Chapter 110 Qin Wu's Mafia Operation
"Soldiers, do you think these women are beautiful?"
Qin Wu loudly asked the soldiers below the stage.
"beautiful."
Upon hearing Qin Wu's question, the soldiers shouted it out without the slightest hesitation.
"like or not?"
Qin Wu then loudly questioned his soldiers.
"like."
The soldiers shouted again.
To them, these women were like fairies.
They are beings they can only dream of.
Normally, they wouldn't even dare to look these women in the eye.
If it weren't for the incident involving Liu Yun Wang, they wouldn't have had the chance to see these beauties like this.
"Very well, since the soldiers are pleased, then today I will reward everyone. From this day forward, these women will be assigned to the military women's quarters."
A ruthless glint flashed in Qin Wu's eyes, but he still wore a faint smile on his face.
It's impossible to figure out what he's thinking.
When the soldiers heard Qin Wu's words, they all thought they had misheard.
After all, these women were, in a sense, the women of the Flowing Cloud King, and thus considered members of the royal family.
They were actually given to them by the Divine Martial King.
"Your Highness...you're not joking, are you?"
A general of the Imperial Guard asked, somewhat stammering.
He also voiced the question that was on everyone's mind.
"Of course it's true. My brothers have worked so hard to protect the capital. As the current prince, it's only right that I reward them. They deserve it too."
Qin Wu smiled and addressed his generals.
However, his words caused the women of the Liuyun Prince's Mansion kneeling below to show fear on their faces.
They used to despise these stinking soldiers the most, and if it were really as the Flowing Cloud King ordered, they would rather just kill them.
They all began to struggle frantically.
It tried to break free from its restraints, making whimpering sounds.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
The general who had spoken earlier knelt down excitedly to express his gratitude.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Upon seeing this, the other soldiers also quickly knelt down to express their gratitude.
This was a tremendous blessing for them; they could finally have a taste of the woman they had never been able to reach before.
"Soldiers, rise up and take them away. Remember, don't let them die."
Qin Wu smiled and gave his instructions.
Upon hearing Qin Wu's order, soldiers immediately stepped forward to take the person away.
"stop."
Just then, a voice rang out.
A group of people walked briskly from a distance.
Qin Wu had excellent eyesight and could spot the person in the distance at a glance.
Among these people, the lowest-ranking was a Minister.
They all came after receiving the news, originally wanting to see how Qin Wu would deal with Prince Liuyun and the women of Prince Liuyun's mansion.
Unexpectedly, upon arrival, they heard that Qin Wu intended to use all the women of the Liuyun Prince's Mansion to reward the Imperial Guards.
If this gets out, wouldn't we become a laughing stock?
Even royalty will be affected.
Qin Wu remained silent, simply waiting quietly.
Before long, the officials arrived at the foot of the platform.
"Greetings, Divine Warrior King."
The officials bowed in respect.
"My lords, there is no need for such formalities."
Qin Wu said with a smile.
Who would have thought that this seemingly dignified and benevolent Divine Martial King was actually a madman?
"Your Highness, the women of the Liuyun Prince's Mansion cannot be sent to serve as female soldiers! Please reconsider, Your Highness."
Grand Tutor Fei Hong stood up and said loudly.
As the Grand Tutor, the emperor's teacher, he was the one who valued etiquette the most. In his view, Qin Wu's order was treasonous.
However, he knew Qin Wu's temperament and knew he couldn't force him; he could only try to discuss it with Qin Wu properly.
"Think twice? If I remember correctly, the laws of Eastern Qin state that rebels will have their entire family executed, men will be killed if they are taller than a cartwheel, and women will be exiled to the brothel."
"Minister of Justice, am I not mistaken?"
After Qin Wu finished speaking, he looked at the Minister of Justice with a half-smile.
The Minister of Justice originally stood at the back, wanting to remain invisible.
Unexpectedly, the Divine Martial King still set his sights on him.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward.
"Your Highness, the laws of Eastern Qin are indeed so."
The Minister of Justice managed to utter a single sentence with difficulty.
It should be noted that Qin Wu now has to deal with Liu Yun Wang, a royal prince.
This matter concerns the royal family, and if it is not handled properly, no one will have an easy time.
I was only here out of desperation.
"Grand Tutor, did you hear that? I simply replaced the Jiaofangsi with a military camp. Anyway, it's all about a thousand men on horseback and ten thousand men on the battlefield. In the military camp, I can also relieve the soldiers' worries."
"Without worries, the soldiers can focus wholeheartedly on training and protecting the palace. Why not?"
Qin Wu still had that same smiling face.
His words sounded reasonable, but somehow they also sounded a bit strange.
However, his words left the Grand Tutor somewhat at a loss for words.
As the Grand Tutor, his knowledge of the laws of Eastern Qin was no less than that of the Minister of Justice; otherwise, how could he have taught the princes in the past?
