chance to choose:
First, he ordered the execution of Tang Shang and issued an edict of self-reproach.

Secondly, they were waiting to be deposed and forced off the throne.
