From Battle Through the Heavens Simulation to The Great Ruler

Xiao Feng, the regent appointed by the late emperor, became the most powerful figure in the Qing Kingdom, and no one dared to criticize him even if he spent the night in the inner palace.

After the situation in the Qing Kingdom's court stabilized, Xiao Feng handed over the task of supporting the new emperor to Chen Pingping and Fan Jian, while he himself took Si Lili and headed to Northern Qi.

Currently, the more important characters from the original story within the Qing Kingdom have either been subdued by Xiao Feng or sent to be reincarnated. Continuing to stay in the Qing Kingdom to farm world origin points is too inefficient, so it's time for them to wreak havoc on the Northern Qi.

"Da da da……"

A luxuriously decorated eight-horse carriage sped along the wide official road, its black flag fluttering in the wind, with a striking character "Xiao" embroidered in gold thread on its surface.

As they gazed upon the massive city that appeared at the end of the official road, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, who were driving the carriage, gradually slowed down their pace.

It was a magnificent city, even taller than the capital of the Qing Kingdom. It was built with large blocks of bluestone, and the city walls, which were three zhang high, were slightly tilted, exuding an indescribable sense of oppression.

There are many corner towers built on the city wall, and many fully armed soldiers patrol back and forth on them.

The area around the city gate had been cleared out, with no idle people lingering. Only dozens of figures, led by Ku He, the Grand Master of Northern Qi, were waiting at the city gate for the arrival of the Holy Son of the Temple.

Soon the luxurious eight-horse carriage arrived at the city gate and stopped in front of Ku He and his companions.

Once the carriage came to a stop, the heavy curtain was lifted from the inside, and three figures stepped out.

The leading figure, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, a face as handsome as jade, wore a purple-gold robe and held a white jade folding fan. His noble demeanor was indescribable. He was none other than Xiao Feng, the Regent of Southern Qing!

The two figures following behind Xiao Feng were one in black and one in white: Ye Qingmei, wearing a white robe, and Si Lili, wearing a black dress.

"Greetings, Goddess."

Upon seeing Ye Qingmei, the white-haired Ku He's eyes flashed with excitement, and he immediately knelt down before her.

When Ye Qingmei came out of the temple, the first people she saw were Ku He and Xiao En.

At that time, Ku He and Xiao En had run out of ammunition and food and could only eat human flesh to fill their stomachs. So when they saw Ye Qingmei coming out of the temple, they naturally regarded her as a goddess descended to earth.

Moreover, the reason why Ku He was able to break through to the Grandmaster level was because Ye Qingmei gave him a cultivation manual, which made him respect Ye Qingmei very much and even regard her as part of his own faith.

"Alright, alright, get up now!"

Seeing this, Ye Qingmei quickly helped Ku He up and couldn't help but complain, "Why are you still the same as before? You like to kneel down to me all the time. I'm worried that kneeling down to me will shorten your lifespan."

The Northern Qi court officials present looked on with disbelief upon witnessing this scene.

It should be noted that Ku He was the only Grandmaster in Northern Qi and the guardian of the Northern Qi royal family. He held a supreme position in Northern Qi, so it is hard to imagine that he would kneel and kowtow to a girl who was only a teenager.

Chapter 288 The Empress of Northern Qi (First Update, Please Vote)

288.

Xiao Feng's gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on the girl dressed like a village woman.

The girl wasn't particularly outstanding in appearance, but her eyes were exceptionally bright, sparkling like stars.

Judging from the nuclear radiation fluctuations emanating from the girl, her strength should have reached the upper ninth rank.

To possess such strength at such a young age, one could only be the renowned Saintess of Northern Qi, Haitang Duoduo.

Haitang Duoduo is Kuhe's personal disciple. Because of her extremely high talent for cultivation, she is very likely to become the second Grandmaster of Northern Qi, so Kuhe dotes on her very much.

At this moment, Haitang Duoduo was also curiously observing Xiao Feng and Ye Qingmei.

After all, when Haitang Duoduo was learning martial arts from Kuhe, she heard him mention the name Ye Qingmei quite often.

After meeting Haitang Duoduo's gaze, Xiao Feng suddenly asked, feigning confusion, "Little girl, what's your name?"

"This humble woman, Haitang Duoduo, greets Your Highness, the Holy Son."

At Ku He's prompting, Haitang Duoduo quickly stepped out of the crowd and respectfully bowed to Xiao Feng.

"Last night it was rainy and windy, and I couldn't get rid of the remaining wine after a deep sleep. I tried to ask the people behind the curtain, but the crabapples were still the same. Do you know, do you know? They should be green, fat, red and thin."

After reciting Li Qingzhao's "Like a Dream," Xiao Feng smiled and nodded slightly, saying, "Haitang Duoduo is a beautiful name, which I, the Holy Son, greatly admire. Since we are somewhat destined to meet, I will give you this spirit stone as a gift!"

After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he took out a thumb-sized enriched uranium pellet and casually handed it to Haitang Duoduo.

"Thank you, Your Majesty the Holy Son!"

Although Haitang Duoduo had never seen enriched uranium before, she could sense the strong nuclear radiation emanating from the enriched uranium.

If Haitang Duoduo can absorb and refine the energy within, she should be able to break through to the Grandmaster level.

Seeing this, Ku He's eyes flashed with envy, but at the same time he was happy for his precious apprentice.

