She is a heartthrob who wants to live a good life

Wei Yun sighed in his heart: "It has already started."

There is no way. The emperor has been paving the way for Xiao Chongling. He might have noticed something. If Xiao Chongyu were alone, he wouldn't have to take such a risk.

But as long as the emperor is alive, Shen Weicang's identity is a sword hanging over her head, and Xiao Chongyu cannot tolerate the slightest danger to her beloved.

He can only feel at ease when all power is in his own hands.

*****************

In August, bad news came from the southwest that King Jing had disappeared on the battlefield and his whereabouts were unknown, whether he was alive or dead.

When the emperor heard the news, he was so shocked and angry that he vomited blood and fainted, and his health quickly deteriorated.

After several months, there was still no news from Prince Jing. The Emperor fell seriously ill and the Crown Prince became regent.

Xiao Chongyu quickly took advantage of the emperor's serious illness to win over most of the power in the court.

Before the end of the year, the emperor passed away. Naturally, Xiao Chongyu was enthroned as the new emperor, and he scheduled the coronation ceremony for February after the new year.

"Cang Cang, I mean what I say. The position of Queen must be yours. From now on, there will be no other women in my harem, only you."

Xiao Chongyu now has nothing to worry about and can enter and leave Prince Jing's mansion openly.

Shen Weicang still couldn't believe it. In less than half a year, Xiao Chongyu had actually secured the throne?

She didn't believe it. How could Xiao Chongling rebel in his dream, so he just disappeared in reality?

Seeing that the person in his arms was distracted, Xiao Chongyu felt an indescribable panic in his heart: "Cang Cang, what are you thinking about?"

Thinking that he couldn't find Xiao Chongling's whereabouts and even Nie Feiyun couldn't give him any evidence, Xiao Chongyu secretly prayed that he was dead.

Shen Weicang looked at him inquiringly: "Now that Chongyu is the new emperor, I am surprised that he still remembers the verbal promise he made before."

"Cang Cang, everything I said before was the truth, and I will never go back on my word." Xiao Chongyu said firmly.

Shen Weicang didn't look very happy: "But everyone in the court knows that I am the Princess of Jing. How can Chongyu welcome me as the Queen?"

She broke free from Xiao Chongyu's embrace and snorted, "Are you asking me to fake my death?"

Xiao Chongyu explained anxiously: "Why would I use such a stupid method, Cangcang? I will definitely let you enter the palace as the queen with a legitimate reason and in a grand manner."

Shen Weicang didn't seem to believe it: "You said that I will be the only one in the harem in the future. Chongyu is kidding me. How many emperors in history have only one queen in their harem?"

Xiao Chongyu kept walking towards her, and she kept hiding: "I'm afraid you're lying to me like this first. When the time comes, whether you want to choose a concubine or depose the queen and establish another one, it's still up to you to decide."

"gray."

Xiao Chongyu finally hugged her back into his arms and looked at her seriously: "What can I do to make Cang Cang trust me?"

"Unless you give me some of your private soldiers."

Shen Weicang was deliberately testing Xiao Chongyu's bottom line in his attitude towards her.

But after making a fuss for a while, Xiao Chongyu agreed to her excessive request without hesitation:

"I will split the jade talisman for dispatching private soldiers into two parts. Cang Cang can dispatch them at will, but I have to combine the two parts with Cang Cang's part before I can dispatch them. How do you think?"

Shen Weicang was surprised. How could Xiao Chongyu agree to this?

She turned around and hugged his waist with a little emotion: "Will Chongyu blame me for being so demanding?"

Xiao Chongyu hurriedly shook his head:

"Why would I miss Cang Cang so much? Cang Cang is my queen, the love of my life. If you ask for my life, I will give it to Cang Cang without hesitation. But it's just asking for my private soldiers. What's the big deal?"

Shen Weicang didn’t know whether it was true love or false love, but she knew that the power in her hands was real.

She shyly took the initiative to kiss Xiao Chongyu on the face: "Chongyu, I am just worried about gains and losses, afraid that you will change your mind about me, you won't be tired of me, right?"

