The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general

On September 9th, the Nanyue Kingdom was renamed the Longteng Kingdom.

This day is the day when Longteng Kingdom was founded, and also the day when Lin Nancheng ascended the throne.

A red carpet had already been laid on the way from the stairs outside the Taiji Palace to the altar, and flags were fluttering around the altar.

Lin Qiuer, dressed in Nalan witch costume, led the tribesmen who were also dressed in Nalan sacrificial costumes to perform the sacrificial dance on the altar.

"The time has come!" the official from the Ministry of Rites shouted.

Immediately afterwards, the loud sound of bells and drums broke the peace inside and outside the palace. A man wearing a black dragon robe with gold thread pattern and a crown on his head slowly walked up the stairs to the altar.

After reading the memorial text, pray to heaven for good weather, peace and prosperity for the country.

The civil and military officials and descendants of the Nalan clan, who had been kneeling under the altar since the hour of dawn, all breathed a sigh of relief.

Lin Nancheng and Lin Qiuer climbed up the stairs from one side of the altar. The people under the altar stood up one after another, dragging their legs numb from kneeling, and went up to the Tai Chi Palace in an orderly manner from both sides of the altar.

The main street in the inner city was crowded and bustling.

Today is the day when the new king ascends the throne. Later, the new emperor and the imperial preceptor will meet the people at the main gate of the imperial palace.

In order to catch a glimpse of the new emperor and the imperial preceptor, the common people crowded the open space outside the palace. The wealthy families, not wanting to squeeze with the common people, booked the second and third floors of the restaurants on both sides of the main street.

"Look, look, the new emperor and the imperial teacher are out!"

"Ah! Ah! Long live the new emperor, and a thousand years of royal preceptor!"

"Long live the new emperor!"

The shouts of the people below the palace city resounded through the sky, while Lin Nancheng, who was standing on the palace wall, was still complaining, "Little sister, why don't you become the new emperor? My mother is really something. She even refused to come out to Nalan Shan. When she was asked to attend the ceremony, she said she was too old to walk."

"Brother, you are the emperor now, please be more dignified." Lin Qiuer's face hidden behind the mask was full of helplessness.

Finally, she couldn't stand Lin Nancheng's constant nagging anymore, so she rolled her eyes, reached out and patted him hard on the back, and the nagging finally stopped.

"Hiss! Little sister, why is your strength getting stronger and stronger..." Lin Nancheng felt his back was almost numb. It hurt so much that he quietly turned his hands behind his back to touch the place where he was hit, and his expression on his face remained serious with difficulty.

The ministers behind him were all horrified when they saw this scene. They knew that the imperial teacher was of a transcendent status, but they did not expect that she could be so transcendent as to hit the new emperor in front of everyone.

The Nalan children were not surprised. When they saw the ministers in the imperial city making a fuss, they curled their lips in disgust.

"Little sister, I have reason to suspect that you were so cruel to me because you were too anxious about your upcoming wedding." Lin Nancheng said while rubbing his back.

Lin Qiuer waved to the enthusiastic people below, which caused another wave of screams and shouts.

"Why am I so anxious? I am so anxious that my elder brother is the new emperor and I am the imperial teacher. After we get married, Gu Anqing must not treat me badly. Otherwise, I will beat him up and poison him myself before you guys can beat him up."

These words made the ministers behind him feel cold all over, and they looked at Gu Anqing, who was standing beside them with tall and handsome features, with pity in their eyes.

Before, they were jealous of him, a military commander whose parents had lost all his elders, yet he could become the husband of the imperial teacher of the new dynasty. But now, they were not jealous at all and even secretly lit a row of candles for him.

No matter how unpromising the children and nephews in the family are, we cannot push them into the sea of ​​suffering. It would be better if they did not have to endure this suffering.

After the new emperor left the palace gate, the bustle inside and outside the imperial city continued.

Lin Qiu'er lagged behind for a few steps. After Lin Nancheng led everyone to leave, she walked over to Gu Anqing, who was also at the end, and explained, "Don't take what I just said to heart. I said it to the ministers. They've been making so much noise lately that I'm a little annoyed. I'm even thinking of poisoning them."

