Chapter 854 Promise Lingyun to be the Queen
Su Nuan blushed and looked away, "Wha...what?"
Ling Yun was a little disappointed. He pushed the melon seeds in front of him towards Su Nuan and said, "Eat the melon and watch the show."
When Su Nuan saw the melon seeds, she immediately grabbed a handful and started cracking them. It turned out that pregnant women can't stop talking, and they would get angry if they stopped.
Ling Yun took out some other dried fruits with a doting look in his eyes and peeled them for her himself.
The old man didn't know what was wrong with him. He just jumped up and cursed, "You...you are simply treating national affairs as a joke."
"You are not worthy to be here. Hand over the imperial seal immediately. I will take charge of this country."
Su Nuan looked at Ling Cang, "What is your current position? Regent?"
Ling Cang nodded, "Yes, there aren't many official positions now, so I'll use them where they matter most."
"For now, we should focus on getting food and medicinal materials. The rest can be put off until later."
Su Nuan nodded, "Yes, food is the most important thing for the people. Food and medicinal materials are indeed very important."
The old man found that no one took him seriously, so he jumped around like a clown.
“You…you…”
Su Nuan looked up at the old man who was shaking with anger and said with a smile, "You really have no self-awareness at all."
Ling Yun smiled and said, "There are people surrounding us outside, and we can't get out. Someone has to make some fun for us."
Ling Cang nodded, "That's right. By the way, mother told you to stop running around when you come back and focus on taking care of the baby."
Ling Yun frowned and looked at Su Nuan, his eyes full of pleading, "Come back, don't leave. We already have an emperor, but no empress yet."
Su Nuan glanced at Ling Yun, "Why? You still want me to help you choose a queen?"
Ling Yun quickly shook his head, "I want you to be the queen."
Su Nuan frowned and touched her belly. It would indeed be inconvenient to go out with a bigger belly, and the child also needed an identity.
"Okay, but the child will have my last name."
She felt that she couldn't take advantage of Ling Yun. No one knew who the father of this child was. She couldn't let him take away the status of Ling Yun's child.
Ling Yun didn't care about the child's surname. As long as Su Nuan didn't leave and was willing to be the queen, everything would be fine.
He said happily: "No problem, as long as you don't run around, I'll do whatever you say."
Su Nuan nodded, not taking it seriously.
She was planning to wait until the child was born and get the identity certificate before running away.
The old man's eyes widened as he pointed at Su Nuan and said, "You...you...you actually married the emperor with a bastard?"
"Lingyun, I don't want your throne, but if you marry my granddaughter, I guarantee you'll have a few sons."
Ling Yun looked up at the old man, touched his chin and said, "I seem a little annoyed."
Ling Cang immediately stood up, stretched out his thugs, grabbed the old man by the back of his collar and dragged him out.
"You guys chat, I still have to go back to see my wife."
Su Nuan chuckled, "The enemy is at the gates, and you're so relaxed."
Ling Yun placed the dried nuts in front of Su Nuan and said with a smile, "It's okay. Let them starve for a few days before fighting."
Su Nuan asked in surprise: "They marched without food?"
Ling Yun didn't know what he remembered, and the smile on his face deepened. "Do you remember the temple outside the city?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Remember, you're not coming here anymore?"
Ling Yun laughed out loud, "Here it is. When the Yuan Kingdom army passed by the temple, their food was cheated away by Bu Du."
"The soldiers of Yuan Kingdom are all hungry now, and they dare not catch the piranhas in the water."
Su Nuan didn't expect Bu Du to lie. She laughed and said, "But why don't they go back and rob the temple?"
Ling Yun shook his head, "They don't dare. Who would dare to steal the Ghost King's things?"
Su Nuan nodded, "That's true, but the Ghost King being a monk in a temple is a bit... well... weird."
Ling Yun didn't elaborate on this and asked, "Are you tired? I'll take you back to the villa."
Su Nuan put away the nuts and nodded, "Let's go. We need to have a good rest."
Ling Yun sent Su Nuan back to the villa and left.
Su Nuan was fed by Xue and the old lady in the villa and lived a comfortable life.
Two months later, Su Nuan was really bored, so she asked Xue for permission to go out shopping.
"Mom, I'm so bored. I need to go out for a walk or I'll get fat like a pig."
Xue smiled and said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."
Su Nuan nodded, "Okay."
The gates of Sifang City are now open, and all the soldiers from Yuan State who once blocked the gates have been recruited by Ling Yun.
There were many more merchants from the Northern Snow Country and the Western Sea Country on the streets, making it look very prosperous.
Xue smiled and said, "This is all thanks to you. Without you, there would be no Sifang City."
Su Nuan was shocked by the new dragon vein. It looked much better than the one she had placed casually.
Now she heard what Xue said, and shook her head: "This is the result of our joint efforts. I can't do it alone."
Xue asked tentatively: "What are your plans for the future?"
Su Nuan was caught off guard and spoke directly from her heart.
"Let's get married first. When the child is born, I'll take him out to play. The world is so big, I don't want to be trapped in the palace."
Xue pursed her lips. She didn't know what to say. It would be selfish to persuade Su Nuan to stay, but she couldn't let Su Nuan leave either.
After all, the world is so big, who knows if there will be danger outside?
In the end, Xue decided to let Ling Yun try hard to keep Su Nuan. After all, if a woman's heart doesn't stay, it means that the man is not trying hard.
Su Nuan saw a new restaurant and immediately said, "Stop the car. I'm going to try the food there."
Xue got out of the car and the two of them entered the restaurant.
They were all dressed very casually, but the waiter didn't judge them by their clothes. He approached them and asked with a smile, "Would you two ladies like to dine in or have a private room?"
Su Nuan thought for a moment and said, "Dine in, sit by the window over there."
The waiter immediately smiled and said, "Okay, both of you, please!"
Su Nuan sat down at a seat by the window. She wanted to hear what the diners in the lobby were talking about.
Mrs. Xue ordered some meals suitable for pregnant women.
It's not dinner time yet, and there are only two tables of guests in the hall.
At one of the tables sat a burly man wearing a tiger skin, who looked like a hunter.
He laughed and said, "My trip was really worthwhile. Those unsaleable furs can be exchanged for a lot of food here."
A scholar-looking man across from him said with a smile, "Brother, it's a pity that there are no imperial examinations here. I'd like to stay and study."
The hunter frowned and asked, "No imperial examinations? Then there's an academy, right? You can stay and study, and I'll raise the tuition for you."
The scholar shook his head again. "There are so many subjects in the academy here. I'm a little hesitant about what to study."
"You see, our country has a lot of furs, gems, and minerals, but we're not familiar with growing them."
"I want to learn farming. I'm sure my classmates will laugh at me later. If I don't learn, I'll only be able to recite poetry and write couplets and won't be able to support myself. Sigh..."
The scholar's words moved Su Nuan. Since the Sifang Kingdom had just been established, it was time to hold an imperial examination to select various talents.
At this time, the old man at another table said, "You can go to the Tower of Babel. The higher the official position, the better!"
