Quick Wear: The Pure Beauty Becomes the Boss's Favorite

Chapter 524: Cruel Emperor x Optimistic Dragon 03

Autumn of the 7632nd year of the Star Calendar.

The eldest son of the Styrian Empire, Meloeus, and his nephew Yoruba buried the Crown Prince Areli who died of serious injuries and the Crown Princess who committed suicide on the battlefield.

Half a month later, Meloeus succeeded to the throne.

When he ascended the throne, he directly named Yoruba as the first in line to the imperial throne.

Simply put, it means to appoint his nephew as the crown prince.

Tarasha, who had gone from being a queen to a queen mother, understood that her son intended to abdicate and let others take over after Yoruba came of age, and the imperial ministers could see that too.

Tarasha and the ministers only hope that the dandy new emperor can stay quietly until the little prince grows up, and never give up halfway!

Their demands on the new emperor were low.

Because of the ridiculous things Meloeus had done before, which could not be told in three days and three nights, no one thought he could be a qualified emperor.

But he grew up to be a competent emperor, which surprised the people of the empire.

Since he ascended the throne, the new emperor, who was not favored by his subjects, suppressed all voices and took control of the political power as quickly as possible.

The disturbances within the empire were completely annihilated.

He also began to investigate the assassination of the late emperor on the front line and the kidnapping of the Crown Princess by federal spies, and targeted a group of nobles.

One of the nobles is the heroine's father.

Meloeus studied the plot of the original book sent to him by System 729 in depth and found that the heroine's father had rebelled against the villain Yoruba when he was a child.

Duke Ethan had long had ties with the Federation, and made a great contribution to the Federation's destruction of the Styrian Empire in the middle of the plot.

Otherwise, he would not have continued to hold a high position in the federal government after the destruction of the Stiaan Empire and would not have married his daughter to Inigo.

This old fox has long been a hidden chess piece of the Federation.

After Meloeus gathered his power, he first started investigating the truth of the assassination of the previous emperor, and facts proved that Duke Ethan was indeed guilty.

The late emperor went to the Ike galaxy to comfort the border soldiers. He was accompanied by a guard team all the way and the security protection was in place. Even if a general of the empire was assassinated, it would not be the fate of the emperor who was so well protected.

And the problem lies with Duke Ethan.

Duke Ethan was a close confidant of the late emperor and had accompanied the emperor to the Ike galaxy. He took advantage of the late emperor's trust, put a colorless and odorless poison in the food, and sent assassins to kill the late emperor.

First he poisoned her, then he lured in assassins.

The late emperor died without any resistance due to the double scheme of Duke Ethan.

Duke Ethan had been with the late emperor for nearly two hundred years, so he naturally understood that the late emperor's martial power was quite good. Although he was not invincible, he was not weak either. He was afraid that the assassin would not be able to kill him with one strike, so he poisoned him in advance.

Ultimately, the late emperor was unable to resist the assassin or cry out for help and was killed by the assassin. This led to the perfect closed-room murder case.

Now Meloeus is investigating the old case again, following clues to trace the source and finally finding evidence that Duke Ethan murdered the late emperor and surrendered to the enemy and committed treason.

The evidence was conclusive and Duke Ethan was imprisoned and executed.

As for Duke Ethan's relatives, including his daughter, the heroine, they were all imprisoned and sentenced to a crime of collective punishment. No one in the entire Duke's Mansion was spared and had to accompany Duke Ethan to his grave.

Duke Ethan's entire family was wiped out, not a single one was left alive!

Meloeus had no mercy on this traitor who surrendered to the enemy and betrayed his country, nor would he show leniency outside the law or leave any future trouble for himself.

The heroine died on the execution platform before she even appeared on the stage.

Meloeus took away her heroine's halo and threw it directly to his little nephew, and planned to snatch the hero's halo and give it to him when he had the chance in the future.

At that time, the villain with the halo of the two protagonists will be the legitimate protagonist.

Speaking of Yoruba in the original book, this guy was portrayed as a cruel and ruthless emperor. The experience of losing his father and mother at a young age made him sensitive, suspicious and distrustful of anyone around him.

But he had great trust in the heroine who grew up with him, and had made an engagement with her early on, but his fiancée fell in love with Inigo.

The hatred for his father's murder and his wife's theft made Yoruba, who was the emperor at the time, hate Inigo to the core, but he also knew that it would be difficult to pacify the empire and did not go to war.

But he couldn't withstand Inigo's repeated provocations.

Although the original book’s plot is about the love interactions and daily sweet moments between the hero and heroine, the sweetness between them is a knife that pierces Yoruba’s heart.

In the end, a large-scale war with the heroine as the fuse was staged. Both sides settled new and old grudges and fought fiercely!

Inigo held a grudge against Areli for defeating him in a round and then severely injuring him, and even after Areli died, he did not forget the grudge and instead held it against Yoruba.

The son must pay for his father's debts, and he wanted to put the Yoruba to death.

