Chapter 461: The New Emperor of the Sun and Moon
The ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens is over, and the new Sun and Moon Emperor is also decided, not the old emperor's most important crown prince Xu Tianran, but the imperial nephew he ignored when he launched the coup. After ten years of exile and forbearance, he finally returned to the Ming capital and regained the throne to complete his revenge.
Kong Deming solemnly said a few more coronation speeches, announcing the official change of the supreme ruler of the Sun and Moon Empire.
From this moment on, Huo Yuhao finally inherited the supreme power of the Sun and Moon Empire legally and legitimately, but it was still only procedural and secular legitimacy, and there were still many practical problems in front of him.
He stood on the seventh floor of the Temple of Heaven, turned around and glanced coldly at all the sun and moon powerhouses, the majesty from the top made all the powerhouses be cautious.
Before today, they either judged the situation and assessed the situation, or were coerced and enticed to stand up for Xu Tianran, but now that Xu Tianran has fallen, their fate is destined not to be very good.
It stands to reason that as high-level soul masters, their value is extremely high and they will not be easily liquidated, but neglect and persecution are inevitable.
Huo Yuhao slowly walked to the center of the seventh layer, and his body did not speak, but manipulated the spirit body disguised as Beidi Douluo beside him and said in a deep voice: "The new imperial mansion is kind-hearted, and the others are all ministers of the sun and the moon, and they will never blame anyone for no reason because of their previous position." β
Everyone was stunned, and their hearts suddenly felt a little lighter. Whether it was the old emperor or Xu Tianran, they were both ruthless and sinister people, and the huge contrast shown by Huo Yuhao at this moment surprised them extremely much.
"But ......"
A sudden turn in his tone lifted everyone's newly relaxed mood again.
Beidi Douluo Senran spoke, and the terrifying coercion like an ancient beast swept through everyone.
"No matter what happened in the past, those who came must be investigated, the leaves fall into ashes, and the dead ashes will not be rekindled."
Next to Beidi Douluo was the Second Emperor of Ice and Snow.
While the strong people were secretly happy in their hearts, they also felt tremendous pressure.
They all saw it with their own eyes, and the cold ice that easily controlled Xu Tianran just now was done by the other party. Behind the new emperor stood an Extreme Douluo powerhouse, which was a warning to everyone.
When Xu Tianran was alive, he had the courage to organize an army to fight against Beidi Douluo.
Now that Xu Tianran is dead, they have no leader, and they don't dare to find themselves.
If Xu Tianran had a close relationship with several other princes, maybe there would be three princes to succeed him and avenge his father, and Huo Yuhao would not die, which would be a trouble.
But the third prince wished that Xu Tianran would die early, and when he saw Xu Tianran die so aggrieved, he was happy in his heart.
Huo Yuhao said coldly: "Where is Xu Tianci? β
Xu Tianci is the name of the three princes.
The third prince of the sixth layer never expected that the new emperor would suddenly mention him, so he cautiously climbed to the seventh layer and performed the royal etiquette of the sun and the moon: "The minister is here." β
Huo Yuhao said lightly: "I order you to lead the royal pickets to block the prince's palace, and strictly investigate the major soul mentor groups of the protector of the country. β
The third prince was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed and said, "The minister accepts the order." β
He understood that Huo Yuhao was trying to win him over first and reuse himself. If he takes advantage of this opportunity, his status in the royal family can easily surpass that of the older generation of princes.
Huo Yuhao glanced at the other powerhouses again, and said coldly: "Let's all step back and prepare for tomorrow morning." Let me...... Let me be alone for a moment above this temple of heaven. β
"Your Majesty, do you want to go back to the palace first...... an old man asked.
Before he could finish his words, he was coldly interrupted by Huo Yuhao.
"I say, let me be alone for a moment above this Temple of Heaven."
The old man didn't dare to say more.
Huo Yuhao quickly adapted to this self-title that only the emperor was qualified to use.
