Chapter 449: Forever Submission
The Dongling royal family has been in chaos for many years.
It was not until the death of the old Emperor Dongling that the struggle for the throne among the many royal heirs and the killing of each other reached a fever pitch.
In the end, the royal family was left with no successor.
Later, I remembered that a brother and sister were sent to Beizhao as hostages.
Xuan Jichuan was still very young when he was sent to Beizhao. As a little child living under someone else's roof, I'm afraid he would be cowardly and unable to achieve great things!
After discussing it, the officials of Dongling decided to bring him back to the country.
I originally thought that the weak and incompetent were easy to control.
No one expected that the chaotic situation would end in the hands of a sixteen-year-old boy.
He is like a sharp knife that has not yet been sharpened. Once blood is seen, he will reveal a murderous aura.
He suppressed the chaos with an iron fist and killed Dong Lingnigu mercilessly.
It is said that in the month of his accession to the throne, the ground of the Dongling Palace was soaked in blood.
Even at the palace gate, blood was flowing.
The nine clans were killed and the swords at Caishikou were chopped until the blades were bent.
In Dongling, everyone is terrified when they hear his name.
Such measures quickly put an end to the chaotic situation.
It only took three months to completely control Dong Ling in his hands.
He is like a madman and will not give up until he achieves his goal.
He is out of control, does not play by the rules, and has mood swings. If the Third Prince can really win him over, he might have a chance of winning the throne.
The Southern Kingdom is in a turbulent time and will never fall out with Dongling.
The Third Prince stood in the hall with his arms folded: "This cousin of mine has a bad temper, so don't be afraid of him."
His eyes were full of amusement.
Lu Chaochao sat on the empty dragon throne, looking quite weak, and everyone was worried for her.
Prince Dong Ling walked up the stairs step by step. Zhu Mo wanted to stop him, but when he remembered Lu Chaochao's words, he stepped aside.
Xuan Jichuan walked up to Lu Chaochao condescendingly.
The third prince couldn't help but smile.
He stared straight ahead without blinking.
He saw King Dong Ling, who was indifferent and arrogant in front of him, put the sword in his hand on the ground.
Then……
He bent his knees, knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily.
"Dong Ling Xuan Jichuan, nice to meet the young master." The voice was gentle, without a trace of arrogance.
The smile on the third prince's lips suddenly froze!
"Cousin, what are you doing?!" The third prince was so angry that his face changed drastically and he asked hurriedly.
"You are the king of a country, how can you worship an ignorant child like her!!"
Xuan Jichuan didn't even turn his head. After Lu Chaochao nodded, he stood behind Lu Chaochao respectfully.
Xuan Jichuan's eyes were cold and filled with murderous intent.
"The ruler of a country?"
"Don't you know? When I was in Beizhao, I served her wholeheartedly and was her attendant." Xuan Jichuan looked indifferent and couldn't help but scold her.
The third prince was so angry that his face turned red. How could he not know! !
"You are the dignified Prince of Dongling, but they don't treat you as a human being. They make you a servant and a lowly servant. Don't you want to be proud?!" He firmly believed that King Dongling would help him because Xuan Jichuan used to be a servant in Beizhao.
Xuan Jichuan couldn't help but chuckle.
No one knew that the only time he stood up and behaved himself was when he was with Lu Chaochao.
Even her sister Xuanyin survived because of her.
Xuan Jichuan looked at him condescendingly.
"The Third Prince of the Southern Kingdom conspired with me last night with the intention of treason. Why don't we arrest him now?"
Lu Chaochao waved her hand, and soldiers restrained him, unable to move at all.
"Cousin, cousin, you and my mother are sisters from the same mother! Why are you helping outsiders instead of your own family?"
"You are the emperor of your country, how can you be inferior to her!"
"Are you willing? Are you willing?" The third prince had his mouth blocked and was taken away.
