Fragrant willow catkins

In the capital of the East Kingdom, Qingfeng led an army of ferocious beasts, sitting on the tiger king in front of the team, with Xiao Le and Dugu riding one horse on each side of him.

Behind the three of them was the follower who was locked in a prison van. He had a dazed look in his eyes and was holding up Dong Huang’s head with a stick as he returned to the city in a high-profile manner.

The three of them led the army straight to the palace. Seeing this scene, the guards did not dare to step forward to stop them, and those who dared to step forward were roared back by the ferocious beast.

Under the gaze of everyone, the three of them entered the hall. Qingfeng sat on the throne, Xiao Le and Dugu stood beside him, and Qingfeng crossed his legs while waiting for others.

After a while, generals and ministers rushed to the palace upon hearing the news and surrounded the hall with their troops.

One person stepped forward and said, "Who are you? How dare you sit on the dragon throne? You are seeking death!"

Qingfeng: "Tsk, do you know that you will die if you talk to me like this?"

The tiger king growled and walked towards the man.

The man seemed to be a general. He was frightened and took a step back, but then bravely stepped forward and said, "I am not afraid!"

Qingfeng smiled, quite appreciative of him, "I'm happy today, let me tell you, I'm the son of the War King, and the future new emperor of your East Country."

"The War King's child?"

"Didn't they all die on the battlefield?"

"seriously?"

"If you can control ferocious beasts, how can it be fake?!"

Listening to the discussion, the leading general raised another question, "You are the son of the War King, but how can you ascend to the throne? The East Kingdom has Prince Zhao! You are rebelling!"

Qing Feng raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you see that the head hanging on the prison cart outside the palace was your Dong Huang's head?"

Some of the ministers in the hall were shocked, while others recognized him before coming in and lowered their heads in deep thought.

Qingfeng continued to explain the facts, "Some of you should know that the Emperor of the East led his troops to the Southern Kingdom, intending to attack the Southern Kingdom. But his plan failed and he died. Your Crown Prince Zhao also died. Now the one with the highest divine power in the Eastern Kingdom's royal family is me. If you don't want to hire me as the new emperor, then you can let the Eastern Kingdom fend for itself."

After saying that, Qingfeng stood up and prepared to leave.

If it weren't for the fact that his master had paved the way for the throne of the Eastern Kingdom, and he didn't want others to take advantage of it, he wouldn't have come.

Before he even stepped off the first step, one of the ministers said, "Wait a minute!"

Qingfeng retracted his foot and looked at the people below indifferently. Seeing that they were hesitant, he turned around and sat on the dragon chair to rest. He turned around and asked Xiao Le and Dugu, "Are you tired? Do you want to sit for a while?"

After a long, long time...

The three of them sat on the dragon throne together, propping up their heads and watching the ministers discuss the matter below.

They are really annoying!

Just as the three were about to fall asleep, a loud and unanimous shout came from below, "Congratulations to the new emperor on his ascension to the throne! Long live the emperor!"

Qingfeng was awakened, and waved his hands as if he was still half asleep, "Alright, alright, come up and do your work for me, get to the point, and stop talking nonsense!"

Fifteen years later, Qingfeng was inspecting work on the city wall when a palace servant came to report that there was a man at the palace gate who claimed to be Qingfeng's acquaintance and wanted to meet him.

Qingfeng excitedly asked someone to welcome her in and walked quickly towards the palace gate.

On the palace road, Qingfeng felt a little disappointed when he saw the face of the person who came, but then he felt happy.

"Miss Hua!"

Wu Hualing walked up to him with a smile, "You haven't changed much in appearance, you're still so handsome."

"Of course not!" The two turned around and walked towards the palace. "It's been a long time since we last met. Xiao Le and Du Gu miss you very much."

Wu Hualing: "Really? Then I have to meet them properly."

After walking a few steps, Wu Hualing spoke in a deep voice and looked at Qingfeng with a serious face, "Actually, I came here this time... for another matter."

Seeing her serious expression, Qingfeng stopped and took her to the city wall.

The two of them walked up to the tower together, feeling the cool breeze. The breeze sent away all the palace guards, "Sister Hua, tell me."

Wu Hualing: "I came here this time because of Zhao."

Ok?

Qingfeng was now in high spirits. There had been no news of Wu Zhao since the palace coup and he had been wandering around the world with Wu Hualing.

Qingfeng: "What happened to him?"

Wu Hualing: "Hey, it's because you are getting old, and you haven't been crowned queen for a long time, and you have no children. He is worried that there will be no one to take over the throne of the East Kingdom in the future. He asked me to find out and advise you to choose a successor from the side branch as soon as possible and train him well."

Wu Zhao feels satisfied with his sister's company. Family affection is what he desires most. Being able to accompany Wu Hualing, he has no regrets in this life.

But he also often paid attention to the news from the East.

Qingfeng was very surprised. Wu Zhao was indeed the crown prince back then. He was so dedicated. But...

"Xiao Le and I only have Dugu, so how can we have the energy to raise another one?"

In the year he ascended the throne, Qingfeng conferred the title of prince on Xiao Le and the title of princess on Dugu, and the three of them lived together in the palace.

Wu Hualing sighed, "I told him the same thing, but he just loves to worry about things. I came here just to reassure him. Don't think too much. I won't rush you."

Qing Feng raised his eyebrows, "I know this for sure, but sister, I just got an idea, you can go back and tell him not to worry."

Wu Hualing nodded, "Okay, let's go and meet Xiao Le and Dugu."

She turned around and prepared to go down the city wall.

"Sister Hua!" Qingfeng called her. Wu Hualing turned around, feeling a little lonely. "Do you... have any news about the master?"

"..."

Wu Hualing was in a low mood, "No..."

Qingfeng sighed, "Forget it, let's go."

Wu Hualing: “Yeah.”

The matter of adoption through the collateral branch gave Qingfeng some inspiration. Currently, there are no available people in the collateral branch of the East Country, but... there is a place where there are available people!

So, not long after, Qingfeng, despite the dissuasion of the ministers, gave up his throne to the eldest son of King Mo of the Southern Kingdom, and disappeared from the sight of the world with Xiao Le and Dugu.

It was not until then that everyone knew that Prince Mo had been endowed with dual divine powers since childhood. He had sensed something was wrong when he was young, and had never displayed the power of the Eastern Royal Family in front of outsiders. He tried his best to hide himself in front of everyone, and listened to Concubine De's words, being honest and steady and taking every step well.

After reaching adulthood and getting married, he lived in semi-retirement with his beloved, also in order to avoid being known by the public that his eldest son possessed the power of the Eastern Kingdom's royal family.

The story ends here, and the story on Yongan Continent also comes to an end for the time being...
