I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head
Chapter 1413 A New Emperor Ascends To The Throne, Changing The Regime
"You wanted to teach me a lesson before you die?" Wei Wuya looked at the emperor's corpse with a complicated expression. He had never expected that his father would die in front of him in such a way.
The emperor had severed his meridians and died. In the end, he refused to let Wei Wuya inherit the throne safely.
However, Wei Wuya did not care. Even if his father had written an abdication edict, he was still a usurper. It was just a little more serious now. As for being careful of Chu Yunfan, how could he not know.
He didn't dare to say it out loud, but he knew very well that he and Chu Yunfan were allies. To him, the stronger Chu Yunfan was, the better it would be for him, because his chances of success would be higher. However, now that his cause had succeeded and the army had entered the capital, he was about to ascend the throne. The conflict between him and Chu Yunfan would immediately surface.
No ruler would wish for the existence of another potential emperor floating above their heads. This was a very common situation in the Spirit Realm. If a dynasty didn't have a powerful expert to support it, it would often be easily overturned. However, he would not be as wary of Chu Yunfan as his father. Although Chu Yunfan was a threat to him in the long run, he was also a rare backer.
Without Chu Yunfan's deterrence, how could he resist the prying eyes of all parties?
However, in the long run, this was indeed a problem that needed to be paid attention to. Perhaps, bringing in the Monster Subduers' sect master, Yun Huang, would be an excellent choice. Although he had never thought of suppressing Chu Yunfan, it was impossible. After all, Chu Yunfan could destroy him with a single thought.
But if he brought in Yun Huang and Chu Yunfan to restrict each other, it would be much easier for him to become the emperor. This was also the way for him to survive in the cracks. He forcefully seized the throne, and this was one of the repercussions.
This was something Wei Wuya had to bear. With Chu Yunfan's age, it would take several generations for the imperial family to not be restrained. It would only be possible if Chu Yunfan died.
At this moment, Wei Wuya thought of many things. He had to admit that his father was indeed a cunning fox. As the saying goes, the older the ginger, the spicier. Just one sentence had aroused his fear of Chu Yunfan.
Soon, Chu Yunfan saw Wei Wuya walk out from the palace. Although Chu Yunfan was outside, he could still hear what was happening inside. The decisiveness of the emperor had surprised him.
The emperor must have been very clear that he would die this time because Chu Yunfan would not let him live no matter what. His only path was death. The only thing he could choose was how he died and whose hands he died in.
However, Chu Yunfan didn't expect the emperor to be so ruthless. He was willing to surrender, but he refused to leave behind an abdication edict. This was a slap to the face of his son, Wei Wuya, saying, "You're still too inexperienced to fight me."
However, none of this had anything to do with him. In any case, Wei Wuya was the one who would be embarrassed.
After coming out, Wei Wuya glanced at Chu Yunfan and said, "Pass down the imperial decree. The first prince has rebelled against his superiors and raised an army to attack the Imperial City. He had dared to kill his father. His crime is heinous. The first prince's entire family is sentenced to be executed. All relatives who have alienated him will be banished to the border. The third, fourth, eighth, ninth, and tenth prince are all involved in this rebellion. They will all be beheaded. However, I am merciful to my family. If they come up clean in the investigation, they will be spared the death penalty.
"Imprison the Imperial Court. Without my orders, no one is allowed to visit!"
Chu Yunfan looked at Wei Wuya in surprise. He was truly ruthless. All of the princes mentioned were, without exception, the most popular candidates for the throne, especially the first and second princes. Now that the second prince had died in Chu Yunfan's hands, the first prince's entire family were to executed. In addition, all the other princes were to be beheaded and their relatives imprisoned. Even those who were estranged from them had been imprisoned or exiled.
It was equivalent to uprooting and killing all the princes who might threaten his throne. Although there were many princes left, they did not have much influence, let alone pose any threat. After all, not everyone was like Wei Wuya, able to find a supporter like Chu Yunfan and miraculously obtain the final victory.
His personal guard hurriedly went down to give the order. Wei Wuya let out a long sigh of relief. Chu Yunfan was only a long-term concern to him, but these people were immediate worries. Now that the army had entered the city, he could take advantage of the chaos and complete everything with lightning speed. When everything was settled, the various factions would no longer have the chance to object even if they wanted to. The core of everything was to cut the knot quickly.
"Aren't you afraid of being criticized by others?" Chu Yunfan asked with a faint smile.
"The criticisms toward a ruler will surely not be small. It will be the same in life and death. I've long been prepared, but I will use the truth to shut everyone up and let everyone know that it is not wrong to hand the country to me," Wei Wuya slowly said.
"I'll need you help to take care of this, Master Chu." Wei Wuya bowed deeply to Chu Yunfan.
ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm Chu Yunfan said," I can't help you with all this. At most, I can help you intimidate the villains. However, if you want the world to shut up, you have to rely on yourself. Choosing talents and governing the country has nothing to do with me."
Seeing that Chu Yunfan had no intention of interfering, Wei Wuya heaved a sigh of relief. At least he didn't have to worry about Chu Yunfan suddenly interfering and overthrowing his regime. After all, from the looks of it, it wasn't difficult for Chu Yunfan to do this.
"You can handle these things. I'm going into seclusion to prepare for the battle in three months," Chu Yunfan said.
"All right, then I wish you a great victory, Master Chu." Wei Wuya was so happy that Chu Yunfan didn't even step out to criticize him.
Following Wei Wuya's orders, the first prince and the other princes who hadn't been able to escape in time were captured by the army. Immediately after, orders were issued one after another, shocking the entire Imperial City.
The first prince's entire family was executed, and the other princes who had previously fought for the throne were also captured and beheaded, and their relatives were imprisoned.
Everyone remained silent under these bloody orders. No one dared to challenge the dignity of the eighteenth prince who had just seized the throne.
Then, an even bigger piece of news shocked the entire Great Wei. The original emperor had been killed in the rebellion initiated by the first prince. The eighteenth prince, under the support of many officials, ascended the throne and became the new Emperor of Great Wei.
A new chapter in the history of Great Wei had begun.
