When Ning Yue heard this news, she was also shocked.

Although Ning Yue pitied the 12-year-old child, everything was the emperor’s decision. No matter how pitiful that child was, she could not say anything.

Wouldn’t the child that was secretly raised in the manor be raised in captivity?

However, speaking of which, although he was raised in captivity, he did not have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life. It was a mixed blessing.

It was hard to say. Ning Yue sighed heavily.

“Yueyue, let’s enter the palace to visit Uncle tomorrow night,” Jiang Ying said to Ning Yue.

The most important thing was to see the Retired Emperor. After all, although the Retired Emperor was awake now, who knew how his health was?

Almost all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital said that there was nothing to save him. Only Ning Yue could save him.

Ning Yue nodded. She was also prepared to enter the palace every day. The most important thing was to treat the Retired Emperor.

After a while, the emperor sent the eunuch beside him to invite the two of them into the palace. Ning Yue placed everything she needed in the first aid kit before following them into the palace in peace.

It was best not to expose the matter of the space as much as possible. She did not want to be demonized on the spot.

The atmosphere in the palace was different because of the Retired Emperor’s improvement.

Ning Yue entered the Retired Emperor’s bedroom to take his pulse. She quickly concluded that the Retired Emperor’s poison had been removed.

Although the Retired Emperor was happy, he also asked Jiang Ying to persuade the emperor to spare the perpetrators if he could. After all, he was fine and lucky to live.

However, the emperor did not agree. He believed that if they could harm the Retired Emperor, they could harm him. If he was not lucky, he would die just like that.

Wouldn’t the entire Great Yun Nation be destroyed?

The emperor did not dare to imagine the consequences of this matter, so he did not reply to the Retired Emperor.

Fortunately, the Retired Emperor’s attitude was not as firm as before. He thought that the world was now under the emperor’s control. He was already old and would not interfere in the emperor’s decisions.

Therefore, this matter was decided just like that.

What shocked Ning Yue was not only the Retired Emperor being poisoned, but also the news from Yuan Hui, who was far away in the Black City Kingdom.

He told Ning Yue that Lian Xin had committed suicide.

When Ning Yue saw this letter, she was very shocked. She could not believe that someone like Lian Xin would commit suicide.

After reading Yuan Hui’s letter carefully, Ning Yue’s shocked heart gradually calmed down.

Yes, Lian Xin had committed suicide. Before he died, he had written an edict of concession. He had given the throne of the Black City Kingdom to Yuan Hui.

As Yuan Hui was the emperor of a country, the Black City Kingdom was directly integrated into the territory of Russia.

Therefore, the Black City Kingdom’s territory was decided just like that.

As for whether Lian Xin was really dead, Yuan Hui told Ning Yue in the letter that there was no need to pursue the matter. He asked Ning Yue to live well in the heir’s fief.

Ning Yue handed the letter to Jiang Ying. Soon, Jiang Ying’s expression became a little strange. He didn’t even know what Lian Xin was thinking.

Lian Xin set herself on fire? Stop joking. He couldn’t have set himself on fire.

Therefore, Jiang Ying had a guess in his heart. Lian Xin’s self-immolation was fake, and his escape was real. He was no longer the emperor, and they did not know where he was.

At the thought of this, Jiang Ying’s expression became even stranger. Could this person be wanting to snatch Ning Yue from him again?

Jiang Ying secretly glanced at Ning Yue. Ning Yue did not seem to notice anything strange about Jiang Ying.

After thinking about it, Jiang Ying decided not to tell Ning Yue this. Just as he was about to say something, Ning Yue spoke first.

“I think Lian Xin isn’t dead,” Ning Yue said.

Jiang Ying held back the shock in his heart. He sized up Ning Yue calmly and asked, “Why do you think so?”

“I guessed. 1 just feel that he’s wreaking havoc and won’t die so easily. There’s a saying that goes, someone who wreaks havoc will live for a thousand years,” Ning Yue said.

Her words were very simple and made Jiang Ying very happy.

No matter what, his Yueyue was only on his side. That was enough.

Soon, Yuan Hui returned after dealing with the matters of the Black City Kingdom. Of course, he did not leave immediately after dealing with them. He arranged for many trusted aides to take on important positions in the Black City Kingdom.

In this way, if the remaining members of the royal family of the Black City Kingdom wanted to rebel, they would have to think twice.

He rushed over, looking travel-worn. When he saw Ning Yue, a smile appeared on his face. “It’s time for you to get married. It’s been so long since you received the imperial edict. You should get married..”
