"Why are you back so early?" Gu Huai asked, reaching out and holding Xie Yunjiao's hand.
She struggled but didn't pull her hand free.
"So you don't want me to come back?" Xie Yunjiao snorted coldly, pretending to be angry.
Gu Huai hurriedly held Xie Yunjiao's hand tighter and said, "How could that be? I wish you could stay at home."
He then said, "Are you hungry? How about I go downstairs and give you something to eat?"
Xie Yunjiao wanted to say that she was not hungry because she had just finished eating at Jing Kai's place.
But she saw that Gu Huai seemed to really want to give her the bottom, and she didn't want to make him unhappy, so she had to say, "Okay."
***
Jing Kai hurried into the palace and came to Xie Yunjiao's former bedroom.
Xie Xiuer was tied up and couldn't move.
When she saw Jing Kai coming in, she excitedly shouted at him.
"Jing Kai, you will die a horrible death. You have put me under house arrest! You might as well kill me!" Xie Xiuer shouted at Jing Kai.
Jing Kai looked at Xie Xiu'er, sneered, and said, "Do you really want to die? If you wanted to die, you would have ended your own life long ago instead of doing these little tricks here."
Xie Xiu'er was stunned for a moment, then she looked at Jing Kai with eyes filled with anger. She shouted at him, "Yes, you know I dare not die, so you torture me like this. Imprisoning me here is a life worse than death!"
"This is just your own choice. If you weren't greedy for her identity and her position, you wouldn't have agreed to that deal.
And you were the one who orchestrated that deal. Now you regret it? Are you treating yourself as a victim again?
I tell you, even if you really want to die, I won't let you die. You will stay here for the rest of your life."
After Jing Kai finished speaking, he gave a look to the maid who was guarding her and turned away.
Xie Xiuer felt both hatred and sadness in her heart. She hated Jing Kai for not even giving her a look of pity.
I also hated Xie Yunjiao for coming back suddenly. If she hadn't come back, so many things wouldn't have happened.
She hated it even more because everyone knew their identities. Now, the deal just became a rope to bind her and it did her no good at all!
That's why she tortured herself desperately, thinking that as long as Xie Yunjiao could suffer as much as she did, it would be worth it.
She even thought about crippling herself, as long as she could still survive.
But when the pain came and she cried, she became afraid, and because of this fear, she stopped torturing herself.
But after a while, she began to feel unwilling again, and the cycle continued.
She thought that as long as Xie Yunjiao was not having a good time, she would be happy.
But now Jing Kai had her tied up, and she was lying on the bed, unable to move. What was the difference between her and a dead person?!
Since Xie Yunjiao agreed to ascend the throne and become queen, the palace staff took her back to the palace from the White Wolf Alliance early the next morning.
Someone told her about the matters that would occur during her coronation, someone taught her etiquette, and someone else tailored the clothes she would wear for the coronation ceremony.
The date of the coronation ceremony was set as soon as possible, half a month later, as Jing Kai requested.
Everyone was sweating and their throats were burning with anxiety.
Can we make it in time in half a month?
The robe to be worn at the coronation ceremony and the phoenix crown alone could not be made in half a month.
Xie Yunjiao added fuel to the fire and cooked them like ants on the hot pan!
Xie Yunjiao thought half a month later was too late, so she asked them to shorten the time and choose seven days later.
"Princess, this doesn't seem like a good idea," one of the courtiers looked at Xie Yunjiao, hesitant to speak. "Seven days is too rushed. Even if we summoned all the weavers and tailors in the palace and had them work day and night, we still wouldn't be able to finish the robe in seven days."
"Don't worry about this, just leave it to me." Xie Yunjiao said.
Everyone was stunned, wondering if Xie Yunjiao could have any better ideas?
Xie Yunjiao brought the tailor and the weaver girl into the space and asked them to stay there to work. When they were hungry, she would give them food to eat. When they were thirsty, they would drink spiritual spring water. When they were tired, they could take turns to rest.
The craftsmen who were making the phoenix crown were also brought into the space by Xie Yunjiao to work together.
The clothes and phoenix crown were both redesigned by Xie Yunjiao, simple yet solemn.
After working for six days, everyone felt as if more than ten days had passed. When they came out of the space with exquisite and beautiful robes and phoenix crowns, they shocked everyone.
Unexpectedly, Xie Yunjiao really accomplished the impossible. Everyone said that Xie Yunjiao was the chosen one, as if she had divine help. Otherwise, how could things be completed so smoothly?
Xie Yunjiao put on her bright red robe and sat in front of the mirror, putting on makeup while the maids helped her comb her hair.
She asked her maid to comb her hair into a simple bun, and she put on some domineering makeup.
She has sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and red lips like blazing fire.
When she flicked her sleeves and slowly walked up the stairs to appear in front of everyone, she amazed everyone.
She is like a fairy from heaven, beautiful yet dignified.
Every step he took made his heart tremble.
Suddenly, many magpies flew over from the horizon, circling in the sky and chirping happily.
Everyone looked at the magpie in the sky and exclaimed that this was a good omen, "Magpie, magpie, good news!"
At this moment, the magpies moved to the sides, and a phoenix suddenly appeared in front of everyone with a burst of scorching heat.
It circled proudly above everyone's heads, and finally slowly flew to Xie Yunjiao's shoulder. It raised its head high and looked proudly at everyone below.
Then it screamed sharply on Xie Yunjiao's shoulder, as if asking everyone to kneel down.
No one dared to be negligent and all knelt down in front of Xie Yunjiao.
Xie Yunjiao looked at the ministers kneeling at her feet, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching.
That night, she just asked Fu Ming to help warm up the atmosphere and add to the fun.
At first, when she saw such a large group of magpies, she thought it was a bit exaggerated. When she saw Ye Fuming call the phoenix as well, she was even more speechless.
This is too exaggerated!
The phoenix cried again, and when everyone looked up, the phoenix disappeared in a dazzling white light.
Everyone knelt down again to congratulate Xie Yunjiao, and said that the phoenix had only appeared to congratulate when the Baiyue Kingdom was founded, but they did not expect to see it again this time.
This is truly a rare opportunity that only comes once in a century.
This proved that their choice was correct, and Xie Yunjiao was indeed the destined queen of the Baiyue Kingdom.
Xie Yunjiao's mouth twitched. If she was praised so highly and exaggeratedly, how could she still leave?
Xie Yunjiao lifted her robe and sat on the throne majestically. Then, she gathered her energy and said in a deep voice, "All the nobles, please stand up!"
"Thank you for your grace."
