So when he heard the news that the Monarch Emperor of the Jun Empire had died, he was utterly incredulous. Who in the Jun Empire would dare oppose him? As long as there was even a whisper of dissent, he would send someone to eliminate it.
"There really are people like that, huh."
An Jiuyue clicked her tongue in amazement. Was this a monarch who had completely excluded his ministers and governed the country single-handedly?
"Someone would actually dare to assassinate him?"
It wasn't entirely impossible. Perhaps some individuals who escaped his purges had turned back, scheming to kill their monarch.
"This... is hard to say."
The Ninth Prince shook his head, feeling the prospect of assassination was no more than a flippant remark.
