Remarry 9,000 Years Old

This period of mourning is destined not to be peaceful.

Especially when the news that the prince was going to abdicate was announced, it immediately caused an uproar.

The Queen was the first to step forward and insisted that her son was coerced by Ning Su.

She had her hair disheveled and refused to wear mourning clothes. She cried in front of several elders in charge of the funeral, complaining that Ning Su bullied them, an orphan and a widow.

At this time, Concubine An, who had never shown her true colors, stood up and pointed out that the Queen had once attempted to seduce Ning Daban, but failed, so she held a grudge against her.

The old ministers naturally didn't believe it, so Concubine An called Princess Chongde out.

Shen Nanqiao recognized at a glance that this was the girl who had been detained in the palace by the Queen and had to learn etiquette on a snowy day.

The girl described in detail how the queen set up the plan and how Ning Su remained unmoved and quietly preserved the reputation of the royal family.

Shen Nanqiao was secretly shocked when he heard this.

No wonder the Queen had an inexplicable hostility towards her since the first time she met her. At that time, she thought it was because of Emperor Ming.

I never expected that she actually wanted to go with Ning Su!

Princess Chongde's testimony was admittedly exaggerated, but there is no smoke without fire, and the Queen's denial was weak and flimsy.

The onlookers also made their own judgments.

Princess Chongde's testimony made the Queen, who was already in a bad position due to her tantrums and foolishness, even more disadvantaged.

Considering the prince's reputation, he was finally sent to the royal temple to live out his life on the grounds of being immoral.

Without this obstacle, Emperor Ming's funeral went much more smoothly.

Under the instructions of the Crown Prince, and with the joint efforts of several veteran officials who were well versed in the inside story, Ning Su's identity was soon revealed to the world.

Tutor Xia even created a series of images of a man who endured humiliation and hardship for this factory official, who had a not-so-good reputation in the past.

How he lost his father at a young age, how he endured what ordinary people could not endure, and how he rose all the way to the top.

He was good at creating an atmosphere, and this time he beautified Ning Su's life story tenfold.

The fruits that Shen Nanqiao had planted in the past also began to bear fruit at this time.

The families of the soldiers who had received her favor united together and spread the news of how great the new emperor was inside and outside the city.

The people quickly accepted the fact that Ning Su's age had increased from nine thousand years old to ten thousand years old.

The new emperor ascended the throne and changed the reign title to Changping.

Shen Nanqiao naturally became the queen.

Due to the new queen's good reputation among the people and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Princess Cheng did not acknowledge her daughter.

"Being able to be mother and daughter in this way is already the best arrangement." She is very open-minded.

Everyone said that Wang Cheng and his wife were the godfather and godmother, and they were really reaping the benefits.

Only a very small number of insiders know the mystery.

Shen Nanqiao was not obsessed with fame. After all, his mother's happiness in the second half of her life should be the responsibility of another person.

Whether or not she has this title actually has no impact on Princess Cheng.

As for the Shen family, they were the Queen's nominal family after all, and because of this relationship they recovered a little.

However, Shen Mingde unexpectedly resigned from the position of Minister of Rites, and his son Shen Hong entered the Ministry of Rites instead.

Although his official rank was not high, he did have a background.

Princess Cheng also teased the newly promoted Concubine Ma: "I said at the time that there would be consequences sooner or later. So, was I right?"

Aunt Ma, who had become the new Mrs. Shen, was wiping away her tears.

"He now calls me mom as per the rules. It's really a pleasant surprise. It's all thanks to the eldest lady."

"If you can earn an imperial decree in the future, it will surely be yours." Princess Cheng comforted.

Shen Mingde knew that if this family wanted to revive, he'd better stay hidden, so he was also very sensible.

Because of Shen Mingde's awareness of the times, Shen Nanqiao specially promoted Old Lady Shen to a higher rank. After all, he was the one who once protected her, so at least she would have some confidence when she entered the palace in the future.

Several concubines in the palace who had princesses were also given the title of dowager concubine, and they moved into the princess's mansion with their daughters.

Because the empress dowager had murdered Ningsu's biological mother in the past, she was exiled to the imperial mausoleum and recited sutras every day to forgive her sins.

Coincidentally, she suffered a stroke the day after she went to the imperial mausoleum and was in a daze the whole day.

The servants knew that she had a blood feud with the new emperor, so naturally they did not serve her wholeheartedly.

Not only was he hungry, but he also developed bedsores and died within a few months.

This lesson from the past frightened Pingyuan Hou's family.

I originally thought that the old marquis had saved the new emperor's life, so I could be considered to have followed him.

But he had chosen the wrong side between Emperor Ming and the Empress Dowager before, so now the regent became the emperor directly.

If he hadn't had the previous conflict with Shen Nanqiao, perhaps he would have been shameless enough to try to curry favor with her.

