The princess is killing like crazy again

The next day was a morning court session, and Wang Fuxuan clearly had no self-control.

But Xiao Yurong still needs to know when to stop.

Xiao Yurong punched Wang Fuxuan's leg in annoyance and said, "Send me back."

"Okay." Wang Fuxuan was very easy to talk to at this moment and seemed to be in a very happy mood.

Wang Fuxuan tidied his own clothes and also tidied everything for Xiao Yurong, even smoothing out the wrinkles on her clothes carefully.

Seeing that Wang Fuxuan was still planning to sit in the wheelchair, Xiao Yurong hit Wang Fuxuan's shoulder again, "You are still planning to do this? Why are you pretending? It's not like you can't walk."

Wang Fuxuan was silent.

It's not that he can't walk. He just hasn't walked for all these years because when he was young he walked too fast and looked like he was limping, which was strange and he was laughed at.

"Let's walk together. Walk with me for a while. It's not far. Okay?" Xiao Yurong softened her voice.

Wang Fuxuan opened his mouth and made an excuse: "My legs hurt."

Xiao Yurong twisted his waist, "Now you know your legs hurt? Why didn't you tell me that your legs hurt just now? Huh?"

When Wang Fuxuan pressed her in front of the bronze mirror just now, she didn't say anything about the pain.

Wang Fuxuan remained silent, but his ears turned slightly red.

"Hurry up! Stand up and follow me, otherwise I will ignore you from now on!" Xiao Yurong stood up and kicked Wang Fuxuan's leg.

To be fair, this was an extremely offensive action, and to Wang Fuxuan it might have been an insult and bullying, but if it was done by Xiao Yurong, it would have had a different meaning.

But he just fell for it.

He was not her husband, not even her friend.

He is one venomous snake and she is another venomous snake.

In this sense, they make themselves very happy.

So Wang Fuxuan slowly stood up and followed Xiao Yurong to the princess's mansion in the dead of night.

"How long has it been since I saw you get up and walk such a long way by yourself?" Xiao Yurong walked leisurely side by side with Wang Fuxuan under the moon.

Wang Fuxuan curled his lips sarcastically, "Isn't it still to accompany you?"

"You can walk well, right? Don't sit in a wheelchair and pretend to be lame every day. Try walking." Xiao Yurong made the decision for Wang Fuxuan, "You need to walk to court tomorrow. Walk slowly so that it won't be noticeable."

Wang Fuxuan pursed his lips and neither agreed nor objected.

Xiao Yurong nudged him with his elbow and said, "Hurry up and agree to it."

"If anyone dares to gossip, I, Your Majesty, will be the first to chop off his head." She put her hands on her hips.

"Yeah." Wang Fuxuan's eyebrows softened a little, "Okay."

Xiao Yurong was satisfied, "That's right."

After walking for a while, Xiao Yurong had another idea, "Carry me on your back."

Wang Fuxuan was speechless. He glanced at Xiao Yurong and said nothing.

Xiao Yurong looked at his back, pondered the meaning of that look for a moment, and then ran towards him.

Xiao Yurong jumped onto his back, knocking him off balance.

Wang Fuxuan didn't say anything. He silently supported Xiao Yurong's legs and continued walking forward with her on his back.

After all, he had a leg injury, so he had difficulty walking and even limped a little under the weight.

"Does it hurt?" Xiao Yurong asked, leaning on his shoulder.

Wang Fuxuan walked slowly, "A little bit."

"Then why don't you put me down?" Xiao Yurong was just joking around.

"No." Wang Fuxuan still moved forward with the heavy load.

Xiao Yurong snorted and smiled into Wang Fuxuan's shoulder, "When I become the emperor, I will let you be the King of Huailing."

"Forget about that." Wang Fuxuan raised the corner of his lips, "How many princes and dukes will there be if you confer titles like this?"

"That's right." Xiao Yurong nodded and swung his legs. "Hurry up, hurry up, I want to go back to sleep. I have to debate with the scholars in the morning court tomorrow."

"Okay, got it. I'll help you." Wang Fuxuan weighed Xiao Yurong up and pulled him up. "Don't move. Be careful not to fall."

He walked forward with Xiao Yurong on his back, stepping on the frosty moonlight.

As expected, even though the Fuyang Guards were sent door to door the night before, there was still a group of people who opposed the court during the morning session.

This time they learned their lesson and no longer said that women could not ascend the throne. Instead, they used high-sounding words to appeal to people's emotions and explain things to them with reason.

For example, let’s start with the fact that Xiao Yuxie’s whereabouts are unknown and his life or death is uncertain.

"Heh." Xiao Yurong laughed out loud while sitting on the dragon throne.

