> They have suffered for three lifetimes, it is time for them to follow their own hearts. What others think is right may not be right, what others think is good may not be good, only your own happiness is real. Banxia is worth it, Ruolan is worth it, Feitian is also worth it.
Even if the ancient Buddha was reborn and became furious, he would take Cang Nian's place to personally bring down divine punishment and take Ruolan's life.
Thinking of what Long Feili and Xiao Qi said to him by Linlang, and thinking of his own thoughts before he flew to the lower world despite following Long Feili's instructions, Luzon smiled lightly. When he learned that Qiaochu was pregnant, he gave her a medicine from the heaven, which could conceal the fetal breath and make Shangguan Jinghong unaware of Qiaochu's pregnancy, and reduce her concerns. But it was also a precious medicine of Buddhism, which could save lives. Therefore, although Qiaochu was fed an abortion drug by Shangguan Jinghao, the child's life was still saved. Although he didn't know what would happen later, could he say that he had no selfish motives? In his heart, he actually hoped that the two of them would continue to be connected and there would be a result.
However, at this moment, meeting the new emperor's gaze, he still shook his head, "Your Majesty, Luzon does not know."
Shangguan Jinghong has recovered some of Feitian's memories. Although he knows that he once sealed the Tianshen Village, he does not know that he used his powerful divine power to seal the Tianshen Village, which even the ancient Buddha could not break the seal. The Fox King's magical power has not been sealed by the ancient Buddha, which can allow Ruolan to be reborn.
But hiding the whereabouts of Ruolan's soul was the Fox King's last wish, so they still had to fulfill it, because it was the new life that the Fox King gave to Ruolan. The rest was up to them.
The new emperor didn't say much, his eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "Think it over carefully. If you can't give me the information I want within five days, I will kill Tianshen Village."
Luzon was shocked and slowly turned and left.
Shangguan Jingcong smiled coldly in his heart. Five days were enough for him to take Xiaoman away.
Everyone was worried when they saw the situation. Emperor Rongrui sighed heavily. After he abdicated, the new emperor sat by and watched.
Mo Cunfeng is still the deputy director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He appoints new officials according to the will of the new emperor and sentences the rebel general Zhang Zhongmou to death. Shangguan Jinghong thinks that the situation is difficult and there must be a judge. He asks Lao Tie to arrange people to monitor everyone. Later, he finds this minister and simply uses his trick to move troops to the mouth of Chaoge Mountain, locks up the soldiers from entering and leaving to buy food, and allows them to inform Shangguan Jinghao, which makes Shangguan Jinghao anxious and quickly promotes a secret talk with the King of Xixia and others...
Lao Tie, Jing Ping, and Jing Qing were appointed as imperial attendants and first-rank attendants; the vacancy in the Ministry of War was filled by Zuo Bing; the original officials of the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Punishment remained unchanged, and Prince Ning supervised these three ministries; although the officials of the other three ministries were used by Shangguan Jinghao after he occupied Chaoge, in view of the situation, they were treated leniently and remained in office, supervised by Prince Xia; Xia Haibing and Zong Pu remained in their original posts, and the sixty or seventy princes also remained in their original posts; the post of Lang Xiang was dismissed, and the post of Prime Minister was temporarily vacant, and would be replaced by someone from the old officials or the new talents who passed the imperial examinations later; the virtuous prince was demoted to a commoner, but still received the salary of a prince; General Lang was loyal to the country and was granted the title of First-Class Duke; Qin Donning was named Princess Yongrui, and General Qin was dismissed from his post, and his troops were temporarily under the command of General Lang. In consideration of Princess Yongrui's merits, she was spared the death penalty, and was ordered to confine herself to the mansion with her sons, and not to step out of the mansion easily. Her eldest daughter Qiuyu became a nun... Those who made contributions in the war were rewarded with gold, silver and land.
Other officials will be retained in their posts as appropriate, but all of the former crown prince's old subordinates will be dismissed and severely punished, and will be temporarily replaced by other princes and officials.
