  Shen Ran's death was ignominious. His body was damaged and his chest had so many broken bones and was sunken. He was buried in only a white robe, not even the uniform of a prince.

  He lay quietly in the coffin, without even anyone burning paper to pay tribute to him.

  "This prince had a miserable life." Shen Ran had already come out of the prince's body. He leaned on the side, but no one could see him. He subconsciously raised his hand to touch his chest and sighed, "He died in a miserable way."

  This was indeed true. 999 also fell silent. The crown prince was dead. Both the old emperor's corruption and the turmoil in the court would end here. He would be burdened with shackles that would bring him infamy for thousands of years, which would be recorded in history books.

  Suddenly, there were subtle footsteps outside. Shen Ran subconsciously turned his head and saw a man in a black cloak walking towards him. Shen Ran curled the corners of his lips. He knew who the person was without guessing.

  Sure enough, the man stopped in front of the coffin. He took off his cloak, revealing that familiar and handsome face. Xiao Huan raised his hand and touched the coffin. Shen Ran noticed that his fingertips were trembling slightly, as if he was suppressing some unknown emotion.

  [Shen Ran: Has his dark value decreased? ]

  [999: When I saw the fake will, it dropped to 5%. Now it is 3%, and it is still dropping.]

  Upon hearing this, Shen Ran turned his head and glanced at Xiao Huan, saying, "Then there is only one step left. We should be able to complete this task."

  He didn't know why Lu Zhou was so anxious all of a sudden, but it made sense. If he could finish the mission sooner, he wouldn't have to worry about the mission failing.

  On the day of the prince's funeral, it was done in a very hasty manner. There were some people who came to watch, but without exception, they all brought rotten vegetable leaves and threw them at Shen Ran's coffin. Shen Ran himself was actually watching from the side, but he didn't care, as it was the setup he had set up anyway.

  As long as he became the sinner of the world, and then Xiao Huan killed him, he could legitimately become the common ruler of the world and become the emperor. He believed in Xiao Huan's ability to govern the country and his character. The turmoil in the world caused by the old emperor's tyranny and the people's miserable lives could end with him.

  Xiao Huan did not show up from beginning to end of the funeral. Shen Ran was subconsciously a little disappointed, but when he thought that he would meet him again soon, he cheered up again.

  Xiao Huan was leaning on the couch at this time, holding the table with one hand, coughing, choking on blood in his mouth and looking painful. He took a deep breath, forced the breath down, and cleaned up the blood without changing his expression.

  It was unknown how long the imperial edict beside him had been there. Short footsteps were heard outside, and Xiao Huan heard someone report, "Your Majesty, Defu is here."

  After Xiao Huan responded, Defu was led into the hall by the eunuch.

  "Your servant pays respects to His Majesty." Defu knelt on the ground. Without Xiao Huan's order, he did not dare to look up. He heard Xiao Huan's voice above his head, saying, "You really listen to the prince."

  After these words were spoken, De Fu didn't even dare to raise his head.

  "You do whatever he tells you to do. Why? Aren't you the late emperor's man?" Xiao Huan looked a little tired. Under the weak candlelight, you could faintly see that he had white hair on his temples. De Fu knelt on the ground, trembling all over, and said in a trembling voice, "I... I was indeed arranged by the late emperor, but the prince was kind and more convincing than the late emperor. Later, I returned to the late emperor, but the prince did not care about my mistakes, so I was able to save my life."
