Quick Transmigration: Saving That Cannon Fodder

Rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs were thrown at her. Moran had never been so disheveled, much less in pain.

It all felt like a nightmare, coming too fast and too painful, making it impossible for her to accept the reality she was in.

This time, the execution was personally overseen by Emperor Chixing, and no one dared to try to stop the prison cart, let alone plead for mercy.

The ministers were all in a state of fear, afraid that they would become the next Mo family.

After the execution, Chi Xing noticed that Mu Zeyu's hand, which was holding his, was slightly sweaty, so Chi Xing patted the back of his hand reassuringly.

"Don't worry, Ayu, nothing will happen."

Back at the palace, Mu Zeyu was also absent-minded, as if he had been shocked by Mo Lanshan's words.

At night, he couldn't help but ask, "Stars, what is time travel?"

"You don't have to say if you don't want to. I just want to know if you will disappear and go back to your original world?"

Chixing's inner thoughts say that he is not the original emperor, so he comes from another world. Moranshan says that they come from the same place. What is that place? Will Xingxing go back?

Mu Zeyu had no choice but to face these questions. He tightened his grip on Chi Xing's arm, not wanting to hear any bad answers.

"So, you've been thinking about this all afternoon?" Akahoshi enjoyed the way he cared about her; Ayu was just too adorable.

Mu Zeyu looked at him with a bewildered gaze, like a kitten longing for a beautiful gift.

How could Akahoshi bear to give an answer he didn't want? He said:

"I came here for Ayu, so naturally I will stay with Ayu forever. Wherever Ayu goes, I will go."

Having received this reply, Mu Zeyu pressed her forehead against his cheek and whispered, "Thank you, Xingxing."

Spring has arrived once again.

Mu Zeyu got up early as usual, but this time it wasn't to attend the morning court session.

Today is the day he married Akahoshi.

The story dates back to half a month ago when Chixing suddenly had an imperial edict read aloud in the court, announcing her marriage to the Regent.

The ministers were first stunned and shocked, then puzzled, and finally voiced various objections.

Mu Zeyu didn't go that day; he only found out later from an official he knew.

That was the first time they had seen Akahoshi lose his temper and directly behead the minister who had offered advice.

That person used to be close to the Mo family, but after the Mo family ran into trouble, he kept a low profile for a while.

He made this move to be the first to act for his daughter's sake; the allure of the empress's position is strong, and who wouldn't want it?

He was the one who spoke out against Mu Zeyu, and he was immediately beheaded by Chi Xing.

Later, some people still didn't believe it and thought that this was just Akahoshi making an example of someone. However, before they could say much, they were also killed by Akahoshi.

The tyrannical emperor executed two ministers in order to marry a male empress.

Everyone was angry but dared not speak out. They had elderly and young families to support, and it wasn't worth risking their entire families' lives for the sake of the royal family.

Akahoshi sheathed his sword and continued to speak to everyone with a smile:

"Since none of you have any objections, then in half a month, it will be the day of my wedding with the Regent. In addition, I plan to adopt a child from the imperial clan. What do you all think?"

Ministers:...

This is like slapping someone and then giving them a sweet treat. Although it's called adopting a child, everyone knows that the emperor can no longer marry a woman, and this child is bound to be the future crown prince.

These ministers urged His Majesty to get married so that they could have more children from the Chi family royal family, so that even if Chi Xing suddenly disappeared in the future, someone would still be able to inherit the throne.

What can they say now that things have come to this?

And so, Akahoshi announced to the world that she and the Regent had married.

Over the past six months, the emperor and the regent have provided relief to countless disaster victims, and their decisions have helped the people avoid many calamities.

This event not only marks the marriage of His Majesty and the Regent, but also includes beneficial policies for the people such as granting special imperial examinations and tax exemptions.

The relief grain was distributed to the disaster-stricken areas in the name of the regent, so no one could find fault with him.

And so, during the days when Mu Zeyu was bedridden, Chi Xing handled this matter extremely well, as if he had done it many times before.

Akahoshi naturally wouldn't tell him that these were all things Ayu had done in the past.

The imperial city resounded with the sounds of suona horns, gongs and drums, and firecrackers as the fiery red wedding procession arrived at the Regent's Palace.

Liang Fei and his men, along with a group of military officers, greeted the guests at the entrance. The Regent was getting married; this was a momentous occasion.

Chi Xing rode a tall horse, wearing a bright red wedding robe embroidered with golden dragons. He exuded extraordinary bearing and dignified presence, with a slight smile on his lips and a radiant smile on his face.

No one dared to stop him at the gate, so Chi Xing arrived at Mu Zeyu's courtyard without any trouble. As soon as he entered, he bumped into Mu Zeyu, who had personally opened the gate and come out.

He wore the same wedding robe, except that his red robe was embroidered with a phoenix in gold thread, and its golden tail feathers shimmered in the sunlight.

Her long black hair was tied up with a golden crown, and her headband was embroidered with intricate patterns. When she saw Chi Xing, Mu Zeyu's eyes were filled with love.

He couldn't wait any longer and wanted to come out and go home with the stars.

The two smiled at each other and quickened their pace. After not seeing each other for three days, Mu Zeyu couldn't wait to hug Chixing: "Xingxing, you've finally come."

"I've kept Ayu waiting. Ayu, come home with me."

The two rode on separate horses, each holding a smooth red silk ribbon, while a long procession carried the dowry behind them.

When the Regent got married, his dowry was full of gold, silver and jade artifacts, brocade and silk, rare treasures, and chests full of land deeds and gold and silver notes.

The common people not only received copper coins thrown by the newlyweds, but also enjoyed a continuous feast at the palace gate.
