Quick Wear: The Cold Beauty's Sickly Husband is Super Clingy

at dusk.

Outside the imperial palace, the colorful lanterns on Suzaku Street contrast with the quiet night, creating a peaceful and beautiful picture.

Lanterns of various shapes and sizes light up the night. People around admire the colorful lanterns and feel the joy of the Lantern Festival.

Jing Ling looked at the lanterns sparkling in the moonlight. Her elegant face was coated with various colors of light, emitting a delicate and soft beauty from the inside out.

Tan Ming stood beside him. The man with deep brows looked intently at Jing Ling under the lantern. His tall figure formed a sharp contrast with the thin Jing Ling, but it also made people feel extremely harmonious.

He quietly held Jing Ling's hand and said, "Jin'an, I think you are more beautiful than the lantern."

Jing Ling tilted her head and looked back at him. Her red lips, like rose petals, were bright and eye-catching, and her face, as gentle as jade, had a peaceful and holy smile.

Tan Ming's breathing stagnated. He suddenly held Jing Ling's face and licked her tempting red lips. "Jin'an, it's a good thing that you were a noble prince before, otherwise you don't know how many peach blossoms you would have attracted."

If it weren't for her noble status, such a beauty would have been bullied.

Jing Ling laughed dumbly and said, "What are you thinking about! I used to concentrate on studying and government affairs, so I didn't have time to think about these romantic things."

Tan Ming looked at him with burning eyes, Jing Ling's figure reflected in his dark eyes.

"You are this person..."

"Why are you so ignorant of romance?"

Why did the other party really explain it? Shouldn't he have said some romantic words?

Jing Ling smiled gently, and brushed Tan Ming's eyebrows with his slender fingers, "We have already seen the flower lanterns, why not go and release the river lanterns."

"I heard that it is very effective when lovers release river lanterns and make wishes together."

Tan Ming held Jing Ling's fingers. The white jade-like fingers were held in the man's palm, which made people feel that this scene was very pleasing to the eye.

"Okay, let's go release river lanterns. I want to make a wish to be with you for the rest of my life."

One lifetime is not enough, he wants it for lifetimes!

The smile at the corners of Jing Ling's eyes grew wider and wider, adding a bit of beauty to this fair face.

"You and I will stay together for the rest of our lives. The gods will hear your prayers."

If he heard it, he would help Tan Ming get what he wanted. The bond between them is inseparable.

——Wait a little longer. When I have gathered all the soul fragments, I will return to the Sky World to revive Chongming. Then, Chongming and I will be inseparable for the rest of our lives.

Tan Ming held Jing Ling's hand and walked to the stall by the river and bought two river lanterns.

He handed Jing Ling a river lantern and said, "Let's go and release the river lanterns together."

Jing Ling took the river lantern and followed Tan Ming to the stone steps by the river where colorful river lanterns were flowing. He bent down and put down the river lantern in his hand.

He watched his river lantern and the one put down by Tan Ming drifting away little by little, and sincerely prayed in his heart that his lover would always be by his side.

Tan Ming's eyes also followed the two river lanterns and he silently made a wish in his heart.

——I made a wish to the river god, hoping that the sweetheart I care about can be with me forever, and I wish him peace and happiness for the rest of his life.

He put his arm around Jing Ling's shoulders and said, "I am in love with you. Time is the witness and years are the name."

"Jin'an, I am pleased with you."

Jing Ling smiled and said, "When I finish my work here, I will travel the world with you. Cherish the present and spend the rest of your life with you."

Then gorgeous fireworks bloomed, matched with various beautiful lanterns, outlining an extremely romantic picture.

Two people stood side by side under the moonlight, their faces filled with happy smiles, which contrasted with the bright lanterns on the long street.

****

The next morning.

Emperor Xuan of Xia looked at the pile of memorials requesting the dethronement of the crown prince on the imperial desk with an angry face, and finally threw them all to the ground with a wave of his hand.

"A bunch of bastards! They are full of nonsense and wantonly trying to sow discord between me and Ling'er. They even want me to depose the crown prince!"

"I and Ling'er are father and son, why should I let him go? It's his blessing to be the crown prince!"

Eunuch Liang had a stunned look on his face, staring at the self-deceiving Majesty with an indescribable expression.

As the saying goes, forgive others when you can.

Why can't you let the prince go? Can you not give this blessing to His Highness?

He considered himself an old man who had watched the Crown Prince grow up, and he really felt sorry for His Highness, just like those court officials who submitted memorials to His Majesty requesting that he depose the Crown Prince.

Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is unwilling, why should Your Majesty continue to force him? Does Your Majesty really want to drive His Royal Highness crazy?

The veins on Emperor Xuan of Xia's forehead bulged, "I will never allow Jing Ling to leave me. He is the only one who can be the Crown Prince of Great Xia. No one can take him away from me!"

"It will never be possible to give him freedom."

Eunuch Liang pursed his lips and lowered his head to control his expression.

When he looked up again, he had a simple and honest look on his face, but there was no sign of anything wrong.

This crappy job is so hard!

He thought of the Prince Su who had contacted him, and silently leaned towards the other party in his heart. Perhaps it was time for him to consider finding another wise master.

***

For the next half month, the capital was in turmoil. Although it seemed calm on the surface, in fact, a storm was already brewing.

However, Emperor Xia Xuan was so attracted by Jing Ling that he was confronting her all day long and didn't notice the storm in secret at all.

He also didn't know that Prince Su was frantically stealing from his house, trying to win over civil and military officials, and that Jing Ling was working together with Prince Su outside.

Jing Ling was causing trouble for Emperor Xia Xuan every day, while secretly cooperating with Prince Su.

After repeated screening and consideration, all civil and military officials and royal family members decided that Prince Su Jingqi would be the next new emperor and fully supported his succession to the throne.

They really couldn't stand Emperor Xuan of Xia anymore. He was mentally ill and refused to admit it. Even his own son had turned away from him, but they still held on to him and would execute the entire family at any time!

Which official wants to live with his head on the line, living in fear and anxiety every day!

Which official with ideals, ambitions or even the intention of promotion would not want to follow a clear-headed master? They have suffered from Emperor Xuan of Xia for a long time.

In addition to the changes in the court, Tan Ming went in and out of Yongming Palace every day without fail, and defeated almost all the Yulin troops who blocked his way.

Gradually, no more Yulin soldiers were idle enough to rush up and ask for a fight. They couldn't stop the other party anyway, so what was the point of fighting?

You think you've had enough of living, so you're asking for a fight?! Forget it! His Majesty and His Highness are fighting, so they should just watch.

The Yulin Army is in a mess...

But Emperor Xia Xuan was looking for trouble. Every time he saw Tan Ming entering and leaving Yongming Palace freely, he got angry and directly ordered the secret guards to kill him outside the palace.

In the palace, Jing Ling protects Tan Ming, so don't blame him outside the palace.

But Tan Ming was still intact. Instead, Emperor Xia Xuan's secret guards died one after another, which greatly weakened Emperor Xia Xuan's power, so that Emperor Xia Xuan's supervision of civil and military officials became increasingly weak.

However, within just a few months, Emperor Xia Xuan's power was gradually taken away by Prince Su and Jing Ling, leaving him with only the nominal title of emperor.

Just one more opportunity and Emperor Xuan of Xia would be forced by his ministers and royal family members to abdicate and give way to a wise man.

And this opportunity soon came.
