Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Upon seeing Lu Chen, Xuan Yuan Yun Qi felt incredibly nervous.

She still remembered her initial impression of Lu Chen. She thought he was just an ordinary prince, a lecherous man. Even though she knew he was the chosen one, she still didn't treat him well.

But as time went by and she spent more and more time with Lu Chen, she realized that Lu Chen was not just a womanizer.

Now, all she feels in front of Lu Chen is pressure. Even when Lu Chen is smiling, she can sense the imperial majesty in his smile.

Upon entering the imperial study, Xuan Yuan Yunqi immediately knelt down and said, "Your subordinate greets Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty!"

Lu Chen said with a smile, "Yun Qi, how many times have I told you, we don't need to be so polite when we meet alone. Get up."

Xuan Yuan Yunqi immediately stood up. "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then Xuan Yuan Yunqi said directly, "Your Majesty, I wish to march south and attack the Great Qian!"

Lu Chen smiled faintly. Just as he had thought, he knew that Xuan Yuan Yunqi had come to him to participate in this battle.

Lu Chen said, "Yun Qi, you are now the commander of the Yan City Guard. You are responsible for protecting the safety of the entire Yan City. If you, as the commander of the Guard, leave Yan City, who will protect it?"

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xuan Yuan Yunqi was taken aback. Lu Chen's words clearly indicated that he did not want her to go south, otherwise he would not have said that.

Her position as commander of the Imperial Guard was not actually that important. Lu Chen had many generals under his command, and many of them were capable of serving as commander of the Imperial Guard.

If Lu Chen wanted to change the commander of the Imperial Guard, he could do so at any time; it didn't have to be her who became the commander.

Although she felt that this time it might not work out, the thought that this might be the last battle before the unification of the world made Xuan Yuan Yunqi determined to try again no matter what.

Then Xuan Yuan Yunqi said, "His Majesty has many capable people under his command, and there must be someone more suitable than me for the position of commander of the Imperial Guard."

Upon hearing Xuan Yuan Yunqi's words, Lu Chen smiled and said, "Really? How come I didn't know?"

"Aside from your brother and you, I really haven't found anyone else suitable to be the commander of the Imperial Guard."

"The Imperial Guard requires absolute loyalty, and the commander of the Imperial Guard must be absolutely loyal to me. Your Xuanyuan family is absolutely loyal to me, so no one is more suitable to be the commander of the Imperial Guard than someone from the Xuanyuan family."

This……

After hearing what Lu Chen said, Xuan Yuan Yunqi thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

The Imperial Guard protected the entire city of Yancheng and Yanjing, protected the emperor, and protected the emperor's wives, concubines, and children. They were the core of power in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

For the emperor, it was natural to choose the person he trusted most to be the commander of the Imperial Guard. Throughout history, there have been many instances of Imperial Guard commanders rebelling.

There have been many changes of the throne, and the commander of the royal guard has always been a key position.

Thinking about this, Xuan Yuan Yunqi felt even more hopeless about going south.

Xuan Yuan Yunqi suddenly remembered her brother's words, but she hesitated. After a while, she stammered, "Your Majesty, I know a suitable candidate, but I can only tell you tonight."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen burst out laughing.

Xuan Yuan Yunqi's expression was somewhat stiff. Clearly, this was not her intention; someone must have taught her.

Who else could it be? The only person Lu Chen could think of was Xuan Yuan Chen. Xuan Yuan Chao Ge was currently guarding the old capital of Da Xia, so the only one who could fool Xuan Yuan Yun Qi was Xuan Yuan Chen, her older brother.

Lu Chen then said, "Alright, you can go back to the palace tonight. I'll come to your place tonight and hear what kind of people you've recommended to me."

Although Xuan Yuan Yunqi has not yet been made a concubine, she still has a palace in the palace. Any woman who catches Lu Chen's eye, even if she does not live in the palace, will definitely have a room for her.

Seeing that Lu Chen had agreed, Xuan Yuan Yunqi quickly expressed her gratitude, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

"Okay, sure." Lu Chen nodded slightly.

Xuan Yuan Yunqi then left the imperial study with a blank mind. She never expected that she would actually use the method her older brother had suggested.

Am I really going to... tonight?

Xuan Yuan Yunqi quickly stopped herself from thinking any further. Since the words had already been spoken, there was no turning back, so she could only keep going.

With this in mind, Xuan Yuan Yunqi made up her mind that she must launch a southern expedition!

Watching Xuan Yuan Yunqi's retreating figure, Lu Chen smiled slightly. He had actually thought about having Xuan Yuan Yunqi go south with him long ago. He had even talked about it with Xuan Yuan Chen and asked him how Xuan Yuan Yunqi was doing with her military strategy studies. Xuan Yuan Chen couldn't possibly not know his thoughts. Xuan Yuan Chen really knows how to trick his sister.

at the same time.

Daqian Dynasty.

After the emperor passed away, every household in the capital of the Great Qian Dynasty hung white cloths, and the entire street lost its former prosperity. There were hardly any people on the street, making it seem extremely desolate.

The scene inside the palace was similar; Liu Qingqiu was dressed in white mourning clothes, standing guard in front of the emperor's coffin.

The white mourning clothes clung tightly to Liu Qingqiu's body, perfectly showcasing her voluptuous figure. She was fleshy yet beautiful, making it clear at a glance that her body was exceptionally supple.

At that moment, a bell rang, and then a black figure appeared behind Liu Qingqiu.

"That's interesting. The Emperor Yue always suspected that there were cultivators from other worlds in the Great Qian Dynasty. I didn't take it seriously at first, but I didn't expect there to actually be a cultivator from the advanced cultivation world."

"However, judging from your condition, you don't seem to be the real person descending."

Hearing this voice, Liu Qingqiu was not surprised. Even without turning around, she had already guessed who was speaking to her.

She already knew about what happened in Dayue, and she also knew some of the movements of the barbarian goddess.

At this moment, Liu Qingqiu said without turning her head, "Why is the goddess of the barbarians coming to the Great Qian instead of staying in the barbarian tribe?"

Mu Yunxi said with a smile, "I have heard that the Empress of Daqian is very beautiful and has a face that can bewitch all men. I was curious and decided to come to Daqian to see for myself."

Liu Qingqiu said calmly, "The plague in the Great Qian Dynasty is still raging. Goddess, you must be careful."

Mu Yunxi said calmly, "The plague in this world cannot harm me."

Liu Qingqiu turned around at this moment, looked at Mu Yunxi who was dressed in a purple dress and wearing a purple face mask, and continued, "Speak, what brings you to me?"

Mu Yunxi said, "I presume the Empress already knows what happened in Dayue?"

"Not only did Dayue lose, but even the Yue Emperor was imprisoned in the Golden Palace by the Xia Emperor and played with every day. She was even taken back to Yancheng and imprisoned there."

"Poor Emperor Yue, who knows how much he has been tortured to death."

"For an emperor of such a mighty dynasty to meet such an end is truly lamentable." (End of Chapter)
