Pushed to the back seat

  A louder and louder cry came from the "Phoenix Temple" of the queen, "Your Majesty——".

  Longshu Yang, the 28th Emperor of the Huanglin Dynasty, was the most romantic emperor in the history of the Huanglin Dynasty. He had only two concubines and two sons throughout his life. He ascended to the throne at the age of 15 and reigned for 30 years. He was also the emperor who loved his people the most and was the most supported by the common people. When he passed away, all the citizens in the city spontaneously wore mourning clothes for a month, and the whole city held a three-day funeral ceremony. The citizens set up an altar for the emperor at home to comfort this good emperor who worked hard for the country and the people.

  After the three-day funeral, the new emperor ascended to the throne, and the national title 'Lingxue' was taken from one of the names of the new emperor and empress. The new emperor had been on the throne for a month when, under pressure from the two palace dowagers, four assistant ministers, all the citizens of the capital city, and the border town warriors, he proclaimed the new empress. According to the will of the previous emperor, she was named 'Lanmeng Duanxian Huanghou'. Moreover, before his death, the previous emperor had decreed that the new empress should accompany the emperor to court sessions, listen to major and minor matters, and have the power to make decisions on all matters in the court. In other words, no matter could be carried out without the consent of the new empress. The previous emperor may not have known that making such arrangements would make Feixue's life in the palace even more difficult, which was probably the direct reason why she and the new emperor could not love each other.

  After the death of the previous emperor, Fei Xue asked the two empress dowagers for permission to go to the imperial mausoleum to mourn the late emperor for a month as Princess Lan Meng. The two empress dowagers agreed. Fei Xue stayed in the imperial mausoleum for a whole month, during which she thought a lot and realized that she must recover her memories as the Goddess of Snow, otherwise she could only watch as the people around her who cared about her were arranged by fate one by one. She wanted to change her fate. In the imperial mausoleum, only Jian Jian, Dong Dong, Xiao Dezi, and You Hu accompanied her. On the first night in the imperial mausoleum, the spirit of the late emperor appeared in Fei Xue's dream and told her that he was actually one of the four great heavenly gods, the Dragon King. He had cut off his divine source to persuade the Fire God and chosen to sleep in the earth, but now felt that Fei Xue was in trouble and woke up to help her. The Dragon King also told Fei Xue that the Water God was also in the mortal world and believed they would meet; he asked Fei Xue not to be sad because he had not left her and would always be by her side. He hoped that Fei Xue would find herself soon and then go find the four great divine beasts, which might lead her to find her parents.

  The next day, after waking up from the flying snow, she decided to report the emperor's kindness to her. Ten thousand years ago, he chose to sleep in order to save his father, and even gave up his own divine beast for her. Now, he is taking care of her again. The dragon king's kindness to her family cannot be repaid no matter what. Since she has not regained her original memories, she can only rely on her current strength to help him fulfill his wish as a human, which is to become a good empress.

  In the month at Huang Ling, outside also took place earth-shaking changes, after the eldest prince ascended to the throne he was busy getting familiar with state affairs; the second prince was appointed as the King of Qing Yue and stayed in the court to serve; originally the King of Qing Yue had requested to go to the border to be a general, but the two empress dowagers said they would have to wait until the new emperor and his two princes all got married before he could go, having no choice he could only stay behind; now that a month has passed, under the urging of the two empress dowagers, the four assisting ministers, the entire city's citizens, as well as the border city's warriors, the new emperor ascended to the throne.

  Fei Xue insisted on getting married from the Shu Wang Fu, so after she came out of the imperial mausoleum, she directly moved into the Wang Fu. She hoped to have her parents by her side on her wedding day, just like the daughter of the Wang Ye and Wang Fei. The next day, which is today, Fei Xue wore the phoenix dress worn by the empresses of the imperial court throughout history, a red dress embroidered with phoenixes, and a red cloak with peonies outside. She also wore a crown on her head symbolizing her position as empress. Her face was not covered with a red veil. Fei Xue left the Shu Wang Fu, accompanied by both Shu Wang Ye and Shu Wang Fei. Today, all the streets in the capital were filled with white, blue, and red flowers, and from the Shu Wang Fu to the palace gate, there was a red carpet laid out. All of this was done spontaneously by the people and soldiers of the capital for Fei Xue. They meant to show that Princess Fei Xue would be a good empress, and also to tell the emperor that the new empress was supported by the people.

  Fei Xue, dressed in phoenix attire, walked towards the imperial palace with Shu Wang Ye and Shu Wang Fei. At that time, all the citizens surrounded them on both sides, shouting "Long live the Empress, may she live for a thousand years!" Of course, our beautiful Fei Xue did not disappoint the citizens, as her stunning beauty made it clear to everyone that their new empress was indeed a heavenly goddess, thus fulfilling the prophecy "The world is filled with snow, the emperor's arrival brings good fortune, a rare and extraordinary girl descends from heaven, bringing blessings to the people." The cheers of the crowd grew even more fervent. Meanwhile, the three high-ranking officials - the Minister, the General, and the Chancellor - had been waiting at their own doorsteps since early morning. When Shu Wang Ye brought Fei Xue past their homes, they immediately followed behind them. Fei Xue's wedding procession did not descend into chaos because the citizens voluntarily acted as her bodyguards. Upon arriving at the palace gates, all the soldiers were waiting, kneeling on the ground and shouting "Long live the Empress, may she live for a thousand years!" They then took over from the citizens, standing in two rows, watching as Fei Xue entered the "Dragon Ritual Hall".

  In the temple gate, both Empress Dowagers were already waiting there early, seeing Book Wang Ye and his wife bringing Fei Xue over; they stepped forward to take over their work, with one on each side supporting Fei Xue as she walked step by step in front of Long Yue.
