"Isn't the Queen here?"
They were afraid of being silenced and did not dare to step forward.
Finally, the commander of the Royal Guards arrived, found something wrong, and immediately entered the secret room.
Everyone filed in and saw the miserable state of the Queen and Xuan Mingzi. They were shocked by the situation.
"ah!"
Soon, the news of the death of the Queen of the Western Neighborhood spread throughout the Western Neighborhood.
Seeing that the war situation was not optimistic and the queen of the western neighbor died an unexpected death, people were in panic for a while.
"Right now, we need to stabilize the government and support a new emperor. If we continue fighting, our western neighbors will be in trouble."
The ministers from the western neighbor knew that the emperor was in a bad condition and that delaying was not a solution.
They wanted to find one of the princes to inherit the throne, and the little prince was chosen.
He was still in shock from what happened last night, and now he was about to be crowned emperor, so his expression was a little dazed.
"Sister Lianyi, am I going to be the emperor?"
Lianyi smiled gently, "Yes, you are already the emperor. Now all you have to do is protect yourself and don't let these things disturb your mind."
Her comfort worked, and the little prince looked at her with increasing dependence, "Sister Lianyi, you will protect me, right?"
"Of course, but you are no longer the unpopular prince you were before. You must call yourself "Zhen". Don't forget it."
The little prince nodded and forced himself to be alert to attend the morning court.
However, soon, differences arose between the Queen's faction and the old royalists.
Especially when they saw such a little kid becoming emperor, they felt extremely unhappy.
"If you are unhappy, just bring the queen back to life. We won't have any objections then. Now that she's gone, do you still want to leave this position to her?"
The royalists thought they were ridiculous, but in the eyes of the Queen's faction, these were only temporary.
Even if the queen dies, she has the ability to come back to life.
The royalists thought they were unreasonable, and the two factions argued endlessly for a while and finally started fighting.
How could the little emperor handle these matters? He was just a child.
Lianyi knew that if things continued to develop in this way, something bad would happen, so she simply secretly took the little emperor to a safe place.
The little emperor was so frightened that his face turned pale. Lianyi was the only person he trusted.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will protect you no matter how fiercely these people fight. But if you want them to calm down as soon as possible, you need to recall the soldiers who are fighting." She said in a gentle tone.
This situation has occurred because the defenses in the capital are weak.
The little emperor nodded and thought that this method was not bad. The most important thing was that he believed in Lianyi.
"Sister Lianyi, don't worry, I will protect you too."
He immediately issued an imperial decree to recall all the soldiers fighting in the frontier.
The moment Lianyi saw him deliver the imperial edict, the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground. She rubbed his head and said, "Be good."
The little emperor doesn't have many people he can rely on now. Lianyi is so gentle to him and can protect his safety, so he trusts her very much.
"Sister Lianyi, thank you for saving me." He was just a child after all, and days of fatigue made him drowsy.
Being beside someone he trusted, he fell asleep quickly and soon fell into dreams.
Lianyi felt very sympathetic towards his situation, but she also knew that what was least needed here was sympathy.
It is already very difficult for the little prince to survive now, and we should not ask for anything else.
Besides, the fortune of our western neighbor has been damaged, so we really shouldn’t continue the war.
With the imperial edict, the neighboring army to the west quickly withdrew from the border and returned to the imperial city to protect the safety of the little emperor.
Lianyi stayed by the little emperor's side and watched with her own eyes as all of the queen's confidants were beheaded. Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Your Majesty, you have a long life ahead of you. This is just the beginning. You will need to learn how to protect yourself and become a qualified emperor."
The little emperor stood beside her and nodded heavily when he heard this.
"I will definitely be a good emperor."
This incident can be regarded as a lesson for the western neighbors, leaving them with a psychological shadow on the idea of war.
Everyone subconsciously ignored the queen's death, as if only in this way could they forget the pain.
At the same time, Sheng Mingyu and the Imperial Master also told everyone the good news.
The soldiers cheered and couldn't believe they had won.
Sheng Mingyu took Gu Yunni's hand and said with a smile, "The western neighbor's army has indeed retreated. We can return to the capital soon."
Everyone was extremely excited and became more convinced of Sheng Mingyu.
Seeing how excited they were, Sheng Mingyu did not spoil everyone's fun and directly arranged a celebration banquet.
At the celebration banquet, everyone was smiling, and everyone had a rough idea of the outcome of this battle.
"As expected, those who do evil will eventually perish. The Queen of our western neighbor deserves her punishment."
Isn't that what she deserves? She did so many sinister things, and caused war between two countries and brought suffering to the people. Such a person deserves this end.
When people talked about the queen from the west, they only felt disgust.
Gu Yunni was not surprised by their behavior, knowing that in their hearts, the Queen of the Western Neighborhood was a person who did all kinds of evil.
The matter ended successfully and everyone wanted to go home as soon as possible.
Sheng Mingyu also smiled and held Gu Yunni's hand, her eyes full of tenderness.
"We will be going home soon. You have worked hard during this period." He felt extremely guilty when he thought of Gu Yunni who was pregnant and still working so hard.
"How can it be that hard for me? I'm just helping you do some things within my ability." If she didn't intervene this time, those people would have found him.
It’s better to take the initiative and deal with them first.
The eldest princess was not far away, and seeing how loving they were, she couldn't help but feel a little envious.
Gu Yunni noticed her gaze and asked, "Is the Princess going back to the capital with us this time?"
The eldest princess thought about it carefully and felt that she was not suitable for traveling?
So many things have happened, and the pain in her heart has long been healed. Now she just feels that being alive is better than anything else.
He nodded and said, "Let's go back to the capital and take a look."
She doesn't have any other thoughts now, she just hopes that she and her family can be safe and sound.
Just when everyone was having a great time, Gu Yunni suddenly covered her stomach, which scared Sheng Mingyu so much that he immediately stopped eating with his chopsticks.
"National Master, please come to Yun Ni and see what's going on."
Gu Yunni quickly stopped him, "It's just that the child kicked me, why make such a fuss?"
