"kill!"
With such a generous reward, brave men were sure to emerge. The soldiers behind Wu Daoyi rushed forward and fought with the men brought by An Yi.
However, they had just fought a major battle with the Sixth Prince's army, and although they ultimately won, many of them were wounded.
An Yi brought his elite troops into the palace this time, and they quickly defeated Wu Daoyi's men, leaving them begging for mercy on their knees.
"You bunch of trash!" Wu Daoyi cursed as he swung his weapon at An Yi.
An Yiben was Lei Tingjun's most skilled and elite bodyguard. After taking Xu Jinhuan's new version of the Loyalty Pill, his martial arts skills were also improved.
Now, thanks to Xu Jinhuan's breakthrough, his martial arts skills have improved even further, and Wu Daoyi is no match for him at all.
Therefore, after only a few rounds of fighting, Wu Daoyi's head fell to the ground.
"The culprit has been executed. Do you still want to continue fighting?" An Yi asked coldly.
The rebels, who had been fighting fiercely, instinctively turned to look in Wu Daoyi's direction upon hearing the sound. The first thing they saw was Wu Daoyi's head lying in a pool of blood, his eyes wide open.
"Wu Daoyi is dead, what's the point of fighting? I surrender!" A soldier quickly threw down his long sword and shouted with his hands raised.
Following this soldier's example, Wu Daoyi's rebel army threw down their weapons and surrendered.
"I told you the Fifth Prince is the chosen one, the true Son of Heaven! You see, I was right!" a minister standing in the corner shouted.
The other ministers also realized what was happening and, while jogging towards An Yi, loudly echoed his sentiments.
"Yes, the Fifth Prince is exceptionally talented and cares deeply for his people. He is the only suitable candidate to be the new emperor. I urge the Fifth Prince to ascend the throne so that I may conquer the world!"
"May the Fifth Prince ascend the throne!"
"May the Fifth Prince ascend the throne!"
The ministers knelt respectfully beside An Yi, their faces sincere as they shouted loudly.
An Yi had no time to pay attention to these people at the moment. He was looking around in confusion, searching for his master!
"I'm here." Xu Jinhuan snapped her fingers lightly, causing her invisibility ability to quickly fade, and she appeared directly on the dragon throne.
Before An Yi could speak, the ministers who had just been welcoming the Fifth Prince to the throne were already jumping up and down in anger.
"You disrespectful girl, how dare you sit on the dragon throne? Where do you place imperial power? Where do you place the Fifth Prince?"
"Hurry up and tell me your name, or I'll go and confiscate your entire family's property right now!"
"What are these guards good for? How could they let her sit on the dragon throne? What bad luck! If she tarnishes the dragon aura of my great empire, she will be a sinner for all eternity!"
"Hey man next to her, what are you standing there for? Quickly pull her away!"
Xu Jinhuan remained motionless on the dragon throne, quietly watching these old fellows jump around. Only after they finished speaking did she sneer.
"You've all finished speaking? Then it's my turn. An Yi, whoever just spoke, execute him on the spot."
"Yes, Master!"
An Yi's eyes gleamed as he looked at Xu Jinhuan on the dragon throne. Was there anything more joyful in the world than seeing his master ascend the throne? The answer, of course, was no!
The ministers who thought they were speaking up for the Fifth Prince were filled with disbelief when they saw "Lei Tingjun" being so respectful to the woman on the dragon throne.
"Fifth Prince, you actually acknowledge a mere woman as your master! Isn't this a disgrace to our Great Khan..."
A minister instinctively began to preach, but before he could finish, the fifth prince he was referring to responded with the knife in his hand.
Clang!
A blood-splattered head fell from a great height, the spurting blood staining the court robes of several nearby ministers.
"No, you can't kill us! I'm a veteran of three reigns, I am..."
An Yi didn't care about being a veteran or not; he only followed his master's orders. With a swift stroke, another head fell to the ground.
"No, don't kill me, please..."
An Yi seemed not to hear, and with a loud crash, another person was added to the pool of blood.
Soon, all those who had just cursed Xu Jinhuan returned to the embrace of Mother Earth.
The somber scene caused the ministers who had just run out from the corner to return to their original positions.
Xu Jinhuan placed his hand on the dragon throne, smiling as he looked at the fearful expressions on these people's faces. "From today onwards, this major undertaking is mine. Do you have any objections?"
"It's fine if you have opinions, you'll just end up like your dog emperor, struck by lightning and killed."
As Xu Jinhuan spoke, he gently moved his fingers, and the headless corpse in the pool of blood turned into charred remains with a "crackling" sound.
The ministers, who were asked the same question three times by different people: ...
How could they dare to have any objections!
An Yi, standing nearby, immediately led his men to kneel on the ground and shouted loudly, "Welcome to the throne, Master! Long live the Emperor!"
Xu Jinhuan smiled and waved his hand, "All of you, please rise."
Suddenly, she casually pointed to one of the ministers in the hall.
"You, help me write down the list of the dead."
The young man who had been assigned the task looked up in surprise. When he saw that Xu Jinhuan was actually looking at him, he quickly walked to the small table with writing brush, ink, paper and inkstone on the side of the hall and began to write seriously.
"This damned emperor is truly a nemesis of loyal officials. Out of so many ministers, he's the only clean one left."
After Xu Jinhuan finished speaking, he glanced disdainfully at the ministers who were huddled together.
"An Yi, arrest the rest and put them in jail. Interrogate them one by one, and don't let any old cases go unpunished. We must give the people justice."
The young man who had been summoned by Xu Jinhuan to write the death list showed excitement in his eyes upon hearing the news, and looked at Xu Jinhuan with a hint of expectation.
Upon hearing this, An Yi immediately accepted the order, instructing some to clean up the battlefield, some to take custody of the prisoners, and some to escort the ministers to the imperial prison.
Xu Jinhuan stood up from the dragon throne, and she smiled at Zhou Ziheng beside her.
"Now, all we need to do is spread the word."
After speaking, Xu Jinhuan cleared his throat and used the golden power he had just obtained to spread his voice throughout the entire Great Gan, accompanied by the classic thunderous intimidation.
"The emperor of the Great Gan Dynasty was incompetent and foolish, aided and abetted the tyrant, and disregarded human life, which angered the gods and caused them to send down natural disasters as punishment."
But instead of repenting, he became even more wicked, causing immense suffering to the people. I, guided by the God of Joy and Benevolence, came to this place and have now ordered him to be struck by lightning.
Now that the fortune of this place has been destroyed, a great calamity is feared. The benevolent deity, being extremely kind, wishes to assist you. Therefore, from this day forward, this land and its inhabitants shall be under my rule. Do any of you object?
This message reached every household at the same time, and the people of Dagan rushed out of their homes in panic.
"Did you hear that?"
"You heard that too?!"
"Someone with such supernatural powers must be someone the Benevolent God trusts. Since he was sent by the Benevolent God, there must be no problem. I trust the Benevolent God!"
