Reborn, seduced the prince and killed his wife to become his favorite concubine

Chapter 225 Unless I Die

So from today on, their status is different again.

The main wife is naturally the queen, and there is nothing wrong with that.

What about the others?

Concubine Shen was very favored and her status must have been high.

Yunmeng is also the prince's right-hand man. In terms of favor, she is second only to Concubine Shen.

What about yourself?

Liu Yunshang stood beside Yunmeng. Although she was born of a noble family, the Liu family had lost power and was convicted and exiled. She was no match for those honest families.

The prince looks down on her. She has no background and no favor. How can she survive in the palace?

Everyone was happy, except her.

Afterwards, Yan Chu and Su Rong returned to Yayuan together to discuss what to do next.

Shen Zhishu also returned to Wang Academy.

"Xiao Die, do you think the emperor's order is a little strange?"

Let’s put joy aside for now.

Because Yan Chu's succession to the throne was quite different from the previous life.

The emperor had not yet died, nor had he defeated King Shuo, leaving him without the ability to fight back.

Even if he ascended the throne at this time, wouldn't King Shuo's power still be a threat?

"This is not surprising. Perhaps Your Majesty knows that his time is up. What is strange is Prince Shuo's reaction. Judging from our prince's reaction, it seems that the succession to the throne is going smoothly without any obstacles. When the imperial edict came out today, did Prince Shuo accept it willingly?"

Xiaodie analyzed it very seriously.

"how can that be possible?"

In his previous life, even if King Shuo had only a 20% chance, he would have tried his best and would rather risk everything than surrender.

"No matter what he thinks, the situation is settled now. Our prince has come to this position legitimately. Even if King Shuo is extremely resentful, he can do nothing about it. In terms of strength, he is not as good as our prince."

Xiaodie smiled and waved her hand.

This is a great thing, why bother with things that are none of their business?

"Instead of worrying about these things, you should think about what title our prince will give you after you enter the palace. Apart from the queen, the most honorable position is the imperial concubine, which is also unique. However, I have heard from the people that as long as the queen is alive, there will be no imperial concubine..."

Fluttershy began to mutter.

Concubine position?

Shen Zhishu was somewhat dazed.

In his previous life, even when Yan Chu became the emperor, he only had one woman, Su Rong, but now there are four in his mansion.

Since he broke his oath when he was a prince, then for an emperor, isn't it normal to have three palaces and six courtyards?

Wouldn't Su Rong have to watch helplessly as a new person is added to the palace every once in a while?

"Okay, we only have three days. If we enter the palace, it will be difficult to get out again. Think carefully about what to bring into the palace."

That was also what happened later.

For now, she should take care of herself and not make any mistakes.

I thought that at such a critical moment, Yan Chu would be too busy and exhausted and would not come again.

Unexpectedly, at night, he quietly got into bed and skillfully held her in his arms.

The sleepy Shen Zhishu suddenly woke up.

"Why didn't you tell me you were coming? I was already asleep."

She mumbled, finding a comfortable position to lean against him, with her hands hooked around his waist.

"I wasn't going to come originally. I was discussing something in the study tonight, but my mind was really in a mess and I couldn't think, so I came here."

Yan Chu just hugged her and had no thoughts tonight.

"What is the prince thinking about?"

"King Shuo's expression has been a little strange recently, as if he was seeking peace with me. Yesterday he..."

He concealed nothing and told in detail everything King Shuo had done.

Shen Zhishu was also shocked.

Because if that's the case, King Shuo won't fight for this position?

"What did he say to the emperor yesterday? Did he really not want the throne, so the emperor no longer hesitated and passed the position to me directly?"

This is the thorn, and he will be restless until he figures it out.

"If it were you, under what circumstances would you give up this position?"

Shen Zhishu didn't understand.

But she felt that perhaps Yan Chu, who also cared about the throne, would know.

He was silent for a moment.

"Unless I have no other options left, I will fight to the last soldier, and there is no way out for me to survive."

Then he said very seriously.

Shen Zhishu was somewhat shocked, but this answer was expected.

"I think King Shuo feels the same way, otherwise he would never give up that position."

"But now is not the time."

Obviously Yan Chu also felt that King Shuo was the same as himself.

"Maybe he didn't give up?"

If there is no reason, this is the only explanation.

"Perhaps he has other ideas, but we haven't figured it out yet. Maybe he wants you to let down your guard and think that the outcome is certain after this imperial decree. Maybe he is waiting for you to let your guard down so he can deal you a fatal blow."

It's all speculation anyway, so anything goes.

Shen Zhishu is free to give full play to his own ideas, even if they are unreasonable.

Yan Chu didn't interrupt her.

I just listened to her talking nonsense, her thoughts were a little scattered and her eyes were confused.

Before he knew it, Shen Zhishu fell asleep while talking.

There is no definitive conclusion on this matter.

Yan Chu didn't find the answer either.

But the next day, when he entered the palace, his mind was made up.

there is always a solution to a problem.

What kind of conspiracy and intrigue could he not guard against?

The imperial edict had been issued, and when he went to court again, he naturally took the highest position, which was a symbol of status and power.

Yan Chu's face was stern.

The moment he sat on the dragon throne, the aura around him seemed to change, and the strong pressure made even the court officials unable to raise their heads.

At that moment, the court officials who had served in two dynasties recalled the scene when the retired emperor ascended the throne.

This young and majestic emperor may be more courageous and more powerful than the emperor emeritus. Their Yan Dynasty will surely prosper.

"Long live my emperor..."

The court officials who supported him were filled with pride and knelt down at the first opportunity.

The people around also reacted.

There were still some people who stood on King Shuo's side. They looked at his expression first, but saw that King Shuo had already knelt down willingly.

So what else do they insist on?

"Long live our emperor. Long live the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor."

The sounds of civil and military officials paying homage echoed throughout the hall.

From today on, Yan Chu will move into the Shangshu Palace.

Su Rong will have full authority over the Qin Palace.

She is about to move into the palace, and in order to consolidate her power, the servants who enter the palace must be carefully selected.

So he summoned all the servants of the palace to hold a meeting early in the morning.

Even the servants in the outer courtyard of Wangshuyuan were called away.

The yard was very quiet, so only a few people she brought from her mother's home stayed there.

Bitao was busy counting her master's dowry, and she was exhausted along with her five maids.

Just Xiaodie, eating melon seeds when she has nothing to do.

Shen Zhishu was bored and flipping through a book, and frowned because he was annoyed by her.

"get out."

She scolded coldly.

"Master, I have a bold suggestion. Do you want to hear it?"

Xiaodie was smiling.

Now he is not afraid of Shen Zhishu at all.

"explain."

Shen Zhishu's face was filled with annoyance and he didn't want to listen at all.

But he still has his sanity.
