In order to save himself, the prince summoned 100,000 dragon riders at the start.

"Never mind, since it was the Empress herself who issued the decree, I'd better go and take a look quickly."

Despite his doubts, Lu Yuan forcibly suppressed his restless feelings.

The father is missing, and the mother died long ago due to complications during childbirth.

Now, in the vast Zhenbei Prince's Mansion, only he can make a public appearance.

resignedly.

Lu Yuan had no choice but to give up the delicious food in front of him.

He gently stroked the exquisite bridge of the beautiful woman's nose, and said:

"I'll go attend to my business first, and deal with you later!"

"Hehe... I'll be waiting!"

However, what Lu Yuan didn't notice was...

When he mentioned the word "Empress".

A strange light seemed to flash in the woman's eyes.

.....

At this moment, the gates of the Prince of Zhenbei's mansion were wide open.

On both sides of the gate, hundreds of soldiers in full armor and armed with weapons stood solemnly.

These soldiers wore menacing iron masks and exuded a strong aura of menace.

At first glance, they are truly battle-hardened elites who have fought their way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood!

In front of these soldiers.

The leader was an old eunuch.

Upon seeing Lu Yuan emerge, a sinister smile immediately spread across the old eunuch's face.

Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat.

Made.

There's something off about the old eunuch's smile!

Legend has it that these rootless people all seem to have some inexplicable hobbies.

It can not be!

"The imperial edict has arrived!"

The old eunuch's hoarse voice shattered Lu Yuan's reverie.

Upon seeing the old eunuch unfold the imperial edict with the yellow dragon in his hand, Lu Yuan wisely knelt down immediately.

"Your subject, Lu Yuan, receives the imperial decree!"

Lu Yuan's attitude was undeniably respectful.

Do as the locals do.

After all, he lived in a country where imperial power was supreme!

I'm a useless piece of trash, with no real strength. I should just obediently follow the rules of this place!

"hehe..."

Seeing Lu Yuan kneel down with his head down, the old eunuch gave a cold, unseen smile, full of mockery.

Fairly discerning.

But what's the use?

They still can't escape their fate!

She glanced at Lu Yuan.

The old eunuch then slowly opened the imperial edict in his hand and began to read it aloud in a hoarse voice:

By imperial decree:

Lu Yuan, the Prince of Zhenbei, is eccentric and oppressive, and his virtue does not match his position!

I hereby reclaim military power in the northern region!

Furthermore, in order to appease the people and show compassion for their sentiments, a cup of poisoned wine shall be given immediately!

Admire this! "

Rumble!

now.

The old eunuch's shrill, hoarse voice sounded like a thunderclap to Lu Yuan!

"What?! A death sentence?!"

Lu Yuan was stunned and speechless, completely dumbfounded.

I've only just transmigrated...

They were perfectly fine just a second ago, how could they suddenly be sentenced to death!

This news came so suddenly!

"Your Excellency! This imperial edict...is it a mistake?!"

"Why would Her Majesty the Empress order my execution for such a trivial matter?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but loudly question the old eunuch.

To Lu Yuan, the reason for this execution was utterly ridiculous!

Exploiting the people?

That's right.

His predecessor was indeed not a human being and did some things to oppress the people.

But don't forget.

This is a fantasy world where the strong prey on the weak!

Human life is like grass!

The weak are the ones who are oppressed!

Previously, a demonic cultivator sacrificed a million lives from an entire city to create a weapon!

Yet no one has been held accountable!

Why?

The strong shall prevail!

In the end, this demonic cultivator was even recruited by the Great Zhou royal family to become a royal retainer!

They tacitly allow him to enjoy the bounty of the people of the Great Zhou and to slaughter civilians at will to cultivate demonic arts!

Is it ridiculous?

Not funny at all!

Because the law of the jungle is the rule of this world!

just now.

He himself was a direct descendant of a noble family.

It was merely oppressing the people, not massacring the entire city.

Compared to demonic cultivators, they can practically be called kind!

However, the final result was that he was directly sentenced to death?

It’s really unbelievable!

"No... something's fishy here!"

"It must be that empress who wants to get rid of me! She wants to take the opportunity to regain control of the Northern Region!"

Lu Yuan wasn't stupid.