The strong men slowly retreated from the Temple of Heaven, each with their own thoughts. The new emperor did not show Xu Tianran's ruthlessness, which made the sun and moon powerhouses feel a little unreal, and they had no doubt that after Xu Tianran took the throne, he would eradicate all the supporters of the third prince and the fifth prince.
But maybe it's just a faΓ§ade, and sooner or later the real reckoning will come.
Kong Deming let out a long sigh, he was the last to retreat.
He stayed on the Temple of Heaven and solemnly put away Xu Tianran's corpse, and sent it to the Sun Moon Emperor's Mausoleum for burial in the future.
Kong Deming also has royal blood, and he does not want to see a river of blood between the royal family, but the reality is very helpless, only the stronger can become the new emperor.
No matter how completely Xu Tianran loses, as long as he kneels in front of Kong Deming and shouts "Kong Lao save me", Kong Deming will definitely take action to leave Xu Tianran alive.
Let Xu Tianran abolish his cultivation, and be an idle prince from now on, he will never be able to threaten the throne, and for the sake of his Silver Moon Douluo's face, he can at least survive for a lifetime.
But Xu Tianran still chose the most extreme method, not only could he not accept failure, but it was even more difficult to endure such a humiliation.
But the sadness in Kong Deming's eyes quickly disappeared, replaced by a sense of anticipation.
He was very curious about how this new Sun and Moon Emperor would change compared to Xu Tianran and what kind of changes would it bring to the Sun and Moon Empire.
The actions of the three princes were very fast, the prince's palace was seized by the royal pickets, and many of the prince's supporters among the ministers were also taken away one after another.
The privilege of being exempt from direct reckoning belongs only to the enshrinement or the ministers, not to them. However, many people were released after interrogation, and only a few die-hard supporters have been imprisoned, and the pain of flesh and blood has not changed their mouths.
When the orange was taken away, his eyes were dull, he was unconscious, as if his heart was dead, and he remained silent.
Her identity is somewhat special, and the royal pickets did not dare to deal with her without authorization, so they could only temporarily put her under house arrest.
"Grandpa, it's all over."
Meng Hongchen, who was standing behind Jing Hongchen, spoke softly. The woman is careful, she can see the sadness on Jing Hongchen more than Xiao Hongchen.
"yes, it's over, it's so easy." Jing Hongchen's tone was a little flat.
"Grandpa, aren't you happy?" Xiao Hongchen asked, "Huo Yuhao has succeeded, the status of the Hongchen family and Mingdetang has gone further, and there is no need to look at the face of the royal family in the future." β
Jing Hongchen smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Laugh, dream, grandpa is sincerely happy for you and the Hongchen family, but he is sad for himself." β
He turned around and walked in the direction of Sun Moon Academy: "Go back, I'm afraid tomorrow's morning court won't be peaceful." β
Sometimes choice is more important than hard work, Jing Hongchen obviously didn't do anything, just because he stood on the right side and supported the right person, the entire Hongchen family and Mingdetang would be able to ascend to heaven, and there would be no investment with a higher rate of return.
From time to time, someone cast envious glances at Jing Hongchen.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was one of the few strong people who did not go to the seventh layer to escort Xu Tianran just now.
Even the former third prince Xu Tianci can be reused by the new emperor, and Jing Hongchen will rise even higher in the future.
Above the Temple of Heaven, there were only a few Huo Yuhao left, and there were no more Sun and Moon courtiers.
The millions of people in the surrounding area also gradually dispersed under the command of the army, and the southern suburbs regained tranquility.
It's dusk and the sun is setting in the west.
"Hah-"
Huo Yuhao gasped a little tiredly, and lay straight to the ground, and the Northern Earth Douluo transformed by the spirit body also disappeared.
The Second Emperor of Ice and Snow took off the cloak on his body, and Tianmeng also came out of the sea of spirit with eight angles on his head.
