Indeed, I was selfish and wicked at that time.

However, my selfishness is not that I want to be the queen of the world, but that I want to be with my brother.

I don't want my husband and wife to be separated; I don't want to live the life of a cowherd and a weaver girl; I don't want to love each other, and I have nowhere to complain.

However, if he is the emperor of Eastern Xia and I am the empress of Beiyi, then we are bound to live such a life.

To my relief, Brother Xiao seems to have thought of one thing with me. He secretly planned for a long time, had the courage to give up the throne, and was willing to be only a nighthawk guarding the country.

What an easy choice! Throughout the ages, how many emperors have sacrificed their beloved women for the throne. And my brother is willing to sacrifice the throne for the woman he loves. What an amazing open-mindedness this is! And what a loving love!

While I was moved, I could only sigh at my luck.

I acquiesced in such a merger. I acquiesced in their lobbying of the Eastern Xia subjects.

No matter who it is, there is no way to stop my determination to live with my brother day and night.

Actually, secretly I already had a plan. If the subjects of Eastern Xia disagree, then I will give up the throne of the empress and let Brother Xiao be the unification of the world. If the subjects agree, then I will wait until the transition is smooth, and when the three countries are completely integrated, I will give up the throne to Brother Xiao.

In short, no matter how you think about it, the first choice for the throne in my mind is Brother Xiao.

As I said, I'm not attached to the throne. I was pushed into this position step by step, and it wasn't what I wanted. All I want is a husband and children to play happily with the children.

As long as the world is peaceful, as long as the person who sits on this dragon chair is a good emperor, then whoever will be the emperor is the same.

And I am convinced that Brother Xiao will be a good emperor!

It's just that I didn't expect that Brother Xiao and Shen Hanyue's lobbying work would be so smooth and successful. The subjects of Dongxia were really cooperative, and after they heard all the reasons clearly, they easily agreed to let me take over the throne. I'm so flattered/frightened, and I'm honestly scared.

In order to live up to the love of the subjects of Dongxia, I personally supervised the construction of nursing homes and orphanages throughout the Dongxia with the funds for the reconstruction of the imperial palace.

We work hand in hand, go to various places together, and do not allow any first-level officials to have the opportunity to enrich themselves. With our fiery eyes, we personally supervised every tael of silver, every copper plate fell into place, and all fell into the hands of the old orphans.

Together, we also went around the relief efforts. All possible post-war problems were minimized. Let displaced people have a home, so that plague and disease do not have a chance to spread. Let all young people have no worries about the future and devote themselves to labor as soon as possible, so that the country can become rich and strong as soon as possible.

We did this not only in Eastern Xia, but later in Beiyi and Xiqiang. We've been doing this for three whole years. However, as it turned out, our efforts were not in vain. During these three years, the treasury has been constantly filled. Then we use the abundant treasury to return to the people, to help the needy, to help them out of poverty.

It's a good cycle.

Later, we don't have to make any effort to see our Yixia country changing day by day, moving towards a better and more prosperous country. Don't underestimate the wisdom of the people, the wisdom of the people is far beyond our imagination.
