Douluo: Reincarnation of Leosli, punishing the evildoers
Chapter 489 Proclaiming Emperor
Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, the momentous day of the succession on a snowy night is almost here!
Tiandou City has been incredibly lively lately, with prestigious families springing up like mushrooms after rain, and top nobles from various kingdoms and duchies gathering here. It's as if this place has become a stage for power, with everyone eager to witness this grand event.
Although Emperor Xueye was already in his eighties, his robust physique could easily last another ten or eight years. Soul Masters are generally more physically robust than ordinary people, even for short-lived beings like emperors.
However, the wise ministers and nobles in the palace knew very well that they had no objection to Xue Qinghe's ascension to the throne.
After all, they all knew that this was an inevitable part of the transfer of power.
If you could defeat either the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School or the Duke, they wouldn't say anything.
Moreover, apart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Duke, Xue Qinghe did indeed do much better than his father in several other areas.
At least for now, the Heavenly Dou Empire is quite impressive in terms of both population and economy.
The duchies and kingdoms under the empire have also developed quite well thanks to Xue Qinghe's comprehensive management policies.
Therefore, it was only natural for Xueye to abdicate.
Tiandou City is incredibly lively today, as if the entire city is enveloped in a festive atmosphere. Lanterns are hung high, colorful ribbons flutter, and a joyous ambiance is overwhelming, making one want to dance along!
On the bustling street, a group of horsemen stood out and attracted everyone's attention.
Normally, riding horses is forbidden in Tiandou City, but today was an exception. And riding on horseback was none other than Xue Qinghe, whom everyone both respected and feared.
She was in the prime of her life, full of youthful vigor and high spirits!
At this moment, she had a bewildered look on her face, as if she were in a fog, and her eyes showed a hint of blankness.
The throne was about to be hers, a moment she had long awaited. Why did it feel so heavy on her shoulders, as if the future of the entire Heavenly Dou Empire was pressing down on her? She silently asked herself, "Am I really ready?"
In that moment of daze, it was as if time itself had stood still in her mind.
Is this the throne she's after? Thinking back to how Qian Renxue has been lying low for twenty years for this day, from the age of nine until now at twenty-nine, she has dedicated the best years of her life to the Heaven Dou Empire without reservation.
Now that I have finally succeeded, I don't know why, but I feel no emotion at all.
The succession on a snowy night left Xue Qinghe somewhat bewildered.
Xue Qinghe looked up at the sky, but at this moment he didn't know what to do.
"Don't think so much."
A familiar voice sounded from behind her. Xue Qinghe turned around and saw Leosley standing not far away.
Xue Qinghe was taken aback: "The Duke?"
Leosley smiled faintly and chuckled, "What's wrong, Your Majesty? How does it feel to hold imperial power? Isn't it like basking in a spring breeze?"
"Duke, please don't laugh at me. You know I don't actually like this position."
A complex expression flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes as she shifted her gaze from Leosley's face to the distant horizon. The wind ruffled her long hair, the golden strands fluttering in the air, appearing exceptionally dazzling.
“Sometimes I wonder if we’ve been moving too fast on this path.” Xue Qinghe’s voice carried a hint of sadness, and her expression was slightly solemn. “There’s something that just doesn’t feel real.”
“Qinghe,” Leosley interrupted Xue Qinghe, his gaze lingering on Xue Qinghe’s face for a moment, a slight smile playing on his lips. “Don’t be so pessimistic. Imperial power isn’t a shackle; you can see it as a tool to realize your dreams. No matter what difficulties you face, always remember that you are Xue Qinghe, the future leader of the Heavenly Dou Empire. Don’t hesitate, don’t be confused, and bravely step forward! Believe in yourself, believe in your country and your people.”
Upon hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in Xue Qinghe's eyes. Leosley's words seemed to have brought her new hope.
“You are you, you are not anyone’s individual. You are responsible to all your subjects, they are your responsibility, but you can also be your own emperor.”
"so."
Leosley's lips curled into a faint smile.
"Don't overthink it, I'm leaving now."
Enjoy yourself!
Xigewen waved to Xue Qinghe from a distance.
Leosley chuckled and turned to leave.
Xue Qinghe watched Leosley's departing figure, his brows furrowed slightly, seemingly lost in thought.
As Leosley approached the investiture procession, the nobles naturally saw him, but...
Who dares to stop us!
Forget about stopping them, they all automatically made way for each other.
Leosley smiled faintly, nodded slightly, and continued on his way.
The nobles naturally dared not stop him, and they all lowered their heads, afraid of making eye contact with Leosley.
They knew that this was the Crown Prince, no, soon to be called the Emperor Qinghe, the biggest backer. Even the soon-to-be Emperor Emeritus Xue Ye had no objections, so what objections could they possibly have?
Those members of the Avalanche Party, who were close to the Fourth Prince, were now like mice seeing a cat, all keeping their distance for fear of becoming "accomplices" to be purged.
You know, Xue Qinghe has had quite a bit of "dealing" with them!
Now that we've got the throne, shouldn't we at least try to destroy them?
Meanwhile, the three members of the teaching committee of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy never stopped smiling.
They are the Crown Prince's faction. Now that the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, aren't they the Emperor's faction?
The three education commissioners exchanged glances and then laughed heartily.
When the Crown Prince toured Tiandou City with his court officials, it was as if he were loudly announcing: This empire has a new master!
Whether it was the nobles who had already heard the rumors or the bewildered commoners, they all understood at this moment that Xue Qinghe would be the future ruler of the Tiandou Empire.
"His Highness the Crown Prince is truly kind-hearted; becoming emperor would be the most ideal choice for him!"
"Who can disagree? His Highness the Crown Prince's ability to govern the country is evident to all. Our lives will only get better and better from now on."
“Indeed, indeed. I heard that the Crown Prince has already sent people to the duchy and kingdom to promote some basic education.”
"Yes, the Crown Prince is truly a wise ruler for all time. Our descendants will have plenty to boast about."
Ordinary people on the street were all expressing their feelings.
Who doesn't like a good emperor?
The nobles in Tiandou City all submitted to Xue Qinghe from the bottom of their hearts.
They had all seen the influence of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Duke. Now that these two big shots were supporting them, how could they dare to have any objections?
Moreover, they weren't fools; they all knew the royal family had a good relationship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Duke. Now that he was emperor, wasn't that just icing on the cake? (End of Chapter)
