The Azure Emperor's city was called Phoenix City, and it was extremely far away from the capital of the Azure Emperor. However, the capital city of the Azure Emperor was the city where the Son of Heaven resided. Phoenix City was a special city in the Azure Emperor Kingdom. Logically speaking, could it be that this world is ruled by a king? However, the city lord of Phoenix City was neither personally conferred by the Blue Judgement King, nor did he have an official and a half position in the imperial court.

However, when the Azure Emperor was first founded, he bestowed the city to a commoner to become the city's lord. This meant that the emperor of the Azure Emperor Kingdom would not be able to occupy Phoenix City for generations.

Thus, the guards of Phoenix City, as well as the commoners, might be Blue Judgement citizens, but this Phoenix City was more like a kingdom within a nation. When Yun Ruo Lu entered the city, she discovered that there was something strange about the city. The soldiers guarding the city were not wearing the clothes worn by the soldiers guarding the other cities. It was another kind of costume.

He was surprised that the Southern Champion Emperor was actually able to tolerate an existence similar to that of a country within a country.

"Looks like the Southern Champion Emperor is rather magnanimous." Yuchi Xuan only said one sentence. It sounded like he was praising the Southern Champion Emperor, but he was actually mocking the Southern Champion Emperor.

Yun Ruo knew that with Yuchi Xuan's personality, he definitely wouldn't allow such a country to exist. If it did, the first thing he would do was to take back the city.

A person with such ambition definitely wouldn't tolerate sand in his eyes.

This was also the difference between Yuchi Xuanluo and the Emperor of Lan. The Emperor of Lan could allow the existence of such a city, but Yuchi Xuan could not.

But, this was also what Yun Ruo Lu found strange, why was it that even though the Azure Emperor could tolerate the existence of such a city, he did not recover it after so long?

"I think the lieutenant has misunderstood." On the road, they had agreed that they couldn't casually make Yuchi Xuan become Emperor Yuchi Xuan, but even more so, they couldn't call him by name.

Naturally, Yun Ruo and her companion were called Yunyou, while Yuchi Xuan was called Yuxuan. As for Scarlet Jade, he was called Wang Chen. If they called him that on the way, they could reduce some of the trouble.

"What do you mean? "Could it be that there's more to this?" Yuchi Xuan was also very curious. Although the Emperor of the Kingdom of Lan was a gentle person when he was young, he wouldn't have built a city in his own country, right? How was this any different from indulging one's country?

"Our Blue Tortoise, the Queen of generations, was chosen from within Phoenix City. The daughter of the Phoenix City Lord, is the Queen of our Blue Tornado, and the son is the City Lord. Normally, the City Lord of Phoenix City, other than his own wife, would marry a few concubines, and the man would stay as the City Lord and the eldest daughter would be the Blue Torch Queen. Even though my royal father's empress has long passed away, she is still the younger sister of the current Phoenix City Master. " Chiyu replied.

"Oh? Doesn't that mean that we are related by blood in Phoenix City? " This made Yuchi Xuan feel a sense of freshness.

Yun Ruo You smirked. 'Isn't this marriage?' In modern times, if a child born from marriage was either a fool or a cripple, how could that be possible? But looking at Scarlet Jade, she was neither a fool nor a cripple. Yun Ruo Lu stared at Chi Chi

The look in Red Jade's eyes was very strange, making her feel strange all over. That was because that look in her eyes made him feel as if she wanted to see through his idiocy. He was shocked by his own thoughts, but immediately smiled and said: "This is impossible, because there is an unwritten rule in the Blue Champion Kingdom, which is that the empress's child cannot become emperor."

"Huh?" Yun Ruo's mouth widened. What kind of rule was this? Doesn't this mean that the empress's child, at most, can only be a prince in Blue Tornado?

Or it could be said that the members of the mayor's family could only travel to the palace for a day at most to have a child with the mayor. Since the child couldn't ascend to the throne, the throne had nothing to do with their family. Yun Ruo Lu felt that the rules of the Azure Emperor were quite strange.

"However, this empress is the only one who can be buried together with the Emperor." Scarlet Jade said again.

Yun Ruo Man didn't say anything as she turned to look at the city. She felt that there was something strange about the city; white cloth was hanging everywhere.

The Old City Lord had temporarily been replaced by the son of the Old City Lord. The Old City Lord seemed rather strange as he only had one son, and he had never married again, so this time, the main purpose of the city was to marry his daughter into the Imperial Palace and take her as his concubine. Unfortunately, he had no choice but to give up on this idea.

Yun Ruo Lu and her group watched a group of people hurriedly rushing past the city, only to see that someone was taking off the white cloth.

It was so strange. The old mayor had only died three days ago, so the white cloth should have been kept for seven days. It was only three days now, yet he sent someone to remove it. As Yun Ruo thought about it, she looked at Chi Yu, but she did not say a single word.

"I didn't expect that the Blue Court didn't have our first statement. The white silk could have been removed in three days." Yuchi Xuan was the first to speak.

"No, there's something wrong with that. According to what I've said, this white silk cannot be removed seven days after a person dies. However, only three days have passed." Chiyu was also puzzled.

