Chapter 162



This was destined to be an extraordinary night.

Master Guang\'an of Guanyuan Temple was standing under the thousand-year-old tree in the temple.

Looking at the dull Ziwei star in the sky momentarily shining with dazzling light, he sighed, realizing that things hadn\'t gone wrong after all.

At the break of dawn, everything in the Imperial Palace had been appropriately handled.

When Xuanyuan Sheng woke up in Yangxin Hall, Qi Tan was standing next to him.

"Where is the empress?"

Qi Tan cautiously answered, "The empress has been imprisoned in the sky cell by Prince Xian."

"How did the Prince Xian get here?" Xuanyuan Sheng asked.

Qi Tan hesitated, unsure of what to say.

"Tell me what\'s going on," Xuanyuan Sheng demanded weakly.

"Qi Tan, you may step back! I will personally explain the situation to His Majesty," came another voice.

Xuanyuan Sheng looked at the approaching Xuanyuan Yan, "What are you doing here?"

"My dear emperor, it\'s exactly what you\'re thinking."

He hadn\'t expected his brother to be so foolish as to let a woman manipulate him.

He thought it would be a big battle, but unexpectedly everything fell into his lap quite effortlessly, which was a pleasant surprise.

Xuanyuan Sheng sat up, "You, Xuanyuan Yan, are you rebelling?"

"I advise you to worry about your own health, emperor. The poison you were given was carefully prepared by your beloved woman. It\'s a miracle you woke up today."

She was ruthless, poisoning the dagger. Now the poison had entered his lungs, beyond the aid of any medicine.

"I should\'ve gotten rid of you long ago," Xuanyuan Sheng was furious.

Xuanyuan Yan sneered, "Xuanyuan Sheng, saying these things now is useless."

"You plotted against me and my mother, leading to her death in a fire. You deserve this."

"There\'s something I forgot to tell you. All these years you haven\'t had any children. Isn\'t that surprising to you?"

Xuanyuan Sheng thought of Murong Yan and the child she was carrying.

It seemed Xuanyuan Yan knew what he was thinking.

"Were you thinking of your beloved empress? You don\'t know that the child she\'s carrying is not yours. You are incapable of impregnating them."

"Let me tell you more about your empress. She\'s from the Southern Region, and is their Princess. She had a plan when she first followed you into the palace."

"But, thanks to her, your current poisoned state is quite satisfying. For the sake of our brotherhood, I\'ll give you a decent funeral."

Xuanyuan Sheng spat out a mouthful of black blood, "You were the one who caused my mother\'s death, weren\'t you!"

"It seems you\'re not as foolish as I thought."

"So you never lost your sight, right?"

At this moment Xuanyuan Sheng, besides rage, felt a deep sense of helplessness.

He had thought everything was under control; he had no idea that his brother, under his very nose, had been playing a long game and he hadn\'t noticed at all.

"I was indeed blind, but I got cured a while back. Dear brother, enjoy your last moments!"

"I won\'t go down that easily," Xuanyuan Sheng said defiantly, "Xuanyuan Yan, do you really think that once I\'m dead, you\'ll be able to claim the throne successfully?"

"No longer need to worry about whether I can successfully ascend to the throne, as my imperial brother can\'t see it now."

Slowly, Xuanyuan Yan walked out of Xuanyuan Sheng\'s bedroom. Seeing this, Qi Tan asked, "Master, what should we do with the person inside?"

"You have followed him for many years, now you should accompany him."

With a deep look at Xuanyuan Yan, Qi Tan continued, "...Master, afterwards..."

"Did you get addicted to being a eunuch and want to continue?" Xuanyuan Yan joked.

Qi Tan explained, "What I mean is, how should I get out of this?"

"That\'s something you should figure out. I remember that you always have your own ideas."

By the time Qi Tan returned to the room, Xuanyuan Sheng had fallen unconscious again.

For this emperor who he had followed for five years, Qi Tan didn\'t have much affection.

After all, he wasn\'t kind to him at the beginning. He had struggled to get where he is today.

Xuanyuan Sheng was ill-tempered, venting his anger on the people around him whenever he got angry, causing a lot of harm to Qi Tan.

Even after becoming a favorite of his, Qi Tan\'s life was still difficult. The only benefit was that he had made a lot of money.

In the middle of April in the 178th year of Tianqi, Emperor Sheng was assassinated by spies from the southern border and died at the age of thirty-two.

The grandeur of the national funeral was rarely seen in the world.

The person in charge of all this was the benevolent prince, Xuanyuan Yan. People sighed at the deep brotherly love he showed.

The chief eunuch, Qi Tan, who was by Emperor Sheng\'s side, hanged himself out of grief over the emperor\'s death and this created a moving story of the master-servant relationship.

Emperor Sheng had no heir. Looking all over Tianqi, the only one capable of ascending to the throne was Xuanyuan Yan.

The senior officials, led by Yu Hongye, jointly wrote a letter sincerely requesting Xuanyuan Yan to succeed the throne. The coronation ceremony was set for the end of April.

Although Xuanyuan Yan has not formally ascended to the throne, the power transition within the court has been completed smoothly, just waiting for the succession ceremony at the end of the month.

Everyone in the palace had changed, and Xuanyuan Yan had moved into the Yangxin Hall. By his side was Qi Tan, now called Ming Qi.

"Master, everything in the palace has been properly handled, but there is Gao Jiayue who insists on seeing you."

Xuanyuan Yan was looking at the memorial on his desk, "Send her away."

"Master, she just knelt outside the hall and refused to leave. The guard tried to take her away, but she started fighting them."

Anyone who sought to see the master at this point was merely showing off their ambition.

He did not know if the master still harbored any feelings for her. However, in his opinion, such a capricious woman like her was not worthy of the master.

Sitting in his chair, Xuanyuan Yan flipped through a memorial, "Let her in."

After Gao Jiayue entered the Yangxin Hall, she complained, "Yan, I just told them I had to see you, but they didn\'t let me in. You have to punish them."

"What relationship do I have with you?" Xuanyuan Yan didn\'t even raise his head.

Gao Jiayue took a few steps forward, "Yan, you must still be angry about the previous matter. I have explained it to you last time. Everything I said was true. I was really forced at that time."

Xuanyuan Yan shrugged off her plea, "You\'ve seen the error of your ways now, but don\'t you think it\'s too late?"

“Moreover, I have said before, you are not worthy to utter my name.”

"Ming Qi, escort her out. Deal with her in the same way as the other women. I don\'t want to see her again.”

Ming Qi summoned the guards at the palace gate and dragged Gao Jiayue out.

"Master, we have a situation. The woman in the sky prison has gone missing!” Ming Jiu hurriedly ran in.

Xuanyuan Yan lifted his head, "Gone?"

There were numerous guards in the sky prison yet she managed to escape.
