"Yes, when can I marry you?" Wen Han nodded. Beneath his calm surface, his emotions were surging.

He wasn't even this nervous when facing Ling Jin.

"Isn't it good for us?" Ling Tian Qing was silent for a while before he asked.

She … She only stayed to help alleviate the cold and wait for the country to settle down. She … He will leave.

Just like having a cold dream, she also had a dream.

She had asked him three times before if he was willing to travel hand in hand with her. She couldn't let go of his dreams.

As for Ling Qing, he could only … Forgetting about the martial arts world.

When he was on track, she would find a chance to leave.

This was because Ling Qing was very clear that Ling Jin would not let this go easily. There would be a day when war would break out, and she hated these battles. She only wanted to wallow in her dreams.

Although... Although she loved being warm and cold, she had never had a hint of desire for such innocent feelings. She had always treated this kind of warmth and cold as her most important family member.

Husband and wife ceremony … Ling Tian Qing did not want to be tied down like that.

What's more, the matter of the bed curtain would make her think of meeting someone with dignity.

This feeling was not good.

"You … You don't want to get married to me? " When Wen Han heard this, his face changed slightly. It was rare for him to show such an expression of joy and anger. This time, even his voice was suppressed, carrying a trace of loneliness and sadness.

"Right now, the most important thing isn't that, it's that you have to stand firm on the throne. As for me …" Ling Tianqing had never told him about her plans. She did not plan to stay here any longer, as she wanted to live in seclusion, away from the palace and the war.

"You also agreed that if I became king, you would be the last." Wen Han grabbed her hand, unable to understand why she didn't want to.

"At least... "Wait until you settle down." Ling Tian let out a sigh. Ever since the last outburst of the Zhuyan Pill, she had already made her decision, "According to the calculations of this world, in another year, next year's spring will be filled with flowers, and it will be almost settled. At that time …" "Let's think about us again."

At that time, she would have nothing to linger for. If she could help her favorite Wen Han settle down, she would leave. Traveling around the world, looking for things you like to do, living freely for yourself …

"I can't wait." Upon seeing her loosen her lips, Wen Han's expression softened.

"Why can't we wait?" Ling Tian Qing sensed the anxiety and unease in his voice and asked immediately.

"I'll give you two months to prepare. Two months later, we'll get married. How about it?" Wen Han didn't want to tell her that he had signed a contract with Ling Chao. When he ascended to the throne, he would have to send her back in three months.

If Wen Han went back on his word and did not comply, Ling Jin would have an excuse to send in troops. Yuan Zheng, who originally had internal conflicts, naturally could not resist it, but because of a woman, he could not let his efforts come to naught …

Wen Han was not sure if he would be able to keep her when the time came, so he could only cook the rice first. There were two ways to obtain the Phoenix Body: one was the body, and the other was the heart.

However, when dragons and phoenixes were compatible, they still had to use the method of marriage. Only by performing the ceremony of husband and wife would they be completely connected to each other, unable to be separated.

"Wen Han, do you want to marry me because you like me or because of the rivers and mountains?" Ling Tian Qing was silent for a while before he turned around and looked at the lotus flower lamp.

Wen Han was slightly stunned as he did not expect Ling Qing, who had been helping him silently, to ask such a sharp question.

"I once asked Lingzhi about this." Seeing that he did not answer immediately, Ling Qing made up her mind. She hated herself more and more for being of the phoenix body. If she was a normal person, how nice would it be?

"How did he answer that?" Wen Han asked.

"I forgot." Ling Tian Qing smiled bitterly, "I forgot."

Of course, Wen Han didn't believe it. With her memory being so good, she could read ten lines at a time, so how could she forget?

"Wen Han, give me some time, until I completely forget about the past and then we can get married, okay?" Ling Qing asked with a lively smile on his face.

When Wen Han heard her words, a trace of love flashed in his eyes. He walked to the side of the desk and said in a low voice, "You don't have to be afraid. I won't hurt you."

Ling Tian Qing stretched out his hands to support his face, looking at him with a smile, not saying a word.

She knew that being warm and cold would not hurt her, nor would it hurt her like Ling Xinyi did.

Available... What he loved was only the Phoenix Body …

If she wasn't a phoenix, would his harem have him?

Outside the Dragon Restaurant, the empress dowager stood outside as she watched a slim and tall woman walk inside.

Zhou Fangyi felt extremely uncomfortable.

The Dragon Restaurant had a type of aura. Using Ling Qing's scientific explanation, this Dragon Pavilion had a mysterious magnetic field. It was not the true dragon and phoenix body. As long as one took a step inside, one would feel an extreme sense of oppression.

Due to the incompatibility between the magnetic field and the human body, those who stepped into the Dragon Tower would feel dizzy and their chests would feel stuffy. Those who felt heavy would experience hallucinations, and their body would become weak, or even die.

This was also the reason why the empress dowager never took a step into the Dragon Tower.

She had been here before Lingxiu was born.

At that time, he had only stepped through the entrance of the Dragon Pavilion before fainting away.

From then on, nightmares haunted her, and she fell ill. Still, the High Monk prayed for her, guarding her bed for forty-nine days, chanting Buddhist scriptures every night before the Empress Mother gradually recovered.

