Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System

No one could have imagined that Daoist Wu, who was pretending to be a charlatan, would be dumbfounded by this incident.

For a moment, he even wondered if he truly possessed miraculous powers beyond the ordinary.

Whether he could indeed establish a connection with the Heavenly Dao.

This thought made him become lively and, at the same time, immediately think of something.

It was the promise he just made, that he would offer half of the wealth he obtained from Prince You to the Heavenly Dao.

It was also because of this matter that Daoist Wu began to wholeheartedly believe in the existence of the Heavenly Dao, and started to delve deeply, solely focused on communicating with it.

Moreover, because he actually offered half of his wealth as tribute, Prince You felt very pleased, truly believing this man was acting on his behalf.

Prince You really believed he was communicating with the Heavenly Dao; didn't he see the offerings that had been laid out?

But of course, these are stories for another time, let's not discuss them for now.

Let's just talk about the matter at present.

Seeing Prince You leave, Daoist Wu originally intended to return to his own Sky Mirror.

But upon thinking that all around him were Prince You's spies, he suppressed his eagerness and had an attending disciple carry him back.

As for Prince You, upon arriving at the Imperial Council Hall, he saw a group of ministers whispering among themselves, appearing extremely anxious.

Clearly, several ministers close to Prince Ning were particularly uneasy.

In contrast, the ministers aligned with his faction wore expressions of uncontainable joy, appearing most relaxed and carefree, their noses almost aimed towards the sky.

The demeanor was clearly one of superiority.

After being suppressed by Prince Ning's faction for so long, today they finally had the chance to erase the disgrace; how could they not be excited?

Indeed, these guys had been oppressed by them for too long.

Though they were the king's capable lieutenants, unfortunately, their authority wasn't as strong as Prince Ning's side.

On Prince Ning's side, not only did they hold half of the minister positions, but even the deputies of the unheld ministries, their respective assistant ministers, were also under Prince Ning's command.

Because of this, many times, even after issuing orders, they couldn't be effectively implemented.

It's fair to say orders could only remain at the level of the deputies.

However, this situation had persisted for quite some time, and such prolonged oppression had left them somewhat breathless.

If not for Prince Ning's sudden death, they might not have lasted long and might even have defected to Prince Ning's side.

But it's too late for all that now; it's all in vain.

Not to mention defecting under Ning's banner, even those originally under Prince Ning must be in a panic right now.

At this moment, seeing the situation in the hall, Prince You couldn't help but slightly curl his lips, coughing lightly before stepping inside.

Upon seeing his arrival, everyone immediately knelt in unison, saluting and proclaiming "Long live the king."

This unusual scene appeared every day at court meetings.

However, it was the first time it happened like this today, and as to why today was different;

The reason was those under Prince Ning, showing nothing but respect in their expressions, unlike their usual arrogance at court meetings.

Every meeting, those people acted based on Prince Ning's expressions.

Prince You had little actual power.

Today's sudden change left him slightly unadapted, but soon he felt elated; the feeling of controlling the entire court was simply marvelous.

However, just as he was feeling on top of the world, Prince Ning's men suddenly knelt down with a thud.

Not waiting for him to inquire, the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel abruptly spoke:

"Your Majesty, Prince Ning was killed on the street. Please seek justice for Prince Ning, and order the whole city to search for this criminal."

As soon as these words were spoken, others quickly bowed their heads, pleading for the king to order a citywide search for Ning's murderer.

However, no sooner had these words been uttered than the Minister of the Ministry of War suddenly sneered and spoke to the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel on the ground:

"Hmph, seeking revenge for Prince Ning, Hu Yuan. What exactly are your intentions? Do you intend to harm our king and Dayou?"

As soon as these words came out, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice also suddenly spoke, sternly scolding the group.

Moreover, at this moment, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice turned to Prince You, bowing slightly, saying:

"Your Majesty, these people harbor ulterior motives against you and Dayou. Please order them to be arrested and thrown into the Celestial Prison as a warning to others."

Upon seeing this situation, Prince You felt immensely pleased.

For the first time, his men could domineeringly speak to Prince Ning's people like this; it was extremely satisfying.

However, upon hearing the suggestion to imprison them, he slightly frowned.

He then spoke warmly and gently to the Minister of the Ministry of Justice:

"Hehe, Lu Aiqing, you've overstated. I suppose Hu Aiqing and the others didn't intend for this.

Ning's sudden accident must be very upsetting for them, and I can understand their feelings.

And killing Prince Ning is indeed a serious crime, no matter what; it should be strictly investigated, so this matter..."

This time, before he finished, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice abruptly interrupted him.

This made him frown slightly, wondering if this guy was getting ahead of himself.

After just suppressing Prince Ning's men, why did he now turn to confront me?

Did he dare contradict even my words?

Daring not to wait for me to finish before jumping in; that guy needs to be sorted out, lest he becomes too presumptuous.

Besides, without Prince Ning, everyone else should be under my command.
