Yao Feng was a little confused by his question, and the look in his eyes just now made Yao Feng a little uncomfortable.

She pretended to be calm and replied, "I will naturally have my own plans if I don't stay in Kyoto."

Then he glanced at Dan Ming and said to Dan Jing, "Ming'er and I still have something to talk about. Please step aside, Mr. Dan."

After saying this, Dan Jing left Dan Ming's room.

She said to Dan Ming earnestly, "Ming'er, are you sure you want to live your whole life in Kyoto with your cousin? If I leave Kyoto, no one will be able to protect you."

Dan Ming's eyes were full of determination at this moment, "City Lord, I love my cousin, and he loves me too. He will definitely protect me. City Lord, please rest assured."

Seeing that she was so determined, Yao Feng didn't know what to say, so just follow Ming'er's wishes.

In the evening, she went to the palace to find Li Qilong.

At night, the breeze is gentle, the moon is bright, and the sky is full of stars.

She and Li Qilong sat in the pavilion next to the lotus pond. She leaned on Li Qilong's shoulder and told her about Dan Ming.

"I'm a little worried about Ming'er."

Li Qilong smiled warmly, lowered his head and kissed Yaofeng's forehead gently, and said warmly,

"Yao'er, it's okay. There will be no problem with these two childhood sweethearts."

"After we leave, her name as Mrs. Zhaoxin will still be there, and no one can touch her."

"If she wants to marry her cousin, it will be her cousin who marries the general."

Only then did Yao Feng squeeze out a smile.

"OK."

"Okay, let's talk about how we leave Kyoto."

Li Qilong held his forehead and said with a headache, this is the reason why he came to Yaofeng today.

"I want to give the Zen position to Li Qihong."

Yao Feng was a little surprised. Her originally narrow and beautiful fox eyes were now bulging with confusion, "But he has hurt you before, aren't you afraid that he will trouble you again in the future?"

Li Qilong smiled bitterly, "Yao'er, you don't understand."

In fact, in terms of relationships, his relationship with the other three princes except Li Qihong is better, but...

"My eldest brother is not interested in political affairs. He stays in the house all day drinking tea, admiring flowers and playing with birds."

"The fourth brother has been obsessed with the land of fireworks and fragrant willows all day long, and has even made a lifelong private commitment to a woman in Yihong Courtyard."

"As for the fifth brother, his talents are on par with the second brother. It's just that his background is too humble, and I'm afraid that the officials will be dissatisfied if he sits on the throne."

"He was a maid sent by the queen to crawl into the father's bed. The father never wanted to see him. He casually gave his mother a title and never went to her palace again."

"It seems that the second prince, the Queen's direct descendant, is suitable for this throne."

Yao Feng thought for a while after listening to his words, "Why don't we give your fifth brother a chance? After all, Li Qihong has made such a big mistake. If we hand over the power to him again, I'm afraid there will be no peace between us and the world."

"Besides, Ming'er is still in Beijing, so someone needs to help us take care of her."

Li Qilong nodded and agreed with her statement. It was indeed not a good idea to let the second prince take the throne again.

"Okay, then I will pretend to be seriously ill, give the Zen position to my fifth brother, and then ask him to help me fake death."

"Let's leave Kyoto together again."

Yaofeng's eyes curled up, "Okay."

In the autumn of Qiyuan 1012, Li Qilong, the greatest emperor of Shu since Li Renhuang, the founding emperor of Shu, became seriously ill.

"By God's blessing, the Emperor has issued an edict. Since His Majesty has no children, he has given the throne to His Highness the Fifth Prince. I express my admiration for this."

Li Qilin's face was full of astonishment when he heard this imperial edict.

Before he could figure out what was going on, he was called to Li Qilong's side.

When he saw him coming, Li Qilong immediately sat up and explained the general situation to Li Qilin.

Li Qilong was even more stunned by his words. How could anyone give up his position as emperor so well?

Li Qilong smiled and explained to him, "There are always things in this world that are more important than power."

Li Qilin was half-aware of his words.

"Why choose me."

"No reason, because you are worthy of the throne."

When he heard this, Li Qilin's eyes became hazy. All he had heard since he was a child was that he was not worthy. This seemed to be the first time someone said that he was worthy.

Li Qilong patted him on the shoulder and said, "I just want you to protect the Kingdom of Shu. Don't worry about other things."

Li Qilin nodded solemnly and accepted this important task.

"Also, I have an old friend named Dan Ming. Please take care of her after I leave."

Then Yaofeng and Li Qilin made an appointment to leave Kyoto quietly, and the two of them returned to Tanzhou.

After they left, Li Qilin became the emperor. Sure enough, he had some talents. When he was in power, he selected talents and promoted them, and also established the imperial examination system.

People refer to this period of governance by Emperor Sheng, Li Qilong, and Li Qilin as the rule of Sheng Qi.

Li Qilin also followed Li Qilong's wishes and additionally named Dan Ming "Mrs. Zhaoxin", allowed her to remarry Dan Jing, and gave Dan Jing a casual position.

When Li Cheng was weak, he was made the general of the Zhu Kingdom.

After hearing this, Yaofeng's story was finished.

Yaofeng lay lazily on the couch and asked, "Do you have any questions?"

Song Qi was very curious when he just listened to her telling the story, "Could this young master be the great uncle of the current emperor? He doesn't look like someone in his 80s at all."

Yao Feng covered her mouth and smiled, "If he were still in Kyoto, he wouldn't be so young, but he is staying with me after all. My skills can shape the human form and cultivate the human body. As long as I don't die, he can live as long as he wants."

Then she turned her eyes to Song Yu and said, "I know why you came here, and what do you want to ask?"

"I only kept the first volume of that book in Kyoto, a copy in the library, and a copy in the hands of Ming'er's son. You came here to ask me for the next step."

"And you want to know why you have purple eyes, right?"

Song Yu's eyes trembled, shocked by Yaofeng's ability to predict events like a god.

She opened her mouth and said, "The city lord is really knowledgeable about things."

The corner of Yao Feng's lips curled up, "I can tell you the latter, because I am a demon, so I was born with purple eyes. And you..."

She suddenly approached Song Yu, stared into Song Yu's eyes, and her face instantly changed into a ferocious one.

Even Song Qi and Li Yuanheng were shocked.

Then she lay back again and said, "Don't worry, you are not a monster."

"As for that booklet, guess why I divided it into two parts."

After saying that, she giggled.

Li Yuanheng said,

"Don't the city lord want to know how Mrs. Zhaoxin is doing now?"
