Having children earns benefit, start competing for dominance in the world by marrying a wife-Chapter 1303 - 993: The Emperor Who Defected to the Enemy

Suddenly, he stood up fiercely, flipping the desk over, and the memorials on it scattered all over the floor in an instant.

“They’ve revolted, revolted!!!”

“They all have revolted!!!”

“Do they really think I dare not kill them?!!”

Previously, the officials from Pei Shuhua’s faction had only been making small, secretive moves, at least outwardly showing respect to him as the Emperor.

However, ever since the news of the Royal Ancestor’s impending end spread, the officials of Pei Shuhua’s faction had become extremely brazen. They dared to publicly express the idea of dethroning the emperor and even write memorials to him, hinting that he should abdicate the throne to someone more capable, so as not to harm the Chiyue Dynasty.

As an Emperor, to be advised by his subjects through memorials to abdicate, who could endure such insolence.

The key issue was that it wasn’t just one person who wrote memorials but a group of them. Now, more than half of the ministers in the court had sided with Pei Shuhua.

Not just those ministers, but also the seigniors of the Chiyue Dynasty and members of the Royal Family were entertaining the idea of dethroning the Emperor.

At this moment, Pei Wenfu only wanted to kill Pei Shuhua, but regretfully, he lacked the power, nor could he find someone capable of killing her.

Just then, a soft and effeminate voice sounded in the Imperial Study Room, “Oh my, who has upset His Majesty the Moon Emperor to such an extent?”

Clearly, the voice belonged to a man, yet it was as smooth and effeminate as a woman’s, and it sounded somewhat sissy.

No sooner had the voice finished speaking than a man dressed in a purple robe, holding a folding fan, appeared in the Imperial Study Room. The man exuded an intense aura of Yin energy, looking exceptionally sinister.

Upon the arrival of this man, Pei Wenfu seemed not too surprised. His rage seemed to have subsided considerably, and then he said coldly to the man in purple, “What are you here for?”

Feng Tengfei covered half of his face with the folding fan and said effeminately, “Why, of course, I’m here to help Your Majesty, the Moon Emperor, make a firm decision.”

“If the Moon Emperor continues to waste time, it won’t be long before the Chiyue Dynasty has an additional Empress.”

Hearing Feng Tengfei’s words, Pei Wenfu fell into silence.

At that moment, Feng Tengfei closed his folding fan and slowly walked up to Pei Wenfu, whispering in his ear: “Your Royal Ancestor’s life is nearing its end. The only possibility to save the Chiyue Dynasty is to cast your lot with us. Even if your Chiyue Dynasty really has a change of Empress, it won’t last long either.”

“Moreover, if you agree to our conditions, not only can you preserve the Chiyue Dynasty, but you can also eliminate Pei Shuhua, the biggest threat to you. Two birds with one stone. Why wouldn’t you agree to such a deal?”

Hearing Feng Tengfei’s seductive proposal, Pei Wenfu clenched his fists. Of course, he knew there might be traps, as the current state of the Chiyue Dynasty was like fish on the chopping board to other Empires, each wishing to carve out a piece for themselves.

However, he was also without recourse. If he wanted to retain his throne, it seemed the only option left was to cooperate with the other Empires.

After much deliberation, Pei Wenfu finally made a choice, “Fine. As long as you agree to preserve my throne, I am willing to bow my head and serve as a vassal to the Qingyun Dynasty.”

Seeing that Pei Wenfu had finally agreed, Feng Tengfei chuckled and said: “The Moon Emperor has finally made the right decision.”

Pei Wenfu continued: “However, Pei Shuhua has already the strength of a Quasi-Emperor. With my current ability, I’m afraid I can’t deliver her to the Qingyun Dynasty.”

The Qingyun Dynasty had put forward two conditions. One was for the Chiyue Dynasty to bow and become a vassal to the Qingyun Dynasty, and the other was for Princess Junwan Pei Shuhua to marry the current Emperor of the Qingyun Dynasty.

Both of these conditions are inseparable from Pei Shuhua. As long as Pei Shuhua remains in the Chiyue Dynasty, it’s impossible for the Chiyue Dynasty to submit to the Qingyun Dynasty.

Moreover, it’s now impossible for Pei Shuhua to obey his, the Emperor’s, commands. To have her marry the Emperor of the Qingyun Dynasty, he’s afraid that as soon as a Holy Decree is issued, he himself would be dethroned.

The key to fulfilling these two conditions lies in how to deliver Pei Shuhua to the Qingyun Dynasty.

Hearing Pei Wenfu’s words, Feng Tengfei said indifferently: “The Moon Emperor need not worry. Once that person dies, you can issue the Holy Decree, and by then our Qingyun Dynasty will send a Great Emperor to pressure the Chiyue Dynasty.”

Pei Wenfu frowned and said: “I’m afraid that still won’t work.”

Feng Tengfei asked: “Why is that? Does the Moon Emperor think that Pei Shuhua, a Quasi-Emperor, could resist the pressure from three Great Emperors of our Qingyun Dynasty?”

In Feng Tengfei’s view, once the Royal Ancestor of the Chiyue Dynasty dies, there would be no Great Emperor left in the Chiyue Dynasty. Then, facing the pressure from three Great Emperors, the Chiyue Dynasty would have neither the courage nor the qualifications to refuse.

Pei Wenfu said: “That old immortal taught her a special Cultivation Technique, and she can now become an Emperor at any moment.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Tengfei was taken aback; he had indeed not expected such a situation.

At present, only Pei Wenfu and Pei Shuhua knew about this; it was normal for Feng Tengfei to be unaware.

The smile on Feng Tengfei’s face had vanished. He initially thought the Chiyue Dynasty was at the end of its rope and easily manageable, not realizing the Chiyue Dynasty still had a hidden card up its sleeve.

However, probing the Chiyue Dynasty for any secret weapons was indeed the reason for his visit.

Now that he was aware of this secret, as long as he relayed the information back, the three Great Emperors of the Qingyun Dynasty would be able to find a way to counter it.

And even if Pei Shuhua really did become an Emperor, a freshly ascended Great Emperor could in no way compare to a seasoned one. The Qingyun Dynasty could still force the Chiyue Dynasty to bow and become a vassal.

With this thought, the corners of Feng Tengfei’s mouth lifted slightly. Then, he said: “I hadn’t expected that the Chiyue Dynasty would have such a card up its sleeve.”

“But then again, if it were so easy for you to turn a Quasi-Emperor into an Emperor, the Chiyue Dynasty would have already had dozens of Great Emperors by now.”
