Just as Yun Muheng's handsome face suddenly became gloomy, as if a storm was about to come, and he was about to express his dissatisfaction.

The emperor sitting on the dragon throne spoke first again: "However, the person I pass the throne to is my own son, and you can also pass the throne to your son!"

Hearing this, Yun Muheng, who had originally had a gloomy face, suddenly had a flash of light in his eyes as deep as a pool of water, just like a candle being lit in the darkness.

Then, his thin lips curled up slightly, revealing a calculating smile.

He bowed respectfully to the emperor, and said in a humble but pointed tone, "Since this is the case, I implore you, father, to give up the throne as soon as possible."

Faced with Yun Muheng's straightforward and urgent request, the emperor was stunned at first, then shook his head helplessly, smiled bitterly, stretched out his hand, gently tapped Yun Muheng with his index finger, and scolded: "You stinky boy!"

At the same time, Ye Xiaotuan, who was far away in the palace, was holding a long sword and dancing with a nimble posture.

Each sword was filled with sharp energy, and as the cold light flashed, the surrounding leaves fell one after another.

However, just as he was concentrating on practicing sword skills, he suddenly sneezed loudly without any warning.

"A-choo! This is really weird. I don't have a cold, so why am I sneezing for no reason? Is someone talking behind my back?"

Ye Xiaotuan rubbed his nose and muttered to himself.

At that moment, inside the palace, a panicked eunuch trotted into the imperial study and knelt hurriedly to report, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The Empress...she has committed suicide!"

It turned out that during the time when Yun Muheng and others went to Muyang County to handle affairs, a shocking event occurred in the court.

As the prime minister, he attempted to murder the crown prince Ouyang Zhi from the Eastern Liao Kingdom. After the plot was exposed, the emperor was furious. Not only did he immediately order the prime minister to be dismissed from his post, he also ruthlessly demoted his entire family to commoners and sentenced them to a heavy punishment of exile three thousand miles away.

However, Ye Xinrou felt resentful and unwilling about this.

So, she used some unknown things that had happened in the princess's mansion before as a threat to force Yun Mushu and the eldest princess to submit.

In the end, out of desperation, Yun Mushu had to take Ye Xinrou as his concubine.

However, the good times did not last long. Just a few days later, a grand royal banquet was in full swing.

And at this banquet, Ye Xinrou, who had been so graceful, suddenly fainted on the ground without any warning.

This sudden change instantly attracted the attention of everyone present, and for a moment the entire banquet hall fell into chaos and astonishment.

Soon, the imperial doctors rushed over. After an intense and meticulous diagnosis and treatment, an astonishing news spread throughout the venue - Ye Xinrou was actually pregnant!

When this news came out, it was like a blockbuster bomb dropped into a lake, causing a huge wave.

Everyone was stunned at first, and then rushed towards Yun Mushu like a tide, congratulating him one after another, their words full of envy and congratulations.

At this moment, Yun Mushu's face was as pale as the sky covered with dark clouds. His eyes were fixed on Ye Xinrou who had just woken up. His eyes seemed to be spewing fire, just like the depressing and terrifying atmosphere before a storm.

Facing the congratulations from the people around him, he said nothing, but just clenched his teeth, emitting a chilling aura.

When Ye Xinrou heard the news of her pregnancy, a flash of panic that was hard to conceal flashed in her eyes.

But then, as if she realized something, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

At this moment, she was thinking rapidly in her heart: This child might be the guarantee for her to enjoy wealth and prosperity for the rest of her life!

Thinking of this, she calmed herself down, slowly stood up, and walked towards Yun Mushu with light steps.

When she got closer, Ye Xinrou raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gentle smile, and said softly, "Thank you all for your good wishes. I believe His Majesty is so ecstatic that he is a little stunned for a moment."

After saying this, she looked at Yun Mushu lovingly.

Unexpectedly, Yun Mushu did not appreciate her pretense at all, and a trace of deep disgust suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Then, he raised his hand without hesitation and slapped Ye Xinrou's delicate cheek hard.

There was only a crisp "slap" sound, and the crisp slapping sound was particularly harsh in the silent banquet.

After the slap, Yun Mushu roared in anger: "You shameless bitch, get away from me!"

His gaze was as sharp as a knife, piercing straight into Ye Xinrou's still flat belly, and the anger in his heart was surging like a surging river.

He could never have imagined that the woman in front of him would dare to make him acknowledge this bastard of unknown origin. It was really a pipe dream!

Thinking of this, a hint of ruthlessness flashed across Yun Mushu's hideous and twisted face. He raised his foot without any hesitation and kicked Ye Xinrou's soft and boneless abdomen with all his strength!

In an instant, a dull crash resounded throughout the room.

Then, a stream of scarlet blood suddenly spurted out of Ye Xinrou's mouth, splashing onto her snow-white dress like a blooming blood flower, instantly staining a large area red. The bright and dazzling blood and white contrasted with each other, forming a strange and poignant scene.

As time went by, the blood in Ye Xinrou's body continued to flow out from her lower body, and soon the ground beneath her was soaked into a sea of ​​blood.

Finally, due to excessive blood loss, Ye Xinrou's originally fragile body slowly collapsed, and there was no movement anymore...

At this moment, an even more shocking thing was revealed - it turned out that Yun Mushu and two other beggars had inhumanely defiled Ye Xinrou!

This news was like a bolt from the blue, quickly spreading to every corner of the capital and causing an uproar.

When the emperor heard about this, he, who was always known for his kindness, was furious! He could never have imagined that such a cruel and brutal incident would happen in the capital under his rule.

In a rage, the emperor ordered Yun Mushu to be demoted to a commoner and ordered that he would never set foot in the capital for the rest of his life!

At the same time, the queen, Yun Mushu's mother, was also implicated and was ruthlessly sent to the cold palace.

Faced with such a sudden change, the eldest princess resolutely decided to hand over all her properties, including fertile land, houses, shops, etc., to the court.

Perhaps it was God's blessing, or the emperor's consideration of their old friendship, but in any case, the eldest princess finally succeeded in maintaining her position.

However, although she still retained the title of the eldest princess, after this incident, she had long lost her former charm and became eclipsed.

Upon hearing this news, the emperor was slightly startled at first, then he sighed softly and said slowly: "Find a suitable place to bury her. There is no need to make this matter public."

After saying this, he waved his hand to signal the eunuch to leave.

In this way, the once glorious queen ended her tragic life in loneliness and desolation...

A few days passed quickly, and the almighty emperor of Yunxi Kingdom suddenly announced his abdication without any warning!

This news was like a thunderclap, spreading throughout the capital and even the whole country in an instant.

The emperor passed the throne to the current crown prince Yun Muheng.

On the day Yun Muheng ascended the throne in great glory, he immediately issued another imperial decree: to appoint Yun Jingming (also known as Ye Xiaotuan) as the new crown prince.

When this news came out, the government and the public were shocked.

Just five days later, Yun Muheng made another surprising move. He abdicated the throne to Crown Prince Yun Jingming without hesitation and began to prepare for the grand coronation ceremony.
