Chapter 186 The idea of a palace coup
"Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! You are not allowed to rest until you find the results!" Emperor Xue Ye shouted.
Xue Ye was originally working hard in the harem. Since his last son was disabled, Emperor Xue Ye wanted to have another child so that he could enjoy his old age after Xue Qinghe succeeded to the throne.
But who would have thought that while he was plowing, there was a loud noise in the Sunset Forest. When he looked up, he saw a mushroom cloud. He was immediately weakened and furious. He simply called Xue Qinghe into the palace and asked Xue Qinghe to investigate the matter thoroughly.
"Old man, there are so many things to do. Can't we check it tomorrow?" The stand-in in the audience thought to himself.
As a stand-in, he was naturally clear about what had happened. It was nothing more than Xiao Yi's battle against Tang Hao and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. However, he didn't expect that it would cause such a loud noise from such a distance, causing him to be called over by this old immortal in the middle of the night.
But even though he complained, his current identity was Xue Qinghe.
"Father, I think we need to take a long-term view on this matter. It is getting late now, and the incident happened in Sunset Forest. I remember that His Majesty Dugu seemed to be nearby. Maybe it was caused by the fight between His Majesty Dugu and other Titled Douluo. We might as well check it out tomorrow." The substitute said.
Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Emperor Xue Ye's anger also subsided a lot. This was a Titled Douluo-level expert, and it was Dugu Bo's territory. You know, Dugu Bo was the only Titled Douluo in the Heavenly Dou Empire. What if Dugu Bo got into a fight with someone? In addition, Dugu Bo only listened to orders but not announcements. Last time, a national treasure was already lost. If this rash action angered Dugu Bo and he didn't help the Heavenly Dou Empire, it would be a disaster.
Emperor Xue Ye thought for a while and decided that it would be better not to act rashly. He then said, "Then I'll leave this matter to you. It's getting late, so take a rest."
"Yes, father." said the stand-in.
After saying this, the stand-in rushed towards the Prince's Mansion.
"I will get rid of you, this old immortal, sooner or later." The stand-in thought in his heart on the way back to the Prince's Mansion.
The palace was not far from the prince's residence, and the substitute soon returned to the prince's residence.
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, the substitute returned to the study. He was originally handling government affairs, but Xiao Yi made too much noise, so he was called to the palace by Xue Ye.
The stand-in felt a headache after looking at the documents on the study desk, wondering when this kind of life would end.
Just when the stand-in was having a headache, a figure suddenly entered the study.
"Who!" the stand-in asked defensively after sensing someone entering the study.
"It's me." the figure said.
"It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Holy Son." The stand-in said respectfully after seeing the person coming.
The person who came was Xiao Yi. When Xiao Yi was heading to Wuhun City, he suddenly felt that it was not a good idea to leave so directly. Since the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was gone, it would be better to take this opportunity to take down the Tiandou Empire at the same time, which would have the least impact.
"I wonder why His Royal Highness the Holy Son came to see me so late at night?" the stand-in asked puzzledly.
The stand-in couldn't understand why Xiao Yi came to him in the middle of the night. Don't masters need to rest?
Of course, he didn't know that the purpose of Xiao Yi's trip was to cause a palace coup. At present, there were still some lands of the Tiandou Empire that were not in his hands, and it would take some time.
"Well...how is the situation in Tiandou City now? If possible, I would like to have a palace coup in advance." Xiao Yi said casually.
"Your Highness, you must not do this. The timing is not right yet. We have not yet gathered the dirt on most of the nobles. It will be very difficult to stage a coup now."
When the stand-in heard Xiao Yi's idea of coup, he was stunned. He currently had too little negative information about the nobles. In addition, the territories of the Tiandou Empire were too scattered, with basically one rule for each place. If he coup prematurely, other places that had not been annexed might declare themselves kings, causing great losses.
Then the stand-in told Xiao Yi about the current situation. Anyway, it is very disadvantageous to take the Tiandou Empire now. If you take it by force, the loss will be great. It is likely to be half and half, and you will only get an empty shell in the end. Xiao Yi listened to the stand-in and felt that it was too early to directly coup. Although he has the absolute strength to take over the palace now, what about other places? If someone is blind and declares himself king, won’t there be a fight? At that time, the losses will be all his own people. It is better to let the stand-in gain a foothold and integrate the coup after the coup, so that the losses will be minimal.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. Good luck to you." Xiao Yi encouraged the stand-in, and then rushed towards the Spirit Hall.
However, before heading to the Spirit Hall, he remembered the two cubs in the soul guide.
Afterwards, Xiao Yi checked the soul guide and found that Anzi and Xiaobiesan were still unconscious and showed no signs of waking up.
"What should we do with those two?" Xiao Yi thought to himself as he looked at the unconscious Anzi and Xiao Biesan in the soul guide device.
He had two ways to deal with Xiao Biesan and Anzi. One was to release them and wait for some fun time. The other was to send them to the prison building of the Spirit Hall. He heard that the prisoners there were extremely vicious and had special hobbies. He believed that the prisoners there would like these two people very much.
"Forget it, let's talk about it after we return to the Spirit Hall."
Xiao Yi thought for a while and felt that he should wait until he returned to the Spirit Hall to deal with these two people. The most important thing now was to accompany his woman.
After making plans, Xiao Yi started to hurry towards the Spirit Hall as fast as he could.
One day later, the temple was dedicated.
"What! Yi killed Tang Hao? And the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is gone too?"
Qian Renxue was shocked. Although she knew that something big would happen if Xiao Yi didn't come back, she didn't expect him to do such a big thing? You know, his father was defeated by Tang Hao and died.
Of course, she didn't know that her father was killed by her mother.
"Well, they were the first to attack, and Yi just fought back. Moreover, Yi's eighth soul skill is extremely powerful, and even Jian Douluo can't stop it with assistance."
Dugu Yan sighed and said that she would never forget the meteorite that covered the sky and the sun, which made people unable to muster the desire to resist.
"Stinky loach, tell me the details of this battle."
Qian Renxue said, and Qianjun Douluo beside her was also very surprised. Haotian Douluo was killed just like that? Haotian Douluo suppressed the genius of an era.
Dugu Yan told all the details. Xiao Yi suppressed Tang Hao the whole time. Although Tang Hao was seriously injured, he was not someone that even a half-Title Douluo or Soul Douluo could challenge, not to mention that the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was destroyed.
After listening, Qian Renxue smiled slightly. She finally understood that Xiao Yi was avenging her. After all, he was the murderer of her father, and Xiao Yi did this for her.
Qian Renxue stroked her belly with one hand, smiling with maternal radiance and muttering to herself.
"My child, your father is a very strong man. I am very pleased. Your father helped me get revenge. How should I reward him?"
Dugu Yan had a look of disappointment on her face. She was not pregnant. She had not cherished so many opportunities in the past, and now she couldn't get pregnant even though she wanted it. However, Dugu Yan decided that it would be better not to have a child in the short term.
Qian Renxue is pregnant and needs care. It would be too troublesome if she got pregnant again. Let's wait until Qian Renxue gives birth to the child.