"There are countless people who are conservative, unwilling to make progress, and in office but not doing their job," she said. "There are also many who are corrupt, embezzle, and have low moral standards."

After she finished speaking, Yu Shu walked in from outside the hall with a team of Fuyang Guards from the Mirror Department and the Flower Department, holding in their hands the collected evidence of the opponents' crimes.

Of course, there were also some people who had nothing wrong with them, but they were terrified when they saw this scene.

There are quite a few dignitaries who go in and out of Zhuiyue Pavilion. Once they enter the Zhuiyue Pavilion, their every word and action will be quietly exposed to the eyes of Du Xi and Fuyang Wei.

The Fuyang Guards are well-connected, and many of them will expose their problems in Zhuiyue Pavilion without realizing it.

Even if some people themselves do not have problems, many of their family members and clansmen may have problems.

Every piece of evidence is shocking.

Xiao Yurong leaned back in his chair leisurely, tapping his temple with his fingertips, "My dear ministers, do you want to see if there are any of you or your relatives up there?"

There was complete silence in the hall for a moment.

"Throughout history, there have been countless people with outstanding talents. The throne should be held by those who are capable, not by gender." Xiao Yurong said, "I am both legitimate and capable, so why can't I be the emperor?"

She pinched her chin and said quietly, "The emperor takes turns, and this year it's my turn. The emperor changes, but the family remains."

Hearing this previously widely circulated popular opinion, many court officials were shocked.

"Don't be nervous." Xiao Yurong smiled, "My mother's family is also a noble family."

She sat up straight and said, "It's time for me to become the emperor. You can try to stop it and see if you can do it."

"After all, you tried to stop me from participating in politics, from holding military power, and from wearing a crown and a dragon robe, but you all failed, didn't you?" Her tone was teasing.

"Don't worry, everyone." Xiao Yurong glanced at the people below, "I know very well what I am responsible for. Since my brother passed the throne to me, he also trusts me."

All the horses are silent.

Who could forget?

When they recalled it now, it seemed that Xiao Yurong had faked his death for a year or so, which made them forget how terrifying this man was.

Then look at how many people in the court are her followers, her students and former officials.

Oh, just because she wore the crown and dragon robe and sat on the dragon throne, and there was a madman who burned down the Xiangguo Temple.

They looked at Li Yaozhi, who smiled.

So what difference does it make if Xiao Yurong says he doesn't **?

Anyway, when Xiao Yuxie was in power, it was also the two brothers and sisters who ruled the country.

It's just a legitimate name.

Xiao Yurong stood up and said in a loud voice: "I will definitely live up to my brother's trust, put the country and the people first, and work diligently to ensure long-term peace and stability, and seek the well-being of the country and the people."

"Your Majesty is wise." Li Yaozhi lifted his robe and knelt down to salute.

"Long live His Majesty." Then all the ministers knelt on the ground.

Xiao Yurong was satisfied.

"In this case, if everyone has no objection, the coronation ceremony will be held in a week." Xiao Yurong made the final decision.

The ministers looked at each other and answered, "Yes."

*

The ceremonial music was played and the sheng and drums sounded.

On the day of his enthronement, the sun shrouded the majestic palace like a golden veil, and the grand and majestic sounds of ceremonial music spread throughout the court.

A long blood-red carpet was laid out from the palace gate at one end, climbing over the long steps, stretching endlessly.

Xiao Yurong was wearing a yellow robe with golden and red auspicious dragon and phoenix patterns spreading up from the corners of the robe and sleeves. He looked majestic and bright, graceful and beautiful.

She wore a crown with twelve tassels on her head and climbed the stairs step by step.

Flags were flying, carriage bells were ringing, horse bridles were shining, and princes and ministers came to meet the new king.

Zai saw King Pi and said, "Seek your chapter." The dragon flag is waving, and the bells are ringing. There are crows on the ding, and there is a fierce light on the rest.

The ceremonial officer held the imperial edict in both hands and read out the enthronement decree in a loud voice.

When the imperial seal was held in front of Xiao Yurong and the box was opened, the ceremonial officer's eyes almost popped out.

Xiao Yurong paused for a moment and saw the ceremonial officer's shaking hands suddenly close the box, force a smile, and present the box containing the imperial seal to Xiao Yurong.

Xiao Yurong's heart paused, realizing that the jade seal was probably missing.

The ceremonial officer is trying to maintain the ceremony and the occasion.

"and many more!"

Xiao Yurong lowered his eyes and looked down, and saw someone holding a knife and a bundle emerging from the crowd.

When did he sneak in? Who is this capable person who is not happy with her ascending the throne? Xiao Yurong narrowed his eyes.

Yu Shu's face changed drastically, and the Fuyang guards were about to capture the man immediately.

