C348 Wang Qingyun Who Had Been Promoted to the Wu Hou Was Eventually Abandoned

And the Emperor's words shocked all the officials present, not for any other reason but for not being able to enter the court as an official and for their children and grandchildren to be unable to become an official, what a severe punishment. This meant that not only could Prince Mu not enter the court to be an official, even his generations were not fated to be officials.

"This official thanks the Lord for his grace!" After saying that, Mu Qingyun raised both his hands over his head and kowtowed to the Emperor.

"Emperor, this. . . " Hearing the Emperor's decision, General Qu still wanted to say something but was stopped by the Emperor with a wave of his hand.

"General Qu, I know what you want to say. Prince Mu's meritorious deeds cannot be buried but he must be punished. His meritorious deeds cannot be matched. This is my decision. We are not allowed to discuss this any longer. Men, announce the decree. " The Emperor turned around and returned to the Dragon Throne to sit down.

"Yes, this servant obeys the decree!" After saying that, Shunzi bowed to the Emperor, turned around and walked a few steps forward, opening the Imperial Decree in his hands.

"Qu Jinpeng obeys the decree. "

"This official accepts the Imperial Decree. " After saying that, General Qu once again knelt down.

"By the will of the heavens, the Emperor declares that General Qu has led troops to pacify the chaos, and his meritorious service is outstanding. For the past few years, he has been loyal and devoted, and has made great contributions to Great Ming. After I have decided, I will promote General Qu to Wuhou Prince, and his annual salary will be 2000 stones, and he will be in charge of all the soldiers in the world. Here! " After saying that, Shunzi closed the Imperial Decree and slowly walked down from the stage to stand in front of General Qu.

"Prince Qu, receive the Imperial Decree. " Seeing General Qu standing there in a daze, Little Shun whispered to General Qu and woke him up.

"Thank the Emperor. Long live the Emperor. " As he spoke, he raised both hands above his head to receive the Imperial Decree. He never would have thought that today's reward would actually promote him to become a Royal Highness. This was a great honor. For so many years, Mu Qingyun was the only outsider who had the fortune to become the Two Character King. Now, he had become a prince as well. This made him feel like he was dreaming.

"Zhao Gongxun, hear the decree. " Shunzi walked back and opened another imperial edict.

"This official will listen to the decree. "

"By the will of the heavens, the Emperor declares that in this expedition, Zhao my close bravely captured the leader of the rebels and played a decisive role in the victory of the war. This is truly a great merit. I am deeply gratified. I hereby promote you to rank 3 Zhao Yong General, your monthly salary is 35 stones. "

"Thank you, Emperor. Long live the Emperor. "

"Mu Qingyun, hear the decree. " After handing Zhao Gongxun's Imperial Decree to him, Shunzi took out the last Imperial Decree and opened it.

"Sinner Mu Qingyun, accept the Imperial Decree. "

"By the will of the heavens, the Emperor declares. This expedition was led by your mistake. Due to the lack of precautionary measures for the unknown path, almost all of the Cloud Guardian were killed in battle. The losses incurred were immeasurable, and I was deeply disappointed. Although you have made great contributions, your contributions are not worth mentioning. After careful consideration, I decided that the death penalty would be exempt from death, and I will not spare you. I hereby revoke Pingyun Prince's position. He will be demoted to a commoner, and he will be moved out of the mansion within ten days. From now on, he and his descendants will not be allowed to step foot in the Imperial Court. This is the imperial court! "

" Thank you, Emperor. Long live the Emperor. " After saying that, Mu Qingyun received the Imperial Decree and stood to the side.

From this moment on, Pingyun Prince was still in the past. The era that belonged to Mu Qingyun had also become history in a few short years. At this moment, everyone had mixed feelings in their hearts. Some were happy, some were disappointed, some gloated, and some lowered their heads and sighed.

The morning court had dispersed. Mu Qingyun was walking indifferently on the way back with the imperial edict in his hand. There were people pointing and pointing behind him from time to time. Mu Qingyun, on the other hand, turned a deaf ear to them and turned a blind eye to them.

"What are you doing? As an official appointed by the Imperial Court, what is the point of pointing and pointing like this?" At this moment, Qu Jinpeng's voice came from behind. When everyone saw Qu Jinpeng, who was now a prince, they did not dare to say anything and left in a hurry.

"Qing Yun, wait a moment. " Seeing the crowd leave, Prince Qu quickly caught up to Qingyun.

"Mr Qu, what's the matter?"

"Come, let's go drink. " After saying that, he pulled Mu Qingyun and left.

"Wait for Mr Qu. " Mu Qingyun quickly pulled his hand.

"What's wrong?"

"Mr Qu, there's a long way to go. Today, I have to go back and clean up first. If big brother wants to drink, come to the Imperial Residence at night. Wouldn't it be better if we drink to our heart's content? "

"Alright. You go back and clean up first. I will go to the Imperial Residence to find you at night. We will not return until we are drunk. "

"Okay, then I'll go back first. " As he spoke, Qing Yun turned around and left.

Looking at Mu Qingyun's figure, General Qu also felt a deep sense of loneliness. Back then, Tianyu, Mu Qingyun, and him were chatting and laughing happily in the restaurant.

However, he didn't know where Tian Yu was now, and Qing Yun had been demoted to a commoner. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to see him again in the future, and he would be the only one left. This made him suddenly feel tired and tired. This made him feel unhappy about being given the title of Wuhou Prince, and he could only helplessly sigh and return to his General's Mansion.

Mu Qingyun had returned to his mansion, but before he could reach it, he could see Loong Feng and Loong Yun looking at him from afar. They were probably waiting for him to come back.

When they saw his figure, the two of them walked quickly to him and said, "Your Highness, you have finally returned. It seems like the Emperor hasn't killed all of you. "

"Let's go in first and then talk. " As he spoke, he brought the two brothers and walked in together, arriving at the main hall.

"Loong Feng, Loong Yun, from now on, I am no longer a prince. The Emperor has ordered us to move out of this place within ten days. It was I who implicated you and caused you to lose your home. " After sitting down, Qing Yun looked at the two of them and spoke.

"What!? Your Royal Highness, what did you say? What did the Emperor do to Your Highness?" Hearing Qingyun's words, the two people opened their mouths wide in shock. Initially, they thought that Qingyun would be fine when he returned, but they did not expect that it was actually this result.

Qing Yun did not say anything else. He just extended his hand and passed the Imperial Decree in his hand to the two brothers. After the two of them took the Imperial Decree and read through the sequence of events, they understood the sequence of events. Frowning, they closed the Imperial Decree.

"Fascinating ruler, this is a Fascinating ruler. This clearly shows that he is trying to get rid of the millstone and kill the donkey. " Loong Yun could not help but say.

"Shut up, third brother. Be careful that you can hear me from the other side of the wall. " Upon hearing these words, Loong Feng quickly stepped forward to stop him. This was a treasonous act, and he was going to kill them all. Although this was the Imperial Residence, the fewer people who knew about this, the better. Otherwise, they would be sentenced to death for being disrespectful.

"So be it. Anyway, we had already expected this outcome. It's no big deal. Then, Your Highness, what should we do next? Are we going to re-emerge from the Pugilistic World?"

"I am going to my home to sweep a tomb. I have never swept a tomb for my parents ever since I was sensible. Since I have time, I want to sweep a tomb for them first and pay my respects. "

"Then what about our prince?"

"General Qu will come tonight. When he comes, I will discuss with him and let the two of you stay at his place for the time being. When I come back from sweeping the tombs, we will set foot in the Jianghu together. "
