On our wedding day, I castrated my fiancée's white moonlight.

Upon hearing this!

The entire room fell silent!

The people who had just been calling for Li Chengqian to ascend the throne all gaped open, staring at Ye Fan in utter horror!

The other civil and military officials also dared not speak, kneeling on the ground with their heads bowed!

Li Chengqian's eyes narrowed as he stared intently at Ye Fan, his eyes practically spitting blood: "Ye Fan, are you... also going to rebel?"

"The Prince of Dongjiang has rebelled! Your return to the capital to quell the rebellion is a great achievement!"

"But, Father Emperor has passed away! How are you any different from that Prince Dongjiang if you prevent me from ascending the throne? The people of Great Xia are all watching; don't tarnish the illustrious reputation of Prince Zhenbei, Ye Zhengrong!"

That concludes my remarks!

The entire room fell silent!

Li Chengqian stands on the moral high ground!

Nalan Fengyun, his voice hoarse, stared at Ye Fan and said, "Ye Fan, don't do anything reckless! Even Zheng Rong in heaven wouldn't approve of such perverse actions!"

Ye Fan said calmly, "The Li family bloodline can continue to be emperor."

"But Li Chengqian, no!"

Upon hearing this!

Li Chengqian laughed: "Ye Fan, all of Father Emperor's other princes have been killed by Lin Baichuan!"

"Sixth Brother Li Youran escaped from the palace amidst the chaos and has long since disappeared!"

"Now, besides me, the only male descendant of the Li royal family is Li Youran! You can't possibly let a cripple who only cares about escaping when the country is in peril become emperor, can you?"

Li Chengqian was very confident.

In any case, the throne must fall to him!

"Who said only men can be emperors?" Ye Fan looked at everyone with amusement.

……

The Cold Palace is located to the west of the inner palace.

The shouts of battle outside had ceased, and all was quiet. Occasionally, neatly arranged soldiers would patrol past the Cold Palace.

"Is it over already? Looks like the throne has changed hands..."

A gaunt, wrinkled figure with sunken eyes leaned against the main entrance of the Cold Palace!

It was Li Youruo!

The setting sun's rays shone down on her with a blinding intensity!

Who would have thought that less than half a month ago, she was the peerless and powerful Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty?

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 10 ...

Half a month later, he could only wait to die, sickly and weak, in this cold palace!

At this moment, Li Youruo was filled with endless regret: "Ye Fan, how cruel you are... Waaah... Do you really not love me anymore?"

"Why didn't I wake up sooner? Why did I have to be so willful and capricious?"

"Waaaaah..."

Li Youruo hugged her legs and buried her head in her knees!

With a creak, the door to the Cold Palace was pushed open.

Li Youruo raised her head blankly, her straw-like hair covering half her face, but unable to conceal the shock in her eyes. Her voice was hoarse as she called out a name: "Ye Fan..."

"...Heh, am I going to die? To think I'd see you at a time like this..."

"Come on, I'm not afraid, I have nothing left to lose..."

Li Youruo smiled, closed her eyes slightly, and awaited her death!

It's all an illusion!

After waiting for a while, there was no response; the musty and rotten smell of the cold palace still filled my nostrils!

A series of crisp footsteps sounded, so realistic!

This is not an illusion!

Li Youruo opened her eyes again, looking at the person before her in astonishment, and exclaimed in shock, "You didn't die in the Northern Border? How is that possible! They said you only led a few hundred men and faced the Quanrong King's army of 300,000 alone..."

"Didn't you want to see me? You even asked the eunuch to pass on a message to me. Why are you disappointed that I didn't die?" Ye Fan said.

Li Youruo gave a wry smile: "Heh... Ye Fan, you win!"

"You're here to laugh at me, aren't you? Hahaha... The once glorious princess is now worse off than a stray dog. Are you satisfied now?"

"You can kill me! I'll accept being slowly sliced ​​to death, tortured to a thousand cuts, I'll accept it all!"

"This is all my own fault!"

After saying that, Li Youruo closed her eyes and awaited her death!

A moment later, a calm voice came: "What if I didn't kill you, and instead made you emperor?"

"What did you say?"

Li Youruo suddenly opened her eyes, filled with disbelief!

Why won't Ye Fan kill her?

They want her to be the empress? A woman as empress?

"impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible! Just tell me if you're willing!"

Upon hearing this, Li Youruo's heart skipped a beat!

He sensed boundless confidence from this man!

The overwhelming allure caused Li Youruo to tremble involuntarily, her breathing becoming rapid: "I...I'm willing, but...what else do you need me to do?"

Ye Fan said, "You've suffered endless scorn and torment in this cold palace!"

"The kinship of the royal family is the cruelest knife to you! If you become emperor, I believe there is not a single member of the Li family who is not afraid of you, and you can repay them a thousandfold with the cruelest means!"

"And you have no one else to rely on but me!"

"Li Youruo! I want you to be the sharpest knife in my hand!"

Li Youruo's heart skipped a beat!

What a cruel revenge!

But Li Youruo agreed almost without thinking; this was her last straw!

With a nod, she could ascend to the supreme position that no woman could ever reach in her entire life!

Refuse, and you will be condemned to eternal damnation!

"I promise you!"

The words had barely left his mouth!

Under Li Youruo's shocked gaze, Ye Fan took out several silver needles and inserted them into Li Youruo's body. Within a few breaths, Li Youruo's haggard face, sunken cheeks, and dry yellow hair recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In the blink of an eye, she transformed from a lifeless, zombie-like figure back into a stunningly beautiful princess!

I have a needle that can bring the dead back to life and heal flesh and bone!

"Get ready! You'll be enthroned first thing tomorrow morning."

Ye Fan turned and left.

After a long while, Li Youruo finally dragged her staggering body out of the Cold Palace gates for the first time. Countless civil and military officials knelt on the ground, shouting loudly, "Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
