After rebirth, the abstinent prince wants to marry me every day

The situation in Xuanlong Kingdom has changed!

Fortunately, things are getting better!

Although the previous emperor had sons, they were mediocre in talent and unable to shoulder important responsibilities. Therefore, all the civil and military officials knelt outside the hall and petitioned the Queen Mother to allow King Zhongyi to ascend the throne.

This is a situation that has never occurred in history. You must know that since the founding of Xuanlong Kingdom, it has always been the prince who ascended the throne, and bloodline is particularly important.

It's not just the Xuanlong Kingdom. Every dynasty has a hereditary system. The father passes the throne to his son or grandson. There has never been a precedent of inheritance by other bloodlines.

The empress dowager only considered it for a day before nodding in agreement. No one in the court, whether civil or military, stood up to object, and even the censors who usually reviewed the matter praised it highly.

After all, the court had been completely cleared of all the former henchmen of His Majesty. Perhaps there were still some who slipped through the net, but now that the situation was set, it was natural to go with the flow.

King Zhongyi has always had great military achievements, and his reputation in Xuanlong Kingdom has been even more famous than that of the emperor in recent years. The people call him the guardian god of war.

When Bian Jingsheng ascended the throne, he did not hold a grand coronation ceremony. Now that he had just experienced a palace coup, Bian Jingsheng kept everything simple.

But what no one expected was that on the day Bian Jingsheng ascended the throne, he actually placed a phoenix throne that was equally golden next to the dragon throne, which symbolized power and status, and he even personally helped the empress dowager sit on the chair.

"This..." The civil and military officials below were shocked.

The wives and daughters of the noble families who came to attend the coronation ceremony were also puzzled. Only Zhu Qing'an looked up at the top of the hall. She understood what Bian Jingsheng intended to do.

At that moment, she was proud of Bian Jingsheng and was also moved by his broad mind.

"Your Majesty?" An official stood up in confusion. You know, although the empress dowager once controlled the government and even governed the Xuanlong Kingdom together with the late emperor when he was still alive, from the beginning to the end, the empress dowager could only be confined behind a pearl curtain at the back of the hall.

It was shocking that a woman was in control of government affairs. All the ministers thought that the first thing that Prince Zhongyi would do after ascending the throne was to take back the power from the Queen Mother. However, they did not expect that Prince Zhongyi... no, now he should be called the new emperor, would actually support the Queen Mother next to the dragon throne. You know, this has never happened before.

"Your Majesty!" The Queen Mother secretly cast a disapproving look at Bian Jingsheng.

She never coveted power. She once held on to power only to protect her family and because she was not confident in the emperor's ability.

Now that Bian Jingsheng has ascended the throne, the Queen Mother is willing to hand over all power to him.

Today the Queen Mother came to attend the registration ceremony, and she had no idea that Bian Jingsheng had such plans.

"The Empress Dowager is my mentor. Her talent and strategy are superior to mine. Over the years, she has worked for the benefit of Xuanlong Country and eradicated the domestic pests and rotten ants! Today, I ascend the throne and grant the Empress Dowager the same power as me, so that she can take charge of the government!" Bian Jingsheng announced solemnly.

He was not acting on impulse, but he knew too well how advanced the Queen Mother's strategy was, and even he could not match it.

"Your Majesty, what you said is true, but the Queen Mother is a woman after all!" A civil official stood up.

"So what if you are a woman? You are not even as good as a woman. This is a fact! Or can anyone among you stand up and say that you are more talented and knowledgeable than the Empress Dowager?" Bian Jingsheng looked at the densely packed civil and military officials and asked, his tone full of pressure.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone lowered their heads involuntarily.

They looked down on women, but had to admit that the Queen Mother was smart.

"Aunt Yao! Please!" Seeing that no one objected, Bian Jingsheng helped the empress dowager to sit down, and then sat on the dragon throne himself.

This was also the first time that the empress dowager sat in such a high position. Before, she made plans for the late emperor, but was placed in the harem.

After the late emperor passed away, she did control the government for a while, but at that time she could only stand in the dark corner of the hall behind the pearl curtain, as if she could not stand in the light.

But now, she can sit here openly. She is not happy for herself, but for all the women in Xuanlong Kingdom in the future.

With her precedent, the status of women in Xuanlong Kingdom will only become higher and higher in the future, and more and more women's consciousness will be awakened.

Perhaps many years later, there will be a woman in Xuanlong Kingdom who can stand in the court again. She will be the first one, but definitely not the only one.

Zhu Qing'an looked at her aunt sitting next to the dragon throne and couldn't help crying. Her second sister handed her a handkerchief. Zhu Qing'an took it and quickly wiped her tears. Today was a good day and she couldn't cry.

