Ninety thousand years of rebirth

Chapter 215: The Dust Settles

In the main hall, facing his former imperial brother, Li Chengliang remained silent.

"I remember the late emperor's last wish that we should not kill each other, but now we are still in this situation. Brother Liang, what do you think we should do?"

Li Chengren asked coldly as he ascended the throne.

Li Chengliang snorted coldly: "Kill or cut into pieces as you wish!"

"I have said that I remember the last wish of the late emperor, so I will not kill you, but I will demote you to a commoner. From now on, you will leave Chang'an and never come back!"

Li Chengren made the final decision, and it was the only way to avoid killing Li Chengliang.

Li Chengliang tried to kill Li Chengren several times, but failed.

With this in mind, it would not be too much for Li Chengren to kill Li Chengliang, but he did not, perhaps because he still cared about the family ties.

Li Chengliang was stunned for a moment, and being demoted to a commoner was the best punishment for him.

He laughed twice, took one last look at the palace and turned around to leave. Now he was alone and had nothing else.

Perhaps I will never be able to return to the palace again.

But there is still one person in his heart who must be killed, Ye Qing!

It was Ye Qing who caused him to lose everything. He didn't want to take revenge on Li Chengren, but he couldn't let Ye Qing go in his heart no matter what.

He already made a decision in his mind and quickly left the palace.

Then it was Li Chengzhi's turn, the man with the highest cultivation level among the princes. He was standing in the main hall. After a few days, his arm had grown again.

"Third brother, I am now demoting you to a commoner and punishing you to serve in the army. You will not be allowed to come back without my order!"

Li Chengren then stated the punishment for Li Chengzhi.

Li Chengzhi looked surprised. After all, he personally wanted to take action against Li Chengren. If he didn't die, he would be like Li Chengliang, who would never be able to get involved in the military and political circles.

But now he has gone to the army, and he is obviously given special care.

"Your Majesty... the common people take your orders!"

After Li Tianhe's death, all princes were automatically promoted to princes and should even have their own fiefs. Now Li Chengliang and Li Chengzhi have lost these.

Li Chengren nodded slowly. He still liked Li Chengzhi very much. He was daring and suitable for being a military general.

Then he looked at King Xiang who was standing there, and couldn't help but smile and asked: "Fourth brother, where do you want to go? As long as it is within the Li Tang Empire, as long as you want it, I will grant it to you!"

King Xiang smiled, he had already made his decision.

"Your Majesty, all I need is a small town."

Then he chose the city closest to Chang'an City. This move was undoubtedly intended to put himself under Li Chengren's supervision.

This was used to show that he had no second thoughts.

Of course Li Chengren was happy. He offered several important official positions to King Xiang on the spot, but they were all rejected. Now King Xiang just wants to be a free prince.

Li Chengren did not force it, but turned to look at the prime minister.

Among the people present, the Prime Minister was probably the one who hated Li Chengren the most.

It is clear that he is only one step away from becoming an unprecedented person in the Li Tang Empire!

If Li Chengliang takes power, it will give him huge power, even greater than what he has now.

Power is like a whirlpool, sucking everyone in, only getting deeper and deeper, and few people can escape from the whirlpool of power.

Even though he is already the Prime Minister, he still wants more!

But now, everything has come to nothing.

"The Prime Minister is already old. I think it's better to go home and retire."

With one word from Li Chengren, the prime minister was dismissed from his official position.

Afterwards, Yang Ping was conferred the title of General Protector of the Country, with a rank of first rank, which was regarded as the highest official position among military officers and held real power in his hands.

Then, he began to promote the ministers who had initially supported King Xiang and then turned to support him, but the others did not move.

Even the general retained his previous position, but was relieved of his military power.

After taking these measures, the scene in the court suddenly changed, but these had nothing to do with Ye Qing.

After settling the matters at court, Li Chengren went to the backyard of the palace and found Ye Qing who was resting.

"Brother Ye, you have contributed a lot this time. Whatever you want, I will definitely satisfy you!" He said grandly.

In front of Ye Qing, he still didn't dare to call himself me.

Although Ye Qing held the title of royal husband, he actually did not hold any official position.

It can be said that Ye Qing is a commoner.

But as the emperor, he always maintained awe and respect in his heart in front of Ye Qing.

Ye Qing smiled and said, "I'm just waiting for you. I really need something. It shouldn't be too difficult for you."

With that said, he handed a piece of paper to Li Chengren, which recorded a lot of elixirs, immortal herbs, and even two heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

"Brother Ye wants to make elixirs?" Li Chengren asked with a smile.

"Yes, you have become the emperor, I can't stand still, right?" Ye Qing said with a smile.

What was on the note was no problem at all for Li Chengren. He immediately sent someone to prepare it and delivered it to Ye Qing not long after.

"Brother Ye, how about I make you an official? In fact, our Li Tang Empire is pretty good." Li Chengren said as if he was joking.

Ye Qing just smiled slightly: "Forget it, I don't want to face intrigues all day long, being an official is not suitable for me."

"Forget it, if there's anything else you want, Brother Ye, just tell me. As long as it's not the Li Tang Empire, I can give it to you!"

Li Chengren was filled with gratitude towards Ye Qing. After all, Ye Qing stayed for him to resist the assassins, which left a deep mark on his heart.

Ye Qing just smiled and said: "I won't return that sword to you. I don't want anything else. After I finish refining the elixir, I should leave the Li Tang Empire."

After Li Chengzhi failed, Ye Qing put away his Mad Dragon Sword.

Even the royal family of the Li Tang Empire only had this heavenly magic weapon in their hands.

"Brother Ye, are you still going to the Jiuyou Ruins?" Li Chengren asked, not caring about the Mad Dragon Sword at all.

Ye Qing nodded slowly, he had to go to Jiuyou. In addition to avoiding the detection from the upper world, he also wanted to go to Jiuyou to investigate.

The ruins of Jiuyou are still a mystery, and no one knows what is really hidden there.

What makes Ye Qing anxious is that the upper realm should already know that someone in the lower realm is targeting them, and it may not be possible to connect Ye Qing with the Qing Emperor in the upper realm for the time being.

But just in case someone guesses, what Ye Qing will face will be many powerful emperors from the upper world!

At this time, he is far from growing up, so before that, he needs to practice silently.

"Then I can only wish Brother Ye all the best."

The two looked at each other and laughed. There was no need for words between friends.
