"I suspect our Crown Princess wants to turn Da'an into a fiefdom of the Great Yan, and then she will become a prince."
"Sure, we won't be picky. Isn't her reason for not wanting to fight just to avoid deaths? If the Great Yan invades, we'll be the ones who suffer."
"But our Crown Princess has never been an empress. The Dragon Princess of Great Yan ascended the throne. How prestigious it is to be an empress! Our Crown Princess has never even achieved that. She only became a prince. I find that quite regrettable."
"What's there to regret? Didn't you see that everyone paid more taxes this year?"
"Why pay so much? Is it what the government requires? Are they short of military funds? Then I'll go home and get some more. The memorial that the Tatars sent to our Crown Princess at the city gate is too bullying. We can't let the Tatars fail us."
"No, it's because the palace is going to hold an enthronement ceremony for the Crown Princess."
"A coronation, huh? Then I'll go back and get some more."
Mingzhu has been in a daze these past few days, the first time since she took power.
The decision-making power for the first matter is not in your own hands.
She sat beside Empress Xu, with the still-alive Emperor Da'an beside her. The old man's hair was completely white, and he was saying treasonous things to the mother and daughter.
"My son, isn't the dragon robe your mother embroidered for you beautiful?"
"The more I think about it, the happier I get. How can my daughter be so amazing? She has the support of the people! She has no choice but to become the emperor!"
"Mom, there's no need for that, it's a waste of money!"
Mingzhu had no idea that managing affairs was so expensive. When she was a princess, the little girl was carefree, eating, drinking, and shopping every day. She bought whatever she liked, such as jewelry and clothes.
Later, she became the Crown Princess, and she saved every penny she could.
"It costs money, but it's something the people of Da'an are willing to do."
Now, when Empress Xu goes out, she stands up straight, and everyone says her daughter is good. How can a mother not be proud?
The woman sat down next to her husband, nudged him a couple of times, and said:
"Did you hear that? Your daughter is going to ascend the throne and become the emperor. You have to obediently affix the imperial seal to our Mingzhu, understand?"
"If you don't behave, I'll send you to meet the King of Hell."
The current Emperor of Da'an is in a terrible state. Not only is he barely clinging to life, but the old ministers who used to visit him all advised him to abdicate.
"Mother, don't be harsh with Father. He doesn't have many days left to live anyway."
Mingzhu was somewhat looking forward to it; she too could become the ruler of a country.
Even if it's just for a day, it's still a dream come true.
On the day of her coronation ceremony, the pomp and circumstance were no less than those of Huo Xiaolong. However, this time, Princess Mingzhu stood on the Zhaixing Pavilion, looking down at her subjects and receiving their homage.
The woman's eyes were brimming with tears; she was truly crying.
Not only were there ordinary people, but also the young ladies from wealthy families who had previously been on good terms with him, and even those who had previously disliked each other and tried to trip each other up.
"The people of Da'an congratulate our Lord Mingzhu on his ascension to the throne! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"The people of Da'an congratulate our Lord Mingzhu on his ascension to the throne! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
Mingzhu spread her arms and raised them slightly, indicating that they should stand up.
"Thank you all!"
They knew that Mingzhu had deployed all his troops to the border with the Tatars, and they also knew that the Great Yan and the Great An had ceased hostilities for half a month to celebrate Mingzhu's ascension to the throne.
This is a congratulatory gift from the Dragon Girl of Great Yan to Mingzhu.
The people of Da'an didn't have any other thoughts.
Our Crown Princess is so wonderful; she should have everything that others have.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
From this day forward, the Lord of Da'an is Mingzhu.
"Long'er, why don't we break in while everyone's celebrating Mingzhu's coronation?" Da Ni'er didn't understand, and she wanted to fight.
Huo Xiaolong looked at the sparrows in the tree and asked in return:
"Tell me, was it easy for Mingzhu to rise from that spoiled and willful princess to the Crown Princess?"
"It's definitely not easy."
"Does that girl want to kill the people of Da'an, or the Tatars?"
Without even thinking, Da Ni'er blurted it out.
"Tatars! When?"
"When Da'an becomes my territory."
Huo Xiaolong felt that Mingzhu was indeed something special. She had also seen the memorials that the Tatars had submitted to Mingzhu, and the more she read them, the angrier she became. Wasn't this just an attempt to exploit someone who had no descendants?
After the two of them finish chatting, you don't need to go by yourself; Da Ni'er can manage on her own.
The Great Yan still had relatively unimpeded access to Da'an.
Did they resist?
They resisted.
But no one died, making this the most boring match Da Ni'er had ever played.
Even the little quail princesses were taken care of by Mingzhu, and the innkeeper and others arranged the best places for them.
I feel really bad for making things difficult for the little quail princess.
Look at their vision and perspective; I've fallen short.
It really can't compare to even a little bit.
The people of Da'an were defeated in battle, and in such situations, the people were usually very afraid of the enemy army.
But the next day, they went about their business as usual, and their business even improved significantly.
Their emperor said not to be afraid. If it is really the Great Yan who are bullying you, go and complain to the most beautiful woman in the army. She will definitely be severely punished.
"How could you add white sugar to my tofu pudding?"
"So what? I'm from Jiangnan."
The breakfast stall owner in Da'an didn't understand, even though these were soldiers of the Great Yan Dynasty.
He wondered why this person wanted white sugar from him.
I thought it was for dipping in steamed buns.
As a result, it was immediately put into the tofu pudding.
"I'm from Jiangnan too! We don't have any!"
“Da’an Jiangnan and Dayan Jiangnan are not the same Jiangnan region. Our way of eating is authentic, and we are genuine Jiangnan people.”
"You're talking nonsense!"
Today, Da Ni'er led a group to patrol this area. She heard people arguing and setting fires from afar. Long'er said that it's okay to kill people. Whoever bullies you, you can fight them. But if they don't make a move, we shouldn't go too far.
Da Ni'er agreed; that's how it was done when they fought the grassland dragon.
The grassland king rushed over excitedly. Da Ni'er thought to herself, "Finally, someone can make a scene. Shouldn't we make an example of them?"
Otherwise, she would have nowhere to unleash her full potential in martial arts!
"It's salty!"
"Sweet!"
"Today, even if your Great Yan Dragon Girl comes with tofu pudding, it has to be savory!"
"..."
The dark-skinned grassland king was speechless at the back of the crowd. Damn, he's got guts!