"Eldest sister..."

"It's okay, I'm just too happy!" Zhu Qing'an said softly. She knew better than anyone how much her aunt had contributed to the Xuanlong Kingdom, and now her aunt's efforts were seen and recognized by others. Her aunt no longer had to hide behind a man. Her aunt deserved to be in this position now.

When she was a child, what she saw most often was her aunt hunched over the desk all day and all night, looking at piles of memorials.

My aunt racked her brains and argued just to seek benefits for the people of Xuanlong Country, even if she could not get any benefit from it.

Even for the girls from Xuanlong Country, my aunt paid for it out of her own pocket and took great pains to build a school for them so that they could study and go out of their small courtyard.

In Zhu Qing'an's heart, her aunt was undoubtedly a very great person.

Now that Bian Jingsheng has ascended the throne and given his aunt enough respect and rights, his aunt will be able to do more, and the people of Xuanlong Kingdom will be happier.

Even though the registration ceremony was kept simple and without any luxury under Bian Jingsheng's order, it was still complicated and detailed.

Everyone was alert and didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, for fear of accidentally displeasing the new emperor.

Only Zhu Qing'an felt bored and uncomfortable. She was now a double-bodied person, and she had been standing here in the cold wind for a long time, and her legs and feet were a little numb.

Even though her second sister and third brother were always supporting her and even hid cakes in her clothes to satisfy her cravings, Zhu Qing'an still felt extremely miserable.

At this moment, a figure came silently behind Zhu Qing'an.

"Qing'an, come with me!" At some point, Zhong Yi came behind Zhu Qing'an and signaled Zhu Qing'an to leave quietly first.

Zhu Qing'an seemed to have sensed something. She glanced at Bian Jingsheng who was standing high up, and at this moment Bian Jingsheng's gaze was passing through the crowd and falling on her.

Even at this moment, Bian Jingsheng was still paying attention to her.

Zhu Qing'an chuckled, then bent slightly and left with Zhong Yi. Not everyone noticed Zhu Qing'an's departure, as it was an act of great rebellion, but no one dared to say anything.

After all, Zhu Qing'an is pregnant with the only child of the new emperor. Everyone knows that she will probably be the first concubine to be appointed by the new emperor, so no one dares to offend her.

Zhong Yi supported Zhu Qing'an and came to the harem. Compared with the previous harem with countless concubines, the current harem was extremely quiet.

"Your Majesty... Look at my mouth, I can never change it! When His Majesty ascended the throne, all the concubines in the harem, with or without official titles, were dismissed! For those who wanted to leave, His Majesty gave them some money to send them out of the palace. For those who had nowhere to go or were abandoned by their families, His Majesty sent them to temples outside the palace for meditation, to ensure that they could live the rest of their lives without worries!" Zhong Yi said as he walked, his tone full of melancholy.

"Jingsheng's move is correct. Many of those women were forced into it!" Zhu Qing'an agreed with Bian Jingsheng's actions.

"That's right. Those women originally thought that they would be buried with the late emperor, but they didn't expect that they could actually leave the harem. They cried for joy one by one. You don't know how cruel the late emperor was. There are even children in the harem. When we asked, we found out that they were only about ten years old!" Zhong Yi said indignantly.

At that time, the new emperor handed this matter over to Zhong Yi. She was so angry that she really wanted to drag out the late emperor and whip his corpse.

"Fortunately, it's all over!" Zhu Qing'an also found it unbelievable, but felt more disappointed.

Zhong Yi arranged Zhu Qing'an in the new emperor's bedroom, and the palace servants serving her at this time were extremely respectful to Zhu Qing'an.

Zhu Qing'an looked at the emperor's bedroom, which was also Bian Jingsheng's bedroom. Thinking that Bian Jingsheng would be the emperor of Xuanlong Kingdom in the future, everything seemed like a dream.

Because Bian Jingsheng ascended the throne in a hurry, the bedroom remained the same as before, appearing particularly luxurious and exquisite.

"The Minister of Works previously asked His Majesty if he wanted to renovate all the bedrooms, but His Majesty refused, saying he didn't want to waste money!" Zhong Yi helped Zhu Qing'an sit down, then casually sat beside her, leaning in close and saying, "But I overheard that His Majesty asked the Minister of Works to renovate the innermost room, and from what I saw, his instructions seemed to suit your preferences!"

Zhu Qing'an didn't expect that Bian Jingsheng actually had such a plan.

Every time a new emperor ascends the throne, he seems to go to great lengths to rebuild the palace. However, Zhu Qing'an and Bian Jingsheng have the same idea on this matter.

