Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book Novel - Chapter 104

Chapter 104: Rebel?
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Because of Lin Qingye’s remind, Ke Zhan started to be suspicious of many ministers in the imperial court.

Ke Ruan felt that this opportunity was great, so he let Lin Qingye reveal it to General Long.

As for why it was General Long, it was really because this general and the prime minister had stood up against each other in the imperial court for a long time. Plus, what General Long hated the most was for the ministers to team up for their own benefits.

Under the authority of the Emperor, General Long used the information that they gave to him to catch many of the prime minister’s crew in the court. There were nearly ten people involved, and they were all in different government ministries.

Ke Zhan was furious and imprisoned all these people.

In the imperial court, the prime minister looked terribly embarrassed.

Pah!

Ke Zhan slapped heavily on the dragon table. Many of the memorials fell to the ground, and some even slid down the stairs.

The officials below immediately knelt down and did not dare to look up.

“You… really are fearless.” Ke Zhan was so angry that his chest heaved violently.

Ke Ruan was shocked. He didn’t want Ke Zhan to be sick because of this, so he quickly said, “Emperor Father, take care of yourself.”

Ke Zhan was stunned. The worry in Ke Ruan’s eyes was not fake which comforted his heart a lot. From what he saw in the past few days, it seemed that his son had finally grown up to be a man.

Ke Zhan looked at them, “Why are you all speechless like dead men?”

The prime minister lowered his head. There was a trace of resentment in his eyes. He had underestimated this general Long, because he had been watched by them for such a long time. If he hadn’t been late this time, he would have been caught already.

However, those people were always standing with him on political issues. Now that they were caught with the evidence, it was obvious that it had something to do with him.

He couldn’t wait any longer.

“General Long, investigate on this. I really want to see if these people are bold enough to rebel against me.”

General Long took the order from the Emperor.

Ke Ruan frowned and saw that Ke Zhan was about to go back. So he quickly said, “Emperor Father, I want to investigate on this matter with General Long.”

“Emperor Father, don’t worry. I just want to help, and I won’t cause trouble for General Long.” Ke Ruan was afraid that Ke Zhan would not agree, so he quickly added.

His past behavior was too shameless, so he really had no idea if Ke Zhan would agree or not.

Ke Zhan did not immediately agree to Ke Ruan, but his eyes fell on General Long.

“General Long, what about your thoughts?”

Ke Ruan felt relieved when Ke Zhan said this. On the surface, Ke Zhan seemed to be trying to hear General Long’s opinion, but in fact, he already agreed with Ke Ruan’s statement.

If the king wanted the minister to die, then the minister would had to die, let alone to agree with a small request.

General Long nodded. “Whatever your Majesty says.”

After the discussion ended, General Long directly blocked the prime minister Lei Zhen, and his expression was unexpectedly rare because it looked like he was taunting Lei Zhen.

Ke Ruan was a bit confused.

“Prime Minister, do you know what these people are planning to do?”

Lei Zhen had a smile on his face. “I wouldn’t know about this. His Majesty has already handed this matter over to General Long to investigate it. Therefore, you don’t need to ask me, and I apparently wouldn’t be able to help you.”

“Of course I know this.”

“Any other questions, General Long?” Lei Zhen’s expression became worse and worse.

General Long rarely had such a chance to taunt the prime minister, so he looked very arrogant. “No, but I’m not sure if there will be any problems that I need to discuss with you in the future.”

“Then we’ll talk about it later.” The prime minister waved his sleeves heavily, which brought a gust of wind, and his steps were so heavy as if he was letting out of some feelings.

General Long let out a “Bah” behind the prime minister, and his eyes were filled with disgust and certainty. What an old bastard!

Red Flame Country would never allow such people to exist. He must solve this matter and let the people in Red Flame Country live peacefully.
