In her previous life, the scumbag faked his death at the border. Deceived by others, she believed her feelings for him were profound. She committed suicide at his grave, following him to the afterl...
Chapter 940 It’s not too late, you came just in time
Princess Huayang glanced at Song Yanxi from the corner of her eye and said with a weak breath, "I have spared your life. Can I get a promise from you in return?"
Before Mo Jinchuan could speak, she said, "The daughter of the Yan family must never be the queen.
Otherwise, Da'an will be in chaos."
Perhaps it was because a dying man's words were kind, she raised her eyes with great effort and looked at Song Yanxi, "Don't blame me, I am also doing this for the country."
When she turned around again, she was too weak to speak.
The excruciating pain in her abdomen made her wonder whether Mo Jinchuan's mother had felt the same pain when she passed away.
No, she wanted it to hurt more.
After all, she had just given birth a few days ago and her body was weak.
She was so stupid that she drank the chicken soup she gave her without any precautions and died without even having time to scream in pain.
Princess Huayang held Mo Jinchuan's hand tightly, staring at him, waiting for him to say the word "good".
Otherwise, she will not be able to rest in peace even after her death.
When she was about to lose consciousness, she heard Mo Jinchuan say, "Who gets the throne is not up to my aunt."
"You!" Princess Huayang widened her eyes and left the world with a heart full of resentment.
Emperor Xuande said, "Xiaowu, she is your aunt after all."
Mo Jinchuan's voice was icy, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. Today's situation will not be spread out. I will also follow my promise to Your Majesty and assist your ninth brother as the regent until he takes power.
As for the rest, please don't make things difficult for me."
"Forget it." Emperor Xuande closed his eyes and said tiredly, "I am tired, you can leave first.
Dai Qiu's funeral arrangements will be fully handled by the Queen."
Mo Jinchuan said respectfully, "I obey your command."
Song Yanxi originally wanted to take Emperor Xuande's pulse again, but she heard him say, "Yanxi girl, you have worked hard these days.
Since Brother Yan is back, you should go back and keep him company."
The emperor's order cannot be disobeyed, so Song Yanxi can only leave as instructed.
When the two of them reached the door, they suddenly heard Emperor Xuande say, "Xiaowu, your aunt has just passed away. You two should make preparations and arrange the wedding in three days.
Otherwise, you’ll have to wait another three years.”
This kid could certainly wait, but his body couldn't.
If he didn't see them get married with his own eyes, he would not be able to close his eyes even if he died.
Mo Jinchuan responded respectfully, took Song Yanxi's hand and strode away.
When the footsteps went away, Emperor Xuande could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Song Yanxi sat in front of the dressing table in her wedding dress, looking at the reflection of the woman in the bronze mirror, still feeling dazed.
After today, she will be Mo Jinchuan's wife and the Princess Jin of the Jin Palace.
She couldn't hear a single auspicious word in her ears, and all she could think about was when she could see him again.
According to Da'an customs, the bride and groom cannot see each other three days before the wedding, otherwise it will be unlucky.
Even though Mo Jinchuan was such an unruly person, he was afraid of doing anything bad to her, so he only asked An San to deliver letters back and forth between the two sides every day.
They were not far from each other and even exchanged letters every day.
But she had never missed him so much as she did now.
Zhuzhi came over with a plate of cakes and whispered in her ear, "Miss, General Lin passed away this morning.
The jailer said that he heard that the girl was going to become a nun today, so he hanged himself with his belt before dawn.
Before he died, he seemed to have left a letter in blood, but the guards thought it was bad luck and threw it into the brazier and burned it.
Upon hearing this, Song Yanxi asked calmly, "Is there any news about the search for Prince Liang and Princess Shihan?"
Seeing her expression was indescribable, Song Yanxi asked directly: "How did the person die?"
Zhuzhi said: "The princess was poisoned to death by Prince Liang's blood. I heard from the divine doctor Huangfu that Prince Liang had been poisoned for many years and the poison had long been integrated into his blood.
