ith pain!"Ah!""Why You... why" Lan Xin Yao was blown back by the blast wave, Xuan Yuan Che instinctively leaped up to catch her.She was pale and faint, as if she would lose her breath at any moment."M..."Oh my, what Why are you suddenly so mushy What exactly do you like about me" A blush crept onto her cheeks, and Su Qingying twisted her body in a melodramatic way, holding her face with an air of infinite shyness.

Her heart, brimming with affection, shattered in an instant. Jun Liye couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth and replied honestly, "I like your brazen audacity, I like how you seriously interject with sarcastic remarks..."

"Oh my... huh!" She had originally intended to play up her shyness a little more, but halfway through the sentence, something felt off. Su Qingying's face flushed instantly as she gritted her teeth, "Jun, Li, Ye!"

She really has no redeeming qualities! How dare she act so brazenly in front of the Emperor!

“Whatever you are, whatever your strengths and weaknesses, this king accepts them all with joy.” Jun Liye curved his lips slightly, his blood-red eyes falling upon her jade-like face, blooming like fireworks across the sky, leaving Su Qingying's heart in disarray.

Su Qingying was stunned, blinking blankly at him. Her heart skipped a beat as if it had been gently brushed by a feather, making her feel a sudden flutter.

After a long pause, she snorted arrogantly, deliberately provoking him: "Hmph, you talk as if it were something amazing. Last question. Between me and the world, who would you choose"

"Ying'er! Don't be impertinent!" As soon as these words left his mouth, Su Chengming's expression instantly darkened, and his tone unconsciously became more serious.

As long as one is a high-ranking figure, they all have the ambition to dominate the world. What's more, someone like Jun Li Ye, a child of heaven, would certainly be no exception.

Yinger asking Jun Liye this way, isn't this clearly putting him in an awkward position

In the tense atmosphere where everyone in Dongyue was silent with apprehension, Jun Liye nonchalantly took Su Qingying's hand, which was as soft and boneless as ever. His voice, deep and magnetic, held an undeniable tenderness, "This world, if you want it, as long as I have it, I will give it to you. Even my life can be given up, let alone a mere empire"

"Arli…" Su Qingying froze again, something in her heart was rapidly flooding, bitter, warm, and sweet.

This demon is truly a poison, completely invading her five viscera and six bowels, firmly rooted in her heart, unable to quit, nor wanting to quit.

Tiptoeing, ignoring the people present, Su Qingying immediately gave Jun Liye a hard kiss on the thin lips. "A-Li, I really love you to death!"

Donghua, all civil and military officials: "..."

Whoa, they were dragged through court yesterday morning already, and now this What the heck is this mouthful of dog food about

"Ying'er! You have no manners!" Su Chengming almost fell off his dragon throne from her bold move.

When did his daughter become so... unrestrained!

“Father, I want to marry him. For this life and the next, for eternity. I will not marry anyone else!” Without shying away, Su Qingying took Jun Liye’s hand, her expression earnest. “The Buddha said that after five hundred lifetimes of looking back, one would only meet a chance encounter in this lifetime. To find someone who loves me among all the people in the world is such a blessing.”

Su Chengming was a man who had been through this before. At once, he saw the look in his precious daughter's eyes and Jun Liye's, and he understood everything.

This girl is clearly infatuated with Jun Li Ye.

"Ying'er, do you truly love him Marriage is no child's play." Su Cheng sighed and said earnestly.

“I’m sure, love is something you have to grasp and fight for yourself. What belongs to me, I will never let go!” In my past life, besides Tianyu, I had no other good friends. I was always alone. This life, I finally met a man who likes me, and he loves me just as much. No matter what she says, she will never let go.

"Little girl…" Shangguan Jinghong didn't know what he was thinking, his handsome and alluring face flashed with a hint of complexity.

Hearing Su Qingying's heartfelt words, Su Chengming fell silent. For a long time, so long that Su Qingying thought he would definitely not agree, he finally sighed softly, "Alright! Since it is what you desire, your father has nothing more to say. Prince Regent of Beiling, I agree to betrothing Ying'er to you. However, Ying'er is not yet of marriageable age. If you do not find her unacceptable, stay in Dongyue for half a month, until Ying'er has passed the coming-of-age ceremony, then you may return to your country with her."

"Thank you, Father Emperor, for making this possible." Su Qingying's face lit up with joy, her heart nearly leaping out of her chest. Jun Liye tightly held her hand and bowed respectfully.

Beside her, Su Ziyi pursed his lips and remained silent. The anger he felt towards Jun Liye dissipated the moment he saw the happiness in Su Qingying's eyes.

It's alright, alright. As long as Ying'er is happy, that's all that matters. Besides, no one can stop Jun Liye anyway. Let them be. He can't protect Ying'er for her entire life.

Seeing Su Qingying's joyful expression, Su Chengming knew his choice was right. He nodded and looked at Jun Linyue with a stern face, solemnly saying: "Well, but let me make something clear beforehand, if Ying'er has a bad time after marrying you, and you make her suffer, then don't blame the Dongyue iron cavalry for flattening your Bei Ling territory!"

"Father, rest assured. My heart for Ying'er is as clear as the heavens and bright as the sun and moon. I fear your Dongyue iron cavalry will have no chance to set foot on Bei Ling's soil." Holding Su Qingying's soft hand tightly, Jun Liye said solemnly to Su Chengming.

As long as he's around, he'll never let anyone hurt her in the slightest.

"Good! With the regent's words, I am at ease." Su Chengming nodded in satisfaction and then glanced at Xiao Lüzi, who was standing beside him. "The two of you traveled far to Dongyue, enduring the hardships of travel. Xiao Lüzi, what are you still doing Quickly go down and arrange accommodations for Regent Beiling and Prince Beiling"

Generally speaking, foreign envoys visiting would either stay at a post station or a temporary palace. Su Cheng's move to have Jun Liye reside in the imperial palace clearly meant he wanted Jun Liye and Su Qingying to cultivate their relationship there.

In the Jinluan Hall, everyone was a shrewd individual, let alone Xiao Lüzi who had served him for years. Upon hearing this, he immediately understood and smiled, "Yes, the servant will go and arrange it right away."

Watching Xiao Lüzi's hurried back disappear, Su Qingying and Jun Liye exchanged a glance, both seeing warm smiles in each other's eyes. The hands clasped together tightened their grip slightly.

Thus, Jun Liye settled down in Dongyue. Their engagement news, like a whirlwind, swept across the entire continent, becoming the hottest topic of conversation among the people of the four countries.

Xi Ming Country, Imperial Palace Study.

Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, clad in a radiant yellow qipao robe, sat on his imperial throne, staring at the edict detailing Su Qing Ying and Jun Li Ye's engagement. He tossed it to the ground with agitation, even snapping the jade brush he held in frustration into two pieces.

"Su Qingying, Su Qingying, why is that damned woman everywhere! It's bad enough she disturbs my sleep at night, now she even prevents me from peacefully reviewing my memorials. Truly, a persistent ghost!"

He slammed the broken red writing brush down, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen rubbed his temples with a headache. A nameless irritability surged within him, churning and making him restless.ou can't go in." Ling'er stood outside Zhao Ruqing's bedroom door, stopping Jun Liye who was walking straight towards it. She wouldn't let him step into Zhao Ruqing's room, no matter what he said."I'm...
