Did the eldest daughter ascend the throne today?

Shaoyao handed the bun to her with a smile, "My uncle is a fool."

Ning Zhiwei: ...

She took a bite of the bun and asked, "What do you mean?"

Shaoyao took a sip of soy milk and said, "He wants to go back in time and meet us earlier."

Ning Zhiwei could completely understand this, "Life is full of regrets, and there is no chance to make up for it."

"Yes." Shaoyao subconsciously touched the beads on her neck. They were her mother's relics.

Ning Zhiwei glanced at her neck. Everyone has their own regrets, but they can't do anything about it.

"Spend more time with him when you have time. He is quite pitiful. He has been alone these years without any friends or relatives."

Shaoyao nodded vigorously, "Well, I'll make more food then and we can all eat together."

The Ning family army was stationed outside the city and did not attack the city, which made the Marquis of Zhennan quite pleased.

She just thought she had Ning Zhiwei in her control, so she got scared.

Little did they know that a big change had already been brewing in the city.

In the palace, the Southern Emperor finally woke up. He looked at the maid beside the bed and frowned, "Where's the Queen?"

The maid cautiously said, "The Queen is tired and has gone back to rest."

The Southern Emperor's health was getting worse and worse. He needed someone to serve him when he was eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. His temper was getting more and more irritable. He insisted that the Queen stay by his side all the time and see her every time he woke up.

The Queen was a spoiled noblewoman, how could she bear it? It was good enough for her to endure it two or three times. How could she possibly stay with him forever?

"You just want to be lazy. Go find her and call her over, right away."

He threw a fit of tantrums weakly, and when dinner was served, the palace servant bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I will serve you dinner."

The Southern Emperor was half lying on the bed, and a palace servant was feeding rice to his mouth. Accidentally, the chopsticks poked the Southern Emperor's nose, and the Southern Emperor immediately flew into a rage.

"You damned slave, how did you serve me? Drag him out and chop him up."

The palace maid was terrified and fell to her knees with a plop. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I heard some rumors and was too scared, so I lost my manners."

Sick people are suspicious by nature, so the Southern Emperor immediately asked, "What's the rumor?"

"This..." The palace servant hesitated, seeming to be in a dilemma.

"Speak." Nan Di was paranoid. The time he was awake was getting shorter and shorter, and he always felt that he was going to die.

The palace maid was terrified and said, "I heard that the Marquis of Zhennan... intends to usurp the throne. The officials are colluding with each other. Everything is ready, except for the east wind."

The Southern Emperor's face changed when he heard this. "How dare you frame the Southern Marquis, you bastard?"

The palace maid kowtowed desperately, "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, I just heard it from others, you can't take it seriously."

There was a gloomy flash in the eyes of the Southern Emperor, "Come out."

A dark figure appeared in the inner hall, "Greetings, Your Majesty."

The Southern Emperor asked coldly, "Are there any unusual movements in the court?"

The secret guard said, "Yes, the officials are in collusion with each other, and who knows what they are plotting behind closed doors."

The Southern Emperor was furious. "You don't know? What use are you? You are a bunch of rubbish. Go check it out."

"Yes."

The Southern Emperor became more and more worried. He was born into a royal family where there was no family affection. He had been accustomed to the intrigues and deceptions among his relatives since he was a child. He was afraid that his throne would be lost, and he could not trust his uncle wholeheartedly.

"Where is the Marquis of Zhennan? Go and call him over."

The palace maid hurried away and hurried back, "Your Majesty, the Marquis is busy and can't come."

Emperor Nan became even more suspicious. Could they really be plotting to kill him?

"I'm not even dead yet, and he dares not to obey my order. How brave he is."

The palace servant explained carefully, "Your Majesty, please calm down. It was the Ning family's army that was approaching the city, and the Marquis was trying to defend himself against the enemy..."

The more he said this, the more suspicious the Southern Emperor became. Why were they all speaking for the Marquis of Zhennan? Was it possible that everyone in the palace had been bribed by the Marquis of Zhennan?

For the throne, he could disown all his relatives, kill his father and brothers without blinking an eye.

Therefore, he had no doubt that Marquis Zhennan would do the same.

Marquis Zhennan is just his uncle.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the secret guard, "Ning Zhiwei is here?"

"Yes."

Nan Di suddenly thought of someone and frowned, "Then, where is Ye Lie?"

He once ordered Ye Lie to poison Ning Zhiwei. Now, Ning Zhiwei is fine, which means Ye Lie failed.

MD, is also a waste, a gangster who can never achieve anything great, and only knows how to fight and kill.

The secret guard whispered, "Maybe he failed."

The Southern Emperor didn't care about Ye Lie's life or death. He was just an insignificant chess piece. "Go and find out. The most important thing is, who has the Hundred Flowers Detoxification Pill? We must get the Detoxification Pill."

He only cares about his own life.

"Yes."

In the city, people gathered in groups of three or four and whispered to each other.

"Did you hear that? Princess Jingning has come back to rescue us."

The loudspeaker was shouting every day, and anyone who was close to the city gate could hear it. The news quickly spread to every corner of the capital, and everyone was very excited.

They didn't believe what others said, but Princess Jingning was different from those people.

"Ah, that damned Zhennan Marquis, in order to prevent the Princess of Jingning County from entering the city, actually threatened the lives of us ordinary people. He is such a bastard."

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and hated the Marquis of Zhennan.

"He wants to set fire to the city and burn the people in it. This son of a bitch has no humanity at all. I really want to stab him and send him to see his grandmother as soon as possible."

"People like this don't deserve to live in this world. It's better for them to die sooner rather than later."

Someone sighed softly, "Now that the grain store is closed and no longer sells grain, it seems we have to defend the city gates."

"Hey, what should we do? If this continues, those corrupt officials and rich people will live well, but we ordinary people will starve to death first."

"Haha, let's go rob the rich before we starve to death. If we die, we die together."

"Yes, that's right." Everyone was very excited.

Someone whispered, "It would be great if we could secretly open the city gate and let the Ning family army in."

Several people looked at each other, thinking. It was difficult for ordinary people to get close to the city gate, but there was a way.

There were undercurrents surging underneath, but the Marquis of Zhennan knew nothing about it. He only wanted to suppress those rebel kings and create a gap to ensure that the supply channels would not be cut off, thus leaving him alone and helpless.

However, the general Ma he sent out was not very capable. Sometimes he won and sometimes he lost. His battles were disorganized and there was no plan.

This really pissed off the Marquis of Zhennan. "Can you do it?"

Unexpectedly, General Ma stiffened his neck and asked, "How about you go ahead?"

Marquis Zhennan was so angry that his mouth was crooked. This man was his confidant, how could he become like this in just one month?

"Deputy General Ma, what do you mean?"

General Ma took a deep breath and said, "My Lord, is it worth it for a person who is so ungrateful and ungrateful? Even if we win, what good will it do us?"

To put it bluntly, there is no sense of faith.

A half-dead king, with only the present dynasty but no future dynasty, what hope is there? What is he holding on to?

Marquis Zhennan was silent. Sometimes he asked himself, is it worth it?

General Ma's eyes flashed, "My Lord, let's rebel!"
