Chapter 560 - Pleasing Her Majesty (15) (1/2)

”Really?”

Ming Shu asked as though she really believed him. Junjue was stunned for a moment but he remembered that he had dignity too and nodded his head heavily. ”Yes. If you want to summon Meng Liang as your concubine, you will have to kill me. I will not share you with anyone.”

If she dares to kill ne, I will strangle her.

Ming Shu smiled. ”Since you say so, I will satisfy you.”

Junjue: ”…”

Junjue kept a straight face and sat up straight.

She asked Lianxin to get her writing materials and started writing the imperial decree.

He didn't see what she wrote. Lianxin took the imperial decree and left. After a while, he heard General Meng stammering his thanks.

Is he excited?

”Your Majesty, there is still one more!” Junjue reminded Ming Shu.

”The only position above the royal concubine is the emperor. Do you want to sit on the throne?” Ming Shu glanced at him.

Junjue frowned and pretended as he said, ”I say that if you want to summon General Meng Liang in, you will have to kill me.”

Ming Shu raised her hand and wrote another imperial decree. There were not many words written on it and she seemed to be playing with it.

She stamped her royal stamp on it and threw it at Junjue.

Junjue took the imperial decree. He didn't know what to feel about it. He opened it numbly. She didn't like him anyway…

There were only a few words written on the imperial decree:

Get back to your Xianyu Palace.

Junjue: ”…”

What is this?

Junjue wanted to flare up, but he saw Lianxin signaling at him. He controlled his anger and didn't violate his character profile. He took the imperial decree and left angrily.

”That little demon's temper is bigger than mine,” Ming Shu muttered. She lowered her head and continued settling her booklets.

Lianxin followed Junjue out. She walked with Junjue for a distance. ”Your Highness, Her Majesty didn't summon General Meng Liang into the palace. Please do not worry.”

”What was written on that imperial decree?”

Lianxin thought that everyone would know about this by tomorrow so she didn't hide and just said, ”It was to bestow a wedding on General Meng Liang.”

Junjue's mood got better suddenly. However, he soon realized that something was wrong and went back to Yangxin Hall.

”Why are you back?”

Junjue asked the rest of the people to leave and closed the door of Yangxin Hall. He said, ”Don't you want the military power that is in the Meng family's hand?”

”From what you say, I should let Meng Liang enter the palace?”

Junjue felt stifled. ”I don't mean that.”

”What do you mean then?”

”General Meng only has one son and that is Meng Liang. Meng Liang is a crucial person. You shouldn't bestow a marriage on him so quickly… Haven't you learned about the balancing of powers?”

Ming Shu smiled and shook her head. ”No.”

Junjue: ”…”

”I am not afraid that they will rebel. Hence, military power is not important to me.” Ming Shu's tone was casual. ”If they rebel, that would be best.”

That way, I will have a reason to beat them.

Junjue said in a surprised tone, ”Are you going to ruin the Tian Xia that your mother fought for?”

What the f**k. Is she stupid?

When she talked to Ning Furong that time, he thought that she was just angering her. Now that he thought about it, she was speaking the truth. She was really anticipating their rebellion.

Is there any emperor that looks forward to a revote by his own people?

No!

And he had to woo such an idiot!

He must be an idiot too!

No no no… I am very smart. The crazy person is the idiot.

Ming Shu suddenly reached out and pulled Junjue over. She looked up at him. ”My lovely concubine, have you forgotten that your nation was the one that collapsed. If a revolt happens in this nation, you should be happy.”

”I will not be happy.” Junjue bore the urge to shake her furiously. ”Afterglow is gone. The world now is great the way it is. I don't want the civilians to be harmed again because of war.”

I am such a righteous person.

”Also…” Junjue hesitated. He cautiously approached Ming Shu. ”I like you. I wish for you to remain safe.”

”Do you like me so much that you can forget about our blood feud?”
