Chapter 986 (Announcing to the World)
“He should not have come back. The Dao Sea is boundless, and the mountains are endless. It is a place where humans cannot survive,” Shan Junren whispered. He understood the meaning behind Han Ya’s actions – a 100% certainty of killing Ye Hua, leaving no chance for survival.
Han Ya said in a deep voice, “Perhaps this Ye Hua is fake.”
“Good, if it’s fake, it’s easy to handle. But if it’s real, how do we deal with it? I don’t want to hear the people shouting for someone outside the royal family again!” Huang Fei said coldly, still vividly remembering the events of the past.
At first, he didn’t pay much attention, but later, his words held more weight, even surpassing the words for the emperor himself.
Moreover, this Ye Hua was too presumptuous, thinking he was an emperor and making decisions for the emperor’s subjects. Where did he get the audacity?
Such a person was undoubtedly a menace, so they needed to find a way to eliminate him. Fortunately, luck was on their side, as Ye Hua died at the hands of the Demon Emperor, a task originally assigned to Han Ya, making it even more perfect.
Shan Junren solemnly said, “Your Majesty, if this Ye Hua is real, it will be a big trouble! Even more troublesome than in the past!”
“The Prime Minister is right. After Ye Hua’s death, in order to show great virtue, the emperor posthumously appointed Ye Hua as the Dauntless General of Morality, a title rivalling that of the Emperor. But now that Ye Hua is alive and back, he is the living Dauntless General of Morality, on equal footing with you, as you once said,” Han Ya’s words darkened Huang Fei’s expression even more. Who knew if this Ye Hua would really come back alive!
What’s the point of posthumously honouring a dead person? The problem was that the dead person had returned!
“I ask you all, is there a solution?” Huang Fei questioned sternly, feeling troubled and annoyed.
This was like lifting a stone only to drop it on one’s foot. Why did he bother posthumously appointing a Dauntless General of Morality without considering the consequences? Although the effect was good at the time, now…
“Your Majesty, I suggest observing the situation for now. Verify the authenticity of this Ye Hua. I believe Ye Shen will confirm it,” Shan Junren advised. Instead of speculating, it would be better to see how others make their moves first and then determine the next steps.
“Han Ya, what do you think?” Huang Fei asked in a low voice.
Han Ya took a breath and said, “Your Majesty, I have a plan.”
“Oh? Let’s hear it,” Huang Fei became interested.
Han Ya spoke quietly, “Your Majesty, the matter involving the Ninth Prince and Qian Yuqing, you should be aware of it.”
Huang Fei instantly understood.
“Prime Minister, what is your opinion on this matter?” Huang Fei inquired.
Shan Junren pondered for a moment and respectfully said, “Your Majesty, although the wedding of Qian Yuqing and Ye Hua is not officially completed, after a thousand years, the news of Ninth Prince’s affair has already spread within the city, and everyone is optimistic about them!”
Pausing for a moment, Shan Junren continued with a cold tone, “If Your Majesty wants to use this to get rid of Ye Hua, it must be announced in the Spirit City before everyone knows that Ye Hua has returned!”
Han Ya nodded, “If Ye Hua dares to act recklessly, Your Majesty has a hundred ways to convict him! Of course, the prerequisite is that Ye Hua still cares about Qian Yuqing.”
“Good!” Huang Fei clapped his hands abruptly, then stood up.
“As long as Ye Hua is not eliminated, it will be a thorn in my heart. Tomorrow morning, I will announce Yun’er and Qian Yuqing’s wedding to the world!” Huang Fei was initially reluctant about this matter, considering Qian Yuqing’s past connection with Ye Hua, even though she hadn’t married him, there had been a history.
But Huang Yun is his most valued son. If this son likes it, who is the father to disapprove?
However, now it’s not a matter of liking or disliking; it’s about using this incident to provoke Ye Hua. With that, he would have an excuse to eliminate this Dauntless General of Morality, and everyone would have nothing to say. They would even praise the emperor’s wisdom.
Since the decision was made, Huang Fei immediately drafted a decree and handed it over to the chief manager to be announced early the next morning.
Shan Junren and Han Ya left one after the other.
Huang Fei, however, went to Huang Yun’s sleeping palace to check the situation.
“The Emperor arrives!” A high-pitched voice echoed.
Huang Yun, who had no intention of sleeping at this time, was sitting on a chair in contemplation. Upon hearing the outside noise, he immediately got up to greet.
“Son pays respects to Father!” Huang Yun respectfully called.
“Rise.”
Father and son entered the room, with Huang Yun standing beside Huang Fei, asking respectfully, “Father, what brings you here so late? Is there anything you need to command?”
“Yun’er, tomorrow your wedding with Qian Yuqing will be announced to the world,” Huang Fei got straight to the point.
Huang Yun’s eyes lit up, and joy immediately appeared on his face. He hurriedly knelt and thanked, “Thank you, Father, for granting your child’s wish!”
“Have you seen Ye Hua?” Huang Fei asked, puzzled.
Huang Yun, still kneeling on the ground, shook his body, and after a while, he said in a deep voice, “I have.”
“How does it feel?” Huang Fei inquired.
“Very strong.”
Huang Fei chuckled lightly, “Indeed, very strong. He even dared to fight back after coming back, but this time… Father won’t let him go. You should understand what I mean.”
Huang Yun was not a fool. When he heard him mention Ye Hua, he knew why he was in such urgency.
To announce the marriage to the world before everyone knew about Ye Hua’s return, making Qian Yuqing the woman of the royal family. As for Ye Hua, he was nothing!
If you dared to touch the woman of the royal family, the entire Spirit City would besiege you.
“Father, I understand! I will follow Father’s arrangements in everything.”
Huang Fei was pleased, stood up, and patted his son’s shoulder, “Get ready to be the groom.”
“Yes.”
Honestly, back then, Huang Fei wanted to marry Qian Yuqing, but Ye Hua snatched her away. This time, it was considered arranging for his son what he himself couldn’t get.
Is it considered letting his son have what he couldn’t?
“Son bids farewell to Father.” Watching Father leave, Huang Yun finally showed a happy smile on his face. The timing of Ye Hua’s appearance was quite good, making Father agree. He thought he would have to persuade him with many words.
At the mere thought of tomorrow approaching, Huang Yun couldn’t conceal the excitement in his heart.
However, in the Ye family, Ye Shen was finally awakened by Ye Chen and others.
“Damned beast! I’m going to hack him alive!” Ye Shen opened his eyes and shouted angrily.
“Father, please don’t act impulsively. You can’t beat big brother,” Ye Liangcai, grabbing his father, spoke a harsh truth, quite disheartening.
Ye Shen was frozen, scenes from just moments ago echoing in his mind.
I can’t even beat my own son, and he even tossed me around!!
Ye Chen noticed that his father’s figure suddenly became much older, so he hurriedly asked, “Father, what should we do now?”
