After he spoke, a deafening sound rang out both inside and outside the city gate.
"Welcome Princess Luo Qing home!"
It's going home, not returning to China.
Princess Luo Qing, this is your home, and it has always belonged to you!
Li Yunyan was thrilled. She never expected that what was originally just a bold idea would actually be realized by Su Ting'an and Meng Qingye!
So next...
Her figure was noble and elegant, and standing next to Fu Luoyouqi, who had a royal air about him, she exuded confidence and composure.
Her red lips parted slightly, "Get up, all of you!"
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Su Ting'an walked gracefully, calmly and slowly, and bowed to Fu Luo Youqi, saying, "Greetings, Brother King of Bei Shuo!"
It's the eldest brother again!!!
Looking at the elegant and charming Su Ting'an, Fu Luoyouqi's hostility intensified.
He doesn't have that many younger brothers!
Su Ting'an received no response from him, but he was not annoyed. He looked at Li Yunyan with gentle eyes, as tender as a river in spring.
"Your Highness, I have come to take you home!"
Li Yunyan smiled and nodded slightly, "Okay, let's go home!"
And so they moved into the palace.
He moved into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.
The palace was a new sight; all the familiar faces were gone. When the palace servants saw Li Yunyan, they no longer treated her carelessly as before, but instead greeted her respectfully.
As an important official of the court, Su Ting'an naturally followed her.
Besides being the General Who Conquers the North, Meng Qingye also had another identity—the Commander of the Imperial Guards.
He followed Li Yunyan openly and closely, protecting her closely.
This infuriated Fu Luoyouqi.
Su Ting'an dismissed all the servants, and when only the four of them remained in the hall, he suddenly knelt down with Meng Qingye.
"Princess!"
Li Yunyan's heart pounded, but she still had to distract herself from calming the impending riot of Fu Luo Youqi. She asked in a low voice, "What is it?"
Su Ting'an spoke earnestly, "Princess! The Yuanxia Kingdom's royal family now consists only of you! Please, for the sake of the people, ascend the throne and bring blessings to all!"
Meng Qingye: "Princess! I feel the same way!"
Li Yunyan was somewhat shocked. She hadn't even said anything yet, and Su Ting'an had already guessed it?
Or was it that he didn't even try to guess, and this was his own intention?
Li Yunyan had always wanted to experience what it was like to stand at the pinnacle of power. Now that Su Ting'an had even come up with an excuse for her, should she at least make a token refusal?
Seeing that she was still hesitating, Su Ting'an raised his voice, "Princess, the Yuanxia Kingdom is currently in turmoil, the royal bloodline is dwindling, and the people's hearts are unsettled. I urge you, Princess, to save the country from collapse and ascend the throne as soon as possible!"
Meng Qingye: "Princess! I feel the same way!"
Meng Qingye is so easy!
His appearance suddenly reminded Li Yunyan of someone, and in this serious moment, she actually felt like laughing.
Suddenly she felt the person next to her move.
Fu Luo Youqi, who had been silent all along, suddenly grabbed her hand.
His eyes were gentle, his expression sincere, and he slowly said, "Yanyan, whatever you want to do, the Northern Shuo Kingdom and I will fully support you!"
Li Yunyan never expected that he would not have a single objection to her becoming emperor!
He is the ruler of a country!
If she becomes the emperor of Yuanxia, wouldn't she be the one in charge, and he the one in charge?
He actually tolerated it!
"Aqi!" She was moved, her eyes glistening with tears as she looked at him.
Fu Luoyouqi's Adam's apple bobbed, and a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes as he caught a glimpse of the two kneeling figures on the ground.
Just as he was about to lower his head and kiss her, Su Ting'an on the ground spoke.
"Princess! Have you agreed?"
His little act was interrupted, and Fu Luo glared at Su Ting'an with displeasure. Their eyes actually met!
The other person looked at him with an open and honest expression. Although he was kneeling, his posture was still upright and proper, without diminishing his demeanor in the slightest.
Fu Luo was furious; this kid was doing it on purpose!
Li Yunyan was processing the sudden information and didn't notice the exchange between their expressions.
She thought carefully for a moment before saying, "You may rise and speak... What do the court officials say?"
Su Ting'an obediently stood up and spoke calmly, "The court officials all look forward to the princess's early ascension to the throne!"
As long as Su Ting'an was around, Meng Qingye didn't need to say anything; he just nodded in agreement.
Su Ting'an made no mention of what he had done in the matter, nor did he show any intention of taking credit. Meng Qingye simply nodded and grinned foolishly.
Their humility deeply moved Li Yunyan, and she felt proud of them.
She was right about him!
Now that they have cleared all obstacles and done everything for her, they are just waiting for her to take that position!
Li Yunyan no longer held back, and with a smile on her face, she nodded amidst the three pairs of expectant eyes.
Su Ting'an and Meng Qingye exchanged a knowing smile, their eyes filled with the joy of their wish coming true.
"Princess! The day after tomorrow is the auspicious day for your coronation! Tomorrow, you and your elder brother, the King of Beishuo, should rest well and familiarize yourselves with the ceremony procedures. The coronation ceremony will be held the day after tomorrow!"
"I see!"
Li Yunyan could not hide her excitement.
Is she really going to be the empress?
An empress?! She can turn the world upside down, stir up trouble, and take in countless concubines... cough!!
Stop!
She glanced guiltily at Fu Luo Youqi; his possessiveness was off the charts! He would absolutely not tolerate such a thing happening!
Even Su Ting'an, whom she had previously favored, she now only had the desire but not the courage to act on it...
That's enough!
Guang Fuluo Youqi is already struggling on her own, so she shouldn't make things harder for herself!
Fu Luo was finally able to hold her in his arms, his large hands enveloping her body, and his gaze toward Su Ting'an was full of warning.
Su Ting'an stood with his hands at his sides, his eyes still gentle and calm, but the bitterness welling up in his heart made it difficult for him to breathe.
Meng Qingye looked at those arms with envy, wishing he could take their place!
But he also knew he couldn't rush things; he had to follow Brother Su's arrangements for everything to succeed.
Lower your eyes; out of sight, out of mind.
*
The enthronement ceremony was held as scheduled.
The scene was magnificent and grand.
Su Ting'an somehow managed to persuade so many court officials that not a single one expressed any objection to her ascension to the throne. They all knelt down with respectful expressions and shouted "Long live the Empress!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
Li Yunyan, dressed in a bright yellow women's dragon robe, sat upright on the dragon throne, her face solemn and her expression majestic, exuding the air of an emperor.
Hearing the thunderous roar, at this moment, her stunning beauty had become secondary. What surpassed her was the ruler of a country, the emperor who controlled the major affairs of the nation.
With a slender, delicate hand raised, a clear yet authoritative voice emanated from her red lips—
"All of you, rise!"
