Abolish the court and the courtiers

You have no use for a bunch of ageing whores, drunkards, failures and forgotten sons. You look around at the court letting the disgust openly show on your face.

"You are all pathetic, whiney little crettins" you begin walking towards the huddled group.

"You took their food and their hospitality and you got fat," you say poking a particularly fat man in the crowd so hard that he lets out a winded gasp.

"and what good did you do my parents, your pathetic mumbling didn't save their lives." The courtiers give you terrified glances as you walk amongst them.

"what good did you do to this country?" you say suddenly turning to face a wide-eyed courtier, she stares at you in horror her mouth opening and shutting but no noise coming out of it.

"I'll tell you what you did," you say pulling out your knife in a sinister tone. The crowd parts leaving only you and the courtier alone in the ring of terrified faces. You lunge forward the courtier to terrified to move and slice from the top of her dress down, holding her dress with one hand you give her a hard shove and she falls to the ground coming completely out of the dress in the process.

"You fuck, fornicated and seduced as many handsome young lordling as you could in the **** hopes that one of them would make you his lady because you only thought about yourself not the good of the realm or the good of the crown."

You turn to look around at the court, giving the knife a slight twirl in the process, "this creature you see before you, this pathetic blubbering whore does she look like suitable lady material to you?"

The courtiers mumble uncertain responses to your question.

"I'll ask again, and I recommend giving me a proper response as my station demands. Does she look like she is worthy of being a lady or this realm?"

"no" the court respond in near unison.

"Well I'm glad we agree and none of you are any better."

you motioned to one of the guards in the room and he stands to attention. "bring every available guard in here now." The guard quickly headed out of the room and in less than a minute returned with a dozen more guards.

You walk away from the sobbing woman still laying naked on the floor and the terrified courtiers and approach the guards to speak to them. "My fine, loyal, men, these animals have grown fat off of this realm for too long at the expense of good honest people like you and I. No more though, I hereby decree that every man in my court is to be executed for treason and every women will be assigned as prisoners of the guards so that they may work off their debt to society but providing whatever entertainment you require."

Behind you, you hear the gasps and sobs of the courtiers but with that you calmly walk out of the throne room leaving your former court to its fate.

You have certainly made some enemies here today but you've also destroyed a potential source of trouble before it even became an issue and probably bought a fair bit of loyalty from your guards in the process.
