Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.

After hearing what Valon said, the overjoyed prince quickly took the magic pendant from the other party and put it on himself as quickly as possible.

After doing all this, the prince asked, "Tell me, what do I need to pay?"

As the saying goes, there is no free lunch in the world. Since Valon is willing to help him, and even help him ascend to the throne of emperor, what the other party wants him to do must not be simple.

Valon took out a statue and handed it to the other party, saying, "When you become emperor, you must make Shengtianjiao the state religion and make everyone in the country believe in it. Every town must erect a huge statue of Shengtianzhu and hold collective worship regularly. There must be two large-scale worship activities throughout the empire every year."

"that's it?"

"Of course it's not that simple."

After hearing what the other party said, the prince's heart was finally at ease. After all, making him the emperor was a huge achievement. After that, all he had to do was promote the Shengtian Religion in the country. It was so easy that the prince didn't believe it was easy.

"I want slaves. Lots of slaves."

In response to Valon's request, the prince thought for a moment and nodded, saying, "What is the specific number of this large amount? You have to give me a number."

Now it was Valon's turn to think. After a few minutes, he said, "How about this, 300 people per month. When you take office, you can prepare me for two years first."

"That's no problem. Do you have any specific requirements for your slave?"

Even slaves were of various kinds. Some were reduced to slavery because of crimes, some were sold as slaves because of gambling debts or because they needed money for various reasons, some were captured from other kingdoms during war, and some were sent as compensation by the defeated country after victory in the war.

Of course, these slaves are not only humans, but also orcs, half-orcs, dwarves, etc.

"It doesn't matter, as long as you are healthy and strong."

"That's no problem, do you have any other requests?"

"The third and final one is that the Empire is always at war with the Vatican. Wars kill people. I want the bodies of all the dead after every war."

"A corpse? What do you want with that?"

"Don't worry about this. As long as you agree to my three conditions, our cooperation will be concluded."

The prince did not agree immediately, but after a long thought, he said, "I can agree to you, but I also need you to agree to one condition."

"You said."

"No matter what you want to do with the large number of slaves and corpses, there is one thing you cannot do with them against the Empire. As long as you agree to this, I will agree to your terms."

"Okay, I won't use these against the Empire."

In this way, the cooperation between the two was completely achieved.

That night, a huge fire engulfed the entire palace. The flames shot up into the sky and illuminated half of the sky. Even in the palace, the Blood Emperor who had been resting was awakened by the fire.

"Someone! Someone!"

Standing on a high place, the Blood Emperor couldn't help but shout as he looked at the flames rising into the sky in the distance.

Soon, a man wearing armor, with a sword at his waist and a determined face ran in after hearing the sound.

"His Majesty."

The man was none other than the Blood Emperor's most loyal captain of the guard. Only the captain of the guard dared to run in the first moment after hearing the call.

The Blood Emperor pointed at the fire in the distance and asked, "Where is the fire?"

The chief guard looked in the direction of the finger and said, "It looks like the palace."

When he heard the word "Royal Palace", the Blood Emperor frowned, and after a long while he said, "Captain of the Guards, you must take half of the guards to put out the fire immediately. You must put out the fire as soon as possible."

As the chief guard of the Blood Emperor, he knew many secrets of the palace, and naturally he also knew what kind of guy the Blood Emperor's brother was.

Logically speaking, if the palace was on fire, even if it was not the Blood Emperor who set the fire, it would have been fine if he had not added fuel to the fire. But he was actually asked to put out the fire, which was simply unreasonable.

However, since His Majesty has already said so, as a subordinate, I only need to follow orders. But he had just taken two steps when the Blood Emperor called him back.

"Remember, when you are fighting a fire, you must pay attention to the prince's whereabouts. If he is alive, you must find him. If he is dead, you must find his body."

After hearing what the Blood Emperor said, the captain of the guards immediately understood, took the order and went down quickly.

With everyone's joint efforts, the fire in the palace was quickly put out. The captain of the guards did not forget the task assigned to him by the Blood Emperor.

Because the fire broke out suddenly and it was already night, there was no one alive in the entire palace.

The captain of the guards did not say much about this. He ordered all the burned bodies to be carried out, placed together, and identified them one by one.

During this period, all the idle people had been cleared out, and those who remained were the captain's trusted subordinates.

After careful identification by the captain of the guards, the prince's body was quickly found. Although it was burned beyond recognition, its identity could still be inferred from the location of the body and the remaining cloth on it.

For the next month, everything was calm, as if nothing had happened. The prince was dead, and that was it. For someone who was always thinking about rebellion and had made no contribution to the empire, his death was actually a good thing.

A month later, the Blood Emperor, who had been diligent in government affairs, suddenly changed his personality. He did not leave the harem for three consecutive days, and he ignored the government affairs sent to the imperial study, which had piled up like a mountain.

Some ministers could not stand it and took the opportunity to make some remonstrances, but they were scolded by the Bloody Emperor instead. Later, some people were even beaten with a stick for this.

Needless to say, the reason for this situation was that Valon took action.

The original Blood Emperor had been dealt with, and now the one who replaced him was the prince who was supposed to be burned to death in the fire.

After being a prince who had been frustrated for so many years, now that he had become the emperor, naturally he needed to let himself go for a while.

All the pretty girls in the country have been screened through layers of selection, and the most beautiful ones have been sent to the harem. Now that he has become the emperor, he must live a good life.

Moreover, seeing the woman who used to be his brother now being with him, the prince felt an indescribable sense of comfort in his heart, and he felt like Prime Minister Cao.

However, after indulging himself, the prince did not completely turn against the tyrant. Although he did not review memorials until late at night like the original Bloody Emperor, he knew how to adapt. He found a small team of more than a dozen talented and honest officials to help him review memorials.

They would make the decisions on the unimportant matters, and only those that were really important would be reviewed by him personally.

Of course, the current Blood Emperor is an impostor of the prince after all. Even though Valon has repeatedly assured him that he will not be exposed, he still feels uneasy.