Since the Beidi Qiao tribe had rebelled, Qiao Zhenning was dismissed from his post as lord and demoted to a commoner. He and his wife Feng Qing were imprisoned in Chaoge. The court sent officials to temporarily manage the Beidi tribe and then elected a new lord.
In addition to severely punishing the prince's old subordinates, the new emperor's new policies were benevolent and wise. For a time, everyone in the court was very happy. Fang Ming was the chief of the Imperial Household Department and continued to read out the internal edicts.
It was stated that the fact that Concubine Zhuang was a ploy to lure the enemy, and a special decree was issued to restore Concubine Zhuang's reputation, depose the former Queen Lang, and allow her to stay in the harem palace to serve the Emperor with other concubines in consideration of the Lang family's merits, and confer the title of Noble Concubine to Ning Wang's mother, Concubine Li...
As for Concubine Zhuang's affairs, people like Prince Ning knew that Concubine Zhuang and the little prince had been sent back to the Xia family. This decree was issued by the new emperor for Prince Xia's reputation.
However, for some reason, the new emperor did not posthumously confer the title of empress on his mother, Concubine Chang. Rongrui was very surprised after hearing the decree. He frowned and wanted to say something, but then he remembered something and finally held back.
Just like the matter of Concubine Chang, the whereabouts of the Crown Prince and Fang Fei, two people who were once favored by Emperor Rongrui and the six harems, are also unclear.
The new emperor also conferred titles on Concubine Lang as Empress, Shen Qingling as Imperial Concubine, and Lin Yu as Imperial Concubine.
When everyone was surprised and curious about the identity of the new imperial concubine Lin Yu, they saw that the woman who slowly walked in from the blue carpet was actually the former crown princess, and they raised their eyebrows.
But when Fang Ming summoned and conferred the title, he clearly mentioned the new concubine, Lin Yu.
Everyone in the hall was shocked.
Everyone knew why the Crown Princess changed her name. After all, the new emperor could not openly take his brother's wife as his concubine.
But even if he wanted this stunning beauty, he could have done it in secret, rather than in public. The name could have been changed, but the world would still be talking about it—
What on earth is this young man thinking? !
Besides, I heard that the new emperor loved the former concubine Qiaochu very much. Qiaomei and Qiaochu have always been at odds with each other, and even Concubine Shen is at odds with Qiaochu. Concubine Lang's family has made great contributions, so it is understandable that she was made queen, but these two...
For a moment, everyone in the hall was shocked, even Fang Ming, who was announcing the decree, had a complicated expression. Qiao Zhenning and his wife, who were kneeling beside him, were surprised and happy.
The new emperor quickly walked down the stairs and helped Qiaomei, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Shangguan Jingchong sneered, threw half of the military token to the ground, and said coldly: "Thank you for your love, Your Majesty, but Jingchong's ability is limited, and I am not qualified to take on the responsibility of supervising the three departments. Please return the military token. Jingchong is willing to leave Chaoge with his family and live freely from now on."
Without waiting for the new emperor's approval, he just said "Thank you, Your Majesty," and left.
Many people don't understand why Shangguan Jinghong seems to want to use Shangguan Jingcong, after all, it is rumored that the prince was very fond of Concubine Qiao in the past. But they understand Shangguan Jingcong's dissatisfaction at this time.
The new emperor was not angry, but just frowned and suddenly smiled gently. Her heart was pounding, she had finally waited for him!
*
When Xiaoman walked to the bushes outside the Golden Palace, she saw Shangguan Jingchong walking quickly with a frosty face, as if he was just coming out of the palace. She wanted to call him, but hesitated, thinking that Shangguan Jingchong would not like to see her here.
It has been more than half a month since she returned to Chaoge from Kangcheng. Every time she thought about why she was not afraid of death and picked up Shangguan Jinghong's fallen hairband on the ground and handed it to him.
Her heart was filled with sadness at the time, and there was a voice shouting at her not to fly and die.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Jinghong took the hairband and whispered, "Yes, I can't give up. I will wait for her to come back and get her back."