As soon as Tianmeng came out, he also lay on the ground, and the two mosquito coils were spinning their eyes. She also gave Huo Yuhao her original power, just for that epic spiritual sharing.
"Yuhao...... This time, I really played Dafa this time......"
Octagon used its ice condensation power to help Tianmeng and Huo Yuhao recover, but it seemed to have achieved remarkable results, it was not a spiritual attribute.
Although he was dizzy, Huo Yuhao was laughing, and his laughter was full of excitement.
He covered his head with his left hand and pointed to the sky with his right, gesturing indiscriminately and muttering to himself.
"The Temple of Heaven is a hundred feet high, shining alone on the sun and moonlight. Thieves who steal the country, once ascended to the new emperor. β
The Ice Emperor praised rarely: "Everything is as you expected, and now you are also qualified to call yourself this Emperor." β
She paused and added: "Actually, Bendi was still worried before, if so many strong people really shot together, Bendi and Xue'er didn't dare to guarantee that they would retreat in their heyday. β
The Snow Emperor nodded in agreement: "The development of human soul guide technology has far exceeded our imagination, and it is no wonder that this country can compete with the other three countries with the strength of one country." β
Huo Yuhao said with a smile: "But now, the master of the strongest violent machine in this continent has become me. β
His gaze looked up at the sky through his fingers and he muttered to himself.
"If there really is a Heavenly Spirit of the Sun and Moon Ancestors, what will they think when they see that the Sun and Moon Emperor has turned into an outsider?"
At this moment, an untimely voice sounded in the sky above.
"They must feel ashamed, they have never seen an emperor lying on the ground like this."
The figure who stepped on the flyboard from the air and slowly landed was Huo Qiu'er. She teased mercilessly, her tall figure pulling out a slender shadow in the twilight light.
No one dared to fly over the Temple of Heaven and disturb the new emperor's solitude, and only Huo Qiu'er, who knew the inside story, dared to be so presumptuous.
"Aren't you seeing it now?" Huo Yuhao smiled.
"Congratulations, you've been hiding from the world." Huo Qiu'er added, "It's just that the means are a bit vulgar." β
"It's a bit disgraceful, but it's effective." Huo Yuhao readily admitted, "This move, I call it a box weapon." β
"In the future, if I want to attack someone and reveal his secret to millions of people, how many people do you think can bear it?"
Huo Qiu'er: "...... I advise you to be kind. β
This move has no actual lethality, but Huo Qiu'er believes that even the strongest person in the world will never want his privacy to be exposed and accept the humiliation of the world.
To be able to withstand such an insult, how strong is that person's psychology?
Huo Qiu'er thought of a method called writing a small composition in Huo Yuhao's memory, which was similar to this.
"Rest assured, I promise that I will not be the first to use box weapons lightly."
Huo Qiu'er stopped talking about this topic and asked again: "Now that you rule the Sun and Moon Empire, what are your next plans?" β
Huo Yuhao shook his head: "It's still early." I'm just a nominal emperor, but I don't have much of my own power. β
He lay on the ground, took out the soul guide cigarette and put it in his mouth.
"I don't have any military power, and the protector doesn't listen to me at all. In the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, I am afraid that the only one who supports me is Jing Hongchen. β
The Ice Emperor frowned and said, "You have already been proclaimed emperor, except for Kong Deming, there is no human being stronger than us, is there anyone who dares to disobey you?" β
"Of course, I'm a guy who came out of nowhere, why should they obey?"
The Ice Emperor was still puzzled: "By force." β
"Force is effective a lot of the time, but it can't solve the essence of the problem, you can easily kill those people, but who will work after killing? It is impossible for such a large country to be run by me alone. β
Huo Yuhao looked at the sky and muttered, "And if just killing can be useful, there will be no corrupt officials in the other Sun and Moon Empire." β
After pondering for a long time, he chuckled helplessly.
"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh, take your time."
