Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered

Chapter 48 World 1: The Domineering Emperor’s Pet (46)

Zhou Jin was in a terrible state, even his breathing became rapid. He wanted to call out to Zhou Changling at the top of his voice, but he didn't expect that the loudest voice he could hear sounded more like the sound of a mosquito, extremely weak.

However, because Zhou Changling was always paying attention to Zhou Jin, he was able to keenly catch Zhou Jin's voice.

Father is awake!

Zhou Changling stopped walking and returned to Zhou Jin's bedside.

Zhou Changling: "Father! Who has harmed you?"

Zhou Changling: "My son will avenge you!"

Zhou Jin opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but it was extremely difficult.

Zhou Changling hurriedly put his ear close to Zhou Jin's mouth and heard Zhou Jin's panting words.

Zhou Jin: "My son, huh - I pass the throne to you."

Zhou Jin: "You must take good care of this country."

Zhou Jin: "The culprits are the Queen Mother and the Empress. I have already... cough cough..."

Zhou Jin: "Execute them - huh - huh."

Zhou Jin: "Don't make things difficult for Bai Shi. Bai Shi is pregnant with my son."

Zhou Jin: "I want you to swear!"

Zhou Jin's voice was intermittent, but Zhou Changling listened very carefully. He wrote down everything, but when he heard the last one, his eyes darkened.

Zhou Changling: "Father! I."

Zhou Changling wanted to tell him that he would not make things difficult for Bai, but wanted to take her for himself. However, when he saw Zhou Jin's stubborn eyes staring at him so intently, Zhou Changling finally swallowed the words in his mouth.

Zhou Changling spoke each word with emphasis: "I, Zhou Changling, swear to heaven today that I will not embarrass the daughter of the Bai family, nor will I bully the Bai family."

Zhou Changling saw a look of satisfaction in Zhou Jin's eyes, knowing that he was not angry to death, so he felt relieved.

Zhou Jin: "Call the ministers."

Zhou Jin closed his eyes after he finished speaking, and Zhou Changling knew that he was holding on to his last breath.

Zhou Changling opened the door of Taiji Hall and found that Li Mu and all the ministers were kneeling in unison at the door.

Zhou Changling: "Everyone, please come in. My father has summoned you."

Zhou Changling looked grief-stricken. When the ministers first arrived, they didn't know what was going on, but after seeing King Jing's expression, they now understood a little.

Zhou Changling knew that those who came at this time were all loyal ministers who had been investigated by his father. He walked with heavy steps. It turned out that he had long missed the time when his father was most vulnerable, while his father had exhausted all his energy and shouldered everything alone.

General Mu: "Your Majesty!"

Minister Bai: "Your Majesty!"

Other courtiers: "Your Majesty!"

Zhou Jin forced himself to open his eyes and pointed at the night pearl on the bedside table. The others understood what he meant, but Li Mu pressed it with a shrewd look.

Sure enough, the Night Pearl was a mechanism. A box popped out, and inside were two imperial edicts. Everyone then understood what it meant.

Li Mu took the imperial edict and announced it under Zhou Jin's approving gaze.

Li Mu: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims that the Seventh Prince Zhou Changling is gifted with talent, intelligence and erudition, and is capable of taking on great responsibilities. I am very relieved and now pass the throne to the Seventh Prince Zhou Changling, hoping that he can build the country and protect the foundation of our ancestors."

Zhou Jin: "I hope the important officials will protect my son and teach him."

Zhou Jin widened his eyes and asked all the court officials to speak every word as clearly as possible. Zhou Changling's eyes were red, he did not expect Zhou Jin to protect him so much.

The court officials expressed their loyalty one after another and stated that they would assist His Royal Highness Prince Jing.

However, Zhou Jin did not let them continue talking. He motioned Li Mu to open another imperial edict. After all, Li Mu was an old man serving the emperor, so he quickly understood the meaning.

