Crazy and bad again, the princess is the best in Beijing

Chapter 402 Ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor

When Shi Yunxiu asked her if she wanted to be the empress, she tried to think about it and felt it was a bit troublesome.

However, Emperor Qianyuan's sons all had bad character. If she wanted to live a good life, becoming an empress seemed to be the best outcome.

But she had only thought about this casually before, and she didn't expect...

She gently pulled Emperor Qianyuan's sleeve and said, "Uncle, why don't you think about it again?"

Emperor Qianyuan wanted to laugh when he heard her words, but he couldn't laugh and directly spat out blood.

Shi Wanwan looked at him with some worry. She was a doctor and knew his physical condition best. He didn't have much time left.

She used a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of Emperor Qianyuan's mouth. He whispered, "In my life, I always like to be safe and sound in everything."

"Wanwan, please let me be impulsive just this once!"

Shi Wanwan's eyes were red. Emperor Qianyuan looked at Xie Xuanzhi again and said softly, "Xuanzhi, assist Wanwan well."

Xie Xuanzhi nodded. Emperor Qianyuan looked at him, hesitant to speak, and finally said, "I'm sorry."

Xie Xuanzhi looked at him, their eyes met, and everything was said without words.

Xie Xuanzhi said softly, "Wanwan cured me. I am fine now. What happened is over."

Emperor Qianyuan nodded slightly, tears of regret in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and Xie Xuanzhi held his hand.

He coughed lightly and took a deep breath. "That's good. Take good care of Wanwan for me from now on."

Xie Xuanzhi nodded: "I love Wanwan. As long as I am alive, I will not let anyone bully Wanwan."

Emperor Qianyuan felt relieved when he heard this: "Okay..."

His eyes slowly closed and his breath gradually died.

Shi Wanwan sat beside him and felt his pulse gradually disappear.

Although she had resentment towards Emperor Qianyuan and blamed him for being too cruel, after she traveled through time, her life would be very difficult without him.

She never expected that he would pass the throne to her before his death.

She sniffed lightly, her eyes red, and whispered: "Uncle, I won't let you down!"

The funeral bells in the palace rang for forty-five years. Emperor Qianyuan passed away and the whole country was in great sorrow.

Tian Huaijue and others heard the bell outside the palace and looked towards the direction of the palace.

When Shi Yunxiu heard the bell, he let out a long sigh.

He avenged himself many years ago in his own way, but he wasn't very happy now.

Because he knew that Shi Wanwan would be sad for Emperor Qianyuan.

He could finally let go of the grudge that had plagued them for nearly twenty years.

The guards who followed Shi Wanwan into the palace had reported to him what happened in the palace. He knew that Emperor Qianyuan passed the throne to Shi Wanwan before his death.

Shi Yunxiu did not comment on Emperor Qianyuan's decision.

He could vaguely guess the motive behind Emperor Qianyuan's actions, and he also knew the guilt he felt.

But guilt is useless in Shi Yunxiu's opinion.

In Shi Yunxiu's opinion, Emperor Qianyuan had been a coward all his life, and now he finally made a decisive move.

At this moment, he let go of all his hatred for Emperor Qianyuan.

Three days later, Shi Wanwan ascended the throne and became emperor.

When this news left the palace, the whole capital was shocked.

The ministers who did not enter the palace that day had many doubts in their minds, but those doubts were quickly suppressed.

Because there were many ministers who entered the palace that day and witnessed the entire process of Emperor Qianyuan passing the throne to Shi Wanwan.

Shi Wanwan was born to Princess Changping and had royal blood. The Tang Dynasty had produced several empresses, so even if they had any opinions, they could accept them.

However, the princes and princesses were very dissatisfied with this matter:

One of them was supposed to inherit the throne.

They thought Zhao Zhongze was plotting rebellion, so this position should be theirs.

They could not understand Emperor Qianyuan's thoughts. They could not accept the result that the kingdom was not passed on to his own children but to others.

The night before Shi Wanwan ascended the throne, they ran to the palace to cause trouble for her.

Xie Xuanzhi had been busy these days maintaining public order in the capital and the imperial city. When they came to cause trouble, he didn't say a word and just had them taken to a side hall.

When they first went in, they were still cursing and swearing, but when they came out, they were like deflated balls and didn't dare to say anything more.

Shi Wanwan knew what kind of people they were. She asked Xie Xuanzhi, "What did you do to them?"

Xie Xuanzhi replied: "It's nothing, really. Your Majesty didn't teach them well. Now that he's gone, I'll teach them how to behave."

"They didn't have a clear understanding of themselves before, but they have it after today."

Shi Wanwan found it a little funny when she heard this.

She still remembered the sharpness of his murderous aura when she first met him.

She had also seen his methods. He was not as gentle in front of outsiders as he was with her.

She chuckled softly: "Indeed, you helped them to recognize themselves. They will thank you in the future."

Xie Xuanzhi chuckled when he heard this, but said, "Their identities are special, so they can't be killed. Keeping them will eventually cause hidden dangers."

"Do you have any ideas about what to do with them?"

Shi Wanwan replied, "The King of Dongyue came to the palace early this morning, and I had a few words with him."

"He has a suggestion that I think is very good. We can try it."

These days, Shi Yunxiu has been helping to deal with some things outside the palace.

However, due to his special status, he was not suitable to interfere in the internal affairs of the Tang Dynasty, so he only did some manual work.

When he entered the palace early this morning, he chatted with Shi Wanwan for about an hour.

His words can be summed up as follows:

He only has one daughter, Shi Wanwan. Sooner or later, the kingdom of Dongyue will be handed over to her, and the Tang Dynasty and Dongyue will definitely merge.

In this situation, for the Tang Dynasty, it expanded its territory, and the same was true for Dongyue.

There will be voices of opposition in the court, but there will also be many people who support it.

Although this situation is special, it is essentially a good thing.

After the merger of Datang and Dongyue, they became one country.

In this situation, if Shi Wanwan enfeoffed Emperor Qianyuan's children to Dongyue, she would be able to suppress them and give an explanation to the people of the world.

After hearing what Shi Yunxiu said, Shi Wanwan felt that he was worthy of being a person who had been immersed in the circle of power since childhood. This trick was really harmful and useful.

After Xie Xuanzhi heard what Shi Wanwan said, the corner of his mouth twitched: "Father-in-law is still amazing!"

"His method should be the best way to deal with them. You can also give an explanation to His Majesty."

Shi Wanwan nodded: "I think so too. I praised him at the time."

Xie Xuanzhi could imagine how she would praise Shi Yunxiu, and he couldn't help laughing.

Shi Wanwan continued, "I will ascend the throne tomorrow. I have already told the Ministry of Rites that the coronation ceremony and the wedding will be held together."
