The empress called her sister, and the goddess was willing to enter the mortal world

Now that they had gotten the result they wanted, the Admiral felt it was time to return to Northview.

"Your Majesty, now that we have settled the matter, when will we set off back to Beijing?"

Emperor Bei Jing turned to look at his wife, as if asking for her opinion.

Staying here won't change anything, it's time to go.

Noticing his mother's loneliness, the prince asked, "Are mother and father missing the goddess?"

When Emperor Bei Jing heard his son speak, he pointed his finger at him angrily and said, "How dare you speak? I asked someone to take you away that day, but you refused. I haven't taught you a lesson yet, and you still dare to stand up."

It's okay now, otherwise Emperor Bei Jing would definitely kick him out.

The prince also knew that his behavior that time had made the two elders very angry, but he really didn't want his mother to be sad, so he said timidly: "Since you are reluctant, then give it a try. Life is only a hundred years long, don't leave any regrets."

The Queen looked at the Prince and seemed to have an idea: "How do we try it?"

"I remember that the Queen Mother gave the Goddess a Phoenix Pendant. Gods do not care about mortal things. Did the Queen Mother see the Goddess wearing this item during the hunt that day?"

The two thought carefully and realized that they could not see clearly because of the table blocking their view that day. Moreover, they did not dare to look directly at the goddess for too long.

Seeing the two of them shook their heads: "No chance to see it."

"I was tricked by the Empress before. I called out the goddess' name and was struck by lightning. You two elders all know that it is taboo to call out the goddess' name. You can try calling out the goddess' name again."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Bei Jing placed his hand on the prince's shoulder and said, "Son, you want to take the throne? Just tell me, what do you think of sending your parents to be chopped to pieces?"

Emperor Bei Jing smiled very gently, but the grip on his shoulder was a little heavy.

The prince endured the pain and said hurriedly: "Father, wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet."

"Hurry up and speak your mind!"

"To be absolutely sure, we still have to ask the Empress for help. See if there is anything else we can promise her. If she gets hit, ask her to help block it."

The strength in their shoulders disappeared, and the two began to think seriously. They looked at each other and decided that this idea was feasible.

The Queen sighed and said, "Your Majesty, what can you wish for to persuade the Empress?"

The other party frowned and said, "The Queen doesn't play by the rules. Let's see what she thinks and act accordingly."

After reaching a consensus, the two went to see the empress the next day to invite her.

Upon hearing his subordinates report that Emperor Bei Jing and his wife wanted to see him, Nan Wanxing asked someone to invite them to the pavilion in the imperial garden.

"finally come."

It was this familiar pavilion again. Emperor Bei Jing suspected that the empress was monitoring them, but he had no evidence.

The empress came over leisurely with tea leaves in her hand: "Emperor Beijing, Empress, what do you want from me?"

Emperor Bei Jing looked at the tea leaves in the Empress's hand and said in his heart, "Here comes the evidence. This guy must be spying on me. This little girl is really going too far."

But he pretended to be very generous: "The weather is nice today, I want to invite the empress to enjoy the scenery together."

The old fox was so roundabout when asking people to do something for him, so she would just play with him.

"This scenery is indeed beautiful. Please try the tea leaves that our people have presented as tribute."

The aroma of tea filled the air, and Emperor Bei Jing took the first sip. The tea from the south tasted really good.

"I wonder which one Emperor Bei Jing likes more, this one or the one you drank last time?"

Emperor Bei Jing's heart skipped a beat. This guy doesn't even want to pretend?

This is her home, he endured it.

Seeing the other person's harmless smile, he couldn't bear it.

He said bluntly: "The Empress is really well-informed. What do you think of this opening?"

Nan Wanxing was very pleased to see Emperor Bei Jing getting angry.

"I don't like the process, I am interested in controlling its root."

"It is more interesting to taste the fruit made by others than to destroy its creator with your own hands."

Emperor Bei Jing looked at the other party's cold eyes with a hint of evil charm and felt a little timid. It was just as the goddess said, this empress was so unruly.

Or just bear with it...

He didn't intend to beat around the bush and said, "I invited the Empress today because I want your help with something."

Nan Wanxing calmly took a sip of tea and did not respond.

Emperor Bei Jing was thick-skinned anyway, and he didn't feel ashamed: "My beloved wife and I want to see the goddess, but we are afraid of offending her, so we would like to ask the empress to protect us."

Nan Wanxing put down the teacup, raised his eyes and asked, "Protect you?"

"Cough cough."

Emperor Bei Jing coughed twice awkwardly: "Yes! That's roughly what I mean. If you have any requests, you can ask for them."

"What request does the Northern Jing Emperor have to meet?"

Emperor Bei Jing covered his mouth with his hand and pretended to cough twice: "The Empress speaks first, I...I will take a look, take a look."

Nan Wanxing did not joke this time, but asked seriously: "What does Emperor Bei Jing think of my reforms?"

Emperor Bei Jing looked at the other party and became serious. He said, "Establishing schools, allowing women to enter the government, and educating children will benefit future generations in the long run."

"I wonder if Beijing Kingdom's financial resources can support such a reform?"

Could it be that the Empress meant...

"Of course I can handle it. If you have anything to say, please speak frankly."

Nan Wanxing looked him in the eye and said, "If Bei Jing is willing to participate in this reform, I am willing to protect you once."

He had also heard a little about the effects of the empress's reforms. Although he was a man, he also thought that the empress's national policy was very brilliant and courageous. However, due to his deep-rooted ideas over the years and the lack of support behind him, he was inevitably hesitant to move forward.

"I agree with your point of view, but I have no one behind me. If something goes wrong..."

That’s right, he wanted to tell the empress that reforms were allowed, but if anything went wrong, she had to resolve it for her.

Nan Wanxing smiled slightly: "The reform issue can be blamed on me."

With no more worries, Emperor Bei Jing said frankly: "I accepted your invitation." He changed the subject: "Isn't it good for you to have the Empress do this?"

Nan Wanxing said with a wicked smile: "The world will be unified sooner or later. If so, why not implement the national policy in advance? After all, the final beneficiary..." She paused and said word by word: "It's all me."

What an arrogant statement! Does she think the world is in her hands?

Emperor Bei Jing clenched his hand on the table into a fist, and the Queen, who was standing by and seeing this, reached out and covered the back of his hand with hers.

"Your Majesty, who can predict what will happen in the future? We must seize the present moment."

Listening to the Queen's words, Emperor Bei Jing's anger subsided a little: "When is the Queen free? Take care of my affairs first."

"Anytime."

She looked at the queen: "Emperor Bei Jing is very lucky to have married a good queen."

The Queen nodded, and Emperor Bei Jing leaned forward to block his view: "She is my wife, you are not allowed to have any dirty thoughts."

Nan Wanxing's pupils dilated slightly. What did he just say?

She gnashed her teeth and said, "Am I a frivolous person? She is still a woman!"
