In fact, strictly speaking, it makes no difference who is the emperor of the current Nine Star Empire.
Because there is an empress in charge, whoever sits on the throne will be a true emperor, because he has the powerful empress behind him to suppress him.
To put it bluntly.
In other words, whoever becomes emperor now will be the spokesperson for the empress.
As for the problem of Li Qingyue's relatively simple thinking, it is only because she has little experience, but she is not really stupid. As she comes into contact with more things and matures in the future, she will naturally not be like this anymore.
Li Qingyue looked at Su Chen with a more pleasing look, and there was always a smile on her face, but soon her expression became extremely serious again.
"But... our royal family has rules, set by my mother. If I were a princess, you would have to be stronger than me if you wanted to marry me. In other words, you would have to defeat me. If I became an emperor, then you would have to pass my royal family's test, otherwise you can't be my man."
oh?
Su Chen raised his eyebrows slightly. Does the royal family have such rules?
Li Qingyue said, a thoughtful expression on her face: "In terms of strength, you must have hidden your cultivation level. It is definitely not just the Xuanxian realm. You are definitely stronger than me."
"But if this is a test from our royal family, I'm afraid you're in trouble. By the way...what realm are you in?"
As she spoke, she looked at Su Chen with curiosity, her eyes full of thirst for knowledge.
Su Chen smiled immediately: "You want to know? Sure, kiss me and I'll tell you."
Li Qingyue's cheeks immediately turned red. She pouted and turned her head away. Although they had had sex before, when she thought about it, Li Qingyue would definitely not admit that she was the one who took the initiative.
It must have been Su Chen who forced him.
snort!
Su Chen's face was full of regret: "Then you won't be able to know my strength. This is just one chance, and there will be no chance in the future."
Li Qingyue still didn't say anything, but turned her head away and snorted again.
Su Chen did not force it. He smiled and asked, "Does the empress also have a man?"
After asking this question, she felt a little stupid.
The Empress already has a child, how could she not have a man? Should she work hard on her own? That's not very realistic.
Li Qingyue shook her head, indicating no.
Um?
Su Chen's eyes widened suddenly. There are no men. Then are you all adopted?
Li Qingyue seemed to know what Su Chen wanted to ask, so she quickly explained: "Don't let your imagination run wild. Mother is very powerful and the most powerful person in the Nine Star Empire. Naturally, she has a strong vision and looks down on any man."
"As for us, we all came from our mother's womb. Having reached this level, it's not difficult to condense the power of heaven and earth into a fetus. Our true bodies are the power of heaven and earth, and we have grown up using our mother's flesh and blood. In essence, we are all his children."
Su Chen nodded. He was also familiar with this method.
When he was unable to have children before, he thought about trying this method.
But the most crucial point about having a child in this way is that it is not his child, but the woman's child, because the power of heaven and earth does not come from him. The child is connected to the mother by flesh and blood and has the same blood, but is completely different from the man.
So I gave up later.
"So are your royal family's tests difficult?"
Li Qingyue nodded seriously upon hearing this: "It's very difficult. The biggest test is strength. You need to be at least at the Immortal Lord level to have a chance of passing. Otherwise, it's absolutely impossible."
After all, he is the ruler of a country. It will not work if the man is too bad.
Only those who have reached the Immortal King realm have a chance to pass, so it seems that the difficulty of this test is quite high.
Li Qingyue spoke again: "But this is the first time I've heard Auntie speak so highly of someone. You should have the means to do this, right?"
Her tone was full of doubt. She felt that Su Chen had indeed hidden his cultivation, but it was indeed a bit difficult to say that he had the strength of an Immortal King.
Li Qingyue was a little bit unconvinced.
Su Chen tutted, glanced at Li Qingyue, and then said with a smile, "Won't you know then? If I'm really not capable of this, won't you have an excuse to leave me and find a stronger man?"
Li Qingyue suddenly became angry. She glared at Su Chen and then angrily said, "Who do you think I am? We...we've been like that, how could I change to another man casually?"
After saying that, she ignored Su Chen and left, obviously a little angry at Su Chen's frivolous words.
"I'll send someone to pick you up later."
After leaving only these words, Li Qingyue's figure disappeared in the crowd.
Su Chen chuckled. This Li Qingyue was a little bit arrogant.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
The auction of the three major counties was decided by the empress, whose purpose was to test the strength of the princes and princesses. She had a total of eleven children, including eight boys and three girls. There were seven of them participating in this auction.
Five of them are princes, and only two are princesses.
The auction took place in the imperial palace, and outsiders had no idea about this matter. Only people within the royal family knew about it.
Financial resources can sometimes represent many things, and this can also be used to show the background and means of these people.
Ever since the empress announced her intention to select a new emperor, all the princes and princesses have begun to secretly recruit people. Now is the time for them to show their skills.
"Hey, isn't this the seventh sister?"
Suddenly, someone looked at the person at the door of the hall with an expression full of surprise.
"Why, Seventh Sister is also interested in the jurisdiction of these three counties?"
Li Qingyue walked into the room calmly. Beside him was Su Chen, but at this moment Su Chen did not reveal his original appearance. Instead, he wore a mask that covered his face, making it impossible to identify who he was.
No one paid any attention to it, because it was not just Li Qingyue, everyone present had brought people with them, and everyone was hiding themselves.
For them, if they can help the people they support take over the three major counties, then the probability of seizing the throne will be greatly increased.
However, due to the current uncertain situation, no one is willing to confirm their identities, so they covered their faces.
Another aspect is that they are all unwilling to reveal their cards now.
Li Qingyue looked up and saw that the person who spoke was the third prince.
"You all can come, why can't I come?"
Li Qingyue said very calmly.
The Third Prince sneered, then said again, "Seventh sister, don't forget that the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce is not allowed to interfere in internal affairs."
The Jiuxing Chamber of Commerce supplies directly to the royal treasury and is not allowed to interfere in any internal affairs, otherwise it will be treated as a serious crime.
It seems that Li Qingyue only has Li Ruoxin's support?
But since Li Ruoxin was in charge of the Nine Star Chamber of Commerce, even if he supported her it would only be verbal at best. If he actually supported Li Qingyue, it would not be so easy once they found out.
Li Qingyue said indifferently, "I'll trouble you, Third Brother, to take care of this."