After returning to Chaoge, she recuperated in the Xia Palace every day until today, when Shangguan Jingchong went to court to attend the new emperor's coronation ceremony. She wanted to come and see, but Shangguan Jingchong said that they would leave Chaoge tomorrow.
But Shangguan Jingcong didn't seem happy.
She finally came over quietly on her own... I don't know why.
She thought, she would take one look and then leave.
Just one glance.

Just this slight hesitation, Shangguan Jingcong had already walked away.
Xia Zongguan was injured and was still recovering. She stole Shangguan Jingcong's token and asked a few servants to drive over. Several children were still waiting outside the hall. Shangguan Jingcong seemed to hate his brother very much. She made a quick decision and went back early, so that he might be less angry.
Outside the palace, the maids and eunuchs were standing in order on both sides, and a group of women dressed in their best clothes were standing in the middle. They all looked like royal relatives, watching the coronation ceremony of the new emperor—Pei Lan and the Seventh Princess were both there. She had seen them in the army before. Although the time was short, she felt quite familiar with them. Dong Ning was not there. Was she in the inner palace
She smiled and greeted, "Fifth sister, Seventh sister..."
Everyone turned around in surprise and saw that it was Xiaoman. Peilan and the Seventh Princess were startled but then smiled back. Perhaps it was because this woman's eyes and eyebrows were somewhat similar to those of Qiaochu in the past. Even though her personality was completely different from Qiaochu's, they did not treat her as Shangguan Jingchong's concubine like others did. Shangguan Jingchong was a man who changed women like he changed clothes, so they did not take her seriously and instead liked her a little.
Prince Ning was the new emperor's most valued brother. Seeing Peilan's attitude, the other girls made way. Xiao Man was lucky enough to get to the front row. She was just feeling happy when she heard the Seventh Princess whisper to Peilan, "Fifth sister, I feel sad... From what you and I have seen in the army, doesn't he love sister Qiao the most? I really don't understand. Now that sister Qiao's body is still warm, it would be fine if he didn't confer a title posthumously, but he still... Tell me, how can Qiao Mei's character compare to sister Qiao? She's pretty, but he looks at her so blatantly, without blinking his eyes. Do you think that emperors are so heartless... Come on..."
"Seventh sister, stop talking!" Peilan interrupted her in a harsh voice.
"I… "
Peilan smiled bitterly, "Maybe, he still loves Qiaochu the most in his heart, but these women are also what he wants, just like my master, doesn't he have many concubines? The same goes for the Seventh Master. I feel sorry for Qiaochu, but in this situation... He is already the emperor, not the eighth prince of the past. There are some things we..."
As she spoke, she suddenly realized something and glanced at Xiao Man, who quickly shook her head, "I didn't hear anything, don't kill me to silence me."
Peilan and the Seventh Princess were stunned when they heard her words, and they were amused by her for a moment. Xiaoman looked into the palace to prove her innocence, although she didn't know what she wanted to see. Maybe she wanted to see if Shangguan Jinghong's injury had healed. Although everyone respected this man, she felt that he was a little pitiful.
This sight made him stunned again. There were three women in front of the new emperor, and he was staring at one of them with deep eyes and a hint of tenderness. The woman suddenly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive Lord Qiao and the other two. The lord was coerced by the prince and had no intention of opposing the emperor."
The new emperor was silent for a while, but said, Lin Yu, from now on you don’t have to kneel when you see me.
The palace was shocked when they heard this. Dong Ning walked out quickly, looking anxious. He knelt down and said, "Brother, we can't let these two go. Think about the suffering Sister Qiao endured in the north..."
Some people are talking...
Xiao Man looked at the officials in a daze. Some of them advocated that the officials must be severely punished, while others tried to please the new concubine and speak for her.
She had heard stories about the new emperor and his former concubine in the army. She knew that they seemed to be very much in love. She also knew that the new emperor had fallen out with the old emperor because of that woman. She could never describe how she felt.
