I'll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

Chapter 522

“It doesn’t matter to me,” Xie Xuanchen sighed very softly, “You are not her. You are willing to follow me now just because I am King Qiyang and hold great power. You can’t even fathom how important she is to me, so it doesn’t matter what you look like. Except for her, in my eyes, all women in the world are merely other people.”

Xie Xuanchen said these words not only to the lead dancer, but also to the officers and soldiers around him. There were many people who had the same idea as Xu Qilang, so Xie Xuanchen simply announced it once and for all in front of everyone. Those who didn’t know of his point of view were not at fault the first time, but if anyone were to try and bring it up again, he was not going to be lenient towards them.

Mu Mingtang was already at odds with him. If he was put in the same category with these people again, Mu Mingtang would completely ignore him for life. By then, who was going to stay with Xie Xuanchen?

Sure enough, after Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, the people around him knew that it was not a joke as soon as they heard his tone and they all dispersed. After that event, there was another celebration party and sure enough, no one offered him any more women.

Xie Xuanchen’s battle lasted until July. He led his men to capture the last city, Yunzhou City.

At this point, all the Sixteen Prefectures of Youyun fell into the hands of the Ye Dynasty.

To be precise, it landed all in the hands of Xie Xuanchen.

Xie Xuanchen set up his own plans and promises openly. After all this time, the imperial court only wrote edicts to tell him off, but not once was an army sent to conquer him. The reason was because on the one hand, no one dared to attack Xie Xuanchen and on the other hand, the imperial court barely had any time to take care of their internal matters.

The Emperor had not been in good health since last year. This year, he was first shocked by Ye Luyan’s siege. Later, Xie Xuanchen became independent and publicly accused the Emperor of improper succession by raising the issue concerning Xie Yi. As the Emperor’s emotions were greatly stimulated, his health declined precipitously since May. The several Princes left in the capital were busy competing for the position to become the heir apparent and had no time to take care of Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen calmly finished conquering the Sixteenth Prefectures of Youyun and returned home with a full load.

Now that Xie Xuanchen was an independent force, many people have come to seek refuge with him, including many literati and counsellors. Since the war was over, the establishment of a government and a country should also be placed on the agenda.

A counsellor mentioned the matter of setting the capital’s issues to Xie Xuanchen. After hearing this, Xie Xuanchen thought about it and said, “Youzhou is a good choice. However, I have to go back to the Zhending Mansion first.”

The counsellor was puzzled when he heard this, “Your Highness, now the Princes in the capital are fighting for the throne whereas Empress Dowager Xiao and Ye Luyan of Beirong are fighting among themselves, so they can’t take any action to suppress us. This is a great opportunity for us to gain a foothold. This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, Your Highness, so it’s time to take advantage of the momentum to win over people’s hearts. We can send a group of reliable soldiers to care for Her Highness and protect her adequately. Her Highness is a reasonable person; she will understand.”
