I’ll Be the Male Leads Sister-in-Law

Chapter 530

Mu Mingtang had not been in intimate contact with him for a long time, so his breath made her whole body itch, “Don’t play around.”

As Xie Xuanchen said that, he picked up Mu Mingtang and strode towards the bed, “I haven’t started being playful yet.”

Xie Xuanchen lived a stable life that winter since everything around him was peaceful. All livelihoods in Youzhou were gradually getting on track. After a winter of training, the army finally looked good enough as proper troops.

He was comfortable and happy here, but other areas were experiencing violent turmoil. Due to serious illness, the Emperor had contracted a spring cold around the beginning of spring and died after only a few days. Xie Xuanji finally stood out among the remaining Princes and ascended the throne as Emperor. With that, he made Jiang Mingwei his Empress whereas Wan Yanduo and Princess Tayan were his Noble Consorts.

It might be that Xie Xuanji intended to dispel bad luck and chose the reigning name of Qingping(1).

(T/N: Qing means cleanse/clean and ping was either peace/stable)

After Xie Xuanji ascended the throne, he geared up to deal with his ‘rebellious’ cousin intended to conquer Xie Xuanchen in April. With that, Xie Xuanchen finally found an opportunity and led his troops to fight.

In this battle, Xie Xuanchen fought directly towards the Yellow River and approached the capital in an instant. When Beirong realised what was going on, they felt that they had a chance for revenge, so they snuck close to the border, hoping to take the opportunity to snatch the Sixteen Prefectures back. The Xu family of generals then arrayed themselves in the north and quickly stopped the enemies. After Xie Xuanchen heard the news, he put the capital aside, which was within easy reach, and returned directly to the border to deal with the Beirong people.

When Beirong heard that Xie Xuanchen had returned, they were so frightened that they immediately withdrew their troops. On the other hand, the capital was not exactly in a calm state either. Throughout the past two years, the capital’s feng shui had been bad, so the people were frequently worried. Xie Xuanji was frightened by the repeated sieges, which was why he wanted to take advantage of Xie Xuanchen’s returning to the north and order for the capital to be moved to Lin An.

When Jiang Mingwei followed the boat south, her heart was in a very complicated mood. It was clear that the capital was not taken by force in this life, but in the end, it still became Lin An.

The plot of the original book had obviously changed entirely, but sometimes, the trajectory of history was still similar and terrifying to her.

Neither Xie Xuanchen nor Xie Xuanji was willing to change their country’s title since both felt that the other was a traitor. Later, Xie Xuanjin moved southwards and the people simply distinguished the two regimes as North Ye and South Ye Dynasties.

A year later, a coup also occurred in Beirong. Ye Luyan successfully broke out of the siege and ascended the throne as Emperor, making Xiao Siyi his Empress. At this time, the two pairs of ruling monarchs, one in the south and the other in the north, were all acquaintances of Xie Xuanchen and Mu Mingtang. Xie Xuanchen’s subordinates persuaded him to also proclaim himself Emperor, but he shook his head and still insisted, “There is no rush.”
