When Xian Taiwen\'s soldiers completely locked down the imperial capital, the ministers all rushed over to the imperial palace one after the other, requesting audience as they knelt on the stone floor.

Xian Taiwen let them in and scoffed when they all flopped to the ground and started knocking their heads against the floor. "You are all very bold. Trying to use this method to force Zhen to abdicate?!"

"Your majesty please reconsider." The ministers cried out repeatedly with more knocking of their heads. "Think of the nation and the people."

"Nation? People? You\'re all nothing but traitors! Did Zhen not treat you well? How could you betray Zhen by requesting that Zhen abdicate?" He smacked the arm of his throne. "HOW BOLD!"

"Think of the nation and the people Your majesty." The ministers only repeated with their foreheads against the floor.

Xian Taiwen looked at the ministers that were all bleeding from their foreheads. He\'d truly underestimated them. They wanted to take his throne away from him? He\'d like to see who dares! "The ministers had barged into the imperial palace and tried to murder the emperor."

The ministers looked up in horror.

"As much as it pains Zhen\'s heart," Xian Taiwen continued coldly. "Zhen has no choice but to imprison them and have them face public persecution two days later. Guards! Take them away."

No one moved.

Xian Taiwen turned to face his imperial guards. "Zhen has commanded you to take them away!"

"Tsk! The ancestors would be rolling in their graves in anger for what you\'d made of their precious nation." Xian Yuwen said calmly as he walked into the hall. His aura, dazzling and imposing.

Xian Taiwen\'s eyes shook. How? He\'d blocked the imperial capital, Xian Yuwen wasn\'t supposed to be here, his soldiers were everywhere! Wait... His soldiers. He looked to his guards and pointed a shaky finger at them. "Impossible, you betrayed me. TRAITORS!"

The guards looked down. It wasn\'t just them. Even the soldiers stationed outside the imperial capital had switched sides, how could they not? The emperor was no longer the general they recognized.

He\'d tortured innocent ladies and even ordered the deaths of the common people due to his paranoia. Some of those people were their families! How could they remain loyal?

"The emperor is muddleheaded and not fit to rule so-"

Xian Taiwen smacked the armrest again. "That\'s a lie! You can\'t force Zhen out of the throne with a mere claim of muddleheadedness!"

Xian Yuwen scoffed. "True. But how about the crime of trying to cover heaven with a palm and deceiving the common people?"

"What do you mean? When did Zhen deceive the people?"

"Still referring to yourself as Zhen?" Xian Yuwen calmly walked forward and threw a pile of parchments at Xian Taiwen. "I have evidence to prove that the \'national traitors\' you claimed to put to death years ago were in fact, death row prisoners. How do you explain this hmm?"

"No, no, no. These are lies. All lies! Don\'t believe him, he\'s just jealous and wants my throne!"

Xian Yuwen ignored him and first turned to the ministers and then the guards. "I\'m here to carry out justice so, on behalf of heaven and the people, take this incompetent ruler away."

The guards saluted and carried Xian Taiwen away immediately. He screamed and fought back but just like during Wei Yun\'er\'s time, more guards were mobilized and he was finally apprehended.

The soldiers were taken away from the imperial capital to the borders once more and peace returned to the nation as Xian Yuwen ascended the throne.

Once Xian Yuwen was comfortably seated on the throne, he spread the news that Xian Taiwen and Wei Yun\'er had framed general Wei. Even though he\'d used the Wei family as an excuse to remove Xian Taiwen from the throne, what did it matter now?

The people, on the other hand, were livid. General Wei was one of the most respected generals but all he got in the end was the emperor and his own daughter framing him.

This further solidified their thoughts that Wei Yun\'er was truly an evil spirit. What kind of noble daughter would frame their own family?

Xian Yuwen released all the daughters of noble families in the dungeon and compensated them adequately. He even gave them titles and promised to personally provide their dowries should in case they decide to remarry.

This was only done to warn off people who might say bad about them and even tempt some men to propose marriage to them again. Even if they couldn\'t be main wives, they could be secondary wives.

Who in their right mind would treat people under the emperor\'s protection unfairly? The noble families were more than satisfied with this result. The emperor didn\'t need to do this but he did anyways which showed how much he cared about his people.

Xian Taiwen and Wei Yun\'er were demoted to commoners, had their martial arts destroyed and were locked up in a courtyard together. On the surface, it seemed like Xian Yuwen was being merciful but He Yuan knew that wasn\'t the case.

For those two, living without power or freedom was the worst torture they could go through. Coupled with the facts that the common people always sneaked into their courtyard to throw stones and rotten food at them, they were basically living in hell.

Even if their assigned guards saw this. They kept silent and turned a blind eye.

He Yuan was truly satisfied with this outcome. The special ones had gone from grace to grass, he felt his mission was truly completed so when could he leave. In fact, how was he even going to leave?

As soon as he finished that thought, a prompt suddenly popped up in front of him.

[Test task complete. Leave world? Yes/No]

Finally. He Yuan saw no reason to keep staying so with all confidence, he clicked yes. Wei Luo\'s body suddenly collapsed on the bed.

The next day, Wei Luo\'s eyes fluttered open. He looked around the small servant bedroom in confusion before his eyes suddenly widened. He was back. It felt like he\'d been dreaming all these while.

Were his family members truly out of prison and hidden away? The only reason Wei Luo would only think about his family being out of prison and not hung outside the imperial capital was because by the time he died, his family were still in prison. Unlike, He Yuan, he still did not know the full story. Only till the point he was killed.

Wei Luo slowly supported himself as he stood up, he felt a little weak. He quickly packed up his bags. There seemed to be a memory where his father\'s name was cleared so his family were on their way back to the capital. He needed to meet up with them!

As he left the imperial palace, he thanked whatever force that had lived for him till this moment. He was truly grateful, he doubted if he could\'ve done a better job, even with all his medicine skills.
