Looking at the contents of the memorial, Qing Yixue looked somewhat worried.

Just then, he heard Junlin enter, so he frowned and looked up, wanting to scold this guy who had arrived without being announced.

When he looked up, he was stunned.

Because what appeared before her was none other than King's Landing, which had disappeared for several years.

For a moment, Qing Yixue thought she was hallucinating.

The female guard standing nearby was the first to react and quickly said, "Your Majesty, Lord Junlin has returned."

Qing Yixue snapped out of her daze, looked at Jun Lin standing in front of her, and excitedly picked up the memorial on the table and threw it at Jun Lin.

"So you finally decided to come back!"

Qing Yixue glared angrily at Junlin and the memorials scattered on the ground, none of which had touched Junlin.

This sudden turn of events left King's Landing somewhat bewildered.

What happened?

With doubts in his heart, Junlin looked at the female guard and asked, "Has Her Majesty the Empress gone through early menopause?"

Female guard: "..."

That's a great question; she simply couldn't answer it!

"You're the one going through menopause!"

Qing Yixue slammed her hand on the table in anger, but then she remembered something and quickly calmed herself down, reminding her, "Don't leave yet."

"I didn't leave."

Junlin looked at Qing Yixue, wondering if this girl was becoming a little neurotic due to overwork.

Being an emperor is indeed not an easy thing.

Qing Yixue rolled her eyes. Of course she knew Jun Lin hadn't left yet. What she was afraid of was that Jun Lin would suddenly run away, just like before.

Having learned from several previous mistakes, Qing Yixue decided to stop beating around the bush and said directly, "I'm going to make you Empress. What do you think?"

"ah?"

Junlin was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing special. Why are you rewarding yourself like this?"

"I!"

Qing Yixue was speechless for a moment, not because she was unable to refute him, but because she was somewhat stunned by Jun Lin's words.

What does it mean to reward yourself?

Qing Yixue's chest heaved, quite angry. After a moment, her mood turned somber, and she sighed, "Is it alright to just lend my name?"

Junlin frowned slightly. "What's wrong with you? Did you get bullied?"

If Qing Yixue wanted to force herself on him, that would be understandable, after all, his charm was so captivating that it was only natural for Qing Yixue to fall for him.

But just being a figurehead is meaningless, since you neither get his body nor his heart.

So, this was clearly because he had been bullied and needed to use his name as the executioner of nine generations of his family to intimidate those petty villains!

Qing Yixue said with some grievance, "You haven't come back for several years. Although they still care about your reputation and dare not commit treason again, they can use other things to pressure me."

Jun Lin raised an eyebrow. Although he already had a guess in mind, he still asked, "What is it?"

Qing Yixue: "Establish an empress."

Upon hearing these two words, Jun Lin thought to himself, "As expected. If it weren't for this reason, Qing Yixue wouldn't have regressed to only allowing him to be listed as a figurehead."

But this is no big deal at all!

Junlin immediately waved his hand and said, "I thought it was a big deal. I'll go to court tomorrow and help you solve it."

Qing Yixue was taken aback upon hearing this, "How do we solve this?"

You'll find out then.

After uttering these words, Jun Lin left the side hall.

Qing Yixue opened her mouth as she watched Jun Lin's departing figure, but ultimately did not speak to stop him.

She was simply curious about how Junlin would resolve this matter. Would he agree to become Empress?

That wouldn't be a bad idea...

Even though King's Landing already has a family, she can just take them in too.

After Junlin left the side hall, he hadn't gone far when he saw Eryan and Errou, as well as the Imperial Guards lying there, their fate unknown.

"alright?"

Er Yan crossed her arms. She had actually wanted to go in with Jun Lin to see the Azure Phoenix Empress, but Er Rou stopped her.

However, she still knew everything that happened inside the palace.

If the evaluation is that there's nothing to evaluate, then the Empress's life will just end like this.

Errou ran over and said with a grin, "Hehe, brother-in-law, look, we've defeated all the guys who wanted to catch you!"

"Rou Rou is so great." Jun Lin smiled and patted Er Rou's little head, then looked at Er Yan and cried, "Wow, wife, you don't know, that Empress actually wants me to be her wife, how wicked people are!"

Hearing this, Er Yan nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, that empress was the same last time. My brother-in-law asked her to order me to be betrothed to him, but she refused. She's definitely not a good emperor."

"Um?"

Er Yan hadn't thought anything of it at first, but after hearing Er Rou's words, his sharp gaze immediately turned to Jun Lin.

"Harmful!"

Junlin laughed heartily, "The child is just kidding, he's just joking."

Errou: (=^▽^=)

Suddenly, a pillar of fire seemed to shoot into the sky from within the palace!

That day.

The entire Azure Phoenix Holy City seemed to have become a bit hotter.

...

The next day, the Qingluan Empire came to court early.

Empress Qing Yixue sat on the throne, looking down at the officials below.

Junlin casually pulled up a chair and sat down next to Qing Yixue.

This scene stunned the crowd below and made Qing Yixue extremely nervous. Was Junlin really going to announce that he would become the Empress in public?

Qing Yixue didn't care about Junlin's overstepping of boundaries.

Because she knew very well that she was able to live to this day and hold onto this position because of King's Landing.
