The Dream of White Moonlight and Xiao Da, the Movie Queen

The cat was stunned; her beloved's dream was to open a medical school!

“Okay, I’ll have someone communicate with you about the specifics,” Xiao Liunian replied.

"Your Highness doesn't doubt that I'm lying to you?" Bai Yueguang couldn't help but ask.

"Dr. Bai, you're lying to me. At best, you'll die a quick death; at worst, you'll suffer a fate worse than death. Which do you want to choose?" Xiao Liunian retorted, his tone still calm, but a chill ran down the spines of the other two people and the cat.

This cat, in particular, kept asking itself: Have I become the villain system?

"Your Highness, please forgive me! I would never dare to deceive you!" Bai Yueguang quickly pledged her loyalty. What would she do if the medical school she was about to own were to be lost like this?

"This subordinate takes his leave!"

"Cen Rou, return to the city first thing tomorrow morning, then go to the palace and hide secretly. The emperor cannot die now; I need him to regain consciousness at the right time!" Xiao Liunian instructed.

"Furthermore, let Cen Mo lead his troops to find the right opportunity to purge the court of corrupt officials!"

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Xiao Liunian took the cat back to the house.

"Mumu, what exactly is this 'white moonlight' thing?" She wasn't Emperor Xiao Jin's true love, and in the end, she was Xiao Jin's new empress. That doesn't seem like it. Could it be that she married Xiao Jin to start a medical school? That can't be!

"I don't know the specifics, but Prince Xiao Liuchen is neither the emperor's biological son nor Bai Yueguang's son. However, Xiao Liuchen and Bai Yueguang should have some blood relation." Xiao Liunian hadn't done any specific investigation into this "younger brother." According to Xiao Liunian's thinking, unimportant people weren't worth wasting time on.

"Next time I see my white moonlight, I can just ask her!" Looking at Garfield, who was scratching his head and full of curiosity, Xiao Liunian regretted not asking about his white moonlight earlier.

"I'll remind you when the time comes!" the cat clenched its fist.

As time marched on, the power struggle between the two factions in the court finally came to a head. Xiao Yu's faction gradually lost ground, while the other faction emerged victorious, choosing an orphaned child from a collateral branch of the Xiao family to be adopted by Xiao Jin.

Just then, Xiao Yu led his troops to surround the imperial city. It turned out that Xiao Yu had been secretly building up an army all these years, intending to seize the throne by force.

"Mumu, Xiao Yu just surrounded the palace like that??? Is the Imperial Guard really that weak? And what about the 50,000 troops in the outskirts of the capital? Could they have been taken down by Xiao Yu as well?" The system, which was generous with its points system, activated its wide-area monitoring function, which cost one million points each time and lasted for 24 hours.

The system, which happened to witness this scene, was shocked. Xiao Yu, as a leisurely and wealthy prince for so many years, even if he spent money to hire people to fight for him, should not be able to defeat 10,000 imperial guards.

"Mumu, are these soldiers really that easy to defeat?"

"Aren't there successful cases in Chinese history where eight hundred people could gamble their way to victory?" Xiao Liunian cited an example.

"Erfeng was able to succeed because she had the ability herself. Even her father couldn't control her. She had many people in the court, especially in the army. But what about Xiao Yu? What does Xiao Yu have?" The system analyzed carefully.

"That's courageous!" Xiao Liunian said.

"Mumu, is this a lame joke?" The cat shook its head.

“No, it’s that Xiao Yu really has courage!” Xiao Liunian said seriously.

"As for the Imperial Guards, how do you know there aren't any of Xiao Yu's men in them? As for the camp outside the capital, as long as Xiao Yu quickly takes control of the situation, becomes the new emperor, and appeases the old master, those 20,000 troops will likely turn against the new emperor."

"What are they after? No matter who succeeds to the throne, the Imperial Guards will still be the Imperial Guards. Why do they have to stand on Xiao Yu's side?" The system continuously output its opinions.

"How many people can refuse the merit of following the emperor? Aren't you also on this path? In essence, there's not much difference," Xiao Liunian countered.

“That’s right!” the cat nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, we're one step closer to receiving a huge sum of points." Xiao Liunian teleported away with the cat.

