Rebirth of the Tyrant’s Pet: Regent Prince is too Fierce
chapter-474

Chapter 474 Beheaded! (1)

“Benevolence of the emperor?”

Gong Jue laughed.

His smile made him incomparably handsome. That evildoer-like appearance made people lose color even under this weather!

At this moment, he was the King of Hell that officials were terrified of, thinking that he’d be demanding for their lives. But in the common people’s heart, Gong Jue was like an immortal that wasn’t impartial or corrupted. He was tall and mighty, unable to be blasphemed!

Gong Cheng hadn’t looked through the page of crimes for Grand Commandant Zheng. He was a bit confused. Although Grand Commandant Zheng was corrupted and received bribes, he had pretty good capabilities, thus the reason why he was valued. Just what caused him to kneel on the ground and tremble?

“Let this prince help you remember.”

Gong Jue said slowly, “Back then, you were just a seventh-grade small official at Huai River’s town. There was a flood once. Because you hadn’t reinforced the embankment, lots of land were flooded and many livestocks died. It was because of your lack of management that led to the epidemic too. You couldn’t forget about this, could you?”

He smiled, but the murderous aura on him didn’t fade.

As expected, that was what he was referring to!

At this time, Grand Commandant Zheng had given up on any hope and suddenly exclaimed loudly, “Prince, please have mercy! This official had neglected his duty back then, and this official has committed a crime! As long as this prince is willing to let this official go, this official will be the first one to agree to the princess recovering her position. Prince, please have mercy!”

Gong Cheng thought that he was losing face. So as long as they appealed to Gong Yimo, they thought that Gong Jue would let him go?

Even Minister Zuo wanted to stop him from talking!

Gong Jue laughed too, not knowing why this person would be that naive.

“Back then, a doctor came up with a prescription to treat the epidemic in time, but in order to escape the responsibility of not reinforcing the embankment and the lack of management that caused the epidemic to spread, you killed that doctor and allowed the epidemic to spread wildly. Then, you started to put up an act, eating and living with the common people. Even more, you ended up getting infected and pretended to resist the epidemic with them for a whole month! By the time everyone was helpless and countless died, you took out the prescription, claiming that you obtained it after testing it on yourself. You became the well-known official within Huai River Village, and received the common people’s appreciation and praise! After the epidemic was over, father emperor had sentenced you, and it was the common people that wrote a bloody letter that saved you. Even more, with the common people’s appreciation, everything went smoothly for you and you got promoted. Do you remember all of this?”

Gong Jue’s words made Grand Commandment Zheng fall limp on the ground, his face ashened.

Gong Cheng was furious! Even until now, he remembered just how many people died in the epidemic. He didn’t think that this was all due to this person’s selfish motives!

He couldn’t hold it in anymore, furiously saying, “Guards! Take Zheng Qi into the Zhao Prison’s death cell and wait for the sentencing!”

“Yes!”

Quickly, Grand Commandment Zheng had been dragged off his position too.

Minister Zuo was truly afraid this time. Gong Jue was like a supernatural. He knew everything. If it was just an accusation, he wouldn’t allow Gong Jue to do this. However, he knew about the things he had said. Even more, he had revealed the evidence first. Now, there was nothing he could do.

He was too horrifying. Gong Jue wasn’t a human!

Minister Zuo’s face was ashened and his palms were drenched in sweat. But right now, he wasn’t even angry that his trusted aides had been eliminated. He was just frightened, afraid that Gong Jue would continue to shift blame.