The Yoruba also hated Inigo. The hatred of his parents being killed in his childhood and the hatred of his wife being taken away at this time made the young emperor attack with all his might.

At this point in the plot, the two sides should have fought to the death.

However, Inigo always likes to play dirty tricks, using the heroine's father, Duke Ethan, and a group of prominent nobles to backstab Yoruba in order to win.

These nobles who turned against the emperor were the ones whom Meloeus had recently sent his trusted followers to conduct an in-depth investigation on.

He suspected that these nobles were Inigo's accomplices.

Moreover, although it has been found out that the death of the late emperor was caused by Duke Ethan, the fact that the Crown Princess was kidnapped from the planet Navicus is still unclear.

This wave of rebellious officials is highly suspected of committing crimes.

Otherwise, why would the Crown Princess, who lived in a heavily guarded palace, be captured?

This matter has yet to be further investigated, but the nobles in the original book did betray the Yoruba people.

At that time, Yoruba ascended the throne at a young age, and there was no such thing as Meloeus succeeding to the throne. It was only because Tarasha arrived late and did not bring back a living eldest son.

Just after Areli was killed in battle, Meloeus, who was far away on the planet Navekos, was also assassinated and died in the tavern he often visited.

After the death of her husband and youngest son, Tarasha lost her eldest son, leaving only her five-year-old grandson. She could only support her grandson to succeed to the throne.

So the five-year-old Yoruba became the new emperor.

Tarasha helped her grandson to secure the throne, stabilize the empire, and preserve the foundation of the Stiaan Empire, but she did not expect that it would be destroyed by the heroine.

The Duke's daughter, who was about to marry into the royal family, ran away from her marriage secretly, fell in love with the federal head Inigo, and helped the federal government attack the empire.

The drama made Tarasha furious.

The royal family was kind to Duke Ethan, but his daughter turned against the empire.

This woman is not worthy of being the Queen of the Styrian Empire!

Tarasa decided to cancel the engagement and imprisoned Duke Ethan for improper godfathering.

Not long after, the Federation and the Empire went to war.

Duke Ethan in prison joined forces with many nobles to seize the planet Navikos, cut off Yoruba's retreat, and tied Tarasha to the front line.

Inigo then used Tarasha's order to force the Yoruba who faced the same choice as his father to surrender.

His purpose in repeating the same old trick was not to force the Yoruba to surrender, but to make Tarasha's death the last straw that broke the camel's back for the Yoruba.

And his ruse was indeed successful.

Tarasha eventually followed in the footsteps of her daughter-in-law and committed suicide on the battlefield because she couldn't bear to see her grandson in trouble.

The death of his grandmother drove Yoruba completely crazy. The young emperor sent troops to attack the planets under the jurisdiction of the federal government like a mad dog.

Inigo stood on the side of justice to fight against the Styrian Empire army, turning himself from the perpetrator to the victim.

He harmed three generations of the imperial family, from the late emperor to the crown prince and princess, the eldest son, to the queen mother Tarasha and Yoruba, who was the emperor at the time.

If it weren't for him, the royal family of the Styian Empire and even the people of the empire would not have fallen into chaos.

But he turned around and blamed the empire for heavy taxes and extortion, arbitrarily launching wars, disturbing the peace of the federation, and directing the conflict towards the Yoruba.

He became the winner of this battle and the biggest beneficiary of this tug-of-war.

From the late emperor to Crown Prince Areli and then to Yoruba, nearly fifty years of planning allowed him to completely conquer the Stiaan Empire that he had always coveted.

However, conquering the Styian Empire was only the first step in Inigo's plan. Next, he moved on to the other six empires.

After many twists and turns, all seven empires were destroyed.

The federal government headed by Inigo became the only supreme government in the world.

But Meloeus had no intention of letting this scheming federal leader succeed again.

Historical development has its own laws, so why should Inigo interfere?

Even if the empire is to be replaced by a federation, it should not be at this moment. The current seven empires are born out of necessity and meet current social needs.

A divide-and-rule federation is an anachronism.

The empire in the era of great unification was timely.

Meloeus had read the ending of the original book. Under the peaceful federal government, there were undercurrents. Once Inigo died, chaos would break out and the whole world would be engulfed in war.

The best outcome is that a wise ruler will end the chaos and re-establish a new regime.

The worst outcome is endless war, and this world is completely destroyed in endless flames of war.

No matter what the result is, it will be extremely tragic, and there will be countless deaths and injuries.

Meloeus would naturally not allow such a tragedy to happen.

Changing course needs to be a natural process and requires the younger generation to carry on the will of the older generation, otherwise greater disasters will surely occur in the future.

Behavior like Inigo's, which destroyed the seven empires and promoted the inappropriate federal regime to the top just for personal ambitions, will sooner or later bring disaster to countless innocent people.

If it is serious, the world may be destroyed.

Meloeus had encountered this situation before when he was doing missions in the No CP Division.

Therefore, he would not let Inigo succeed.
