Chapter 334: Whipping the Miao King's Evil Deeds
That night, Jun Mo and Shang Buqun, who had rested enough during the day, took advantage of the darkness and sneaked over the wall with the Sixth Prince out of the palace.
The next morning, the eighth princess' sedan chair, surrounded by palace maids and guards, headed for the altar.
Climbing onto the altar, Yu Jiuer, who was following behind the Eighth Princess, looked up and saw the Miao King grinning from ear to ear. She felt a surge of contempt in her heart: He smiles so sweetly, but he will make you so angry that you go crazy in a moment.
The Eighth Princess stood on the high platform with a gorgeous appearance, facing the Miaojiang civil and military officials and the Miaojiang people below, and said sincerely: "The Great Dong Dynasty and Miaojiang are making peace again, just to consolidate the alliance between the two countries and let the people of the two countries live a better life!
But some people are using the marriage to stir up trouble and damage the interests of both countries. Can we tolerate such people? "
The people below immediately shouted loudly: "No! No! No!"
Although the civil and military officials did not know why the Eighth Princess wanted to start the conversation in this way, they looked at each other and saw that their king did not say anything, so they followed the people and shouted, "No! No!"
The Eighth Princess continued, "Earlier, the King announced to the public that the Sixth Prince had passed away due to illness. For the sake of the alliance, the King had no choice but to bear the worldly infamy and marry this princess so that the marriage could continue. Is this true?"
The Miao Prime Minister immediately raised his hands to the sky and said, "It is true. For the sake of the people's well-being and the country's prosperity, our king would rather bear the infamy and marry the Eighth Princess to strengthen the alliance. Our king is great!"
"Your Majesty works day and night and cares deeply about the people. It is truly commendable!" another minister echoed loudly.
"Long live the king!" The civil and military officials and the people below shouted in unison.
The Eighth Princess raised a cold smile on her beautiful face and said loudly: "If that's the case, then the king is really a good king! But the fact is not so! The Sixth Prince is not dead! The Miaojiang King killed his son and took his daughter-in-law as his concubine. It is unjust!"
As soon as she said this, everyone below held their breath, and the square with tens of thousands of people suddenly fell silent!
The King of Miao Jiang hurriedly stepped towards the Eighth Princess, trying to stop her. When he was about to touch the Eighth Princess, he was suddenly taken hostage by Jun Mo and Shang Buqun who were beside the Eighth Princess.
Then the secret guards carried the Sixth Prince to the platform.
Caught off guard, the Miao King's pupils shrank slightly when he saw the Sixth Prince, and he immediately shouted: "Come! There's an assassin! Come--"
The shouting stopped abruptly, and Jun Mo directly pressed his acupoints, making him unable to move or speak.
The guards rushed over, and Jun Mo yelled, "Don't move! Otherwise, your king will be killed on the spot!"
"Prince Jing, what do you want to do?" The guard leader shouted nervously, "Do you, the Great Dong Dynasty, want to destroy the alliance?"
"It is you Miaojiang who want to destroy the alliance! Not us!" Shang Buqun said coldly, "Don't be impatient, and listen to what your Sixth Prince has to say!"
The Sixth Prince said loudly to the civil and military officials and the people below, "I am the Sixth Prince! The King of Miaojiang has locked me up in a water dungeon for ten years, and he also wants to take his daughter-in-law as his concubine. This is intolerable!
He was unworthy of his position and his methods were sinister. The Eighth Princess was unwilling, but he wanted to force her. Fortunately, Prince Jing of the Dadong Dynasty and the Prime Minister arrived in time to rescue the Eighth Princess!
He was the one who destroyed the alliance between the two countries from the beginning to the end! He has always held a grudge against the Great Dong Dynasty because of Princess Miao Xiang who married into the Great Dong Dynasty, and he was willing to do such a beastly thing at the risk of destroying the alliance!"
Under everyone's astonished gaze, the Eighth Princess echoed, "That's right! Many people knew that the one who married me on the wedding day was a rooster! The Miao King was afraid that his evil deeds would be exposed, so he wanted to make it known to the world after it was already done.
On the night of my wedding, I hit my head against the wall to protect my innocence. Fortunately, God was kind to me and did not take my life. I was able to meet the Sixth Prince and have the opportunity to punish the Miao King for his evil deeds!"
The people and officials below gasped, and then there was an uproar.
The Miao King was so embarrassed that his face turned red, but he couldn't utter a word to refute. He was so angry that his face turned red and black. It was very interesting!
The Third Prince was so angry that he flew up to the platform and pointed his sword at the Sixth Prince: "You are talking nonsense! You are a fake. My Sixth Brother died a few months ago. What do you want to do in the Great Dong Dynasty? You found someone who looks similar to you and pretends to be my Sixth Brother. Do you want to seize our Miao Territory?