This imperial decree conferred the title of King An on the dragon fetus in Bai Lingxi's belly, regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl. The emperor also granted the wealthy land in the south of the Yangtze River as his fiefdom and allowed him to have 10,000 soldiers.

As soon as Li Mu finished speaking, everyone looked at Zhou Changling, wanting to see the new emperor's reaction.

However, Zhou Changling did not complain at all. He kowtowed to Zhou Jin willingly, indicating that he would do as he was told and would never go back on his word.

Seeing that the new emperor Zhou Changling had no objection, others naturally would not raise any objections either.

Minister Bai, Bai Lingxi's father, who was kneeling on the ground, was even more ecstatic. He had not expected that his daughter would have such good fortune. With the promise from the new emperor, nothing would go wrong and she would enjoy wealth and glory and a smooth and happy life.

Zhou Jin looked at Zhou Changling and saw that he agreed. Then he closed his eyes with satisfaction and fell asleep forever.

Zhou Changling: "Father!"

Zhou Changling's face was filled with grief and heaviness. The era of Zhou Jin had come to an end...

Prince Jing's Mansion.

Zhao Xueqi: "What did you say? The emperor has passed away!"

Zhao Xueqi suddenly stood up and walked around the room excitedly. She was so happy that she didn't expect that she could move into the palace not long after getting married.

Wouldn't it be that I would soon be the mother of the country?

Xiao Cui: "Congratulations, Master! Congratulations, Master!"

Xiao Cui: "From now on, the princess will be the most noble woman in the world."

Zhao Xueqi was very pleased with these compliments. It seemed that the dream was not a lie. The emperor had indeed passed away, and she would soon become the mother of the country.

Zhao Xueqi suddenly thought of something and said to Xiao Cui, "Go and see if Grandpa is back."

Xiao Cui: "Okay, Princess."

Xiao Cui left in a hurry, but came back soon.

Xiao Cui: "Princess, the prince has not returned yet, but he just ran into Manager Li. He asked us to put away all the brightly colored clothes and decorations, wear plain clothes as much as possible, and stay in the house as much as possible."

However, Zhao Xueqi felt that her dignity was challenged. She was clearly the mistress of the palace and would be the ruler of the world in the future, but now she was being dominated by a small steward. She felt a strong sense of resentment.

Zhao Xueqi: "Let's go find Manager Li. After all, I am in charge of the affairs of the palace."

Zhao Xueqi: "Now is the time for me, the princess, to take charge of the situation."

There was tenderness in Zhao Xueqi's tone, and if you listened carefully you could hear a hint of excitement, but the look in her eyes was very creepy. Xiao Cui was so scared that she quickly lowered her head, not daring to look up.

Palace.

Rows of palaces with carved beams and painted buildings are picturesque and complement each other, as if all the beautiful things are here.

Bai Lingxi seemed to be asleep, but she was actually talking to Xiao Qi.

Bai Lingxi: "Brother Xiaoqi, can I use my spiritual power to save Zhou Jin now?"

The system has told Bai Lingxi that Zhou Jin has passed away, which makes Bai Lingxi suddenly energetic. Her voice is so sweet that Xiao Qi can't help but laugh when he hears it.

System: "You can now remove the spiritual power. When you see Zhou Jin's body, put the condensed spiritual power on him to nourish him."

System: "But you have to think carefully. After all, this will make you unable to protect yourself."

System: "And it's not just this world, it will be the same in the small worlds to come."

System Xiaoqi knew that Bai Lingxi was a stubborn spirit rabbit, but still wanted to dissuade her from the idea. After all, if she had no spiritual power, the host of the small world would suffer a lot in the future.

Bai Lingxi: "I've thought about it, Brother Xiaoqi, don't worry."

Bai Lingxi comforted the system. She was not an ungrateful person and knew that the system was worried about her. However, after the tests and experiences in the small world, she also knew what feelings were and what kind of people were worthy.
