As a fellow Yun family member and his own niece, Yun De never imagined that Lin Xiaoman would poison him. Just like the original owner, Yun Yaoye, never imagined that Yun De would label her a "witch" and abandon her like a discarded pawn when the overall situation was already decided and the battle was won.
Because of the exquisiteness of Lin Xiaoman's poison, the imperial doctors could not find out that it was poison, and just thought that Yunde had some serious illness.
In ancient times, medical technology was at such a low level that it was far behind Lin Xiaoman.
Illness struck like a mountain, and within six months of ascending the throne, Yunde, the king of Xiao, fell ill, barely even getting comfortable on the throne. Yunde's children simply couldn't handle the situation.
Although Yun Luoling bore the title of Phoenix Girl and had Shang Chengyu's support, her strength at the moment was limited to defeating the younger generation of Xiao Nation. Her "protagonist cuckold" aura wasn't enough to intimidate the older generation of power holders in Xiao Nation.
Everyone in the Yun family knew Yun Luoling's character. Letting her be the monarch? What a joke!
The Yun royal family began to experience small-scale turmoil again.
Prince Jing Yunhe, who was originally sent to Yicheng to guard the Forest of Beasts, seized the opportunity and came back. Among all the forces, the voice for Yunhe to take the throne was definitely the loudest.
After enduring for a week, Yun De finally died. Yun He hurriedly presided over a grand funeral for him, and then, with the support of the Yun family and a number of other large families, he ascended to the throne without any suspense.
With the new king's ascension to the throne, there was a new atmosphere, and the royal family conferred titles on several princesses and princes.
Whenever they ate, Qingzhu and Qinglan would provide Lin Xiaoman with a lot of gossip in the palace, including two big news.
One of the big news: When Yun De was still struggling to survive, the seventh prince Shang Chengrui arrived at the capital of Xiao Kingdom and diligently showed his face in front of Yun Luoling.
The crown prince Shang Chengyu is not the eldest son of Emperor Xuan. He ranks eleventh. The seventh prince Shang Chengrui is 34 years old this year. He is also a mid-level summoner with level six mental power. He has also contracted a seventh-grade dragon beast. He is just one step away from becoming a high-level summoner.
Among the many princes of the Tianxuan Dynasty, the Seventh Prince is definitely a powerful one.
It was obvious that the seventh prince also came here for the prophecy that he would become the destined true dragon after getting the Phoenix Girl.
Although Emperor Xuan said that Phoenix Girl would be married to the Crown Prince, the choice of the 'Crown Prince' could be changed, and someone might be replaced one day.
What's more, it was Yun Yaoye who was chosen by Emperor Xuan at the beginning, and now Emperor Xuan has not changed his mind. The Seventh Prince who got the news first is obviously here to gain bargaining chips for himself.
Of course, it is also possible that Emperor Xuan wanted to test Shang Chengyu's ability and deliberately released the Seventh Prince to fight him.
Anyway, Shang Chengyu has an opponent.
In the original owner's memory, the seventh prince appeared around this time, and later, more competitors would appear.
At this moment, Shang Chengyu is still acting like a prince, but he will soon become Yun Luoling's bootlicker.
Lin Xiaoman: Haha.
Big news number two: Not long after Yun He ascended the throne, Princess Anle (one of Yun He's daughters) suddenly passed away. According to an unnamed insider, Princess Anle had slept with Shang Chengyu, who then, with all his heart and soul, turned on her and beat her to death!
Of course, there is no way to verify the details, but since Princess Anle died, the new king Yun He has been gloomy all day long. Then a few days later, with an imperial decree, Yun Luoling was sent back to her princess fiefdom, which was Yun De's original fiefdom.
Although they were all members of the Yun family, the Yun He branch was somewhat distant from them. Lin Xiaoman suspected that Yun He had deliberately used his daughter to win over Shang Chengyu, hoping to force him to do something irrelevant. After all, Yun Luoling was a complete stranger to him, and even if Yun Luoling became queen in the future, it would not be of much benefit to him. Unexpectedly, Shang Chengyu, who had fallen for his trick, was furious and didn't give him any face at all, and beat her to death.
Yun He, whose teeth were knocked out, could only swallow his tears and send the man away with a look of indifference.
Upon learning that Yun Luoling, the little bitch, had returned to her fiefdom, Lin Xiaoman hurried to ask for an audience with Yun He and also said, "I want to return to my fiefdom."
Although the monarch has changed, Lin Xiaoman is still Princess Jiahe and has her own fiefdom.
During the monster tide, Yun He stayed in the royal capital, so he heard some rumors about Lin Xiaoman and the War King, but he didn't know the details. It was impossible for Yun De to tell him the truth about this rival.
Yun He, who didn't know the truth, didn't take the rumors seriously at all. He acted like a good elder and tried to persuade Lin Xiaoman to stay. Seeing that Lin Xiaoman was determined to leave, Yun He happily waved his hand and agreed.
Yun Luoling and Yun Yaoye leaving the royal capital will definitely bring many benefits to Yun He.
As soon as she got permission, Lin Xiaoman did not delay for a moment. She took Qingzhu, Qinglan and a team of about a hundred guards assigned to her by Yunhe and set off the next day.
Because there were so many people, they could only travel by land. When riding in the carriage, Lin Xiaoman fully demonstrated his hardworking spirit.
After staggering on the road for fifteen days, she finally arrived at her fiefdom - Xingcheng.
Xingcheng is a city with an area that is neither too big nor too small, a population that is neither too many nor too few, an economy that is neither good nor bad... It is a city of average quality in all aspects.
Upon arrival, Lin Xiaoman met with a group of local officials and said: It was the same as before, and she only cares about collecting money (taxes).
After settling in, Lin Xiaoman sent his two trusted confidants, Qingzhu and Qinglan, to secretly gather a large amount of raw materials. He spent three days creating a large amount of poison. Then, he set off to level up!
After experiments, Lin Xiaoman has determined that if she kills a summoned beast or a demon beast, the experience will belong to the summoned beast that "went into battle" when she kills it.
Qingzhu, who only knew martial arts, stayed behind to look after the house. Lin Xiaoman only brought Qinglan, who was at the beginner level of the second level, with him. The two of them set out from Fengcheng to the Forest of Beasts.
The monsters in the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts basically follow the rule of 'increasing strength from the outside to the inside'.
The edge of the forest is almost full of harmless monsters that don’t even have a rank. The small ones can be killed with a whip, and it is very easy to kill them.
Transforming into a leveling maniac, he slaughtered low-level monsters at the edge of the forest. The level of the Winged Fire Snake rose quickly. Then, Lin Xiaoman found that he could no longer level it up.
'Wing Fire Snake: lv40↑ (upper limit 100)'
'Exp:'
The experience bar is stuck.
Her Winged Fire Snake, which is equivalent to the fourth grade, has obviously been promoted to the Winged Fire Snake King. As long as there are Winged Fire Snakes within a certain range, her summoned beasts can command them like a real monster king.
Of course, it's impossible to command the Winged Fire Snakes to commit suicide, so they can only be bitten to death one by one, but...
On the one hand, experience does not increase, and on the other hand, you can only summon one, so it is useless to be able to pull monsters.
During the break, while Qinglan was catching up on his sleep, Lin Xiaoman silently stared at the '↑'. After staring at it for a few seconds, something unexpected happened.
