For example, this time, her two cousin brothers insisted on making trouble together, both overtly and covertly.

If she hadn't tried her best to stop them, those two guys would have caused more chaos in Dajin.

In the Lieyun Empire, it was certain that Xiaoyu would be the next emperor after he came out.

Moreover, both the Emperor and his wife were Lin Mengya's strong supporters.

In terms of power in the underworld, she was the Hall Master of the famous Sanjue Hall.

One day, when Lin Mengya was bored and thought about the forces behind her, she found that she was a powerful figure.

She did not need anyone's support to secure her position as the concubine of Princess Yu.

Whether it was Feng Zidie or the Emperor of Dajin, even if they wanted to interfere with her marriage, they could only do nothing about it.

More importantly, she and Long Tianyu were closely attached and they would be loyal to each other to the death.

She knew that this man belonged to her from the inside out.

"They're trying to take him away from me? They'll only end up dead!"

Therefore, even if the Emperor of Dajin and Feng Zidie were up to something behind her back, Lin Mengya was not anxious at all.

She even had a hint of a leisurely attitude.

"I don't want to see him."

At the mention of his father, there was no longer any hesitation in Long Tianyu's eyes.

He stuffed a piece of the chestnut cake into his wife's mouth with the same firmness and gentleness.

"We can't just hide like this. We know his little scheme better than anyone else. If you keep avoiding him, he won't be able to perform this show alone."

In the Imperial Palace, the old schemer, who had just shown weakness to her, had done many things in private.

In order to protect Yinghua, she had secretly sent him away.

Apart from Long Tianyu, only the Emperor's men knew about this matter.

Therefore, a few months ago, Yinghua's servant sent her a message.

It was said that the Emperor's men were secretly looking for Yinghua and trying to bring him back.

Yinghua was young, but Concubine Xian was a clever person.

Over the years she had stayed in the imperial harem, she had seen through the world.

She didn't want anything else but for her son to grow up safely.

Therefore, when the Emperor tried to fool Consort Xian again by promising her that her son would have the position of the Heir Prince, Consort Xian directly pinned the blame on Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu.

Perhaps the Emperor of Dajin would never have imagined that his repeated trick would fail when he used it on Concubine Xian.

In fact, the Imperial Noble Consort did not covet the position of Empress Dowager or make her son the Heir Prince.

However, she did a good relationship with the Emperor, so she had to swallow the insult and humiliation silently.

But now, the Imperial Noble Consort had already seen through that man's true colors. Naturally, she would no longer be bewitched by him.

It was pathetic that in the large Imperial Palace, no one was actually sincere with the Emperor of Dajin.

Lin Mengya could not help but recall Xiaoyu's parents.

Despite the many misunderstandings and hardships they had been through, they treated each other with sincerity without any false display of affection.

The Emperor of Dajin had reaped what he sowed and could not blame anyone else.

Perhaps one day, he would regret his ambitions.

After pondering for a while, Long Tianyu said in a dull voice, "I don't want the throne."

He and his wife had holed up in his Mansion these days not only because they wanted to avoid arousing suspicion, but more importantly, Long Tianyu was resistant to being the emperor.

Lin Mengya looked at him and gave him a gentle smile.

She reached out her delicate hand to smoothen his furrowed brows.

"Are you afraid that I will be aggrieved later?"

Her sweet voice was like honey to Long Tianyu.

He stretched out his arms and held the woman in front of him tightly.

He didn't enjoy power struggles, to begin with. He only wanted to keep the happiness he had right then.

"It doesn't matter if you take the throne or not. If you really don't enjoy being the emperor, you can abdicate in a few years and let your seventh brother take over the burden."

Lin Mengya took off her shoes and hung herself on Long Tianyu.

She gently huddled up in his arms while advising her husband that he should let Long Qinghan take the burden.

However, Long Tianyu shook his head bitterly. He had thought of such a way to shirk his responsibility.

It was just that Qinghan's background and previous achievements were not sufficient.

Even if Long Tianyu retired from the throne, those officials might not obey Qinghan.

The Jin State would not be able to withstand the second episode of torment.

It was true that Ya'er mattered to Long Tianyu the most.

Nevertheless, he could not be so selfish as to set aside the people of the Jin State for his own happiness.

"Hey, silly. Since Long Qinghan's birth mother doesn't have high status, you can grant her a better background. If others say that his achievements aren't enough for him to take the throne, you'll create opportunities where he can reach the standards. It'd be best if his great achievements can jeopardize your position as the emperor. In this way, you'll be able to successfully abdicate, won't you?"

Lin Mengya poked her husband's cheek, and there was a sly look in her big eyes.

"These ancient people are good at everything except their ways of thinking. They are too rigid."

