Chapter 593 – The Singing of the Empty City 11

The Singing of the Empty City [11]
Liu Yue descended the platform step by step. However, she stopped to look at Yelu Hong who she is still holding. A trace of hesitation flashed by her eyes as she looked at him.
Prime Minister Xiao Chen is a keen person. He saw the hesitation on Liu Yue’s face, so he immediately said, “We are all loyal to Bei Mu. We are all trying to do our best for the emperor of Bei Mu. You care deeply for him so please try to understand our intentions.”
His words have a double meaning behind it and are much more effective than the random shouting and yelling by the other officials.
When the officials of the royal court of Bei Mu had seen Liu Yue hesitate, they continue to shout. They realize that her hesitation is their only road to survival.
When Ouyang Yu Fei saw this, he sighed, “Although it’s a good plan to change the blood (officials) of Bei Mu, we will also be seriously injured by this action. I see that these officials are quite sincere to you. So let’s consider…” Even though Ouyang Yu Fei didn’t finish his sentence, the meaning behind it was crystal clear.
Third Royal Uncle was also enlightened by his words. He immediately said in a loud voice, “I am the subject of Yelu Hong. I hereby vow that from hereto, as long as Regent Liu Yue’s action is done for good of the Bei Mu and the Bei Mu emperor, this subject will do my utmost to aid you. This subject vow that this subject will never have a second heart (disloyal).”
“This subject, Xiao Chen also vow…”
“This subject, Leng Cheng also vow…”
One after another, voices of vowing and swearing loyalty resounded throughout the hall. Their voices sounded anxious, but their tones are serious and heavy.
The people of the grassland consider oaths and spirits of loyalty extremely seriously. The vows that they had just promised would bound their heart and soul to her, making sure that they’ll never betray her.
Although Liu Yue’s expression was still cold, no one saw the smile within Liu Yue’s eyes.
After a short silence, Liu Yue slowly turned around. She profoundly said, “Since everyone is thinking this way and since everyone is loyal to Bei Mu, I will let this go once. After all, I am not an overbearing person who won’t forgive others. However, if this happens again in the future, then don’t blame this regent for being merciless.”
When Liu Yue finished her speech, she waved her hand and threw out the command tally of the South Courtyard. Hua Yulong caught the command tally. He bowed down and said, “I accept the order.” As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately rushed out.
The atmosphere is heavy and strong. When the people in Chen Lan Hall saw the scene, they let out a sigh. They had just become aware that in the coldest days of the winter, their clothes were already soaked in sweat.
“Someone come and take this rebel away. He will be dealt with later.” Liu Yue lightly waved her sleeve, faint fragrance slowly floated from her.
“Yes.” Someone immediately came in from outside the Chen Lan Hall.
