"I am the main rule-maker and the biggest beneficiary. Because if this rule is followed, my descendants will be emperors for generations to come. Although the emperor of our Hong family does not have great power, how can it be said that it is also called the emperor, isn't it? According to Director Ci's theory just now, whoever benefits will pay the price, and then this price should be paid by me. ”

"But that's not the point, a crime is a crime, a crime is a crime, if Director Ci really violates the laws of the empire, I can't take the blame for him, this is a crime in itself. I don't think Director Ci committed a crime, or that he didn't commit enough crimes to be put here for trial. From my knowledge of the laws of the Empire, he should have committed the crime of harboring, and to whom? It was me who sheltered, yes, he sheltered me. ”

"It's not him who forged government documents, it's me! I was the one who used these forged documents to allow Director Ciqi to launch a secret investigation into the Imperial officials. The reason why I did this is completely a coincidence, and the court can go to Weng Xiaoyi and the maritime merchant surnamed Jin to confirm this. They were having dinner in a private room on the third floor of the Golden River Building, and I was there with two guards. As you may not know, my ears are very good, and I hear a lot what they say in the private room. But I can't confirm these things, and Imperial law doesn't allow a sitting official to be investigated without evidence. ”

"Of course, I can use my private capacity to force Minister Yi, Minister Kong, and Prime Minister Po to agree to my investigation. But this is a very bad habit, I can investigate Weng Xiaoyi today, and I can secretly spy on Huang Xiaoyi and Bo Xiaoyi tomorrow. I can do this, can't the Reich Chancellor do this? The Minister of Iraq of the Ministry of Supervision can't do that? Who lives in the world without an enemy? Especially as Imperial officials, they have to quarrel with the parliamentarians when they have nothing to do. If one day they go to investigate the councillors privately for some purpose, under the pretext of thinking about the Empire, then is there any need for our set of rules to continue to play? ”

"But I don't want to see an empire destroyer like Weng Xiaoyi continue to eat our country unharmed. So I compromised, I forged government documents and the signatures of ministers, authorized Director Ci to secretly investigate Weng Xiaoyi, and finally arrested them. But breaking the law is breaking the law, it doesn't matter for what reason to break the law, the purpose is only one aspect, I can't say that my original intention is good, I can not bear the consequences, this precedent can not be set either. ”

"Actually, I'm also selfish, because there is a clause in the Imperial Constitution that everyone may not be familiar with. This clause presumably meant that the current emperor was not subject to most imperial laws, mainly to avoid too much scandal. If the emperor of the empire, the symbol of the empire, commits a crime, and is sentenced to carry stones in the mines, and is as tired as a dead dog every day, it is also a shame for you to go out to meet foreigners. This time I'm going to use this law to exonerate myself, and the justices behind me can't convict me, Uncle Rong, isn't that so? "There was silence in the courtroom, and everyone was stunned by this divine turn, including the officials and parliamentarians of the Imperial Government. Things were different from what they had planned, and now no one knew how to deal with it, so they could only stare and open their mouths to listen to Emperor Hong's vernacular alone.

“…… There is indeed this law...... But Your Majesty is doing this, isn't it ......" The three Rong brothers didn't know Hong Tao for the first day, nor did they never see Hong Tao shamelessly. But in front of almost the high-level officials of the entire empire, they are still so shameless, so they don't know what to say.

"You have heard it, the justices have confirmed that there is indeed this law. Of course, there must be a lot of people who secretly scold me in my heart now. If it were something else, I wouldn't have thought about it at all, and it wasn't the first time I'd be shameless. But in this case, I still have to have some face, so I have to pay a little bit to be fair. Hong Tao picked up the gun in his hand again, interrupted the judge's questioning, and continued to talk about himself.

"Listen up, everybody, I'll just say it once, I won't repeat it. As the emperor of the empire, because I have violated the laws of the empire, I declare that from this moment on, the first emperor of the empire, Hong Tao, that is, myself, will abdicate! The Emperor will be succeeded by the current Crown Prince, Hong Jinhe. Abdication alone is not enough to pay the price I pay, so I have to symbolize my self-exile. It's too close, someone must say that I'm insincere, I've been an emperor for so many years, and I've never been poked in the back in state affairs, and I won't now! So I think the proximity of Cape Town is more appropriate, and more in line with the meaning of the word exile. When the new Emperor of the Empire returns from overseas, I will board a ship and take Saifei and his mother to the port of Cape Town. ”

"Be still, and listen to me finish! Even though I may be a little chatty and unlikable at times, this is the last time I will give you a speech, so I will give you some face. I hope that everyone will take this matter as a warning, not only Weng Xiaoyi's problem, but also how to implement, maintain, and improve the laws of the empire. Sometimes the law can be confusing, and sometimes it does expose flaws, but we need to take a long-term view. For now, this set of laws allows our empire to dominate the world, and it will not only ensure the prosperity of everyone, but also the safety of your lives and property. What more could you ask for? Can't you just give it a little more time and let it grow slowly? Whoever gives birth to a child, even if he has a good life, can't he grow into a twenty-year-old boy in three days, right? ”

"After I'm gone, everyone won't be idle, Prime Minister Po still has two proposals in his hand, and I'm sure many MPs have already read them. This time, I implore you, if you don't think they're too fucked up, just pinch your nose and pass. They are the last patches I put on the laws of the Empire, and I don't know if they work well or not, and I have to speak with the facts. ”

"Alright, that's it, I'm not going to be tried here. In fact, to be honest, Your Excellency the Chief Justice really doesn't have the right to try this case, how smart I must have been in the first place, I actually remembered to leave a way back for myself. Hahaha...... Let's go, Geya, Saifei, take your father, let's go home. Remember, your father will not be the emperor in the future, and the new emperor will be your brother Jinhe, don't call it wrong, understand? "Any thing, no matter how serious it is, may sound very unserious when it comes to Hong Tao's mouth. If he is serious and speaks official words, then his remarks are likely to be nonsense.

"Your Majesty, you can't ......" Before most of the people in the courtroom could react, Hong Tao pulled the two children, Senia and Baixiang followed behind, and walked towards the door of the court. The two old ladies of the Weng family were one of the few people who knew about this in advance, and they stopped the few elders next to them with their eyes, but they couldn't affect Wen Nan in the second row, and what he just realized still happened.

"Geya, do you see, your Uncle Wen is not as sensible as you, you can't learn from him! Whoever calls me emperor again is an insult to my son, and I will use a gun to defend the honor of Jinhe! Hong Tao didn't want to listen to anyone's nonsense, and after saying the word abdication, he found that he didn't feel sorry at all, but was quite happy. That's enough, everything I do in my life is measured by whether I'm happy or not, and this feeling shows that this choice is right. As for what others think, it doesn't matter, how do you look at love, it hurts to care about yourself?

Hong Tao suddenly announced his abdication, not only did no one in the court react, but even Senya and Bai Xiang were confused. My husband usually likes to joke and play all kinds of pranks, and he really doesn't like to be an emperor. But no matter how unreliable people are, there is no one to joke about this issue. Since it's not a joke, the husband is telling the truth. But an emperor, if you don't do it, you won't do it? The problem is that if her husband is not the emperor, then the title of queen on her head will be gone, even if she is not the queen of the main palace, she is also the queen, and if you say no, it will be gone?
