The protagonist of this crossover film and television series is disrupting the plot again.

Chapter 431 The Young Singer's Journey 100

Nangong Chunping was beaten up for no reason, and a feeling of grievance welled up in his heart: "You injured two of my disciples, and I haven't even held it against you. Now you actually hit me?"

"Humph!"

Xiao Yu snorted coldly: "Like father, like son. You have taught such an incompetent disciple, yet you still have the nerve to come and argue with me?"

Nangong Chunshui choked, yet she was helpless against Xiao Yu.

Moreover, Xiao Yu's power is now firmly established, he has won the hearts of the people, and his cultivation is the best in the world. Even if he is unwilling, he has no other choice.

Xiao Yu, in a good mood, straightened his clothes and ruthlessly banished Nangong Chunshui back to the Northern Territory.

The prohibition that Li Changsheng failed to obey in his previous life has fallen on Nangong Chunshui in this life.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Advisor has arrived."

Seeing that Xiao Yu had finished dealing with the matter at hand, Long Xie stepped forward to report.

"The Imperial Advisor?"

Xiao Yu turned around and happened to see Qi Tianchen behind Long Xie.

Last time, Qi Tianchen used the Dragon-Seeking Formation to reach the border, and after returning, he reported the events that occurred at the border to Emperor Mingde in detail.

After learning that Xiao Yu had successfully eliminated all the "immortals," Emperor Mingde sat alone in Pingqing Palace for two days before finally accepting the reality.

Now, Xiao Yu's path forward is unstoppable, and no matter how much Emperor Mingde values ​​Xiao Se, he has reached a point where he has no other choice.

His intention in sending Qi Tianchen to meet with Xiao Yu this time was quite clear.

The destruction of Nan Jue is imminent, and Xiao Yu will soon lead his army back in triumph.

Before that, both parties naturally need to discuss and agree on future matters in advance.

Otherwise, if any oversight occurs in the arrangements, given Xiao Yu's current soaring reputation, even if he himself doesn't care, the world's gossip will still target Emperor Mingde and the court.

"Your Highness..."

Xiao Yu waved his hand to interrupt Qi Tianchen, saying, "I don't want to waste any more words. When you return, please tell His Majesty that I have three requests."

"First, immediately exonerate the Prince of Langya and completely clear him of the injustice and stigma."

"Secondly, Your Majesty must issue an edict of self-reproach to demonstrate repentance."

"Third, begin arranging matters related to abdication as soon as possible."

With each statement Xiao Yu made, Qi Tianchen's face paled a little more.

It was somewhat reasonable to exonerate Xiao Ruofeng, but the subsequent demands for Emperor Mingde to issue an edict of self-reproach and abdicate were simply an insult to Emperor Mingde's dignity.

Xiao Yu originally intended to take things one step at a time and proceed steadily throughout his life.

As a result of Wu Qinghuan's unorthodox actions, his plans were completely disrupted, and now he had no need to hide anything any longer.

Instead of doing that, why not just go back and ascend the throne as emperor?

Anyway, at this point, no one will stop us anymore.

Qi Tianchen hurriedly returned to Tianqi City and relayed Xiao Yu's request to Emperor Mingde without missing a single word.

Emperor Mingde's reaction to these demands was somewhat unexpected, and he did not fly into a rage as Qi Tianchen had imagined.

In fact, Emperor Mingde had already anticipated Xiao Yu's request long before he sent Qi Tianchen to the border.

However, what he didn't expect was that Xiao Yu would prioritize exonerating Xiao Ruofeng.

Indeed, overturning Xiao Ruofeng's case was also Emperor Mingde's wish.

However, he was still somewhat puzzled, as Xiao Ruofeng and Xiao Yu did not have a deep relationship before.

Why would Xiao Yu want to clear Xiao Ruofeng's name?

However, despite his confusion, Emperor Mingde had no time to dwell on the situation.

He once intended for Xiao Se to inherit his throne, but now the situation has changed, and Xiao Yu, the whetstone, has made a strong comeback.

Now, Xiao Yu enjoys popular support, holds military power, has made outstanding achievements, and possesses profound cultivation.

With such an outstanding prince in existence, the choice of the throne has already been settled, and no one else can compete with him.

Even if he insists on passing the throne to Xiao Se, it will only harm this son.

As for the Northern Li's attack on the Southern Jue, although it seemed to go smoothly on the surface because of Xiao Yu's presence, the amount of grain and silver consumed behind the scenes was an astonishing astronomical figure.

If he were to disagree with Xiao Yu on the issue of the throne, causing turmoil within Beili, then in the end, it would only be the innocent people who would suffer.

Twelve years ago, Ye Dingzhi led the Demonic Sect on an eastern expedition, plunging the people of Beili into misery. After several years of hardship, the people finally began to live a more peaceful life.

If he were to cause further trouble due to internal strife within the royal family, Xiao Ruojin would truly become a sinner in the eyes of the world.

Emperor Mingde sat in the Pingqing Hall for two more days, and then issued three imperial edicts.

The first imperial edict officially declared that the so-called treason case of the Prince of Langya was actually a miscarriage of justice meticulously planned by the former Grand Eunuch Zhuoxin in collusion with the Seal Supervisor Jinyan and the Sword Supervisor Jinwei.

Now, Langya Prince Xiao Ruofeng has been exonerated and his title has been restored. His rank has been enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, where he will enjoy royal sacrificial rites.

The second imperial edict was a self-reproach edict personally issued by Emperor Mingde, in which he admitted to misjudging the case of the Prince of Langya and issued this edict to recount his mistakes.

The third imperial edict directly announced the abdication of the throne to Xiao Yu, with the emperor himself stepping down as the Retired Emperor. He would then immediately ascend the throne upon Xiao Yu's return to Tianqi City.

These three imperial edicts caused a great uproar throughout the land.

Now the White King has completely given up on the idea of ​​taking the throne and has begun to plan how to protect himself to the greatest extent possible.

Xiao Jingxia, on the other hand, was filled with remorse and regret.

She regretted not going with Xiao Yu when he went on his expedition, thus missing the chance to witness her idol's moment of glory.

This deep regret and remorse made Xiao Jingxia unable to hold back any longer, and she burst into tears right in front of Xiao Chong.

When Xiao Chong heard Xiao Jingxia crying, he mistakenly thought that Xiao Jingxia was sad for him, and he immediately felt bad.

He had meticulously planned for so many years, but ultimately failed to ascend the throne. This immense sense of defeat was too much for him to bear, even for someone as calm and resilient as him.

But he still tried his best to calm himself down and comfort Xiao Jingxia: "Brother, don't cry. The scourge of the 'immortals' has existed since ancient times. Now, Xiao Yu is able to fight his way up to the heavens and rid the world of this great scourge. This is a blessing for everyone in the world."

At this point, Xiao Chong paused slightly, took a deep breath, and continued, "...I sincerely admire Xiao Yu for becoming emperor."

"Ok?"

Xiao Jingxia, her eyes blurry with tears, looked up at Xiao Chong, thinking to herself, 'Could it be that my second brother already knows I'm the seventh brother's man, and is deliberately bringing up the seventh brother's heroic deeds to frame me?'

However, Xiao Chong's sincere and genuine tone made Xiao Jingxia realize that Xiao Chong was truly trying to comfort her.

Unable to vent her emotions, Xiao Jingxia suddenly sat down on the ground and burst into even louder sobs.
