However, after telling such a truth, he still couldn't help but feel bitter in his heart - thinking that at the beginning, he had deliberately planned to kill his father with his own hands, and then put the blame on Xuanyuan Hao...

Such a big game, such a careful calculation, but ultimately lost to fate.

He has to pay for the sins he has done.

The crowd was in an uproar again, and everyone was talking again. They had doubts about Xuanyuan Jin's announcement - why did the emperor still say such things at the enthronement ceremony? And if the second prince was not the real murderer of the first emperor, then who did it?

The late emperor?

Such explosive one-sided remarks will always arouse people's unlimited imagination...

"He..." Su Tong frowned, and then murmured for a while before finding her voice. Her dark eyes looked at Xuanyuan Jin from a distance, and there was a hint of understanding in her heart - it seemed that her guess was correct.

It was right from the beginning! The injuries on his face were probably made to cover up the dark spots!

He should also know that he doesn't have much time left, so he wants to give up the throne...

"Xuanyuan Hao..." Su Tong pulled Xuanyuan Hao's sleeve, wanting to tell him the truth, but before she could speak, the moment she touched his fist, she was stunned——

All the muscles in Xuanyuan Hao's body were tense, his face was slightly blue, and his fists were clenched tightly. At a glance, one could see the rage surging around him.

"You..." Su Tong hesitated for a moment, wanting to comfort him, but she still held back!

She could somewhat understand Xuanyuan Hao's feelings - it was Xuanyuan Jin who set him up and forced him to a dead end, so Xuanyuan Hao decided to give up his position as a prince and live his own free life! But he has obviously adapted to this kind of situation.

In the new life, Xuanyuan Jin pulled him back and put a possible hat on him, dragging him into the abyss of imperial power...

This feeling of being manipulated is really uncomfortable!

"Your Majesty, do you know where the third prince is now?" Now that the new emperor was ready to talk about this, a bolder minister stood up directly and asked him.

On that day, it was obvious to everyone that the Third Prince was dead! Moreover, since then, no information about the Third Prince has appeared...

How could the Third Prince still be alive in this world?

Is there really such a thing as resurrection?

"This...he..." Xuanyuan Jin hesitated for a moment, then turned his gaze to the crowd again, looking at the direction of Xuanyuan Hao from a distance, and was considering in his mind whether to point directly at him and instantly restore his identity?

"Let's go." Xuanyuan Hao snorted coldly, met Xuanyuan Jin's hesitant gaze, his eyes were full of disdain, took Su Tong's hand, squeezed out of the crowd without looking back, and walked towards the edge...

He doesn't need it!

He even disdains such rights!

Maybe letting Xuanyuan Jin know that he is still alive was a mistake in itself!

"Ah?" Su Tong was stunned, and before she could react, she was dragged out of the crowd by Xuanyuan Hao...

"Hey!" Xuanyuan Jin was startled and took a few steps forward. He was about to jump down and catch up, but was stopped by a minister sitting on the second floor. "Your Majesty, please be slow! The whereabouts of the third prince can be tolerated."

We’ll talk about it later, or check it out later, but right now... I have something to say!”

"You!" Xuanyuan Jin glared at him angrily. He looked up and found that the shadows of Xuanyuan Hao and Su Tong had already disappeared from sight. He could only turn his eyes back to this man's face dejectedly, "What's the matter?"

Anyway, everything was said during this enthronement ceremony, so there is nothing to be taboo about!

"When the emperor ascends the throne, he should grant amnesty to the whole world and celebrate such a grand ceremony together! It is a troubled time now. Many people who have contracted the plague are imprisoned in the ruined temples in the western suburbs. I wonder what the emperor... has planned?"

As soon as these words came out, other ministers also agreed. Although on the surface they were following Xuanyuan Jin's arrangements, their real meaning was obvious, that is, they hoped that Xuanyuan Jin could let the victims go!

Those ministers came prepared. In order to plead for this matter, they worked hard last night to prepare for today's enthronement ceremony.

"My dear friends, you must have an idea, right?" The corners of his lips curled up, a hint of ridicule flashed in Xuanyuan Jin's eyes, and he glanced at the active ministers, naturally understanding what they meant.

If it were yesterday, he might have ordered them to be killed without hesitation, but today... not anymore.

He is not a very evil person! He can also understand the current mood of the victims, just like he is one of the poisoned people. The strong desire for life in his heart is something that ordinary people cannot understand...

"They..." After hesitating for a moment, Xuanyuan Jin spoke slowly, speaking in a high-sounding way, "I hope God will have mercy on them and give them a way to live! I won't embarrass them, but after all, they still have the plague, so we can't do it for the time being.

When I go back to reunite with my family, I will live in the western suburbs first, and wait until a suitable antidote is prepared..."

He frowned and talked about his plan attentively. The clear and logical sequence made the ministers and people below couldn't help but nod in agreement. The public resentment that had accumulated a little was also resolved a lot because of Xuanyuan Jin's words.

Because the people's request itself is very simple - as long as the royal family does not kill them and lets them live, that is enough!

*******

Near a small river in the western suburbs.

The two figures were sitting on a boulder beside the river, leaning on each other, looking quietly at the calm lake in front of them, and then at the charred ruins on the other side. They had their own thoughts and didn't speak for a long time.

None of them expected that the enthronement ceremony would be such an undercurrent!

In an instant, everyone in the world knew that Xuanyuan Hao was not dead, and that he was still the next emperor...I am afraid that they would not be able to live in peace again!

"Xuanyuan Hao..." Finally, as the sun set, Su Tong couldn't help but push Xuanyuan Hao next to him, and broke the long silence in a low voice, "Are you... okay?"

She could feel the pain in his heart, but she couldn't express it.

"Yes." Xuanyuan Hao nodded and said nothing.