A thought quickly made him realize the reason!

It must be because of his status as the Prince of Zhenbei!

Although the actual control of the Northern Region has secretly been handed over to the Empress.

But in name only, he is still the Lord of the Northern Region!

For the Empress, many things were inconvenient and difficult to do.

It would be easier to just get rid of this "stumbling block" directly!

Forcibly erasing him or establishing him as a puppet are both unfeasible options.

After all, if we did that...

What should other vassal kings with their own territories think?

therefore.

He just found some trivial reason to condemn himself to death!

"I'm still too weak!"

Lu Yuan thought sadly.

Upon hearing Lu Yuan's rebuttal, a cold glint flashed in the eunuch's eyes!

There was a bang.

The old eunuch, exuding a violent aura, directly pressed down on Lu Yuanwei!

"How dare you, Lu Yuan! Are you questioning Her Majesty the Empress's decisions?!"

"How dare a mere good-for-nothing who cannot cultivate question Her Majesty the Empress?!"

As an ordinary person who cannot cultivate.

Lu Yuan was immediately overwhelmed by the old eunuch's terrifying aura and forced to the ground!

His bones creaked under the pressure, and a look of pain appeared on Lu Yuan's face.

Looking at Lu Yuan, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, the old eunuch's eyes were full of contempt.

He's just a useless person who can't cultivate.

In this world, they are even worse off than ordinary people!

As soon as the imperial edict came out.

Lu Yuan was no longer the high and mighty king he once was.

He can bully me at will!

If the Empress hadn't already issued an edict ordering him to be poisoned to death...

He just casually crushed it to death!

The old eunuch, with an arrogant air, slowly and sneered at Lu Yuan:

"A ruler's command cannot be disobeyed! If the ruler commands the subject to die, the subject has no choice but to die!"

"Your Highness, you should just accept your fate."

After speaking, the old eunuch casually waved his hand, and a fine bronze wine vessel was brought over by a young eunuch.

"Feed Prince Lu some wine!"

"Yes!"

Hearing the old eunuch's aggressive words.

Finally, Lu Yuan couldn't hold back any longer and exploded!

"Heh... well, what a convenient excuse for having to die!"

With a desperate, cold laugh, Lu Yuan, enduring immense pressure, suddenly stood up from the ground!

Deceiving too much!

Kneel down, you son of a bitch!

You want me dead, how can I still respect you?

Is the Empress rumored to be wise?

shit!

"Zhou Linglong is really ruthless!"

"My father, Lu Qingtian, has been loyal to the state for many years, serving the Zhou dynasty with unwavering dedication and hard work."

"Now, in order to reclaim power in the Northern Region, the Empress has actually turned around and ordered his son to be put to death?"

"That Zhou emperor is truly ruthless! Indeed, the most poisonous heart is that of a woman!"

Lu Yuan pointed at the old eunuch's nose and angrily cursed, directly exposing Zhou Linglong's hypocrisy!

Lu Qingtian was naturally the father of the previous incarnation, and also the Prince of Zhenbei.

in memory.

As the invincible war god of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Lu Qingtian was always loyal and devoted, serving the Great Zhou in every way to conquer its vast territory.

After that, they even voluntarily stationed themselves in the northern region, where they held sway over the northern barbarians for decades!

just now.

He went missing in battle while protecting the Great Zhou Dynasty, and his remains were never found!

The soil of the cenotaph is still wet, yet the descendants are being given poisoned wine.

This is so disheartening!

Upon hearing that Lu Yuan dared to publicly criticize the current Empress, the old eunuch's expression suddenly changed.

His eyes practically blazed with a chilling light!

"Hmph! You're courting death! How can Her Majesty the Empress tolerate such reckless criticism! Anyone who dares to criticize Her Majesty deserves death!"

"Guards! Seize Lu Yuan and force him to drink!"

"promise!"

Behind the old eunuch, a group of armored soldiers immediately stepped forward with murderous intent, ready to punish Lu Yuan on the spot!

"Damn it! This is so frustrating!"

Lu Yuan looked up at the sky and roared in grief and indignation.

I just transmigrated, but I'm about to die.

Having won a time-travel experience card, I could practically be considered the most miserable time traveler ever!
