Chapter 229 Finale
midnight.
Yu Chen and Murong Qingling confided in each other in the dormitory
"Weiwei, I'm sorry for you... I..."
Murong Qingling leaned in his arms, put her hand over his mouth, and said softly:
"Brother Chen, what are you talking about? I know everything you want to say! She saved your life, and for this alone I should be grateful to her for the rest of my life! Besides, there's nothing between you two, right? To be honest, even if there is something, what's the harm?
"As long as you are safe and sound, that's the best! After going through so much, I just want our family to be well, healthy, and live a stable life. I don't ask for anything else!"
Yu Chen touched her face lovingly and whispered: "Yeah! It's okay. Even if I forget everything, my subconscious physiological reaction won't deceive myself. I feel empty inside, because that's a place that only you can live in! No one else can!"
Murong Qingling felt shy at the sudden confession: "We are already an old married couple, so it's not too corny to say these things!"
"In the past, I didn't say enough. I felt regret after dying once. I felt that there were still many things I hadn't done and many words I hadn't said! So, from now on, we must follow our hearts and leave no regrets!"
"Yes, thank God for giving our family of four a chance to live again! Now that the children are grown up, it's time for us to enjoy life!"
"By the way, Weiwei, which bastard told you this? Was it Li'er or Yuwen Ting?"
Murong Qingling was stunned for a moment, then laughed
"What? Are you going to go and settle the score with them? Or do you think they can't tell me? I'm their biological mother!"
"That's not the case, I just think it's unfair! These two promised me, and then told you behind my back. Isn't that obviously betraying me?"
"Humph! You still want to hide this from me? I shouldn't know?"
"No, no, that's not the case. I'm just afraid you'll get angry if you find out..."
"Am I such a petty person in your eyes? Let alone one woman, I wouldn't be afraid even if you had ten! I'm the queen of a country now! A legal husband! I'd love to have a whole harem of male favorites! Who would care about you then?"
Yu Chen was stunned after hearing these words. He was speechless for a moment. He looked at Murong Qingling and couldn't help but wonder, is this still his gentle and considerate wife?
In the past, he was in charge of external affairs, and she was in charge of internal affairs, and their cooperation was seamless. But now, it's completely reversed. She is the queen of a country, and he is just an ordinary citizen...
The son is the crown prince, and will be the future monarch of a country. The daughter is the princess, and the son-in-law will soon be the monarch of a country as well. Even the two little grandchildren are princesses and grandchildren of the emperor with titles...
It seems that he has the lowest status and identity in the family of four. Now he is lying on his wife's bed, and it is not legitimate. Thinking of this, he is very upset. At his old age, he lives such a humble life...
Yu Chen narrowed his eyes and asked, "So, you have a male lover?"
“Not at the moment!”
"Does that mean there will be one in the future?"
"It depends on your performance! Humph..."
Yu Chen turned over and pressed Murong Qingling under him, lowering his head and kissing her...
After the kiss, Murong Qingling's face turned red
"I, your husband, will personally teach you the price of saying the wrong thing!"
"Brother Chen..."
…
After returning to Yueqi Kingdom, Helian Chi used thundering means to quickly attack and eliminate the Crown Prince Helian Chen and the Queen's faction.
The evidence is conclusive. The prince and the queen conspired to murder the emperor and attempt to take the throne. Their crimes are unforgivable. They were stripped of their titles and thrown into prison!
The group was leaderless, and with Yun Li's status, all the civil and military officials begged Helian Chi to inherit the throne!
"We hope that His Royal Highness will inherit the throne and lead Yueqi Kingdom to glory for the sake of Yueqi Kingdom!"
The ministers shouted three times in unison, their voices so loud and deafening!
They undoubtedly admired and looked up to this war god prince, but at the same time they were afraid of him!
I admire his extraordinary ability, wisdom and courage, but I am afraid of his ruthlessness and cruelty!
But having him lead Yueqi Kingdom is what everyone expects, and only he can lead Yueqi Kingdom to a new height!
Helian Chi stood in front, his narrow black eyes sweeping over the crowd. He raised his arm and said calmly, "Everyone, please stand up! I agree to succeed the throne!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience cheered!
When the people heard the news, the whole country cheered.
Five days later, it was an auspicious day according to divination by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory.
The coronation ceremony finally arrived. On this day, Helian Chi wore a bright yellow dragon robe, his black hair was tied up high, and he wore a crown on his head. Just standing there, he exuded the demeanor of a king who looked down on the world and was feared by all.
With an unparalleled handsome and stern face, he walked towards the platform step by step with firm steps. The woman next to him had a bright and noble temperament, as dazzling as a lotus. She wore a red floor-length phoenix robe with a lifelike phoenix embroidered in gold thread.
The two men walked hand in hand, and the civil and military officials standing on both sides looked at them in awe.
On the high platform, the eunuch held the imperial edict and read it aloud:
"By the Will of Heaven, the Emperor declares: Following the sudden passing of the late Emperor, I have deeply considered the heavy responsibility entrusted to me. As the succeeding Emperor, I, relying on the blessings of Heaven and Earth, the counsel of my ancestors, and the tradition passed down by successive sages, grant amnesty to the entire nation and change the country's name to Jinghua. I decree this!"
The eunuch then read out another imperial edict:
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor declares: Princess Murong Li of Lanxi Country, dignified and gentle, descended from a noble family, a noble and elegant land, and a virtuous woman of domestic virtue. To uphold the maternal virtues and bring harmony to all nations, you are hereby enthroned as Empress, in charge of the Phoenix Seal and all other matters. This is my decree!"
"Long live our emperor!"
"Long live the Queen!"
At this time, all the officials looked at the emperor and empress on the high platform. They all felt that the emperor and empress were so well-matched, a match made in heaven!
At this time, two handsome men, accompanied by a graceful and elegant woman, walked slowly towards the stage on the red carpet.
The eunuchs and ladies-in-waiting behind them shouted:
"The Crown Prince of Yu State is here to congratulate you!"
"Her Majesty the Queen of Lanxi Kingdom is here to congratulate you!"
Helian Chi and Yun Li looked at the newcomer with indescribable joy in their hearts and hurried down the platform.
"Mother, Father, Big Brother! You're here!"
When the civil and military officials heard the emperor addressing several people, they were all stunned and puzzled.
It is understandable to call the Queen of Lanxi Kingdom "mother", after all, their Queen is the Princess of Lanxi Kingdom. But calling the Prince of Yu Kingdom "big brother", what is the purpose?
And what was that middle-aged man's name? Father? Why was he called Father?
The four of them walked happily into the hall, leaving everyone else confused. Everyone was whispering to each other and guessing about their various identities!