“King Shenwu, King Liuyun is, after all, a member of the royal family, and his female relatives are also members of the royal family. Giving them to the soldiers in this way would make the royal family lose all face.”
The Grand Tutor remained silent for a moment before finally speaking.
What he really wanted to say was that if these women were given to the soldiers...
After these soldiers have tasted the women of the royal family, will they no longer have the same awe and respect for the royal family as before?
If the Imperial Guard develops such a mentality, the palace will be in danger.
Some audacious individuals might even harbor inappropriate thoughts, which would cause trouble for the harem.
"Royalty? Who recognizes it? From the day his deeds were exposed, he ceased to be royalty."
"He, the Flowing Cloud King, is just a rebel, and his family is also a rebel."
"There are no traitors in my royal family."
Qin Wu sneered.
They even tried to persuade him by using his status as the Prince of Liuyun, but what does royal honor have to do with him?
He and his mother lived cautiously from childhood, and at the age of eight, he went to the battlefield to survive.
When did they ever enjoy the treatment befitting royalty?
Talking to him about the reputation of royalty now? Isn't that ridiculous?
In fact, Qin Wu was right. The moment Liu Yun Wang's plot to rebel was exposed, he was no longer a member of the royal family.
He wasn't even considered a commoner.
Therefore, no matter how he is treated, it will not have any impact on the royal family.
The Grand Tutor was at a loss for words.
"Soldiers, do you not like my reward?"
Qin Wu smiled gently again and asked the soldiers.
"I like it, thank you for the gift, Your Highness."
The soldiers all spoke up.
How could they not like such a reward?
"If you like it, then take it with you! Everyone, remember that for the long term, we must be careful to exercise restraint and try to let all the soldiers try it."
Qin Wu gave the instructions with a smile.
"Your Highness, rest assured, our Imperial Guard's medical staff are the best; they will absolutely not let them die."
A general shouted.
"it is good."
"Qi Ye, the evidence of Prince Liuyun's treason is conclusive. He will be beheaded in three days. Remember my rules: I will not kill you if you are carried over a cartwheel. Do not break my rules, understand?"
Qin Wu announced the fate of Liu Yun Wang directly in front of everyone.
Upon hearing Qin Wu's rules, everyone recalled the scene of Qin Wu's first execution of the King of Jiangnan.
If you're taller than a wheel, you won't kill me, but why don't you stand the wheel up upright?
If you lay it upside down, even a baby would be taller than a car wheel!
If you don't want to let someone off the hook, just say so. Is it really okay to play this game?
"Oh, by the way, King Liuyun has a fondness for females. In the next few days, find some widows of similar age for him. Of course, older widows are fine too, as long as they are willing. They should serve King Liuyun well. Also, give them a sum of money afterward so they can enjoy their old age in peace."
"Remember that the age increase cannot exceed ten years."
Qin Wu added one last sentence.
His words instantly made everyone present look very strange.
Find a widow of similar age to Prince Liuyun.
Although King Liuyun looks middle-aged, that's because he has practiced martial arts.
However, the real age of the Prince of Liuyun is over sixty, about the same age as His Majesty.
Isn't that woman, who is ten years older than Liuyun Wang, covered in wrinkles?
Just thinking about it sends chills down their spines.
"Your Highness, it might be difficult to find someone ten years older, and she might not be able to withstand Prince Liuyun's torment. What if she gets pregnant?"
Qi Ye's voice suddenly rang out.
Everyone was still reeling from Qin Wu's words.
Unexpectedly, Qi Ye would ask such a question.
A thought involuntarily popped into their minds: Are these two devils?
"Indeed, it's not easy to find someone in their seventies. However, I've heard that several of the nannies in Consort Xian's palace are around the same age and have also cultivated. It wouldn't be unfair to them to have them serve Prince Liuyun. If they have a son or daughter, they'll have someone to take care of them in their old age. Go and discuss this with Consort Xian."
Qin Wu pondered for a moment, then agreed with Qi Ye's statement and said earnestly.
But his words left everyone speechless.
The Divine Martial King even set his sights on the nanny who served Consort Xian.
They really wanted to say, "Your Highness, are you serious?"
"Your Highness is indeed wise. However, given Prince Liuyun's health, the nannies in Consort Xian's palace may not be enough. Perhaps I could ask a few more ladies to lend us some?"
Qi Ye said, feigning admiration.
"Good, this child is teachable. Let's do it this way, go!"
Qin Wu smiled and patted Qi Ye on the shoulder, praising him.
"Alright, I'll take care of it right away."
Qi Ye happily accepted the order, gathered dozens of imperial guards, and headed towards the palace.
Their actions left everyone dumbfounded.
Everyone knows that the Divine Martial King and his men are madmen, but this madness is just too much...
No one knew what words to use to describe the situation.