Everyone! Please open your eyes and see clearly, don't listen to other people's slander! This is a conspiracy of the Great Dong Dynasty, don't be fooled by them! "
The Sixth Prince shouted at the top of his lungs, "I am the son of the foot-washing maid whom he favored when he was drunk—Miao Xiaoliu! I was a hostage from the Great Dong Dynasty when I was eleven years old. The people welcomed me all the way back to the palace. My appearance has not changed much. The people have sharp eyes. Don't try to confuse right and wrong and cover up the truth!"
Someone among the people below said, "I saw the Sixth Prince before, and he indeed looked like this!"
"Nonsense! You just look like my sixth brother. You and the Great Dong Dynasty are birds of a feather. You want to take over my Miao Territory!"
Jun Mo could no longer bear it and sneered: "Do you think that I would care about a Miao person like you? I would damage my reputation to come here to seek you? You think too highly of yourself! I just don't want my sister to be framed!"
Shang Buqun continued, "Everyone knows that the Sixth Prince's biological mother was a witch from the Witch Village, right? It is rumored that the Sixth Prince's biological mother died of illness when he was six or seven years old. In fact, she did not die of illness, but was killed by the Miaojiang King.
As for the details, the Sixth Prince's grandmother, the head of the Grandmother Village, has the most say! Now, let's invite her to come on stage and talk about the Sixth Prince's tragic life!"
Before Shang Buqun finished speaking, a black shadow flashed before everyone's eyes.
Wu Cuihua, the head of the Witch Village, flew onto the platform, and then, with her eyes fixed on the Sixth Prince, she staggered towards him.
Yu Jiuer saw her holding a bull-head cane, with bells all over her body, and her clothes somewhat resembled modern ancient Yunnan costumes.
Then, I heard her excited voice: "Child! Little Six? Is it really you? Did Prince Jing really rescue you?"
Wu Cuihua touched the Sixth Prince's face with a look of pity.
"It's me! Grandma, I finally got out of the water dungeon! Thanks to the Eighth Princess and the others!"
"Master Wu, now is not the time to reminisce about the past. Please tell the common people and the civil and military officials whether he is your grandson Miao Xiaoliu?" Jun Mo reminded at the right time.
Wu Cuihua turned her head to look at the Miaojiang King, her expression changed, and she said in a cold voice: "Miaojiang King, you will not die well. My grandson is still alive, but you announced to the public that he is dead! Even a tiger will not eat its own cubs. You are not worthy of being a father!
Everyone, listen, I will protect the reputation of the Witch Village in Miaojiang. This is my grandson, your Sixth Prince! If I say even a word of falsehood, let the Bull-Headed God punish me and make me no longer able to control the art of witchcraft! "
This oath was particularly serious for a witch. The people believed in the Minotaur, and after she swore this oath, they believed it to about 80%.
Someone among the people immediately plucked up the courage to speak out and condemn the king for his dishonest behavior.
Wu Cuihua took advantage of the situation and spoke out loudly about the tragic experience that the Sixth Prince had experienced over the years.
Now, the people were furious:
"What? Our king is such a person?"
"He can even treat his own son like this. He doesn't deserve our respect and support!"
"No wonder our lives didn't get better after the disintegration of the Northern Rong. Instead, they became even more difficult. It turns out that it's all because we have a king who is unworthy of his position and has evil intentions!"
"We ask him to abdicate and let someone capable become our king!"
“Abdicate! Abdicate! Abdicate!”
......
The people’s voices are getting louder and louder!
The Third Prince was panicked at this, but he didn't want to demote the Great Dong Dynasty so forcefully. He probably thought that since his father abdicated, it was his turn to take over, right?
"Who are you going to abdicate the throne to? Don't listen to the instigation of other countries and get angry and shout!" The Prime Minister of Miaojiang immediately shouted to stop them.
Some people supported the Third Prince, while others supported the Sixth Prince out of pity for him.
Yu Jiuer felt proud in her heart. Wasn't it her who instigated the Sixth Prince to seize the throne?
This is what the people want!
Jun Mo raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and reminded them: "Your Third Prince seemed to have made a mistake during the war with the Northern Rong. He became a deserter when his other brothers died in battle while defending their country. Is this true?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the people's support for the Third Prince weakened a lot.
Just when Yu Jiuer was secretly delighted and thought that everything was going well, the King of Miao shouted loudly, broke through the acupuncture points with his own willpower, let out a roar of "Ah", and started fighting with Jun Mo.
The guards who had surrounded them immediately raised their swords and stepped forward to help the Miao King kill the enemies and quell the rebellion.
