Chapter 3494 Tell the Truth

Chapter 3494: Be honest

"You did not kill these prey with your own hands. Please tell me the truth!"

With the roar of Zhou An, the Emperor of the Great Zhou Empire, everyone in the entire hunting ground fell silent, with only the strong wind blowing and the hunting sound of the flags!

Everyone's heart is pounding. Anyone with a little awareness can guess that the emperor did this on purpose!

Generally speaking, this kind of hunting matter is not an important matter of principle at all. Even if some people cheat, the emperor must give him face. After all, Zhou Renchen's father is the prime minister!

However, the emperor actually said this matter in public and showed such anger. In the eyes of many smart people, it had an unusual meaning.

"Prime Minister, this..." General Zhou Yongguo looked at the Prime Minister not far away and said word by word, "Prime Minister, have you heard the recent news?"

Zhou Xiaokang, the prime minister of the Great Zhou Empire, who is Ding Hao's father here, looked livid at the moment and said word by word, "I knew that after the discovery of the spirit stone mine, there would be changes in the country!"

Most people would never think of this. Only people at the level of prime ministers and generals can deduce the discovery of the spirit stone mine based on what is happening in front of them!

General Zhou Yongguo frowned and said, "The discovery of this spirit stone mine has made the emperor decide to speed up and fall to the Brotherhood of the Undead!"

"Alas!" Prime Minister Zhou Xiaokang sighed.

In fact, as senior officials of the empire, they had long seen that Emperor Zhou An wanted to change sides.

Zhou An wants to lead the Great Zhou Empire, break away from the Sword Alliance, and join the Brotherhood of the Undead!

Over the years, the emperor has been using troops in the rear for this reason, but on the surface he has not yet left the Sword Alliance! However, with the discovery of the spirit stone mine, this huge resource will definitely attract the attention of all parties. The Zhou Empire cannot protect this spirit stone vein at all!

The best way is to fall over to the Brotherhood of the Dead immediately. When the time comes, the opposing countries will send strong men to help, and you can defend this spirit stone vein!

"If the emperor wants to turn to the other side, our two families must be dealt with first!" Prime Minister Zhou Xiaokang sighed. He had already seen that the emperor's anger today was not directed at his son, but at him!

At this moment,

Ding Hao's mother here also came up anxiously and said, "My lord husband, what should we do? The emperor should be furious about this matter. I did something wrong this time! I hope that the mistress can give a proper answer. Maybe the emperor Once the anger subsides, that's all."

Zhou Xiaokang also sighed and said, "It's hard to let this matter go. If the emperor really wants to deal with my third son for this, we can only stand by and watch, and don't come forward!"

Knowing that the emperor was targeting him, Zhou Xiaokang did not dare to contradict him face to face, otherwise, the emperor would arrest his entire family in the Prime Minister's Mansion today!

"What! We can only stand by and watch?" Ding Hao's mother here said anxiously, "Although my third son is not very lovable and doesn't like to talk to others all day long, he is our child after all. How can we ignore him?"

General Zhou Yongguo who was standing next to him advised, "Sister-in-law, you don't know something! The emperor is coming for us. If we follow and talk, we will be punished by the emperor as well! The best way is to let your mistress The emperor will take it down first, and then we will look for opportunities to convince the emperor to rescue the mistress! Don’t contradict the emperor today, otherwise we will all be finished!”

Although the Prime Minister's Office and the General's Office were both very important in the Zhou Empire, they did not dare to confront the emperor head-on.

Therefore, Zhou Yongguo and Zhou Xiaokang could only think of a compromise method, which was to first let Ding Hao be an abandoned son and let him be captured by the emperor, so that the emperor could vent his anger and calm down.

After the matter calms down for a few days, they will find a way to rescue Ding Hao. At that time, they will contact all parties in the country to oppose the Zhou Empire's surrender to the enemy!

"It seems that's the only way!" Ding Hao's mother here looked cautiously at the high platform in the distance, and sighed, "Little Third Son, I hope you will be careful in your answers and actions, so as not to offend the emperor, let alone bring me, Zhou Jia, together. Pull down the water..."

But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard Ding Hao standing under the golden pavilion, raising his head and saying, "Your Majesty, are these prey killed by me myself? Don't you know that clearly?"

Listening to Ding Hao's calm rhetorical question, everyone present took a breath of air and said secretly, this kid is too brave to talk to the emperor like this, aren't you looking for death?

"I do know it clearly!" The emperor's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, and he raised his hand and waved, "Bring these people here!"

Immediately, a dozen young talents were tied up and brought up. All of these people had received instructions from Prime Minister Zhou's family to throw the hunted prey at the entrance of the cave. Now all of them were captured by the emperor and brought here.

Seeing Long Yan's rage, these young talents knelt down and begged for mercy, telling all the things about Prime Minister Zhou's family bribed them one by one.

After hearing these people's confessions, Prime Minister Zhou's family all turned pale, especially Ding Hao's mother. She only managed it with all her strength, but she didn't expect to be questioned by the emperor in public!

After listening to these people's explanation, the emperor's eyes became even colder. He swept across Prime Minister Zhou's family in the distance, and then said word by word, "You bribed geniuses, engaged in corruption, and tried to deceive the emperor to obtain precious opportunities for cultivation. This is what you Prime Minister Zhou's family did! Don't you know that this is a crime of deceiving the emperor?"

Prime Minister Zhou was so scared that he trembled all over. He immediately walked down from the viewing platform, knelt down from a distance, and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, I am guilty! I am guilty! My crime is unforgivable. I ask Your Majesty to give my family a chance. I am willing to retire!"

Prime Minister Zhou Xiaokang was really scared this time. He would rather hide in the mountains with his family than care about national affairs!

A smug sneer appeared on the corner of the emperor's mouth. In fact, he didn't necessarily have to kill all the prime minister's family. After all, the prime minister had contributed a lot to this empire, and the prime minister was also a distant relative of the Zhou royal family. There was no need to fight against each other and chill the hearts of the people!

However, just as everyone was relieved and the matter was about to be exposed, Ding Hao, who was standing there, suddenly said, "Your Majesty, this is just a hunting activity for the coming-of-age ceremony. You are so angry that you have planned it in advance?"

Wow! Everyone present was in an uproar. Everyone thought that this third son of the prime minister's mansion was really looking for death. The emperor had let your family go, but you still wanted to continue to worry about it!

Not only that, after Ding Hao finished speaking, he took another step forward, raised his hand and pointed at the emperor, and asked, "I was in seclusion in the cave for seven days, and the Yulin Guards ambushed outside and wanted to shoot me. Did you do it? Tell me the truth!"
