In the year 796 of the Peacock Calendar, the Peacock King Ying Boyan led the elites of the Nine Nations to expel the demons from the Abyss and save the Divine Prefecture.
In the year 797 of the Peacock calendar, the Peacock Dynasty destroyed the Great Zhou and the Great Wu.
In the year 798 of the Peacock calendar, the imperial families of the Black Flame Empire and West Wind Empire submitted a letter of credence to the Peacock Imperial Court, willing to pledge allegiance to the Peacock Emperor Ying Boyan.
In the year 798 of the Peacock Calendar, the Desert Kingdom, the Spirit Race, the Prairie Tribe, the Sun Kingdom, and Tus submitted their letters of credence to the Peacock King, willing to become a vassal state of the Peacock Dynasty. The Nine Nations were unified, and the Peacock King Ying Boyan became the ruler of the Human Race.
In the year 799 of the Peacock calendar, the Peacock Dynasty changed its name to 'Great Qin' and the Peacock King Ying Boyan became the first 'First Emperor' of the Great Qin.
In the same year, the King of Qin, Ying Boyan, devoted himself to cultivation in order to obtain the Immortal Body and passed the throne to his eldest daughter, Ying Qiandu. Ying Qiandu became the first female emperor in history, as well as the first female emperor to rule over the entire human race.

After Ying Qiandu ascended the throne, he began to balance and divide the forces of the previous nine nations. He established the imperial system and the central government system represented by the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers. Great efforts were made to promote the unified culture and customs of vehicles sharing the same track, books sharing the same language, and people sharing the same ethics.
The people of the Nine Nations wrote the same language, used the same currency, and followed the same etiquette, morals, and laws …
This young Empress, with her outstanding aptitude and talent, had become a wise Empress who was praised and respected by the world.
Empress Qiandu was serious and open-minded, diligent and delegating power. The entire Qin Empire's atmosphere was renewed, and the country's power was rising day by day. It could be said that the dweller had a house, the sick had a doctor, the diligent had a job, and the laborer had a reward. Youth has its learning, and childhood has its joy. The reader has his school, and the north has its help. Old people have their own upbringing, and businessmen have their own profits.
People lived and worked in peace and contentment without worrying about food and clothing. There was also a flourishing style of writing, splendid and romantic, a flourishing age.
However, there was one thing that the people of Great Qin were always talking about: the Empress's marriage.
Some people said that since Empress Qiandu was the emperor of a country, she naturally could not marry again. If the Empress got married and gave birth to a child, who would inherit the throne? Could they still preserve the purity of the royal bloodline of the Ying Clan?
Some people said that the Empress was naturally going to marry, but she wanted to marry an outstanding man from the Ying Family. That way, she would be able to have children to inherit the throne and maintain the Ying Family's rule over Great Qin.
There were also people who said that among the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers, Madam Zhou proposed to the Empress, and Madam Lin proposed to the Empress …
There was even a rumor that the Empress had fallen in love with a commoner youth when she was still not the Empress, and that she would marry into a poor family in the future.
Everyone had their own opinions, but there was no conclusion.
Just when everyone thought that Empress Qiandu would forever be high and mighty and would never marry, the royal family of Great Qin announced that the Empress would choose an auspicious day to get married.
The whole world was shocked!
Queen Qiandu … was getting married?
What kind of man was the Empress going to marry? Would she marry a man or … a boy?
Which family's young man was worthy of a woman like the Thousand Degrees Empress?

Clang!
The bedroom door was slammed open.
Li Shinian darted inside, shouting: "Brother — — brother — —"
Just as he was about to barge in, a fat hand grabbed his ear.
"Ouch, it hurts … it hurts … Mom, let go …"
"Little girl, you're already so big, but you still like to knock on doors like when you were a child … You have no respect for your elders, you don't understand etiquette. How are you going to get married in the future? "Luo Chi roared.
"Who said I'm going to get married? I'm not going to get married in my life … Mom, let go, my ear is about to be pulled off by you — — I'm a Buddha, give me some face — — "
"Buddha? I don't care what Buddha you are, I know you're my daughter — — If you're not obedient, I'll pull your ear to teach you a lesson. "
"Mom, let go of Shinian — —" Li Muyang put down the paintbrush in his hand and said with a smile, "She's a child."
"Let go?" Although Luo Chi's words were fierce, her hand let go of Li Shinian's little ear. "She used to be impolite and didn't understand the rules, but not in the future — —"
"What do you mean not in the future?" Li Shinian rubbed his ear, sounding very dissatisfied. "I used to be your daughter, but I won't be your daughter in the future?"
"Of course not. Your brother is going to marry Qiandu today — — What is Qiandu's identity? She is the Empress of the Great Qin — — If you just barge in like before without knocking the door, wouldn't that cause a lot of trouble? Besides, when the time comes, Qiandu will be accompanied by the female officials of the palace. If you're so impolite, people will laugh at you and say that our family has no manners — — "
Li Shinian blinked, running forward to hug Li Muyang's arm. "Brother, after you get married, will you live with sister Qiandu in the palace, or will sister Qiandu live with you in our own home — —"
"I won't live in the palace, nor will I live in my own home — —" Li Muyang said with a smile.
"Then where are you going to live?" Li Shinian asked like a curious baby.
Li Muyang looked at Luo Chi and said, "Mother, I've thought about it. I'll live in the Dragon Palace from now on."
