Chapter 110 Get down here quickly!
Everyone's faces darkened upon hearing this, and their gazes all turned to Xiao Yan...
Lu Nian didn't react much, only gently pinching his brow. In truth, he was already used to Jiang Qingyan's fickle nature...
Shen Yuan stared at Xiao Yan below the stage with great interest. Xiao Yan was a well-known cold-faced eccentric in Xia Kingdom, and even the late king was somewhat wary of him when he was alive.
Being publicly harassed today, I'm actually quite looking forward to his reaction...
But Yi Luo was not calm. Why was her husband flirting with everyone he went around?
He held the imperial edict in front of Jiang Qingyan and said coldly to Xiao Yan, "Stop talking nonsense. Here's an imperial edict. Quickly find a eunuch to read it aloud!"
Xiao Yan glanced at Jiang Qingyan behind Yi Luo, without showing any displeasure on his face. Then he waved his hand and casually arranged for a small eunuch to read the imperial edict.
Actually, when Xiao Yan heard Jiang Qingyan's words just now, he was somewhat delighted. No one had ever joked with him like that before...
Although the joke sounded rather awkward, for some reason, it warmed my heart...
After the imperial edict was read aloud, the hall erupted in an uproar…
"What? The King is actually going to abdicate the throne to the Third Prince?"
"Wasn't the Third Prince sent to Da'an for a political marriage? How can he return to ascend the throne?"
"Could this imperial edict be fake?"
"Yes! The imperial edict must be fake!"
Seeing the crowd discussing it, Rong Yan stepped forward and said loudly, "I can testify that this imperial edict is genuine. When His Majesty was writing the abdication edict, I was grinding ink beside him."
Prime Minister Rong echoed, "His Majesty mentioned this matter to me a few days ago. I thought His Majesty was joking, but it turns out it's true..."
One of the ministers stepped forward and asked doubtfully, "Leaving aside the authenticity of the imperial edict, this old minister only wants to know the identities of these young men around the Queen, why they are here so late at night, and why the King is unconscious?"
At this moment, Yun Yuxuan and Gulimi's army had arrived and surrounded the main hall.
Everyone turned around at the sound and saw the Third Prince stride into the hall; they already understood...
The so-called "king's voluntary abdication" is clearly just the third prince's attempt to usurp the throne... It just sounds more legitimate with that imperial edict...
Yun Yuxuan strode forward, bowed, and accepted the imperial edict with both hands. He then turned to the crowd and said, "Since my royal brother trusts me so much and has entrusted the Xia Kingdom to me, then I have no choice but to respectfully comply."
At this moment, someone in the audience shouted, "Third Prince, are you trying to usurp the throne?"
No sooner had she finished speaking than Gulimi plunged her scimitar into his chest.
As the scimitar was pulled from his chest, the man collapsed to the ground, lifeless moments later…
Yun Yuxuan said coldly, "I ascended the throne by imperial decree. If anyone dares to spread rumors again, their entire family will be executed!"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately shut their mouths. Their own lives were secondary; the sin of implicating their entire families would be far greater…
Xiao Yan's expression remained indifferent; he had long since grown tired of the current king's cruelty and incompetence.
If it were the Third Prince, perhaps he would see that interesting young master more often…
Shen Yuan stared at Xiao Yan, who was silent below the stage, and raised an eyebrow. Strange... why was he so calm?
Seeing that no one objected, Yun Yuxuan walked to the dragon throne and slowly sat down, looking down at the audience.
Prime Minister Rong was the first to kneel and say, "Your humble servant pays respects to Your Majesty. Long live the King!"
Seeing that even the Prime Minister was acting this way, the others stopped hesitating. After all, a wise person knows when to yield... and they all knelt down to pay their respects.
With the matter settled, Yun Yuxuan smiled with satisfaction. "I will hold the coronation ceremony early tomorrow morning. My beloved ministers, please go back and get some rest."
The crowd below shouted in unison, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
After everyone had left, Yun Yuxuan finally relaxed. He slumped onto the dragon throne, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled…
Jiang Qingyan walked to Yun Yuxuan's side and said softly, "I have done what I promised you. Now it's up to you."
Yun Yuxuan nodded with his eyes closed: "Yes... After I ascend the throne tomorrow, I will announce that the Xia Kingdom has submitted to Da'an..."
Jiang Qingyan chuckled and said, "Alright, after I accompany you on your successful ascension to the throne tomorrow, we will return to Da'an."
After saying that, she glanced at Rong Yan beside her, gently patted Yun Yuxuan's shoulder, and whispered in his ear, "By the way, we arrived just in time. Rong Yan was not defiled and is still a virgin. Don't worry."
Yun Yuxuan was completely confused. What did Rong Yan's innocence have to do with him? When he opened his eyes, he only saw the departing figures of Jiang Qingyan and the others...
Rong Yan stared at Jiang Qingyan's retreating figure and slowly said, "Your Majesty... I... wish to request an imperial decree to leave the palace..."
Upon hearing this, Yun Yuxuan turned to look at Rong Yan. When he saw the redness and swelling on her face, he couldn't help but frown: "Your face... how could my brother treat you like this..."
As the only daughter of the Prime Minister, Rong Yan was pampered in the palace from a young age, living and studying with the princes and princesses. They could be considered childhood sweethearts...
The Emperor has loved Rongyan since childhood and vowed to marry her when he grew up; this is something everyone knows…
I never expected that he would treat Rong Yan like this after finally marrying her... It's truly heartbreaking...
Rong Yan sneered, saying indifferently, "It's all in the past... Now I just want to leave the palace and get out of here..."
Yun Yuxuan nodded, his eyes full of sympathy. "Okay, I promise you."
Upon hearing this, Rong Yan finally smiled from the bottom of her heart, bowed respectfully to Yun Yuxuan, and strode away from the palace.
She is finally free…
Meanwhile, things were quite lively in Shenyuan's bedroom. There were five people, but only one bed and one couch. How were they supposed to sleep?
Jiang Qingyan lay down on the bed first, waving her hand at the four of them: "You guys continue with your research, I'm going to sleep now, I'm just too tired today..."
After saying that, he closed his eyes...
Dividing it into equal parts is just too difficult; let them do it themselves…
The four exchanged bewildered glances when Shen Yuan leaped onto the bed, lying down next to Jiang Qingyan. He grinned mischievously, "This is my bedchamber, so I'm definitely sleeping in it… You three, please make yourselves at home…"
Lu Nian sighed softly. Her husband was too tired today and didn't want to make things difficult for her, so she went to the bedside and lay down.
Gulimi gritted her teeth in anger, but obediently went to the bedside and lay down. After all, when you're under someone else's roof, you have to bow your head...
But Yi Luo is born with a rebellious streak, so why should Shen Yuan get to monopolize her husband? What's wrong with his bedchamber? The husband belongs to everyone...
He took off his shoes and socks, tiptoed onto the bed, and lay down on the other side of Jiang Qingyan.
Shen Yuan felt the blanket being pulled away from him and quickly opened his eyes.
Seeing Yi Luo lying next to Jiang Qingyan, he frowned and said, "Why did you come up here? Get down here right now!"
