He listened to the court officials shouting, "Long live the new emperor, long live the new emperor."

He whispered to his father, "I promise you, Father, I won't hurt him."

This more certain answer made the emperor completely relieved.

He left the hall with the former queen, now the empress dowager, without worry.

After the two left.

The ministers continued to kneel and chant, "Long live the new emperor, long live the new emperor."

Xu Jinghuai sat on the throne with the jade seal in his hand.

Next, a decree of amnesty was issued for the entire country.

……

In the capital of Tianze, the atmosphere of triumphant celebration had not yet completely subsided when the new emperor ascended the throne, issued a decree of amnesty and tax reduction for three years, and thus this festive atmosphere continued.

However, amidst this festive atmosphere, there was a hint of darkness, and crises were lurking everywhere around the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis.

There are many unfamiliar faces among them.

Even though the mansion was filled with secret guards and bodyguards, the unfamiliar faces still managed to infiltrate the place gradually.

……

A few days later, in the Kangshou Palace, a villa in Lingxiu City.

The retired emperor and the empress dowager played with birds and chess.

Watching the night gradually deepen in the horizon.

Then he looked inside the palace and saw amber glass lamps lighting up one by one, lighting up the entire night of the palace.

The emperor stood by the highest window and sighed.

The Queen Mother came to him and put a coat on him.

"Your Majesty, please do not worry about your children anymore. Everything is determined by fate. Your Majesty has done what you should do. The rest is up to their own fate."

The Supreme Emperor nodded.

"How could I not know? It's just that I have always had a knot in my heart."

"Your Majesty, are you still worried about not agreeing to Ye'er's marriage?"

"Um……"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Even if she agreed, so what? Your Majesty, you don't know that Yan Yunshu, the granddaughter of Marquis Wen, and Huai'er have been in love since childhood, but Huai'er is shy and has never explained it to Your Majesty."

"Ah?" The emperor looked at the empress dowager in surprise.

The Queen Mother nodded affirmatively at him.

The emperor pondered for a moment and sighed again.

"It turns out to be fate."

"Alright! Now that we have finally put down the heavy burden, we can finally enjoy our old age and live in peace, no longer worrying about state affairs. Why should we continue to worry about it? Let's wait for Huai'er to settle this matter, and then we can wait to hold the emperor's grandson in our arms, that's all."

Speaking of the emperor's grandson, the retired emperor's eyes finally lit up.

"Yuan'er is absolutely right."

Hearing the Grand Emperor calling her by her old nickname, the Queen Mother felt something in her heart and moved towards him.

The two of them looked at the star-like lamp together.

Lingxiu City is beautiful.

Very spiritual.

Even the dark mountains on the horizon appear elegant and beautiful.

Xu Yichen was in his own mansion, looking towards the direction of Tianze Capital.

Counting the days just like in the previous life.

I thought Yan Yunshu would be here in the next few days.

Lingxiu City will once again have a fresh breath of air because of Yan Yunshu's arrival.

And his smile finally revealed the sincerity from the bottom of his heart.

He rubbed the rabbit ornament in his hand again and again, then carefully placed the ornament into a brocade box inlaid with gold threads, and carefully closed the brocade box, his eyes continuing to stay on the brocade box for a long time.

It has always been known that her favorite thing is her pet carrot.

But he had never given away the gift he had personally engraved.

I hope he can in this life.

……

Tianze Capital, the Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

Yan Yunshu lay drowsily on the bed, looking at the cool moon outside the window.

Three days have passed since Xu Jinghuai last came in a hurry.

According to Yingfeng, during these three days, Xu Jinghuai was still unable to sleep day and night, dealing with the mountains of political affairs.

She knew that with the new emperor on the throne, she would be burdened with many issues and would no longer be able to control her own affairs as before.

But she counted the days and it was probably the time when the new emperor of the previous life would ascend the throne and attack Fenglin City.

However, every time she wanted to ask Yingfeng about the situation in Fenglin City, she was always suppressed by the feeling of drowsiness, and either forgot about it or didn't.

She held the glowing spirit bead in her hand and called Xiu Lian.

"Give me another cup of tea to wake me up."

Xiulian agreed and brought the warm tea to Yan Yunshu.

Yan Yunshu stood up, took the tea, took a sip, and handed the tea to Xiulian. Then she got up from the bed, walked to the carved table beside the bed, sat down, took the tea from Xiulian again, and took a big sip.

The aroma of tea filled the air, and her face had a normal blush.

His eyes were still a little blurry.

Xiulian said from the side, "Young lady, why are you so sleepy these days? Do you want me to ask a doctor to see you?"

Yan Yunshu rubbed her temples.

"Okay, let's invite Doctor Lin here tomorrow."

Xiulian agreed and poured a new cup of tea into Yan Yunshu's empty cup.

"But the girl is just sleepy, her complexion is good."

"Ah."

As Yan Yunshu spoke, she drank the freshly poured tea in one gulp.

Look at the cool moonlight again.

He regained some clarity of mind and quickly ordered, "Please ask Yingfeng to come."

Xiulian was stunned for a moment, "Miss, it's getting late."

"It's okay." Yan Yunshu stood up, took the cloak beside her and put it on.

"I'll go outside the yard and wait for him."

"it is good."

Xiulian said this and carefully straightened Yan Yunshu's clothes before leaving.

Yan Yunshu put on her coat and stepped into the watery moonlight in the courtyard.

As night fell, the bright yellow light shone on her beautiful face, soft and hazy, so beautiful that it seemed not to exist in this world.

She looked at the wintersweet tree not far away, which was still growing and had not even buds.

It was as if I saw it breaking in front of me for no reason in my previous life, and a sense of panic came over me.

She looked at the patrolling guards not far away, and then at the several well-camouflaged secret guards on the roof, and breathed a sigh of relief. But for some reason, she still felt uneasy, and hurried back into the house.

He took out the secret whistle from his mouth.

Soon, her own secret guards responded.

"Girl, everything is fine."

"Yeah." But Yan Yunshu still felt uneasy. She asked, "What about other places?"

The secret guard said, "Since the new emperor ascended the throne, there have been many unfamiliar faces in the city. We have been following up on everyone around the Marquis's residence. If there are any unusual movements, we will report them to the young lady immediately."

"it is good."

As soon as Yan Yunshu finished speaking, the secret guard in front of her suddenly fell to the ground.
