Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role

Chapter 470 Don’t Pick Up 27

Xie Chengyao returned to North Vietnam and quelled the civil strife in the North Vietnamese government along the way.

His methods were not as gentle as when he was in Nanlin Kingdom. Instead, he directly contacted his subordinate troops and forced the current king to abdicate.

Either die or give up your position.

There is no other choice.

The king of North Vietnam was furious and could not believe that his son would be like this.

Wasn't he staying in his fiefdom peacefully? Why would they ask him to abdicate?

But no matter how reluctant he was, the king of North Vietnam was replaced, and as the supreme king, he also planned to enjoy his retirement.

Xie Chengyao was pacifying the chaos in North Vietnam, and Su Lingruo was stabilizing the court in Nanlin.

More than half a year has passed, and both Nanlin and Beiyue have become stable.

"Your Majesty." The minister of Beiyue said, "Nanlin is now ruled by a female emperor. Why don't we make a concerted effort to take Nanlin and unify the country."

Xie Chengyao half-leaned on the throne, his eyebrows slightly closed, his big hand covering the handle of the carved Qilin spitting out beads, and said nonchalantly: "You want to provoke a war between the two countries? You want to be a sinner for all eternity."

It's an affirmative sentence.

"Your Majesty, I dare not." The minister was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed continuously.

There seemed to be an invisible pressure flowing in the hall. The ministers' hearts were in their throats and they had to kowtow, fearing that they would anger the king, whose moods could not be seen.

"Go down."

After a long time, the king on the throne uttered a word without emotion. The ministers breathed a sigh of relief and stumbled away.

Just as someone was about to report something outside the palace, a spy from North Vietnam stationed in Nanlin came in and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, the empress of Nanlin is doing well. She is preparing to recruit concubines and select talented people..."

Qilin's hand broke with a bang, jade splattered everywhere, and scratched the back of the spy's hand. Bright red blood soon flowed out, but the spy did not dare to react.

The laziness and inattentiveness on Xie Chengyao's body disappeared, and his dark eyes were replaced by overwhelming strong emotions.

"This king will personally go south and attack South Vietnam."

South Lin country.

The court of Nanlin has been slowly accepting the empress Su Lingruo, but recently, for some unknown reason, the empress has gone crazy and is planning to march north to attack North Vietnam.

"Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to take back your fame."

The cries of the court officials continued. Over the past year, they had been completely subdued by Su Lingruo and had long been accustomed to her rule. If she really died and a new emperor came, who knows how much more they would be tortured.

There were both male and female officials among the ministers, with women accounting for about two-thirds.

The male ministers were unwilling to let Su Lingruo go to the war because at least she did not take their lives now. She just removed some people from their positions and replaced them with more suitable men and women. She did not confiscate their homes. This was much more merciful than before.

What if the new king of Beiyue turns out to be an erratic tyrant like the previous emperor?

I heard that the king of the enemy country killed his father and brother and used cruel means to ascend the throne.

Thinking of this, Nanlin's ministers couldn't help but shudder.

If such bloodthirsty people who disregard the Three Bonds and Five Constant Virtues become emperors, will they really have a good life?

Su Lingruo was a bit cruel, but she didn't kill her father and brother.

Perhaps it was because of the conciliatory tactics used in the past year that the male officials gradually forgot that the current empress was not a soft-hearted person.

If Xie Chengyao's father were here and heard this rumor, he would definitely cry out for justice. He and his eldest son were both alive and well, so how could they be dead?

The eldest son even gave up his fiefdom and ran around everywhere. I heard that he recently met a woman named Xie, and no one knows what happened to him.

The female ministers were worried that if Su Lingruo died in the crusade against North Vietnam, and the king of North Vietnam ascended to the throne, would there really be a place for women like them? They had finally been able to become officials, and they didn't want to continue staying in the inner house.

But no matter how they tried to persuade her, the empress was determined.

The empress's younger brother and father were not in the capital either. Her younger brother Su Yun had become an imperial merchant a few months ago. He took his wife A Xuan to do business in the Kingdom of Nanlin. It was heard that they had reached the border of Nanlin and planned to take a boat to visit foreign lands.

Su Su continued to stay in Huaizhou, being a leisurely old man. Since his daughter was now the emperor, no one dared to make trouble for him.

He also enjoyed his leisure time.

Therefore, when someone asked him to persuade Su Lingruo to take back her fame, Su Su just frowned, clapped his hands and said, "My daughter is so ambitious, how can I not support her as a father!"

"We will have enough food, fodder, and money. Even if we have to sacrifice all the Su family's assets, we must help Ling Ruo conquer North Vietnam."

The people who came to see Su Su were stunned, "Master, aren't you afraid that His Majesty might have an accident there?"

"I'm afraid, but it's her decision. Do you really think that I, as a father, can stop her?"

Not only could she go to the capital and become the adopted daughter of the emperor's teacher, but she could also become the crown princess and the empress.

Su Su was worried to death with every step.

In fact, when Lin Hua wanted to adopt his daughter, Su Su was against it. His daughter had grown up by his side and had a gentle personality. If she really went to Beijing and offended someone or was bullied, he, as a businessman, would not be able to protect her.

It would be better to stay in Huaizhou, stay in this place, find a suitable man who depends on the Su family to marry into your family's family, and with your son Su Yun protecting you, you won't have a hard life.

But the daughter refused.

She said to him, "Father, Mr. Lin has come to see me and wants me to follow him to the capital without any status or title."

"He dares?" Su Su glared.

"Mr. Lin is now a juren. If he causes a little trouble for our Su family, it will be enough to make us suffer."

"It shouldn't be that serious, right?" Su Su was still a little hesitant.

Su Lingruo continued, "Father, if I beat him, do you really think he would let our Su family go? A mere scholar has such ability, how do you know that I will not encounter ministers who covet my beauty in the future?"

Su Su was silent. His daughter's meaning was very clear. She didn't want the road he had paved for her.

He couldn't protect her, so it would be better for him to let his daughter go to Beijing.

But Su Su was still worried about his daughter, so he asked his son to take all the land deeds and banknotes and go to the capital with his daughter. If something really happened, he could ask his son to give all the family property and find someone to save his daughter's life.

Su Su stayed in Huaizhou until he encountered an assassination attempt.

Densely packed secret guards surrounded the Su family, but the danger he had expected did not come.

In secret, there are also many guards protecting the Su family.

Su Su soon realized that it was his daughter's handiwork, and that his daughter was actually protecting him in secret. He also realized that his daughter had grown up and was no longer the child who always needed his protection.

It is time for the young female eagle to break away from the wings of the big eagle and fly into the wider sky.
