Chapter 1031: It’s too late to regret when you realize it later
Upon hearing Ye Chen's message, all the princes were stunned again.
After careful consideration, everyone, led by the eldest prince, compromised one after another.
And as the five princes compromised, the three princesses naturally had no objections and followed the guards to the rear palace.
However, these guards did not let the five princes and the princess stay together. Instead, they took everyone to different rooms.
Now, the five princes and three princesses became even more uneasy.
It's just that at this point, they have no choice but to resign themselves to fate and still have a sense of luck towards Ye Chen.
However, the moment they stepped into the room that Ye Chen had prepared for them, any trace of luck they had left was instantly gone.
Because they had just entered the room, a translucent barrier suddenly rose with a "Woo" sound, covering the entire room in an instant.
"There is actually a restriction?"
Nangong Lie secretly exclaimed that something was wrong.
The imperial guards who brought him here turned a deaf ear and just continued to stand outside the door waiting for Ye Chen's next order.
"Ye Chen, how dare you hide from this prince?"
The more Nangong Lie thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't think about it anymore and immediately attacked the ban.
However, the restriction is impregnable, and no matter how hard he tries, he still cannot shake it.
"Hey, what a Ye Chen, what a Nanlang from the oracle, it turns out that this was the trap you set from the beginning!"
Seeing that he could not break through the restriction, Nangong Lie realized later and figured out the ins and outs of a series of things.
There is no such thing as an oracle!
There is no chosen one!
Ye Chen even lacks the ability to single-handedly influence the struggle for the throne and quell the chaos in the imperial capital.
Ye Chen just used the name of the oracle to build momentum, let them take the initiative to surrender, and then used their fanatical pursuit of the throne to seize all the power from them bit by bit.
And as long as all their princes and princesses are completely deprived of their power, then the rumors will truly become oracles.
Because as long as all the power is gathered into one person, he is tantamount to acting as an emperor and can decide anything about the Yong'an Empire, even who will be crowned emperor.
But by the time he understood all this, it was already too late.
The restriction in this room is so strong that it cannot be shaken.
The most important point is that he is completely isolated from the outside world. He can see and hear everything that happens in the martial arts arena, but the outside world cannot see his every move here. Even when he roars wildly, no one can hear him.
Under this situation, even if he was extremely unwilling, he could only watch Ye Chen's conspiracy succeed little by little, but he was powerless.
"Hehe, what a good Ye Chen, it seems that this prince did not lose unjustly!"
As he thought about it, he couldn't help but reveal a helpless smile.
With just one strategy, Ye Chen went from having nothing to having great power in a short period of time, and took control of the entire imperial capital in one fell swoop.
He was so smart, even if he wasn't fooled, no matter how well prepared he was, he couldn't defeat Ye Chen.
In fact, maybe because of his tough attitude, he would be hit even more fiercely by Ye Chen.
Therefore, it was almost doomed that he would end up like this from the moment Ye Chen decided to intervene in the battle for the throne.
Apart from him, his brothers and sisters are probably not much better.
The only thing he hasn't figured out yet is who is Ye Chen supporting?
Or maybe Ye Chen wants to take over all the direct descendants of their Nangong royal family, replace them with himself, and seize the Nangong royal family's power.
…
On the other side, the experience of the second prince Nangong Kaige was roughly similar.
He originally thought that Ye Chen asked the imperial guards to take him to a separate room as a special treatment and as preparation for supporting him to rise to power.
It wasn't until he stepped into the room and was enveloped by an unbreakable restriction that he suddenly woke up.
"Ye Chen, you actually deceived me!"
He was furious and roared at the top of his lungs, like a mad beast.
However, no matter how irritable he was, he could not shake the slightest bit of restrictions around him.
"Would you rather support my insidious fifth brother than support me?"
After realizing that he had been deceived, Nangong Kaige was angry but also a little disappointed.
After this series of big actions, he realized even more how unfathomable Ye Chen's abilities were.
Therefore, if Ye Chen really doesn't support him, then it's useless no matter how much he resists.
"That's all, since you already have a suitable candidate in mind, it seems that this prince has no choice but to accept it!"
After trying for a long time and failing to break the restriction, he finally gave in.
With Ye Chen's ability, if he really wanted to kill him, he would have no chance of surviving until now.
Therefore, if he accepts it, he may be able to die a happy death.
Once you rise up to resist, to put it harshly, you will not know whether to live or die.
Even if Ye Chen doesn't want to kill him, he will probably not miss his old relationship in order to stabilize the overall situation.
…
In addition to the eldest prince Nangong Lie and the second prince Nangong Kaige, the third prince Nangong Xiao, the fourth prince Nangong Yuan, the fifth prince Nangong Qin, as well as the eldest princess Nangong Zhenpu, the second princess Nangong Wan, and the little princess Nangong Mingyue, were banned and imprisoned.
In an instant, they all realized that they had been fooled.
Now all the power has been handed over to Ye Chen, and they have been placed under house arrest.
Without being able to stand up and clarify the facts, the civil servants and generals under their command will definitely look up to Ye Chen.
As a result, Ye Chen can now almost turn his hands into clouds and turn his hands into rain.
A single thought can determine the fate and future of the Yong'an Empire.
No matter how unwilling they are, everyone can do nothing but passively accept it.
Even when they crushed the soul jade given by their subordinates, it had no effect at all.
Because the restriction here can isolate all connections, including soul induction.
Therefore, no matter how much soul jade they carry, they are just decorations at this moment.
The most aggrieved person is none other than the fourth prince Nangong Yuan.
Because the guards who brought him here and put him under house arrest were his troops.
It was better now, because he was imprisoned, so even if he wanted to convey a message to the guards guarding outside, he couldn't.
Because the guards guarding the door could not see or hear anything going on inside.
"I was actually tricked by myself?"
The more Nangong Yuan thought about it, the angrier he became.
That's it for the other princes. Even if they were deceived by Ye Chen, they couldn't help themselves at this moment.
But at the moment, he is under house arrest by the most loyal guards under his command.
This feeling of cheating himself made him so frustrated that he almost went crazy.
Of course, most of the princes and princesses were unwilling to give in, but one of them was an exception.
Little princess Nangong Mingyue!
Although she was also placed under house arrest in a separate room, instead of feeling angry at all, she was very happy.
She didn't even try to break the restriction. Instead, she sat down on the chair and waited quietly for the final result to be announced.
