The Future Empress Is Given Death At The Beginning, And I Become Stronger When I Am Stupid.

Purple Kite

In the blink of an eye, it has been seven days.

In Chang'an City, the storm not only did not stop, but instead grew more intense.

It seems as if there is a hidden hand behind the scenes, fueling the flames and guiding public opinion.

Coupled with the suspicion that Jiang Luoshen, the daughter of the Northern Guardian King, has declared rebellion, it has caused a ripple effect.

Both inside and outside Chang'an City, there is an atmosphere of gloom and despair.

"The Great Qin Emperor is incompetent, while the Northern Guardian King is loyal and righteous, yet he has been framed and fallen victim to treachery!"

"The tyrant emperor is heartless, cruel, and excessively bloodthirsty!"

"The Northern Guardian King is a hero of the northern region, and we will not allow anyone to tarnish his honor!"

"The Great Qin is doomed!"

In the streets and alleys, such discussions abound.

Everyone is filled with righteous indignation, a mix of sadness and anger, wishing to storm into the imperial palace and seek justice for the Northern Guardian King.

Even some officials from the court, under the guidance of certain individuals, personally come forward to denounce the tyrant emperor.

Among them, the scholars and academicians of the Literary Ocean Academy, such as Guo Moye, are the most radical.

In order to express their admiration for the Northern Guardian King, they personally write impassioned articles, vehemently condemning the tyrant emperor.

"Qin Mu, the Great Qin Emperor, is lascivious and incompetent, truly unfortunate for the Great Qin!"

"The heartless emperor has stirred up grievances among the people of the northern region!"

"The Northern Guardian King is unparalleled in loyalty and righteousness, a shining example as the Minister of Rites!"

Numerous articles, spreading throughout Chang'an City, are increasingly severe and heart-wrenching, each word striking at the core.

Some of these articles even bring tears to the eyes of the people of Chang'an, as they empathize deeply.

"The Great Qin is finished!"

"Qin Mu, the lascivious and incompetent, deserves a thousand deaths!"

"Hmph! This waste is simply unworthy of being an emperor!"

In Chang'an City, countless people roar with anger.

The courtiers are stirred up, united as one.

However, this frenzy belongs only to the common people. As for the noble families, they become even more cautious and careful in their words and actions.

Because behind this situation, it is clear that someone is fueling the flames.

And it is not just anyone.

As a result, many noble families hesitate and struggle, unsure of which side to stand with.

After all, this decision concerns the life and death of their families and leaves no room for carelessness.

For a time, various hidden currents surge, creating an atmosphere of anomaly.

...

"Qin Mu, your end has come!"

At this moment, in a luxurious mansion in Chang'an City, Qin Shijing sits in the main hall, sneering repeatedly.

This hidden hand behind the scenes is naturally him, or rather, them.

The Great Qin Dynasty has a total of three princes.

Qin Shijing, the Sun Scale King.

Qin Shijie, the South River King.

And Qin Wuji, the Unfettered King.

Among them, Qin Shijing and Qin Shijie are blood brothers, born to the same mother, and have an inseparable relationship.

As for Qin Wuji, like Qin Mu, he is the only son.

However, Qin Mu was born to the empress, so his status and position are slightly higher than Qin Wuji's.

But Qin Wuji has never been interested in power and the throne, rarely participating in court affairs. He doesn't even have a formal fiefdom or personal guards, always residing in the imperial city, leading a leisurely life.

He is truly an idle prince.

At least... on the surface.

Therefore, among the three princes, only the Sun Scale King and the South River King are the most active.

The Sun Scale King has always been stationed in Chang'an City, actively participating in various court affairs.

While the South River King commands hundreds of thousands of troops, guarding the southern border of the Great Qin, preventing invasion by foreign barbarians.

However, the southern border has a natural barrier known as the forbidden land of life, making it rare for foreign barbarians to invade the Great Qin from the south, so there is not much danger.

