Remarry 9,000 Years Old

Fengtian Gate has always been the main gate of the imperial palace, and the main hall opposite it is where court officials gather for the daily morning court sessions.

It is precisely because of this that the imperial guards are gathered here, making it the most difficult place to attack in the entire imperial city.

If the Ninth Prince was a little smarter, he would have waited until he had successfully forced the emperor to abdicate before ascending the throne through the Zhengtian Gate.

But Ning Su was sure that with his past arrogance and the inferiority complex deep in his bones, he might not be able to wait until that time.

as predicted.

He held Shen Nanqiao's hand and ran quickly towards the place where the sounds of fighting were heard.

Shen Nanqiao's palms were sweating.

"Afraid?"

In the dark night, the man holding her hand asked calmly.

Even though she knew he couldn't see, Shen Nanqiao still shook her head firmly, as if to convince herself.

"I'm not afraid." She was a little out of breath from the long jog. "What are we going to do now?"

She had made sufficient preparations. Once Ning Su was about to go to the battlefield, she would be there to help him shoot arrows from behind.

She took a deep breath and felt her chest fill with courage.

"I'll take you to see a play."

Ning Su said this, without saying anything, he grabbed her waist, used his lightness skills, and ran towards the fire with big strides.

The Ninth Prince was absolutely sure of forcing the emperor to abdicate this time. In addition to the Tatar squadron that came to support him from outside the city, he also had elite soldiers and generals under his command.

So when he met Prince Cheng who was hurriedly leading his troops on the road leading to Fengtian Gate, he snorted arrogantly.

"If your uncle will step aside now, I will have someone escort you back home in one piece."

King Cheng sneered.

"If not, are you going to kill me right off the horse? Boy, don't forget that I was the one who taught you these martial arts skills."

The Ninth Prince drew his sword and mounted his horse.

"There is no big or small battle. If the emperor's uncle insists on being my enemy, then I will offend him."

When Ning Su and Shen Nanqiao climbed up to the Fengtian Gate, the uncle and nephew were fighting each other.

The two sides fought in a chaotic scene.

"If I ask you to think of a way, how can we quickly and safely capture the Ninth Prince at this moment?"

Shen Nanqiao's heart moved.

Although there was no forced abdication in the previous life, there were rebellions by vassal kings.

She remembered that Ning Su shot an arrow through the heart and beheaded the leader.

When talking about this past event, Ning Su just brushed it off in a casual manner.

So she was only impressed by Liuyun's skill of shooting an arrow through a target from a hundred paces away.

"You want to catch the leader first, with a bow and arrow?"

Ning Su raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the little girl guessed it right at once.

"Originally, it should be left to the emperor to decide, but since Prince Cheng is also here, let's make a quick decision."

He reached out and took a longbow from the archer not far away, and motioned Shen Nanqiao to come over.

Then he held the person in his arms and whispered.

"Did you see it clearly?"

Shen Nanqiao nodded as if he understood, and asked back.

"It doesn't matter whether I can see clearly or not, as long as you can see clearly, right?"

Ning Su raised his lips at an angle that she couldn't see, and spoke each word with profound meaning.

"Because the traitor Ninth Prince was shot off his horse by Madam Pingyang herself!"

Shen Nanqiao had not yet reacted to the deeper meaning of his words, but she saw Ning Su holding her hand and pulling the bow.

After she understood what that sentence meant, Ning Su suddenly let go of the bowstring.

The arrow whizzed towards the crowd with the force of thunder.

Shen Nanqiao's heart instantly jumped to his throat, fearing that he would miss the target and injure friendly forces.

She saw the arrow suddenly hit one of the two people fighting, and she couldn't help but let out a low cry.

When I looked carefully, I found that it was the Ninth Prince who fell from the horse.

The guards around were no pushovers either. They immediately rushed forward and tied the man up tightly.

The leaderless rebels immediately lost their composure and were hacked to pieces by the Yanyun Guards and the Imperial Guards under King Cheng, and were instantly defeated.

Shen Nanqiao let out a long breath.

Ning Su patted her shoulder casually.

"Well done."

The teasing tone of the child made Shen Nanqiao suddenly realize.

"You have already figured it out? Why were you trying to be mysterious in the Palace of Heavenly Purity just now?"

