Chapter 589 Request
After the group arrived at the palace where the third prince was, Lin Zhao brought a group of mythical beasts into the Blue Duck Secret Realm. He and his brother took their seats according to the seats arranged by the royal family. It was also the first time they saw the current emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty.
However, the emperor's power was almost stripped away, his face looked lifeless, and it was clear that he would not live for many days. The position of the third prince was even within his reach, and the identity of the actual holder of power was almost revealed to all the Qin generals present.
After seeing Lin Zhao, the emperor's eyes lit up uncontrollably, and he uttered the first sentence since attending the banquet: "Is this the first prince that the emperor wants to confer?"
The third prince knew his father too well. Before the emperor could speak, he put his hand on the emperor's shoulder. After the emperor opened his mouth, his voice disappeared.
"Yes, father, this is Prince Rong who is recognized by all the elders of the royal family. The imperial edict has been announced to the world."
After all the elders of the royal family and the imperial edict were brought out and known to the world, the third prince's voice had a hint of warning: "Master Lin is so young, but she can kill a late-stage calamity master. She is also a ninth-level spiritual talisman master who helped our Great Qin win a great victory in the imperial war. She brought General Bai and other generals to our Great Qin. Father, she deserves the title of Prince Rong."
The last bit of hope that the Great Qin Emperor had in mind to take Lin Zhao into his harem also died out. His eyes, which had been dimmed by excessive indulgence, completely lost their light and made no sound anymore.
Even though he was lustful and ignorant, he was not stupid enough to be so arrogant as to include a ninth-level spiritual talisman master who could kill a person in the late stage of tribulation as his harem. Even if the Great Qin Dynasty was the number one super dynasty, he would not have the courage to do so.
Such a young ninth-level talisman master is someone that even the emperor has to treat with courtesy.
With the Third Prince as a substitute for the throne, he dared to speak after knowing Lin Zhao's identity. Even if the powerful people in the royal family of the Great Qin Dynasty did not want him as the emperor, they would not wrong such a young ninth-level talisman master.
Although the Great Qin Emperor knew that he didn't have many days left to live, it didn't mean that he wanted to die quickly.
Although he was honest, the Third Prince still did not give his father any chance to speak. Whether it was rewarding the three armies or conferring titles, it was all done by the Third Prince and the old man behind him.
Lin Zhao detected that the old man's cultivation was probably at least in the late stage of tribulation, and he was probably one of the royal family who were undergoing tribulation. The fact that he was standing behind the third prince showed the current attitude of the royal family.
Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh that if the third prince hadn't cared about the last bit of father-son affection, the emperor wouldn't have been able to sit here.
The Third Prince raised his glass to Lin Zhao and said meaningfully, "Prince Rong has the same name as the emperor in the Zuhuang plane. Perhaps my Great Qin can also have similar blessings as the Zuhuang and rule the country of Zulong."
Lin Zhao's eyebrows moved, and when he met the Third Prince's understanding gaze, he laughed and raised his glass, saying, "Then Lin Zhao wishes the Great Qin a long and prosperous future, and one day, it will unify the Zulong Dynasty."
Their eyes met, and only they could understand what the other was saying.
After the celebration banquet was over and everyone left, Lin Yi and Lin Yu left with Zulong's eunuchs, and Lin Zhao looked at the remaining three princes.
There were only two of them left in the hall.
The third prince stood up and said, "The previous words were spoken by the third prince of Great Qin to Prince Rong of Great Qin. Now, the Lord of Great Qin is speaking to the Emperor Zuhuang."
Lin Zhao was not surprised that the shrewd Third Prince discovered her identity, so she did not stand up.
The status of Emperor Zuhuang is even higher than that of the five lords of Zulong, not to mention that he is facing the ruler of an imperial dynasty.
Of course, she didn't stand up, which actually meant she directly acknowledged the Third Prince's guess.
The third prince’s previous words were only tentative, but now he felt relieved.
