The emperor's panicked face suddenly calmed down. "Let them continue fighting. That way they won't have time to worry about me..."
After this incident, Ye Zijing became the emperor's favorite minister.
Ye Zijing used the power in his hands to become the commander of the imperial guards in the capital.
Ye Zijing and Shen Zongyu worked together from inside and outside, and by the time the emperor reacted, the capital had already been occupied by the people brought by Shen Zongyu.
The palace guards were in complete disarray.
The emperor fell to the ground, his crown crooked from his movements, and he looked very disheveled. At this moment, he was just a mortal who was afraid of death.
"Marquis Changping, please let me go. I will give you whatever you want..."
Shen Zongyu's eyes flashed with impatience, and he stabbed the emperor to death with a sword.
He coldly ordered Wei Cheng, "Be sure to kill all the princes and princesses, leaving no one alive. As for the concubines, send them back..."
——
Shen Zongyu did not tell the overly bloody and cruel scenes for fear of scaring the little wet nurse in his arms.
But she had already fallen asleep without realizing it.
The next day.
Previous dynasty.
The emperor sat high atop the dragon throne, his eyes dark and profound as he surveyed the crowd below. "I intend to make Ning my empress. Do you have any objections, my dear ministers?"

The people below felt that the emperor was unhappy and suddenly became quiet.
Ye Zijing's emotions were complicated and intertwined. Various scenes flashed through his mind and he sighed softly in his heart.
Ye Zijing suppressed his emotions, took a step forward, and said in a steady voice, "I believe that Ning is pregnant with three sons and two daughters, and her offspring will be meritorious. Moreover, Ning is virtuous, prudent, gentle, wise, and upright..."
The emperor's expression gradually softened.
Only then did the ministers realize that the emperor wanted Ning to be the queen.
Unexpectedly, Ye Zijing spoke first.
In order to leave a good impression on the emperor, everyone started to speak well of him.
······
In the spring of the first year of Qinghe, Ning Yu was canonized as queen.
Shen Zongyu and Ning Yu stood on top of a tall building, with stars twinkling above their heads, dazzling and brilliant.
The two figures were faintly intertwined.
Shen Zongyu embraced the woman's slender waist, his eyes filled with affection, and asked softly, "...are you willing to share the kingdom with me?"
Ning Yu raised a faint smile and held the man's big hand tightly.