"The Dragon Palace?" Luo Chi was obviously a little disappointed. "The Dragon Palace is good, and the place is big enough, but that kind of place — — is a little too empty, and there's no sense of life. After all, it's a little inconvenient for you to live there. "
"Mother, although Qiandu and I are married, Qiandu is after all the Empress of the Great Qin Empire, and there are a lot of work that needs to be done every day. My identity is also relatively special, and I need to patrol the four seas and three worlds — — so, I may live in the Dragon Palace more often in the future. But, as long as I have time, I will come back to visit you. When you have nothing to do, you can also stay in the Dragon Palace with me for a while — — just think of it as playing around and relaxing — — and when you want to come back, I will send you back. In the past, we had nowhere to go, but now we can live everywhere. Why are you troubled again? "
"Where are you going to play?" A gentle and kind woman's voice was heard.
Before her voice faded, she saw Gongsun Yu coming over with a large group of servants.
"Big Sister, we are urging Muyang to get up quickly. Today is his big day, he has to get up and dress up — — Soon we will go to the palace to pay our respects, we must not be impolite. "
"That's right." Gongsun Yu waved her hand, and Jing 'er rushed over with Xi Xue and Splashing Ink. Some were combing their hair, some were taking off their clothes, and everyone was extremely busy. "I used to think that my child Muyang would marry a princess or something, but I never thought that — — he would marry a monarch."
"Now, all the great scholars in the country have searched through the history books, but do not know what kind of etiquette to use for this wedding — — there is no precedent. Fortunately, Qiandu understood the general situation and decided to hold the ceremony in the palace first. After all, many Dukes and Generals would be there to witness the ceremony. It is said that the guests this time are from as far away as the Northern Underworld, and almost all the important figures of the nine countries have gathered in the Peacock Imperial City. This is because Princess Qiandu strives to simplify the ceremony. If it is a big ceremony, I fear that the Peacock Imperial Palace will not be able to hold — — "
The Peacock Imperial Court had unified the nine countries, and Empress Qiandu was now the ruler of the human race. The Emperor of the human race was about to get married, which duke, marquis, Prince, City Lord, Lord, General would not want to come and drink a cup of wine?
This was a symbol of status, a fatal moment to determine whether you can occupy a shred of weight in the Emperor's heart.
After the Peacock Imperial Court unified the nine countries, the capital city of the Peacock Imperial Court, the Sun City, became the imperial city of the nine countries, the centre of the world.
Since the date of the ceremony was set, countless people who were qualified to attend the ceremony or tried to get an invitation card set off to the Sun City. Even those who did not receive an invitation card and were not qualified to enter the palace to attend the ceremony also wanted to go to the Sun City to feel the lively and festive atmosphere.
This time, it would most likely be a once-in-a-lifetime wedding.
Therefore, at this time, the Sun City was overcrowded. It was said that the best guest rooms and courtyards had long been snapped up, and there were countless people who could not find a place to stay even with gold coins.
The Lu clan had also moved from West Wind Tiandu to the Sun City. Not only the Lu clan, but the other conquered imperial families had also moved here.
Although Lu Xingkong was still alive, he was seriously injured, and more than half of his body had been invaded by the abyss demon qi. Although Li Muyang had saved his life, it was most likely impossible for him to restore his cultivation base.
Lu Qingming was appointed as the 'Great Military Officer', which was the position that Lu Xingkong had held in the West Wind Kingdom before, and was also the first officer in charge of the entire Great Qin military power.
Ying Qiandu naturally gave such an important position to Lu Qingming because of Li Muyang's great contribution in helping the human race defeat the Demon King and expel the three-eyed demon. On this point, no one objected.
However, if Ying Qiandu and Li Muyang got married, this position would most likely be taken back, and Lu Qingming would be given the position of Prince of Leisure.
Otherwise, there would be countless people who would tremble in fear and would not be able to sleep at night.
This was imperial power, this was politics!
"Then in the evening, she will come to our Lu residence to hold the wedding ceremony, which is to celebrate with her family. Of course, she will stay in our Lu residence tonight. In any case, we have to follow the ancient etiquette. Unfortunately, she has to return to the palace early tomorrow morning — — "
"Mother, don't be sad. Think about it, Qiandu is the monarch of a country, how much official business does she have to deal with every day? It's not convenient for her to deal with official business if she stays in our Lu residence. Besides, if she stays in the Lu residence, is she the monarch of the Great Qin, or the daughter-in-law of the Lu residence? Whether it's public or private, how many people would be jealous? How many people would gossip behind her back? Let's not make things difficult for Qiandu. "
"Big brother is right." Li Shinian added.
"Oh, you haven't married your daughter-in-law yet and you're already speaking up for her? What? Only you brother and sister can see the big picture, us old people can't? " Luo Chi sneered, turning to look at Gongsun Yu. "Sister, don't you think he forgot his mother after getting married?"
"That's right. I also know that Qiandu has her own difficulties, this is not — — how can a son follow his bride back to her parents' home right after getting married? Which dynasty and which generation's etiquette is this? "Gongsun Yu naturally stood on the side of Luo Chi.
"All right, don't argue about these little things." Lu Qingming hurried over. "Muyang quickly get ready, the palace's escort envoy will be here soon."
"The palace's escort envoy?" Gongsun Yu looked taken aback for a moment. "Aren't we going to the palace to escort the bride? Why would the people from the palace come to our house to escort the bride? "
"That's right, we're getting a bride, we're not marrying off the little girl at home — —"
Lu Qingming looked embarrassed. "How can there be an Emperor who is being married off — — anyway, it's just a formality, at night the Lu residence's escort team will bring the bride back."
"— —"
