"Okay! I'll listen to you!"

Song Qingxue lowered her sword-holding hand and said, "Let her go!"

Xiahou Chun said: "Put down your sword first."

Hearing this, Song Qingxue quickly let go of the sword in her hand.

But Xiahou Jun did not release the Queen Mother immediately, but ordered several guards to arrest her first.

Seeing that she had been pushed to her knees and had no chance to fight back, he put down his sword and pushed the Queen Mother in front of the two guards.

The guards quickly took the Queen Mother away, and then Xiahou Chun said, "Take them all away."

"yes!"

"Qingxue!" The Queen Mother finally reacted at this time and struggled to walk towards Song Qingxue.

But she was a woman after all, and her strength was not as good as that of the guards who had been trained for years, so she could only shout Song Qingxue's name.

"Qingxue! Qingxue!"

"It's okay, little aunt, it's okay, don't be afraid, Xiahou Chun will get his retribution! Don't be afraid!"

Although Song Qingxue said that everything was fine, she felt very confused in her heart.

She didn't know where Xiahou Chongyuan was, nor did she know how prepared he was, but now, she could only force herself to stay calm and wait.

She knew he would come.

Song Qingxue and the Queen Mother were taken away separately. All the ministers in the court were terrified when they saw this scene.

It was Minister Zhao who reacted quickly. When he saw Xiahou Chun walking into the hall in military uniform, he knelt down first and bowed deeply to him.

"Long live our emperor! Long, long live our emperor!"

Upon hearing this, although the ministers were dissatisfied, they all saw the situation clearly, so they quickly followed him and knelt down to pay their respects.

Xiahou Chun stared at the officials lying on the ground and suddenly laughed out loud.

"Stand up, everyone, stand up."

As soon as he finished speaking, he walked directly to the dragon throne, straightened his clothes and sat down.

He had been dreaming of this position for many years, and now he finally got what he wanted.

Because the entire palace was surrounded by Xiahou Jun's soldiers, no one dared to act rashly. After the court session ended as usual, all the officials returned to their homes obediently.

Although they don't show it on the surface, everyone is secretly making plans for their future.

The Emperor and the Regent had just died when Prince Heqin led his troops to force the emperor to abdicate.

After seeing him holding the Queen Mother hostage, everyone knew the truth.

It turns out that the Prince's dullness and honesty were all deliberately pretended to make people relax their vigilance against him! And today's forced abdication and the death of the Emperor and the Regent were a long-planned conspiracy!

The Xiahou family's empire has completely changed.

The officials who had been secretly colluding with Xiahou Chun were naturally very arrogant at this time, thinking that they would be promoted soon.

The rest of those who supported the Regent and the Emperor were all in a panic and began writing letters to return home, planning to resign and return home to the new emperor the next day.

…

Zhaohua Palace.

Song Qingxue sat in the room, staring blankly at the green smoke rising above the incense burner.

As the sky gradually darkened, all the lights in the palace were lit. Zhu Pin'er walked into the room holding an oil lamp and placed it on the table in front of Song Qingxue.

"Miss, it's getting dark, don't you still want to eat?"

Song Qingxue heard the voice and slowly raised her eyes.

"Pin'er, has Lin Xian come to see you these days?"

"No." Zhu Pin'er shook her head.

In fact, she has never seen Lin Xian since the young lady divorced the prince.

Song Qingxue asked again: "Do you miss him?"

Zhu Pin'er pursed her lips and did not answer.

"I know you miss him."

Song Qingxue reached out and adjusted the wick, "I miss him, too."

"Ah?" Zhu Pin'er didn't react for a moment.

Song Qingxue smiled at her and said, "I miss the prince, not your Lin Xian."

"The prince will be buried tomorrow." Zhu Pin'er said in a deep voice.

She didn't know that Xiahou Chongyuan was still alive. When she heard Song Qingxue say this, she felt very sorry for her.

"Well..." Song Qingxue did not continue the topic and said, "Pin'er, do you want to marry Lin Xian?"