Ning Su shrugged.

"I just thought of it on impulse. How can you be so mysterious?"

Shen Nanqiao watched from afar as the Ninth Prince's men were gradually surrounded and attacked, and he felt relieved.

The Ninth Prince was quickly brought here by the guards, Ning Su said in a clear voice.

"The Ninth Prince trespassed into the Imperial Palace with ill intentions. He will be escorted to the Palace of Heavenly Purity and dealt with personally by the Emperor."

The man who was being twisted seemed to have realized it and just said it lightly.

"Are factory officials willing to be subordinate to others for a long time?"

There were many imperial guards around, and Shen Nanqiao was extremely angry. Did he want to take someone with him before he died?

Before Ning Su could speak, she had already answered.

"A traitor should be punished by everyone. Your Majesty should stop talking about other things and think about your own fate." She added meaningfully, "After all, rebellion will implicate the Ninth Princess."

The Ninth Prince's expression finally showed some fluctuations, but there was no panic as expected.

"Ninth Princess? Where is the Ninth Princess? We have already divorced."

Shen Nanqiao was stunned when he heard this, then he reacted.

The Ninth Prince was not reckless, he had already anticipated the possibility of failure.

So I thought of a foolproof plan early on.

The royal divorce required the Queen Mother's seal, and considering the relationship between the Ninth Princess and the Queen Mother, this would not take much effort.

It's a pity that we couldn't be implicated.

However, Shen Nanqiao has never been a person who would let others off easily with words. He had to say a few words to criticize the culprit who had made him frightened all night.

"If the former Ninth Princess remarries, I will drink an extra glass of wedding wine for you."

She did not miss the instantaneous change in the muscles on the Ninth Prince's face, and then followed Ning Su with satisfaction.

When he returned to the Qianqing Palace, Emperor Ming and his old ministers had already received the news.

Seeing Ning Su and his wife come in, the prince was the first to go out to greet them.

Emperor Ming sat up tremblingly.

"At this critical moment, I still have to rely on you and your wife." Then he added, "Bring Lao Jiu up here. I want to ask you, how did you treat him unfairly?"

The Ninth Prince was brought up quickly. He did not make any futile struggle but just looked at Emperor Ming calmly.

"Don't you feel guilty after sitting in a position that doesn't belong to you for so many years?"

Emperor Ming was stunned by what he said, and then he started coughing heart-wrenchingly.

The rest of the people at the scene were all watching, not wanting to get involved in such a taboo topic.

After coughing for a while, Emperor Ming finally stopped coughing, and a strange look appeared on his face.

"As you said, I not only have no guilty conscience, but I intend to continue to have no guilty conscience."

Shen Nanqiao's heart moved, and then he heard Emperor Ming speak again.

"I have just drafted the edict under the witness of all the ministers of state." He then ordered the eunuch to bring it to him and "read it to him."

Tutor Xia cleared his throat and was about to read out his speech when Emperor Ming suddenly interrupted him.

"Go and invite the Queen Mother as well. How can we not have her for such a big event?"

The Queen Mother was quickly brought in from the Cining Palace. Her expression was as calm as ever, except that her eyes paused slightly when she glanced at the Ninth Prince.

Emperor Ming had already fallen out with the Empress Dowager the day before, so he had nothing to worry about at the moment.

"My mother came later and it is better. Since someone is eager for me to give up my throne, I will do as he wishes."

As he spoke, he raised his chin towards Taifu Xia, indicating that he should read the imperial edict.

Then the Grand Tutor of two dynasties said in a loud voice.

"I have received the grace of heaven and the support of my ministers. I have been in office for more than ten years, working day and night without a single day of slacking off. Now that I feel my time is up, I am passing the throne to the crown prince and ordering the governor of the East Factory, Ning Su, to be the regent to assist the crown prince. I have announced this to the world."

The Queen Mother did not express any opinion when she heard that the throne would be passed to the Crown Prince, but when she heard that Ning Su would be made Regent, she immediately showed a mocking look.

"You are quite open-minded. You are trying to get the skin of a tiger."

No one at the scene dared to speak.

The Queen Mother glanced at Ning Su and chuckled to herself.

"Do you think a regent can contain his ambitions? The prince will be nothing more than a puppet in the future."
