After the new king ascended the throne, he immediately issued three decrees.

Together, he named his married wife the Queen of the Middle Palace.

Xie Ningyu was granted the title of Prince of Chu.

Yi Yi named his daughter Xie Chunchao as the princess of Zhenguo.

Their family also moved from the Liao Palace to the imperial palace. As the future king of Chu State, Xie Ningyu would not be able to return to the frontier. Now he is studying the strategies of governing the country with Bai Qiusheng and many great scholars in the East Palace every day.

Xie Chunchao was already a married princess, and according to regulations, she had to find another palace, so the emperor gave her another princess palace in Shanling.

But in fact, she still stayed in the Queen's Sun Palace every day, and went to live in the Ruyi Palace prepared for her at night.

After the queen mother entered the palace, she did not want to live in Fengyi Hall where the former queen had lived, so she chose Jiaoyang Hall, which is closest to Taiji Hall.

The biggest worry for the father and mother after they moved into the palace was that the old ministers from the previous dynasty kept urging the emperor to draft a draft. They said that the emperor now only had one son and one daughter. It was not a good sign to have few heirs, and more children were needed to protect the country. worry.

The emperor was so angry and grumpy that he quarreled with the ministers in the court every day. After several times, it was Bai Qiusheng who gave the emperor advice and transferred the pressure created by the ministers to the prince.

From then on, Xie Ningyu was unbearable and had to face a bunch of old-fashioned people urging him to get married and have children every day.

He was now afraid that he would fly away as soon as the court came, leaving no chance for the ministers to catch him.

In the Jiaoyang Palace, the queen asked warmly, "Why haven't you seen Lin Jingrong come back yet?"

"Calculating the schedule, it's time for him to come back."

Xie Chunchao's writing hand paused, not knowing how to explain...

Since that night, she has not told her parents or brother about Lin Jingrong.

First, now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, they have a lot to do, and she doesn't want her family to worry.

Second, she didn't know how to explain it.

"What's wrong?" The queen noticed something was wrong, "Did you quarrel with him?"

When Xie Chunchao heard this, he thought of the last time they met. It was not a quarrel, but a farewell.

The reason for the quarrel was that despite the differences, she was still looking forward to moving on with him, and she knew they were over, so there was no need to quarrel again.

Xie Chunchao shook his head, "There was no quarrel."

She didn't know whether to say that he was dead or that he was originally from the Xia Kingdom and should have returned to the Xia Kingdom now.

"That is how the matter?"

Xie Chunchao understood that this matter could never be hidden, and she would have to face it sooner or later...

"He..." Xie Chunchao put down his pen and said, "Lin Jingrong, he will not come back."

The queen couldn't understand even more, "What do you mean you won't come back?"

"He went home." Xie Chunchao said, "He probably won't come here again."

As she said this, she thought of the way he rode a horse and killed people with a gun in her dream. If he came, I am afraid they would have met on the battlefield. If so, she hoped he would not come...

Never come.

"Going back to the Lin Mansion?" the queen asked, "could it be that you bullied him and made him angry and went home."

Xie Chunchao shook his head, "It's not the Lin Mansion, it's the Xia Kingdom."

Speaking of the Lin Mansion, when Xie Chun came out of the palace before the sun came out, he also met Lin Yushi who came to please him.

Now that she was the princess of the country, Lin Jingrong naturally became the consort.

Although his official position was not promoted, his status among the officials has obviously improved a lot.

Lin Yushi didn't know Lin Jingrong's true identity, and even invited her to take Lin Jingrong back to the Lin Mansion to have a meal together, saying that he missed Lin Jingrong after not seeing her for many days.

His other son is completely useless, and now all hopes are on Lin Jingrong.

Xie Chunchao just glanced at him and did not answer.

I heard that life in the Lin family was not easy, and his son was thinking of ways to gamble all day long. After Lin Yushi disciplined him several times, he became completely desperate and just locked him in the house, not allowing him to go out.

Mrs. Lin was also ignored by Lin Yushi and fell ill.

Xie Chunchao later realized that Lin Jingrong was not kind. He had destroyed the Lin family from the ground up.

I don’t know what grudges he has with the Lin family.

Perhaps, he was really the son of Lin Yushi, but he went to the Xia Kingdom after being abandoned, and he also worked for the Xia Kingdom in the past.

But Xie Chunchao couldn't understand why, if this was the case, there would be traces of his life in Zhuangzi.

Everything about him was like a fog that she couldn't see through or guess.

She didn't want to look or guess. She sealed up everything about Lin Jingrong and just pretended that he had never existed.

"Xia Guo?!" The queen suddenly raised her voice, "What does this mean? When did Lin Jingrong get involved with Xia Guo again?!"

The emperor and Xie Ningyu walked in at the right time. They happened to hear the queen's raised voice and asked curiously, "What is Xia Kingdom? What happened to Xia Kingdom?"

Xie Ningyu: "By the way, why hasn't my brother-in-law come back yet?"

The queen said, "Chaochao said that Lin Jingrong has returned to Xia Kingdom."

"I was asking her what she meant."

Xie Ningyu narrowed her eyes, "Is Lin Jingrong from Xia country?"

The Emperor: "I have long seen that this boy is not simple."

Queen: "You see, no one is simple. Why didn't you say it earlier? Now it's an afterthought."

After the three of them finished speaking, they all turned to Xie Chunchao and asked anxiously, "Chaochao, what do you mean by what you said?"

"Yes, please tell us clearly what's going on."

Xie Chunchao pursed her lips and told everything she knew, "Lin Jingrong is from the Xia Kingdom. As for his status in the Xia Kingdom, I don't know..."

"But I could see clearly that night. His movement, back and hands were exactly the same as the general who led his troops to conquer Chu in my dream..."

After hearing this, everyone fell silent and carefully looked at Xie Chunchao's face. The crying queen shed tears again...

"Uuuuuuuuuah, my poor Chao Chao, why is love so difficult..."

"Chaochao, are you okay?" Xie Ningyu asked worriedly.

The emperor slapped the table and said, "Chaochao, tell my father, do you still like him? If you do, I will tie him back and make him your consort!"

Xie Chunchao was instantly amused, "How could we kidnap anyone back? It makes us look like bandits."

Everyone saw Xie Chunchao smiling, and they breathed a sigh of relief, "Chaochao, what do you think now?"

The queen held her hand and said, "No matter what you think, we are behind you and support you unconditionally."

"Yes, we are here."

Xie Chunchao felt warm in his heart, and then said, "I made it very clear to him that we don't have to see him again in this life."

"I...I just think he is dead now."

Everyone looked at each other in shock, and finally the emperor made the final decision, "I will issue a decree tomorrow that Lin Jingrong drowned on the way back. From now on, there will be no such person in the Chu Kingdom."

The queen nodded and said, "It's better to tell him that he is dead as soon as possible, so that we can find a new consort for Chao Chao."

Xie Chunchao was a little helpless, "Mother, do I have to find a consort? I want to be alone."

"That's fine, it's all up to you."
