When Jun Xie's horse carriage entered the Yan Country's Imperial Capital, the guards at the city gates asked them about it. But when they saw the disguised Jun Xie sitting inside the horse carriage, they were completely stunned. When they regained their senses, they immediately knelt down to pay their respects. Even after the horse carriage entered the city, the shock in their hearts still did not dissipate.
Their Majesty had returned!
His Majesty had returned!
Jun Xie's return, in an instant, stirred up a wave of shock in the Yan Country's Imperial Capital. Everyone could not believe that their ruler had returned!
Although Jun Xie had not stayed in the Fire Country for too long, but every single one of his actions, had shaken the very souls of every single one of the Fire Country's citizens. They all knew, that they had a powerful and young ruler.
In the Yan Country's Imperial Palace, the light from the fire flickered. In the Imperial Study, a lady who had her head lowered as she flipped through the scrolls had her brows furrowed up slightly. Piled up before the table, were countless letters asking for help that made one's heart jump.
The lady's countenance was beautiful, but not exceedingly beautiful. But under the warm glow of the fire, the lady's side profile seemed to have lost a tinge of gentleness, and gained a tinge of sharpness.
"The Yang Country has sent twelve consecutive letters asking for help. Your Highness, do you ….. want to ….." A palace maid standing at the side picked up the letters that had fallen from the floor and asked worriedly.
The lady sitting at the table raised her head slightly, her eyes calm and steady.
"The Yang Country's terrain is advantageous, easy to defend and hard to attack. From the moment they were attacked by the Poison Men army, they had already sent out letters asking for help. With the Yang Country's might, they are not completely helpless against the Poison Men army. They are just trying to reduce their own losses. Ignore them." Qu Ling Yue said with a frown.
"Then what about the Ling Country?" The palace maid looked at Qu Ling Yue who was now the Yan Country's Empress, her eyes filled with respect.
"Your Highness has already sent troops there." Qu Ling Yue muttered, and buried her head back into the scrolls spread out on the table.
Each letter was extremely urgent, and the contents were almost the same.
Asking for help!
Asking for help!
No matter how strong the Yan Country's army was, it would not be enough to divide them among the various countries. Qu Ling Yue had to pick out the ones who really needed help from those letters.
The palace maid stood silently at the side, not daring to open her mouth.
The Fire Country's Empress, under the Heavens, was a highly controversial woman.
She had been the Young Chieftain of the Thousand Beast City but she had encountered the most unbearable nightmare a woman could ever face. Just when everyone had thought that she would be abandoned by the entire world, the young ruler of the Fire Country wanted to take her as his Empress!
In the beginning, when Qu Ling Yue had just become the Fire Country's Empress, how much infamy had she shouldered? Not to mention that the people under the Heavens despised her for being unclean, even the citizens of the Fire Country felt ashamed of having such an Empress. If not for Jun Xie's resolute and stubborn decision at that time, if not for the Grand Adviser Wen Yu's patient support, after Qu Ling Yue was crowned the Empress, she might very well have been drowned to death by the spittle of the Fire Country's citizens.
Just when everyone under the Heavens had thought that such a shameful Empress would shut herself up within the Imperial Palace all day long and not step out, Qu Ling Yue had instead walked up to the Imperial Court after Jun Xie had left, to become the Empress who would represent Jun Xie in handling the Fire Country's affairs.
The little palace maid still remembered how badly Qu Ling Yue had been scolded at that time. Even she, a bystander, could not help but cry, let alone Qu Ling Yue.
But Qu Ling Yue didn't cry, not even once.
