Star Empire Era 217.
Imperial capital.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good news. The Imperial Palace Engineering Institute successfully detonated an atomic bomb in the Tabot Desert in the Western Desert. The Imperial atomic bomb experiment was successful."
The secretary-general hurriedly ran in from outside the imperial study room, with excitement on his face.
The atomic bomb is a great technology, and it also means that the Star Empire is officially moving towards the era of possessing nuclear weapons.
"I understand."
Regarding this, Yang Yu's expression was not as excited as the secretary-general's.
He had received it in advance, and the imperial atomic bomb was successfully detonated on Tarbot, a land with hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of desert.
"Take it."
He pointed to what was written in front of him.
"The Empire's first atomic bomb was named pistachio?"
Seeing the contents of the document, the secretary-general was stunned for a moment and said, "No, I'll ask the Empire Daily News to send it out right away."
"Go!"
It is a very great thing for the empire to move towards the nuclear era.
Nuclear and non-nuclear have different meanings.
Although there is only one civilization on the Origin Planet, the Star Empire, nuclear bombs are of great significance.
The day after the atomic bomb was developed.
The cabinet ministers hurried to the imperial study room.
"Your Majesty, I do not recommend the construction of such a large-scale weapon of destruction. What is this thing being developed for?"
"I don't recommend the construction of this kind of atomic bomb. The origin star is our Star Empire. Is it possible to build nuclear weapons to hit ourselves and throw them into the cities of our empire?"
"I firmly oppose such weapons, and please Your Majesty to withdraw..."
Listening to the garbled words of the cabinet ministers, Yang Yu's face, which was still a little happy because of the appearance of the atomic bomb, gradually became filled with dark clouds.
"Has the birth of the atomic bomb harmed the interests of all my dear friends?"
"Since it has harmed the interests of all my dear friends, please go home and rest!"
Today's cabinet is really worse than the last. They only think about their own interests all day long, completely forgetting the interests of the empire and what changes it will bring to the empire.
As soon as the emperor said this, all the ministers looked at each other with obvious hesitation.
They thought the emperor would compromise this time, but they never thought that the emperor would dismiss them directly.
Taking a break is actually asking them to get out and make way for the newcomers.
"Your Majesty, I can still serve the empire..."
The finance minister was about to express his loyalty, but Yang Yu interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"Wei Aiqing has two sons and one daughter at home. The eldest son is engaged in business. He often uses Wei Aiqing's name to borrow money from the Imperial Bank. When he repays it, he defaults on the loan from the Imperial Bank. He also takes advantage of Wei Aiqing's popularity to forcefully suppress commercial companies at low prices. He also used threats against other people’s families.”
"The second son seems to be polite and responsible, but he still provides advice to your eldest son."
"My little daughter is arrogant and domineering. She gets into fights, privately modifies cars, and races in the southeast of the imperial capital in the middle of the night. Racing is a trivial matter. What is there in the southeast, do you need me to tell you?"
"boom."
His big cold hand slammed on the table, causing the table to tremble violently, and he looked at everyone present with his cold eyes.
"I delegate power to you, and this is how you repay me? Look at your previous cabinet ministers, and then look at you?"
"Do you really think that since I haven't left this imperial palace for more than twenty years, you can cover up the sky with one hand? I haven't killed anyone for decades, so you can ignore the laws of the empire?"
"The grandson of King Zhennan, my nephew, died on the way to serve the empire's justice. Do you look at the current Minister of Justice?"
"Shenji Guards, check it out for me. Anyone who violates the laws of the empire will be killed without mercy. If he is an imperial minister, his crime will be increased."
"Immediately send me an order for the armies of the Eastern Barren, Southern Barbarians, Western Desert and Beiming to directly enter the city and control all the cities. Anyone who violates the laws of the empire in any continent, whether they are merchants or imperial ministers, will be captured. Anyone who dares to resist will be captured. , kill them on the spot."
"I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go. Especially those with very famous names in the city, let me investigate them to death, and let me investigate all eighteen generations of their ancestors."
"It's really outrageous."
Yang Yu looked livid and said in a deep voice.
The ministers present here had beads of sweat dripping from their foreheads. They seemed to think that the emperor was too simple.
"Why don't you speak? Why, do you want to be a bamboo leaf green?"
Then, Yang Yu's eyes fell on the prime minister who had never spoken a word before entering the imperial study. The coldness in his eyes could almost solidify.
"Your Majesty, I am aware of my crime. Please forgive me for my ten years of hard work for the empire and please spare my family."
Although the Prime Minister did not know who Zhu Yeqing was, he quickly prostrated on the ground, his heart filled with fear.
The emperor has not left the imperial palace for more than twenty years.
Unexpectedly, the control of the empire was still so terrifying.
"How should I call you? Should I call you Qi Aiqing, or should I call you Murong Aiqing?"
Yang Yu stood up from his seat, walked to the old man who was over fifty years old, and said:
"It has been more than two hundred years since the Beichuan Empire fell. I did not exterminate all the Murong royal bloodline members of your Beichuan Empire who were honest and responsible. Even after knowing your identity, I ignored the past grudges and used you to make you the prime minister of the empire. Why? Are you still thinking of subverting our Star Empire? Reaching out to my Star Empire’s army in Beiming?”
