The legitimate daughter was reborn, and the emperor’s little Jiaojiao went crazy.

Chapter 1028: Evil Neon Flower

Xiao Zhi was deserted by his friends and family. What comforted him was that Tang was still alive.

He also suddenly understood that it was because Tang was still alive that when he proposed to his father to join the game, lead the four great families to rebel, and completely eliminate the hidden dangers in the northern wing, his father was still willing to believe him and give him a chance to reform.

Otherwise, he will be blamed for his death.

Even if Tang died, even if Xiao Yunde became decadent, Shi Anxia would not let him go.

Because during the chess game, he had already seen the overwhelming murderous intent in Shi Anxia's eyes.

Dreams are indeed the opposite. The gentle and peaceful eyes in the dream are murderous in reality.

Xiao Zhi didn't want to indulge in dreams anymore, but sometimes he was too fragile and couldn't help himself, unable to see the distance between dreams and reality.

He was willing to go to his fiefdom and stay away from Shi Anxia.

Perhaps time can dilute everything, including desires and stupidity.

Before leaving Beijing, Xiao Zhi attended the coronation ceremony of the new emperor.

Strange things happen every year, and this year there are especially many in the north wing. The two previous emperors watched the new emperor ascend the throne at the same time, which became a legend among the nations.

The Northern Wing royal family is well-known for its friendship, humility, and unity, and is widely praised.

All the states came to congratulate, except Liang, because the situation in Liang was said to be tense and it had no time to care about other things.

The new emperor of Beiyi ascended the throne and named the reign title Jingxuan, calling himself Emperor Wenxuan. At the same time, a new empress was enthroned.

The speed of the abdication set three unprecedented records: the fastest throne handover ceremony in history, the shortest enthronement ceremony for the new monarch, and the most efficient ceremony for enthroning the queen in history.

This series of changes not only caught the Ministry of Rites and civil and military officials off guard, but also confused the common people.

"What? A new emperor?"

"Who? Prince Li? The Ninth Prince? Isn't that still a child?"

"Hee, he's not even a child compared to his queen! His queen is a child!"

"Don't be afraid, the court is backed by the Emperor, it's stable!"

The prestige of Emperor Shengde is still as high as ever.

The first imperial decree issued by Emperor Wenxuan after he came to power was to deal with the four great families.

The four surnames of Gui, Qin, Lin, and Guo have received the grace of the country for generations, but they have harbored evil intentions. Now, according to the "Northern Wing Criminal Code", the main offender will be sentenced to death by slicing, the three clans will be executed in the market, and the rest of the clans will be exiled to Mozhou.

All the tombstones of the four surnames were removed and dug up, and the tablets in the ancestral halls were thrown into the manure pit. All the genealogical records of the four surnames were deleted, and their descendants were forever forbidden to participate in the imperial examinations.

All the land, shops and banks of the four families were confiscated and used as military settlements on the border. Their residences were demolished and rebuilt into a shrine to martyrs.

Half of the gold and silver was used to reward the border troops, and the other half was used to enrich the national treasury.

His family academy was converted into a charity school to enroll children from poor families.

……

When this decree was issued, the government and the people were shocked and excited. It was really because the four great families had been dominating and abusing their power for too long.

Although the new emperor's methods were cruel, they did serve as a warning to the rest.

A gossiper wrote a poem: There are few carriages and horses in front of Lin Guo's gate, and the swallows fly away from Gui Qin's house. A three-foot-long icy silk screen hangs on the beam, and the moon shines on the blood of the nine clans, turning it into mud.

The four great families thus perished, and no one in the Northern Wing would dare to rebel for at least a hundred years.

There is a lot of discussion and different opinions among the people.

But the people were more interested in the Queen of Beiyi who had not yet reached the age of marriage.

"The Wei family has won."

"The smoke coming out of the Wei family's ancestral tomb is not green smoke, but purple air!"

