Guo Feng understood that the Empress did all this not just for him, Guo Feng.

Instead, it was a warning to others, a test of the three imperial brothers-in-law, a way to build a new team, and to eliminate the chief steward's faction, a major threat.

This is killing four birds with one stone.

The Empress's thoughts and methods have indeed far exceeded Guo Feng's understanding.

However, the most crucial thing is the immense power that the Empress unleashed this time!

She has mastered a tenth-grade phantom spirit!

There's also a suspected 10th-grade expert behind him!

All of this serves as a warning to the Third Prince's brother-in-law: the next chicken might be him!

Guo Feng added, "However, the silence of the Third Imperial Uncle this time is not necessarily out of fear, but rather a possible fierce counterattack."

"That doesn't mean I'm the first one to be affected."

The Empress chuckled softly.

Guo Feng's lips twitched: "What if I can't beat him?"

"Don't worry."

The Empress waved her hand, "You are a third-class duke, a king with the title of one-word, and the Grand General of the Wind Cavalry. As long as you don't give him a chance, he won't dare to kill you casually."

She paused for a moment, a playful look on her face, "Of course, if he kills you without cause, I will avenge you."

"I see."

Guo Feng couldn't help but smile. This empress was indeed deliberately giving Guo Feng power and status, and using him as a shield!

It's a scheme that will only bring disaster upon ourselves!

However, as an empress, her actions were entirely reasonable.

Even Guo Feng himself couldn't find fault with it!

After all, he got the power and the status!

He's on his way to immense wealth and fortune!

This can be considered an open transaction for the Empress.

As the Empress spoke, her eyes sharpened, and she asked, "Guo Feng, I've given you so much. If the Yan Yang Empire and Yi Zui... no, the Hua Guo Continent, go to war in the future, whose side will you take?"

This question of hers.

Guo Feng instantly felt immense pressure coming down on him.

It seemed as if a slight misstep could lead to disaster.
