Everyone also waiting for him to cross the circle, they didn't want to believed they were ruled by a faked emperor. All of them become impatience some of them can't help gritting their teeth, some are tapping their feet on the floor profusely all of them can't wait to see what he would do.
The Emperor clenched his jaw, whatever happened worst come to worst he just gonna died he doesn't need to carry this humiliation, he raised his feet the moment he landed his feet past through the circled, he suddenly covered with crimson liquid who emerged from the floor, the liquid enter his nose, ears and mouth The emperor can't even scream his body jolted as if he was choked.
Peoples watch it in horror, he can't breath or moved all he can do is accepted this excruciating pained, he is wronged he didn't want to die especially died like this, his finger try to reaching Ming Yue Yin asking for her help, Ming Yue yin who also shocked from what she had seen notice his cry for help, he hated this man to the core but there's once upon a time he is her beloved Father, Ming Yue Yin raised her legs then he kick him out from the circle.
"You are not the Emperor son and we didn't have blood-related but it didn't change the fact that you have raised me for sixteen years, this is my gratitude from her on, we're even" Ming Yue Yin bite her finger,the blood flown from her finger then she drop her blood on the crystal, somehow the blood penetrates the crystal, the small blood flown inside the crystal as if it's alive then the blood reaches the read doted on the center, the two red dote colliding then it merged to one and the crystal shined with bright white light.
"She is the first Emperor Liangzu descendant!" one of the official shock and amazed.
"She carries the royal pureblood!!" another official is overwhelmed, they never saw anything more magical than this.
The crystal shine become dimmer and everything slowly back to normal, she takes off the ring on her hand than the qi inside her body spread like wildfire the strong pressure make everyone fall on their knees some who have better cultivation stagger they barely can withstand her power, they never knew Ming Yue Yin can be this strong.
Of course, Zhao Li Xin and the four King palace looks calm as ever.
The emperor stumble and fall on the floor while coughing, he felt the blood in his veins is sucked dry his dantian is not broken but empty, it's weird he felt very weak, his cultivation is gone without a trace, he tries to move his Qi to his dantian but is no used is like leaking bottle his dantian can't hold his Qi energy, his heart stirred suddenly engulfs with fear.
Ming Yue Yin crouch in front of him "Thank to you, I have blessed by the last power of sacred tree, because of you I met a lot of irreplaceable people, thanks to you I'm not a weak, gullible child anymore, and because of that I will not kill you, you will live and see how much difference between you and my Father"
He looks at her with shocked and disbelieved, she has the same eyes like his brother Ming Ze she even exude the same aura like him, he is lost….the moment he let this little girl alive he had lost, he just didn't know yet, how stupid he is, everything he had sacrificed and done is all for nothing, it's all worthless....utterly worthless.
The Emperor burst to laugh, he laughs so hard he forgot about his pained he just wanted to laugh, laugh at his stupidity, his ambitions, his loss ant the end he can never win from his brother, all his Son has become idiot because his own doing, his talented son had died without remains and all his daughters is stupid spoiled brat, none of them worth compare to one his brother daughter, how funny is that? How cruel is that? Tears fall on his face.
"Get him out of here" Ming Yue Yin grimace, the soldier with tiger marks on his chest enter te room he drags the Emperor who still laughing endlessly out of the room, in her hand, she clenched the complete tiger tally, it's clear for everyone the Era of Emperor Ming Wang is end.
She climbs the stairs then she pulls the chair back to the previous place, she takes a deep breath a moment later she sits on the golden chair, the chair is hard and cold she wonders why people would kill for this, she sighs then she leans her back slowly.
General Fu kneels on the floor, then he shouted "LONG LIVE FOR THE EMPRESS!!"
Zhang Yu Hong, Wu Tian Zi, and everyone follow the sit they all kneel simultaneously cheered for the next ruler of Liangzu, Zhao Li Xin and the four King palace nodded his head slightly, Lory also nodded her head with proud smiles bloomed on her face, Ming Yue Yin feel hot on her eyes, her smiles trembles because the overwhelmed feeling, she closed her eyes then take a deep breath.
"You may Rise!" she said solemnly.
____________________________________________
The next day the citizen of Liangzu was shocked by what happened in the imperial palace, they all anger for what happened to Emperor Ming Ze and princess Yue Yin, and after they know Emperor Ming Wang had no royal blood eve a drop they even more furious, the Emperor like to live in luxury he has so many concubines to indulged, he also not so bright compare to Emperor Ming Ze that's why there's no real progress after he becomes an Emperor, everything the citizen have know is all because Ming Ze Emperor painstakingly effort to widen their territory with General Fu who strengthens their Military.
They also hear the family of Prime minister Guan who had an illicit relationship with the Emperor concubines who end up having Wang Ming was sentenced to killed and banished every one who has a relation with the family. Then the old prime minister Wu Tian Zi is reinstated to his old position as Prime minister, The grand tutor Zhang Yu Hong also back to his old position as the Empress tutor and advisor.
The old empress and concubines were sent home to their place, they have married with a fake emperor their status and child means nothing because none of them have royal blood, and the thorough investigation would be held to anyone who involved with the death of Emperor Ming Ze and colluding with the emperor Ming Wang.
Then the half tiger tally was given back to General Fu since no one should have absolute power not even for the Empress, the citizen praised the new Empress as wise and fair ruler, the all have high hopes for the new era of the Liangzu Kingdom.
Inside the Liangzu palace, two women walk side by side without anyone followed them, there just the two of them. On of them wear red robes with golden phoenix embroidery and intricate hairstyle with a gold hairpin, while the other woman wears more modest white and deep purple robes with silver bluebell flower on it, her hair let loose behind her back.
"How are you feeling?" Lory smiles.
Ming Yue Yin sighs "Weird…I can't sleep in the emperor chamber, so I would knock down the whole courtyard and make anew one" she nodded her head firmly
"You have money for that?" Lory raised her eyebrows.
"I used my own money I don't take the kingdom treasury and after all, I can't sleep there who knows what the last emperor do on his owned chamber" Ming Yue Yin feel disgusted, Ming Wang had a very active and colorful sex life, only the imperial bedroom wall could tell.
Lory grimaces "If you have more money, knockdown the imperial library too" Lory mouth twitch remembers what she had seen in the library.
Ming Yue Yin eyes question her and Lory replied with meaningful gaze, understand what Lory means is, Ming Yue Yin, shakes her head helplessly
'What the hell these people doing in her palace?'
"So, I heard you not gonna stay?" Ming Yue Yin suddenly asked.
Lory nodded "I have things to do and so is Li Xin"
"Yeah I know, you need to gather all the fragments to break your cursed" Ming Yue Yin understands at least this far "You have any idea where the next fragments are?"
Lory heaved tiredly "I have a weird dream…."
'Pfffttt' Ming Yue Yin can't hold her laughter, Lory also laughs they remember how they met the first time inside the dream.
"I bet you do!" she laughs so hard until she wiped the tears on the corner of her eyes "I hope this time is easier"
Lory stifles "Well I'm not counting on it"
Ming Yue Yin understand what she meant she just smiles at Lory, they eventually sit on the small bench the sun goes down the blue sky is painted with pink and red color, the flock of bird flew back on their nest sign the world another day has past, the orange light illuminated their face both of them fall in silent, quietly they enjoy the calm evening.
"It's gonna be hard from here on," Lory said with her eyes remain at the beautiful sunset.
"I'm a King's daughter, my life is not supposed to be easy…." Ming Yue Yin smiles, the sun sinks behind the cloud living the sky painted with red color.
Lory smiles "You got that right…."
