Star Sea Hunter

There was a dead silence in the hall.

Zhu Zhaoyuan already understood that at this moment, she and Chen Yinjie had no way out!So I don't care about any demeanor and influence, I just want to see you!

"Is there anyone who is not convinced?" She looked at the silent officials under the jade steps and asked solemnly.

"Queen Mother, you are risking the disgrace of the world by doing this. You... can't succeed at all!" Foreign Minister Ryan hesitated for a moment, but still summoned up his courage and said.

Zhu Zhaoyuan waved his hand coldly: "Execute!"

Immediately, a blood cloud guard came over and killed him with a sword!

Seeing such a bloody scene for the first time, the direct prince Fang Yuan shrank back a little in fear, but under the cold eyes of the empress mother, he had to continue to maintain a correct demeanor, biting his lips tightly, his small face pale.

At this point, all the ministers fully understood that this woman could do anything in order to get that seat!It doesn't matter what the consequences are!

Three important imperial ministers fell in a pool of blood in a row, making the rest of the people hesitant, and no one came out to speak out, but it is really difficult psychologically for them to change their positions immediately and support this vicious woman. accept!

So, everyone kept silent in unison!

When Chen Yinjie saw that everyone present was more honest, he smiled and said:

"Everyone! Don't be so distracted! The first prince is the blood of the former emperor, and it is justifiable to inherit the throne! Anyway, no matter who is on the throne, aren't we all servants of the empire? Shouldn't we all be loyal to him?"

"As long as you all express your support for the new emperor's ascension to the throne today, you will all have the credit for supporting him! The queen mother is kind, and will definitely reward you generously! Why do you all have to be stubborn to the end?"

Everyone still didn't speak, and some officials looked at him with obvious contempt and disgust!

The rogue fat man secretly sneered, this group of people who don't know what is good or bad, if I still need your help to stabilize the political situation, do you think I would stand here with such a good temper to discuss with you?

Look at your pious looks, what kind of virtues are behind your back, don't think I don't know!Except for the three old antiques who died just now, who are considered upright, you guys who are alive, really take the word "integrity" seriously?

He stopped talking nonsense, and asked the servant to move a table, then put a blank document on it, and said bluntly:

"Everyone! On this day when the new emperor ascends the throne, the whole world celebrates it! I will not say anything else, as a heart for the new emperor! Everyone, come and sign the allegiance document! From now on, you can still enjoy the glory and wealth! There are also a lot of unexpected benefits!"

"If there is anyone among you who can't think about it, hehe... I have no choice but to feel sorry for you!"

As he spoke, he pointed to an official and said:

"You! Mr. Anduer, come here and sign! As long as you stand on our side, you will still be the highest person in charge of the Tianhua Starfield Security Department in the future. The Queen Mother can also increase your title by two levels, and various rewards will not Without yours! How?"

The official named Anduer seemed to be a little moved, but when he looked back at the officials who were staring at him, he cringed again.

"This... Your Excellency the Prime Minister! I..." He stammered, as if he wanted to bow his head, but he wanted to delay for a while!

"What? You refuse to agree?" Chen Yinjie said gloomyly.

immediately!The two blood cloud guards stood beside him with their swords in hand, without saying a word.

Facing the threat of death, there are very few people who can truly face fearlessness!Looking at the three courtiers whose blood hadn't dried up on the ground, Anduer finally chose to give in after struggling for a while!

"Okay! I... swear allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor!" He said in a difficult tone, walked over and slowly signed his name on the allegiance document!

Chen Yinjie immediately changed his face, and said cheerfully: "Okay, okay! Mr. Anduer really knows the general idea! My humble servant and the queen mother hereby promise that the rewards given to you will be honored immediately! In the future, I will work hard and be a high-ranking official. You are indispensable!"

"Yes! I thank the queen mother, and thank you, the prime minister!" With a secret sigh in his heart, Anduer said helplessly.

"Okay! Now it's your turn!" Chen Yinjie looked at the others again, and said with a fake smile:

"Come here one by one, sign your name! Don't make things difficult for my humble servant and the Queen Mother!"

After a stalemate for a while, most of the courtiers chose to submit!I signed my name on that document!But not everyone is willing to succumb to this fat man's coercion!

"Honorable Minister of Military Affairs! Are you still unwilling to change your mind?" The rogue fat man looked at the sinking Gurungs and said:

"As long as you agree to support His Majesty, the Empress Dowager has already promised you a prince! This is the only honor that the empire has enjoyed for thousands of years! What else are you dissatisfied with?"

"Wang Jue? That sounds good!" Gu Longsi sneered, "I really can't afford such kindness! Different ways don't conspire with each other! Therefore, we can only live up to the good intentions of the Queen Mother!"

