Chapter 135 There Is No Family Ties In The Tian Family! The Family Has No Moral Integrity!
Sun-Moon Dynasty, Imperial Palace
The Empress Dowager Murong Yi looked a bit more haggard.
The forceful intervention of the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace left her with mixed feelings.
Now that she had lost control of the army, how could an Empress Dowager without troops deter the many prominent families within the dynasty?
But without the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace, they wouldn't be able to withstand Qin Tianjiao.
The Empress Dowager couldn't help but wonder, how had the Sun-Moon Dynasty fallen to this point?
"Aunt, His Majesty has been in the zoo for several months now, unseen by anyone. I'm worried..." Murong Dan, lacking his usual composure, couldn't help but speak when he noticed the Empress Dowager seemed distracted.
At this point, Murong Dan was close to hating Murong Yan!
You say you were mistreated by Qin Tianjiao, then why did you come back!
And now, not only did Murong Yan lose her position as the Saintess, but the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace also made a complete U-turn in their attitude towards the Murong family!
If you don't come back and stay by Qin Tianjiao's side, how can we seek refuge with Qin Tianjiao!
Now that both options have failed, can we not resent Murong Yan?
"What are you afraid of? This Sun-Moon Dynasty won't collapse!" Murong Yi said coldly.
"Aunt!
I'm not worried about the Sun-Moon Dynasty, I'm worried about the Murong family! Within the court, all the major families have sided with the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace, and the Murong family has now become a scar on the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace. With Murong Fu in the front and Murong Yan in the back...
And I've found out that the reason for the change in the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace's attitude is because they brought back a child from outside!
That child has already been designated as the Saint Child by the higher-ups!
Murong Yan has no chance of a comeback, and with this scar on us, I'm afraid the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace might not resist the urge to..." Murong Dan made a slashing motion with his hand.
Murong Yi's face paled slightly upon hearing this, but she remained composed. She could feel the distance and disregard the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace had towards her...
"Aunt... I heard that His Majesty's situation doesn't seem to be stable either. Although the young dragon is playful, he's also ruthless..."
"Enough! Do you know what crime it is to sow discord between me and His Majesty? I'll spare you this time due to your first offense, now leave!" Murong Yi said angrily.
"Yes..."
Murong Dan bowed and left, his face now very grim. From Murong Yi's reaction, he could tell that his aunt might use the Murong family as a scapegoat!
By using the interests of the Murong family to appease the dissatisfaction of the major families within the Sun-Moon Dynasty, they could also cover up the scar for the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace. This would help solidify her and the young emperor's position!
"Aunt... if you let me finish, I wonder if you would still consider your precious son in everything!" Murong Dan coldly laughed as he returned to the family. The senior members of the family, as well as the elders and ancestors, had all gathered together.
Murong Dan recounted his conversation with the Empress Dowager word for word, and the group of elders fell silent.
"Hehe, a daughter married is like water poured out, at this point, we have nothing to hesitate about."
"Elder, give the order!"
The elders sitting at the top all had silver hair, but the majestic aura emanating from them all indicated their cultivation at the Late Stage of the Self-Liberation Realm!
The leader among them even had the strength of the Peak of the Sit-Forget Realm.
The heritage of the first family of the Sun-Moon Dynasty was truly astonishing.
"The history of the Murong family predates the birth of the Sun-Moon Dynasty. I never thought that one day we would be despised by the masses!"
The elder sitting at the top sighed, self-deprecatingly smiled, and continued,
"Has the Third Ancestor not returned yet?"
"Back, Elder. The Third Ancestor's token is all normal, so he should be back soon..."
"Well... I've already contacted Wan'er, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, and she still welcomes us!
Since the Sun-Moon Dynasty has been unfaithful, don't blame us for turning our backs!
Three Ancestor will rescue Yan'er, and then we will break out of the capital!"
"Understood!!!"
Who would have thought that the female official serving beside the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty would turn out to be the legitimate daughter of the first family of the Sun-Moon Dynasty?
As the saying goes, the dynasty may change, but the prominent families remain...
The basic rule of family inheritance is not to put all your eggs in one basket!
The Murong family had decided to ally with the new boss, so they naturally had to show sincerity!
And what sincerity could be more convincing than the head of the young emperor!
Moreover, they had a double insurance policy, which was to rescue Murong Yan at all costs.
Murong Wan'er took the upper-class route, while Murong Yan took the route aligned with Qin Tianjiao.
The rise of Qin Tianjiao was unstoppable, even if the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace found a genius, could they catch up with Qin Tianjiao?
Don't joke!
After analyzing by several elders of the Murong family, the probability of Qin Tianjiao becoming the Great Emperor was as high as ninety-five point eight percent!
The remaining four point two percent was if Qin Tianjiao lived long enough! Just like the previous idiot Great Emperor who dug his own grave!
On the other hand, Murong Yan successfully reunited with the Third Ancestor and escaped from the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace. The Murong family quickly took action!
They had to be fast, catch the opponent off guard, or else the Cloud Firmament Heavenly Palace would crush them...
The seven, eight, nine, and ninety-four elders of the Sit-Forget Realm Late Stage launched a night raid on the zoo in the Imperial Palace, intending to present the young emperor's head as a challenge!
But when they rushed in, they were dumbfounded!
They knew about the two Great Monsters of the Self-Liberation Realm, which was why only four elders acted to finish the battle quickly.
But how come there were two Great Monsters of the Self-Liberation Realm?
Four against four!
The young emperor had disappeared without a trace!
"We're ambushed! Retreat!"
The four elders of the Murong family were in turmoil!
How could the young emperor hide so well!
If they hadn't turned against him to kill him, they would have been deceived by him.
He had actually colluded with the Monster Race!
"We can't let them go!"
The four elders wanted to escape, but the old eunuch and the Green Snake and White Snake were anxious!
If news of the Sun-Moon Dynasty Emperor colluding with the Monster Race leaked out, things would be in chaos!
For the high-level experts of the Self-Liberation Realm to escape, unless there was a great expert of the Concealed God Realm to stop them, let alone four people!
The elders of the Murong family ran back to their clan, while the remaining elders, seeing the situation was not right, without saying a word, led the clan members to charge out of the city!
At this point, the young emperor was in a dilemma, and with things having reached this stage, he had to act in advance!
Slay the monsters! Execute the traitors!
Murong Yi heard a noise in her sleep and opened her eyes drowsily to see a figure. The chilling aura of the sword in that figure's hand instantly dispelled her drowsiness and allowed her to see the person clearly!
It was her good son who she had sacrificed everything for to protect the throne!
At this moment, the young emperor's face was as cold as ice, and the coldness in his eyes made Murong Yi shudder.
"Zheng'er... why?"
"Mother, I didn't want it to come to this, but it's too late..."
*Splurt*
The crimson blood stained Murong Yi's nightgown, dyeing her bed and her heart red...
"Zheng'er... you've grown up... Mother... can rest assured now..."
The young emperor's fingers holding the sword hilt appeared somewhat pale from exertion...
He thought he was prepared...
He thought he wouldn't feel pain...
He thought she would question him...
He thought...