"What?"
After hearing this, the ministers who were trembling with fear looked at the Prime Minister of the Empire in disbelief after hearing the emperor's words.
Is this a royal descendant of the Beichuan Empire?
The finance minister, who was on good terms with him, quickly stayed away from the prime minister.
Damn it, you are actually a descendant of the Murong family.
You deserve to be damned if you still think about subverting the rule of the empire.
If the emperor comes to implicate the ten clans, won't he bring disaster to Chi Yu?
"Your Majesty, I don't want to, I don't dare, but I..."
The prime minister's expression was complicated. He was shouldering his own mission. Although the empire treated him well, and he recognized the empire's rule and worked hard for the empire, he could not forget his own identity.
"Don't you dare? What is there that you, Murong Aiqing, don't dare to do? The boy who controls one of my divisions in Beiming belongs to your Murong family, right?"
"What's going on, you want to control one of my divisions to fight against my million-strong army in Beiming? Isn't it too naive?"
Originally, Yang Yu didn't want to go on a killing spree, but these guys went too far.
He turned a blind eye to corruption and perversion of the law, which did not damage the essential interests of the empire or endanger the lives of the people of the empire. But you just hit my gun. If you don't die, who will die?
"I never dare to..."
"I don't want to hear you say you don't dare here, or I am too kind to you remnants of the empire, so I will kill you."
"Invite the two great families of Long and Bai to come to my imperial study."
The words fell.
The officers and soldiers of the Royal Forest Army quickly rushed into the Imperial Study Room and forcibly took the imperial cabinet ministers into custody.
The secretary-general hurriedly went down to inform the heads of the two major families in the empire.
This is a truly old family in the empire. When the Star Kingdom was first established, it was an old family that followed the Star Kingdom to conquer the world. It is a family that unconditionally supports the royal family.
Since the empire unified the world, the allegiance of the two major families has directly changed from the royal family to the emperor.
Two hundred years ago.
Long Qi, the general who suppressed the Southern Barbarians, came from the Long family.
Bailu, the general who suppressed the Western Desert, came from the Bai family.
"Hey, I hope your descendants can produce a few more children who can carry the banner of the empire for me!"
…
South of the imperial capital.
In a courtyard covering an area of about 1.2 square kilometers.
An old man with gray hair and lively eyes was playing Go with a child.
Seeing that he was surrounded by his eldest grandson, he was so overwhelmed that he lost a piece and turned against the wind.
"Xiao Qi, do you know where you lost?"
"My grandson is too persistent."
"Okay, let's do our homework!"
The old man looked at his eldest grandson with joy. Another handsome man was about to appear in the Bai family. At a young age, his attainments in the art of war had almost reached the pinnacle.
Future achievements are limitless.
It will surely reach the height of the ancestral egret.
"Grandpa, grandpa, it's a good thing, it's a good thing."
At this moment, a young woman wearing simple clothes with the Bai family's unique logo embroidered on her chest hurriedly ran over.
"What's the fuss about? What's the decency?"
Seeing his eldest granddaughter running over in a hurry, the old man looked solemn and said majestically.
"The deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army has given orders from His Majesty to allow you to enter the palace."
"Uncle Long has already gone to the Imperial Palace."
the woman said excitedly.
"Summoned by His Majesty?" Upon hearing this, the old man was a little stunned.
How many years has it been since His Majesty summoned the Long and Bai families?
It must have been fifty or sixty years ago.
"Where is the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army?"
"Still outside the door."
"Then why are you still young? Invite the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army to the living room."
The old man's eyes widened. The deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army was a truly powerful figure.
Now without His Majesty's care, the Bai family, which is almost being squeezed out by the newer families, cannot afford to offend the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army.
"yes."
"I'll come over right now."
…
In just one day, the news that the emperor dismissed all ministers of the cabinet spread like a hurricane throughout the empire.
The news that Prime Minister Murong Qi was a remnant of the royal family of the Beichuan Empire, and controlled a division of the empire in Beiming, with the intention of subverting the empire and restoring the Beichuan Empire, shocked the empire even more.
Countless people criticized him verbally and writtenly.
No one wants war. War means the loss of the people, and no one wants to be displaced.
The news that the emperor reactivated the two major families in the empire also spread throughout the country.
The glorious moments belonging to the two great families have also returned.
One after another, the cold steel lions entered the major cities of the Star Empire and began to clean up the empire based on the information provided by the Divine Machine Guard.
The remnants of the Beichuan Empire in Beiming and the Toroso Empire in West Desert were all wiped out.
Any businessman or minister who violates the laws of the empire, including unstable dark forces that endanger the empire and the safety of citizens, will be killed on the spot if they resist. .
The armies of Donghuang, Nanman, Ximo, Beiming and Zhongzhou were all moved, which shows the emperor's determination.
In just half a year, those who want to have evil ideas have seen what domination and imperial power are.
