The Emperor naturally granted his request. Of the eight princes, not one could be without military talent. Since Zhou Hao was determined to pursue a military career, the Emperor would naturally support him.
However, the Emperor was unaware that Zhou Hao had never intended to assist anyone. From the very beginning, what he coveted was the cold, hard, yet supremely powerful position beneath him!
After Zhou Hao left, the capital once again descended into a bloody struggle for the throne.
But no matter how fiercely the princes fought outside, a warm atmosphere remained within the side hall of Weiyang Palace.
Ever since Mu Yunge’s assassination attempt and their subsequent confession of love, Yan Fei had become even more attached to Mu Yunge than before, almost never leaving her side.
Furthermore, with the Yan family finally exonerated, the only burden on Yan Fei’s heart was completely lifted. His only desire was to protect his little princess.
That evening, Mu Yunge, as usual, dismissed everyone, leaving only Yan Fei inside.
“Xiao Xi, come up here.” Mu Yunge patted her bed.
Seeing this, Yan Fei was overjoyed, but his face showed some hesitation: “Princess, this is against the rules.”
Hearing this, Mu Yunge rolled her eyes slightly: “What’s against the rules? Come on up here, my husband!”
Upon hearing this, Yan Fei’s expression, which had been trying to control itself, changed drastically in an instant. He then pounced on the bed and pinned her down.
“Princess, please call me that again, okay?”
Yan Fei’s eyes shone with an astonishing light.
Mu Yunge smiled gently, then leaned close to his ear and called out, “Husband!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Fei could no longer restrain himself and fiercely sealed her lips with his.
…
Three years later, the Empress passed away, and the Emperor’s health also deteriorated rapidly.
Even at this time, the Emperor still showed no intention of establishing an heir apparent. Instead, he became increasingly suspicious of the remaining princes.
Only the Ninth Princess, who had no connection to the throne, remained favored. Every time the Ninth Princess visited the Emperor in the palace, he was in a good mood.
That day, Mu Yunge was fooling around with Yan Fei inside the inner room. Just as Yan Fei removed her outer garment, she heard Xiao Hei’s warning.
[Master, something terrible has happened! The heroine has saved the Emperor!]
“Hmm?”
Mu Yunge immediately had Xiao Hei switch the camera to the heroine’s perspective.
At that moment, Zi Ling was standing in front of the Emperor, while opposite her, a big, rabid wolf was lunging at the two of them.
“Your Majesty, run!” Zi Ling shouted to the Emperor.
But the Emperor’s health was much worse than before; how could he outrun a dog?
He could only stand there dumbfounded.
Just as the wolf was about to tear into Zi Ling, a sharp arrow pierced the air and killed the wolf instantly.
Zi Ling was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground as if she had lost all her strength.
At this moment, the Emperor stepped forward, hugged her, and roared, “Quickly, summon the imperial physician!”
Seeing this scene, Mu Yunge couldn’t help but sneer inwardly.
Knowing she couldn’t be Zhou Hao’s woman, she’d set her sights on the Emperor?
Zi Ling couldn’t possibly be unaware that the Emperor would die in six months.
But Mu Yunge didn’t intend to concern herself with such matters. Once Zhou Hao found out, his affection for Zi Ling would likely plummet to negative levels!
…
And as Mu Yunge predicted, the next day, the Emperor bestowed the title of concubine upon Zi Ling the very next day.
The court officials, knowing the Emperor’s unpredictable temper, dared not offer any advice.
Zi Ling, on the other hand, looked at the eunuchs and palace maids kneeling in front of her and regretted not having done so sooner!
If she had done so earlier, she could have enjoyed a longer period of luxurious life!
Two days later, Mu Yunge heard Xiao Hei’s report.
[Ding! The hero’s love for the heroine -20. The current love point is -10.]
