617 The Might of the Gu Queen, Destiny (2)

Nangong Yan’s expression froze.

Nangong Li said, “When you inherit the throne in the future, it’s just a matter of your word to make peace with the Great Zhou. Would the Emperor of the Great Zhou become enemies with the entire Nanzhao for a younger brother who has died many years ago? At that time, Father can come back openly.”

“The Prince Consort will come back?” Nangong Yan asked in a daze.

Nangong Li nodded. “Yes, we can still bring him back. When we have the power in our hands, can’t we get whatever we want?”

That’s right. As long as she regained her lost power, why couldn’t she get a man? Nangong Yan clenched her fists bit by bit. “I want to be the Queen… I want the Prince Consort to come back to my side… I want… I want to kill Yan Jiuchao.”

Nangong Li was gratified. “We have to deal with this bad guy to prevent future trouble. Mother, you can leave him to me. I’ll deal with him. What you have to do now is obediently cooperate with Gu Elder Meng and let the Gu Queen acknowledge you as its master.”

“If I had listened to you back then, I wouldn’t have fallen into this state.” She shouldn’t have gotten close to Yan Jiuchao and treated that family without reservation.

Nangong Li blamed himself. “It’s my fault. I implicated Mother.”

In this matter, Nangong Yan had once blamed her son for acting on his own accord and poisoning the children. In the end, they ended up harming themselves. However, the moment her son knelt down and took all the blame, she no longer had any resentment.

No matter what, this was the child she had given birth to after ten months of pregnancy.

Nangong Yan nodded and held her son’s hand. She said guiltily, “Don’t mention the past anymore. I won’t let you worry anymore.”

Nangong Li said warmly, “It’s fine if I’m worried. As long as you’re willing to pull yourself together, I’m willing to do anything.”

Nangong Yan’s fighting spirit was reignited. The next day, she went to Gu Elder Meng’s courtyard.

It was not easy to make the Gu Queen recognize it as its master. After it recognized its master, the Gu worm would not release poison to hurt its master. However, before it recognized its master, it had a very strong struggle.

Even though she had taken the antidote in advance, Nangong Yan still suffered a lot. Fortunately, the Gu Queen finally acknowledged her master.

Nangong Yan rested at home for a few days. When she looked better, she got someone to prepare a carriage and set off for the throne room.

The Emperor had deposed her as the Queen, but she was still the Princess of Nanzhao. She had the qualifications to enter the palace.

The Emperor had been annoyed to death in recent days. The rumors about the Eldest Princess and the Helian family were everywhere. Even the eunuchs sweeping the floor knew. The ministers pressured him, the Emperor, to force the Helian family to give an explanation.

The Emperor had no choice but to call Helian Beiming over. However, before he could ask if the Helian family had really killed an innocent child, he heard the servant report—the Princess requested an audience.

There was only one Princess in Nanzhao, and that was Nangong Yan.

Nangong Yan was no longer the Queen. The politics had nothing to do with her. Why did she come to the throne room?

The Emperor frowned. “In.”

“The Princess has an audience—”

Nangong Yan, who had changed into the Princess’s palace dress, walked elegantly into the throne room. After not seeing her for many days, she looked a little haggard, but the dignity between her eyebrows did not decrease. She calmly walked to the front and bowed to the Emperor on the throne. “Greetings, Father.”

The Emperor did not let her stand up. Instead, he asked indifferently, “What are you doing here?”

Nangong Yan knelt and straightened her back. She looked at the Emperor and said, “I’m here today to report to you that I’ve found the holy artifact.”

“What… what did you say?” The Emperor was so shocked that he leaned forward and almost stood up.

Nangong Yan took in the Emperor’s reaction and thought to herself that this move was indeed not wrong. Her father cared so much about the holy artifact, so why would she not be able to regain his favor with the “holy artifact”?

Nangong Yan smiled and said, “I’ve found the holy artifact. Congratulations, Father. Nanzhao… has the protection of the Gu G.o.d again.”

