ot. Sadly, a piece of skin was still torn off, blood gushing out, which made the zombies smelling the blood even more excited."Taoge, come in quickly!"Yun Rou urgently urged Ma Tao, she also saw that...The entire hall was deathly silent, with no one standing up to respond.

As the emperor's daughter, the second princess couldn't be treated lightly or disrespectfully. The officials below, exchanging furtive glances, were unsure how to respond to her, uncertain of the empress's intentions.

"How come everyone's dumb as a post"

Lian Yi rubbed her temples and said in a soft voice.

"The second princess colluded with the Panlong nation and even privately dispatched Zhao's army from the border to attack the palace. If it weren't for the empress's keen insight, we wouldn't know what the situation would be like now. According to the Fengqi Law, treason is a serious crime, and she deserves to be punished!"

The Minister of Justice stepped forward and spoke.

Liàn Yī took a look at the young new Minister who had just been appointed. She did not show any reaction to his proposed method of dealing with the situation.

The court fell silent once more. With the Minister of Punishment's words as a probe, everyone understood that the Empress did not want her daughter to die.

The ripples glanced at the ministers and sighed, saying:

"Everyone says that if you don't teach your children, it is the fault of the father! As for my daughter reaching this point today, I bear some responsibility. However, the mistakes she has made are truly unforgivable."

But she is my daughter after all, so I spared her death penalty. However, she cannot escape the consequences of her actions. She must understand that the final result was a consequence of her wrong decisions.

"Ripple paused here for a moment, then continued,"

"From today onwards, the second princess will be demoted to commoner status. She must watch executions every day until all those involved in this rebellion have been executed. After that, she will go to the western suburbs to guard the imperial tomb."

"The Queen is wise!"

All the ministers immediately responded in unison.

The disposal of the Second Princess was thus decided. Afterward, the palace gates reopened, and news spread throughout the capital at lightning speed.

Only then did the common people realize that it was the second princess who had united with her father's army to attempt a palace coup, but ultimately failed.

Not only was the second imperial princess demoted to commoner status, but she also dragged down the entire Zhao family army, resulting in the execution of all three generations of the Zhao clan.

The blood on the execution ground had never dried, and the stench of it made people on the whole street afraid to go out after dark.

>A month later, the executions ended and the stench of blood finally dissipated.

After a month of watching heads roll, the second princess had become somewhat dazed. She couldn't forget the hatred in the Zhao family's eyes when they looked at her, nor could she forget the crimson splash when the heads fell.

These paintings tormented her, keeping her up at night and making it impossible for her to eat. She had become so thin that only bones were left.

After seeing the ripples before her, she reacted for a long time before finally realizing what had happened and said:

"Your Majesty, I was wrong!"

Those people died because of you. You only look up, but never back. You had no plan, and just wanted to take my place. That is the most foolish thing ever.

When you and your dear father teamed up to poison me, you should have thought there would be a day of exposure.

Ripples said without mercy.

The second princess lowered her head, offering no response, and her body trembled slightly.

"Yellow warbler, send her to the imperial tomb!"

R ripples directly waved her hand.

"Mother, am I not your daughter"

I don't believe Big Sister did nothing!

Why can you forgive her but not me

The last sentence was practically a roar, obviously the second princess didn't want to be a fool.

The only thing she's better than you at is that she hasn't made enemies or betrayed the Fengqi Nation.

And you, for the sake of the throne, colluded with the remnants of the Panlong Kingdom and even shook the border troops. Do you know the consequences of such actions

Have you ever considered the people who live on the border

Today, for the sake of the throne, you're willing to do this. Who knows what you wouldn't sell in the future, even the entire nation of Fengqi!

What qualifications do you have to be emperor”

Ripple finished speaking and turned to leave. She had come to see the other person for the last time, which could be considered fulfilling her filial piety. In their lifetimes, they probably wouldn't meet again.

The second princess went to guard the Imperial Tomb, and everyone felt that the eldest princess's chance had come. This could be considered a win by lying down.

But the eldest princess grew even more low-key. She knew very well that in her mother's heart, she had long been out of favor. Now she placed all her hopes on her daughter, Nannan.

The Panlong Kingdom completely disappeared in the long river of history, and its territory was divided by the other three kingdoms.

When the Phoenix Nation experienced a palace coup, both Xuanwu Nation and Baihu Nation were watching. If the Empress of the Phoenix Nation had changed, they might be able to expand their territories further.

Unfortunately, she disappointed them. The Phoenix Empress quelled the palace coup with lightning speed, restoring order within just one month.

In their disappointment, they also raised their guard.

When the ripples resolved the biggest threat to Panlong Country, Shiju popped up to remind them that the mission progress was halfway complete. The remaining half was all about the succession issue.

Fortunately, when ripples arrived here, she began practicing the piccolo. Nanny was also very competitive; at nine years old, she started attending political meetings, at fourteen, she began helping to read imperial edicts, and by sixteen, she was openly sitting beside ripples in court.

It wasn't until this point that the courtiers understood, the Empress had her heart set on Princess Wu Nini (Nini's given name) as her heir apparent.

Why would she raise a younger granddaughter when there's already an adult princess The ministers couldn't understand it, and Ripple wouldn't explain to them.

When Nanny turned twenty and was able to stand on her own, Ripple directly passed the throne to her, and sealed the eldest princess and third princess as princesses, forbidding them from governing. The eagle talisman was also given to Nanny.

Then, with ripples carrying the wise attendant to Zhuxiu Garden, she left. Even though Nannan pleaded repeatedly for Ripples to stay in the palace, Ripples refused.

"You are now the queen. Your grandmother has taught you all she can. The rest is up to you."

My grandmother is getting old and wants to have a few peaceful days.

"My grandmother is ageless, still so young and beautiful!"

Nannan pulled at Lianyi's sleeve and coquettishly said,

"You're a young woman now, don't always rely on your grandmother. You need to stand up for yourself."

Ripples puffed up her cheeks and walked away directly.

Nuan Nuan helplessly, could only begin the days of handling government affairs alone.

"Ripple, the task progress is 100% complete, congratulations on successfully completing the mission again."

The stone mill sprinkled flower petals with a hint.

"Mission accomplished, can I stay for a while longer"

Ripples asked directly.

The stone mill was a little surprised. This was the first time Ripple Ancestor hadn't rushed back after completing a mission.

Of course, the time your physical body will cease to exist is also the longest time a Tasker can remain in this world.

"Alright, I'll go back after my death."

"...If you're happy, that's all that matters."

The ripples' soul was already powerful, and having allowed the original body to successfully draw in Qi, she had enough time to complete the rest of her tasks.

The Great Princess's schemes ultimately failed, as her health deteriorated. She suffered a sudden heart ailment and passed away before Ripples.

Then, the loyal attendant who had always been by Lianyi's side also fell ill. He grasped Lianyi's hand and said:

"Ripple, I want to be buried with you after I die."

Ripples lightly patted his hand, then turned to the white-haired Lan Xin beside him and said:

"Convey my decree, elevate Xian Shijun to the position of Imperial Consort, and upon his death, have him buried with me."

"Yes!"

Before the loyal servant closed his eyes, the imperial edict was personally delivered to him by Lianyi. The latter showed a smile and departed peacefully.

Ripples called Nannan to the front and handed over the royal guards, saying with a smile:

"Grandmother is leaving, you take care of yourself."

"Grandmother!"g washed the dishes, and Lian Yi gathered everyone together. She took out her plan and let her family read it, sharing her plans with them.Mu Fu and Mu Mu both wore their reading glasses, carefully lo...
