During his leisure time, the Regent sent troops to search for the emperor, but after three months of searching without success, all the civil and military officials supported the Regent as the new emperor and the Regent's wife as the empress.
The empress dowager was deposed and exiled to the cold palace. Miao Shouzheng led his troops to rebel and was exiled to the imperial mausoleum, where he guarded it for the rest of his life.
A group of conspiring ministers were given a special amnesty because the new emperor ascended the throne. Those who were innocent were fined for three years' salary!
Half a month after ascending the throne, civil and military officials proposed that Jing Yuchen enrich the harem, expand the family, and consolidate the royal bloodline of Xianchang, so that Xianchang could become more prosperous.
Naturally, all the civil and military officials knew that Jing Yuchen and Ni Yueshan had a very good relationship, so how could they easily agree to enrich the harem?
During the morning court session, Jing Yuchen calmly announced, "The Empress has been diagnosed by the Imperial Physician and has been pregnant with an heir for three months. Once the Empress gives birth, if it's a boy, he will become the Crown Prince. If it's a girl, then we can discuss the selection of a concubine with me!"
Then, a shrill voice rang out in the hall—
"Withdraw from the court!"
After the court was dismissed, Jing Yuchen went to Ni Yueshan's Kunning Palace, but saw Ni Yueshan dressed in men's clothes and looking very heroic.
It was three months old, still a young baby, so I didn’t see any bulge in the belly.
Jing Yuchen was dressed in bright yellow, which made him look even more noble and dignified. He frowned and asked, "Are you leaving the palace?"
Ni Yueshan nodded: "Yes, you should change your dragon robe quickly. Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong are leaving Xianchang and heading to Canglie today."
"The next time we meet, it might be when I give birth, or when Ruo'er reaches the age of twenty. In any case, hurry up and leave the palace with me so I can see you off!"
Shao Lecheng stayed in the capital for so long before leaving, just to help Jing Yuchen clean up the civil strife in the capital, and he really wanted to see what Jing Yuchen would look like sitting on the dragon throne.
Today, as a subject, I have stood before His Highness, seen enough, and my wish has been fulfilled, so it is time for me to leave.
At the city gate, Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong arrived early. Seeing a carriage stopped nearby, Duan Gouqiong patted Shao Lecheng and said, "Here we are!"
Shao Lecheng jumped off the carriage with a toothpick in his mouth, waiting for the person in the carriage to come out. Unexpectedly, the person who came out was wearing a black robe, and his resolute and cold face made Shao Lecheng a little stunned.
He spat out the tooth pick and asked curiously, "Aren't you going to guard the border?"
Zou Yangyao rolled his eyes at Shao Lecheng and said, "Your Majesty has been so kind as to allow me to wait until my wife gives birth and holds a full-moon banquet before setting off again!"
As he spoke, he turned around and extended his hand to support the person who was cautiously getting down from the carriage.
Shao Lecheng watched Zou Yangyao helping Xiao Chuer down the carriage with great care, and his eyes seemed strange.
"What, her leg is broken?"
Before Zou Yangyao could get upset, Duan Gouqiong had already slapped Shao Lecheng on the head. Shao Lecheng reached out and touched it, looking at Duan Gouqiong with a depressed look: "You hit me?"
Duan Gouqiong snorted and jumped off the carriage.
"Of course, she must be pregnant, otherwise how could she be so precious? And her leg is broken? Can you have a little intelligence?"
Shao Lecheng was quite depressed, but he didn't dare to retort.
Xiao Chuer, who was wearing a white dress, covered her mouth and smiled, thinking that the relationship between Shao Lecheng and Duan Gouqiong was very interesting.
At this time, another carriage slowly drove over. When the door of the carriage was opened, the person inside was Ni Yueshan.
As soon as the carriage came to a complete stop, Ni Yueshan jumped out and sighed, "The scenery outside the palace is still the most beautiful. What's that thing inside the palace? It's either walls or roofs. The palace maids all wear the same clothes. I'm tired of seeing them every day!"
As he spoke, he stretched his arms, stretched himself and yawned without caring about his image.
Shao Lecheng, Zou Yangyao and the other three present felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Just now, Duan Gouqiong said that Zou Yangyao protected Xiao Chuer because she was pregnant, and it was his duty to protect her.
But Ni Yueshan was also pregnant, but she was careless and jumped down by herself...
After Jing Yuchen got off the carriage, he stood behind Ni Yueshan. He looked puzzled, "Why are you all looking at me so strangely?"
When Zou Yangyao and the others came back to their senses, Shao Lecheng coughed awkwardly and said, "After we part today, I don't know when we'll meet again. However, after Zou Yangyao goes to the border, if you don't consider me a Canglie man, you can always invite me into your tent to reminisce about the past and have some wine and mutton."
Zou Yangyao immediately put on a cold expression and said, "You are not allowed to drink alcohol while you are in the army."
Shao Lecheng's mouth twitched in embarrassment. Why was this person so disrespectful?
The awkward atmosphere lasted only a moment, and Duan Gouqiong smiled and said, "That's easy, just come to Canglie for a drink and experience the local customs and culture!"
Shao Lecheng quickly echoed: "Yes! You can also experience the unique customs and culture of Canglie!"
But Zou Yangyao still had a cold face and said seriously: "As an ordinary general, entering Canglie without reason is considered a violation of military regulations and should be dealt with according to military law!"
"You, Zou Yangyao, when did you become so stubborn!" Shao Lecheng glared at him and wanted to rush forward to fight with Zou Yangyao.
Zou Yangyao still stood there calmly, not feeling threatened at all.
Xiao Chu'er beside him chuckled softly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. However, as the Prince Xianchang and the consort of Canglie, as an important figure in the diplomatic relations between the two countries, if you can move freely between the two armies without causing any gossip, you can actually go wherever you want."
Ni Yueshan on the side followed up and said: "Yes, in life, just be happy as long as you are happy. Don't be so taboo. And be happy. Your Qinggong is so good..."
