I should marry the traitor

Chapter 11 Your Majesty, you don’t want anything to happen to your brother, do you?
"Your Majesty, you don't want others to know that you are a woman, do you?"

"Master Dong, please stop talking nonsense."

"Just think of me as talking nonsense, but I still want to speak to your majesty from the bottom of my heart."

Seeing that Li Changge stopped talking and just looked at her silently, Dong Bai didn't mind at all. Her tall figure circled in Fengyi Pavilion and her hands gently rested on Li Changge's shoulders.

"Perhaps His Majesty really has some hidden card."

"Perhaps there is a master of the same level as the innate that is hidden in this palace."

"Perhaps Luoyang City still has some way to resist my army of 100,000 strong men in a short period of time."

"But it doesn't matter. After knowing that Your Majesty is a woman, can these powers really still be used by Your Majesty?"

"Are the officials of the noble families who congratulated Your Majesty on his ascension to the throne in the Golden Palace today really willing to stand with Your Majesty?"

If the premise is really that Li Changge is a woman, Dong Bai's question is indeed very profound.

In Daqian, the status of women is no less than that of men, or it can be said that what divides the upper class is not gender, but bloodline.

Just like Yuan Shao, although she is a girl, as long as the concentration of Xuanniao blood is high enough, no one can shake her position in the family.

But women can be officials but cannot be kings. This is the ancestral rule.

Because anyone who awakens the demon blood will gain powerful strength, but his personality will also be affected, which is what players commonly call darkening.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Miss Mo Chu is young, beautiful and sunny now. After her Xuanniao bloodline is fully awakened in the middle of the game, she will be more dangerous than Dong Bai.

And if Li Changge's plan is followed, Yuan Shao's darkening process will only be faster.

Seeing that Li Changge still didn't speak, Dong Bai blew gently into her ear: "I know that you secretly sent your brother out of the palace. He is the real hope for the revival of Daqian, but the time is too short. Even if he left Luoyang at this time, he should not have run far, right?"

"If I now order the Xiliang Iron Cavalry to search and plunder cities along the way, and to kill all children in their teens, Your Majesty, guess what the chances are that your brother will survive?"

This is why women cannot become emperors. A monster like this that has awakened 90% of its demon blood has already deviated from the concept of human in many ways.

However, unlike the traditional structure of high-level martial arts or immortal cultivation world, population is the most valuable resource of Daqian.

The wild yield of precious medicinal materials is extremely small and they all need to be cultivated artificially. The subsequent production of pills also requires a large number of assembly line talents.

The collection of various types of ores also requires a large population, and smelting metals is time-consuming and labor-intensive. It is impossible to let the masters of a bloodline family do these jobs.

There is also the most basic food. No matter who you are, you need to eat in the end, especially a mixed-race person like Dong Bai, who has a bigger appetite and likes meat. Without enough people, it is impossible to feed him.

Therefore, no matter whether the monarchs of Daqian were incompetent or wise, at least they all claimed to love their people like their own children and would not make particularly outrageous decisions.

Of course, there are exceptions. Daqian once had a empress. In the ten years after the empress's black dragon bloodline awakened, Daqian's population dropped by one third.

Just look at Dong Bai and you will know. She is not joking when she talks about massacring the whole city just to kill the second prince.

"Your Majesty, you don't want anything to happen to your biological brother, do you?"

After saying this, Dong Bai had an expressionless face and walked towards Fengyi Pavilion with light steps, as if she had put on her pants without any reluctance.

One step. Two steps.

Three steps.

"I can confer upon you the title of Grand Master."

"Heh." Dong Bai laughed with some contempt. As expected, she had already caught the handle of this Emperor Fuyi.

"The position of Grand Master has not been conferred for a hundred years. Master Dong should understand the significance of this."

"Heh." Dong Bai still just laughed, then took one step, then two steps.

"The position of Prime Minister, yes."

Faced with Li Changge's further increase in the bet, she finally revealed a smug smile on her face as she turned her back to Li Changge.

Dong Bai, grasped the future.

"Your Majesty, why don't you understand? I am no longer a child. Only children would be forced to make choices, and I... want them all!"

"Whether it's the position of Grand Tutor, Prime Minister or Empress, these are not matters that I can decide on my own. They must be recommended by the court and discussed by all officials. Even if I agree to your request here, what does it matter? Lord Dong has so many requests that even I can't do it."

Low-level lying requires fabricating facts, while high-level lying only involves silence and truth.

Li Changge never fabricated anything. Everything was speculated by Dong Bai himself. All Li Changge could do was remain silent and tell the truth at the right time.

If Emperor Qianling were still alive, he could naturally make the final decision in the court. However, Li Changge had just ascended the throne after all. Even though he showed the qualities of a wise ruler, he lacked control over the court.

What's more, whether it is the position of Grand Tutor, Prime Minister, or the all-important position of Queen, each of them is a major matter that requires a long process, and even the Emperor cannot promise that they will all be successful.

The Grand Tutor and the Prime Minister were able to do it because with 100,000 cavalrymen approaching the city, not only the Emperor but also all the officials in the court had to compromise. At most, they had to haggle for a while before compromising.

But the position of queen is different. In Daqian, bloodline is respected, so it doesn’t matter what the concubine does, but the position of queen is too particular.

First of all, bloodline, to match the black dragon bloodline, must also be the top bloodline in the world, such as the Yuan family's black bird bloodline, the Yang family's white tiger bloodline. Dong Bai, a python-ox hybrid, actually wanted to get involved in the phoenix throne held by these noble families. If Dong Bai's amazing fighting power and other heavy troops were not there, these noble families in Luoyang would tear her apart.

When Li Changge said this, Dong Bai finally stopped and turned around.

She was not stupid, and what Li Changge said was obviously true. Emperor Fuyi had just ascended the throne, and he was not the Emperor Qianling who could make decisions at will. His control over the court was limited, and even if he talked a lot here, it would be in vain if he couldn't do it.

On the contrary, being able to explain these things frankly shows the other party's sincerity and how important his brother is to him.

This is a woman who supports her brother. Dong Bai has already made this judgment about Li Changge in his heart, and at the same time he has a deeper grasp of controlling the emperor.

Even though Mr. Dong's cultural level is not very high, his ambition to be the hen crowing at dawn and to govern the country with a bowed head seems to be within reach.

"Your Majesty, don't you think we can work together?"

"Master Dong, is this a cooperative attitude?"

"They are just some necessary bargaining chips. I think they can all be negotiated. Perhaps it would be better if I could talk to His Majesty about it?"
