The Fourth Lady novel Chapter 568

This morning. Thick smoke began to billow from the Pudu Temple not far from Fengjing. Not long after, people saw the fire shoot up into the sky, and soon it drowned the entire temple in the flames. Because of the explosion of the flames, many innocent people who could not escape all were buried in the flames.

This natural disaster lasted for ten days and ten nights. On the tenth day, it was not until the rain that stopped the disaster.

However, within Fengjing, there were all corpses, houses and animals all over the city. The people who had escaped Fengjing were hiding thousands of miles away from the city. All of them saw the panic caused by the volcanic eruption.

Rumor went on that God gave them this punishment because of the sins of Weisheng Junyan. Moreover, Empress Xianyi was wronged. So the disaster happened.

Hearing this, commoners began to think of the kindness of the deceased empress. Even so, they also knew that she had passed away for many years.

Weisheng Junyan had to take the responsibility of the natural disaster in an undeniable manner. He did not think that it was caused by him, but the public opinion was too fierce, so he had no choice but to pass the throne to Yvning. Originally, he wanted Qilian Qinglang to be the new Shezhengwang, but he gave up the position in the end.

As a matter of fact, Qilian Qinglang's ambition was crystal clear to him. He believed that with Yvning's current abilities, he would definitely be able to ask Qilian Qinglang to help or even kill Qilian Qinglang.

And on the first day that Yvning became the new emperor, he withdraw the title of Weisheng Junyan, and Weisheng Junyan had become a prisoner when he didn't know what had happened at all.

Yvning gave his biological mother the title of 'Imperial Taihou' after he ascended to the throne. Meanwhile, Her adoptive mother, Concubine Shu, was given the title of 'Taihou Huikang' while Concubine De was given the title of 'Taihou Huishou'. Yvning also respected his Yifu, Junmo, as Kangrui Lord and conferred the title of 'Princess Heshuo Roujia' to his sister, Weisheng Yvjing. (*TN:The mother of a emperor is often given the title of 'Taihou'.)

When Qingyan got the news, she was having tea in a suburban yard.

"Mistress, now that the new emperor is on the throne, everything is settled. When shall we go back?" Yaochi said calmly, looking at Qingyan.

"Settled?" Qingyan raised her head and shook her head. "Although Yvning is now the new emperor, a lot of people have been coveting his position. Moreover, Marquis Anguo hasn't been eliminated yet. Since the new emperor is enthroned, it won't be long before Marquis Anguo is removed." Qingyan took a sip of tea while speaking.

"Mistress, what should we do now?" Looking at Qingyan, Yaochi asked, "and how are we going to do with Weisheng Junyan and Qilian Qingyi?"

Sitting there, Qingyan rubbed her chin and looked at Yaochi with mischievous smile. But Yaochi felt schemes in it.

He knew that his mistress would not let go of Weisheng Junyan and Qilian Qingyi so easily.

"Since Yvning is now the emperor, it's up to him how to deal with Weisheng Junyan and Qilian Qingyi." "But I also want to know what will happen to them." Qingyan said calmly.

"What do you want to do, mistress?" "Now both Weisheng Junyan and Qilian Qingyi are imprisoned." said Yaochi respectfully.

Looking at Yaochi, Qingyan nodded seriously and said, "let's go to visit Qilian Qingyi first." As she spoke, she stood up and added, "don't say anything about our returning. Yvning has just ascended the throne and needs great help."

Yaochi nodded seriously.