The problem is that ever since Shen Nanqiao came into the family, the two families have become increasingly at odds.

Pingyuan Hou was filled with regret and beat his chest and stamped his feet every day, wishing he could cut the trouble-making Shen Jingyi into pieces.

Seeing this, Su Wan'er took the initiative to offer advice.

"It is said that the person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it. She is the one who offended the Queen, so why not let her come forward?"

Pingyuan Hou woke up as if from a dream.

Yes, why should I put the whole family in it just for her?

"That's a good idea. Come on, pack up and go to the palace to meet the Queen."

Su Wan'er glanced at Shen Jingyi with ill intent.

"After all, we are sisters. Even if our bones are broken, we are still connected. If the Empress is pleased, who knows, she might even grant you an imperial decree."

Shen Jingyi finally went to the palace to meet Shen Nanqiao.

"Are you satisfied to see me in such a state?"

She knelt on the ground with her belly bulging, and once again felt the disparity in status.

Shen Nanqiao felt that she thought she was too brainless.

"You have a husband and children, and you have no worries about food and clothing. How can you be considered poor?"

Compared to my experience in my previous life, it is like heaven and earth.

Shen Jingyi looked up vigilantly.

"You've already sat in this position, and you still want to argue with me?"

Shen Nanqiao laughed.

"Isn't it easier to argue with you if I sit in this position?"

"The new emperor has issued a general amnesty, and I have been cleared of all the crimes I carried. I have no legitimate reason to be a master. Even if you are the queen, you can't do anything about it, right?"

Shen Nanqiao saw through her self-deceiving disguise at a glance.

"If even though she is the queen, she can't do anything to you, then wouldn't this queen be too frustrated?"

She did not say what she planned to do with Shen Jingyi, but instead had someone send her back directly.

Pingyuan Hou and his wife were waiting at the door early in the morning. When they saw her come back, they asked her all kinds of questions.

But Shen Jingyi couldn't explain why.

From then on, she lived in fear of when the other shoe would drop.

Due to the endless accusations from her parents-in-law and husband, as well as the embarrassment from her co-wife Su Wan'er, Shen Jingyi's child was born prematurely.

Unfortunately, this child did not bring any hope of revival to the family.

The Ninth Princess was found to have helped the Ninth Prince commit treason.

The factory guards "just happened to" discover evidence of Shen Jingyi's past collusion with the Ninth Princess, and the entire family of Pingyuan Marquis was exiled.

As luck would have it, they encountered bandits on the way to exile, and the whole family was killed or injured.

After Shen Nanqiao learned the news, he just said indifferently.

"Those who found the body buried it on the spot."

Compared to being left dead in the wilderness in my previous life, this is already a good ending.

Everything was settled and the prince was ready to leave.

Ning Su did not try to keep him, but took Shen Nanqiao with him and sent him out of the city.

The prince has changed into the attire of an ordinary young man, and there is no trace of the heir apparent in his past.

But the expression between his brows was extremely comfortable.

"It's not like being in the palace. No one will take care of your food and drink. You have to rely on yourself for everything."

The prince narrowed his eyes in a smile.

"It's rare for Otomo to be so kind to me. He usually says that I'm delicate and need more training."

He still used the old name, as if nothing had happened between them.

"I have asked Prince Cheng to arrange all the post stations along the way. If you are short of money or encounter any difficulties, you can just go there directly."

Shen Nanqiao gave instructions on every detail and stuffed a large bag of silver into the prince's hand.

"When you are poor, you should keep some loose change on you. Remember not to show off your wealth."

The prince did not shirk his responsibility.

"Take good care of Otomo. He has a cold temper, so please bear with him."

Shen Nanqiao just felt a little sad.

The young boy who was so unbridled when we first met seemed to have grown up overnight. Time is always the most irresistible enemy.

As I was sighing, I heard the sound of horse hooves not far away.

Looking up, they saw Lin Jingshu running with her face slightly red, and she barely got off the horse in front of them.

Shen Nanqiao tactfully pulled Ning Su back to within an arrow's reach.

Lin Jingshu stared at the prince.

"Didn't we agree to conquer the world together? Are you planning to leave on your own now?"

The prince was startled when he heard this.

"Now that I am no longer the crown prince, the marriage is no longer valid. You can leave on your own."

Lin Jingshu looked at him generously.

"Whether you are the prince or not, does it matter if you travel with a companion?" Without waiting for the other party to answer, she curved her lips cunningly, "Let's go, I'll take you to see the beautiful rivers and mountains."

The prince hesitated for only a moment, as if afraid that she would change her mind, and immediately jumped on the horse.

"go!"

The morning sun gently shines on the backs of two young and beautiful people.

Before Shen Nanqiao could recover from the touching moment, he felt someone holding his hand.

Ning Su took the opportunity to put his arm around her shoulders.

"Then follow me and make this beautiful country better."
