Quick Wear: She is the White Moonlight

Chapter 34 2 Emperor Bai Yueguang (33)

Chu Ji left Emperor Xuan's bedroom holding the box. He felt neither happy about ascending the throne nor sad about his relatives' departure. In fact, knowing that his father was determined to commit suicide for love was not as painful as the news of his wife's death.

But Chu Ji knew that he would soon be on a journey alone. Even though he had done the things in the court countless times, he was still nervous.

Thinking of Yuebai who was far away in Baiyun Mountain, Chu Ji's eyes gradually became firm. No matter what, he would not be as miserable as his father.

Emperor Xuan had always been an autocratic and egocentric emperor. So on the second day, when everyone thought that he would deal with the crown prince who had been overstepping his authority during this period, Emperor Xuan directly dropped a bomb on them.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: My son, the Crown Prince Chu Ji, is talented, broad-minded, prudent, honest, and righteous, and is knowledgeable about the state. I deem him virtuous and decree that he shall succeed the throne. I decree this."

There were almost no emperors who abdicated while still alive. After this imperial edict was read out, no one in the court spoke a word.

"Why are you all silent? Why don't you kneel down and worship the new emperor?" Emperor Xuan's displeased voice sounded.

The ministers suddenly woke up from their dream and all knelt on the ground, shouting: "Your Highness, we pay our respects to the Emperor. We pay our respects to the Emperor. Congratulations to the Emperor. Long live the Emperor."

Chu Ji looked up at Emperor Xuan who was sitting on the dragon throne. Emperor Xuan stood up from the dragon throne, walked towards Chu Ji who was standing at the bottom of the steps, personally led him up the steps, and helped him onto the dragon throne.

Sitting on the dragon throne, Chu Ji looked down at the kneeling courtiers below and really felt like he had the world in his hands. So this was what it meant to be the ruler of the world.

"Everyone loves you."

When everyone looked up, they found that their new emperor was sitting on the dragon throne. The emperor emeritus had disappeared. Then, not daring to face the emperor, they all lowered their eyes to look at the tips of their shoes.

Some people also secretly looked at the prime minister, but there was no flaw on the face of this old fox, so they had to look away.

"I have just ascended the throne, and I have ordered the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the coronation ceremony."

At this time, Emperor Xuan returned to his bedroom and earnestly asked someone to comb his hair. He was not wearing a dragon robe, but a white robe with cloud pattern and a cross collar and straight hem that was popular decades ago. His hair was tied up with an ebony hairpin, leaving two strands of hair on his forehead. However, the majesty of decades in power still made it impossible for him to return to his youthful appearance.

After doing all this, he lay down on the couch and slowly stopped breathing. There was even a smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he was not going to die but to keep an appointment.

That afternoon the death knell rang in the palace.

The sound of the funeral bell spread farther and farther, and every household began to hang white banners. Yuebai, who was far away in Baiyun Mountain, seemed to sense something and looked towards the direction of the imperial city.

At this time, Wang Chen just pushed the door open and walked in. Yue Bai withdrew his gaze and asked coldly: "What are you doing here again?"

"Take you down the mountain."

Yuebai was a little surprised. She had not held out hope that she could go back. What big thing had happened? She looked at Wangchen with a puzzled look.

Wang Chen noticed Yuebai's gaze. Ever since Yuebai knew his life experience, she had never paid any attention to him. Unexpectedly, she started to pay attention to him because of going down the mountain.

"Emperor Xuan died."

Yuebai's eyes widened in surprise, and then he realized that it might be Wangchen who did it. He could hardly hide his suspicion and asked angrily, "You did it! Didn't you say you didn't want the throne?"

He pulled the corner of his mouth in self-mockery. Was he this kind of person in Yue Bai's heart? Wang Chen still explained: "I didn't do it. If it was someone from our side, they wouldn't have done it so quickly, because the poison we use is not the kind that kills instantly."

What this means is that you will be bedridden for a period of time and no one will be able to tell that there is something wrong with you.

Yuebai lowered his eyes, neither saying whether he believed it nor whether he didn't. He just said hatefully, "It's better not you did it." Then he walked straight down the mountain.

Because Yue Hua had passed away not long ago, Yue Bai was still dressed in mourning. It was already late at night when she returned to the Prime Minister. This time she came back alone. Wang Chen wanted to accompany her, but Yue Bai was angry with Wang Chen, and Wang Chen did not dare to offend her, so he had to let Yue Bai come back by herself.

At the door, Prime Minister Lin and his wife were waiting for her with a lamp in hand. Yuebai suddenly remembered that every time she came home, her father and mother were waiting for her, but this time she would not leave again.

"Father and mother, my daughter is back." She bowed to them and was helped up before she even squatted down.

Prime Minister Lin seemed to have aged even more. His hair had begun to turn slightly grey, and his wife's well-maintained face was slowly showing signs of age.

The prime minister's wife reached out her hand and lovingly smoothed Yuebai's temples, then held her hand and said, "His Majesty has already told us that it was my parents' carelessness that led my daughter into this dangerous place. We won't go there again after we come back this time." After she finished speaking, she started crying again. This was her only daughter, and she had been in the rebel's den for almost a year. How could she not be scared?

Yuebai held Madam Xiang's hand with her backhand and said softly, "My daughter didn't suffer. She is back safely, isn't she? Now that the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, I will be the Empress according to the late Emperor's will. Don't cry, mother. I will still be a husband to the country."

Madam Xiang finally stopped crying and nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, mother will wait."

"It's late, Yuebai, you should go to bed early. I'm afraid His Majesty will summon you early tomorrow morning." Prime Minister Lin tried to smooth things over and asked his wife and daughter to calm down.

Madam Xiang seemed to have suddenly thought of something and urged Yuebai: "Yes, yes, you will have to go to the palace again tomorrow morning. We will not disturb your rest."

After the two left, Yuebai contacted Baihu.

[White Tiger, when will I be able to escape and when will I be considered successful in the attack?]

[I will remind you after it is completed. At the current rate, it is estimated that it will take another two years to get rid of it.]

【Two years...】

Yuebai felt a little reluctant to leave this pair of parents.

[Didn't the young lady say that if she wanted a child made of her own blood and essence, she would know it? The young master meant that it would be best not to.]

[My brother's heart is as cold as a stone. Wasn't his last arrangement just to make Emperor Xuan leave? ]

Yuebai's spiritual sense can easily tell what happened in the capital, but she has to avoid the Heavenly Dao, so she doesn't use it often. Her brother's last move is so decisive and deadly, which good person can withstand it?

[Miss, the young master is doing this for everyone.]

[Yes, so my brother is the young master, and I am the one who is controlled by my emotions. ]

[It can only be said that the young lady has not had much experience. The young master has instructed that he will feed the young lady the Love Killing Pill at the end of each world.]

【understood. 】

Sure enough, on the second day, news came from the palace that Prime Minister Xuan Lin’s daughter had entered the palace.

The person who came to pick people up was Xiao Fuzi who was beside Chu Ji. Yuebai had no choice but to pack up and follow Xiao Fuzi.
