Chapter 186 Agree

"And I don't want to be trapped in the capital forever. I want to travel all over the country and see all the mountains, rivers, lakes and seas." Ling Qingyan glanced at Ling Zhuoan.

What she said was indeed a bit unkind.

After all, Ling Zhuoan will become the emperor of Ling Kingdom sooner or later.

He couldn't travel as freely as she did.

"What a cruel heart." Ling Zhuo'an sighed, leaning back on the couch, his eyes fixed on the girl in front of him, "My royal sister has already decided to leave my royal brother alone in the capital."

"No wonder, no wonder the imperial sister disdains this coveted position." Ling Zhuo'an looked dejected, "It turns out she had been planning to elope with someone else for a long time."

"No wonder you're unwilling to even give me a title." Ling Zhuo'an raised his voice slightly, "So you've been wanting to get rid of me for a long time."

Although Ling Zhuoan said it jokingly, only he himself knew how nervous he was.

He was really afraid that the imperial sister really thought so.

"No!" The girl answered without hesitation, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on Ling Zhuoan's lips.

"Huh? Why not?"

"I just don't have any other options." The little girl seemed to have really not been able to think of any way to have the best of both worlds.

"Then if my Royal Brother could come up with a method that would not restrict me, would not require me to be so tired, would allow me to go wherever I want, and would also give me a legitimate status, would I be willing to accept it?"

Outside the door, from time to time, there were sounds of people making intentional or deliberate noises.

"Hey, it's time to feed the rabbits raised by the princess." Mu Xianzhi looked at Cui Huailang and said.

"It seems that the Liyuan Opera has a new play today. Do you think Your Highness would like to watch it?" Ji Yanxing also said to Cui Huailang.

"I heard that my sister has handed over all her property to you to manage, and you won't need it anymore. I am your husband, so naturally I will be fully responsible for your housework. After all, Brother Cui has no status." Pei Wuyou smiled very gently.

Several people were talking to Cui Huailang, and the volume was so loud that people inside the big door could hear it clearly.

Cui Huailang looked at the blue sky, dug his ears, and smiled helplessly and bitterly: "Everyone, I can hear you, upright young man, your ears are still intact."

Obviously, no one paid any attention to Cui Huailang.

Everyone treats him as a tool.

No one really wanted him to talk back.

Except Pei Wuyou.

He really wanted to take over the business that Sister Qingxi had trusted him to manage.

Can he figure it out?!

It is obvious that only he can maximize the benefits. He is a business genius and his mind is full of advanced ideas.

This jealous husband!

Ling Qingyan and Ling Zhuoan heard the noisy sounds outside the door.

"The imperial sister hasn't answered me yet." Ling Zhuoan brought Ling Qingyan back to her senses.

"Brother, tell me more about the best of both worlds solution you mentioned."

"I say," Ling Zhuo'an looked at the girl, "in the future, you and I will govern the country together. You will be the Empress, and I will help you manage government affairs." Ling Zhuo'an smiled and continued, "I will take care of the Imperial Sister's daily life."

"Powerful, less troublesome, what do you think, Imperial Sister?"

Ling Qingyan was really moved.

"But," Ling Qingyan rolled her eyes, "if we really follow my brother's plan, what will happen to the Prince Consort?"

She is the empress, he is the prince consort, where is the prince consort?

What is this called, having two original wives?

Equal wife?

"A consort is still a consort, or he can just join the harem." Ling Zhuoan said as a matter of course, "Think about it, Yanyan, when you were a princess, he could be a consort, but if you were an empress, your status would rise, and as the ruler of a country, he would naturally follow you into the harem."

"Although he is a prince consort, he is from Wei. Since the founding of Ling State, no one has taken the throne of the empress from his country. At best, he is a concubine in the harem, which is not bad."

"Didn't Pei Wuyou say that he just wanted to stay by Yanyan's side? It doesn't matter where he stays. Besides, being a concubine in the emperor's harem is a higher status than being a princess's consort. He should be grateful."

Seeing that Ling Qingyan was still hesitant, Ling Zhuoan continued to induce her.

"Besides, Yanyan also knows that the concubines of the princess's mansion are all powerful people, such as Ji Yanxing, Ling Yu, and Mu Xianzhi. These people have extraordinary identities. Being one of the empress's concubines is better than being a concubine."

“It’s also more in line with their identity.”

"It can also help you achieve your desired goals. Although Lingguo is open and women can serve as officials, Yanyan has also seen that only one in ten women can succeed in officialdom, and their careers are extremely difficult. Yanyan's good friend, Chen Mansheng, is considered the highest-ranking female official."

"She also needs the imperial sister to protect her, but she is still being impeached and excluded every day, and her life is difficult."

"But with a female emperor, things are different. Even if my sister does nothing and just holds the title, she can make the paths of women across the world smoother and less arduous. Isn't this what my sister has always wanted to see?"

Ling Zhuoan knew Ling Qingyan very well. He knew what his sister cared about and what she was thinking about.

She has a kind heart. She wants to do her best to make life fair and smooth for all women in the world. She wants everyone around her to be happy and to reduce suffering in the world.

She is different from him. Although he also cares about people's livelihood, he is ruthless and can sacrifice something to achieve his goals.

He knew clearly that his character was flawed.

He governed the country together with Ling Qingyan not just out of his own selfish considerations.

The emperor's sister's personality complements his. He can make the country strong, and Ling Qingyan can keep the people safe.

While Ling Qingyan was thinking, Ling Zhuo'an continued to analyze the situation with her: "Look, you and I are co-leaders. It's good for the country, for women, for the imperial sister, for me, and for Ji Yanxing and the others."

"The only one who is missing is Pei Wuyou."

"But so what?"

"He should be content to be with you. He can't have it all. Besides, I think if he truly loves the Imperial Sister, he should put her first in everything."

"And it just so happens that the two countries are getting married. If the imperial sister becomes the empress, it would make more sense for the Wei Kingdom to explain it."

Ling Zhuoan chattered incessantly.

There must be selfish motives.

If he had no official status, wouldn't he be the emperor alone in the capital in the future?

Qingyan is traveling with others. What if those scheming bitches persuade the imperial sister to settle down somewhere else?

He couldn't find it.

He and Qingyan govern the country together. Although he still has to handle government affairs in the capital, even if his imperial sister travels around the country at that time, he at least has peace of mind.

A reassurance that she will definitely return to Beijing.

"I've made up my mind, my royal brother." Ling Qingyan sat up straight with a firm expression, "I agree."

Ling Zhuoan was right. Even if she did nothing, she would still play a significant role for women in the world in that position.

Besides, she couldn't just do nothing.

Life is short, so we should live it to the fullest. Since she can't go back, she will live the life she wants in this world.

If I can make even a little contribution to this world and the women of this world, it will be worthwhile.