Xiao Chongyu hugged her tightly: "How could that be? Marrying Cang Cang as my queen is my greatest wish in this life. I'm also worried that Cang Cang will get tired of me."

I can't guarantee whether I'm tired of Shen Weicang or not.

She raised the corners of her lips slightly, but in her heart she was thinking about how to find out the whereabouts of Xiao Chongling.

A light bulb suddenly lit up in Shen Weicang's mind, and he thought of someone.

****************

Chu Mingyue was also extremely shocked when she learned that Xiao Chongyu would ascend the throne next year. This was too different from her previous life.

Moreover, there was no such thing as Xiao Chongling's disappearance or the emperor's death from illness in the previous life.

She couldn't help but suspect that these were all the work of Xiao Chongyu.

However, when the late emperor was seriously ill, Xiao Chongyu had already cleared out most of the people in the court who did not belong to him by investigating the murder and disappearance of Xiao Chongling.

The remaining people at this time are either his people or those who dare not go against him.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Xiao Chongyu held great power, and that life and death depended on his thoughts. Even if one could see that the death of the late emperor and the disappearance of King Jing were related to him, who would dare to jump out at this time?

The Jiang family, which was supported by the late emperor, has been almost wiped out by Xiao Chongyu. The General's Mansion of Protector of the Nation is in a rather awkward situation at this time.

The General's Mansion of Protecting the Nation has always been secretly on the side of King Jing. Although it has never been made public, Xiao Chongyu is not a fool, so how could he not know it.

Now that Prince Jing is missing, Xiao Chongyu's attitude towards the General's Mansion of Protectorate the Nation is unclear. The families of high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the court have been replaced with just a few words from Xiao Chongyu, and the General's Mansion of Protectorate the Nation has not seen any changes and can only live in fear.

Chu Mingyue secretly hated Xiao Chongyu in her heart, wondering why he was always so cool and superior in his past and present lives.

If she revealed the secret, would Xiao Chongyu still be able to keep his position?

But now she didn't know whether Xiao Chongling was dead or alive. She had to meet Nie Feiyun and explain everything to him.

However, for some reason Nie Feiyun never replied to her letter. Does she have to go to the southwest in person to see Nie Feiyun?

The coronation ceremony was imminent, and just when Chu Mingyue made up her mind to go to the southwest to find Nie Feiyun, he returned to Beijing.

Xiao Chongyu summoned some generals back to Beijing, and Nie Feiyun was among them.

Nie Feiyun went to the southwest secretly. Later, Nie Ji asked for the emperor's grace, and then a troop of the Nie family army was transferred to Nie Feiyun for his command. Now Nie Feiyun is already a well-known General Nie in the southwest.

Nie Feiyun returned home and first went to pay a visit to his parents. He was mercilessly beaten with twenty lashes by General Nie, and then he returned to his study as if nothing had happened.

"Second Young Madam."

Chu Mingyue brought Luyin to Nie Feiyun's study, and his followers were standing outside the door.

She nodded and motioned for her followers to look at the tonic soup that Lu Yin was carrying. "I'm here to serve soup to Fei Yun. I have something very important to tell him in person."

The attendant was in a difficult position. The Second Young Master's temper had been unpredictable recently, and he had just specifically instructed that no one was allowed to disturb him.

Chu Mingyue saw his hesitation and said, "I'll go in by myself."

As she spoke, she pushed the door open, took the soup from Lu Yin, and walked in.

Nie Feiyun heard Chu Mingyue talking to her followers early in the morning and thought that she would be tactful and stay away from him, but he didn't expect her to push the door open and come in.

"Didn't I tell you that no one is allowed to disturb us?"

Chu Mingyue walked up to him calmly and put down the bowl of soup: "I think you will want to hear what I am going to say."

Nie Feiyun said without giving any face: "Not interested, get out."

"It's related to Xiao Chongyu and King Jing, and you're not interested either?"

Seeing that Nie Feiyun still looked impatient, Chu Mingyue had no choice but to bring up Shen Weicang: "This matter also concerns your sweetheart, you really don't want to listen?"
