Chapter 1514: Regent

The voice outside the door really was a bit too cute and lovely Zu An felt heat stir within him when he heard it However, he quickly calmed himself down and said, “Please come in”

The door quickly opened A woman dressed in an empress’ splendid attire walked in It was apparent that she had to use her status as the Fiend Empress to convince the h Zu An’s eyes when he saw the Second Empress close the door behind her

The Second Eently, “My status is special, so it would be difficult to avoid gossip if ere seen in the saether”

Zu An nodded to express his understanding of her reasoning However, he thought inwardly, A woht… If you close the door, won’t people be evenwith everything?” he asked curiously The young prince had been chosen as the next Fiend E for the official cere prince was still too little and needed his , so she definitely had to be busy beyond belief

“There are so s to do, so how can it all be done already?” the Second E Her wonderful curves came into full view Then, she ss, it is ive you the cold shoulder”

Her figure swayed back and forth as she walked to a special rhythm Her entire body constantly emanated an irresistible aura of seduction

Zu An felt as if the ki he had finally gotten under control was showing signs of surging randoain He couldn't help but frown Mi Li had previously warned hi others’ cultivation like this, there were also ers That was especially true for someone like Sir Fu, whose ki had been absorbed fro it even more impure

The Second Empress arrived at his side She sat down on a chair as if she had just returned to her own ho it her ho

She maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far The Second Ean to report on so what she had done so far

“You already know that the Second Prince was sent out to defend the Netherworld Seal Apart froainst the late Fiend Eht’s events are matters of rebellion, all of the various forces have reached a compromise that ill not release this to the public and preserve his reputation The first reason is so that we can appease the forces loyal to the Crown Prince, and the second reason is as a way of consoling the Peacock Wise King

“Otherwise, the Crown Prince scheainst the Fiend Emperor and killed his brothers; these are cri of clan eradication,” she continued, her expression turning a bit strange “It is known that the Peacock Wise King's daughter was about to wed the Crown Prince If we really looked into it, she would also end up being involved That is why it is better for everyone if this matter is not dealt with too severely

“Still, I know you and the Crown Prince shared a grudge, so I orried that you would not be too happy That is why I came here to talk to you about it,” the Second Empress continued Her skin was as fair as snow She looked at Zu An with hera pitiful expression that seemed to contain endless affection

Zu An knew that this woain He calmly said, “He’s already dead; I’s as you planned”

The Second Ehed in relief when she heard that She sounded much happier as she continued, “By the way, the Peacock Wise King has been looking for a chance to nullify the contract between his daughter and the crown prince He thought about letting herprince, as that would not be too bad of a choice That way, she would still be the new eht that the young prince really was too young and that it would be unsuitable, so I refused Do you know the real reason I refused, though?”

When he saw her playful expression, Zu An thought, You’re a married woirl soht for a bit, then replied, “There’s no way the other forces would agree to that The Peacock race didn’t contributeprince’s rise to the throne Why would they allow that clan to gain so many benefits?”

The Second Empress revealed a look of surprise She hadn’t expected Zu An’s political intuition to be so sharp However, she shook her head with a s, “That is indeed part of the issue too However, the main reason is because of you”

“Me?” Zu An repeated, now truly stunned

The Second E her full chest onto the small desk to the side She rested her chin on her ar, “It is because I heard that in the past, the Crown Prince made a bet with you, and that the stakes were his Crown Princess Then, sure enough, he lost The Crown Princess is your spoil of war, so how can I overstep otten about that Back then, he had only said that to anger the Golden Cron Prince, and he hadn’t even knoho the Crown Princess was

The carriage outside the capital containing Kong Nanwu’s beautiful and refined figure appeared again in his h This… doesn’t seem to be that bad?
