"When my father and grandfather are disappointed in me, they may pass the throne to those who want it. I will just live a carefree life according to my own wishes."

Su Yi seemed to want to tear his heart open for Mu Jin to see, and continued, "But fate brought me to you, and I want to be with you, even though I know you look down on me." As he said this, Su Yi even gave a self-deprecating laugh.

Knowing that you are Su Yuntian's princess, I am filled with disappointment. Although I know that such behavior is against common sense, I am like a man possessed, always wanting to seize every opportunity to get close to you, even just watching you quietly from afar makes me happy.

"Perhaps it was a blessing from heaven that one day you divorced Su Yuntian. On the day you divorced him, I was overjoyed, so I pulled the Moon Shadow Guards of the Yi King's Mansion to practice martial arts with me. From morning to night, I sparred with countless people until dusk. Finally, they joined forces to defeat me, and my extremely excited mood calmed down a little."

Mu Jin knew that Su Yi liked her. After all, Su Yi had expressed his feelings for her countless times. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't moved at all.

But now that her father and brothers are in trouble, how can she have any other thoughts to manage her personal feelings? Besides, now that Su Yi is the emperor, he will have countless women around him in the future, making a relationship with her even more impossible.

"Su Yi!"

"Ah Jin, listen to what I have to say first."

“When I saw you being hunted down and forced to hide in order to leave the capital, and when I saw your father and brothers being disliked by the royal family and thus framed and imprisoned, and you were forced to compromise in order to get your father and brothers back, I suddenly thought, if I were sitting in that highest position, perhaps you wouldn’t have to wrong yourself. Thinking that way, the throne is not entirely useless.”

“Ah Jin, I accepted the throne of Southern Shu not because I like power, but because I know that I must stand higher to better protect you.”

"You're asking me for three thousand elite soldiers, how could I refuse? I just hope you can go through the trouble a bit more and take me and those two hundred thousand soldiers with you to fight your way to Dongyue, is that alright?"
