The seventh day after Shen Yao's death.

He was buried in a place in Qingshan.

Gu Yihan and Qiao Yayu were dressed in white and came to see him together.

However, his tomb is already filled with drinks, fruits and dishes.

There is also the ashes of the yellow paper used by other people to worship.

Qiao Yayu watched with tears: "It seems that although the emperor wants him to die, in the hearts of the people, he is still alive."

Gu Yihan's voice was cold. In the past few days, he had become extremely silent, like a lion that might erupt at any moment.

"Shen Yao shouldn't die, someone else deserves to die."

As he spoke, he poured Shen Yao a glass of wine.

Qiao Yayu was silent for a moment, then said: "I used to think that being a female general was a lifelong pursuit."

"That's because being a general can protect the peace of others, but I just realized now that we have no rights, and we can't even protect our relatives and friends around us."

"Although the sword is in our own hands, we are just pawns, and the ones in power are the ones who hold the sword."

Soon, Qiao Yayu cried bitterly on Shen Yao's tombstone.

Gu Yihan stepped forward and hugged her gently from behind.

Qiao Yayu didn't see how dark and cold his eyes were.

Only his voice was heard, extremely firm.

"Trust me, I will make those people pay the price."

Three years later.

Prime Minister Chu was reported to the emperor by the crown prince and the crown prince's wings in the name of the seven deadly crimes.

Corruption and bribery, collaborating with the enemy, disregarding human life...the charges are detailed.

The emperor was furious.

No matter how Prime Minister Chu pleaded for mercy, he was ordered to kill his family.

That night, Qiao Yayu and Gu Yihan went to visit Shen Yao's tomb again.

Around the tomb, the grass and trees are green.

Gu Yihan put the box containing Chu Qian's head in front of the tomb.

"The enemy is here. After he goes to hell, don't let him go." Gu Yihan said.

Qiao Yayu was expelled for being an adulterer, and she felt a lot better.

However, she found that Gu Yihan seemed more depressed and irritable.

He didn't cheer up.

why? Didn't you take revenge?

Soon, she knew why.

Five years later.

The emperor was dying of illness because he believed in the art of immortality.

The prince supervises the country.

After Gu Yihan took power in earnest, his political style was very violent.

Corrupt officials, the amount exceeds a thousand taels, and the house is ransacked! The amount exceeds ten thousand taels, copy and chop!

He was even more cruel to treacherous ministers, as if cramp and skinning were not enough to relieve hatred.

On the night of the emperor's death, Gu Yihan sat by the bed.

"You...such a tyrannical government...want to destroy my country of Qi..." The emperor had no strength to stand up and scold him.

However, he still raised his hand, as if he wanted to slap Gu Yihan.

It's a pity that he was so sick that he just raised his hand before dropping it again.

Gu Yihan grabbed his wrist.

"Does the father want to hit someone? That's right, you really should hit a damned person."

As he spoke, he held the old emperor's hand and slapped the emperor himself hard!

The emperor stared round his eyes, looking at him furiously.

"Ni...Nizi!" He hissed and cursed.

Gu Yihan just laughed.

His cold and pale complexion, especially handsome, was cold and devoid of any emotion.

"When the queen mother died, I actually wanted to do this."

"When I was young, you always blamed me for being too sentimental and easy to soften your heart. You also said that to be an emperor, you must learn to be ruthless."

"On the day Shen Yao died, my father really taught me what is the emperor's mind."

"Seeing you alive all these years has made me really miserable. Fortunately, you believed in the technique of immortality, so you will die soon."

The emperor's eyes widened before he understood.

Those alchemists were all found by Gu Yihan!

Eight years ago, he was laying out this trick!

Gu Yihan threw away his hand, like throwing away a rag.

"Your will has been drawn up, Daqi is in my hands, you can rest assured and close your eyes."

The emperor didn't slow down in one breath, and left with his eyes open.

In the hall where the emperor was mourned, all the ministers kept crying, but Gu Yihan didn't shed a single tear.

All these years of training had already made his heart extremely hard and cold.

After the mourning was over, he left Qiao Yayu alone.

"Now, I am alone." He told her.

Qiao Yayu comforted her and said, "You are sitting on the whole world, and with your governance, Daqi will definitely become stronger."

Gu Yihan just smiled, as if he didn't care.

He looked at Qiao Yayu: "Remember, I told you that I will make those people pay the price. Now, the late emperor has finally gone."

Only then did Qiao Yayu know that Gu Yihan also hated the emperor.

Gu Yihan stretched out his hand: "But after this, how to manage the huge and vast country, to be honest, I don't have a clue yet."

"But if someone is with you, I'm sure I will be full of confidence."

"Yayu," he looked at her firmly, "I invite you to join me in conspiring with the world. In the future when the world is at peace, I will let the world know your name."

"My only hero, Queen Qiao."

Qiao Yayu was startled.

"Queen?"

"Then why not?"

Qiao Yayu hesitated, and slowly put her hand in his palm.

Gu Yihan raised his eyebrows and smiled lightly: "What are you hesitating about?"

Qiao Yayu said frankly, "I weighed it up, whether I should stay for you or not."

"Being a queen, doesn't it mean that I have to face you day and night. I remember that you have a bad temper. Will your temper become better after you become a husband and wife?"

Gu Yihan pulled her arm and forced her to get closer.

"Then I promise, I will never lose my temper with you in the future."

Qiao Yayu curled her lips, obviously not believing it.

Gu Yihan smiled again and said, "Really, I will use time to prove it."

"By the way, what do you think we will have a daughter in the future?"

Qiao Yayu hopped: "Before you're married, you're thinking of having a baby!"

Gu Yihan laughed loudly: "Not only that, but I also thought of a name. If it's a daughter, I'll call her Nuo'er."

"Nuoer? Why is it called this?"

"Her birth symbolizes my promise to you, that I will love you for the rest of my life and will not make you sad."

"Well...well, if it's a daughter, let's call her Nuo'er!"

The moon outside the window was full. It turned out that it was Mid-Autumn Festival again.