"I..." Zhu Pin'er lowered her head and spoke in a very low voice, "I don't know."

"Don't you know?" Song Qingxue reached out and gently pinched her chin, lifting her drooping head.

"What a pretty girl! Lin Xian is really slow to realize your potential. If there is a chance in the future, I will ask someone to arrange a marriage for you two." If she wanted to wait for Lin Xian to realize his potential, she felt that she might have to wait until Pin'er's face was covered with wrinkles!

"Miss, you are joking again." Zhu Pin'er sighed and said, "I have asked people about it. Since the prince's body was found, there has been no trace of Lin Xian."

"It's okay, he will definitely come back." Song Qingxue's tone was extremely firm.

Zhu Pin'er didn't know, but she knew it very well.

Lin Xian was not missing at all, but was going to do some work with Xiahou Chongyuan.

Now she just hopes Xiahou Chongyuan can come back soon, otherwise her innocence may be lost!

Thinking of this, Song Qingxue couldn't help but sigh.

She really didn't understand what Xiahou Chun was thinking! When he and Zhao Wanqiu were working together to harm her, he didn't show any sign of liking her.

How long has it been since then, and he's already praising her beauty?

It turns out that Hua Xin’s scumbag is the most fickle species in the world!

Even though she complained, she was still worried that he would come over and go crazy.

I just hope that Xiahou Chun has been busy with his ascension to the throne these days and has no time to come and see her.

However, God really didn't seem to be on her side.

The more she didn't want to face something, the more it would be given to her.

Song Qingxue had just finished praying in her heart when the eunuch's sharp voice came from outside.

"The Emperor has arrived——"

Tsk tsk tsk, how impatient he is to be the emperor! He hasn't even officially ascended the throne yet, and the emperor has already arrived?

"Miss, what should I do?"

Upon hearing this voice, Zhu Pin'er's face suddenly showed fear.

"It's okay." Song Qingxue held her hand and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, he won't do anything to us."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiahou Chun lifted the curtain and walked in.

"Xiahou Chun, why don't you go and take care of your coronation ceremony? Why do you come here to disgust me?" What bad luck!

"If I have to personally perform even a coronation ceremony, then what use are those servants?"

After Xiahou Chun finished speaking, he took a few steps towards her.

Seeing his actions, Song Qingxue pulled Zhu Pin'er back a few steps, but she was still rude in her words.

"I? Ha, calling yourself that, are you really not afraid of getting in trouble?"

"Qingxue, don't take advantage of my favor and speak wildly and disobey my orders!" Xiahou Jun's tone was a little fierce, and it was obvious that he was very angry about her words.

"Spoil me?" Song Qingxue laughed sarcastically, "This is the first time I've seen a man say the word 'spoil' to his aunt. Xiahou Chun, you are really shameless!"

"Humph! Song Qingxue, I advise you not to be ungrateful!"

Xiahou Chun's face turned pale after hearing what she said. He couldn't control himself for a moment and walked forward to grab her neck and pressed her down on the couch.

"Miss!"

Seeing this, Zhu Pin'er didn't care about being afraid, and rushed over to pry open Xiahou Chun's fingers.

"Let go of the lady!"

She used all her strength to pry his fingers apart, and Xiahou Chun felt pain in her and immediately let go.

But immediately afterwards, Xiahou Jun raised his foot and kicked her hard on the waist.

"roll!"

"How dare you, a lowly slave, fight me?"

As Xiahou Chun said this, he stepped forward and stepped on her stomach twice.

"Xiahou Chun! Stop it!"

Song Qingxue coughed twice and quickly stood up to stop him.

But as soon as she stretched out her hand, he grabbed her wrist and then pulled her into his arms.

"Let me go!"

She raised her foot and stepped on Xiahou Chun's instep, but he didn't loosen his hand at all. She panicked and bit his hand.

Xiahou Chun finally felt the pain and raised his hand to slap her.
