LEGEND OF THE CROWN PRINCESS

ARC 2 - FEMALE EMPEROR: Episode 37 - Coronation

Consort Fan Hai hit the weaponry official trying to resuscitate the man, but had no effect whatsoever. While outside Master Tao's tent was surrounded by Hu Yazhu's troops, Ryu came out along with the dying Emperor. The Taoist teacher who saw that directly helped the Emperor as well as Hu Yazhu who was immediately anxious and approached them.

"Hu Yazhu, stop! I couldn't have killed my own father. Consort Fan Hai did it!"

Highlighting Hu Yazhu's eyes now slowly calmed down, he felt that Ryu's every utterance was indeed true. Not long after the Emperor woke up with so much blood spewing. "I'm sorry for my foolish daughter Yijin, Hu Yazhu after this you're the one in charge of the Crown Princess' ascension to the throne!"

"Dad please don't talk like that, I'm an alchemist I'll cure you!"

The emperor nodded slowly. "Daughter, it's about time a King as untalented as me was replaced by a tough woman like you. I believe you can be a wise Emperor in reconciling the world like your mother.

Then, your stepmother's plan was to wake up the Demon King... Don'tdon't... Till... It's... It worked!" one last breath of the Emperor who was in Ryu's lap finally blew. Ryu cries as if hugging the Father, so naive and stupid that he still failed to protect his loved ones.

Consort Fan Hai along with the official troops started to exit the tent. However, Hu Yazhu who saw him instantly deployed his troops to charge at them. "Soldier! Arrest these traitors and put them in a dungeon until they wait to be executed!"

Ryu was still piled up with his father's corpse, Teacher Tao could only accompany and accompany the two of them. While Hu yazhu stared at Ryu filled with grief, Consort Fan Hai as well as all the traitor troops were brought by him into the dungeon.

The entire Tao Tribe's population met Ryu and his teacher, walked slowly and saw the Emperor's death. "Daughter, let's give your father a proper resting place."

Ryu shook his head and came back crying as he looked at his father's face. "Dad, I'm sorry!"

"There are some things you can't change even if you're reborn. Princess Yijin, let me give a blessing to your late father."

Ryu looked at Master Tao with sadness, but he agreed. Afterwards, the Emperor's body was immediately taken to the kingdom by the Taoist Tribe. As per royal regulations tomorrow was the day of the coronation of the new Emperor, so Ryu had to go to the palace to succeed his father and also preside over the funeral ceremony.

Although with a heavy heart, he still had to run the empire as it should, he also had to suppress personal feelings for the sake of the people. He must begin to learn to always be wise in making decisions no matter how important he is.

After successfully returning to the palace, Ryu changed his identity back to the name Yijin. Yijin was immediately given special services to attend the mourning event, Wen Jia who was none other than her half-sister approached Yijin and cried over the departure of her father. "Dad! Don't leave me!"

Yijin glanced sharply at Jia and approached her with anger, the girl standing in front of the restless Jia. The woman was still haughty and unwilling to submit to the Crown Princess who had returned. Yijin slapped hard on Jia's cheek.

"Emperor doesn't need your boay tears!"

One more slap landed on Jia's cheek. "If you love her why do you keep quiet when your mother gives her poison?"

"I." Jia's speech stopped when Ryu slapped him again until he fell.

"Lower Princess Jia to a commoner, expel her to the Eastern part of the kingdom don't let her come back until I ask for her!" Yijin gave the order.

After Jia was forcibly evicted, the night Consort Fan Hai and also the weapons officials were given the death penalty by drinking poisoned tea. The funeral service was completed and the Emperor was placed in the final resting place.

Yijin's first night in the palace as Crown Princess was the worst night for her. He lost his father and made him so moody. Because of that, Hu Yazhu invited Akira, Grandpa Asahi and Huo Sijue to comfort the Crown Princess. Even though the three had come, Yijin still did not show any reaction. His life was like a nightmare he had to live with.

The next day all the people got the good news about the ascension of the Crown Princess to become the first Female Emperor of the entire Daehan continent. The entire Kingdom will celebrate after the coronation ceremony is over. Wen Yijin dressed neatly in a red imperial robe and embroidered a picture of a pheonix on the back with sparkling golden threads.

After the coronation ceremony, ministers and royal officials gathered in the political space. With this Yijin announced some important things such as freedom of life for the entire population of the Taoist Tribe as well as the appointment of Taoist teachers as a keraajan advisor. Huo Sijue replaced the Weaponry Officer and Hu Yazhu was given the title of Great General.

Asahi's grandfather was made a divining elder in the kingdom while Akira became a young butler who was revered as a noble princess. Although many ministers opposed the unilateral decision made by their new Emperor, they could not protest. Rampant corrupt officials will soon be exterminated and directly investigated by Supreme General Hu Yazhu.

Every business owned by the kingdom some of the income funds will be given to the people, some will enter the special royal treasury disaster. The tax levies previously controlled by Consort Fan Hai are arbitrarily now directly regulated and checked by Yijin himself.

After all the affairs of the state are finished, it is time to welcome the arrival of the kingdom that will cooperate with the Wen Kingdom. Wen Yijin was already on his throne, he was so calm and looked dignified. Also, its very beautiful appearance makes anyone will be fascinated by its beauty.

Several representatives came to give their best gifts, as well as the Long Kingdom that brought Prince Long and Princess Long before the new Queen. "Hail the Emperor, we bring you the green jade that is so privileged in the country. Please Your Majesty accept it."

"I accept it, please enjoy the banquet!"

Hu Yazhu could only stare at Wen Yijin from a distance, after Yijin's identity was announced as the Crown Princess and ascended the throne to become the first Female Emperor, Ryu's name instantly disappeared. By that also means his future wife was never there. The difference that is so visible now, makes it difficult for him to reach the woman in front of him even though he is very close to her.

As there was a distance that stretched apart them, whether to be together or not Hu Yazhu would still keep a blank sheet in his life, leaving space and time for Yijin just in case the woman he so admired could be in his arms.
