Demon Lord 3

The prince didn't say anything, just a knowing smile. He said he wouldn't cross the line, knowing it was only on paper. Although his expression hinted at his interest in me, I ignored him and simply asked if he wanted to ascend to the throne. He asked how, and I said that after gaining military power, it wasn't enough. He wanted to take the next step. He would adopt the child and then make him the crown prince. The prince was stunned and asked if that was okay. I nodded and said it was perfectly reasonable. He could then pretend something had happened to me, or divorce me, or even falsely claim I was dead. Then, he'd have nothing to do with him anymore, and he'd take his place while I focused on my future affairs. After he divorced his first wife, Faqi received a sum of money, and his concubine Wang's status was also elevated. He also dismissed Faqi's maidservant. I asked him what would happen to the child born to his first wife? He said it was his blood, after all, and he would definitely raise it. Later, if his first wife wanted to visit the child or live here, that was fine. He wouldn't argue with anything. He simply asked if I'd return in the future. I shook my head and said, "Probably not." He felt a little disappointed and asked me why I was doing this. Did I think he was incompetent? I shook my head and said, "No, it's not him. I think he's quite capable, but we're not that close yet. The key is, we're only in name only. How could a strong woman like me possibly be with him?" He looked at me and smiled, as if he understood what I meant. He didn't say anything else, just told me to go back and get some rest, as he had a lot of work to do. That day was also the day of the wedding. After returning to the room, he went to the study, leaving me alone in bed. Looking at his increasingly thin face, I asked him if he'd really lost weight. He said maybe, after a few days of intense work, he'd lost dozens of pounds. Then I actually fell asleep in bed. The next morning, I saw him still busy in the study. I asked him why he was still busy. He said he needed to read some military books and then take stock of the current situation. After all, he was about to take over military power and couldn't afford to be bullied. I smiled, and he asked me how I was doing. "Want breakfast?" I shook my head and said I wasn't going to eat yet. I had to go out and do something. He told me not to go today because he still had some things he needed my help with. I asked him what it was. He told me that he had to go to court today to announce my identity and to ensure the child's adoption. I nodded and finished all those things today. In the court, we were both in a state of fear. Although I knew there would definitely be someone behind me who could support me, I still didn't dare to use them casually. I thought that this was already good enough. Thinking of this, I might feel a little selfish. He was loyal to me. Was it bad for me to treat him like this? But on closer thought, it seemed that his loyalty and loyalty also saw my strengths. What if I didn't have these strengths? He was just a plaything. After all, in the eyes of men like them, women were just playthings. If they were interesting and smart, then perhaps it would be more fun. Today I successfully helped him to ascend to the throne, and adopted his son under my name, and I became his legitimate wife. The next step is to improve the status of that concubine Wang, and let that concubine Wang become a concubine, and then let that child be made the prince. The Queen Mother was reluctant at first, and said that this matter should be discussed later, but she said so without hesitation. I saw that the time was right, and I also helped a few words. The Queen Mother's face looked a little bad. She thought that if the prince was made now, he would definitely have greater ambitions in the future. I understood that the Queen Mother was right, but I couldn't let this happen. Finally, with the joint efforts of the two of us, the child finally became the prince. At that time, the Queen Mother also asked me a question: "New Princess, let me ask you a question. If you have children in the future, will you let your child be the prince?" I shook my head and said no. The Queen Mother asked me if I wanted to harm the child in the future? I shook my head and said no, I don't want to have children, I can marry the prince, and then I will only have this one child. The Queen Mother couldn't understand it, thinking that only by having a child can I gain a firm foothold. I also expressed my attitude and said it very firmly.
