The strongest nine thousand years old

Without loyalty, how can there be rebellion?

Chen Dong looked at Yan Yunzheng calmly, "If I were a traitor, I would have exposed your identity long ago."

Yan Yunzheng was silent.

Indeed, once everyone knows that she is a woman, the world will be in chaos!

"I'm just guessing now. That old man and my godfather are both too weird." Chen Dong said.

He asked in return: "If it were you, and your loved ones were killed, would you swallow your anger and serve your enemy instead?"

Yan Yunzheng shook his head, "Unless he wants to take revenge."

After considering his tone, Yan Yunzheng asked, "Didn't Chen Sigui say anything strange to you?"

Chen Dong spread his hands and said, "If he told me, would I still be staring at you?"

Chen Dong stroked his chin and asked, "Actually, I never really understood how you became the emperor?"

Yan Yunzheng looked sad and sighed deeply, "Three years ago, the late emperor passed away, but the only person who could succeed the throne was my elder brother Yan Yunzheng."

"Wait, you've confused me." Chen Dong wondered, "Aren't you Yan Yunzheng?"

"My Zheng means kite. When the late emperor named me, he hoped that I could fly freely in the sky like a kite." Yan Yunzheng said with emotion.

"You are indeed like a kite, being pulled by a string." Chen Dong nodded in agreement.

If it weren't for the ties to the Great Yan Empire, Yan Yunzheng would be a carefree princess now.

"My eldest brother died suddenly, and the late emperor didn't want the Great Yan to fall into the hands of others, so he had no choice but to let me take his place. Fortunately, my eldest brother had been bedridden due to a long-term illness and rarely went out. Few people had seen his true face, so I was able to take his place." Yan Yunzheng sighed softly.

It was also because the real Yan Yunzheng had been bedridden for a long time that he was able to not touch any woman in the harem three years after his wedding without arousing suspicion.

That's why Yuwen Rou arranged for Chen Dong to treat Yan Yunzheng.

"He was bedridden for a long time and suddenly died..." Chen Dong thought darkly, "Did someone secretly poison him?"

Yan Yunzheng was stunned. She had never thought about this question in the three years since she ascended the throne.

However, Yuwen Rou has a mind-deceiving poison in her body, so someone must be coveting the throne. The real Yan Yunzheng may have become a victim of the power struggle.

Yan Yunzheng's face turned pale, her hands and feet were cold, and she suddenly felt dark and depressing all around her. It seemed as if there was a pair of cold eyes in the darkness, staring at her unscrupulously.

She shuddered suddenly.

Chen Dong stepped forward and held Yan Yunzheng in his arms, whispering, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Yan Yunzheng subconsciously wanted to struggle, but the warm and strong embrace gave her a strong sense of security, making her unable to help but lean closer.

Smelling the scent on Yan Yunzheng's body, Chen Dong couldn't help but feel a little distracted and held him tighter in his arms.

Yan Yunzheng leaned on Chen Dong's chest and could hear his strong heartbeat.

"It would be better if he was more steady." Yan Yunzheng thought to himself.

Although she was an emperor, she was still a woman after all, and her worship of the strong was deep in her bones. Although Chen Dong helped her a lot, she was not like Xiao Yourong, who could be so unscrupulous and obsessed with Chen Dong.

A faint sigh came from Yan Yunzheng's mouth, carrying a sense of desolation.

Chen Dong put his hand on her forehead and whispered, "I will help you secure your throne."

Yan Yunzheng smiled bitterly.

How can it be easy to deal with internal and external troubles?

"Most of the officials in the court have already disappeared. Once this imperial examination is over, you will have a large number of talents to use. Just be patient." Chen Dong comforted him.

Because of this, Chen Dong did not let the Jinyiwei conduct a large-scale investigation of the officials. The court, which was riddled with problems, still needed these officials to maintain it. When their replacements - the talents selected through the imperial examination - appeared, it would be time to settle accounts with those people!

Yan Yunzheng felt a warm current flowing in her heart, as if having Chen Dong by her side made her feel particularly at ease. Not long after, the sound of even and heavy breathing could be heard.

"Damn, he actually fell asleep." Chen Dong felt helpless.

He looked down at Yan Yunzheng's haggard face, a hint of heartache flashing in his eyes.

"I will always protect you."

…………

After dawn, Yan Yunzheng stretched subconsciously, and was shocked to find that Chen Dong was lying behind her, with his stick pressing against her. The hot long stick made her feel embarrassed and angry.

Yan Yunzheng's face darkened, and he pushed with his arms, and Chen Dong fell down with a "gulp".

He cried out "Ouch", covered his chest and climbed up, "What are you doing?"

Yan Yunzheng's face was filled with anger, and he said in a deep voice: "If you continue to do this, I will turn you into a real eunuch!"

Chen Dong muttered softly, "It was you who fell asleep leaning on my arms."

Yan Yunzheng blushed slightly, raised his head and said, "Go out, serve the meal!"

Chen Dong had no choice but to have breakfast delivered.

Yan Yunzheng also calmed down and regained his majestic dignity.

"With such a big fuss about sealing off Cuihonglou, have you thought about what to do later?" Yan Yunzheng asked in a deep voice.

Chen Dong bit his bun and said casually, "Harboring a traitor."

Yan Yunzheng was silent for a moment, and whispered: "You really..."

Chen Dong slammed the table and said angrily: "You are not done yet, are you? If I say it is not true, then it is not true! Since you doubt me, I will leave the palace now!"

Chen Dong wiped his mouth, then really stood up and walked out.

He counted silently in his mind, "1...2...3..."

However, Yan Yunzheng did not say anything to stop him until he reached the door.

A hint of disappointment flashed across Chen Dong's eyes. He opened the door and a curvy figure suddenly came into view.

At the same time, a faint "wait" came out of Yan Yunzheng's mouth.

But Chen Dong's attention was attracted by the white scene in front of him, and he did not hear Yan Yunzheng's shout.

"Yourong, why are you here?" Chen Dong asked in surprise.

"I came to see you specially. The Imperial Guards have sealed off Cuihong Tower, and that little bastard Xiao Yan has been caught by the Imperial Guards." Xiao Yourong said with a look of disappointment.

Chen Dong's big hand fell on Xiao Yourong's buttocks and squeezed it hard, "My brother-in-law is a very romantic and dashing man."

Xiao Yourong said angrily, "He is just a reckless man who has nowhere to vent his energy! Let him out quickly."

"If he was a reckless man, he would have made a scene when he was caught," said Chen Dong.

How could the son of the Minister of Works be more important than the younger brother of the Marquis of Zhenbei?

Xiao Yan did not jump out to reveal his identity, which shows that he is a man of great talent and knows his limits.

"Oh, please let him go. The two people at home are so anxious that they can't eat." Xiao Yourong said in a soft voice, holding Chen Dong's arm.

"I'll leave the door open for you at night." She tiptoed close to Chen Dong's ear and whispered.

"Snapped"

Chen Dong slapped her buttocks and said seriously: "Don't tempt me, I can't help it."

Xiao Yourong laughed and kissed Chen Dong on the face, "Let's go!"

Chen Dong was directly pulled away by Xiao Yourong.

Yan Yunzheng witnessed this scene without any expression on his face, but he unconsciously exerted force with his hands.

"Click"

The chopsticks were broken.
