Reject me, you damn woman.

"That's...natural."

With that, the conversation ended.

The old man and the young boy smiled at each other immediately, and the scene was full of joy.

However, in the end, Lin Ensong's tone was more powerful.

He knew that the biggest and most unstable time bomb within the empire had finally been settled.

The Northern Legion, and their leader, the old but strong blue lion, Reinhardt.

In most storylines, he and his legion will be the proud northern barrier of the Purple Flower.

However, in a few story lines, the Northern Legion will rebel for some reason, which will cause great damage to the empire regardless of whether it is successfully suppressed.

Lynn combined the common points of those story lines, which is that she is alive.

At first he thought that he and the old lion had some secret blood feud, but Lin En soon realized that he was worrying too much.

Even if he announced the father-son relationship between Master Pharaoh and himself in front of Reinhardt, he would be able to laugh it off. Lin En didn't think that the useless him in the original book would provoke this master to the point where he would rebel to get rid of him.

Later, Lynn finally figured it out.

In the original novel, the rebellion in the North, in addition to the condition of being alive, there is another very important premise, that is, the original owner has successfully offended many daughters of destiny and still wants to be the emperor.

What's worse is that given the eldest brother's love for the original owner and Quinn's playful nature, the two might not only not stop it, but might even take the initiative to give up their positions.

Reinhardt did not have a grudge against a useless prince. With the status and position of an old lion, he would not pay any attention to a useless prince. But if that prince was not only useless, but also jumped, loved to jump, and had the possibility of inheriting the throne, then the concept would be different.

The true loyal subjects of the Empire might accept it with a pinch of their noses, the parasites like the Eight Great Families would be delighted, but a tyrant like Reinhard would not allow a piece of trash to ride on his and the North's heads.

Although the North is the northern barrier of Zijinhua, the rich rear of Zijinhua is also an important source of supplies for the North. The two complement each other.

If one fails, the other will suffer.

Therefore, the old lion’s reaction was very heroic: Damn it!

Will he become emperor?

No, I'll do it!

Then, the Demon Bell Tower or any other force hostile to the empire instigated both sides and tragedy occurred.

As for the old lion's trip to the imperial capital, which should not have happened, Lin En guessed most of it.

Most likely, it was because his performance in the academy was so outstanding that Master Farao made a few exaggerated complaints in the letter he sent back to the North. The Duke of the North suddenly got excited and came up with the idea of coming to the academy and the Dragon Blood Festival to meet his "reformed" prince.

This also coincided with the old lion's unusual attitude of not helping when faced with the eight major families' difficulties at the banquet.

As for the other party's "lurking to collect evidence", I bah!

Even Lily... No, even dogs wouldn't believe it!

If Lynn's performance tonight had been a little worse, it would have been uncertain whether Reinhardt's backstab would have stabbed the Queen Mother or Mordiana.

However, Lynn is a result-oriented person, and from a long-term perspective, having Reinhardt in the North will definitely be beneficial to Zijinhua.

The most important thing is that the old lion is very aware of the current situation. Not only did he "admit his mistakes and correct them" and keep Pharaoh Ao as a hostage in the imperial capital, he also very slickly hinted that he was on his side regarding his idea of letting Novi ascend the throne.

For the sake of his own future blessings, Lin En had no choice but to happily collude with the other party.

After this unusual conversation, Lin En was about to go and see if Elena and the others were awake. Reinhardt looked at Lin En's tall and handsome back and pondered for a moment. As if he had made up his mind, he suddenly spoke again and called out to Lin En:

"Your Highness, there is one more thing!"

Lin En turned around helplessly:

"Your Excellency, please speak freely."

"It's about my useless offspring. I wonder if Your Highness..."

The old lion was hesitant for once, but Lin En understood immediately and smiled.

I thought this guy was a monster without any emotions, so this behavior made him seem a little more humane.

As expected, even a man like Reinhardt has a sense of maternal love. Isn't he just pleading for Master Pharaoh, who is being kept as a hostage?

After all, I am Master Pharaoh's adulterous father, and I am also his biological father's brother-in-law who stabbed the same woman. Isn't it my duty to take care of him?

Do I need to beg for mercy?

Who are you looking down on?

"Don't worry, Uncle Reinhardt. I will take care of any request you make."

Lynn waved his hand generously, turned around and left, leaving Reinhardt standing there alone without finishing his words.

In fact, the old lion felt that what he and His Highness Lin En were discussing might not be the same topic.

But never mind. The next step is to ask for instructions from Her Majesty the Empress.

........

After returning to the banquet hall, the Empress Mother and Quinn had indeed left. Elena and Historia had also woken up, and when they saw Lin En, they immediately came up to greet him.

"Student Lin En!"

"Um,"

Lin En walked up to the two of them and asked with a smile:

"How was this banquet? It was quite fulfilling, wasn't it?"

