Chapter 250: Heartbreak
At this point, the civil war of Junguo is over, and Zhou Linlin successfully ascended the throne of Junguo and became the first queen in the history of Junguo, which is a breakthrough in history even in the entire Terran Kingdom. Zhou Linlin was sitting on the throne of the palace of the royal capital at this time, while Jin Shanshan and Jin Meimei, who were overlords, were sitting on both sides.
After Zhou Linlin ascended the throne, she naturally wanted to be rewarded for her meritorious deeds, and after a reward, the Qu family became the most powerful family in Junguo, and the Xi family ranked second in terms of merit, but only Xi Mo was left.
Zhou Linlin invited Qu Lingsha to move to the royal capital, and Zhou Linlin invited Lingsha to enter the royal capital, but Qu Lingsha was unwilling to leave Luohai City, so she left Mu Xiaofeng to become the spokesperson of the Qu family to develop in the royal capital.
Mu Xiaofeng, as the heir of Luohai City, naturally agreed, and he didn't expect that he would become the most powerful person in Junguo by mistake, and he was only 17 years old.
After rewarding Mu Xiaofeng and Qu Lingsha, Zhou Linlin nodded slightly towards Jin Shanshan beside him, and said with a smile: "This time, thanks to the help of the prince of the tyrant, otherwise the king would not have been able to win it so smoothly." Although Zhou Linlin now knows that even if there is no golden shining army, Zhou Hesheng will not kill himself, but this secret must not be revealed.
Jin Shanshan nodded slightly and didn't say anything in return, but Jin Meimei on the other side grabbed the words, "I also hope that Her Majesty the Queen of Junguo can fulfill the promise made between me and my brother before." After that, Jin Meimei's eyes swept to Mu Xiaofeng, suggesting that it was time for Zhou Linlin to dissolve the marriage contract between the two of them.
Zhou Linlin naturally understood Jin Meimei's intentions, she looked at Mu Xiaofeng and frowned slightly, her eyes revealing a trace of reluctance. Zhou Linlin had never been moved by Mu Xiaofeng before, but the training together in the past few years, coupled with the sacrifice of his life in the duel with Zhou Hesheng a few days ago, made Zhou Linlin have a good impression in his heart.
Although Jin Shanshan is more heroic and handsome, and she is the identity of the prince of the overlord, she still hesitated to ask Zhou Linlin to cancel her marriage contract with Mu Xiaofeng.
And Mu Xiaofeng nodded slightly at this time and smiled. Although he has seen through Zhou Linlin's thoughts, he has always been concerned about Qiao Zi, and Jin Shanshan is indeed more suitable for Zhou Linlin.
Seeing that Mu Xiaofeng didn't refute, Zhou Linlin sighed, stood up and announced to everyone: "This queen is no longer the princess she used to be, and her status is not suitable for Mu Xiaofeng, so forget about the previous marriage contract." Then Zhou Linlin spread out her palm, pointed her palm upwards at Jin Shanshan, and continued, "Prince Jin Shanshan has made an agreement with me, and when I ascend the throne, it will be when the prince marries me. He also asked His Royal Highness the Prince to go back and prepare a dowry and formally propose. A year later we got married. β
As soon as Zhou Linlin's words came out, everyone in the hall began to talk about each other. After the civil war, Junguo was worried that the hegemon would take advantage of the situation, but now that he has a marriage contract with Prince Jin Shanshan, Junguo can also rest and recuperate the people and take a good breath.
And as soon as this news came out, Mu Xiaofeng's face was not a little gloomy, but smiled slightly, and everyone was relieved, for fear that this important minister who had just been rewarded would make something unpleasant.
This Jin Shanshan saw that Zhou Linlin fulfilled his promise, so he happily said goodbye and left in advance, he wanted to rush back to the overlord, leaving only Fourth Sister Luo and Jin Meimei in the royal capital.
After settling the matter of the marriage contract, Zhou Linlin called Ximo to step forward. Although Xi Mo was rewarded and could move from Huguan City to the royal capital, he had promised Xi Mo that he could make a request and meet anything.
Xi Mo stepped forward at this time and half-knelt in front of Zhou Linlin.
"Xi Mo, do you remember when I promised you that you could make a request? Have you thought about it now? Zhou Linlin slowly sat down in his position, and then supported his head with his right hand.
"The minister has already thought about it, but will Her Majesty be serious and can any request be fulfilled?" Xi Mo buried his head at this time, and it seemed to be a very difficult request.
Zhou Linlin didn't think about it so much, but smiled, patted the armrest of the throne with his hand, and replied: "As long as it is not the throne of this monarchy, the rest can be given to you, and the words count." β
Xi Mo raised his head at this time, turned his head to look at Qiao Zi behind him, and pleaded: "The minister and Qiao Zi have long had a marriage contract, but Qiao Tong, the patriarch of the Qiao family, betrayed Your Majesty, and asked Your Majesty not to blame the past to let the minister and Qiao Zi get married." β
Xi Mo's words were very level, although he was ostensibly asking Zhou Linlin to bypass Qiao Zi, he actually wanted Zhou Linlin to give the two of them a marriage.
However, Xi Mo's request made Zhou Linlin stunned, she knew how important Qiao Zi was to Mu Xiaofeng, if she hastily agreed, then Mu Xiaofeng would have to hate herself for the rest of her life.
Jin Meimei saw that Zhou Linlin didn't answer, so she spoke angrily, "Of course Her Majesty the Queen of Junguo will agree to your small request, who made the Xi family pay so much for Junguo, this is as it should be." β
Jin Meimei's words made Zhou Linlin unable to get off the stage in an instant, Zhou Linlin coughed and pretended to be calm, and replied: "Although the Xi family has indeed paid a lot for Junguo, Qiao Zi is also a meritorious person, so I still have to ask for her opinion." β
After that, Zhou Linlin called Qiao Zi and asked her if she was willing to fulfill the previous marriage contract between the Qiao family and the Xi family.
