She became a god

On New Year's Eve, Qi Zhanying pulled Ye Qingzhou out of bed.

“Xian’er, there is no safe place now. After thinking it over, I still want to keep you by my side. Either I watch you live, or you watch me die.”

Neither of these two scenarios mentions the possibility that she might have watched Ye Qingzhou die.

In Qi Zhanying's view, as long as she had a breath left, she would never allow her lover to be harmed in any way.

Ye Qingzhou was once again moved by Qi Zhanying's love. She thought: Narcissus is indeed the reincarnation of Zhao Ji. Her suitor's sincerity is truly admirable!

Meeting Qi Zhanying's worried, gentle, and resolute gaze, Ye Qingzhou smiled, "To have someone worth following through life and death with is surely one of life's greatest blessings."

It's impossible to truly die, but given the atmosphere, Ye Qingzhou had no reason to let it fall flat.

As expected, upon hearing this, Qi Zhanying grasped Ye Qingzhou's hand, looked up at the sky and laughed, "Xian'er, today I will fight for you, for my mother, and for the world!"

Ye Qingzhou returned Qi Zhanying's hand and smiled gently.

"May Your Highness have all your wishes fulfilled, be safe and sound every year, and enjoy good health and happiness year after year."

On that day, the wintersweet outside the courtyard was in full bloom, and its delicate fragrance drifted into the air on the cold wind.

But amidst the vast expanse of snow, all she could see was white light, obscuring the path ahead and the way home. Only a pale yellow hue seemed to be gently approaching her.

Empress Chen was momentarily stunned when she saw Ye Qingzhou dressed as a maid, but quickly regained her composure.

She always wanted to give her daughter the best. Qi Zhanying was obedient and outstanding, and was her lifelong pride. But this excellent daughter rarely asked her for anything.

Her daughter is like her; she will do everything in her power to get what she wants.

The throne is like this, and so is the narcissus.

After seeing how much Qi Zhanying and Yu Guangzhong cared for Shuixian, Empress Chen knew that in her daughter's heart, Shuixian was probably not much different from herself.

The fact that Narcissus came shows that she is kind and loyal to Ying'er.

If they survive today, Empress Chen will never again act as a villain, no matter what happens to the two of them.

Time was too tight, and the situation was too stressful.

Empress Chen had no time to think further. She raised her wine cup with His Majesty and invited the princes and ministers to drink.

Prince Guang did not drink it. Instead, he exchanged a smile with Prince Jin and said with a disdainful laugh, "Brother, how can the Qi Yan dynasty be passed on to a woman?"

"Huaining is the Crown Princess chosen by Consort Zhaoji. Does Fourth Brother intend to defy the will of the gods?" Empress Chen sneered.

"Your Majesty, the women of the inner palace must not interfere in politics."

"Ha!" Empress Chen scoffed coldly, displeased. "Our dynasty governs with filial piety. The late emperor graciously allowed the Empress to handle state affairs, and the Empress abdicated only a few years ago."

Your Majesty, as the son of the late Emperor and Empress, you have acted perversely and against the natural order. This is an act of utter disrespect and unfilial piety!

I am the Empress, the mother of the nation, and it is not up to an unfilial and disrespectful person to criticize me.

Your Majesty, wouldn't you agree?

Empress Chen deliberately brought down the emperor; she had long disliked her husband's opportunistic behavior.

Her good husband, all he thinks about is enjoying the good life without lifting a finger. He's really giving her too much credit.

The younger brother is already taking advantage of them, yet they still don't know how to protect their daughter and wife.

Under pressure from Empress Chen, the emperor had no choice but to speak, "Fourth brother, apologize to your sister-in-law."

King Guang angrily smashed his cup, “That wicked woman manipulates power and coerces the emperor to issue an edict to establish that demoness as the crown prince, intending to seize the throne of my Great Yan. Today, I swear to kill that wicked woman and the demoness, cleanse the court of corrupt officials, and restore the nation!”

