After that day, the Emperor did not attend the morning court assembly for three days. It was said that he sat in front of the ruins of the Phoenix Palace for three days and three nights.

Xiaoxiao could not help but sigh when she heard this, but that was all.

A life for a life. The Empress and the Crown Prince had caused the loss of more than thousands of lives for no good reason. She could not pity them.

Rong Yan only sighed and focused on listening to Xiaoxiao talk about her future plans.

Now that the internal troubles had been resolved, the external troubles would naturally not be a problem.

The granary in the world guaranteed the people’s food and clothing. From time to time, she would sneak to the farmland during the harvest and increase the production by 10 to 20%. “No one will starve” was no longer a dream.

Iron weapons and armaments were the foundation of a powerful country. Other than the implementation of the Iron Refinement Compendium, Rong Yan also proposed to increase the salary and post-retirement guarantees, so that joining the army was no longer just a resignation.

Everything was going well, and the space was still in a state of updating and losing contact. Although Xiaoxiao was sure that everything was normal in the space, she was also a little worried. In order to prevent any accidents, she started to move some important things out of the space.

There were so many things, and they were too eye-catching no matter where they were placed. Xiaoxiao had an idea and teleported to the treasure vault of the previous dynasty with Rong Yan, filling up the treasure vault that had already become a ruin.

After doing this, Xiaoxiao finally heard the familiar notification from the space.

[Thank you for completing the hidden mission—Long-Cherished Wish.]

Before Xiaoxiao could understand the meaning of these words, the green smoke on the treasure vault’s altar floated towards the cracked memorial tablet again. Xiaoxiao seemed to see a figure exerting strength on him and instinctively, Xiaoxiao also bent down to him.

A strange light appeared at this moment.

The ancient door that she had seen once before appeared in the light. Xiaoxiao heard the system’s voice coming from afar.

[The dimensional rift has been opened. In order to thank the host for everything you have done for this world, this system can start a journey home for you and extend the life of the original host for you. May I ask if you want to go back?]

Images of her modern life appeared one by one from inside the door. Her friends, her work, her past…

However, Xiaoxiao’s first reaction was still to turn to look at the person beside her.

Rong Yan seemed to be frozen at this moment and could not move. However, as the second person bound to the space, he heard the space notification and saw the door.

[There is only one chance for the dimensional rift to open. The opening time is 60 seconds. If you do not choose within the time limit, it will automatically be considered as giving up.]

[The countdown begins now. 59, 58…]

Rong Yan took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Then, he heard Xiaoxiao’s footsteps approaching.

Was she leaving?

Actually, he had always felt that Xiaoxiao was a fairy sent by the heavens to Great Xia and to his side. Now that the fairy had completed her merits and was returning to the Heavenly Court, he should give her his blessings.

But why was he so sad?

[49, 48…]

The footsteps stopped. Xiaoxiao should have walked to the door. Would they be separated from each other and never see each other again if she took a step forward?

At the thought of this, Rong Yan suddenly opened his eyes. “Xiaoxiao, don’t go!”

For some reason, Xiaoxiao grabbed the doorknob and closed the door.

“I don’t plan to leave. I just closed the door in advance.”

[42… Select manually. The dimensional rift is closed.]

Xiaoxiao smiled at him. “Because there’s someone who seems to be about to cry.”

Rong Yan felt that he had regained his mobility, but he was still frozen on the spot, not knowing how to move.

“You’re not leaving? Didn’t the space say that that’s your real home?”

Xiaoxiao shook her head. “My hometown is where my heart is.”

The people there had long accepted her departure, so why did she have to let her loved ones here suffer the pain of separation again?

She said to Rong Yan, “I’ve already given you my heart.”

The incense smoke that rose gradually dissipated. The phantom condensed in midair seemed to reveal a faint smile.

A few days later, the emperor had already returned to his usual diligence. The commoners and ministers slowly forgot about the Yan Family. Now that the world was peaceful, the officials who had nothing to do remembered that Great Xia lacked a Crown Prince.

The Emperor did not have many sons and even lesser capable ones. For some reason, this group of descendants did not learn their father’s wisdom, nor did they inherit the Emperor’s wisdom. After some thought, the officials fixed their gazes on the handsome, talented, brave, and battle-ready Third Prince.

It was said that His Majesty doted on Noble Consort Ji, so why not carry out this doting even more?

“Your Majesty, the Third Prince is well-versed in both civil and military matters. He has both talent and virtue. I propose to make the Third Prince the heir apparent.”

“Your Majesty, I concur. The Third Prince has made many contributions and has contributed greatly to protecting the Emperor. He is the best candidate to be the heir to the throne!”

“I also concur!”

This was the first time the Emperor had seen the officials so united. He was not used to the morning court assembly without a fight, causing his reaction to be a little slow.

At this moment, Rong Yan, the protagonist, walked out of the crowd. “Thank you for your favor, Officials. I’m flattered.”

“Whether it’s protecting the country or His Majesty, it’s what an official and son should do. You can’t praise me like this.”

The officials immediately said that they were humble and he deserved it.

However, Rong Yan added, “But I don’t have the heart to be the crown prince. I can’t either.”

When the ministers asked why, he said, “As the crown prince, while shouldering the fate of Great Xia, I have to spread my seeds and continue the royal bloodline. Princess An’ning is enough for me in this life.”

This was the first time everyone heard such a reason for rejecting the throne, be it the Emperor or the officials. However, at the same time, they could feel that Rong Yan was telling the truth.

After that, Rong Yan bowed to the Emperor.

“Besides, Father is in his prime now. It’s not too late to discuss the matter of the crown prince in a few decades.”

The Emperor laughed loudly, and the ministers felt that it made sense. Rong Yan continued.

“Father, everything is peaceful now. I want to ask for a decree.”

His face was a little red. “On the tenth of next month, it’s an auspicious day…” ***

The seventh day of the seventh month in the 288th year of the Great Xia Calendar. On this auspicious day, it was suitable for them to marry.

The bridal escort team from the Third Prince’s residence took a long detour and arrived at the entrance of the General’s Residence, which was only 100 steps away, to bring his beloved wife home.

The citizens of the Imperial Capital sincerely wished for these two nobles, who had brought peace and tranquility to Great Xia, to be united forever and live happily together for a hundred years.

The End..