"Are we going to seize the throne?" the system asked excitedly.

"Hmm!" Xiao Liunian's tone remained ordinary and indifferent.

The system's internal commentary flashed by: Although you're a big shot, this makes me seem like I've never seen anything like this before, ╭(╯^╰)╮!

——

Inside the palace, Xiao Yu led three thousand soldiers and successfully sealed off the palace, trapping a group of ministers in the Taiji Hall. Emperor Xiao Jin was helped to sit on the dragon throne and watched his ministers adopt children for him, so that they could take control of the government after he died.

Xiao Jin tried hard to control her body to react, but apart from her two swollen and bloodshot eyes, her body looked no different to others.

"Gentlemen, didn't you see the Emperor's brother is objecting? What are you trying to do?"

"You are plotting a rebellion!"

Xiao Yu's soldiers surrounded the main hall so tightly that there was no way to pass through. The officials were now like fish on a chopping board, just waiting for the butcher to wield the knife.

“Ninth Prince, you have led troops into the palace; this is tantamount to rebellion!” an official said.

The others also wanted to rebuke Xiao Yu, but the person who had just spoken was already lying on the ground, and a pool of blood slowly spread out on the ground of Taiji Hall.

"My lords, the Emperor intends to establish the Crown Prince as heir apparent. You all just forced the Emperor to accept adoption in the palace, which is truly outrageous!"

Xiao Yu slowly walked to Xiao Jin's side. Several ministers in the hall reacted and quickly stepped forward to try to stop Xiao Yu, but they were all stopped.

Xiao Yu picked up the jade seal from the table and placed it in Xiao Jin's hand. Then, he held Xiao Jin's hand and stamped the jade seal on the edict he had brought.

"The imperial edict has been issued by my elder brother, and I am now the Crown Prince. Gentlemen, you should be more aware of the situation! Otherwise..." Xiao Yu waved his hand, and several knives were placed against the necks of the ministers.

"Your subject pays respects to the Crown Prince!" Under the executioner's blade, some still cherish their lives.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several arrows came from outside the palace, and the soldiers who were holding swords to the ministers fell to the ground.

"Whoosh!" Several arrows flew through the air again, clearly aimed at Xiao Yu, who reacted quickly to dodge.

Then, Cen Mo led his men and rushed in from outside the hall. In no time, all the people Xiao Yu had brought were lying on the ground. Xiao Yu was surrounded, and the situation changed instantly. The adults who had knelt down too early immediately regretted it.

What shocked both sides even more was the figure that slowly walked in from the entrance of the hall.

"Your Highness, most of the rebels have been executed. We await the fate of the rest!" Cen Mo reported.

"General Cen and everyone else have worked hard to quell the rebellion!"

What these people were thinking was: Coach Liu has become a princess!!! A princess!!!

Some of the people Cen Mo led were members of the Wuzhou Army Special Operations Battalion, who had previously infiltrated Jinling City in small groups.

"Your Highness!"

The ministers and Xiao Yu in the hall finally realized what was happening.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Xiao Jin was finally able to make a sound, and excitedly shouted at Xiao Liunian.

"Father, I am late. You have suffered!"

"How dare they force you to this point, Father? Rest assured, I have already arranged for someone to find a skilled doctor to treat you. I believe you will recover!" Xiao Liunian placed his hand on Xiao Jin's arm, applying some pressure to transfer a force to Xiao Jin.

"I was keeping vigil at the imperial mausoleum for my mother when General Cen noticed the dire situation in the capital and that my uncle and the court officials had their own agendas. So he specially sent someone to bring me back to take care of my father. Only just now did I realize that my father was being forced by you all to adopt a son and wait to inherit the throne. What are you trying to do? My father is seriously ill, and you are not even trying to find a famous doctor to treat him. Are you plotting a rebellion? You are all pillars of the court. Do you even know the meaning of loyalty to the emperor?" Xiao Liunian turned her head and glanced at the officials in the hall. Some of them were not convinced and spoke up to argue with the princess who had suddenly appeared.

"Your Highness, His Majesty is gravely ill, and we are acting in the best interests of the nation!"