This was a great day for the master, but such a mistake happened.

"Wait." Xiao Yurong raised his hand, "Let him come forward."

"Princess..." Yu Shu said nervously.

Xiao Yurong had told them before that they didn't need to change their names and should just keep using them as before.

She is still attached to her old friends because she is reluctant to part with them.

"Let him come up." Xiao Yurong repeated.

She stood in the middle of the long staircase, with a section of stairs left to climb.

She and Xiao Yuxie once walked this path together, but now she is alone and faces so many obstacles.

Yu Shu glanced at the man with a murderous look and took a step back.

The man stepped forward and opened the bundle, revealing the national seal.

Xiao Yurong glanced at the ceremonial officer, who was sweating profusely and kept wiping his sweat.

He was supposed to be the one taking good care of the seal, who knew it would be stolen at such a critical moment?

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yurong asked.

The man replied: "You are not worthy of this jade."

Xiao Yurong raised his eyebrows, "Do you have any grudge against me?"

"No hatred or grudge." He replied.

"Then why did you stop me?" Xiao Yurong asked again.

The man said righteously: "I came here for Chu Le and the people."

He accused: "You are tyrannical and cruel, killing innocent people indiscriminately, even your relatives are not spared. You are extravagant and build large-scale projects. You are warlike and aggressive, and you go to war everywhere. If you become an emperor, Chu Le will never be at peace!"

"A general's success is built on the sacrifice of thousands of lives. Success is the king and failure is the bandit. Which prince on this road doesn't have blood on his hands? I killed him, he killed me. Those who use swords cannot complain even if they are attacked by swords." Xiao Yurong lowered his eyes coldly, "You hold a sword in your hand, don't you know this truth?"

She narrowed her eyes, "If I don't become an emperor, will the world be peaceful? With a sharp blade in hand, power is boundless, and heroes rise up to fight for the world."

"Instead of this endless chaos, it would be better for me to unify the world." She spread her hands and fluttered her sleeves.

The man continued, "You are only a woman after all, you cannot rule Yujing. This world is ultimately a man's world. It is unheard of for a woman to be an emperor."

"I will say these words even if you kill me." He tilted his neck and spoke passionately.

"Ha——" Xiao Yurong laughed out loud, "So that's how it is. He is an unknown person who desperately wants to leave a name in the world but has no way to do so, so he came to me to seek fame and reputation by dying."

"You!" The man blushed and raised the jade seal in his hand. "Even if you are eloquent, you can't change the facts. Your rule will only be like this jade seal."

The Fuyang Guards acted decisively and, with Yu Shu at the forefront, rushed towards the man from all directions to seize the national seal.

The jade seal fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Hahahahahaha! How can it be legitimate without the national seal?" The man threw his head back and laughed.

"You!" Yu Shu's eyes turned red and he was about to raise his sword to chop him.

"Yushu." Xiao Yurong stopped him.

Yu Shu stopped abruptly and knelt on the ground, "Princess, please forgive me, I am incompetent..."

"Heh." Xiao Yurong sneered.

She took a step forward. "Is it a piece of cold jade that allows me to stand here? With this piece of jade, can I establish the Fuyang Guard, open a girls' school, recruit female officials, kill King Wen, and put down the rebellion?"

"My father and brothers have taken good care of me. Because of them, because of my relatives, because of my staff, because of all the people who support me, and because of myself, I can stand here." She lowered her eyes calmly, yet her majesty was evident.

Xiao Yurong said: "Without that piece of jade, I can still rule the world!"

Really loud.

Her words were as shocking as her death.

"If you want to leave your name in the world, I will let you leave your name in the world." Xiao Yurong raised the corner of his lips slightly.

She glanced at Yushu, "Yushu."

"Yes!" Yu Shu, who was kneeling on one side, stood up and raised his hand.

The Fuyang Guards nearby immediately stepped forward, detained the man, and dragged him away.

"You kneel at the gate of Yujing City, kneeling in front of the people coming in and out. Your name and crimes will be tattooed on your face, and everyone who comes in and out of Yujing will know your name until you turn into a pile of bones." Xiao Yurong said.

"No! No! You kill me! Xiao Yurong, you kill me!" The man struggled and roared, but to no avail.

He was dragged by the Fuyang Guards past the ministers standing in line around him. All the ministers lowered their heads silently and reduced their presence.

Xiao Yurong curled his lips and said, "Make another jade seal. It should have not only a dragon, but also a phoenix. The seal should have a dragon, fish, phoenix, bird, chi, and tiger. It is a mandate from heaven, and it will bring longevity and prosperity."

"Yes." Someone responded immediately.

"Report--" A Fuyang guard walked quickly forward from behind the crowd.