"It's fulfilling! It's so fulfilling! I've even collected a few magic beads from the demon spirits. Now I can finally write something other than my grades when I write to my family!"

Historia's ruby-like eyes sparkled. It was obvious that after a short rest, the princess had recovered her strength. Elena beside her also smiled without saying a word.

Although this banquet was extremely thrilling and the process was full of twists and turns, the overall gains were quite good for everyone.

Historia obtained the material for writing a letter home, and Elena not only met the "amiable" Empress whom she had admired since childhood, but also made new progress in the awakening of her innate abilities.

As for Lin En, his gains were even more significant, including the Heroic Spirit Lily, the Blessing of the Three Gods, and the Dragon Blood Protection of the Queen Mother. Although it was temporary, it was not used when repairing the Holy Test Space, so some of it remained on him. Lin En estimated that it would be no problem to use it two or three times.

The most important thing is that I have established an unbreakable new alliance with Miss Theresa and resolved the hidden crisis in the North.

Today is also a day when the desire to survive is at its peak.

Lin En felt that he had really exhausted himself. It was really difficult to survive so many people who wanted to kill him at any time.

Only after seeing Elena and the other person did I feel truly relaxed. My brain would have exploded if I had used it any more.

However, I always feel like I have forgotten someone.

But there was too much to think about tonight, and Lynn couldn't remember for a moment.

Of course, Lin En didn't know at this time that in addition to these gains, he had another unexpected "gain" that came with Reinhardt's audience with the Empress mother.

.........

Later, around dusk, in another room in the castle.

After a busy day of cleaning up the mess, the empress finally met Reinhardt who was about to leave the imperial capital.

Then, she was slightly surprised by the old lion's straightforward statement.

"What? Lord Reinhardt wants to ask for a marriage between his daughter and the Third Prince?"

Her Majesty the Empress frowned slightly.

Quinn, who was yawning out of boredom, suddenly fell silent and pricked up his ears.

The old lion bowed his head respectfully:

"That's right, Your Majesty. I'm about the same age as His Majesty Lin En, and I've already asked for His Majesty Lin En's opinion."

"What did he say?"

Quinn rushed to say.

“He agreed,”

The old lion added:

"It's very satisfying."

"What a scumbag! How many do you want to have..."

Quinn bit her silver teeth and whispered.

"What did the Second Prince say?"

Reinhardt didn't hear clearly.

"Quinn!"

After dismissing her second daughter, the empress looked at Reinhard again:

"I'm sorry, Lord Reinhardt. My daughter lacks self-discipline. I will discipline her in the future."

"That's fine, but I don't know what your Majesty's response is to my request."

"Of course there is no reason not to agree."

The empress nodded, stretched out her hand, and a piece of contract paper appeared in her hand. She tilted her head slightly, as if in deep thought:

"After all, the Third Prince has no engagement until now,"

"This is a good time to do this."

On the other side, Quinn, who saw the curve of her old mother's lips that she couldn't suppress, suddenly felt that not only Lin En, but she was also the real mother's daughter.

At the same time, I thought about the reactions of the girls around Lin En after they found out that Lin En had forced a marriage contract with someone else and agreed to it.

Quinn couldn't help but shake her head.

Brother Lin, this is a scene that every scumbag has to go through.

Since you have no self-awareness,

Then wish yourself good luck.

Just like that, a marriage contract happily agreed upon by both parents was happily tied to Lin En as an unexpected gain.

.........

At the same time, Lin En, who had just returned to the Eden College dormitory and was going upstairs, sneezed several times for some reason.

Elena and Historia were also tired after a whole night, so they said goodbye to Lin En and went back to their room to rest.

He shook his head and opened the door of the dormitory room.

The moonlight poured in, along with a breeze, ruffling the curtains and making the pages of the book on the desk rustle.

Linn picked up the book, dusted it off, and looked at the cover:

"Basic Analysis of Mind Magic".

It's a pity that the girl who usually sits at the desk flipping through books, and immediately pretends to be disdainful and goes to exercise after I open the door and return to the dormitory, will not be back for the time being.

Lynn shook her head and sat on the bed, looking a little amused.

Miss Theresa is gone, but my reaction is as if she is dead.

Then, his expression slowly hardened.

However, it was only one semester, but it felt like a long time had passed.

It seems that it will take some time to get used to returning to a solitary lifestyle.

Suddenly, Lin En felt a soft, fragrant and delicate body gently pressing against his back.

Then, a pair of soft hands covered his eyes, and a cunning voice was whispered into Lin En's earlobe, along with a warm breath:

"Guess who I am,"

"Oh, this is not something you would do."

"Brother~"

Lin En almost blurted out the words "Miss Theresa" and changed his words in time:

"Novi."
