Chapter 945 (Completely Chaotic)

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

In the face of Hong Batian's questioning, Luo Hu responded with a cold voice, "The crime of assaulting the city guards!"

"Assaulting the city guards! Lord Luo! How come I hear others say it's the guards assaulting people, and my son was just defending himself!" Hong Batian's words elicited cheers from some people behind him, indicating a trend of rebellion.

Luo Hu was a bit out of sorts today. If possible, he really wanted to cut down these people.

But could he? Clearly, it was not feasible. The prosperity of the Voidless Empire today was largely due to their efforts.

That's true; the Voidless Empire was created by Ye Hua and his subordinates, but not everything was done by them. Most matters were handled by the subordinates, and only when things couldn't be resolved did they deploy their subordinates.

However, the current subordinates were just idling around. Because the ecosystem of the Voidless Empire was well-arranged, it only required time to settle.

And they were the first group to contribute.

The emperor now advocates love and peace; Luo Hu couldn't make decisions independently. In Hong Batian's eyes, the powerless Luo Hu was easier to bully, as if he wouldn't dare to do anything to them.

"Lord Luo, my son has been beaten to death by the guards! How do we explain this?" Hong Batian continued, "Also, Lord Luo, supporting the other faction, what does that mean? Does Lord Luo intend to go against the will of heaven and support outsiders? If this matter reaches the emperor, I'm afraid..."

Hong Batian, being the richest, managed to leave Luo Hu speechless. It seemed as if Luo Hu had supported the other faction, which was not true.

However, the current situation seemed to point fingers at the opposition, and Luo Hu didn't know how to handle it.

What he did today might disrupt the emperor's plan. It seemed like he was in trouble.

"Lord Luo, give my son justice and justice to the world!" Hong Batian knelt down, and the people behind him echoed, "Lord Luo, give my son justice and justice to the world!"

Luo Hu took a deep breath. Even if they were arrested, would they be released once they entered? What about the face of the Voidless Empire? Could wealthy individuals simply take people away?

So, releasing them was not an option!

"Detain these people for 15 days, then let them go," Luo Hu said in a stern voice, not wanting to deal with it anymore. 'Why hasn't the Banner Master returned? She loves playing this game the most.'

"What! 15 days!"

"Lord Luo, you're detaining humans for those outsiders!"

"Lord Luo, think twice!"

"Lord Luo, what about my son who died unjustly!" Hong Batian shouted in a deep voice.

'Damn, your dead son has nothing to do with me. You've actually come to me for justice. I don't care if I kill you along with him.'

Luo Hu coldly said, "This lord needs to rest. Please leave!"

Standing among the yellow-armoured soldiers, they forcibly expelled everyone, but these people became even more brazen.

"I want to meet the emperor."

"I want to file a complaint!"

"Luo Hu has a relationship with the outsiders!"

Sitting inside, Luo Hu wished he could kill them all. These reckless flies should be swatted to death by himself and then soaked in a septic tank for a lifetime.

Luo Hu now didn't know who to turn to, feeling quite lost. Things seemed to be getting out of control.

Indeed, it was a bit out of control.

After Hong Batian went back, he paid people to spread rumours within the Voidless Empire.

Luo Hu colluded with the foreign race, slaughtered humans, and so on.

However, upon hearing about Luo Hu's actions, the foreign race supporters were cheering, solidifying the accusations against Luo Hu.

A day later, things got even more brutal.

Rioting!

Inside the city, there were actually ten thousand people rioting, holding banners and protesting in various ways.

There were even hundreds of people sitting in front of the imperial palace, and some resorted to self-immolation. You could say it was terrifying!

Luo Hu was completely at a loss, quickly rushing into the imperial palace to find Mu Ran.

Mu Ran, upon hearing Luo Hu's account, almost fainted. Originally, she intended to gradually improve the image of the outsiders in everyone's hearts, but now, not only did it not change, but it became even more profound.

Even her intervention as the fake Saintess was useless now. With over ten thousand people protesting in the city, it was undoubtedly slapping the face of the Voidless Empire. Those sitting in silent protest were forcing the emperor to step in.

Everything was undermining the Voidless Empire.

Luo Hu was puzzled. Where did Wei Chang, Bai Gu, and others go?

It turned out they went out to build relationships, and it was relationships with the outsiders, as both sides needed to put on a show.

But now the problem was serious, threatening the very foundation, so they had to be called back.

After receiving the message, Wei Chang rushed back immediately. The issue was indeed severe.

A meeting was convened by the subordinates without the presence of the emperor. Mu Ran, of course, couldn't participate as she was still unaware of Wei Chang and Tang Wei's true identities.

With the emperor absent, Wei Chang took control of the situation. As for Lie Gu, he was good at fighting; similar to Luo Hu.

After hearing the situation, Wei Chang fell into contemplation, pacing back and forth while stroking his chin.

Everyone looked at Wei Chang.

However, Wei Chang spoke in a deep voice, "Duo Fushi, do you have any good suggestions?"

Duo Fushi, standing in the back row, was dumbfounded. 'Why do they always have to come to me? If things are handled well, I can get praised by Your Honor. The problem is, everyone is helpless, and they want me, Duo Fushi, to bear this blame.'

'Why are you all so malicious? Have you decided to make me, Duo Fushi, the scapegoat?'

Li Hun also looked at her husband with a pitiful expression. It's so miserable; not only is he bullied by her at night, but he also gets bullied by everyone during the day. Her husband is really pitiful.

Duo Fushi shouted loudly, "I am ignorant."

Losing face is better than being scolded by the emperor.

Wei Chang took a deep breath, "Anyone else?"

Everyone remained silent. If there were a solution, they wouldn't have called you back.

"It seems we only have one way!" Wei Chang said coldly.

Lie Gu curiously asked, "Wei Chang, what is the solution?"

"Plead Your Honor to come out."

Indeed, it was a good solution. As long as Ye Hua is willing to come out, all problems can be solved.

"I agree." Lie Gu was the first to raise his hand. Rather than messing around here, it's better to quickly bring out the Emperor.

All the subordinates agreed.

Strength lies in numbers. They all surged towards Ye Hua's sleeping palace, with an expression of being ready to face death. If they don't bring the Emperor out today, they will die as an apology.

Daji looked at all these people rushing over, a bit surprised. 'What are they doing?

The master is enjoying marital bliss with the madam!

How can they disturb him?'

Wei Chang looked at Daji and bowed, saying, "Miss Daji, I have an important matter to report to the emperor. Please inform him."

"The Emperor is busy right now, it's not possible!" Daji said casually.

Sometimes, even if the Emperor can't see, it's because of "eunuch reasons," as the eunuchs won't allow it. [In historical contexts, eunuchs were often involved in palace affairs, including controlling access to the emperor. Even if the emperor is unaware or unable to see a situation, it's not due to the emperor's preoccupation or negligence but rather because the eunuchs, who hold some administrative control, are preventing access or information from reaching the emperor.]
