C2572 Step down

3The officials were panicking, they never thought this would happen.    

    

It was obvious that the situation was disadvantageous to Old Emperor and His Royal Highness the First Prince. The army of Money Yuan Kingdom had already entered the city, even in the imperial palace. They could vaguely hear the sounds of fighting. Apparently, they were about to reach the Imperial Palace. Once the army of Money Yuan Kingdom arrived, Old Emperor and First Prince would certainly die. These ministers would also face the same choice.    

    

To choose to support Old Emperor and First Prince, or Second Prince, this was indeed a problem for these ministers.    

    

Originally, Old Emperor had wanted to pass the throne to First Prince, so he had made some arrangements. These officials also knew what Old Emperor was thinking, and Second Prince didn't have much ability. Therefore, these officials had all supported First Prince to ascend the throne.    

    

But now, Second Prince had suddenly connected with Money Yuan Kingdom. He had also obtained the support of Money Yuan Kingdom. Furthermore, after seeing that he was unable to become the Emperor peacefully, he had even forced the army of the Money Yuan Kingdom to fight their way in and forcefully ascend the throne. This had given Second Prince a huge advantage in an instant.    

    

After all, the army of Money Yuan Kingdom was stronger than the army of Yuan Feng Country. Although the army of Yuan Feng Country had already been assembled, it was even possible that the army of Money Yuan Kingdom had already joined forces with the army of Money Yuan Kingdom. However... In terms of strength, they were at a disadvantage, let alone... There were still many other powers outside the city who were eyeing them covetously. They had seen the weakness of the Yuan Feng Country. Who could guarantee that they wouldn't choose to interfere?    

    

Therefore, the Yuan Feng Country was now in great danger. To be precise, Old Emperor and First Prince were in great danger. Once the army arrived at the main hall, their lives would be in danger. At that time... Not to mention becoming the Emperor, it was hard to say if he could even keep his own life.    

    

Once these ministers chose to support First Prince, they would very likely face the same huge danger as First Prince.    

    

However, many people did not like Second Prince's character. Otherwise, Second Prince would not have been active for such a long time. The support they received was very little. However, they didn't dare to say anything to Second Prince. The soldiers in the hall weren't just decorations.    

    

"How is it? My dear father, can you pass the throne to me now?" Second Prince looked at the panicked ministers and said to his own father proudly.    

    

In his point of view, everything was under his control. Everything had gone smoothly. With the support of the Money Yuan Kingdom's army, no matter what kind of attitude father had, the outcome would not change.    

    

"Don't even think about it!" Old Emperor said angrily.    

    

He had never thought that his useless second son would dare to do such a thing. He actually dared to ally with outsiders to attack his own country. There was a saying that it was easy to invite a god, but difficult to send a god. The people of Money Yuan Kingdom originally had wild ambitions towards Yuan Feng Country, but now... This foolish son of mine actually gave the other party a chance to enter his own country. Could it be that he thought that the people of Money Yuan Kingdom were so easy to deal with?    

    

Now that the people of Money Yuan Kingdom had entered the city, he wanted them to leave. It wouldn't be that easy anymore. Although... The war with the Fengjue Country was about to begin, including several countries in Money Yuan Kingdom. All of them would send their troops to the Fengjue Country, but the Money Yuan Kingdom would definitely leave their men in the Yuan Feng Country. Once the Money Yuan Kingdom defeated the Fengjue Country, the next country that would be conquered would be... It would definitely be the Yuan Feng Country.    

    

It was a pity that his ignorant son still treated the people of the Money Yuan Kingdom as his friends. At that time, he would definitely be eaten until not even his bones were left. If he had known that his son would do such a stupid thing, he would have killed him last night. He would not have been confined.    

    

Unfortunately, it was too late now. The people of Money Yuan Kingdom had already entered the city. Although there were many guards in the city, Old Emperor knew that those people were absolutely no match for the army of Money Yuan Kingdom.    

    

It was only a matter of time before they were defeated.    

    

Old Emperor wasn't afraid of death. He was already so old. Furthermore, his body wasn't in a good condition. He wouldn't be able to live for long. However, he didn't want to see the Yuan Feng Country destroyed by his hands. If that was the case, he would be letting down his ancestors.    

    

"Then let's wait for the army of Money Yuan Kingdom to arrive." Second Prince said.    

    

Although he had also bribed some palace guards, however, he could not bribe all of them. There were still many people who supported Old Emperor. Therefore, if he acted rashly now, those guards who supported him might not win. Defend, protect him and the despotic general from harm. There was no problem.    

    

Therefore, Second Prince didn't act rashly. Instead, he chose to wait for the army of Money Yuan Kingdom to arrive here. In any case, it wouldn't delay much during this period of time.    

    

As for the despotic general, he was even less anxious. His thoughts were similar to Second Prince's. Both of them felt that this Yuan Feng Country was already theirs. They just needed to wait a little longer and wait for the army outside to arrive. Then, everything would be settled. At that time, he would be in control of the entire Yuan Feng Country. As for Second Prince, he was just a puppet. Furthermore... Once he defeated the Fengjue Country... * Hong Long...... *    

    

Old Emperor knew that the current situation was very dangerous. It didn't matter if he died. He couldn't let Yuan Feng Country be destroyed just like that. His second son clearly didn't understand this point. In that case, he could only place his hopes on his eldest son. As long as First Prince escaped, the hope would still be there. In the future, First Prince could gather his subordinates and restore his country.    

    

Thinking of this, Old Emperor said to the crowd, "Zhen declares that from now on, First Prince will also become the new Emperor of Yuan Feng Country! Zhen will abdicate immediately!"    

    

Everyone present was shocked. None of them had thought that Old Emperor would announce such a decision at this moment. This was indeed a little sudden. Second Prince stood up angrily and said, "No! I don't agree!"    

    

Seeing that the throne was right in front of him, Second Prince naturally couldn't accept his Royal Brother becoming the Emperor. In that case, even if he became the Emperor, he would still be behind First Prince. Besides, the world would also say that he was the one who rebelled and seized the throne from Royal Brother. Instead of forcing father to abdicate at the beginning. These were two different things.    

    

However, Old Emperor had made this decision because he had no intention of considering Second Prince's thoughts. He ignored the shocked ministers and said to the guards beside him, "Take the new king and leave this place to ensure his safety."
