“Really?”

Ming Shu asked as though she really believed him. Junjue was stunned for a moment but he remembered that he had dignity too and nodded his head heavily. “Yes. If you want to summon Meng Liang as your concubine, you will have to kill me. I will not share you with anyone.”

If she dares to kill ne, I will strangle her.

Ming Shu smiled. “Since you say so, I will satisfy you.”

Junjue: “...”

Junjue kept a straight face and sat up straight.

She asked Lianxin to get her writing materials and started writing the imperial decree.

He didn’t see what she wrote. Lianxin took the imperial decree and left. After a while, he heard General Meng stammering his thanks.

Is he excited?

“Your Majesty, there is still one more!” Junjue reminded Ming Shu.

“The only position above the royal concubine is the emperor. Do you want to sit on the throne?” Ming Shu glanced at him.

Junjue frowned and pretended as he said, “I say that if you want to summon General Meng Liang in, you will have to kill me.”

Ming Shu raised her hand and wrote another imperial decree. There were not many words written on it and she seemed to be playing with it.

She stamped her royal stamp on it and threw it at Junjue.

Junjue took the imperial decree. He didn’t know what to feel about it. He opened it numbly. She didn’t like him anyway...

There were only a few words written on the imperial decree:

Get back to your Xianyu Palace.

Junjue: “...”

What is this?

Junjue wanted to flare up, but he saw Lianxin signaling at him. He controlled his anger and didn’t violate his character profile. He took the imperial decree and left angrily.

“That little demon’s temper is bigger than mine,” Ming Shu muttered. She lowered her head and continued settling her booklets.

Lianxin followed Junjue out. She walked with Junjue for a distance. “Your Highness, Her Majesty didn’t summon General Meng Liang into the palace. Please do not worry.”

“What was written on that imperial decree?”

Lianxin thought that everyone would know about this by tomorrow so she didn’t hide and just said, “It was to bestow a wedding on General Meng Liang.”

Junjue’s mood got better suddenly. However, he soon realized that something was wrong and went back to Yangxin Hall.

“Why are you back?”

Junjue asked the rest of the people to leave and closed the door of Yangxin Hall. He said, “Don’t you want the military power that is in the Meng family’s hand?”

“From what you say, I should let Meng Liang enter the palace?”

Junjue felt stifled. “I don’t mean that.”

“What do you mean then?”

“General Meng only has one son and that is Meng Liang. Meng Liang is a crucial person. You shouldn’t bestow a marriage on him so quickly... Haven’t you learned about the balancing of powers?”

Ming Shu smiled and shook her head. “No.”

Junjue: “...”

“I am not afraid that they will rebel. Hence, military power is not important to me.” Ming Shu’s tone was casual. “If they rebel, that would be best.”

That way, I will have a reason to beat them.

Junjue said in a surprised tone, “Are you going to ruin the Tian Xia that your mother fought for?”

What the f**k. Is she stupid?

When she talked to Ning Furong that time, he thought that she was just angering her. Now that he thought about it, she was speaking the truth. She was really anticipating their rebellion.

Is there any emperor that looks forward to a revote by his own people?

No!

And he had to woo such an idiot!

He must be an idiot too!

No no no... I am very smart. The crazy person is the idiot.

Ming Shu suddenly reached out and pulled Junjue over. She looked up at him. “My lovely concubine, have you forgotten that your nation was the one that collapsed. If a revolt happens in this nation, you should be happy.”

“I will not be happy.” Junjue bore the urge to shake her furiously. “Afterglow is gone. The world now is great the way it is. I don’t want the civilians to be harmed again because of war.”

I am such a righteous person.

“Also...” Junjue hesitated. He cautiously approached Ming Shu. “I like you. I wish for you to remain safe.”

“Do you like me so much that you can forget about our blood feud?”

Junjue nodded.

That was not his feud anyway. Also, the one that destroyed Afterglow was not her. It was her mother.

“Then you...” Ming Shu paused and then smiled brightly. “Seems like I have great charisma.”

Ha!

Great your head!

I am enduring you because of the mission!

If I were a normal person, I would stab you. That is already a very small reaction.

No, weren’t they talking about Meng Liang?

“Your Majesty, Meng Liang...”

“It is time for lunch now. Let’s go, I will eat with you today.” Ming Shu got up and held Junjue’s hand as they walked out.

Junjue: “...”

Junjue wanted to talk about Meng Liang’s case with Ming Shu, but he was always dodged by her.

After they finished eating, Ming Shu smiled and asked him gently, “My lovely concubine, what do you like?”

Junjue felt goosebumps all over his body. Why does it feel so fake? Can you speak properly? Who are you acting for!

He bore with the goosebumps and got into the mood immediately. “I like you.”

“Besides that.”

Junjue shook his head.

Ming Shu continued asking him. “What do you want to do, then?”

Kill Ning Furong and make you like me.

Can I say this?

No!

Junjue shook his head.

“Nevermind. You can slowly think about it. When you arrive at an answer, you can tell me and I will accept whatever request you make.”

WTF!

What is this crazy person trying to do!

Why do I feel a bit scared!

Why would she treat me so well suddenly? There must be something going on!

Junjue looked at Ming Shu. “Anything?”

“Yes.”

“Can you like me then?”

“Change it.”

“Didn’t you say that you will agree to anything?” What the f**k, you liar!

“Besides that.”

Junjue thought for a while. “Then can you... stay for the night?”

Ming Shu opened her mouth and before she could reject him, he interrupted her. “You don’t have to do anything. You can just sleep here.”

Once she’s in bed, she will not be able to control anything.

How did that saying go? Right! If you get her body, you are not far away from her heart. Hahahaha!

[Lord Nine, are you not afraid of losing your body?] the system asked weakly.

I am! I am very scared!

[Then what are you so happy about?]

I am happy... Who knew what he was happy about. Maybe it was because he was closer to completing his mission so that was why he was so happy. Why? Can’t I be happy?

[...] Dead. This is a sin!

Ming Shu thought about her mission to be a foolish empress and agreed to stay.

Lianxin was shocked. Although Her Majesty treated the royal concubine really well and gave him the best of everything, she didn’t tell the royal concubine about it and didn’t go to Xianyu Palace often.

Why did she choose to stay here today...

The reason why everything was still so peaceful now was because Her Majesty didn’t stay overnight at Xianyu Palace and didn’t sleep with the royal concubine.

If the officials know about this, I wonder what they will think.

Since the royal concubine was going to sleep with her Majesty, Lianxin quickly called the old men in the palace and they had a private lesson with Junjue. After that, they started preparing everything hurriedly.