Prince Liang was first poisoned and then beheaded. The blood on the ground gave off a strange fragrance, exactly the same as the spices Chang Jiu had prepared.
She paused, then continued, "Divine Doctor Huangfu said that a gentleman with less agile legs and feet had sent him a message, saying that he would be leaving for Liang State that very day.
Now that the throne of Liang has changed hands, it is a time of chaos, and I don’t know what he will do.”
Song Yanxi curled the corners of her lips, "That gentleman went to look for his old master."
Zhuzhi suddenly realized and said with a smile, "I heard that the new emperor of Liang State was of humble origin, and the first thing he did after inheriting the throne was to send envoys to our Da'an to seek peace.
From now on, the people on both sides will be able to live in peace."
Yan Qing came in with a bowl of hot soup and said softly, "Xi'er, drink the chicken soup to fill your stomach. You'll be busy with the ceremony today."
Zhuzhi hurriedly said, "Don't worry, my dear. The prince said that there are people in the palace who will prepare food for the young lady at any time. We will make sure that my young lady won't starve."
Shen Qingyun laughed at her and said, "You haven't even married your daughter to the palace yet, and you're already turning your elbow outward?"
Lu Peilan said, "Sister-in-law, please stop making fun of this girl. She is very thin-skinned. Don't let her face look like a monkey's butt when she goes out with Xier later."
After he finished speaking, everyone in the room laughed.
All I heard was a burst of firecrackers outside.
Yan Xubai and Yan Qingsong, who had already prepared, looked at each other, rolled up their sleeves and walked out, saying as they walked: "Brother-in-law wants to come in, but he has to ask our two brothers-in-law if they agree."
Yan Qing said angrily, "You two brats! Jiaojiao followed you here. If you make him cry, the old man will not let you down!"
The two brothers gritted their teeth and said stubbornly, "Who cares? Let's stop him first!"
We have to let our future brother-in-law know that it’s not easy to marry their sister.
The two brothers were full of confidence, but they were defeated in the first round.
Mo Jinchuan sincerely prepared three gifts.
The first layer is gold and silver, the second layer is to please his tastes, and the third layer is to promise the future.
After this series of tricks, the two brothers didn't even notice how the wedding party squeezed in.
When they reacted, they saw Zixu sticking out his tongue at them, "Lululu, my two uncles, mother belongs to my father!"
The two men were so angry that they slapped their thighs and secretly swore in their hearts that they would make their brother-in-law pay when Sanchao returned home.
After a burst of joyful shouts, Song Yanxi, wearing the wedding dress embroidered by Yan Qing herself and the veil with Shen Qingyun and Lu Peilan's blessing scarf, was carried by Mo Jinchuan and put on the bridal sedan.
Looking at this scene, some people are happy and some are worried.
Mrs. Qiu pinched Qiu Yuanzheng, who was grinning like a fool, and muttered, "Well, your good daughter-in-law is gone, and you're still grinning like that."
As she was speaking, she caught a glimpse of Song Xubai, who was saying farewell with red eyes but still had a smile on his face, and suddenly smiled.
If you can't find a daughter-in-law, you can at least find a son-in-law!

When others are in their wedding night, they are full of love, but they only regret that the night is too short.
But the first thing Mo Jinchuan did when he lifted the veil was not to rush into kissing her. Instead, he took out a stack of letters from the cabinet next to him.
What was recorded on it was the evidence that Princess Huayang had previously ordered people to forge evidence in an attempt to frame the Yan family for treason.
The person is already dead, he doesn't have to do this.
But when the two looked at each other, Song Yanxi saw the deep heartache in his eyes.
That look was completely different from before.
Thinking of her decision to confess to him on her wedding night, Song Yanxi suddenly understood something.
Before she could speak, Mo Jinchuan said in a deep voice, "Xier, I'm sorry, I'm late."
She held his hand tightly, kissed him on the lips, and cried with joy: "It's not too late, you came just in time."
