692: C692 The Emperor's Phenomenon

C692 The Emperor's Phenomenon

What made Ye Tian a little surprised was that the lecturer only allowed him to kowtow to the heavens, but not to the earth. In his previous life, the usual method was to bow down to the heavens and earth. He had no idea that in this world, he would actually disregard the earth.

After paying his respects, under the guidance of the singing official, Ye Tian took Chu Yue and Chu Yu's hand and led them down the stairs. They then passed through the array of civil and military officials and finally arrived at the viewing platform on the side of the palace gate.

Standing on the viewing platform, Ye Tian looked out at the sea of commoners outside the palace walls. Listening to the cheers from the crowd, he suddenly felt like he was the ruler of the world.

At this moment, the lecturer called out again: "Bye people."

Ye Tian, Chu Yue, and Chu Yu bowed deeply. The citizens of the Empire didn't need to kneel; all they had to do was bow.

The fact that the three of them bowed in such a manner attracted the cries and blessings of the common people.

For a time, the voices of people were like a tide as their momentum shook the heavens and could be heard for ten li.

The Emperor sat on the Dragon Throne within the Hall of Diligent Government. Hearing the voices of the crowd outside, his brows slightly moved. Lin Chengzhou and Qin Ruhua, who were standing beside him, looked at each other and narrowed their eyes without batting an eyelid.

Imperial etiquette. When a princess marries, the emperor can't reveal himself. He can only hide behind the scenes. When the process of paying respects to the heavens, the citizens, and Wen Tianbi was completed, Prince Consort Ma and Princess finally came to pay their respects to the Emperor.

This was the rule set by the Ancestor Emperor Chu Zhengyang. Compared to Heaven, Zi Min and Wen Tianbi, the Emperor was ranked last.

At this moment, Lin Chengzhou and Qin Ruhua both noticed the strange behavior of the Emperor and looked at each other in tacit understanding.

Without a doubt, the emperor had clearly felt the admiration of Ye Tian from the common people. To some extent, this admiration and admiration was a form of contempt and humiliation for the current emperor.

Apart from the Emperor himself, the citizens of the Empire should never have shown such enthusiasm for a second man.

At this moment, a light flickered within the Emperor's eyes, and a trace of a gaze that was difficult to notice was unconsciously revealed. Lin Chengzhou was the first to frown. His eyes glanced at the emperor.

Immediately after, Qin Ruhua's eyeballs moved intensely and he also glanced at it.

The two of them looked at each other again.

Lin Chengzhou had a strange feeling. The emperor in front of him didn't seem like the person he grew up with.

Even if he possessed the strength of Chu Yue and Chu Yu, the Emperor's desire for power shouldn't be so strong. After all, Ye Tian was his son-in-law. In the future, when Chu Yue ascended the throne, she would have to rely on Ye Tian's assistance. Otherwise, just relying on a woman, even if Chu Yue was extremely intelligent, she probably wouldn't have been able to think it through properly.

Qin Ruhua was also very shocked inside. Just now, when he exchanged a glance with Lin Chengzhou, the two of them confirmed one thing at the same time.

The Emperor actually wanted to kill Ye Tian.

Qin Ruhua frowned and started to think quickly in his mind.

In all honesty, whether it was his motives, his desires, or the consequences of his actions, the Emperor had no reason to kill Ye Tian. Killing Ye Tian could only further weaken the emperor's strength, but it could not further strengthen the emperor's authority.

Having been a government minister for more than 20 years, Qin Ruhua's mental capability was obviously better than Lin Chengzhou.

Thinking of this, Qin Ruhua's eyes flashed as he glanced at the emperor once again.

After that, an intense change occurred on his wrinkled face.

Sensing Qin Ruhua's abnormality, Lin Chengzhou raised his head and looked at Qin Ruhua again. At this time, Qin Ruhua also looked over with a meaningful look in his eyes.

After he received the message from Qin Ruhua, Lin Chengzhou's heart was in turmoil as he started to investigate intensely.

According to the message in Qin Ruhua's eyes, there were a few suspicious points.

Firstly, so far, no one had found the corpse of the Emperor. If it were a high-ranked wizard or warrior, they could naturally do it flawlessly. However, there were only a few people in the palace with true strength. Other than Chu Yue and Lord Chu, Zhao Zhentian was one of them.

Secondly, when did this person, who disguised himself as an emperor, actually kill the emperor and use the Nature Attribute Magic to change into the appearance of an emperor? There was no doubt that this person was someone from the palace. He would definitely be able to have close contact with the Emperor. However, Lee Defu and Little Wu Steel were both powerless pickers. Other than the emperors of the imperial harem, the emperor would also meet with the ministers in the morning court.

Empress Dowager?

Lin Chengzhou was shocked and immediately remembered someone.

Imperial Consort Xi!

No one knew her true origins. It was said that Imperial Consort Xi was from the Female Clan, and was born in a Organ Empire overseas. When the emperor was traveling by the sea in his early years, he accidentally met Imperial Consort Xi who floated over after being knocked unconscious by the waves. The two of them actually fell in love at first sight. From then on, Imperial Consort Xi followed Chu Hong and returned to the Shangjing City, entering the Western Palace.

However, Imperial Consort Xi was directly involved in a few cases against Minister Zhongliang, which made Chu Hong furious. Since then, Chu Hong almost never entered the Western Palace.

Imperial Consort Xi might have been ignored, but she did not fall behind. In her early years, when Imperial Consort Xi was pampered, she had also promoted some ministers. These ministers had proved to be capable men, and over time they had been promoted. In the dark, these ministers seemed to be vaguely loyal to Imperial Consort Xi.