Judging from the energy fluctuations emitted by that spirit stone, it would be a great tonic even for a grandmaster like Ku He, saving him at least several decades of arduous cultivation.

As expected of the Holy Son of the Temple, even the casual gifts he bestows upon us are priceless treasures that are unimaginable to mortals.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has ordered a banquet to be prepared in the palace. Please follow us to the palace!"

After Ku He finished speaking, he gestured for Xiao Feng and the others to proceed, leading them to the Northern Qi Imperial Palace.

The Northern Qi imperial palace was quite different from the Qing imperial palace. It did not win by its vastness, but rather by its layered structure, which looked beautiful and tranquil.

Led by Ku He and his companions, the group walked through the long corridor, passed by the flowing water beside it, and climbed the long steps, finally arriving at the main hall of the Northern Qi imperial palace.

The imperial guards stood before the palace, swords in hand, their expressions resolute, their auras emanating from them reaching the level of seventh-rank martial artists.

Upon seeing this, the chief eunuch waiting at the door flicked his whisk and called out in a hoarse voice, "His Highness the Holy Son has arrived!"

As the chief eunuch's voice rang out, the heavy main hall doors slowly opened, revealing the lavishly decorated interior to everyone.

The main hall of the Great Qi Imperial Palace was extremely spacious, with expensive glass windows embedded between the double eaves above, allowing sunlight to stream into the inner hall and dispelling the gloomy atmosphere that palaces often had.

Dozens of thick, round pillars stand on either side of the palace, their surfaces entirely black, with dragons coiled into the clouds painted in gold.

Behind the column were layers of curtains, through which one could vaguely see figures swaying slightly.

However, the most eye-catching feature is the straight path connecting to the main hall's gate.

The entire straight road was paved with green jade and covered with a thick blanket. Two pools were also built on both sides of the road.

The pond water was crystal clear, and there were also goldfish of excellent quality swimming slowly, swaying their beautiful big tails.

After passing through that long road, one arrives at the place where the officials of Northern Qi hold their court. Directly in front of them is a high platform upon which sits a golden dragon throne.

A young figure sat on the dragon throne; it was none other than Zhan Doudou, the seventeen-year-old emperor of Northern Qi who had only been in power for two years.

Xiao Feng, who had read the original novel, naturally knew that Zhan Doudou was actually a girl.

If it weren't for the fact that the late emperor of Northern Qi died young and had no son, she wouldn't have had to disguise herself as a man to inherit the throne.

Just as Zhan Doudou was looking at Xiao Feng with curious eyes, he cut to the chase and said, "I never expected that the little emperor of Northern Qi would actually be a woman!"

!!!∑(Дノ)ノ

Upon hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

Although many ministers had already guessed that Zhan Doudou was a woman disguised as a man, with Ku He above them, no one dared to expose this secret in public.

"His Highness is indeed insightful."

Just as the entire court fell into a deathly silence, a clear voice suddenly rang out from behind the beaded curtain behind the dragon throne, followed by a noblewoman dressed in a magnificent phoenix robe walking out from behind the curtain.

The beautiful noblewoman who looked to be only about thirty years old was the true ruler of Northern Qi, Zhan Doudou's birth mother, and the current Empress Dowager of Northern Qi.

"The late emperor passed away early, leaving only us, a widow and her child. In order to maintain the stability of Northern Qi, I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure. I hope Your Highness will forgive my foolishness."

The reason why the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi publicly admitted that Zhan Doudou was a girl was because Ku He could no longer protect them, mother and daughter.

Although the Southern Qing Dynasty announced that Emperor Qing died suddenly from a serious illness, it was obvious to everyone that Xiao Feng was involved in the emperor's death, since he was the biggest beneficiary.

Although the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi did not know the secret that Emperor Qing was a Grandmaster, she could guess that Emperor Qing must have a Grandmaster protecting him.

Since Xiao Feng was able to kill Emperor Qing and become the true ruler of Nanqing under the protection of a Grandmaster, it would naturally be easy for him to kill Zhan Doudou and the others under the protection of Ku He.

Therefore, the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi was already prepared to submit to Xiao Feng.

"Your Majesty is joking. Although it is rare for a woman to become emperor, I, the Holy Son, have seen quite a few, and naturally I will not look down on you because of that."

Xiao Feng stopped mid-sentence and then changed the subject, saying, "Unfortunately, ordinary people are often prejudiced against women, and they probably wouldn't be willing to submit to a woman."

This Holy Son truly does not wish to cause chaos throughout the Northern Qi realm due to a momentary slip of the tongue, thus unnecessarily increasing one's karmic burden.

Since things have come to this, I request that the Empress Dowager bestow the Empress upon my holy son!

"At that time, I, the Holy Son, will prepare a generous dowry for the Empress and arrange ten Grandmasters as her bodyguards, enough to ensure the eternal stability of the Northern Qi dynasty."

"..."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi's expression changed slightly, but she forced a smile and said, "That's excellent!"

Chapter 289. Harry Potter

289.

Because the Empress's marriage was no small matter and required a great deal of preparation, the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi set the wedding date for six months later.

Xiao Feng naturally couldn't wait that long. Although he agreed to get married in six months, it didn't mean he had to wait until six months later to enjoy the Empress.

On the night the two were engaged, Xiao Feng sneaked into the Empress's palace under the cover of night and had a deep and casual conversation with the young Empress.

Only after the exhausted little empress fell into a deep sleep while holding him did Xiao Feng turn his attention to the character attribute panel.
