章 220: Shanmai Empress

Tianshi Xue could not believe what she was hearing. She took a huge gulp of water. "Even if I'm interested, I can't do that! I'm tied here!"

"You can bring Qui with you," said the young emperor. "I have no qualms with that. He'd still be a prince in Shanmai."

"Then I'm an empress?"

"Empress Sister," he shrugged. "It's not an official position, but it will be if you agree."

"What makes you think that Prince Qui is going to come? And that Emperor Yang would let his precious son go into the enemy's territory?"

"Because," said Emperor Guang, "if you agree to come back with me… I'm not going to marry. When I die, you're going to be empress. Now, it would be up to you if you're going to make your husband an emperor, which I don't see happening, by the way."
