Jiang Miao sat on the bed blankly, looking at the spacious, clean but dark secret room in front of her, feeling a little depressed.

This secret room didn't even have a small window.

There is no natural light, only the fiery red candlelight.

Staying here these past few days, he didn't even know when it was day or night.

If Xu Shaoqing hadn't come here every day, he probably wouldn't have been able to count how long he had been here.

Rumbling--

The sound of stones rubbing against each other was heard.

Jiang Miao suddenly came to her senses, jumped out of bed and ran to the stone door.

As soon as the door opened, Xu Shaoqing, who was wearing white clothes and holding a food box in his hand, found Jiang Miao waiting for him at the door. He looked at him with crooked eyebrows and said, "Miaomiao."

Jiang Miao came closer, held the food box for him, and asked curiously: "What did you eat today?"

"Nothing special, just your usual favorite dishes."

Xu Shaoqing pressed the hidden mechanism on the wall, and a stone table and two stone stools instantly appeared in the center of the secret room.

Jiang Miao was no longer surprised, and skillfully put the food box on it, took out the food and arranged it neatly.

Four dishes and one soup, three meat dishes and one vegetarian dish, and a drawer of rice.

Jiang Miao's appetite was whetted by the fragrant aroma and she couldn't wait to eat.

Xu Shaoqing looked at him, his lips slightly curved, his eyes full of Jiang Miao eating with gusto.

Seeing that he was smiling stupidly and not eating, Jiang Miao looked confused and asked, "Why don't you eat?"

"I've eaten." Xu Shaoqing served him food in a gentle voice, "Today is the coronation ceremony of the new emperor, and everyone is celebrating. I ate in the palace before coming back."

"The coronation ceremony of the new emperor?" Jiang Miao lay on her stomach, moved closer, and blinked with a gossipy look on her face, "Who is the new emperor? Is the coronation ceremony grand? Is it very lively outside?"

Xu Shaoqing's thin lips moved slightly, and when he was about to reply, the person opposite him who was so excited just now suddenly froze and yearned, "I really want to go out and have a look. I have never seen the enthronement ceremony."

As he said that, he raised his head and looked up at him with bright eyes, his eyes reflecting the dancing candlelight, his face full of excitement and expectation, "Shaoqing, can you take me out for a look? I'm fine now. I'm healthy." Very well, there’s no need to worry about me getting sick.”

Xu Shaoqing looked at the expectant people, his expression froze slightly, and his smile became a little unnatural, "Miaomiao, when dynasties change, the situation is not stable, and do you know who the new emperor is?"

"Who is it?" Jiang Miao stuffed a mouthful of meat, her cheeks bulging, eating like a little hamster, and when she tilted her head in confusion, she looked even cuter.

Xu Shaoqing felt like something had hit his heart, and he wanted to poke his cheek, so he did so.

Jiang Miao was a little confused when he was poked. The food almost came out of his pocket and sprayed in his face. Fortunately, he ate it in a hurry and this tragedy did not happen.

"I'm eating, don't touch me." Jiang Miao glared at him, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Cough..." Xu Shaoqing covered her lips in embarrassment and coughed, but she smiled happily, "I couldn't help it."

"Hmph, don't change the subject. Who is the new emperor? Don't say that you beat around the bush and don't want to take me out because of him." Jiang Miao rolled her eyes in disbelief.

"It's Yan Qi." After Xu Shaoqing said that, he looked at him quietly to observe his reaction.

Hearing this name, Jiang Miao paused and was a little surprised, "Why him?"

Yan Qi is the bloodline of the Li Dynasty, and now he is Dayao. Why is the emperor not Xu Shaoqing but Yan Qi?

He thought he was going to ascend the throne after a busy day, but he ended up being a foil.