Therefore, many of the things that Imperial Consort Xi wanted to do or wanted to influence were being done through these ministers.

If from a motive point of view, Imperial Consort Xi is indeed possible.

However, the killing of a Monarch was an extremely serious matter. Even people like Lin Chengzhou and Qin Ruhua would never do something like this unless they were forced into a dead end.

How could Imperial Consort Xi, a woman who had lost her favour for so many years, have so much guts?

No matter how he thought about it, Lin Chengzhou was still unable to accept this conclusion.

Lin Chengzhou raised his head and looked at Qin Ruhua again. Qin Ruhua was slightly squinting his eyes, but his eyeballs were rolling. Obviously, this old fox was also thinking too.

With a sigh, Lin Chengzhou thought to himself, "When the wedding is over, I will definitely visit the Qin Residence. The current situation is not something these two people, who originally had the most power, can control."

At this time, Ye Tian, Chu Yue, and Chu Yu had finished their procedures. The three of them walked down from the roof, got on a bright and dazzling carriage, and, under the guidance of the Divine Weapon Camp soldiers, left the palace.

Half a quarter of an hour later, under the watchful eyes of tens of thousands of people, Ye Tian, Chu Yue, and Chu Yu walked up to the Venerate Heavens Sect and stood before the bright white wall that was as white as jade.

Looking at the wall, Ye Tian twitched his mouth and thought to himself: It's this wall that dragged me from my previous life to here. Although he didn't regret it, Ye Tian was quite conflicted with this kind of thing where he would change a person's fate without even greeting them.

After thinking for a while, the voice of the lecturer came over again.

"Paying respect to Wen Tianbi."

Ye Tian, Chu Yue, and Chu Yu all slowly kneeled down and bowed deeply.

When Ye Tian lightly touched his forehead to the ground, a strong wave of dizziness hit him. Ye Tian's head went blank and he almost lost his consciousness.

After a long breath, Ye Tian opened his eyes wide and tried his best to maintain a clear mind.

After slightly alleviating his dizziness, Ye Tian continued to grit his teeth and lifted his head with all his might.

The wall was still as bright and clean as jade, without a hint of abnormality.

The dizziness gradually subsided. Ye Tian pulled Chu Yue and Chu Yu's hand and slowly stood up. The conductor continued loudly, "Bye, Royal Father."

Ye Tian gritted his teeth as he listened, thinking to himself, "Why are there so many red tape in this wedding ceremony?" After running so far and bowing to Wen Tianbi, he wanted to return and pay his respects to the emperor. If only they had known earlier, wouldn't it have been better to pay respects to the emperor together in the palace?

However, the imperial etiquette system was like that. Ye Tian could complain on the inside, but he didn't dare to say it out loud. Helpless, Ye Tian continued to hold Chu Yue's and Chu Yu's hands as they left the imperial examination hall. Once again, he sat in the carriage and headed back to the palace.

When Ye Tian continued to hold onto Chu Yue's and Chu Yu's small hands and went up another hundred steps, walking into the Hall of Diligent Government s, and arrived in front of the emperor, he was already panting heavily.

The warden shouted again: "Paying respect to Royal Father!"

Since Ye Tian had no parents in this world, and Chu Yue and Chu Yu's mother were no longer alive, the empress was no longer alive. All three of them needed to pay their respects to the emperor.

Ye Tian once again felt heartbroken. He tried his best to calm his panting chest, then he took a step forward and kowtowed towards the emperor.

On both sides, Chu Yue and Chu Yu also knelt down.1

The Emperor smiled and said, "Men, give me some wine."

A servant who had been standing behind the emperor held a square tray with a jade cup on it. The cup contained a colorless, transparent half cup of wine.

At this moment, Qin Ruhua suddenly frowned once again. He noticed that the people carrying the wine trays were not Lee Defu and Eunuch Lee, who were always following beside the Emperor. Instead, it was a servant girl.

This servant girl seemed familiar, but she was also very unfamiliar.

While Qin Ruhua was still confused, the servant brought the tray to Ye Tian.

At this time, Qin Ruhua suddenly thought of something. He exchanged a glance with Lin Chengzhou as fast as he could. After exchanging looks, their faces simultaneously changed.

If there was a problem with the liquor, Ye Tian would probably be killed.

At this moment, Ye Tian had already stretched out his arm and was about to carry the wine cup on the tray.

Lin Chengzhou and Qin Ruhua's arms shook at the same time. Just as they were about to stop Qin Ruhua, they heard a crisp voice say, "Royal Father, you're going to confuse your daughter."

The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly as he said, "Little Yu, today is the day of your wedding. You can't allow your temper to continue to play with you."

Chu Yu's expression could not be seen under the cover of her red hair. She was silent for a while, and seemed to have made up her mind. "The poison of the oleander wine can break the magical defense in the blood vessels and muscles, and is a top-notch medicine. I'm afraid a single wine like Royal Father would cost a hundred thousand gold taels. Isn't this wine of Royal Father too expensive? "

The emperor's eyes narrowed as a bright light shot out from his eyes and he stared straight at Chu Yu.

At this moment, Chu Yu spoke again, "Royal Father couldn't have made a mistake, right? This wine should have been prepared for me."

Finished speaking, Chu Yu stretched out her hand and picked up the wine glass on the tray. With her other hand, she gently lifted the lid and finished the wine in one gulp.

Although Ye Tian was a little worried when he saw Chu Yu drinking wine, this little girl was not a brainless person. She was currently a level 13 poison master, and a bowl of poison wine was a lethal weapon to others. On the contrary, to her, it was a tonic.
