Chapter 158


"Brother Han Ye, I've been on the road all day, and my clothes are all messy. Don't I need to change into a fresh set of clothes?" Lin Zaozao pulled at her somewhat sloppy clothes after hurrying down the road.

"Zhuzhu, becoming the female emperor of Han Country depends on strategy and courage, not on dressing up. Come with me and walk step by step to the supreme position above, accept the respect of the people of Han Country, and then become a qualified female emperor."

Facing Han Ye's sincere gaze, Lin Zaozao could not care about the clothes on her body at this time.

What Han Ye said was right. As a qualified female emperor, what she relied on was never how luxurious her own clothes were.

So Lin Zaozao held Han Ye's hand, under the lead of Uncle Zhang and Dashan, and walked step by step towards the stairs.

Zhao Cai and Jin Bao, like two loyal guards, followed closely behind Lin Zaozao.

While Ji Fantian, Xiao Taohua and Xiao Liuli and others stood quietly with the people of Han Country under the altar, watching Lin Zaozao walk step by step towards her throne.

As Lin Zaozao walked up the endless stairs, her heart grew heavier with each step.

It was as if not long ago, she had walked up and down the stairs countless times. There was solemnity during the sacrifice, and solemnity when the court convened, and more often, helplessness.

Until Lin Zaozao held Han Ye's hand and walked to the top step, what she saw in her eyes was a ground full of corpses.

Looking at the ground full of corpses, some of which she seemed to recognize, some she didn't. But the look in their eyes as they died towards her was both expectant and helpless.

The blood on those corpses gathered into a small river, slowly flowing down the stairs.

And the bloody scene made Lin Zaozao's eyes go dark, and her head began to throb.

Han Ye, who was standing next to Lin Zaozao, saw her abnormality, his eyes flashed darkly, and he quickly grabbed the staggering Lin Zaozao.

Zhuzhu, although I am reluctant for you to get hurt, we have already taken the last step to the supreme position. What remains must be walked by you personally.

Otherwise, what awaits you will be another disaster.

The fortunes of Canglan Country and Fengshuo Country can no longer deteriorate.

Once the female emperors of Canglan Country and Fengshuo Country become desperate, causing the people to live in misery, the resentment everywhere will directly affect your life.

"Zhuzhu, are you alright!"

Hearing Han Ye's concerned voice, the blood mist and corpses in front of Lin Zaozao's eyes disappeared instantly.

She looked back in shock at the concern in Han Ye's eyes. She wanted to tell him everything she had just seen, but when she opened her mouth, she didn't know where to start.

Swallowing back the words that were about to come out of her mouth, Lin Zaozao glanced at Uncle Zhang and Dashan, then turned her head to look at Ji Fantian, Xiao Taohua and countless people of Han Country standing under the stairs.

She also knew that this was not the time for her to answer Han Ye's questions.

What she should do now is to complete her enthronement as the female emperor of Han Country with Han Ye.

What she had just seen should have been her illusion! Such a majestic sacrificial altar could not possibly have corpses and blood.

"Brother Han Ye, I'm fine, let's continue with the ceremony!"

"Alright!"

Hearing that Lin Zaozao was fine, when Han Ye turned his head again, there was only endless gloom in his eyes.

After waiting for two lifetimes, he finally brought Zaozao back to where she belonged.

In this life, he must let Zhuzhu sit in that most noble position. Only when she becomes the female emperor of Han Country, will no one force her to do what she doesn't want to do.

The Zhuzhu of this life must be free.

She will no longer be trapped in that small place, fulfilling her responsibilities day after day.

Even though those responsibilities did not belong to her at all.

"Zhuzhu, accept everything that is happening now in good grace. You are now the empress of Han Country. From this moment on, you will have supreme power. At the same time, you are free, not constrained by anyone," Han Ye said, his eyes flashing golden light in the cold night.

After staring blankly for a moment, she nodded her head absentmindedly.

"Yes, I am the empress of Han Country, and I am free."

"You're right, Zhuzhu. You are the empress of Han Country, having all this, you will always be free," Han Ye said.

As soon as Han Ye finished speaking, Lin Zaozao's eyes suddenly regained clarity.

She looked around awkwardly, and furtively pulled at Han Ye's sleeve, speaking somewhat awkwardly, "Brother Han Ye, I was too nervous just now. My coronation ceremony has somehow ended up here like this?"

"Yes, Zhuzhu, your coronation ceremony is over. From now on, you are the empress of Han Country, Your Majesty Ming Zhu," Han Ye said gently.

Hearing Han Ye’s gentle voice, Lin Zaozao couldn't help blushing as she turned her head to look at him with an embarrassed expression.

This was her coronation ceremony! How could she have zoned out!

Now her coronation ceremony was over. She only remembered part of it.

As for what she had forgotten, Lin Zaozao frowned, trying to remember, but could not recall anything.

Looking at Han Ye's gentle face like beautiful jade, Lin Zaozao scratched her fingers in embarrassment.

Her Han Ye brother had traded his life for hers.

And now!

Just now, in order for her to live safely for the rest of her life, he had made an oath to the heavens along with the twenty-eight people in the Sacrificial Hall, sacrificing their lives.

With such deep affection, how could she repay him?

Or rather, what did she have to repay him with?

But she! She had zoned out at this time!

Thinking it over carefully, Lin Zaozao felt that she was really worthless. When else could she not have zoned out? How could she have zoned out at such an important time!

Seeing Lin Zaozao's regretful appearance, Han Ye quickly hidden the dark light in his eyes. They would carry the memories of their past lives.

His Zhuzhu should completely forget the memories of her past life.

The present Zhuzhu was called Lin Zaozao.

Lin Zaozao and Ming Zhu from the past life were two completely different individuals.

Hiding the dark light in his eyes, Han Ye's eyes became gentle as water again. He looked at Lin Zaozao and said gently, "Zhuzhu, from now on, you are the empress of Han Country. You must do your best to keep the people of Han Country safe. Can you do it?"

"Brother Han Ye, I will try my best to do it," Lin Zaozao answered earnestly.

When the sacrificial ceremony ended, Lin Zaozao was still in a daze.

She didn't feel anything yet! She had somehow inexplicably become the empress of Han Country.

Her ascension to become the empress of Han Country was astonishingly swift. And the speed at which she accepted her new identity was frighteningly calm.

There was no grand coronation ceremony, nor complicated procedures, only the simple sacrificial offering in Han Ye’s Sacrificial Hall.

Or rather, it was the most extraordinary sacrificial offering!

But what happened before and after the sacrificial offering, why didn't she have a single memory of it?

She really was a pig! Such an important event, and she had forgotten it!

She really was beyond redemption!