He was a little respectful, but still had the dignity of a king. "I heard that Her Majesty Lin Zhao is the daughter of the Ancient Phoenix, and she defeated Ji Wantang in the imperial election to ascend the throne. She is good at swordsmanship. However, in the imperial war, Yu Bai knows that Her Majesty is good at unpredictable spearmanship, and can attract thunder dragons, which is what the ancient dragon clan is good at."
He paused for a moment and said, "What kind of dragon can appear on the body of an ancient phoenix that can defeat the blood phoenix at the same time? Is the ancient phoenix that can defeat the blood phoenix repeatedly really just an ancient phoenix? If not, your majesty's phoenix body can achieve the status of the emperor of the ancestral phoenix. What can a dragon body achieve?"
Finally, the Third Prince bowed and saluted: "The dragon and the phoenix are one, and they are two co-lords. This must be the will of heaven. Great Qin is willing to follow this will and ride on the wind."
Lin Zhao was silent for a moment: "Your Highness, there is no problem with what you said before, but I have no plans for the plane created by Zulong. I came here just to take my brother home and take revenge."
Becoming the Ancestral Phoenix Emperor was more a result of the current situation, and she did not think that the Ancestral Dragon plane needed an outsider like her to be the master. She was quite happy to see the five Ancestral Dragon Lords fighting each other.
The Third Prince neither refuted her nor agreed with her words: "If Your Majesty does not have this idea, you will still be the eternal Prince Rong of our Great Qin. If Your Majesty becomes the Lord of Dragon and Phoenix one day, then Yu Bai hopes that our Great Qin can become the dynasty that Your Majesty trusts the most among the Ancestral Dragons."
Lin Zhao didn't think much of it. She just thought Jiang Yubai thought too highly of her. It was bad enough for her to be the Zuhuang Emperor, not to mention the Dragon and Phoenix Lord. So she smiled and said, "If this day really comes, and I have such a connection with the Great Qin, it should be like this."
Moreover, Lin Zhao felt that even without her, the future of the Qin Dynasty would not be bad as it had such a wise and witty Third Prince.
Jiang Yubai breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Lin Zhao's words.
After leaving the palace, Lin Zhao went straight to the Kong family. After saying goodbye to Kong Nan and Feng Chenlan, she took the opportunity to have a drink with several old acquaintances from the general family.
The others were fine, but Mr. An, who had mocked her before, kept avoiding her gaze after seeing Lin Zhao's true face and knowing her battle record.
Lin Zhao walked over with a smile and patted his shoulder: "It's been a while since we last met. Old man, is your health getting better? Has your cultivation level improved a bit?"
Elder An, who had mercilessly mocked Lin Zhao, almost cried when he was called an old fellow. He said bitterly, "We should thank the prince for not being so ruthless at that time."
After what happened to Lin Zhao, Old An finally understood that he should not underestimate any cultivator. You know, if Lin Zhao had done something unkind and destroyed her dantian, the clan wouldn't be able to do anything to her.
Lin Zhao did not make things difficult for him. In the past, Old An's attitude was just a reflection of the attitude of the clan behind the scenes. Although his words were a bit mean, they would not make Lin Zhao kill him.
After saying goodbye to the generals, Lin Zhao took Cui Qingwan to find her elder brother, second brother and You Shen. After confirming with You Shen that her opportunity to advance and overcome the tribulation was in the spiritual world, she rejected the third prince's request to let her stay in the prince's palace for a few more days, and took everyone straight to the Panlong Tower.
After arriving at Panlong Tower, Lin Zhao asked Minggui to arrange rooms for everyone, and said to Lin Yu and others: "Brother, after I come out of the spirit world this time, we can go home."
Lin Yu nodded: "Okay."
Lin Yi sighed: "Among the three of us, my second brother has always been the worst, but little sister, don't forget that you still have my second brother. Don't push yourself too hard."
Lin Zhao: “…” The eldest brother is okay, but the second brother suddenly became serious at this time, which is really scary.
