Douluo: Join Tang San, and I will accept Xiao Wu!

Chapter 112: Get on the Car and Draw the Sword
Tiandou Empire, above the Golden Palace.

Emperor Xue Ye sits high on the throne.

Ministers and nobles stood on both sides.

Master and disciple Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi stood at the forefront of a group of ministers and nobles.

Today's morning meeting seems a little different.

Xue Qinghe waved his hand gently backwards.

Among the ministers behind him, one was the first to stand up.

Emperor Xue Ye’s pupils shrank.

This person is the Chancellor of Finance in the Empire, in charge of imperial taxation and financial appropriations.

Before, this man, like Ge Long, was his confidant, but now, it was obvious that his confidant had turned to the prince.

This is not surprising, as anyone with a discerning eye can see that Emperor Xue Ye is declining.

It is a very normal choice to seek a way out as soon as possible.

The Minister of Finance stepped forward and said loudly:
“Your Majesty, we have discussed the matter of the princess for a long time, and I think it is time to make a decision.

As everyone knows, Ning Rongrong, the legitimate daughter of Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe grew up together and have a deep relationship, like brother and sister. Moreover, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has been the pillar of our Tiandou Empire for generations and has made great contributions to the empire!

I think that we should strengthen the relationship with the Seven Treasures Glazed Clan, let His Royal Highness the Crown Prince recognize Miss Ning Rongrong as his sister, and enthrone Miss Ning Rongrong as the Imperial Princess!"

After the Finance Minister finished speaking, he bowed deeply.

Behind the Finance Minister, more than 70% of the officials stood up at once, bowed with the Finance Minister, and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, I ask you to appoint Miss Ning Rongrong as the Imperial Princess, and strengthen her relationship with the Seven Treasures Glazed Clan!"

The sound surrounded the golden palace.

For a long time.

Emperor Xue Ye looked at the scene in front of him angrily, clenched his fists tightly, and his lips trembled with anger.

But he had no choice.

Emperor Xue Ye is trying very hard to save the situation.

He had two cards in his hand before.

One is a thousand guards from the palace. This army is his last strength. All the soldiers in the army are soul masters, and the officers are all high-level soul masters above three rings.

The other is the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

Only with the financial power of the empire could he ensure his rule over his subordinates.

If the Chancellor of the Exchequer had not turned against the Crown Prince, he could have continued to delay.

With financial stability in the army, there will basically be no chaos in the army.

He could slowly wait for the opportunity, until he could arrange for his own people to become the new imperial marshal, fill the vacancy left by Goron, and regain control of his army.

However, all this came to naught after the Chancellor of the Exchequer defected.

He had two trump cards in his hand, but now only one was left.

At this time, Emperor Xue Ye was both angry and frightened.

A pair of eyes stared at Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi, as if they wanted to bite them.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Emperor Xue Ye in front of him with a relaxed smile.

He knew that the former emperor before him was no longer a threat.

Ning Fengzhi thought about how Ning Rongrong had mentioned to him that Emperor Xue Ye had humiliated Meng Bei after Ning Rongrong and Meng Bei came back from the palace.

To humiliate his son-in-law would be tantamount to humiliating himself and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi put away the smile on his face, and walked up step by step, approaching the front of Emperor Xue Ye. Emperor Xue Ye thought that Ning Fengzhi was going to kill him in public, and was frightened and panicked. He hurriedly looked around to see if Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were nearby. Because of his big movements, he almost fell off the golden chair.

Fortunately, Ning Fengzhi grabbed Emperor Xue Ye by the collar, thus preventing the elderly emperor from making a fool of himself on the spot.

However, after grabbing Emperor Xue Ye, Ning Fengzhi did not let go directly, but threatened him in a stern voice:
"Your Majesty, my Seven Treasures Glazed Clan has made great contributions to the empire for generations. It is not inappropriate for you to make my daughter a princess. Your Majesty has repeatedly declined. Today, please explain the reason in front of all the gentlemen. Let us listen to your Majesty's reasons!"

This was the first time in the history of the Tiandou Empire that someone grabbed the emperor's clothes and demanded the reason for not conferring a title.

Emperor Xue Ye was angry and afraid. For a moment, he could not find a suitable reason. The ministers below were watching him covetously. Those who could remain neutral were considered loyal ministers. No one dared to stand up and support him directly.

Yes, it did in the past.

Goron was one, but Goron is dead.

Goron's loyal subordinates were also counted, but they died too.

Prince Xuexing could barely be considered as such, but he was deposed.

No one can speak for Emperor Xue Ye now.

"I agree...I agree!"

Emperor Xue Ye had no choice but to compromise.

That night, after Emperor Xue Ye returned to the palace, he summoned the three leaders of the palace guards.

These three leaders are all the confidants of Emperor Xue Ye. Two of them are Soul Douluo, named Zhang Wei and Song Lie, who are capable generals promoted by Emperor Xue Ye.

The other one is a Soul Saint, named Xuefeng, and is a relative of the royal family.

Emperor Xue Ye secretly called them to his side and said angrily:
"Everyone knows what Ning Fengzhi is thinking. He has gone too far in bullying me!"

"I am the Emperor of Tiandou. He dared to grab my collar and teach me a lesson like a servant. How can I endure such humiliation!"

"I have made up my mind. Please help me and go and fight the enemy!"

After saying this, Emperor Xue Ye actually picked up the armor and sword beside him and put them on.

Zhang Wei was shocked when he saw this and hurriedly stopped him:
"Your Majesty, you can't do that. You can't do that. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has been entrenched for a long time and is very powerful. Your Majesty has few soldiers and generals. If you don't endure, disaster will surely befall you. Your Majesty, you must not be reckless!"

Song Lie nodded repeatedly to Zhang Wei's words and advised:
"Yes, Your Majesty, we must take a long-term view!"

After hearing this, Emperor Xue Ye said angrily:

"I can't stand this, I have made up my mind, why should I fear death!"

"Besides, this trip is not to assassinate Ning Fengzhi, but to kill my rebellious son Xue Qinghe. As long as this rebellious son is gone, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect will be unjustified if it wants to interfere in politics again, and we will have a chance to breathe!"

Seeing this, Song Lie and Zhang Wei wanted to stop him again.

But Emperor Xue Ye no longer gave them a chance.

"No need to say more. You should quickly go and gather your troops and surround the prince's residence overnight. I will personally lead the team and kill the prince."

Xuefeng has always followed the lead of Emperor Xueye.

This time, he chose to gather his subordinates without hesitation.

Song Lie and Zhang Wei had no choice but to obey the order.

However, after the two came out of Emperor Xue Ye's bedroom, they hurriedly discussed countermeasures together.

Song Lie said:
"Brother Zhang, what should we do? If we really follow His Majesty to assassinate the Crown Prince, whether we succeed or not, I'm afraid that you and I will both be retaliated by the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect afterwards. The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has three Douluo masters. If we provoke them, I'm afraid we will be wiped out!"

Zhang Wei said:
"At this point, the only way to save your life is to surrender yourself to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect."

Song Wei's eyes lit up and he said:
"Brother Zhang is absolutely right!"

After the two made up their minds, they fled the palace overnight and went to the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect to report the news.
