294 Chapter 287: That strange fellow! (2/2)
”I am also sure that some of you are confused as to the suddenness of today's event.”
Silence still ensued among the people, but some of them could be seen nodding to the Emperor's words.
”However, it has come to my attention that false rumors regarding the instability of our empire were spread by groups of irresponsible people. Make no mistake, as there are no such thing happening right now.”
Hearing this, the crowd turned to each other and happy expression appeared on their face. Their previous worries about civil war potentially erupting in their empire slowly began to disperse from their minds.
”Silence! His Majesty is not finished!” Supreme Knight Fei Jin Fang bellowed out, causing the ground to vibrate and the air to seethe concurrently.
Gulp!
The crowd immediately stopped talking and their face was pale. That bellow felt like it was their ancestor scolding them for doing something foolish!
”The perpetrators for trying to cause public pandemonium and anarchy will be found, and their entire family will be executed. Conspirators will face the same punishment.”
This last sentence from the Emperor shook everyone including the Empress. She furrowed her brows slightly.
Since when has my husband become this ruthless?
As far as she knows, although her husband was quite overbearing to others, he was not this vicious!
However, the next line spoken by her husband had her smiling slightly. She understood his intentions.
”But, if those responsible were to come out now and acknowledge their mistake, then their family will be spared. As for those who are willing to point out the culprit, the royal family will gift them one hundred High quality spirit stones. I will give them ten breaths of time to reveal themselves before continuing on the ceremony today.”
Hearing the amount of the prize, almost everyone in the square widened their eyes as their mind almost exploded!
100 High quality spirit stones would be enough to start anything ambitious! Even spending lavishly everyday would be possible!
The crowd turned to each other and stared as if they had opened their third eye, looking at everyone around them suspiciously.
Seeing this, the Emperor then continued, ”Of course, if anyone dared to falsify their facts before me, then they will die as well.”
Hisss!
The crowd once more sucked in cold breath. They no longer had any shrewd thoughts of trying to frame their enemy and people they hate as the conspirators or perpetrators.
After all, what use was a 100 High Quality spirit stones when they will have to die immediately after?
Liu Sheng Juan and Liu Sheng Duhai was standing next to each other.
”Little Brother, is this your idea?” Liu Sheng Duhai asked while smiling.
”So what if it is?” Liu Sheng Juan replied coldly.
Although they were brothers and were related by blood, they had some history way back in the Liu Empire.
Liu Sheng Duhai could only chuckle upon such a response before saying, ”I don't think it is a good idea. What if the perpetrator was someone from another empire and had status?”
”I don't need to explain those to you since you already know anyway.” Liu Sheng Juan replied.
”...” Liu Sheng Duhai went silent for a while.
”Maybe you are right..”

Duan Li that was within the masses along with Bai Li and Zhang Liao were similarly bewildered, this was especially the case for both the latter. In their opinion, what the Emperor just stated before was careless and could potentially cause conflict. However, this was not their empire so, they could only shook their head and sigh inwardly.
At this moment, Duan Li was squinting his eyes, looking high up above the sky.
”What is up with that fellow? Is he not afraid of being beheaded for daring to float in the sky right now?”