Although Zhou Fangyi was extremely depressed in her heart, she had already adapted to the magnetic field here.

However, she still couldn't step into the spirit spring.

Those dragon eyes were extremely intelligent. Even though she carried the protective talisman given to her by the esteemed monk and empress dowager, she would still be burned by the heat of the water.

The pearl necklace on her hand and the phoenix hairpin on her temples were the treasures that protected Zhou Fangyi's life.

The background of that phoenix tail hairpin was not small. It was just a beauty from the harem. If it wasn't the queen, she wasn't allowed to wear a phoenix hairpin. This was the rule of the heavens.

Ling Xi rubbed the center of his brows, his face filled with exhaustion. He could see the empress dowager standing far away from the Dragon Restaurant as if she was waiting for something.

Ling Xuanxin stopped in her tracks and looked at Mo Yang. "What is the empress dowager doing there?"

Mo Yang had always been by the side of the king, so he didn't know why the empress dowager was outside the Dragon Restaurant.

Blue Jade added, "Reporting to the king, the empress dowager and a few beauties are admiring the flowers outside the palace today, but the handkerchief was suddenly blown away by the wind and landed in the Dragon Restaurant's eye of the wind. Thus, some people were ordered to go in and bring back the handkerchief."

Qing Yu had just changed shifts with Zi Yuan, so she knew what had happened.

"How could an ordinary person enter the Dragon Pavilion? "How laughable, even the empress dowager was confused."

A trace of a cold smile flashed in Ling Lingzhi's eyes. Other than her and his Phoenix Body, the Dragon Restaurant would never accept anyone else.

This was because in this world, there was only one monarch, and only one fated queen.

However, the empress dowager was persistent enough to send Zhou Fangyi to the Dragon Restaurant while he was out of the palace.

Although Ling Zhi knew about the matters of the harem very well, he was too lazy to bother with it. Right now, all he wanted was to make Ling Tian return home clean.

"Earlier on, the Fussy Beauty and the Beauty Sui entered. However, the moment they stepped inside, the Fussy Beauty immediately retreated back to the palace. The Beauty Sui Sui also went pale and immediately called for a doctor." Jadeite said again.

"Who is the empress dowager waiting for now?" Ling Xuanxin looked at the beauties by the empress dowager's side from afar. There were a few other beauties accompanying her, all looking towards the Dragon Restaurant as if waiting for someone.

"This subordinate does not know." Qingyu only saw what happened in front of her, not what happened after.

Ling Lingzhi did not ask any further. She walked towards the Dragon Restaurant with clear steps.

Her Majesty had already waited for nearly half an incense stick of time. There were many steps to the Dragon Restaurant, and they were tall and wide. It would take a lot of time to climb from the first floor to the highest floor.

"Long live the King." When the beauties first saw Ling Jin, they all kneeled down and kowtowed. Each and every one of them nervously wondered if their dressing would attract the king's attention.

"Muhou." Ling Xi ignored the beauties and walked up to the empress dowager. Looking at her, he smiled, trying to reduce the exhaustion on his handsome face.

"Wang'er, you haven't had a good rest in the past few days again?" When the empress dowager saw Ling Ziling, her heart ached. "Look at your poor complexion. Don't overwork yourself. If you harm your body, it'll be the loss of the people of the world."

"Queen Mother, don't worry." Ling Lingcun smiled again. His handsome face was as if he had absorbed the spirit energy of heaven and earth. The sun and moon shone brilliantly, shining brightly. "Oh right, why did Imperial Mother come to the Dragon Restaurant today?"

"This Dowager was enjoying the flowers with all the other beauties today, but she ended up outside the Palace. The wind was too strong, blowing away my favorite handkerchief, and when it blew into my eyes, it landed in the Dragon Pavilion." Her Majesty looked at Ling Zui Ling with a kind smile.

"The empress dowager has ordered someone to notify this son. This son will retrieve it for you." Ling Xuanxin looked into the Dragon Tower and walked inside, intending to get a handkerchief for the empress dowager.

"Wang'er, I've let that beauty Zhou in, and she hasn't come out in the time it takes an incense stick to burn. Have a look and see if she's passed out." Her Majesty hastily called out to him.

"Zhou Fangyi?" Ling Xuanxuan stopped in her tracks as a cold glint flashed across her eyes.

In the time it takes an incense stick to burn … Zhou Fangyi was able to stay inside for so long?

From inside the door of the Dragon Restaurant came the sound of small footsteps. Ling Zui didn't walk further inside and stood by the stairs, quietly waiting.

Zhou Fangyi added another rouge on the rooftop, the peach blossoms powder covering her pale face, and the corners of her eyes were also smeared with the rouge the color of peach blossoms, just like the abnormal skin color of a little queen after taking a Scarlet Pill.

She had learnt enough about Ling Tian Qing's demeanor, including the color and clothes that Ling Tian Qing liked.

Ling Xiang saw a flash of green clothes behind the door, and his heart suddenly tightened.

Ling Qing loved those green clothes the most. When the corner of his clothes fluttered, it gave him the illusion that the little queen was still in the imperial harem, hiding in the Dragon Tower …

A white hand caressed the door of the Dragon Restaurant. The jasper beads on her wrist swayed, leaving a trace of a ripple in Ling Chen's heart.