So, the reputation of South River King is not as loud as that of Northern Guardian King, but he can still be considered a prominent figure in Great Qin, with considerable influence.

And now, South River King Qin Shijie has quietly returned to the capital and joined forces with Sun Scale King Qin Shijing, who is his older brother, to plan all of this.

"Brother, although Qin Mu is incompetent, he still holds a secret guard and can even revive the Quasi-Emperor weapon. Moreover, the ancestral tomb may have the old ancestor supporting him. If we push him too hard, it may bring us trouble!"

At this moment, in the hall, Qin Shijie frowned slightly, showing some concern.

"Don't worry, the Quasi-Emperor weapon and the old ancestor are the foundation of Great Qin. They won't be easily used until the last moment."

"Besides, we just want to tarnish Qin Mu's image among the people. We don't expect to directly force him off the throne now!"

Qin Shijing shook his head and said.

"Oh? So, brother, you have another plan!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Shijie's brow relaxed.

"Don't worry, we won't personally take action. There are people who will charge into battle for us."

A sinister smile appeared on Qin Shijing's lips as he slowly spoke.

He had been preparing for this conspiracy against Qin Mu for a long time.

As early as a few years ago, he had secretly laid the groundwork.

Using his network of relationships, he bribed a group of scholars from the Literary Ocean Academy and fabricated charges against Qin Mu.

Back then, the reason he didn't expose Qin Mu was to wait for this moment.

"So, brother, you were prepared long ago!"

Upon hearing Qin Shijing's words, Qin Shijie instantly understood Qin Shijing's plan and a look of joy appeared on his face.

"The people from the Literary Ocean Academy have already started writing articles and stirring up public sentiment."

"I have kept this matter very secretive, and there is no way to trace it back to us."

"As for the secret guard... now that the daughter of Northern Guardian King, Luo Shen, has declared rebellion, it won't be long before they are completely depleted."

"When the secret guard is exhausted, we will kill Qin Mu and seize the Quasi-Emperor weapon!"

"Perhaps when the public opinion turmoil reaches its peak, we can even have the old ancestor step forward and abolish Qin Mu's throne!"

Qin Shijing said coldly, his eyes flashing with a chilling and ruthless light.

"That's right!"

Qin Shijie nodded in agreement.

"This time, he won't be able to escape!"

Qin Shijing snorted coldly, his tone filled with a murderous intent.

Qin Mu, as the legitimate eldest son of the former emperor and the candidate for crown prince.

However, he lacked the qualities that a crown prince should have. He was indulgent in pleasure, extravagant, and lustful.

On the other hand, Qin Shijie had always been diligent, governing with care, and devoted himself to the imperial family.

But in the end, he was still denied the throne.

He was filled with resentment.

Now he finally waited for this day to come, to take back everything he had lost!

He wanted Qin Mu to taste the bitterness of losing everything.

And as Qin Shijie looked at his brother, who seemed to be immersed in some kind of fantasy, a faint and imperceptible smirk appeared on his face.

At this moment, the two of them, each harboring their own sinister intentions, revealed their ferocious faces, full of confidence.

...

At this moment, chaos reigned in Chang'an City.

The common people flooded the streets, cursing Qin Mu mercilessly, causing a scene of utter devastation.

Meanwhile, the scholars from the Literary Ocean Academy wrote denunciations of Qin Mu's evil deeds in the teahouses and restaurants.

Guo Moye even declared that Qin Mu was a demon from beyond the domain, plotting to overthrow the imperial order by harming Northern Guardian King, and so on...

In short, all kinds of defamatory words were pouring out endlessly.

At this moment, in the Guo residence.

Guo Moye sat in the guest room, holding the denunciations in his hand, extremely satisfied.

These denunciations were enough to completely tarnish Qin Mu's reputation and make it plummet to the bottom.

"Master, are you sure it's okay to have them march on the streets like this..."

The plump and graceful Lady Guo looked at her husband, wanting to speak but hesitating.

She felt that something was not right.
