Dragon's Origin

The Emperor was truly frightened, scared by the terrible scenarios and consequences Wang Sheng described.

The fact that a wise and ambitious Emperor dedicated to governing could be frightened could only be attributed to one reason: this matter had the full potential to become a reality.

The power of the royal family is indeed inferior to that of the various feudal lords. This is a fact, at least unchangeable within a few years or even more than a decade. That is to say, the various feudal lords are fully capable of doing these things.

As for whether the feudal lords would be willing to do so, there's no need to ask. In the past, the various aristocratic families, and now the feudal lords, when have they ever been truly loyal to the royal family? Given the opportunity, they would never mind raising the royal family like pigs.

The reason why no one has done this yet is actually due to two key points. One is that the prestige of the royal family, that is, the Emperor, has not reached the point where it can be used to seize the moral high ground. The other is that no feudal lord has thought of this yet.

Wang Sheng had already made the first point clear, that it would take a few years, waiting for the Emperor's prestige to increase before taking action. Unless the Emperor and the royal family are willing to maintain such a situation unchanged from now on, otherwise, as they become stronger, they will definitely face such risks.

The second point is even more ridiculous. If the feudal lords can't think of it, wouldn't Wang Sheng remind them? From the fact that Wang Sheng could easily come up with an idea to play the Baoqing Yu Tang, who sent assassins after him, to death, it can be seen that Wang Sheng would not mind casually giving any feudal lord an idea and then letting them seek justice for Wang Sheng himself for being humiliated by the royal family.

Never has anyone made the Emperor so fearful. He dared not take action. If someone wanted to deal with him, they wouldn't even need to lift a finger. Just a few words would throw the world into chaos. Wang Sheng wouldn't even need to use such a drastic measure. As long as he publicized the Emperor's conferral of the title of Ever Victorious Marquis, those feudal lords would be more wary of the royal family in the future.

It must be known that Wang Sheng still has the imperial decree in his hands, which is evidence. Once it is announced, the Emperor will lose all credibility. Either he steps down immediately, or the royal family will become a laughing stock from then on. Neither outcome is what the Emperor wants to see.

Little Qi is a pig, and those few important officials are even bigger fools. Are such people considered soft persimmons to be easily manipulated? How dare you openly plot against him? How dare you really do it?

Now the Emperor wishes he could immediately押押 all those involved in this matter before Wang Sheng, allowing Wang Sheng to dispose of them to appease Wang Sheng's anger. Unfortunately, the identity he has to play now is just a merchant, not the Emperor.

Basically, when that time comes, you can use your relationship with that feudal lord to demand your debts from the royal family," Wang Sheng finally felt that the intimidation was almost enough, so he opened his mouth: "Including principal and interest, you say how much it is, and the royal family, from top to bottom, if they dare to renege on half a cent, you come to me, and I will help you make up ten times a hundred times. If you are greedy, just report ten times a hundred times the debt, and they won't dare not give it to you. Isn't that the logic?

This time, it was the Emperor's turn to look at Wang Sheng as if he were a monster. After staring at Wang Sheng blankly for a while, the Emperor asked Wang Sheng with some disbelief, "You helped me come up with such a big idea just to help me get back the little gold coins the royal family owes me?"

"Ah!" Wang Sheng nodded very affirmatively, giving the Emperor a very clear answer: "Didn't we start by talking about the debt? What did you think? Look, I told you to be patient for a few years, then find a feudal lord to find a way, and finally collect the debt, and you'll get it for sure, right? Is it useful? Didn't I lie to you? Look, this is an idea to collect debts, isn't it what you need?

The Emperor really wanted to slap Wang Sheng to the ends of the earth. You came up with such a vicious idea, raising the Emperor like a pig, using him as a human-shaped stamp, holding the Emperor to command the feudal lords, and even abdicating and replacing him in the end, and then you tell me that this is just an idea to collect debts? Are you stupid? Or am I stupid?

Thinking of what Wang Sheng said, Cao Cao was still a normal person, but what Dong Zhuo said made the Emperor shudder at the mere thought of it. If such a scenario were to happen, the Emperor would not be able to close his eyes even in death. So brutal, and you say it's just to collect debts?

But the Emperor couldn't refute it. Because according to Wang Sheng's statement, the debt could indeed be collected in the end. Because when that time came, who in the royal family would dare not give it? Although this debt was completely fictitious, once it reached that point, as long as someone brought it up, it would become real even if it didn't exist.

"Don't you think the price is a bit too high for collecting debts like this?" The Emperor asked speechlessly.

"It's you who are collecting the debt, not me? Whether the price is worth it or not, you can just calculate the principal and interest, right?" Wang Sheng suddenly asked with a wary look: "You don't want to renege on the reward for the idea, do you?"

As soon as this question came out, the Emperor didn't know whether to laugh or cry. If it were really implemented, it would simply be a disaster. Such a huge price would have to be paid. Is it worth reneging on a mere few gold coins?

With a flip of his hand, two more storage rings appeared on the Emperor's hand, and he pushed them towards Wang Sheng again. Including the storage rings and the gold coins inside, Wang Sheng's idea was worth almost tens of thousands of gold coins.

When he pushed them out, a indescribable thought suddenly flashed in the Emperor's mind. The royal family might pay such a painful price in the future, it could be said that the entire royal family would be wiped out. Could the reason be just because of a marquis's residence that was not worth much gold coins? If it really came to that, the Emperor would have no place to cry injustice!

After receiving the gold coins, Wang Sheng's face was not so wary, and he looked at the Emperor and pondered: "If you put it that way, it seems that this method is indeed a bit harmful and unreasonable!"

"You also know it's harmful and unreasonable?" The Emperor almost spat on Wang Sheng's face. He only dared to say these words in his mind, and didn't dare to show them on his face. He just echoed: "It is indeed a bit much."

"Well, if you calculate it, the army entering the capital and controlling the imperial city will definitely kill many people. If some feudal lords are not convinced, and then there is a loyalist army to rescue the Emperor, once the two sides fight, it will be unknown how many people will die. It's a disaster for the people!" Wang Sheng frowned: "We are good people, we can't do such harmful and unreasonable things, right?"

The legendary expert cursed in his heart: "If you are a good person, then there are no bad people in the world. Look at these two ideas, two desperate plans!"

"Although we are assassins from Worry-Free City, we are just assassins, not butchers!" Wang Sheng sighed again: "Don't you think so?"

The Emperor could only nod. He couldn't wait for Wang Sheng not to have that kind of thought.

"No, we were butchers in Worry-Free City for a while." Wang Sheng suddenly retorted: "But even butchers can't do such brutal things, right?"