Qiao Zi is used to being obedient, how dare she refuse, she just nodded slightly to indicate that she obeyed Zhou Linlin's decision in everything.
Hearing Qiao Zi say this, Mu Xiaofeng's gaze dimmed, and the whole person became gloomy, and the uneasiness and sadness that shrouded his whole body woke up the void yuan in his body.
"Little ghost, you are so angry! I knew for a long time that there would be no outcome for the two of you, and that there were so many things in the world that got your wish. Xuyuan's voice appeared in Mu Xiaofeng's mind, stimulating every nerve in Mu Xiaofeng's body.
Mu Xiaofeng patted his face to calm himself down. But then Zhou Linlin's words hit Mu Xiaofeng like a thunderbolt from the blue.
"Then the queen will fulfill the two of you, and the marriage will be completed in half a year." Zhou Linlin's eyes swept to Mu Xiaofeng, and found that Mu Xiaofeng's face was full of unhappiness at this time, and Zhou Linlin herself was a little angry. When Mu Xiaofeng announced the dissolution of the marriage contract just now, he was very calm, and knowing that Qiao Zi was going to marry Xi Mo, Mu Xiaofeng reacted so much.
And Zhou Linlin's decision made Qiao Zi also taken aback, but after all, Zhou Linlin was the king of Junguo, and he had no choice but to thank Zhou Linlin and accept her will.
After Zhou Linlin rewarded the rest of the people, the court meeting was also dispersed. After the court meeting, Mu Xiaofeng immediately ran to the garden of the palace to find Zhou Linlin, who was sitting on the stone bench in the garden and looking at the paperwork.
Zhou Linlin saw Mu Xiaofeng coming, and said without raising his head: "Mu Xiaofeng! Now that I am the queen of Junguo, you should salute me first when you see me. β
Mu Xiaofeng was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly, and half-knelt down to salute.
"Zhou Linlin! Do you know how important Qiao Zi is to me? You actually agreed to Ximo's request. β
Zhou Linlin smiled, then put down the paperwork in his hand, stood up and slowly walked in front of Mu Xiaofeng, showing a sad face, and asked, "So in your Mu Xiaofeng's heart, is there only Qiao Zi?" β
Mu Xiaofeng lowered his head, didn't dare to look directly at Zhou Linlin, and replied, "Yes, there is only Qiao Zi alone, and he can't accommodate others." β
After hearing this, Zhou Linlin turned around, sighed, and then sat back in her chair and continued to read the paperwork.
"Mu Xiaofeng, since I promised Xi Mo, I can't break my word. If you ask me to take back everything I promised, won't I slap myself in the face twice? Where did I get my prestige as the king of the kingdom? You'd better go back to your hometown to recuperate first, and then go back to the royal capital after you figure it out. After Zhou Linlin finished speaking, he waved his hand at Mu Xiaofeng and motioned for him to leave quickly.
Mu Xiaofeng knew that it was impossible for Zhou Linlin to change his will, so he could only leave helplessly. Zhou Linlin looked at the back of Mu Xiaofeng leaving, lowered her head and muttered to herself: "If you don't want me to marry Jin Shanshan, I am willing to be treacherous for you." β
Not long after Mu Xiaofeng left the palace, he ran into He Qian and Qiao Zi, He Qian saw Mu Xiaofeng coming, so she nodded and left, she knew that Mu Xiaofeng must have a lot to say to Qiao Zi.
Qiao Zi didn't dare to look directly at Mu Xiaofeng when he saw it, so he could only lower his head and prepare to leave.
Mu Xiaofeng reached out and grabbed Qiao Zi's wrist and asked, "Qiao Zi!" Come with me, let's leave Junguo. β
Qiao Zi was stunned at this time, she didn't look back, she just said lightly: "Disobeying the king's order is disloyalty, going against my father's will is unfilial piety, and violating the previous agreement is disbelief." Mu Xiaofeng, do you really want me to bear this charge of disloyalty, filial piety and unbelief? β
"Give it up! Brat! Qiao Zi won't go with you. Xuyuan's voice appeared in Mu Xiaofeng's mind again, and Mu Xiaofeng had a painful headache at this time and knelt on the ground.
Mu Xiaofeng shouted: "I don't care! Even if I am the enemy of the world, I am not afraid. β
"Don't be naΓ―ve, I'm the only one left in the Qiao family, and I still have to think about the future of the Qiao family." After saying that, Qiao Zi struggled to get rid of Mu Xiaofeng's hand and slowly left.
Although walking with his back to Mu Xiaofeng, Qiao Zi was actually in tears a long time ago. She knew that she couldn't turn back and let Mu Xiaofeng discover her tears, otherwise who knew what Mu Xiaofeng would do.
Mu Xiaofeng watched Qiao Zi's figure gradually fade away and disappear from his sight. He slowly got up and staggered to the gate of the royal capital.
Mu Xiaofeng walked to the city gate step by step, his body finally couldn't support it, and his legs were about to fall backwards as soon as he was weak. At this time, there are hands behind him supporting his body.
Mu Xiaofeng looked back and saw that behind him were He Qian and Amy. He Qian didn't worry about Mu Xiaofeng, so she kept secretly following, and Amy also came after seeing He Qian's sneaky appearance.
He Qian looked at Mu Xiaofeng, who had a haggard face, and comforted him softly: "Don't be sad, I'll go with you." β
