When the ministers once again submitted memorials requesting that the emperor fill the harem, Xiao Jingzhao wrote an edict of abdication.
After ascending the throne, Sui Sui did not change the country's name, saying that Wanling would continue to prosper.
The emperor abdicated in his prime, leaving his ministers dumbfounded.
Three years after Sui Sui ascended the throne, Xie Ke'er gave birth to her first imperial heir.
The palace held its first imperial concubine selection.
Jiang Shuyue felt a headache coming on when Qiuju talked about her son's talent show.
In the eighteenth year of the Sheng Dynasty, the two ancestors passed away peacefully in Yannan.
When Bao'er was fourteen, Mo Zixuan wrote to her, wanting to ask for Bao'er to marry the Crown Prince of Liang.
Xiao Jingzhao cursed, "Dream on! Who wants a worthless Crown Princess!"
Finally, the Liang Kingdom sent a princess, who was given the title of Consort Zhen every year. Consort Zhen was lively and beautiful.
Of all the concubines in the harem, apart from the Empress, his favorite was Consort Zhen.
Bao'er eventually fell in love with Zhen's son. When the second son turned eighteen, Xiao Jingzhao gave him a fiefdom.
On a fine, sunny day, a specially made large carriage slowly drove out of the capital.
Inside the carriage, Jiang Shuyue nestled in Xiao Jingzhao's broad arms.
"Ah Zhao, are you really able to leave without a care in the world?"
"With Su Jin as the Right Chancellor and Shui Sheng in charge of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they have cultivated so many loyal ministers over the years, enough for our son. Don't think too much, let's go live our carefree lives."
...
When Jiang Shuyue turned eighty, she seemed to see Xiao Jingzhao, who had been dead for several years, come to pick her up.
She could hear the soft sobs of her children and grandchildren. She had lived too long; everyone around her had passed away before her.
The loneliness in her heart was just like when she first arrived here.
In this life, I've cried, laughed, felt regret, and also experienced brilliance.
The past flashed through her mind like a movie, a slight smile played on her lips, and the sobbing in her ears gradually faded away.
...
"Wake up, miss! Your phone has fallen to the ground."
A familiar voice rang in my ears.
"I'm not dead?"
"He's not dead, he's still breathing. If you don't believe me, touch his nose." The man's words were full of mockery.
Jiang Shuyue suddenly opened her eyes and saw a handsome man in casual clothes smiling at her.
"Nangong Zeyue!"
"You know me?"
"Where did Xiao Jingzhao go?" Jiang Shuyue scrambled to her feet and asked anxiously.
"Oh, no wonder you know my name, you know my cousin."
Jiang Shuyue was overjoyed. She never expected that her dream would end so vividly, as if she had traveled through time.
A moment later, Jiang Shuyue suddenly realized something was wrong; she had traveled back in time again.
"May I ask your name, miss?"
"I'm Jiang Shuyue, please tell me where he is and recommend him to me on WeChat."
"Miss, it's been a few years since you've contacted my cousin. He had an accident while doing an experiment and he's gone."
I……
Jiang Shuyue suddenly blacked out and fainted.
