Double happiness

Pei Jin gripped her hand back assuring that he is and will always be there to protect her and lover her. He knew that some people from the royal branch and nobles may take this as a opportunity to eye the power and resources of the valley.

But today he had given clear warning to those all by saying "even me a crown prince and future emperor accepts and respect her authority..is willing to do so in future.. thus you all shall too bow your head before her like always"

All the nobles and the royals from branch families knew this but what could they do beside being on agreeing side. Some may had that thought and some didn't. Would they dare to act as elders and impose on her?? No.. they clearly knew she could have their heads rolling the very second.

Now from crown prince's speech it seemed that even before her this demonic prince of theirs would have their heads rolling. With two of the most well known and powerful people joined in union they felt scared to their bones but also had anticipation for the prosperous future.

With so many heads gone and titled snatched there was not a single person left who had the guts to say otherwise to their crown prince. Even the royal couples were in full support how could they could they object. Thus all of them knelt and have their salutes and congratulations very obediently making Pei Jin very pleased.

Yusheng though calm on surface her heart was beating loudly from Pei jins show of love and pampering thus with her equally powerful voice she speaks to the crowd.

"This lord of the valley is also born of Nanling.. friend of emperor and now a crown princess. In every time of needs and crisis this lord will always be there to hold the sky along with crown prince for Nanling and you.

Fear not, Live to fullest for this lord is right behind you all along with crown prince. This lord has very short temper but also a person who firmly believes repay good with good.

As long as you all are loyal and upright no harm shall befall you. In this lords eyes commoners or royals all are the same and will always be so"

The entire crowd cheered once again they even made it grand by kneeling and knowtowing her wisher her a long, safe and happy life. They knew she was placing all the commoners under her wings, giving her protection from the unfairness of this harsh heirarchical society.

It was the first time for all the commoners to be supported and protected by such a high above person. They felt as if a jar of honey had turned and spilled in their hearts. With tears in their eyes and loud cheer they showed their happiness and acceptance of their new crown princess and the future empress.

Their cheer and happiness so high all the nobles and royals felt shock and awed. They were now sure to their very bones that they could and should not offend Yusheng or this crowd of commoners will swallow them not even leaving their bones.

It was an unwritten rule in the end it depends whether the people support the one in throne. Many dynasties were destroyed for having unhappy people in their reigns. And Yusheng has cleanly managed to grab them in her palms.

Currently in the entire Nanling she is definetly the most powerful person. Even if she were to walk side ways none would dare to point it out.

Finally the emperor ordered for the ceremony to begin. Soon all the people were betting on the boat that they thought will win. Beside the empress, Yusheng, princess and some royal matrons all the ladies were in another building.

The betting was just for fun this after all the royals and nobles placing their bet. The signal to start the race had begun. The crowd also had their own betting going on. Soon the cheers were loud encouraging the participant's of their choices.