At this moment, she suddenly felt angry. She pursed her lips and was about to leave. When she lowered her eyes, she found several flower branches neatly placed at the entrance of the hall. The buds were still small and about to bloom, but they were very pink and beautiful.
She was stunned, and walked forward involuntarily, slowly bent down and picked up the flowers.
"How dare you! The emperor ordered that the Frostless Flower be placed here and must not be moved. How could you touch it without permission?"
Xiao Man was startled by a sharp shout of shock and anger, but she saw several female eunuchs on both sides with angry faces, and the two leading them were grabbing towards her.
She was startled, staggered, and fell backwards - she pressed her stomach, thinking she was dead, but she heard several voices calling "Your Majesty" in a low voice, and a strong wind came from behind, and she fell into a slightly cool embrace.
A faint scent of ambergris lingers in the nose.
"Madam, are you okay?"
A slightly hoarse voice sounded slowly above her head. Before Xiao Man could react, the other party had already let her go gently. She turned around in a hurry, but was suddenly bumped into the dark eyes in front of her - it was him last time in Kangcheng, and it was him this time too... He was standing in the hall, far away from her, but suddenly came over, faster than the people nearby.
Xiao Man patted her head, which was a little off the mark, and said to herself, this man is not a good person. She pursed her lips again, but still said thank you respectfully. The new emperor's face suddenly changed. Thinking of the sharp shouts of several eunuchs just now, she thought to herself that it was not good. It seemed that this flower must not be touched. She was in big trouble.
She quickly handed the flowers to the new emperor and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that this is not allowed to be touched, and you didn't put up a sign to explain it, so you can't blame me... Here, I'll give it back to you."
After a long while, there was no movement from the other party. She was surprised and looked up nervously, only to see the white-haired man staring at her in a daze, and everyone in the hall was also stunned.
Outside the palace, Peilan knew the origin of this flower, and thought it was bad, so she rushed in with the Seventh Princess, both knelt down, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, my ninth sister has just entered the imperial city and does not know the etiquette. I did not mean to offend you, please forgive me."
When the new emperor heard this, his eyes flickered slightly as if he had come back to his senses. However, he did not say anything. He just took out a handkerchief from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Man, "Hua Ci, your hand."
At this moment, the other half of the people in the hall were also stunned.
Xiao Man was nervous at first, afraid of being held accountable, but now she was relieved. She saw that her hand was tightly grasping the flower stem, her palm was pierced, and blood was oozing out of her skin bit by bit. She didn't want to take the handkerchief, so she just pushed the flower into the new emperor's hand, "Thank you, Your Majesty, take care of yourself. I'll take my leave. See you later. Bye."
Her eyes were a little dry, so she closed them uncomfortably, turned around and left, without noticing the flowers falling from the new emperor's hand behind her.

"Lin Xiaoman."
A voice behind her sounded slightly harsh, and Xiao Man was so scared that she almost fell down again. She suddenly felt that this man was not so pitiful. He was indeed a little sinister and scary, but she could not ignore him, so she turned around and stared at him expressionlessly.
"I will grant you a marriage with my ninth brother. You should have a legitimate status."
The new emperor's expression changed a little and he said lightly that Xiaoman wanted to fall three times, which should be a happy thing, but she just didn't like what he said, nor did she understand it. This man was not only pitiful and terrible, but also nosy. After a long while, she frowned her delicate eyebrows and looked at him unhappily.
The new emperor laughed at himself, thinking that she was saying that he was meddling in other people's business.
This little girl speaks so many weird words. Where did she learn that
If it was someone else who touched his flowers, he would probably take that person's hand. However, he couldn't get angry at all towards this girl. In fact, when Kang Cheng first saw her and held her in his arms, he actually... didn't want to let go.
At that point, he almost thought she was the one.
However, he could not sense any of Qiaochu's aura and temperament in her. She only had some similarities between her eyebrows and eyes and Qiaochu's, but her temperament seemed to be very naughty, a bit like the little fox in the past.
Ruolan's personality will never return. After so much suffering, she is no longer his little fox. She has become the leader. Only in this way can she protect herself.
In fact, he is more