Xuan Jichuan lowered his eyes. In front of her, he was always willing to be a servant.
The princes and princesses of the Southern Kingdom looked at each other, then fell to their knees with a plop.
The Seventh Princess said loudly: "Congratulations to the new emperor on his accession to the throne. May the country be forever stable and the people live in peace and prosperity!"
The whole audience celebrated loudly.
Lu Chaochao, from today on, becomes the youngest empress in history.
By the time everything was over, it was already afternoon.
Lu Chaochao was so tired that she could hardly lift her legs, but the little guy was very proud and didn't show it at all, causing all the court officials to nod their heads in satisfaction.
'Ahhh, my legs are going to break! '
'I can't walk anymore, damn it, why are there so many procedures? '
'The crown on your head is so heavy! I drank some porridge in the morning and my stomach was rumbling. '
"Oh my god, I mistook the fat Minister of Revenue for a big elbow... slurp..." He did not forget to raise his hand to wipe his saliva.
Xu Shiyun sighed deeply, she really wanted to cover her ears.
After the process was over, she was supported by the nanny and sent back to the harem.
Xuan Jichuan and Zhu Mo stood behind her, like a solid wall of steel.
Xie Yuzhou covered his ears with his hands, and could only hear the buzzing sound of scriptures in his ears, and his little face wrinkled.
"Your Majesty, the concubines in the harem have not been settled yet..." the eunuch whispered.
"How are they usually arranged?" Lu Chaochao was quite curious.
The eunuch lowered his head and said, "The rule in the South is that when the previous emperor dies, if there are children, they will stay in the palace. If there are no children, they will be buried with the previous emperor."
Lu Chaochao's face darkened: "Buried alive with the dead?"
“Life is precious, how can we casually bury it with the dead?” After death, people have to go through a series of trials in the underworld before deciding whether to enter the animal realm or be reborn as a human.
"Abolish this rule!"
The eunuch advised with a bitter face: "In order to show the royal status, the Southern Kingdom has been passed down like this from generation to generation."
"Then abolish it from my generation!"
Lu Chaochao has always loved to laugh, but at this moment her eyes were stern, and the aura all over her body couldn't help but pour out.
The eunuch knelt on the ground, limp all over and covered in cold sweat, and dared not say another word.
"Send someone to ask those who are willing to stay in the palace. The palace will provide for their retirement and pay them monthly wages. They will not be wronged at all."
"If you want to follow your children out of the palace, you must give them enough money for their retirement in one lump sum."
The eunuch asked tremblingly: "What if the court officials insist on being buried alive with the emperor?"
Lu Chaochao narrowed his eyes and said, "Tell them that they are the most capable ministers of the late emperor. I am worried that the late emperor will not be used to being in such a low position, so I will sacrifice them together! Go down to expand the territory for the late emperor and continue to serve him."
The eunuch shuddered and whispered, "Yes."
Who said that the empress was only three and a half years old and was easy to fool?
Rumors, all rumors! !
Xu Shiyun is the biological mother of the new emperor and should have been honored as the empress dowager.
But she did not want to be included in the royal family tree, nor did she want to call the late emperor her father. Everyone just called her Madam Yun, and her rights and treatment were the same as those of the empress dowager.
"Mom, is my brother back?"
"He is the grandson of the late emperor. He has to help me with this memorial!" Lu Chaochao was dumbfounded when she saw the memorial on the table that was taller than her.
Xu Shiyun smiled a little: "I will be back tomorrow. I was originally only concerned about the crops in the South Country, and I wanted to bring back some high-yield seeds. Since knowing that you have ascended the throne as emperor, he has recorded everything to facilitate your future management."
Lu Chaochao felt more at ease.
At night, she slept soundly on the dragon bed.
In the night sky, a ray of divine light quietly leaked down.
The divine power transformed into an invisible breeze and went straight towards the kings.
Lu Chaochao suddenly woke up from his sleep, his eyes widened.
