Junlin has confirmed it.
She really is a woman!
So the emperor of the Azure Phoenix Empire is a female emperor!
No wonder I heard people say that some people in the court were dissatisfied with the new emperor when the notice was posted. So that's why.
Looking down at Junlin, Qing Yixue felt a faint sense of joy.
This wasn't because Junlin was so great, but simply because someone was finally willing to answer her imperial edict!
There are people in the court who are loyal to her.
But not everyone who seems loyal to her is truly loyal; they're all too good at pretending.
They were so good that she couldn't tell the difference.
Therefore, she was delighted by the arrival of King's Landing, because she really needed someone she could trust!
But she was also afraid that Junlin would be led astray by others in the court.
Qing Yixue was lost in thought and hadn't had a chance to speak yet.
In the court, a minister angrily rebuked Jun Lin, "Insolence! Why don't you kneel down immediately before His Majesty?"
"???"
The king's gaze fell upon the minister who had spoken, an old man with gray hair who was now looking at him with righteous indignation.
Jun Lin was secretly pleased; he wasn't going to indulge the other party.
He immediately retorted angrily, "You old Bi Deng, you really have a foul mouth! His Majesty hasn't even spoken, what are you barking about like a dog? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were the emperor!"
The old man flew into a rage, "You! You little brat, you have no manners!"
"Oh?" Junlin raised an eyebrow. "You only said I was impolite, not that I slandered you? It seems you really want to be emperor!"
"You...you! Don't you dare slander me! My loyalty to the royal family is as clear as day!"
Junlin scoffed, "Just loyal to the royal family? Is that so ambiguous? Then who exactly are you loyal to? It's not some vassal king, is it?"
"You! You! You scoundrel! Of course I am loyal to His Majesty!" The old man was so angry that he almost jumped up and down.
"Alright! Let's all keep quiet!" Qing Yixue stopped them.
Seeing Junlin angrily confront this old man, Qing Yixue was happy.
What does this tell us?
This showed that King's Landing and that old man were not on the same side, which put her at ease.
But in doing so, King's Landing has offended this old man, and things might not be so easy for them in the future.
Thinking of this, Qing Yixue became somewhat worried again.
It's not easy to find someone willing to take on the challenge; we can't let these damned old fogies ruin it.
However, not long after Qing Yixue finished speaking.
Then another old man sitting in a chair stood up and said, "Hmph! His Majesty wants to recruit virtuous and talented people, not petty people who only know how to talk big."
Junlin glanced at Qing Yixue.
Is this girl really the emperor?
Why does he seem to lack any sense of authority?
Could he be a puppet emperor?
Although he was speechless, Junlin still said, "First, I am indeed a talented person! Second, thank you for your praise!"
The old man was taken aback. When did he praise this kid?
But none of that matters.
Since this kid claims to be a talented individual, then he has a way to make him back down.
He immediately said, "Since you claim to be a talented person, then I will test you now."
"Test me?" Jun Lin chuckled. "You think you're worthy again?"
