"I rarely work hard, don't you want me to work hard?" I deliberately softened my voice, and he seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

"Did you go to see Han Lingwei just now?" Gu Sinian still noticed it and asked me directly.

"Yeah, I went there, but I left quickly when I heard your voice." I said it half-truthfully. Anyway, he didn't see when I went there, and I deliberately walked into the blind spot of the surveillance.

Except for the last part when I was too shocked and panicked and didn't avoid the surveillance. That part should have been caught by the surveillance, and Gu Sinian would have found it if he had been interested.

Now, talking to him is all about mentality.

"Okay, I'll give you the military token tomorrow morning. However, Xinghe, the rule here in Han Country is..." He choked up halfway through his speech: "Nothing else, go to bed early."

I hung up the phone with doubts.

Looking at Huo Yan’s WeChat with a red exclamation mark, I didn’t know who to talk to for a moment.

I sat by the window until dawn. Huo Huahua knocked on the door and came in to prepare my toiletries. I lay on her shoulder with dark circles under my eyes and said, "Gu Sinian gave me the military token today. I am now the powerful Cold Emperor."

My words made Huo Huahua, who was patting my back, pause for a moment.

"You want the military token?"

Huo Huahua pushed me in shock, held my shoulders and shook his head: "How can you ask for the military token? There is a clear rule in Han Country that the emperor who has the military token can only marry his own brother! No, we can't take this military token. Your father was forced to marry his own sister because his military token was taken away by his sister. Later, he met your mother and knew what true love was."

What Huo Huahua said was what Gu Sinian didn't finish saying last night...

"That's it."

I wasn't particularly surprised. When I took the military token, I had no intention of causing Gu Sinian to make any big movements.

"Yes, the Han Kingdom is to prevent the military and imperial power from falling into the hands of others. If the Han Emperor wants to control the military and imperial power himself, he will not have the freedom to marry. By marrying his own brother, he can ensure the concentration of power."

Huo Huahua looked at me firmly and continued, "We won't be able to escape if we don't accept this military token."

I smiled and said nothing.

At this time, Gu Sinian was already standing at the door, holding a box in his hand, watching me and Huo Huahua talking. He didn't say anything, just stood there to see how I would answer.

"Now that you're here, give me the military token." I walked up to him and took the box.

He didn't dodge.

I didn't back down either.

"It's just a marriage. Isn't Huo Yan also engaged to someone else? That's good. Let's get back at him." I said it calmly, but Huo Huahua was about to explode when he heard it.

"Xinghe, do you know what you are saying? The stability of Han Country is brought about by Master Huo. Only when he restrains Anna's family can you..."

"That's enough. I know it very well." I played with the leopard-like little soldier talisman, and then said to Gu Sinian: "You arrange it. I want both the imperial power and the military power."

After saying that, he closed the door and tried to chase him away.

He didn't even say a word, but turned around to make arrangements. This made me feel even more that my taking the military token was part of his long-planned plan.

"Huo Huahua, how many people did Huo Yan give you?"

My question made Huo Huahua look at me with raised eyebrows and questioning: "Xinghe, what do you want to do?"

"Of course it's to put Gu Sinian under house arrest. Are you really going to marry him?"

I said it easily, but I felt very sad.

I feel gratitude towards Gu Sinian, but I also feel hatred towards him.

But in the end I wasn’t strong enough.

"Have you decided? Then I'll go arrest him and put him under house arrest together with Han Lingwei."

Huo Huahua was ready to help me as long as I didn't marry Gu Sinian.

"Be careful." Based on Gu Sinian's understanding of me, could he have expected that I would rebel against him?

He looked at Huo Huahua with some concern: "They will all be alive, right?"

Huo Huahua nodded: "Don't worry about me."

She didn't want me to worry, so I had no choice but to give it a try.

Gu Sinian is more terrifying than anyone else.

After I watched Huo Huahua leave, I was about to turn around when I heard someone say something sarcastic from behind me: "Chen Xing's daughter is really scheming."

I turned around and saw a woman with silver hair, her long hair casually scattered, wearing a white cotton and linen satin dress, and a pair of ordinary white cloth shoes on her feet.

Very casual, but still gives off a sense of nobility.

"Who are you?" I had a hunch in my heart that she might be Gu Sinian and Han Lingwei's biological mother?

"Who am I? Tell me who I am? I really don't know who I am. Hahaha, who am I? Who can tell me who I am?" She suddenly went crazy, grabbed my shoulders and shook me, then let me go, rushed to the corridor, caught a servant and asked them, "Who am I?"

The servants knelt down one after another: "You are our first lady."

First Lady?

"No, I'm not, I'm not!"

She held the back of her head with both hands, constantly questioning herself, and then looked at me: "Chen Xing, you are here to snatch my brother, right?"

"Chen Xing, do you know what the consequences will be if you take my brother away? I will kill you and everyone..."

When a gust of wind blew, a group of guards came and took her out of my sight.

But when the first lady left, she looked back at me, bit her fingers, and suddenly smiled eerily.

Why didn't she release her at any other time? But when I said I wanted to deal with Gu Sinian, the First Lady was released.

Is Gu Sinian trying to remind me that it was my mother's fault in the first place?

Or do you want me to see how many people were hurt by my mother's interference back then?

But none of these can be a reason for me to be a scapegoat.

When does the next generation have to bear the grudges of the previous generation?

When I returned to my room, I saw several maids had already pushed out a bulletproof vest for me: "Princess Xinghe, Emperor Han said that this is the bulletproof vest you will wear when you go to war. It will be safer if you wear it."

In the eyes of these people, I am still the princess and Gu Sinian is still the Emperor Han.

"Where's Gu Sinian?"

I didn't join them in calling him Emperor Han, and the servants all lowered their heads.

"Why do you still only listen to him when I have the military token in my hand?"

"Or did Gu Sinian force me to kill everyone around him?" My cold words frightened the servants to their knees: "Princess Xinghe... New Emperor Han. We know we were wrong, and Master Sinian is already waiting for you at the front line to clear the obstacles for you."

What a good sentence that clears the obstacles for me.

But when I went out, I told the servant, "No need to follow me."

I drove off by myself.

Not long after they set out, they received a message from Huo Huahua: "Gu Sinian has been arrested. The front lines are now full of people from the slums. Because you are there, their morale is high. Basically, there will be no problem. We are just afraid that there are spies, so you'd better not come."
