The little princess was torn, and the demon emperor patched her up

Chapter 92 A Dog's Shadow Gnawing at the Mountain
Xiao Baojing walked through the crowd and chased after the dragon chariot.

——I made a deal with Gu Zhenliang to overthrow the Southern Tang Dynasty for him and make him the emperor of Gu Song. So after eating a little these days, I drew a few formations in Yejing, intending to seize the throne for him when the time is right.

Shang Bingjiu's words came clearly to my ears.

The uneasiness in Xiao Baojing's heart quietly grew.

Could it be that……

Did the peddler really help Gu Zhenliang overthrow the country and seize the throne?

He actually has such great abilities!
"Yue Niang! Yue Niang!"

Xiao Baojing didn't recognize anyone, and Shang Bingjiu was nowhere to be found, so he simply called out Yue Niang's name.

Inside the dragon chariot, Yue Niang was startled and subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice. The moment she saw Xiao Baojing, she couldn't help but her pupils shrink slightly.

Xiao Baojing was soon brought into the palace.

The palace maids helped her wash and tidy up, and asked the imperial physician to treat her ears before sending her to Yue Niang's bedroom.

Yue Niang was wearing a phoenix crown inlaid with kingfisher feathers and a palace skirt with phoenix and peony. She was sitting on a rose chair holding a teacup, her eyes revealing anxiety and confusion.

Seeing Xiao Baojing coming over, Yue Niang quickly put down her teacup and asked with concern, "Are you the puppet that the peddler carried around in the ruined temple in Julu County?"

"Yes, my name is Xiao Baojing!" Xiao Baojing admitted straightforwardly, "Since you remember the past, do you know what is happening now? I experienced an explosion and saw countless meteors. When I woke up, Yejing was different!"

Yue Niang took her hand and motioned her to sit down, her beautiful face full of sorrow: "I don't know what happened. After the county governor's mansion was burned, my husband went to the Julu Mountains and came back saying that he was going to be the emperor. He wanted me to sell the tofu stall and follow him to the capital to ascend the throne. I just thought he was joking, but I couldn't get rid of him, so I had to pack up and follow him to the capital. Unexpectedly, he really became the emperor! I clearly remember that it is the 20th year of Kaiyuan in the Southern Tang Dynasty, but everyone says that it is the first year of the Gu Song Shenhua. The dignitaries who used to look down on us are scrambling to kowtow to my husband, saying that he is the emperor... This is simply ridiculous!"

Xiao Baojing bit his lip.

Gu Zhenliang went to the Julu Mountains...

I'm afraid it was at that time that he asked the peddler to help him seize the throne?

She remembered that the peddler had sacrificed a chaotic dark yellow flag last night and created some kind of formation, which turned the world into this horrible state.

Could it be that the flag could tear apart time and space?
When Xiao Nanjia disappeared, he seemed to say something to her, but her ears were damaged at that time, so she couldn't hear anything clearly...

As the two were talking, the palace maids came in and reported that the emperor had arrived.

Gu Zhenliang, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and an imperial crown with twelve tassels on his head, excitedly stepped into the bedroom.

He said, "Yue Niang, look what treasure I brought you!"

The young eunuchs behind him opened the brocade boxes they were holding.

The brocade box was covered with fine velvet, and displayed inside were a number of gold bracelets, some twisted, some carved, some round, and some inlaid with gems. They looked so golden and heavy at first glance, and it was unknown how much they were worth.

"Yue Niang!" Gu Zhenliang excitedly held Yue Niang's hand, "I said before that I must let you live a good life, live in a big house, wear silver bracelets, and have a group of servants like those wives of officials, and never have to do housework! Now, I will take you to live in the palace and give you a gold bracelet, so that you can be more noble and graceful than those wives of officials! Yue Niang, are you happy?"

The man's face was burning with excitement and pride in his eyes.

Yue Niang frowned slightly: "Husband, what is going on?"

Gu Zhenliang waved his hand carelessly: "Don't worry about it, just enjoy your wealth and splendor! By the way, I am the emperor now, and you, as my queen, can no longer call me husband as before. Yue Niang, you have to learn the rules, call yourself a concubine, and call me Your Majesty, do you understand?"

Xiao Baojing couldn't help but shout, "Gu Zhenliang!"

Gu Zhenliang was stunned.

He was very displeased to be called by his name. He turned around and saw that it was Xiao Baojing. He remembered that she had been with Shang Bingjiu, and his angry expression subsided a little.

He put his hands behind his back and looked stern as he reminded her, "You should call me His Majesty the Emperor."

Xiao Baojing rolled his eyes.

What emperor? Isn’t he just a tofu seller?
The peddler was such a stingy person, and he didn't know what valuable things the tofu seller gave him in exchange for the kingdom and the throne. She asked crisply, "Do you know where the peddler is?"

Gu Zhenliang replied, "He came to me last night and asked me to fulfill my original promise. I told him that the emperor's words are as good as gold, and my words are bound by law. If he wants the dragon vein, he can go and get it. Then he left."

Dragon vein?

Xiao Baojing grasped the key words.

In other words, Gu Zhenliang used the dragon vein to exchange for the country and the throne?
But what does the peddler need the dragon vein for?
She had only seen this thing in fantasy novels. It was invisible and intangible, and very illusory. How could he take it away?

Xiao Baojing couldn't figure it out.

Yue Niang asked with concern: "What are Miss Xiao's plans now? If you have nowhere to go, why not stay in the palace?"

"How can that be possible?" Gu Zhenliang was unhappy. "This is the imperial palace. Only people of noble blood can live here. This is not a place where just any cat or dog can stay!"

Xiao Baojing rolled his eyes at him, said goodbye to Yue Niang, and left the palace alone.

She was penniless and wandering alone on the street.

The country has been overturned and transformed. Yaoyao, Xiao Qian, Xiao Nanjia, Lu Yu'an, Chao Yuan, all the people she is familiar with are gone.

She had nowhere to go, so she wandered around Yejing City from morning to night, until night fell, when she sat down on a stone by the roadside.

She held her face in her hands and saw the warm orange light coming through the window opposite. The family was having a meal and laughing noisily.

The aroma of food wafted out of the window, and she couldn't help rubbing her belly.

She had lived without food before, eating simply for the taste.

But for some reason, I suddenly felt hungry.

Xiao Baojing held his stomach in dismay: "Where on earth have you been, peddler?"

No one answered her except the sound of the passing wind.

Xiao Baojing curled up on a rock and took a nap. He woke up hungry in the middle of the night.

Midday on the moon.

She rubbed her sleepy eyes and sat up. There was a curfew in Yejing City and everything was quiet and dark.

Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon on the night of the 16th was round and big, like a bright orange moon cake.

The night sky was cloudless, and the clear moonlight poured down across the sky, outlining the contours of the mountains in the horizon.

Xiao Baojing stared at the rolling mountains.

On the sapphire blue sky, a huge black dog shadow was gnawing at the mountain range.

It wasn't the sheep eating the grass, but the shadow of a dog gnawing at the mountain range...

Xiao Baojing rubbed his eyes in doubt.

Looking closely, the dog's shadow is still there!
Xiao Baojing slapped his thigh and jumped up.

She remembered that the national teacher Chao Yuan could transform into a dog shadow.

But what is he doing?!

Xiao Baojing's brain froze for a moment.
