Chapter 23: Flame of Hope



"Yuening, you can eat it. You are weak and pregnant, so you need it more than I do."

Ying Zheng looked at the woman who was completely devoted to him tenderly, and ripples began to form in his heart.

He did not doubt the authenticity of the so-called elixir.

It's not only because of the appearance of such a magical object as sweet potato, but also because he trusts her.

Compared to his deep and reserved nature, his young wife was exceptionally simple and easy to understand, like a flawless, delicate and fragile lotus.

"Well... I've eaten. Ah Zheng, you want to eat too?"

Chu Yuening felt a little guilty. She had just said that the immortal had only given her one, and now she said that she had eaten it herself.

Isn't this a contradiction?

Anyone with a discerning eye would know there was something fishy going on.

But she wasn't ready to tell anyone about the system yet; this was her last resort.

If Ying Zheng changes his mind in the future, she will have the confidence to leave him...

But when I thought that Ying Zheng would be so gentle and intimate to other women in the future, my heart ached.

The changeable emotions during pregnancy made her burst into tears suddenly, and crystal tears dripped down her little face.

"A Zheng, if you don't like me anymore, will you be so nice to other women?"

Chu Yuening's sudden crying caught Ying Zheng off guard.

Those tears seemed to drip into his heart.

"Yuening, no, I have never been in contact with other women. You are my wife forever."

Ying Zheng hugged his treasure tightly and coaxed him softly.

Ever since he confirmed his feelings, Ying Zheng has already decided on Chu Yuening.

Before this, he didn't care about love between men and women, and even thought it was a huge waste of time.

But when he met his destined person, he gave her his whole heart.

He would not be tempted by other men, but was afraid that Chu Yuening would like other men.

After all, she was extremely attracted to men, but he would never give her a chance to escape.

"Really...really?"

Chu Yuening was coaxed into laughing by the man's sweet words, but she still had a trace of doubt.

Ying Zheng had no choice but to summon Zhao Gao and take out a wooden box with gold thread.

"This is the Phoenix Seal, which can be used to manage the affairs of the harem."

"In addition, I allow you to jointly manage the government of the previous dynasty."

As soon as the words fell, the palace fell silent.

Zhao Gao, who was sitting below, bowed his head respectfully, but his heart was filled with turmoil.

When I woke up, why did the world change?

Let’s not talk about why Lord Chu is so close to Your Majesty.

The fact that His Majesty actually gave the Phoenix Seal to Lady Chu and allowed her to interfere in state affairs was enough to shock him.

Even if His Majesty likes Lady Chu, he can make her the queen.

But since ancient times, there has never been a queen and an emperor ruling together, right?

No one cared about Zhao Gao's complicated thoughts.

Chu Yuening opened the box in a daze, and inside lay a white jade seal carved with a phoenix.

"A Zheng, there is no precedent for an emperor and empress to jointly rule the country. I don't want you to be questioned by the officials."

Chu Yuening was extremely surprised. She didn't expect that what Ah Zheng said before was true...

But the more A Zheng thought about her, the more she couldn't bear to see him face the criticism of the world.

"Nothing, isn't there a precedent before me, the First Emperor? Who dares to criticize me?"

At this time, Ying Zheng once again displayed the majesty and edge of an emperor.

"Yuening, there's no need to refuse. I believe you have the ability to lead the Qin Empire towards prosperity together with me."

His Yue Ning is not a bird in a cage, but a phoenix soaring in the sky.

"Okay, A Zheng, I won't let you down."

She was narrow-minded, but she obtained this identity with the help of modern thinking and the system as a golden finger.

Couldn't she achieve something?

"By the way, A Zheng, you should take this pill first."

Chu Yuening took out a small porcelain bottle from her sleeve, actually from the system space, and handed it to Ying Zheng.

"Okay, as you say."

Ying Zheng had no suspicion and simply opened the bottle, poured out the pill and swallowed it.

As the pill entered the stomach, it melted quickly and turned into several warm currents that flowed to the limbs and bones.

Ying Zheng only felt that those old wounds seemed to be repaired by a mysterious force.

In a short while, he felt better than ever before, as if his body was filled with endless power.

"A Zheng, how do you feel?"

"Excellent, thank you Yue Ning."

Ying Zheng lowered his head and gently kissed the cheek of the person in his arms with his thin lips.

Everyone has selfish desires, but Yue Ning was not stingy with such a precious elixir.

The first half of his life was filled with calculation, indifference, and hypocrisy, and he had never felt complete and selfless love.

"Hmph, there's no need to say thank you between us."

Chu Yuening said proudly.

In her opinion, as Ying Zheng was her lover, she naturally had to share any good things with him.

Chu Yuening is a very sentimental person. Once she chooses a partner, she will be open-hearted and unreserved.

The two of them were affectionate for a while, and Chu Yuening reluctantly left the warm and strong chest.

"A Zheng, go and take care of government affairs."

"Yuening, come with me to handle this."

Ying Zheng was not just talking about sharing power, he would put it into practice.

"good!"

Chu Yuening didn't hesitate and was able to share some of A Zheng's hard work.

The two of them sat back in front of the imperial desk. Chu Yuening picked up a memorial and took a look at it, but soon she frowned.

He picked up several other memorials and frowned even deeper.

Without exception, these memorials have one thing in common.

Most of the content is flowery flattery, praising how wise and brave Your Majesty is and how hard he works to govern the country...

Only a small part of it is serious business.