After the holy artifact was stolen, there was frequent trouble in Nanzhao. The Emperor had privately wondered if the Gu G.o.d was punis.h.i.+ng them. The ministers’ reactions were not much calmer than the Emperor’s. All of them widened their eyes and looked at Nangong Yan in shock.

The Emperor called the State Preceptor over. “Bring the Gu bead!”

Actually, there were also Gu beads in the throne room, but they were embedded in the roof beam that was a hundred feet tall. At such a far distance, even true holy artifacts could not light up.

“Yes.” The State Preceptor was already prepared. He got someone to carry a hundred Gu beads over. The moment Nangong Yan placed her palm on the Gu beads, they lit up in unison, as bright as day.

Nangong Yan was secretly surprised. One had to know that she had once brought a true holy artifact to the throne room. At that time, it was also these hundred Gu beads that were almost as bright.

If she hadn’t confirmed that this was a Gu Queen, she would have thought that she had brought back a real holy artifact.

The Gu Queen was so powerful that she did not have to worry about being exposed from now on!

“Your Majesty! The Princess has contributed to the recovery of the holy artifact. I earnestly request Your Majesty to appoint her as the Queen again!”

“Your Majesty, please appoint her as the Queen!”

“I implore Your Majesty!”

The ministers knelt on the ground and piously pet.i.tioned for the Princess. Among them, there were naturally trusted aides who had been arranged beforehand, but most of them were ministers who had really been convinced by the holy artifact.

After such a problem, the holy artifact could still return to her side. Who could say that it was not fate?

Helian Beiming, who had been silent all this while, said, “The Princess has committed an unforgivable sin. Can she be pardoned just because she found a worm? Then anyone can collude with the enemy and commit treason in the future, anyone can deceive the Emperor!”

Lord Du said angrily, “What are you saying? That’s a holy artifact!”

He was Nangong Yan’s trusted aide and was also the minister who had led the way to plead for the reinstatement of Queen.

Helian Beiming mocked, “You’re the ones who called it the holy artifact. It’s just a Gu worm. Aren’t you being too casual by reinstating the Queen just because of this?”

Lord Du said coldly, “Do you know how difficult it is to make the holy artifact recognize her as its master? There are so many powerful Gu Masters in the Ghost Clan, but they can’t subdue the holy artifact. The Princess is neither a Gu Master nor a Gu Lady. The holy artifact still recognizes her as its master. From this, it can be seen that she’s the candidate chosen by the Gu G.o.d. She has obtained the Gu G.o.d’s blessing. This is the help of the heavens, and also the Heavenly Dao!”

Helian Beiming’s gaze landed on the ministers who were pet.i.tioning for Nangong Yan. “Lord Du is exaggerating the use of the holy artifact. Could it be that you think so too? Whoever has the holy artifact is the true ruler of Nanzhao?”

Everyone was speechless.

They did not say that. However, the Princess was the flesh and blood of the Emperor. She was lucky and happened to obtain the holy artifact. Together, she was undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.

Helian Beiming was a general. In terms of eloquence, he was inferior to the civil officials. Soon, Lord Du mentioned the old State Preceptor’s prophecy and the weather when Nangong Yan was born, praising Nangong Yan to be divine. He was just short of saying that Nangong Yan was the reincarnation of a G.o.ddess.

Recently, many things had happened in the Capital, causing the hearts of the people to be in turmoil and the people’s livelihood to be unstable. At this critical juncture, they indeed needed a big matter to inspire the hearts of the people.

No matter how much the Emperor did not want to forgive the Little Princess, he could not stop the public opinion.

The Emperor pressed his aching glabella and said, “The Princess will also go to pray for the commoners in three days.”

This meant that she was going to be reinstated.

Back then, the Little Princess had been personally conferred the t.i.tle of Queen by the Emperor after the ritual.

Now, the Emperor had allowed her to attend the ritual again, which meant that he was prepared to let her regain her throne.

Nangong Yan was overjoyed. After losing power for many days, she was finally going to be the Queen again! This time, she wanted the people of the world to understand that she, Nangong Yan, was the true destined one, the irreplaceable Queen of Nanzhao!