"My father is still alive. Are you all hoping he dies sooner?" Xiao Liunian's tone was agitated, her words were illogical and reckless, but every word she uttered was indignant on behalf of her father, Emperor Xiao Jin. The others wanted to argue, but before they could speak, they were intimidated by Xiao Liunian's angry gaze and could not utter a word.

The Cat in the Hide: Besides worrying about becoming the villain system, it also has to worry about becoming the movie queen system. Its acting skills are touching, and its momentum is unstoppable.

Just then, Xiao Yu, who should have been restrained, rushed towards Xiao Jin and struck him squarely in the chest with a palm strike.

"Your Majesty, you established the Hall of Hell, secretly supported Yan Li in abducting or buying children to train assassins, and then caused her death. You deserve to die!"

"Father!" Xiao Liunian cried out urgently, and then swiftly unleashed a palm strike. Xiao Yu was thrown back several meters by the force of the blow, and Cen Mo led his men to quickly surround Xiao Yu again.

"Xiao Jin really has an outstanding daughter!" Xiao Yu realized at this moment that everything she had done today had benefited others, but killing Xiao Jin was not a loss.

"Go find the imperial physician!" Xiao Liunian shouted loudly.

"Yes!" someone responded and left.

"The throne is yours!" Emperor Xiao Jin said with his last breath, handing the imperial seal to Xiao Liunian, who then tightly grasped Xiao Jin's hand.

"Father! Father!" Xiao Liunian cried out loudly, overwhelmed with grief.

"His Majesty!"

Everyone in the hall knelt in the blood-soaked Taiji Hall, weeping all around.

Xiao Jin, who reigned for about ten years, harbored great ambitions, but ultimately achieved nothing.

"This humble general pays his respects to Your Majesty!" Cen Mo led the soldiers who had come to quell the rebellion in the hall to bow.

The other ministers in the hall never expected things to develop in this direction. A female emperor? The Jinling Dynasty had never had a female emperor before. How could this be!

Some people think that way, but at this point, they have no choice.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects!" Liu Fuyuan led the way, followed by other ministers who bowed their heads in obeisance.

Thus, Xiao Liunian became the first female emperor of the Jinling Dynasty, beginning her career as an emperor!

"Host ascends the throne as Emperor, reward: 10 billion points!"

The system's eyes were now filled with flashing points.

"Mumu! Mumu! Mumu!"

"Sweetie, play for a while. You need to solidify your position!" Xiao Liunian said.

"The commander of the Imperial Guards colluded with the Ninth Prince to rebel and has been executed. You are now in charge of the remaining Imperial Guards. Anyone who resists will be killed!"

"This subordinate obeys!" Cen Mo led the group away from the Taiji Hall.

"My lords, there have been too many changes today. Before my father passed away, he passed the throne to me. He did not have time to write an edict. In order to prevent anyone from making a big fuss about this in the future and causing turmoil in the court, I will record the situation of today in detail and make a document in triplicate. I will keep one copy, one copy will be left for the ministers to refer to in the court in the future, and one copy will be kept by each of you."

After the document is written, all you gentlemen need to do is sign and stamp it as proof. This is an ancient version of a notarized document. If anyone questions it in the future, this notarized document will be the best proof. This time, you can rightfully succeed to the throne and avoid some trouble.

"Lord Lin, you shall take the pen!" Xiao Liunian waved his hand, and someone presented paper, pen, and ink to Lord Lin.

"Your Highness!" Someone was unwilling and wanted to struggle a little longer.

"Be careful, sir!" someone shouted, drawing their sword.

"Your Highness, there appeared to be rebel soldiers with knives behind this official. I am here to protect him!"

"However, I must have misread it!"

"My lord, please forgive me!" The sword was sheathed.

"Lord Zhang seems to have something to say!" Xiao Liunian asked.

"Your Highness, I did not bring the seal with me. May I leave my fingerprint here, and then I can add it later?"

"nature!"

"Lord Liu, since you previously served in the Ministry of Rites, the Emperor's funeral arrangements will be entrusted to you!" Xiao Liunian arranged.

Everything after that was handled by a special government department, and Xiao Liunian only needed to wait to ascend the throne.
