Chapter 455 I won’t lie to you
Di Chenyu nodded, “I’ve heard of it, but I don’t know the details.”
Shui Qingyin lowered her head, a little melancholy, “The Water Kingdom has a guardian beast, the Zhen Beast. Every time it wakes up, it will help the empress choose a husband. The chosen husband and the empress each have half of the imperial power. Therefore, the selection of the husband is of vital importance to the Water Kingdom.”
“Yes.”
“I…” Shui Qingyin paused, “Although I have three thousand beautiful men in the harem, I feel that none of them are qualified to be the husband. The government of the Water Kingdom is unstable, Shi He is pressing step by step, and I have only been on the throne for three years, so I want to choose the husband myself.”
“Choose by yourself?”
“Yes.”
"But I've never heard that the Empress of Water Kingdom can choose her own husband. It's always the Sanctification Beast who comes forward. The first girl born to the Empress and the husband will inherit the throne."
Strangely, every pair of empresses in Water Kingdom will have a princess born in their lives.
If the first child is a boy, he will be a prince, until the first princess is born and is named the crown prince.
Shui Qingyin is the first daughter of Queen Dowager Ning and the late husband.
"Actually, I can choose by myself. Sixth Prince, you don't have to worry about this. I tell you all this just because I want to choose you as my husband."
Emperor Chenyu frowned, "Me? Why?"
"The Sixth Prince's character is incomparable to others, and I admire him."
"Just because of this?"
Shui Qingyin was stunned.
Di Chenyu saw through her thoughts and chuckled, "But the Water Kingdom matter has nothing to do with me."
Shui Qingyin raised her eyes, "No, it does. The Water Kingdom ranks second among the seven countries. If Shi He is elected as the king's husband and takes away half of the imperial power, he has wolfish ambitions. If he targets other countries in the future, do you think that the Tiansheng Dynasty will be spared?"
Shui Qingyin carefully considered choosing Di Chenyu as the king's husband.
First, because she likes him.
Second, because Di Chenyu is worthy.
It is undeniable that Di Chenyu is the only person she has met who is qualified to be an emperor. She even thinks that if the Tiansheng Dynasty is passed on to Di Chenyu in the future, he will definitely be a wise ruler.
"Shen Qingqing, when you left the palace and fell from the roof of the guest inn, you did it on purpose to get close to me, right?"
Shui Qingyin's eyes flashed with panic.
It was not accidental that she escaped from the palace that day.
She received the news as soon as Di Chenyu and his brothers and sisters stepped into the capital.
She also knew why the three of them came.
To find Di Hongluan and the old immortal.
That night, she dressed up and went to the guest inn on purpose, and fell from the roof on purpose.
All this was just to appear in front of Di Chenyu.
She had been planning to like him for a long time. It was not that she had not thought about forcing herself on him, giving Di Chenyu some drugs, and losing her virginity to him was very simple for her.
Then, she ran away.
When the Verification Beast wakes up and finds Di Chenyu, the nail in the coffin will be set in stone, and she will also achieve her goal of choosing Di Chenyu as the king's husband.
However, when this idea came up, Shui Qingyin nipped it in the bud.
If she just wanted to use Di Chenyu's talents and make him the king's husband, she could have done so.
But unfortunately, she fell in love with Di Chenyu. Her
true love and yearning for him prevented her from using him at all.
The deliberate approach during those days was to fulfill her selfish desire to secretly love him.
"From the beginning to the end, you have already thought of this game of chess. You deliberately approached me with the purpose of deceiving me that I like you, and then you confess your identity so that I can become the king's husband?"
"I..." Shui Qingyin opened her mouth, how to explain?
As if her thoughts were exposed, she was nervous because of her guilty conscience. She couldn't help but hold the cup in front of her and gulp down the water in the cup.
Emperor Chenyu kept waiting for her explanation until Shui Qingyin slowly lowered her head. There was a warm anger in Emperor Chenyu's silent eyes, "The identity is fake, the forced marriage is fake, everything about Shen Qingqing is fake, Shen Qingqing, no, your majesty is so scheming!"
Saying that she likes him is also fake.
"It is said that His Majesty is a playboy and has the final say over life and death. I didn't believe it before, but now I do. For the sake of the king's wife, His Majesty is willing to put himself in the game and use emotions as a bargaining chip. That's right, the emperor is inherently ruthless. There are so many beautiful men in His Majesty's harem, so how can there be true love?"
Shui Qingyin frowned, and suddenly felt that her conversation with Di Chenyu was a little off the mark?
"You are angry that I lied to you, I apologize, and I won't lie to you again in the future." Shui Qingyin felt guilty.
Di Chenyu: "..."
Was he just angry that she lied to him?
He was angry that she... took feelings for granted.
"Let's get back to the point. I know that the matter of the prince's wife is very difficult for the Sixth Prince, but please think about the Tiansheng Dynasty and the common people and think about it carefully." Shui Qingyin looked sincere.
"If your majesty chooses someone else as the prince's wife, will your majesty still appear in front of me?"
Shui Qingyin: Ah?
There is no such if.
She has always wanted to choose him, and she wanted to choose him a long, long time ago.
Because she likes Di Chenyu.
When she was Shen Qingqing, she could say the word "like", but when she became Shui Qingyin, these two words could not be said casually.
The glory brought by the identity also restricted her emotionally.
But she has already thought of a way to keep her original intention and keep the Water Kingdom. It's
just that Di Chenyu doesn't seem to help her...
Yes.
Di Chenyu has no obligation to help herself.
Shui Qingyin suddenly felt a little hot, she frowned, looking at Di Chenyu in a trance, "Di Chenyu..."
She tried to keep a calm mood, but she couldn't help but get closer to Di Chenyu.
"Di Chenyu, I really like you, really like you."
It's not taking advantage.
It came from the heart.
He never knew that meeting at the bottom of the valley to save him was not their first meeting.
Di Chenyu had forgotten her, but she remembered.
"Your Majesty, in order to achieve the goal of choosing the king's husband, you really... did everything you could." Di Chenyu took a step back and avoided her, feeling inexplicably depressed.
Shui Qingyin curled her lips in self-mockery. Ha, she said that she would no longer lie to him, but Di Chenyu did not believe her.
"You go." Shui Qingyin clenched her five fingers in her sleeves into a fist. That glass of water was not normal.
It's time to go!
"Di Chenyu, you step down. I need to rest." Shui Qingyin turned and left, pausing. "I know you are unwilling to be the king's husband. I will not force you anymore. The safety of the Water Country has nothing to do with you. You go."
She will protect her country!
Even if she died, she would never drag Di Chenyu down with her again.
Di Chenyu looked at Shui Qingyin's back and felt that something was wrong with her.
Di Chenyu was a little distracted when he walked out of the hall.
On his way to find A Bao, he saw Shi He hurried into the hall from a distance at the other end of the corridor.
