Some of Xia Ling's news came from Hai Hai, while others came from the bookstores outside.
She controlled hundreds of bookstores in the capital, and Xia Ling was the driving force behind the liveliness of the LIBRETTO.
In this day and age, people still didn't realize the importance of controlling public opinion, but Xia Ling couldn't help but help Ji Xingchen to build momentum for him if he wanted to let Xiao Yao go.
Under her control, the Libretto often wrote about the harmony between the two countries, using virtue to convince people, and it was best to wait for success and wealth.
Xia Ling could easily name eight or ten of these chicken soup for the soul.
If she gave chicken soup for the soul to the people below, people would take their places and put the JI and Xiao countries in it.
The Emperor of the JI country was wise, and Xiao Yao was humble and sincere. The JI country was so good to him. As long as he signed the national contract, the Xiao Country would definitely be the JI country's territory in the future... ...
When the ordinary people read the storybook, no one led them to think about the state affairs of the JI and Xiao countries. If Xiao Yao wanted to go back, he would definitely do something about it.
Ji Xingchen took the opportunity to dig out a list of officials who were in contact with Xiao Yao.
To be able to expand the country's territory without much effort, which emperor would not be tempted?
Moreover, Xiao Yao had endured for so many years, and the emperor of the JI kingdom was also very assured of him. He believed that Xiao Yao would not be able to stir up any trouble.
After half a month of tormenting, Xiao Yao sent a letter back to the Xiao Kingdom, and it was approved by the emperor of the JI kingdom.
Xiao Yao could not wait to leave, and he was released with Xiao Tianai as the son-in-law of the JI kingdom.
On the day he left, Xia Ling was still with Ji Xingchen, standing at the city gate to send Xiao Tianai off.
Xiao Tianai had already put on his veil again, and he looked even colder. His body seemed to be covered by a layer of ice that no one else could get close to.
It seemed that his relationship with Xiao Yao was not going well?
Xia Ling guessed in her heart.
Xiao Yao was smiling in front of them. When he turned around, he could not smile at all.
Xia Ling saw Xiao Yao's dark face in the picture that was projected by Hai Hai, and she could not help but feel relieved. Thinking about how Xiao Yao had been in the JI kingdom for so many years, and how he had been destroyed by Ji Xingchen in half a year, she felt pity for Xiao Yao.
Ji Xingchen took ten steps forward with every step he took. It was really scary to make an enemy out of him.
If she guessed correctly, Ji Xingchen must have made arrangements in the Xiao Kingdom as well. He would not allow Xiao Yao to ascend to the Xiao Kingdom's throne so easily.

With a powerful and black-bellied husband who had taken on all the responsibility on his own, Xia Ling's days were still carefree even though she was born in a royal residence filled with flowers and oil.
What was there to be afraid of Even if the sky fell, King Ji and Ji Xingchen would carry it.
Ji Xingchen still went back and forth to the government office on a daily basis.
He went back and forth between the six tribes and was transferred by the emperor. The entire imperial court was purged once again.
*
When the first snowfall of winter fell.
News came from the border.
Xiao Yao had ascended the throne and had broken the alliance agreement.
Ji Xingchen and Xia Ling were almost the first batch of people to know about this news.
Holding Xia Ling's hand, Ji Xingchen stood on the long corridor by the lake. He stroked Xia Ling's hair by her temples and lowered his eyes to look at her eight months pregnant belly.
"I originally wanted to accompany you until our child came into this world. But the situation has changed. I'm afraid I can't do it now, " Ji Xingchen said softly.

Even he could not accurately calculate everything in this world.
According to the information he received from his spies, Xiao Yao had done many things when he returned to the Xiao Kingdom. The earliest he could ascend to the throne was after the New Year.
However, no one had expected that the old emperor of the Xiao Kingdom would be in critical condition. Xiao Yao took the opportunity to enter the Eastern Palace and take control of the political power.
After Xiao Yao ascended to the throne, the first thing he did was to hire the most famous thief in the world to help him steal the document of alliance that he had left in the Imperial Palace of the JI kingdom.
