A letter sent by the Great Xia Emperor.
Before long, an elderly man with graying hair arrived, his tone cold, This is the third matter! After this, our debts between us will be considered settled.
Yes, Senior, youre right, the Great Xia Emperor replied reluctantly. Originally, he had planned to save this favor for crucial moments in the future, but now he had no choice but to use it.
Alright, what task do you want me to do for you? the elder asked.
The Great Xia Emperors eyes gleamed with malice, Senior, I want you to
After receiving the mission, the elder departed swiftly, heading towards the Great Wu.
In the capital city of the Great Wu, the streets were adorned with lights and decorations, and people were singing and dancing to celebrate the Empresss grand wedding. The Lin Residence was particularly lively because all of Lin Beifans friends had come to attend.
The Saber Saint, Ouyang Badao, walked over with a big sword on his back, laughing heartily, Little brother, I never thought that one day you would be marrying the Empress, the most powerful woman in the world! Well done, youve made us proud, my friend! Haha
Indeed! The Sword Immortal, Shangguan Jianhun, stroked his beard and smiled, When I received this wedding invitation, I couldnt believe it! It wasnt until the news spread outside that I dared to confirm it. I rushed here overnight to join your celebration! Congratulations, my friend!
Spear God, the Night Fragrances master, with a polite nod, said, Congratulations! I wish you a hundred years of happiness with the Empress and an early arrival of noble offspring!
In high spirits due to the joyous occasion, Lin Beifan was all smiles. He clasped his hands and said, Thank you all for coming! However, the wedding is still a few days away. Please stay at the Lin Residence for now, and let me, your younger brother, entertain you!
Is there wine? asked the Knife Saint.
Lin Beifan chuckled, Of course! How much do you want to drink?
The Saber Saint exclaimed, Great! Tonight, well drink and discuss martial arts. We wont leave until were drunk!
Please, everyone!
At this moment, the Great Wus southern expedition army had successfully captured Annan Region of Great Yan, but they were now quarreling over some matters.
Now that weve finally captured Annan, all the generals have worked hard. Its time for a break! So, let me take this battle report back to report to Her Majesty and the Supreme Commander! one of the generals said.
Why should you? Why do you get to go back and celebrate while we stay here?
Exactly! As the commander, you shouldnt stay here. You should let us go back!
No, Ive been craving a cup of wedding wine for half a year now. I must go back and have a drink! Another general insisted.
As the argument grew more intense, they couldnt reach an agreement on who should go back and who should stay.
Everyone argued and refused to yield. These comrades, who had fought side by side in the trenches before, were now ready to stab each other if anyone dared to stop them from going back for the wedding wine.
In the end, they decided to draw lots to determine who would return. The lucky general who drew the lot mounted a high-headed horse and rushed back overnight to celebrate.
After all, they didnt want to miss the grand wedding.
While they were on their way, a luxurious procession entered the capital city, escorted by the army.
A sharp voice announced, The Empress of the Slanted Moon, Ziyue has arrived!
The whole city was in an uproar.
Hey, the Empress of the Slanted Moon Dynasty is here!
I heard that the Ziyue Empress is as beautiful as our own Empress!
No doubt about it. They say that when the Ziyue Empress unveiled her face, you would be hailed as the most beautiful woman of the Slanted Moon!
The two empresses of this era are meeting!
This is a rare opportunity; lets go see!
People rushed to the streets to catch a glimpse of the Ziyue Empress. In the luxurious procession, there was a grand carriage pulled by six magnificent horses. Seated inside was a woman wearing imperial robes.
Although her face was hidden behind the curtains, her graceful posture indicated that she must be an incredibly alluring woman.
This opulent procession went straight to the imperial palace.
Lin Beifan, who had just received the news, was taken aback. He hurried to the palace gate and exclaimed in surprise, Your Majesty, why have you come?
The Ziyue Empress glared at Lin Beifan with displeasure and a hint of jealousy. Youre getting married, cant I come?
Lin Beifan felt extremely awkward. He was about to get married, but the bride wasnt the Ziyue Empress. Now, she had come to visit him. Could it be that she was going to cause trouble at the wedding?
He felt a bit panicked and quickly said, Your Majesty, its not what you think! What I meant was, why didnt you inform me in advance? I just found out, and I wasnt mentally prepared!
The Ziyue Empress waved her hand dismissively, No need to worry about that! Ive already discussed this with that woman. You dont need to concern yourself with it.
Lin Beifans heart was filled with bitterness. How could he not be concerned? Ever since these two empresses got contacted, he had been left out of everything. They never told him anything, leaving him in the dark and feeling uneasy.
Strategist, Ive come this time for a few reasons. First, I received an invitation from that woman. The Slanted Moon owes her a favor, so its only right for us to come. Second, Great Wu is like my second hometown, so I wanted to visit and relax. Third, its also a big surprise for our strategist! the Ziyue Empress said with a smile.
Lin Beifan felt even more bitter; this wasnt a surprise, it was a shock. However, he had no choice but to go along with it.
They then walked into the imperial palace to meet the Empress. This was the second time these two empresses had met. They were both considered the most beautiful women of their time, and being the two most powerful women in the world only added to their charm. Lin Beifan looked from one to the other and couldnt help but feel lucky that he had the opportunity to have the two empresses as his partners.
The Ziyue Empress said solemnly, I am the Ziyue Emperor of the Slanted Moon Dynasty, and I greet Your Majesty of Great Wu.
The Empress raised an eyebrow and, with a playful smile, said, Ziyue, what should you call me?
The Ziyue Empress reluctantly replied, Sister!
The Empress suddenly beamed and said, Ah, little sister, youve come!
The Ziyue Empress felt even more frustrated. She glared at Lin Beifan as if to say, If it werent for this man, would I need to lower my status?
She was determined to settle the score with him later.
Lin Beifan shivered, feeling like the Ziyue Empress was about to hold him accountable for something. Being a man was tough, especially when the woman in question was an empress. The Empress, in particular, made it even tougher.
The Empress said warmly, Little sister, Im very happy that you could attend your big sisters wedding. I promise that I wont forget what I owe you. Lets work together to build a prosperous and happy era, shall we?
The Ziyue Empress finally found some comfort. This trip wasnt in vain after all. She decided to accept her role as the younger sister. Having such an extraordinary big sister to shield her from the storms ahead might not be so bad after all.