"You..." Chen Yinjie's complexion sank, he shook his head and said:

"Okay! Since you can't think about it now, go back and reflect on it! When will you be enlightened, and then come to apologize to His Majesty!"

"Come here! Send Your Excellency the Minister of Military Affairs back to your residence!"

Gu Longsi glanced at him mockingly, turned around and walked out with his head held high, followed by more than [-] generals who refused to submit!

The Minister of Military Affairs is also a veteran of several dynasties, and his disciples are all over the entire empire!The power in the army is even more deeply rooted!He is definitely not someone who can be humiliated at will!

Although Chen Yinjie was arrogant, he still had some brains. Seeing that he refused to bow his head, he didn't dare to do anything to him right away. He just dismissed his duties and took him back to the mansion to put him under house arrest!

In this way, under the threat of death, the senior officials of the Shuofeng Empire finally reached a superficial agreement on the new emperor's ascension to the throne, which became an established fact amidst doubts from the ruling and opposition parties!

For this result, the senior officials of the six great families are naturally happy to see the result, and have spared no effort to support it!Even risking the reputation of treason, he dispatched private troops to help Zhu Zhaoyuan control the situation in the imperial capital!

An underage child, plus a woman with big breasts and no brains even though she is ruthless!You can't control this huge empire at all!It's the same even with Chen Yinjie's help!At most, it can only keep you safe for a while!

In order to usurp the artifact, he did not hesitate to cooperate with the six great families!Only Zhu Zhaoyuan could come up with such a clever strategy for such a stupid act of luring wolves into the house!Chen Yinjie could tell, but for his own self-interest, he chose to remain silent.

What's more, the current empire is in troubled times, facing various forces at home and abroad, what will happen to them in the end, anyone with a little vision can guess in their hearts!

Of course, this is only good for the six great families!Speaking of the past few years, after the emperors of the two dynasties spared no effort to suppress them, they lost too many benefits!Faced with such an opportunity that could turn the situation around and turn defeat into victory, how could the Patriarchs easily miss it?

Yun Hongchang was undoubtedly the happiest!Because of this incident, he regained enough support within the family, and some elders of Yun Tianzhen's faction who didn't like him at first, also began to lean towards him!His originally precarious position is as stable as Mount Tai again!

Next, this pair of self-satisfied dogs and men began to use the power in their hands to suppress and exclude dissidents!All officials and nobles who refused to cooperate and had gaps with them in the past were arrested and imprisoned by them on various charges, and they were punished by death or exile without trial!

In just over ten days, thousands of officials and nobles were killed, deposed or exiled!On the square in front of the main hall of the imperial palace, blood is already flowing like a river!

But this is not the most important!In order to stabilize the power in his hands, under the secret instigation of the six aristocratic families, and under the cold gaze of Chen Yinjie, Zhu Zhaoyuan actually started to think about the royal family!

The blood left by the previous emperor, apart from the fifth princess Fang Mengyan who was already in the Xinghui Kingdom, there are five princes and nine princesses, most of them are underage children, who were poisoned to death one by one by this vicious woman. Not even their mother and concubine will be spared!

Then, dozens of close relatives with high prestige and influence in the royal family were all imprisoned and killed by her under various names!Including Fang Yukun who is already at home!

Such an approach undoubtedly aroused public outrage, and the royal family did not intend to fight back!But besides the support of the six great families, this vicious woman also got the support of a group of mysterious strong men. Several assassinations all ended in failure!

A group of generals from the royal family once mobilized all the troops they could control to try to solve this woman in the form of a coup, but they were wiped out by the private troops of the six great families who had been prepared for a long time!

Later, the mad Zhu Zhaoyuan simply kept doing nothing and imprisoned all the members of the royal family in the imperial capital!And all people or forces who dared to question her legitimacy were ruthlessly obliterated!

In the bloody wind, the Shuofeng Empire has embarked on a road of no return!The goals that the patriarchs of the aristocratic families failed to achieve with great effort, but this woman happily accomplished it for them!

Under the ferocious and excited eyes of the six great families, the influence of the royal family has quickly dissipated with the deaths of many elite members!The mountain that has been pressing on them for thousands of years is beginning to disintegrate, collapse!

On an unobtrusive night, the patriarchs of the major families gathered together and reached several secret agreements on the future situation of the empire that were unknown to outsiders!

The heavens of the empire are about to change!

And the Star Sea of ​​Hell Soul, a hundred thousand light-years away, and the high-level executives of Starlight Kingdom are also having the most intense debate on the kingdom's next strategic action direction!