Yun Ruo Lu directly asked the person at the side who picked the white silk, what was the reason? She said the other day that the white silk should not have been removed. However, a joyous event was about to happen. The daughter of the old city lord, the long-lost sister of the current city lord had been found and was about to be sent to the imperial palace, waiting for the Crown Prince to return from his visit to Yuchi Kingdom.

As soon as the Crown Prince returned, they would be sure to get married.

For some reason, when Yun Ruo Lu heard that Chiyu was going to get married, she felt a knot in her heart and felt very uncomfortable.

Yuchi Xuan laughed. "I didn't expect you would be marrying the crown prince's consort. I'm really congratulating you …"

Chiyu frowned, she didn't seem happy at all. Yun Ruo Lu could only say, "Congratulations." But these two people spoke very coldly. This made Scarlet Jade not say a word for a long time.

"It's getting late. Let's rest here for the night. The Phoenix Cave is just outside Phoenix City." Scarlet Jade said.

They complained about an inn and asked for three rooms. Fortunately, there weren't many people here, so it was easy to book three rooms. At night, Scarlet Jade changed into a black robe and prepared to leave. However, she met Yun Ruo who was sitting on the rooftop.

"Come with me." He pulled Yun Ruo Lu's hand.

Yun Ruo said leisurely, "Go where?"

"You'll know when you get there." Finished speaking, he pulled Yun Ruo along as he flew towards the residence of the Phoenix City Lord.

Scarlet Jade seemed to be very familiar with this place. When he had to come down, he pointed at all the guards at the door and openly walked in.

"Who is it?" There was a man with delicate features who was about the same height as Yun Ruo Lu. Although he was thin and weak, he had quite a bit of confidence in his words. Scarlet Jade took off the mask on her face. He didn't seem to recognize Scarlet Jade when he saw her.

Chiyu took out a piece of jade and showed it to him. He immediately kneeled down and said, "So it's the Crown Prince."

"Get up." Scarlet Jade said.

"Crown Prince, please sit. I'll get someone to serve tea." Just as he was about to speak, Chi Yu said, "There's no need. I just want to ask about when you had your little sister. If I remember correctly, you shouldn't have a little sister, right?" Chiyu asked.

"No, this commoner had a younger sister. It's just that when I was young, I set off fireworks. This commoner and this commoner's little sister were lost. Now, I've finally found them and brought them back." he said.

"Your sister is so young. Have you grown up? How do you know that woman is your sister? " Chi Yu asked.

"This woman has three red marks on her arm, as does this commoner's sister. This is enough proof." That person spoke openly.

"Alright, now, this prince wants to make a deal with you. This prince knows why you sent your sister to the palace so that you could obtain a guarantee, and the agreement between the emperor of the first generation of the Lan Dang Country and you is that the Six Paths will not invade this city, but when it comes to your generation, it can be considered as the seventh generation. In other words, the Southern Champion can suppress this city at any time. However, the person chosen by the Empress is still someone from this city. I can promise you that when I succeed the throne, this contract will continue, so I do not need you to send my sister to the palace. " Scarlet Jade said.

"Big brother." "Is it the crown prince?" He didn't expect that a woman would walk out from the inner chamber just as Chi Yu finished speaking. This woman didn't have the appearance of a heavenly beauty, but she had an extraordinary temperament to her.

Her body looked very weak, to the point where Yun Ruo Lu felt that she could be blown down at any moment if she were to be blown by a gust of wind. This kind of girl seemed to be born to attract love.

It reminded her of Lin Daiyu in the Dream of the Red Chamber.

Coincidentally, Yun Ruo Lu came to understand that the City Lord of Phoenix City was surnamed Lin.

The woman in front of him was indeed Scarlet Jade's "little sister Lin". She felt that it was a bit funny. Although this woman was weak, her eyes revealed a strange light. Yun Ruo Lu did not know why, but from the first moment she saw her, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

"I ask that Your Highness allow Yue'er to enter the palace. Although Your Highness doesn't want this city, that doesn't mean that the rest of the people in the Southern Champion City don't want it. This city, just this small amount of troops, cannot guarantee its safety, so Yue'er must become the Crown Prince's wife." Her tone was firm.

This caused Scarlet Jade to be unable to utter a single word.

"Since the Crown Prince is here, why don't we not stay in the city? We should just stay at the City Lord's Mansion." The City Lord of Phoenix City said.

Thus, on the second day, they moved into the home of the Phoenix City Lord. So the city lord's name was Lin Feng, and he was the son of the old city lord.

However, when Chiyu told them that she was here to find the amethyst, Lin Feng told them. There were no more amethysts left in the Phoenix Cave, and all of the amethysts were with him.

The only condition for handing the purple crystal to them was naturally to let Scarlet Jade marry his sister. Moreover, it was to immediately marry her.

Initially, Yun Ruo thought that even if she married Lin Yue, she would still be fine, because she looked like she was half dead and could die at any time. Moreover, her child could not succeed the throne, so it was no different from marrying a flower vase by her side. In the future, he could even take a side wife.

Yun Ruo Lu could not think of a reason why Chi Yu would not marry her, so she insisted that she would agree.

However, to Yun Ruo Lu's surprise, Chi Yu smiled and said: "No, I won't marry your little sister."