At that moment, Prince Jin also stood up and said with a smile, "Fourth brother, please allow your elder brother to lend you a hand."

The worst-case scenario still occurred: the two kings joined forces in rebellion.

The two forces are currently evenly matched, and both kings are within the imperial city, yet they are so bold, they must have something to rely on.

The most ridiculous thing is that they slandered Empress Chen and her daughter in front of Emperor Yan, accusing them of bewitching the emperor. It's truly laughable.

"Second Imperial Uncle, Fourth Imperial Uncle, I am reluctant to punish you for your drunkenness. Please take care of yourselves."

Although Qi Zhanying was not afraid of killing, he did not want the Great Yan army to be weakened by this internal conflict.

The territory under the Guang King's rule is close to the frontier, and the people are known for their fierce and brave nature. The soldiers are mostly brave and represent the elite force of the Great Yan.

The territory under the Prince of Jin was close to the capital, and was rich, with abundant grain and complete equipment.

Every time Qi Zhanying thought of these things, it was as if he had returned to the time when the princes were enfeoffed, and he could expel all the nonsense from his father's brain.

Even though he knew that this enfeoffment was a choice made by his father, who was not powerful enough, in order to appease the people.

However, she sacrificed her marriage to gain the support of the An, Huo, and Ling families, and thus gained a slight advantage in military strength.

It's easy to divide these troops, but difficult to gather them together.

"His Majesty has decreed that we should come to the aid of the King. Princess Chen should just offer her neck for execution as soon as possible."

The Prince of Jin pulled out a bright yellow imperial edict from his sleeve, a malicious smile playing on his lips.

Empress Chen subconsciously looked at her husband, only to see him rubbing his head silently, his face pale, and tears streaming down his face.

"You audacious Prince Jin, how dare you poison His Majesty!"

Seeing this, Ye Qingzhou guessed that it was most likely the effect of the Biluoxiang.

I don't know how Princess Huaishun of the Prince of Jin managed to use Biluoxiang on the Emperor.

"Empress Chen, the poisoner, is the first to accuse us. Who in the world doesn't know that you control the harem? This poison was clearly administered by you and the Crown Princess, with the intention of seizing power from my Qi family. After His Majesty discovered this, he issued an edict ordering us to kill the traitor!"

What a fine Prince Jin! His explanation was both reasonable and well-founded. If I hadn't been framed, I would probably have applauded this so-called loyal and virtuous king.

Qi Zhanying stopped the Empress, who still wanted to argue, with a look, and glanced disdainfully at the two princes, "There are always petty people who refuse to listen to reason and try to stir up trouble and disrupt the court."

I am here today to invite you all to join me in this grand undertaking, to slay the villains, and to preserve our nation.

Those who wish to follow me, please join me in fighting the enemy and serving the country.

As the words fell, both sides stepped forward, and the grand drama of the struggle for the throne officially began.

Ye Qingzhou was placed next to Empress Chen. Compared to the Empress's nervousness, she was more composed.

Until the bomb appeared.

Yao Yiyi? She actually made such a weapon.

In this era dominated by cold weapons, the power of bombs was undoubtedly immense.

Even if this bomb doesn't kill all of Qi Zhanying's men, it will at least blow up half of them.

King Guang triumphantly threw the bomb, looking at the fleeing people and laughing, "No matter how you try to escape, you can't change your fate of death."

"Is that so?" Qi Zhanying sneered, and she actually used an Emei thorn to pick up the bomb and throw it towards King Guang.

King Guang's men, knowing the horror of the bomb, scattered like birds and beasts, thus ignoring why the bomb had not yet exploded.

King Guang had a vague idea: "You tampered with the bomb!"

Qi Zhanying smiled slightly. The people who had pretended to flee earlier had already formed a formation to surround the traitors.

Even the most foolish person would know upon seeing this that the two kings' power was gone.

In this coup, Princess Chen emerged victorious!

For the next eight hundred years, the Qi and Yan dynasties were ruled by women!
