Chen Rui sat in the space of the magic carriage. This magic carriage was a gift from Catherine to Jía. There was an exquisite room inside, and he didn't feel the bumps outside at all. Chen Rui was no stranger to this kind of space item. When he first met Catherine, he was once a captive in a carriage.
Chen Rui sat on the sofa in the hall, and the scene of his meeting with Catherine before leaving the Dark Shadow Palace replayed in his mind.
"I'm really confused," Catherine's eyes showed undisguised suspicion, "It's undeniable that if you look deeper, your so-called alliance kingdom is not a bubble. Maybe … I mean 'maybe', it can become a system that makes the Demon Realm truly peaceful and united. However, what I can't figure out is that as a human, what is your real purpose for making the mortal enemy, Demon Realm, become united and powerful? Why did you control it again and again? "
"You think too much." Chen Rui smiled bitterly, "I never thought about controlling the Demon Realm. I'm just a lazy guy who wants to sleep peacefully with his woman."
"It's impossible that you don't know that the stronger the Demon Realm is, the greater the threat to the human world. Especially for this kind of alliance kingdom, the biggest contradiction will turn from internal to external. The Demon Realm has no corresponding enemy, so this external enemy can only be humans. Are you a noble abandoned by the human world, and you want to lead the Demon Realm army to destroy the human world for revenge after more than a hundred years? "
"Your imagination is too rich." Chen Rui shook his head, "Have you ever thought about why the Demon Realm and the human world must go to war? Even if the Demon Realm covets the sunlight and richness of the human world as the legend says, if the prosperity of the Demon Realm reaches the same level or even surpasses that of the human world, is it necessary to continue this endless war? As for the sunlight … I don't think the Demons who have fully adapted to the double moons will adapt to the sun better. However, there is one thing worth paying attention to. Judging from some information revealed by Midnight Sun, the war between humans and the Demon Realm doesn't seem to be so simple. Fortunately, there are still more than a hundred years. We have plenty of time to investigate this matter and plan many things, including our future. "
"It's you." Catherine's eyes looked down behind the veil, "It's not 'we'."
"It's' we ', definitely!" Chen Rui showed a determined look.
…
"Chen Rui, what are you thinking about?"
Jía's voice interrupted Chen Rui's recollection. Chen Rui came back to his senses and smiled, "Nothing … Do you think that I acted on my own this time? Especially the 2-year armistice agreement with Raizen, and those provisions that may make the Fallen Angel Empire very passive? "
"What we need the most right now is to fight for time to recuperate and develop. Moreover, I can sense that your intentions are not limited to this. Perhaps you have your own plans … I have never doubted a certain human's cunning and treacherous nature." A smile appeared on Jía's face. With a rare intelligence, she was bright and beautiful, completely devoid of her usual coldness and dignity.
"I have to say, your vocabulary of derogatory terms far exceeds that of commendatory terms." Chen Rui smiled and held her hand, "2 years … As long as you give me 2 years, everything will change. As for those provisions … they will have unexpected effects. By then, no matter which aspect, the initiative will be firmly in our hands."
Jía was a little surprised. This answer was still far above her expectations, but she did not doubt what Chen Rui said because it was this man's plan that changed the dilapidated and backward Dark Moon Estate and changed the entire Fallen Angel Empire. This time, it would change the entire Demon Realm.
"Then … I'll wait and see."
"There is a multiple-choice question …" Chen Rui couldn't help but blurt out when he thought of the pair of calm black eyes.
"What?"
"Nothing …" Chen Rui rubbed his nose, "It's just a man's damn vanity."
"Then, you underestimate a woman's curiosity." Jía smiled slightly, "I want to hear your multiple-choice question."
"Well, it's just a boring question on a whim." Chen Rui looked into her eyes, "If one day, the empire and I can only choose one, which one will you choose?"
Jía's smile froze on her face, and her eyes instantly dimmed, "If I can, I hope I never have such an opportunity to choose."
"Sorry, I shouldn't have asked such a bastard question." Chen Rui felt Jía's depressed mood, and he knocked his head hard, "This question is actually as f * cking as' falling into the river at the same time '. The guy who asked this question should be kicked into the river. I was bewitched just now, don't take it to heart."
"No, this is an unavoidable question. I should be the one saying sorry. Between you and me, I'm too selfish. I'm not greedy for power, but as an emperor who carries the hopes of all the people of the empire, I can't abandon my responsibility, I … "
"I understand." Chen Rui kissed her forehead, "You have never abandoned your responsibility, just like … you abandoned the past to become a cold lord."
Just like, she.
Jía leaned gently on his shoulder, "The only thing I can do is to trust you unreservedly, even if …"
"There is no 'even if', Jía. Believe me, we will never face such a choice. I will always be by your side."
The two hugged without any unnecessary words. There was only warm silence.
Jía suddenly raised her head, and her face blushed shyly, "Maybe there is another way, that is … an heir."