Long Tianyu's eyes lit up. He seemed to have just heard an amazing idea.

"But… but what great achievement should he have? How about this, I'll arrange for Lintian and Lieyun to have a fake fight, and then I'll ask Qinghan to deal with it?"

Lin Mengya nodded. She didn't realize that her cold handsome man, who used to be proud and aloof, had been led astray by her.

But in the next second, she seemed to have thought of something.

"Don't we have a great opportunity right in front of us? As long as we are cautious enough, Long Qinghan will make a great contribution this time."

With a sneaky smile on her face, Lin Mengya whispered her plan into Long Tianyu's ear.

Under the sun, the husband and wife smiled treacherously.

Long Qinghan, who was far away in the Imperial Palace, suddenly felt a chill from head to toe.

Suspicion filled him as he turned around to look at the sunny sky outside.

"It seems that I should wear a cloak when I go back.

"What cold winter snow."

After the couple discussed the plan to let Long Qinghan take over the burden, the problem that troubled Long Tianyu for a long time was solved.

In the Imperial Palace, the Emperor, who had thought that he would be able to control everything, had once again sent his man to summon Long Tianyu.

After LongTianyu left, Lin Mengya, who was guarding alone in the yard, dressed herself up.

That day outside the palace walls, numerous people saw her jumping into Long Tianyu's arms, and then the two of them left.

Since she knew what the Emperor of Dajin was up to, as the heroine of this scandal, she had to show up.

Qinghu, who had officially become a young Duke, leaned against the door frame and grabbed a handful of fried goods from Lin Mengya's room, slowly enjoying them.

"Hey, aren't you afraid that your father-in-law will turn mad if you go over?"

Qinghu always supported whatever Lin Mengya did regardless of everything.

Furthermore, he liked to see his little girl's unwillingness to suffer a loss. That was especially true when she conned those higher-ups. Even he, an observer, felt a burst of delight.

"Why shouldn't I go? He owes me a lot. In the past, I didn't go ask it back because I respected him. Now that he's repeating the same trick, I have to teach him a lesson."

Sitting in front of the mirror, Lin Mengya was a picturesque beauty.

However, a deep grievance was present in her eyes.

Qinghu finally finished eating the last walnut in his hand. He patted his hands and straightened his clothes.

He looked like a refined gentleman, but he was just as cunning as Lin Mengya. He still showed his attitude of watching the fun.

"That's true. Let's go."

Outside the prince's mansion, ostentatious sedan chairs had already been prepared.

Lin Mengya had always kept a low profile when she stirred up trouble. But now, she was finally going to be flamboyant.

In the Imperial Palace, the Emperor of Dajin had no idea that his daughter-in-law, who was eager to get back at him, was already on her way.

At this moment, he wore the look of a loving father while looking at his son in front of him, who had saved him from danger.

Although they were father and son, the way he treated his son was more like a monarch commanding his subject.

He used to think that his son would be the most suitable person to take over his job to rule the country.

But now, he gradually wavered.

Just as his ministers had said, he was still in the prime of his life.

Now, the Nation of Lintian had taken the initiative to establish diplomatic relations with Dajin, and Lieyun seemed to have a close relationship with his this son.

Once those two countries had a good relationship with the Jin State, the war would not break out for at least a few years.

Moreover, the Emperor of Dajin already grasped the most crucial clues about the relic of the Guwei State.

As long as he could find it, the world would belong to him.

When that happened, he would be the lord of the world.

"I have many sons.

"If they all fail to get their jobs done, I can have more sons.

"As long as I possess supreme power, I will be able to obtain everything I want.

"Now, as long as that son of mine marries that stupid woman, I'll be one step closer to my ambition.

"It's just a matter of a woman. As my obedient son, he will definitely not refuse my proposal."

"I refuse."

In front of the Emperor, his son, who was still proud and aloof even in front of him, said those words softly but firmly.

The smile on the Emperor's face froze. "What? He actually dares to refuse me?"

"Yu'er, don't be willful."

In a low voice, the Emperor of Dajin showed his authority as a father.

However, Long Tianyu straightened his back, and there seemed to be a faint sneer on his face.

"I will never marry Feng Zidie. My wife will only be Princess Rongan of Lintian, not anyone else."

Although the Emperor's face darkened, Long Tianyu was no longer afraid.

"Father has truly aged. He used to be the overlord of the world, but he is now just an old man tormented by ambition.

"Since that's the case, I should ask him to give up his position as soon as possible instead of having him continue to act absurdly.

"This will also be the blessing of the people of Dajin."

"Nonsense! You're of noble status. How can Princess Rongan deserve you?"

The Emperor of Dajin glared at his son.

For some unknown reason, there was a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

He felt that he might not be able to control his son anymore.
