Quick Transmigration: The Villain Always Ends Up with the Male Lead

Chapter 113 The Marshal Insists on Hindering Me (38)

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone in the room changed to varying degrees. Shi Qi guessed that the Prime Minister had been harassing them quite a bit these past few days, since the heir to the throne he had supported had been imprisoned by Qi Ye's men.

Xu Miao muttered under his breath, "That old bastard, he showed up as soon as my son woke up, what bad luck..."

Clearly, the others held different views, and their expressions were also hostile.

Then, Xu Miao said to the person who came to deliver the message, "Tell his person that we will not see him."

A moment later, the messenger arrived again, his voice still tinged with fear: "Your Highness, the Prime Minister's men say that if the Crown Prince is not handed over, he will come to visit in person."

This was a blatant threat. Shi Qi glanced at Shen Nian and, sure enough, saw undisguised hatred in his eyes. So, Shi Qi nodded to Shen Nian, indicating that he would leave it to him and that he would keep his promise to Shen Nian.

Shi Qi tried to get up by lifting the covers, but was stopped by the others, who said that he had just woken up and his body would need time to recover.

Qi Ye: "The person was arrested by my men. If he insists on seeing someone, then let me go."

Shi Qi shook his head: "There's nothing wrong with my body. Let me go. I have a way to deal with him."

Xu Miao frowned, her face filled with worry. "Are you sure it's alright? I'm afraid he might harm you. His Majesty is already unconscious; I don't want anything to happen to you..."

"Unconscious?"

Xu Miao nodded: "Yes, he fell into a coma even earlier than you... but that's not the point. Right now, you're the most important thing."

"It's alright, Mother. I guarantee he can't touch me. Besides, isn't the Marshal protecting me?" As she spoke, Shi Qi tilted her head slightly and glanced at Qi Ye beside her.

Qi Ye immediately felt a great responsibility on his shoulders. He felt he could not betray Shi Qi's trust: "Your Highness, please rest assured, with me here, he will definitely be safe!"

With Qi Ye's assurance, Xu Miao finally relented: "Someone! Communicate my order, summon the Prime Minister to the Parliament Hall for a moment..."

----

After changing his clothes, Shi Qi led the group into the parliament hall in a grand procession. The Prime Minister was already sitting there waiting, and the Queen was also sitting next to him, looking at the newcomers with an unfriendly expression. Behind them were members of the Prime Minister's party.

Shi Qi calmly entered the conference room, and the Prime Minister pretended to stand up and greet him. Shi Qi acknowledged her, but automatically ignored Lin Jia, whom he should call his mother, and sat down opposite them.

As a mother, Lin Jia couldn't remain calm. She yelled at Shi Qi, "Release my son right now! Otherwise, I won't let you off the hook!"

The Prime Minister raised his hand to stop his daughter's rude behavior, and looked at Shi Qi with a smiling but ruthless expression, saying, "Second Prince, is it inappropriate to detain the future heir of the empire without His Majesty's orders?"

"Oh?" Shi Qi casually raised his eyes and said, "How come I didn't know that he became the heir?"

The Prime Minister remained calm and took a piece of high-quality paper from a servant behind him: "This will was written by His Majesty himself, and it bears His Majesty's personal seal. Would the Second Prince like to take a look?"

Shi Qi glanced at it from afar, then shook his head indifferently: "No need, what does it matter if it's true or false?" Shi Qi chuckled: "Anyway, he's destined not to ascend the throne."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jia's face darkened with anger, and even the Prime Minister's previously forced smile turned sharp: "What does Your Highness mean by this? Are you openly defying His Majesty's decree?"

"No, Your Highness is a person who deeply mourns..." Then, changing the subject, "It's just that my elder brother is unfit to ascend the throne because he not only falsified his gender but also colluded with the insectoid race, committing the crime of treason. That's why I have to imprison him for the sake of the entire empire."

“Empty words are no proof!” the Prime Minister rebuked. “Since you say so, what evidence do you have?!” He seemed to be certain that Shi Qi had no evidence, or rather, dared not produce any evidence. After all, his men had already surrounded the palace, and there was no sign of Qi Ye’s army around. Shi Qi and his men were now isolated and helpless.

"Of course!" Shi Qi replied without fear, projecting the video directly onto the holographic screen in the council chamber.

The content was about the time when Shi Shuo seduced Qi Ye. When the prime minister's side of the councilors heard Shi Shuo personally say that he was an S-class Omega, their expressions were quite varied, because only Lin Jia and the prime minister knew about this.

Although Lin Jia's expression visibly darkened, the Prime Minister remained calm: "So what? Do you think that His Highness cannot inherit the throne simply because of his gender?"

Shi Qi: "Of course not. I don't believe that only alphas can inherit the throne. I released this information to tell you that what I said is true. Moreover, this is also one of his crimes. Knowing that he is an Omega, he still insisted on joining the army, disregarding the physical condition of other soldiers, and tried to use his gender to seduce the Imperial Marshal for his own benefit."

The Prime Minister doesn't care about that; he can easily handle all of these things.

Seeing that the Prime Minister's expression did not change, Shi Qi continued to release the next video, which was a clip of Thanatos going to save Shi Shuo: Shi Shuo asked Thanatos to kill Shi Qi, and Thanatos even admitted that the two of them had a child. In the video, Thanatos's eyes, which belonged to the Zerg, were clearly visible.

"I believe everyone saw the Insect King's corpse two days ago. That Insect King is the man in the video. As for the child, you have probably heard of him. He is the Insect King that Marshal Qi killed when the Insect Clan invaded Star S. At the time, we thought it was a newborn Insect King, but we never expected that it was born to my elder brother and the Insect King."

The video continued to play, and sure enough, the entire process of the man transforming into the insect king was shown. Although he didn't film any of it, what can you do when you have the 007 cheat code?

"Does the Prime Minister have anything else to say?" Shi Qi asked, not giving an inch.

At this moment, the attitudes of the members of parliament behind the prime minister wavered to varying degrees. Although they supported Shi Shuo's ascension to the throne, they could not tolerate the future king's affair with the Zerg. Everyone in the empire hated the Zerg.

The hatred in Lin Jia's eyes had solidified into a tangible form, but the Prime Minister remained calm and composed, twisting the truth and saying, "How do you know that His Highness wasn't coerced? After all, the Insect King's mental power is enough to control a human's mind."

Shi Qi chuckled softly: "Prime Minister, you said it yourself... The Insect King can control humans, but I believe that the human being controlled is not Shi Shuo, but my father who is currently in a coma!"
