Traveling through another world to stir the emperor's heart

The daytime sunlight fills the Xingli Palace, and the palace is still prosperous.

The guards stood in neat rows and the palace maids were busy walking through the hall. Everything was in order.

Feng Qingyue was wearing a dark purple long dress, her steps were light and steady, her face was calm, and her temperament was composed.

She and Jun Lingyuan walked side by side through the magnificent corridor. The guards around them bowed their heads in greeting. Although the atmosphere was a bit depressing, it was full of deterrence that could not be ignored.

"Qingyue, are you really planning to go directly to see the emperor like this?" Jun Lingyuan asked in a low voice, with a hint of teasing and curiosity in his eyes.

Although he knew that Feng Qingyue was a decisive person, he couldn't help but feel puzzled about her decision.

Feng Qingyue didn't turn around, but simply replied: "Since you want to meet him, why beat around the bush? Face Jiang Tianhao directly and ask him about his choice."

Her tone was gentle, yet firm, as if she was ready to face any challenge.

Although Jun Lingyuan knew that she would never change her decision easily, he was still a little worried - after all, the imperial family was so complicated, and it would be difficult for her and her existing power to break Jiang Tianhao's defense.

Soon, they arrived at the imperial study.

The atmosphere in the palace suddenly became heavy. Jiang Tianhao was sitting on the dragon throne with a deep gaze and his fingers tapping on the table, as if he was thinking about something.

The eunuch's voice came from outside the palace: "Your Majesty, the person has been brought here."

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Jun Lingyuan and Feng Qingyue bowed slightly at the same time and saluted respectfully.

Jiang Tianhao raised his head, his eyes first sweeping over Jun Lingyuan, then turning to Feng Qingyue.

Seeing her appear with Jun Lingyuan, a hint of subtle doubt flashed in the emperor's eyes. He obviously did not expect that this woman would come with them.

"Master, what's the matter with you seeing me?" Jiang Tianhao asked in a deep voice, with a hint of inquiry and calmness in his tone.

Feng Qingyue stood beside Jun Lingyuan, her expression still calm and not at all flustered.

She walked forward slowly and stood in front of Jiang Tianhao. Her eyes were as cold as water, and her voice was low but firm: "Your Majesty, I came here today not because the Lord wants to see you, but because I have something to tell Your Majesty."

Jiang Tianhao raised his brows slightly and glanced between Feng Qingyue and Jun Lingyuan, as if he was wondering about her identity.

Facing Feng Qingyue's deep eyes, he felt an elusive aura.

"You?" Jiang Tianhao repeated in a low voice, with a hint of surprise in his tone.

His eyes were fixed on Feng Qingyue again, as if this woman whom he had only met once had finally become clear to him today.

Feng Qingyue remained unmoved. She raised her head slightly, looked directly into Jiang Tianhao's eyes, and her cold voice rang out again: "Yes."

Jiang Tianhao's eyes flashed with complex emotions. He was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke, "Miss, what do you want to see me for?"

Feng Qingyue turned her gaze slightly and looked at Jun Lingyuan, as if she had made a decision: "Lingyuan, could you please leave for a moment?" Her tone was soft, but revealed her unquestionable determination.

Jun Lingyuan was slightly stunned, his eyes moving between Feng Qingyue and Jiang Tianhao, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Seeing that she seemed to have something to talk to Jiang Tianhao alone. Finally, he took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay." After that, he turned and left, leaving the imperial study with a hint of doubt.

Only after Jun Lingyuan's figure disappeared at the door did Feng Qingyue turn her gaze back to Jiang Tianhao.

She gently stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and then slowly spoke, "Your Majesty, I am An Qingyue of Lan State. Everyone calls me a goddess. I'm sure Your Majesty has heard of this. I haven't come here rashly to see you, but I have something important to tell you."

Jiang Tianhao was stunned. He originally had a scrutinizing look in his eyes, but after hearing Feng Qingyue's words, he instantly became extremely shocked.

He stared at her with wide eyes in disbelief, muttering, "You...you are actually the goddess of Lan Country!"

Feng Qingyue smiled slightly and nodded gently: "Indeed, Your Majesty."

She paused for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Through divination, I foresaw a major event that will affect the safety of Xingli Nation—the birth of the Black Blood Cult Saintess."

Jiang Tianhao frowned slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

He had to take Feng Qingyue's words seriously.

Although people have many speculations about her identity as a goddess, once her prophecies are spoken, they are difficult to ignore.

Feng Qingyue saw Jiang Tianhao's hesitation.

"In that case, Your Majesty, why don't you try it yourself?" Her tone was neither hurried nor slow, but full of deep meaning.

Jiang Tianhao's expression changed slightly. After pondering for a moment, he finally asked, "How do I test this?"

At this moment, Feng Qingyue suddenly asked, "I heard that Your Majesty has taken the Black Blood Cult Saint into the palace. Could it be because of the rumored 'Phoenix Fate'?"

Jiang Tianhao frowned slightly, and his eyes unconsciously turned to Feng Qingyue.

Her words were like a sharp sword, hitting the nail on the head, leaving him speechless for a moment.

How could she know that the Saint had entered the palace? But on second thought, she was by the side of the Master of Xuanyuan Pavilion, so it was normal for her to know.

Feng Qingyue noticed his reaction and had already made a prediction in her mind.

She continued, "Legend has it that when the Saint of the Black Blood Cult was born, there was a mysterious prophecy that said she would be able to control the world. Although the leader of the Black Blood Cult deliberately concealed it, there were many people who knew about it." Having said that, Feng Qingyue paused slightly and observed Jiang Tianhao's expression.

A solemn look appeared on Jiang Tianhao's face. He knew very well that this matter concerned the safety of Xingli. If the Black Blood Cult Saint was really as the rumors said, it would definitely bring huge changes to the entire Xingli.

"Since the goddess already knows this, I will not say any more." Jiang Tianhao's voice was low, and a hint of contemplation flashed in his eyes.

"Goddess, you should know that my Xingli royal family only has Princess Huaxing. The queen died young. I only hope that she can live a carefree and true life, free from the turmoil of government affairs."

Feng Qingyue nodded gently, her eyes still cold. "Your Majesty's thoughts, I do not understand. However, if we allow the Saint to enter the palace, I am afraid it is not a wise move. Firstly, the rumors may not be entirely credible; secondly, this Saint is not that Saint."

Your Majesty, do not worry too much, but please think carefully.

After she said this, she bowed deeply, then slowly turned around and walked towards the door of the imperial study.

Jiang Tianhao stared at her back quietly for a moment, then stood up thoughtfully and walked away.

"How did the conversation go?" When Feng Qingyue walked out of the imperial study, Jun Lingyuan couldn't wait to greet her, his eyes full of concern.

Feng Qingyue raised the corner of her mouth slightly, gave him a comforting look, and replied softly: "Don't worry, it's okay."

Although Jun Lingyuan had some doubts, he was relieved to see her confident expression.

However, he still couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did you say to the emperor? Why did you let me leave first?"

Feng Qingyue smiled playfully and blinked: "Secret!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she walked briskly towards the palace gate.

Jun Lingyuan looked at her back, couldn't help but sigh, and followed her helplessly.
