Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 307 I, Emperor Xin, will never betray my beloved.
Daji was extremely grateful for Di Xin's promise. She immediately knelt down before Di Xin and kowtowed.

"Your Majesty's kindness will never be forgotten. Even if I were to perish in the Investiture of the Gods because of humanity, I would never utter a single complaint."

"I only hope that Your Majesty can protect my Xuanyuan Tomb lineage. Even if Daji cannot be listed on the Investiture of the Gods or enter the cycle of reincarnation, I will have no regrets in this life."

Shang Qingjun reached out and helped Daji up, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes as she spoke.

"How could the King bear to let you die? After all, there are only a handful of beauties like you in the entire prehistoric world."

Upon hearing Shang Qingjun's words, Daji blushed slightly, which added a unique charm to her appearance.

Just then, Shang Rong and Bi Gan arrived outside the room. Shang Rong spoke directly.

"Your Majesty, this old minister has a plan that can not only keep Consort Su safe, but also lull the enemy into a false sense of security."

Upon hearing Shang Rong's words, Di Xin hurriedly asked, "Please, Prime Minister, explain in detail."

Shang Rong nodded and then said, "General Yang has found the culprit who assassinated Uncle Bi Gan and the old minister."

"However, we haven't alerted them yet. But we can confirm that the assassin is named Jiang Huan. He was the Queen's bodyguard when she was in Donglu."

"This man was very cautious. Although he believed he had succeeded in the assassination under General Yang's deception, he still did not contact the Queen immediately."

"Therefore, this old minister and Uncle Bigan prepared to use a fake death to lure the queen out, giving Your Majesty a legitimate reason to depose her."

"After Queen Jiang is deposed, Your Majesty can make Daji the queen, so that the Chan Sect will think that the conspiracy has succeeded."

"In this way, the Chan Sect's plan centered on Daji will be implemented without any worries. At that time, Your Majesty will be able to know the Chan Sect's every move through Daji."

Upon hearing Shang Rong's account, Di Xin frowned. "While the old prime minister's plan is meticulous, have you considered Qing Jun?"

"Qingjun is the best candidate for queen in my heart. Do you expect me to keep Qingjun hidden in the shadows, unable to rule the world?"

Hearing that Di Xin cared so much about her, Shang Qingjun felt a warmth in her heart. She immediately reached out and took Di Xin's hand.

"Your Majesty, we cannot let personal feelings interfere with important matters. As long as Qingjun can stay by Your Majesty's side, this life will be enough."

"As for whether it's Qingjun or Daji who becomes queen, what difference does it make as long as they can help the king?"

At this moment, Daji was completely dumbfounded. She never dreamed that the Bi Gan and Shang Rong she saved at the risk of losing all her cultivation were actually faked deaths.

Doesn't that mean her two drops of vital essence blood were just wasted for nothing? The more Daji thought about it, the more heartbroken she felt, heartbroken for her two innocent drops of vital essence blood.

Daji couldn't even hear what Shang Rong said next. So at this moment, Daji had no idea that Shang Rong wanted her to be the queen.

Finally, Shang Qingjun pulled Daji back to her senses, and it took her a while to understand what had happened.

After figuring out what was going on, Daji said directly, "Your Majesty, this matter is actually very simple."

"I will temporarily assume the role of Queen, for the current Queen bears the stigma of being a wicked concubine."

"Once Your Majesty quells the rebellion and leads humanity through the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, Your Majesty will inevitably kill me to appease the public's discontent." "At that time, Your Majesty can then rightfully make Sister Qingjun Queen. Therefore, I am merely a temporary Queen; why should Your Majesty care about a mere few decades?"

Upon hearing Daji's words, Di Xin nodded, but then said to Daji, "As long as you do not betray me, I will not make you a scapegoat."

"As for the idea of ​​killing you to appease public opinion, that's utter nonsense. I have no need to be so hypocritical in front of the world."

Upon hearing Di Xin's words, Daji couldn't help but shed two streams of tears. After all, from birth until now, no one had ever cared about her.

Even after she joined the Chan Sect, no one treated her as a junior sister. They only saw her as a pawn, and a discarded one at that.

Therefore, Daji only had her family in Xuanyuan Tomb in her heart, and never thought that she could get the same warmth as her family in other places.

Now, Daji felt this warmth in Di Xin. She even felt that Di Xin was her lifelong support.

At this moment, Di Xin spoke again, saying, "Qing Jun is born with the destiny of a queen, which is why the Chan Sect is trying every means to make Qing Jun marry into Xiqi."

"Therefore, the Chan Sect will definitely reach out to the old prime minister next. After all, only by killing the old prime minister at my hands can Qingjun leave Chaoge and eventually become the queen of the rebels."

"To prevent the old prime minister from being plotted against by the Chan Sect, I have decided to make Shang Qingjun the queen. As for Daji, she can be made a concubine, second only to the queen."

"After all, a bewitching concubine doesn't necessarily need to be the queen to bewitch the king. However, to isolate Qingjun as queen, we must use the fact that Qingjun has the destiny of a queen as the basis."

"Only in this way will the Chan Sect not have any doubts. Then it will be natural for me to neglect Qingjun and favor Daji."

Upon hearing Di Xin's words, Shang Rong couldn't help but say, "This old minister almost ruined a great matter, for I had completely forgotten about Qing Jun's destiny as queen."

Di Xin waved his hand and said, "Old Prime Minister, there is no need to blame yourself. You only have me in your heart, and the Shang Dynasty only has the human race. That's why you overlooked Qingjun's destiny as queen."

At this moment, Shang Qingjun was also deeply moved. After all, she had long since become Di Xin's person, and her destiny had already been bestowed upon Di Xin.

Therefore, at this time, Di Xin resolutely made himself queen, so as not to suffer any injustice. At the same time, he also wanted to prevent his father from being plotted against by the Chan Sect.

Therefore, at this moment, tears of gratitude streamed down Shang Qingjun's face. Her gaze towards Di Xin was filled with endless tenderness.

If it weren't for the fact that this wasn't the time to be sentimental, Shang Qingjun would probably have thrown herself into Di Xin's arms, leaving herself to his mercy.

Just then, a slender dog descended from the sky. It turned out to be Yang Jian's Celestial Hound, returning after tracking Jiang Huan.

Then, the Celestial Hound came to Yang Jian's side and spoke in human language, saying, "Master, the assassin's residence has been found."

"However, he seems to be packing his bags, probably preparing to flee Chaoge City tonight. That's why I came to ask my master for instructions on what to do."

Yang Jian wasn't surprised to hear that Jiang Huan wanted to escape. After all, killing Bi Gan and Shang Rong would inevitably change the political landscape of Chaoge City.

They will surely dig deep to catch the murderer, so escaping from Chaoge City now is the best option.