The national treasury has been almost squandered. There is no need to waste money and manpower at this time. The bedroom is already in good condition and there is nothing to renovate.

"Qing'an, it seems that you will be the master of the harem soon. If I want to see you then, it will be very troublesome!" Zhong Yi took two pieces of cake, handed one to Zhu Qing'an, and stuffed the other into his mouth.

Zhong Yi really liked Zhu Qing'an, and they got along well. She felt that if Zhu Qing'an entered the palace, she would lose a friend she could talk to, which would make her feel much lonelier. The ladies from Ancheng also looked down on her, so she had no interest in being friends with them.

Zhu Qing'an's eyes flashed, and it was almost a foregone conclusion that she would enter the palace.

Even Bian Jingsheng once asked himself whether the coronation ceremony and the queen-crowned ceremony should be held together. He wanted to welcome Zhu Qing'an into the palace as soon as possible and also let the world know his admiration for Zhu Qing'an.

However, this matter was unanimously rejected by Zhu Qing'an and the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother felt that if the ceremony of crowning the Queen was held together with the ceremony of ascending the throne, it would be too hasty and the ceremony of ascending the throne would be full of instability and danger.

Zhu Qing'an felt that she didn't care about the queen's coronation ceremony. She was now six months pregnant. Although the fetus was in a stable position, she always cared about herself. The queen's coronation ceremony was very busy, and she didn't want to be busy, and she didn't want to put her child in any danger.

"Don't worry, no matter who I am, we are friends, right? You can come and see me anytime you want! Besides, I hope you can teach the child martial arts!" Zhu Qing'an said, reaching out and gently stroking her bulging belly.

"Is this true? Are you kidding me?" Zhong Yi was so happy that he was at a loss for words. He muttered to himself, "Your Majesty is a master of martial arts, and so is Old Madam Bian. I thought it would never be my turn!"

In fact, Zhong Yi really wants to teach her children something.

After all, Yang Chaoyan is the child's godmother and will teach the child medical skills in the future.

The fifth princess had already made an appointment, and she would personally teach the child the etiquette and rules in the future.

It’s Zhu Baiwei, the child’s aunt. She’s the only one who’s careless and can’t show off anything except her martial arts.

"I'm afraid Jingsheng will be very busy in the future. As for the old lady, she is old after all, so she will naturally need your care!" Zhu Qing'an comforted.

In Zhu Qing'an's opinion, Zhong Yi's temperament is undoubtedly outstanding. It is an extremely remarkable thing in itself that a woman can break the prejudice and become a female general.

"Don't worry, I will definitely teach the child well!" Zhong Yi patted his chest and promised.

At this moment, they heard the sound of palace maids bowing. Zhu Qing'an and Zhong Yi stood up and saw Old Madam Bian walking in with warm goat milk.

"Sit down quickly!" Old Lady Bian hurriedly helped Zhu Qing'an sit down.

Although Bian Jingsheng is now the emperor, Mrs. Bian's status remains the same as before, even though the empress dowager intends for Bian Jingsheng to confer the title of empress dowager on his mother.

But Old Lady Bian herself did not want to do so. She loved her husband deeply, and now that her son had ascended the throne, she still wanted to be the wife of the King of Loyalty.

What's more, Madam Bian doesn't care about false reputation, and she doesn't like the complicated rules of the palace.

Seeing that Old Lady Bian was so persistent, the Queen Mother naturally let her do what she wanted. But even though Old Lady Bian had not been given a title, she was the biological mother of the new emperor, and who would dare to disrespect her?

"Aunt Xu, did you hear that? Qing'an asked me to teach this child martial arts from now on!" Zhong Yi raised his eyebrows excitedly, his words full of pride.

Old Madam Bian watched Zhu Qing'an drink the goat milk, and then said, "It's natural! I taught you martial arts, and as my grandson, you should also contribute your strength!"

Zhong Yi didn't expect that Mrs. Bian also agreed, and the worry in his heart disappeared.

Originally, Zhong Yi had been worried for a long time. She felt that if Bian Jing, who grew up with her like a brother, became emperor, everything would change and he would become the person she looked up to.

But now she realized that no matter how their identities had changed, the friendship they had felt over the years had not changed, and she had been worrying too much.

"Mr. Song has been appointed Prime Minister now... You two should live a good life! I will take care of your marriage. You are like my own daughter in my heart, so you should marry from the Prince of Loyalty's Mansion!" Old Lady Bian instructed.

Song Nian was appointed prime minister because of his outstanding wisdom and the advice he provided to Bian Jingsheng over the years.

Even though she liked it, her eyes couldn't help but become moist after listening to what Old Lady Bian said.
