When Xie Chunchao returned to the Zichen Hall, the hall was brightly lit. She pushed the door open and walked through the screen to see Rong Shen leaning on the small platform and reading a book. In front of him was the food that had already gone cold.

He made a gesture, and the palace people immediately took away the cold meals and reheated them.

The emperor and empress of this dynasty were both quite frugal. Not only had they decreed that each meal should have no more than six dishes, but the meals that had gone cold on weekdays were also reheated by the cooks.

Rong Shen: "Why did you come back so late today? What did you talk about with the new champion?"

Xie Chunchao said casually, "I just want to talk about my views on the recent incident that has caused everyone distress."

After she finished speaking, she sat down next to Rong Shen and asked, "Where is Zexia? Are you already asleep?"

Rong Shen nodded, "Already asleep."

Xie Chunchao rubbed his eyebrows and said, "I haven't been able to properly accompany Zexia when she wakes up for several days."

Rong Shen raised his hand to massage Xie Chunchao's shoulders in a familiar manner and said, "The child is still young and has little sleep time. When she grows up, you will have plenty of time."

Xie Chunchao shook his head and said, "When she grows up, she will have her own ideas and her own path. How can she still think of me?"

Rong Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why are you so sad all of a sudden?"

"If you ask me, no matter how old Zexia is, she will always be my daughter."

Xie Chunchao suddenly laughed, then leaned gently on Rong Shen and closed his eyes to fall asleep.

Rong Shen looked at her distressedly and sighed softly, "Why make yourself so tired?"

"You can tell me whatever you want to do and I will help you."

Xie Chunchao was silent for a long time, then slowly opened his eyes and asked, "What if... I want your position?"

The hall fell silent for a moment, except for the flickering sound of candlelight, which was each other's heartbeats and subtle breathing. She looked at Rong Shen's expression unwaveringly.

Rong Shen was silent for a few seconds, then laughed softly and said,
"Chaochao, whatever you want, I will give it to you."

"Even if it's my position."

Xie Chunchao smiled slightly, said nothing, and just leaned on his shoulder quietly.

After a long time, Rong Shen asked again, "Are you going to stop asking me?"

Xie Chunchao said, "What do you ask?"

"Ask me if what I said is true?"

Xie Chunchao said softly, "I didn't ask whether it was true or not."

Besides, even if it was fake, she could get it herself.

After Xie Chunchao made his decision, he immediately started taking action.

She first wrote a letter to the Chu State, asking her brother to send troops to suppress the Xia State border so that the border troops could not turn around to save Jianyang.

Since chatting with Qin Yin that day, her inner ambition has continued to expand.

She not only wants the Xia Kingdom, but also wants the whole world.

But it is obviously not the right time yet. If you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer the Xia Kingdom.

Rong Shen is not stupid, on the contrary, he is very smart.

He has seen all the subtle changes and disturbances in the palace in recent days.

Although the whole of Jianyang seemed to be passing peacefully day after day, with his years of acumen, he could still detect that a major event that would change the day was about to happen in Jianyang City.

His former loyal ministers knelt before him more than once and begged him to suppress the Queen's power a little.

He said no.

He understood Xie Chunchao's ambition and what she wanted to do.

He didn't want to stop it, he just wanted to wait quietly for the final outcome.

If she really wanted it, she could just take it.

Anyway, he had not wanted the position of Emperor of Xia since he met her in Chu.

On this day, the commander of the Imperial Palace Imperial Guard was quietly knocked unconscious from behind and tied up. Of course, it was not only him who was knocked unconscious, but also many people.

And without exception, they are all the emperor's cronies.

Xie Chunchao stood on the wall in front of the Zichen Palace and looked up at the dark night in the distance. She remembered that she had bid farewell to Princess Liyang on the city wall, and had also shot an enemy soldier with an arrow on the city wall. For the first time, she felt the helplessness of being a woman. Even though she was a princess, she could still be easily gifted to others by the words of a superior.

For the second time, she saw the ruthlessness of war and the preciousness of human life.

And this time, she is about to become the new master of Xia Kingdom.

She looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky, closed her eyes and made a wish silently.

I hope that the Moon Palace Empress will bless her and allow her to accomplish two things.

First, it gives women all over the world one more choice.

Secondly, I hope there will be no more wars in the world.

She was about to open her eyes when a violent explosion suddenly sounded in her ears. When she opened her eyes, she saw fireworks blooming in the night sky.

The beauty is brilliant and dazzling.

Qin Yin stood behind her, silently looking at her profile.

Xie Chunchao looked at the fireworks blooming in the sky, and suddenly an idea came to his mind.

Fireworks are fragile and beautiful, yet so powerful.

It can suddenly rise from the ground to high altitude, and then explode in the air.

in case……

What if it blows up on someone?
Xie Chunchao suddenly became excited. She thought that she might really be able to give women one more choice.

If there is such an artifact, what does the difference in body size mean?

Even thousands of troops can defeat it.

She looked back at Qin Yin, her hand pointing at the fireworks was trembling, "Qin Yin, can you make it into a weapon?"

Qin Yin can win the first prize, so he will not be stupid.

He immediately understood Xie Chunchao's thoughts. He lowered his eyes and said, "I will try my best."

Xie Chunchao ordered, "We must act in secret and don't reveal anything!"

As Xie Chunchao spoke, he grabbed his arm tightly and gritted his teeth, "If it can really be made into a weapon, it will definitely be extremely powerful."

"If it is leaked..."

Qin Yin knew the seriousness of this matter. Whoever could master this weapon would have an absolute advantage.

This weapon can only be firmly in their hands.

"I understand!"

When Xie Chunchao heard this, Fang slowly let go of his hand, and at this time Qiu Qingying also came.

"Mother, everything is done."

When Xie Chunchao heard this, she turned around and looked at Zichen Palace through the fireworks in the sky. She said, "Wait outside."

Qiu Qingying looked worried, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor is an extremely expert, why don't you wait and accompany your Majesty in?"

Xie Chunchao shook his head and said, "I'll just go in by myself, and you guys wait outside."

Xie Chunchao knew that he was doing risky things again to worry his subordinates.

But... that person was Rong Shen. She wanted to take a risk, and he was worth taking.

The hall was still brightly lit. When she walked into the hall, she saw Rong Shen sitting on the couch coaxing their child. Seeing her coming, he smiled and asked her to sit down.

She sat down as she was told and focused on their child. Zexia was now over a year old.

She is so cute and beautiful.

A softness flashed in her eyes, and then she raised her hand to pinch her face.

She was smiling, but the most cruel and cold-blooded thing came out of her mouth, "Rong Shen, write me an abdication edict."

Rong Shen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "You really haven't changed, you are as direct as ever."

Just like when they first met, she pointed at him and said she wanted to marry him. (End of chapter)
