Chapter 2080: Does She Really Mean It?

rform'""I beat him up. In the eyes of others, he was furious and embarrassed, turned his back on me, left the camp, and disappeared."...An Xuetang looked at him in a little shock. How could he say som...After saying this, Mo Yunze looked thoughtfully at the guards beside him.

The guard immediately understood, slightly nodded and took two steps back.

In a short while, someone from the crowd suddenly spoke up:

“Yes, the Princess of Beijang. The sudden death of the Second Prince must be a warning from heaven. My husband was only twenty-eight years old and seemed perfectly healthy, but he suddenly passed away the night before yesterday without any warning. This must be divine punishment! Your Highness, you must take this seriously!”

As soon as the woman finished speaking, other people chimed in one after another.

An Xuetang remained silent and did not stop those around her. She simply listened quietly, her expression unchanged.

All these people are saying is that someone in their family died suddenly and mysteriously.

So, now all the common people believe in Mo Yunze and Mo Hengzhi's lies, thinking it is heaven's punishment.

Her peace and tranquility brought disaster.

As more and more commoners spoke up, Mo Junyi's face grew increasingly grim.

It seems that Mo Yunze has indeed been planning for this play for a long time.

These people's talk of the dead is not about unexplained deaths.

It was probably that Mo Yunze sent people to assassinate, in order to incite these innocent people to make a scene at the gate of Beijang Wangfu.

Listening to this crowd clamoring, each one shouting for the Prince of Beijng to hand over the two children.

Mò Jūn Yì clenched his fists tightly. Just as he was about to lose his temper and order Yun Sì and the others to intimidate these commoners...

"An Xuetang suddenly smiled, and said slowly, "Since everyone thinks that my two children are unlucky stars, then fine, just kill them all! Let's see if this capital city will become better after we kill them."

Everyone: "!"

All eyes were instantly fixed on An Xuetang, filled with surprise.

Those commoners were so shocked that they forgot their manners, staring intently at An Xuetang.

Not to mention that Mo Yunze and Mo Heng and the others were incredibly incredulous.

As soon as An Xuetang said this, even Yun Si and Mo Junyi beside her were stunned for a moment.

They were clearly all baffled as to why she would say such things, about killing Pingping and An'an

Mo Junyi pursed his lips, looking at An Xuetang with a thoughtful gaze.

Mo Yunze and Mo Heng looked at each other, then Mo Yunze curled his lips in sarcasm, looking at An Xuetang with suspicion. "The Northern Border Princess really means what she says"

"Of course." After saying that, she turned her head to look at Ning'er and raised her chin at her.

Ninger immediately understood and, after curtseying to An Xue Tang, turned and entered the Prince's mansion.

While An Xuetang glanced at Mo Yunze and Mo Hengzhi, her eyes, which betrayed no emotion, swept over the crowd of commoners.

It was obvious that no one present believed she would give up the child, so one by one they looked at her with suspicion.

Faced with their confusion, An Xuetang just smirked and said leisurely, "You don't have to look so surprised. After all, our King of Beijng is still a member of the royal family."

Over the years, he has guarded his homeland with his soldiers, fiercely repelling invaders to ensure the safety and stability of the people of Tianba, as well as the royal family.

"Since you all say that my two children are harbingers of disaster, that keeping them will lead to national ruin and widespread suffering, if that were truly the case, you wouldn't need to speak these words. My King of Beijiang would not let those two children live."

After all, everyone knows that my lord isn't the kind to sacrifice everything for the throne, disregarding any life. He always cares for the people. If sacrificing his own children could save the entire Tianba nation, no matter how sad and unwilling he would be, he would still make the tough decision.

These words from An Xuetang immediately darkened Mo Yunze and Mo Hengzhi's faces.

She's clearly implying that Mo Yunze and Mo Heng are incompetent, always vying for the throne with scheming and deceit. However, when it comes to defending the borders and leading troops in battle, they pale in comparison to Mo Yunjing.

And the common people, after hearing An Xue Tang finish speaking, looked at each other in astonishment, but also felt that what she said was very reasonable.

The King of Beijiang has guarded the border for many years. For the sake of the people of Beijiang City to live a peaceful and prosperous life, he bravely went to the battlefield regardless of his life and death.

Such a person, if they knew their child was a harbinger of disaster, would bring ruin to the entire Tianba Kingdom. I imagine King Beijiang would make a difficult choice no matter what. He would surely do everything in his power to ensure the safety of the people of Tianba.

After An Xuetang finished speaking, Mo Yunze suddenly snorted and said unhappily, "Then I hope the Princess of Beijang will keep her word. Don't let the people of the capital be disappointed, lest the reputation of King Bei Jiang be ruined."

As for his words, An Xuetang ignored them.

At this, he gave Mo Junyi beside him a reassuring look.

Mò Jūn Yì pursed his lips, as if wanting to speak but holding back.

But he ultimately chose to believe An Xue Tang's words. He knew that in this world, no one cared about Ping Ping and An An more than An Xue Tang.

So no matter what she does or says, there's a reason behind it. Just wait patiently and see.

During the waiting period, An Xue Tang's murky gaze fell upon the kneeling populace, a cold smile curling her lips.

She, of course, knew that now the power of the monarchy was based on the divine right of kings.

In this era, "the Mandate of Heaven" is the best propaganda tool for a ruling dynasty.

So not only do modern people utilize public opinion, but look at these ancients, they did too!

Even if she doesn't understand history, she knows about the Mandate of Heaven and the concept of Heaven's response to human actions.

They believed that heaven could influence human affairs and foreshadow misfortune, while human actions could also affect heaven, causing it to bestow rewards or punishments accordingly.

She also knew that what they called a royal twin birth was a sign of great misfortune. To put it plainly, it was because the royal family was involved in a struggle for power.

The struggle for succession inevitably comes with bloodshed.

This is actually the greed of human nature.

But they perversely attribute such greed to a warning from heaven, considering the twins born into the royal family as evil spirits and demons!

Everyone believed that any disaster occurring domestically was the result of the royal family's actions, violating heaven's will and being unrighteous.

Therefore, Heaven sent calamities to denounce and warn.

On the contrary, if there is peace and prosperity for the country and good weather conditions, Heaven will send down auspicious signs to bless its government's harmonious rule and national well-being.

If that's the case, then An Xuetang will fight fire with fire!

……

Ning'er went back into the mansion and came out again in less than half a quarter of an hour.

This time, she wasn't alone. She was followed by Shou'er and Kang'er, both holding babies in their arms.

At the sight of these people, the surprise in everyone's eyes deepened!

So the Northern Border Princess is telling the truth She... would truly kill her own child

Does she really have the heart to do itto the emperor, and softly coaxed him:"Your Majesty, I see that Master Ye's complexion is quite pale. If Your Majesty has nothing else to attend to, perhaps it would be best for Master Ye to return ho...