Chen Rui's eyes lit up, "Yes, it's time to plan our future. It seems that we still have a very important thing to accomplish in order to achieve this method? Ouch … "
Obviously, a certain mischievous hand was punished by Her Majesty Empress.
On the tower of the Shadow Palace, another Her Majesty Empress watched the carriage of the Fallen Angel envoys go away, and she was speechless for a long time.
After a while, she sighed faintly, "Lilith, if there is one person who would rather subvert the entire …"
She didn't finish this sentence. Lilith, who was on the side, felt a little strange. She saw Her Majesty Empress suddenly covering her veil, and there seemed to be a retching sound coming from her throat. She hurriedly asked, "Your Majesty?"
Catherine's hand trembled slightly. She took a few deep breaths and finally recovered her usual calmness. She seemed to change the topic and asked, "Lilith, how is the progress of the military and economic adjustment?"
"Your Majesty, according to your instructions, it is almost completed."
Catherine nodded, "Immediately gather all the ministers for a meeting. I have important things to announce. By the way, Lilith, hand over the affairs at hand to Xi Lu as soon as possible, but I'm sorry, you can't take a vacation yet because I have more important tasks for you to complete."
"Yes." Lilith bowed slightly and retreated.
After Lilith left, Catherine gently stroked her abdomen. There was a strange emotion in her calm eyes. She whispered to herself, "Future? We … "
The result of the peace talks between the three empires quickly spread throughout the Demon Realm. The soldiers at the border were relieved, especially the Fallen Angel Empire. Although 2 years was not a long time, at least they could get valuable breathing time.
Compared with those technical terms, the upcoming battle ball league and next year's alchemist contest were more eye-catching, especially the battle ball league which had aroused the enthusiasm of a large number of battle ball fans.
Of course, the most eye-catching was the Demon Realm martial arts contest held by the strongest powerhouse, Raizen the Great, 2 years later. It was said that Raizen the Great publicly invited Aguile, the husband of the Fallen Angel Empire, and Aguile had accepted the challenge. This would be the biggest event in the entire Demon Realm.
A few days later, there were 2 more major news.
Next month, the Fallen Angel Empire Empress Jía and Aguile would hold a grand wedding in the Fallen Angel Capital. There were countless rumors about Aguile's identity before. The most common version was that "Aguile is of the Beelzebub Royal Family". However, these were just rumors. Aguile assisted Jía from the Dark Moon, helped her kill Obsidian to ascend the throne, and fought against Raizen in the Warlock Fortress. These were real achievements. Objectively speaking, the status of the husband was only equivalent to an accessory, just like the empress. If Her Majesty Empress wanted, she could have countless other "imperial concubines". In the history of the Demon Realm, there were countless such examples.
In any case, with Jía's current prestige and control in the Fallen Angel Empire, there was no objection to the date of this wedding.
Another piece of news was that the Dark Shadow Empire's Empress Catherine would meditate behind closed doors to comprehend the secret treasure of the Asmodeus Royal Family, the undead puppet. The time would be about a year. During this period, the government affairs were temporarily handled by the 2 prime ministers, and the retired Royal Uncle Florence was invited to take charge of the army. People speculated that Catherine was likely to participate in the fighting contest 2 years later, which made everyone's attention to the fighting contest rise again.
In any case, the next 2 years would be highly anticipated 2 years.
Although Jía had the title of "Iceberg Princess" when she was in the Dark Moon, and after ascending the throne, a series of ruthless means made people tremble, the beauty of Her Majesty Empress was indeed well-known in the empire. Even if it was not as good as the first beauty, the Dark Shadow Empire, it was not far from it. Many men were full of jealousy, envy, and hatred for Aguile who could kiss the empress. For "Aguile" or the Fallen Angel Empire, the wedding with the empress was a great joy, but for the guy who owned a crystal palace, it meant the beginning of a shock wave.
Athena, "Greetings, Your Royal Highness Prince Consort!"
Kia, "Your Royal Highness Prince Consort, what's the matter?"
Isabella, "Ai, it turns out to be Your Royal Highness Prince Consort …"
Rolla, "What?"
Paglio, "Yo, the cunning Royal Highness Prince Consort is here."
Lomont, "Um … Your Royal Highness Prince Consort."
Olypheus, "Old … Your Royal Highness Prince Consort! My sister asked me to call him that! "
Chen Rui, "…"
For 3 days in a row, whether it was Athena, Kia, Rolla, or Isabella, none of them paid attention to him. They greeted him respectfully when they met, then they avoided him.
The harem's male pig feet, who was having fun every night, suddenly fell into the predicament of staying alone in an empty room. This huge gap made the male pig feet burst into tears.
Obviously, the upcoming wedding with Jía was undoubtedly a huge impact on the rest of the harem ladies.
Chen Rui understood in his heart that for these girls whose feelings and efforts were no less than or even more than Jía, it was very unfair to only confirm the status with Jía, so Chen Rui made a decision.
Propose!
Propose to the girls in the name of Chen Rui!