"Qiu'er, I understand why you say that."

Gu Anqing quietly reached out and held Lin Qiuer's hand, chuckled and said,

"You'd better make me look more miserable, so that those people won't pay attention to you and me. No one knows your goodness, I can be happy secretly, sometimes looking at them, just like looking at fools..."

"Pfft~ He really does look like a fool. It makes it more interesting if you think about it this way." Lin Qiuer covered her mouth and laughed out loud.

"Our wedding day is in two days. Are you nervous, Qiu'er?" Gu Anqing said with sweaty palms.

Although Lin Qiu'er didn't feel anything, she still followed Gu Anqing's words, "I'm nervous. But I can't tell others, otherwise I will lose my dignity as Longteng's national master. Oh... National Master is such a heavy burden..."

Gu Anqing wanted to comfort Lin Qiuer after hearing this, but he didn't know how to do it for a moment. He looked up and saw the new emperor walking in front of him. He thought of a plan, "The Imperial Master is very sad. But if you think about the emperor, will you feel better?"

"Haha...you really understand me." Lin Qiuer felt much better after hearing this.

It turns out that the comparison is always found from people who are worse off than oneself.

Everyone returned to the Nalan Garden, which was decorated with lights and colorful lanterns everywhere. Tables filled with delicious food were scattered among the blooming flowers.

On the stage set up in the garden, dancers in gorgeous dance dresses were dancing gracefully, court musicians were playing beside them, and the atmosphere was cheerful and joyful.

Lin Nancheng sat in the middle, Lin Qiuer also walked to the seat beside Lin Nancheng and sat down, and then the others took their seats one after another.

"May our Longteng nation prosper and its people live in peace and prosperity!"

"We, the ministers, are willing to die for our emperor!" said the ministers, raising their glasses.

Lin Qiuer had taken off the mask on her face and swept her eyes across the faces of the ministers. Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look her in the face.

"As a Nalan witch doctor, you should all know my abilities. If I discover someone who breaks the law, takes human life lightly, or sells out his country for personal gain, I will invite you all to watch his end." As she spoke, Lin Qiuer took out a bone whistle from her arms and blew it gently.

Not long after, a rustling sound was heard, and a group of ants as big as dogs appeared in the middle of the garden.

When they saw the gold, silver and jewelry on the ants' backs, everyone present was both scared and excited.

The appearance of such a big ant frightened them, but the gold, silver and jewels on the ant's back also made them excited.

"Rewards will be given for merits and punishments will be given for faults." After Lin Qiu'er finished speaking, she waved her hand again. The ants followed her instructions and found the people who had been drugged by Lin Qiu'er. They leaned over, and the gold, silver and jewelry on their backs immediately fell in front of the tables of those people.

Lin Nancheng tried to smooth things over, and laughed loudly, "Your contributions are all in our hearts, and will also be remembered by the descendants of Longteng Nation for generations to come. I believe everyone has also seen another large monument outside the imperial city, on which the people and deeds who have made great contributions to Longteng Nation will be engraved."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar at the scene, and all the ministers' faces showed abnormal blushes. If their names and the things they did were engraved on the monument, then how glorious it would be for them to meet their ancestors after their death.

Gold, silver and jewelry are all external possessions. We cannot bring them with us when we are born and we cannot take them with us when we die.

But if it can be engraved on the national monument, it will be the glory of generations to come.

From that moment on, the ministers of Longteng Kingdom worked hard to govern the country and strived to become good officials.

Even if he himself had no chance to be engraved on the tombstone, he would always urge his children and nephews to make progress and work hard to strive for the honor of the family and to be engraved on the tombstone before he died.

Being engraved on the stele became the ultimate dream of all scholars and officials in Longteng Kingdom.

Lin Qiuer, who made this suggestion, raised her glass and took a sip of wine, hiding the smile on her lips and keeping her fame and honor to herself.
