Forced to die for his loyalty, he was reborn in the arms of the cold and cruel regent!

Qi Sui'an's gaze stayed on her for a moment.

"Get up, I won't kill you." Qi Sui'an finally spoke, his voice was cold, but with a hint of gentleness that was hard to detect. He took a step forward and gently lifted up Yu Li who was kneeling on the ground. Their eyes met at this moment, as if they had thousands of words to say but couldn't.

"I won't blame you. But you must understand that from now on, you must live for yourself and stay away from these disputes." Qi Sui'an said earnestly.

Yuli heard this, a flash of disbelief flashed in her eyes, and then deep gratitude. She knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to Qi Sui'an, tears welling up in her eyes: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me. From now on, Yuli will turn over a new leaf and become a new person."

All the disputes seemed to have returned to peace.

The weather is warming up and spring has fully arrived. There is a constant stream of guests coming and going in the No. 1 Restaurant in the World.

Qi Suian would come straight here after court every day.

Shen Mengyao seemed a little distressed, staring at the beautiful scenery outside the window. It was spring outside, with flowers blooming everywhere, but she seemed to have no intention of appreciating them.

Qi Sui'an stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her: "Are you worried about something?"

"It's my father. He can't sit still now that he's well. He's been clamoring to go back to the border these days." Shen Mengyao sighed.

"The Duke has been in Xingwu all the time, so it's normal for him to miss old people and old things." Qi Sui'an nodded in understanding.

"It's not that I'm selfish, it's just that he was injured this time and lost a lot of his vitality. I want him to stay in the capital for a few more days." Shen Mengyao supported his head, extremely distressed.

Qi Sui'an suddenly followed her words and said, "I also want him to stay in the capital for a few more days."

"Why?" Shen Mengyao rolled her eyes at him.

Qi Sui'an's eyes suddenly became gentle as water: "Because I want to marry you, this time I hope your relatives and friends are here, let them watch you marry me, I will treat you well for the rest of my life."

Shen Mengyao's face turned red instantly.

She lowered her head and smiled shyly. She was a little overwhelmed by the sudden happiness. The sunlight from the window shone through the veil and sprinkled on her face, reflecting a soft golden color, which made her look more charming.

"Are... are you telling the truth?" Shen Mengyao's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but it could not hide the excitement and anticipation in her heart.

Qi Sui'an held her hand gently, his eyes flashing with determination and tenderness: "Of course it's true, Mengyao, I want to spend the rest of my life with you and let everyone witness our happiness."

Shen Mengyao raised her head and looked at Qi Suian. There seemed to be a sea of ​​stars in those deep eyes, which made her instantly fall in love. She nodded gently, tears welling up in her eyes, tears of happiness: "Okay, I do."

"I will never let you down in this life." Qi Sui'an held her hand tightly, his eyes fixed.

Early the next morning, after last week, he stayed in the Qinzheng Palace and asked the emperor for permission to marry him.

The emperor was also pleasantly surprised: "Oh? My dear, do you have a woman in your heart that you want to spend your life with?"

There was a hint of curiosity and relief in the emperor's words. He knew very well how much effort and hard work Qi Suian had put into the Great Qi Empire over the years as the regent. Now that he was finally willing to settle down and find his own happiness, he was naturally happy to see it happen.

"Your Majesty, I do have someone I like, she is the daughter of Duke Shen, Shen Mengyao." Qi Suian answered respectfully, his joy and anticipation unable to be concealed in his words.

This was expected. The emperor pondered for a moment, raised his eyes and asked, "Don't you despise her for being a remarried woman?"

"Getting this woman is like getting a treasure. Now that I can marry my beloved one home, I will definitely treat her well. How dare I feel disgusted with her?" Qi Sui'an said sincerely.

The emperor smiled slightly when he heard this. Duke Shen was not only a pillar of the country, but also loyal. His daughter Shen Mengyao was gentle and virtuous, with outstanding talents. She was indeed a good match for Qi Sui'an. "Okay, I will decree the marriage and choose an auspicious day for you two to get married."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Qi Suian knelt deeply.

The news spread like wildfire, and their union became almost the hottest topic in the capital. Everyone would talk about it after dinner.

Shen Mengyao was happily preparing her wedding dress, but the Queen Mother said that since she grew up in the palace, she would naturally have to marry out of the palace, so she issued an edict and asked her to enter the palace immediately.

The embroiderers in the palace embroidered the pattern of the phoenix seeking the empress vividly, and used gold thread to embroider the bright red clothes, making it look luxurious and festive.

The Queen Mother held her hand and said, "I have selected a few ladies for you. They will comb your hair and make sure you get married with great fortune."

"The Royal Grandmother cares so much about me, I really have no way to repay her." Shen Mengyao knelt on the ground and said sincerely.

"You have eliminated the evildoers and cured my illness. This is what you deserve. You have such a sincere heart, so please don't let anyone down again." The Queen Mother patted his hands gently.

At this moment, Fu Qing came over quickly and said with a smile: "Empress Dowager, the Regent is here."

The Queen Mother was in a good mood and made a joke: "You see, a man who usually looks noble and upright, but he couldn't wait to come looking for her just because he detained his wife for a few days."

"Grandmother, you only know how to make fun of Mengyao." Shen Mengyao blushed with embarrassment.

Qi Sui'an entered the Queen Mother's bedroom with steady steps and a hint of imperceptible eagerness. He first bowed to the Queen Mother, and then his eyes fell gently on Shen Mengyao. His deep affection and doting made everyone present feel the unusual tacit understanding and love between them.

"Your humble servant pays his respects to the Empress Dowager." Qi Sui'an's voice was low and respectful, but it could not hide the joy in it.

The Queen Mother smiled and waved her hand, signaling him to excuse himself. "No need to be polite, Prince Regent. I was just discussing your marriage with Meng Yao. You've come at the right time. Please listen to whether my arrangement suits your taste."

Qi Sui'an walked to Shen Mengyao's side, gently took her hand, his eyes full of tenderness: "The Queen Mother's arrangement is naturally excellent. I am very grateful, and I only hope that I can marry Mengyao as soon as possible and grow old together."

The Queen Mother was even more satisfied when she saw this. She sighed softly and said earnestly: "It is a blessing for the royal family and Daqi that you can know each other and stay together. Mengyao is a good child. You must treat her well and don't let her down."

"I will definitely keep it in mind and live up to your wishes in this life." Qi Sui'an promised solemnly, every word coming from his heart.

"Okay, I won't disturb your gathering. The style of the wedding dress has been decided. You can go with Mengyao to take a look. Your feelings are what matter most." The Queen Mother said, yawning.

After the two of them paid their respects, they said goodbye and left Xingqing Palace.