"I heard that the queen looks like a fairy! My sister-in-law's cousin's father-in-law is a colleague of Lord Wei. He once visited the Wei family and saw the fairy with his own eyes... At that time, he said that this girl was auspicious and would become a great person."

I don't know which curious person climbed up the wall of Wei's mansion and took a look. Wow, the house was full of pink, purple, red and white flowers, in clusters. The white and pink ones looked like clouds, and the red and purple ones looked like flames.

What kind of flower is this? Upon asking, I found out that this flower is not only beautiful, but also has a nice name: Rainbow Flower.

Some people say that everything has gone smoothly since the Wei family planted this flower.

May your career and marriage be smooth. May your wishes come true.

Upon further inquiry, it was said that the families that were on good terms with the Wei family all planted colorful flowers, and everything went well for them.

By the way, the Young Master's Mansion also planted colorful flowers. Not only will the divorced woman Tang in the mansion soon become the Empress Dowager, but now there is another major event. After Emperor Wenxuan ascended the throne, he immediately named Princess Haiyan the eldest princess.

Just tell me, does this flower work? Is it weird or not?

There was an inexplicable craze for growing colorful flowers in the capital, and Madam Gu made a fortune.

Mrs. Gu never expected that business would boom so suddenly, and she was not mentally prepared.

A lot of money was poured into the Gu family, and people lined up to wait for the neon flower. Some people were even willing to pay more to jump the queue and plant it first.

Urgent! Everyone is in a hurry!

Qin Fangfei held a banquet that day without telling the reason, but everyone knew it was to celebrate Tang Chujun's escape from death.

Qin Fangfei smiled and said, "I asked Madam Gu to have tea three times, and she kept asking me out, but she never showed up."

Mrs. Zhao covered her mouth and laughed, "She is busy selling flowers! Her business is really enviable. My old Zhao is always thinking about how to make a living from this business."

"Your Lord Zhao is just talking big. If you really ask him to deal with this and that, he will flip the table." Zheng Qiaoer took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "Selling flowers in the capital is not just handing over silver and flowers. Who doesn't have to chat with you for a while?"

Tang Chujun nodded and said, "Only Madam Gu handled it properly. She can even make a dead person come back to life."

As everyone was talking, Madam Gu arrived.

She rushed into the yard with a group of servants, and the boxes and crates gleamed brightly under the sun.

Sweat was dripping down her forehead, and a gold-and-jade dragonfly hairpin on her temple trembled. "Oh, my Mr. Chu Sheng thinks so highly of me! How can I feel embarrassed?"

Tang Chujun curved his eyebrows and said, "Come quickly, I'm waiting for you."

"Here they come, they rush here." The servants behind Madam Gu were holding boxes and distributing gifts one by one.

"Mrs. Gu is like this every time she comes. She treats everyone with courtesy. I don't even know who is the host!" Qin Fangfei took the gift with a smile and opened it on the spot.

Madam Gu said, "This is the new mother-of-pearl rouge from the south. It goes perfectly with the apricot-red shirt you made last month."

The rose-red paste lies in the small gilded round box, which gleams with the luster of mother-of-pearl in the sunlight.

Qin Fangfei was delighted. "I have to say, Madam Gu, this gift from you really touched my heart."

"I'm only doing this because we're all familiar with each other." Madam Gu also helped distribute the gifts, saying as she did so, "Normally I don't dare to steal the limelight from the host. Besides, today is to celebrate Mr. Chu Sheng..."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Mrs. Wei interrupted with a smile, "When did you start calling me Mr. Chu Sheng?"

Everyone was holding the gifts and smiling.

Shi Anxia and Shi Anrou were also beside them, smiling as they opened their gifts and thanked the emperor. They both received brocade fans, with gold thread wrapped around the ivory frame and different patterns embroidered on both sides.

The weather is hot, and it is just right to hold a round fan and gently wave it, which is indescribably elegant and graceful.

After the gifts were distributed, Madam Gu sat down, took a sip of the tea handed to her by the maid, and said with a serious expression, "Do you know why these families in the capital are so eager to grow colorful flowers?"
