usually gentle brows were now filled with a trace of coldness, Rong Yue was radiating an icy aura, completely different from his usual kind and polite demeanor."I cannot comply!" Mo Xuan remained mot..."Ying'er!" Su Zixing supported Zhao Tianyu and appeared behind them, his warm eyes filled with shock.

He stood behind her, silently witnessing the whole process.

In less than three incense sticks' time, she managed to completely turn the tide of the situation. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it no matter what anyone said.

"Brother, are you alright I'm sorry, I'm late." Seeing that the two of them were unharmed, Su Qingying's face finally softened a bit. She hurried over to them.

"Silly girl, as long as you're alright, your elder brother will be at ease." He gently rubbed her head, Su Ziyi was truly proud of her, his eyes held a hint of satisfaction.

Father, did you see Our little darling has grown up. Even without our protection, she can stand on her own two feet.

With a lingering glance at Zhao Tianyu's ghastly pale face, Su Qingying shifted her gaze to him, her brow furrowed with worry. "Tianyu, what's wrong with you"

"It's nothing, just a minor injury, I won't die." Zhao Tianyu shook his head and looked at Jun Liye behind her, saying solemnly, "Jun Liye... no, Emperor Beiling, Nanjiang is willing to surrender to Beiling!"

Su Qingying was stunned, and it took her a long time to react, “No, Tianyu, you…”

"I told you I wasn't cut out to be emperor, and I wouldn't be good at it. The Nanjiang region would only be ruined under my rule, so it's better off in your hands. That way, I can rest assured." Zhao Tianyu smiled, raising an eyebrow before his demeanor shifted. He nestled into Su Ziyi's arms like a timid bird, blushing as he whispered, "Besides, I'm already married to your older brother."

“Really Haha, that’s great! Brother Huang, best wishes for a hundred years of happiness together!” Su Qingying was so surprised they actually made it work, she couldn’t help but smile with her eyes crinkled.

It seems she doesn't have to tie her older brother to her bed after all, haha.

Isn't this a win-win situation

"Yinger!" Su Ziyi's handsome face flushed with agitation, his expression a touch embarrassed.

"Hehehe, Brother Huang is blushing." Su Qingying's eyes were curved with a smile, her smile was very teasing.

Giving her a helpless glare, Su Ziyi turned to Jun Liye and said, "Northern Ridge Emperor, this Dongyue is also willing to surrender!"

"Huh Big Brother, how even you..." What's going on here How come everyone surrendered

Su Ziyi shook his head, chuckled softly, interrupting her, and said lightly, "Ying'er, the emperor brother knows what he's doing. It's just that the world is in a cycle of unification and division. After years of mutual restraint between our four countries, it's time to unify. This is the best situation."

"Ying'er" Jun Liye's eyes flashed, but he didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Su Qingying beside him, asking for her opinion. This proved his care and pampering for Su Qingying.

"Mmm." Su Qingying nodded.

If the Emperor himself doesn't mind, what does she have to worry about

Seeing her agreement, Jun Li's night-dark lips curled up, and she readily agreed, "Okay!"

After the battle of Dongyue Lingtian City, Jun Liye officially became the new emperor of Beiling. Xi Ming, Nanjiang, and Dongyue all surrendered. Jun Liye joined forces with Empress Su Qingying to unify the entire world.

Several days later, Emperor Li Yuan of Beiling offered his entire empire as a dowry and, with a grand procession of thousands of miles of crimson finery, publicly married Su Qingying, crowning her the most favored concubine in the palace!

It was night, Bei Ling Imperial Palace, Fen Ning Palace.

"Ying'er, I finally got to marry you properly." Taking off Su Qingying's phoenix crown and wedding robe, Jun Liye casually tore off his dragon robe, throwing it on the ground, and leaned in.

Within the red, light gauze curtain, figures overlapped, alluring and enchanting.

"Hmm~" Jun Li Ye's thin lips lightly landed a kiss on her shimmering red lips, going all the way down, lingering around her waist, causing Su Qingying's delicate body to tremble uncontrollably.

"Jun Li Ye, you get down here! This time it's my turn on top! I'm going to take back control!"

Then, a fierce woman directly kicked the man who was on top of her with one foot, flipped over and straddled him, aggressively pounced!

Well, she's been held down for long enough, it's time she took control!

Gazing at the mischievous sprite wreaking havoc on his body, Jun Li's eyes softened. He didn't resist, allowing her to bite and nibble at will until after a long while...

"Damn it! Come yourself, I'm exhausted!" A woman collapsed on him, drenched in sweat, so tired she doubted her life.

"Such a teasing little thing!" Her chest heaved slightly as Jun Liye chuckled softly before regaining control, flipping over her and swallowing her whole!

On the bed, the two pairs of youthful silken hair were tightly intertwined, inseparable forever...

One year later.

The Northern Imperial Palace

"Ouch! It's killing me!" Screams of pain echoed from within Phoenix Ning Palace, where Su Qingying writhed in agony.

One after another basin of blood was brought out from inside, the entire Fengning Palace was in a flurry.

"Your Majesty, push, push! The baby is almost here. Just hold on a little longer, take a deep breath and push!" The midwife knelt beside Su Qingying's bed, constantly encouraging her to breathe and exert herself, sweating profusely with worry.

It's been two hours now, but the Empress still hasn't given birth. She's so anxious that she wishes she could give birth herself.

“Get out! All of you, get out! This kills me, I'm done having children! I don't want to have children anymore! Ah!” Her hair, damp with sweat, was disheveled and stuck to her cheeks. Su Qingying was in so much pain that tears were welling up. Her legs kicked out violently as she tried to get out of bed.

"Goodness! Your Majesty, you're almost in labor, you absolutely mustn't get up at this crucial moment, lie down quickly..." Watching the Empress's fierce demeanor, the midwife and all the maids nearly fainted from fright. They scrambled to help her back onto the bed.

Suddenly wiping the sweat from his forehead, all the palace maids and midwives were extremely distraught.

They, the Empress, are really so formidable!

Never played by the rules, delivering her baby, that heart was like a roller coaster, scaring the soul away!

Their Emperor was also extremely doting on the Empress. For many years, he had only favored her. If anything were to happen to her, they would definitely have to go to the underworld to report to the King of Hell!

At this thought, everyone couldn't help but shed a tear for their own hardships.

Oh, life is so difficult!

"Ying'er—" Jun Liye had been anxiously waiting outside the door for two days and two nights. He could wait no longer, so he pushed open the door of Fengning Palace and strode in.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you can't come in, you..." The midwife was startled and hurriedly stood up to block his view, trying to persuade him to leave.

Seeing this lord, the midwife’s heart ached even more.

It's over, another Buddha has arrived, her life will be settled here!

"Get out of my way! I want to stay by Ying'er's side!" Jun Liye strode towards Su Qingying, clutching her icy small hand tightly. Gazing at her pale face, his heart felt as if it had been brutally ripped apart, the pain almost unbearable to breathe. "Ying'er, Ying'er, what happened to you"ently pushed open the side hall door of Su Qingying.The hall was dark, pitch black inside. You couldn't see your hand in front of your face. After shutting the door, it became even more terrifyingly...
