What! The Wives in My Dreams Are Real? novel Chapter 111

【Ye Kuiliang’s announcement to abdicate and appoint Ye Yu as the new emperor of the Great Yong Dynasty was made during this morning’s court session.】

【At that time, several people led by the eldest prince vehemently opposed it.】

【But it was to no avail.】

【The imperial decree had been issued, and the decision was final.】

【When Ye Yu, who was walking his dog in the outer city, heard the news, he was quite surprised.】

【What’s going on?】

【The money sent by Grandpa Zhou Baiwan hadn’t even been spent yet. And now you’re telling me the game is over?】

【Unable to make sense of it, Ye Yu decisively headed to the palace to ask Ye Kuiliang what was going on.】

【His father was just over five hundred years old, in the prime of his life.】

【Ye Yu couldn’t believe that he would suddenly abdicate for no reason.】

【There had to be some conspiracy!】

【Ye Yu strode into the palace.】

【Suddenly, he saw ten princes kneeling outside the Yangxin Hall.】

【They were all the princes who had not chosen to submit to Ye Yu.】

【Ye Yu admired these people.】

【Because it was only through constant rejection that he could squander even better.】

【In fact, Ye Yu regarded these people as business clients. Relying on them, his talent for squandering was continuously triggered.】

【So, facing the angry glares of the princes, Ye Yu completely ignored them and greeted them warmly.】

【Yo, everyone’s here!】

【This remark made the princes even more furious.】

【In their eyes, this was a way for the victor to mock the losers.】

【The eldest prince, full of indignation, kowtowed towards the Yangxin Hall, shouting loudly: Ye Yu acts recklessly, even if he ascends to the throne, he will not be able to win the hearts of the people. Father, please retract the decree!】

【Soon, Chief Eunuch Sun Fu walked over, bowing.】

【Then he slapped the eldest prince.】

【Such a scene stunned everyone present.】

【This old traitor, has he defied the heavens?】

【Sun Fu said in a deep voice: The former emperor decreed that the eldest prince Ye Kai has slandered the new emperor, a crime punishable by death.】

【But considering the difficulty of the new emperor’s ascension and to avoid unnecessary killings, he is to be confined for ten years and receive a slap, carried out by Chief Eunuch Sun Fu.】

【After announcing the decree.】

【Sun Fu immediately knelt in front of the eldest prince Ye Kai.】

【He said in a low voice: I’m sorry, this old servant is guilty, but I dare not disobey the former emperor’s orders.】

【The eldest prince’s face turned deathly pale.】

【He walked out of the palace in a daze.】

【That slap had woken Ye Kai up; his spirit had dissipated, and he knew it was hopeless.】

【Why would he continue kneeling here?】

【With Ye Kai’s departure, the other princes also understood that the situation was irreversible.】

【One by one, they slowly rose to their feet.】

【Some even cupped their hands in salute to Ye Yu before leaving.】

【Although they said nothing, this gesture indicated their recognition of Ye Yu as the new emperor.】

【Only the fifteenth prince, Ye Anming, remained kneeling.】

【He roared at Ye Yu.】

【You must have used some despicable means.】

【That’s the only reason Father passed the throne to you, right?】

【Today, no matter what, I must see Father with my own eyes!】

【Sun Fu hurriedly stepped forward and said: Fifteenth prince, please return. The former emperor ordered that no one except the new emperor is to be seen!】

【Ye Anming shouted loudly: Impossible, absolutely impossible. Father loved me the most; how could he not see me?】

【Ye Yu found this too noisy.】
