In response to the empress dowager's questioning, the emperor stood up with a prince in each hand, strode up to her, and reprimanded her with confidence.

"When the demons were wreaking havoc on the world, none of the true royal descendants of the Li family dared to stand up and resist. Only I, the Regent, Li Xuan, was sent down to earth to shoulder the heavy responsibility of subduing the demons and protecting the Xia Kingdom."

"You, the Queen Mother, have been living a life of luxury in the deep palace. I'm afraid you don't even know that 70% to 80% of the people outside the capital of Xia have died. What qualifications do you have to rule the world for the Li family?"

The Queen Mother was choked by the scolding.

She did plan to support other princes to ascend the throne and rule the country from behind the scenes.

Now it is obvious that he lacks confidence.

I never expected that the stupid and barbaric emperor two years ago would suddenly become wise, and his words and actions would reveal the imperial majesty.

The emperor continued, "I am the divine beast of the White Emperor, sent down to earth with the mission of heaven to reproduce and thrive in the human world. My three thousand children will be the pillars of the human world in the future, able to defend the borders, expand the territory, and suppress demons and monsters."

"In the future, their marriages with mortals can strengthen the bones of their offspring and benefit all people. From now on, the Xia Kingdom will no longer belong to the Li family, but to all people."

After saying that, he randomly picked a prince to step out of the line.

"Show your skills to your royal grandmother."

"Yes, father!" The little prince, who was over one year old, stepped suddenly on the ground, and the blue bricks under his feet cracked in an instant and split into two.

It is enough to show that he is young but extremely strong.

It is obvious that he inherited the blood of the Taotie beast and was born with supernatural powers.

When the Queen Mother saw this scene, her heart was shocked. These three thousand child prodigies were the emperor's confidence. They were so powerful when they were young. When they grow up, won't they be as strong as mountains?

I can't compete with him, and neither can those incompetent princes.

The emperor asked her coldly, "Queen Mother, among all of you Li's descendants, who is as powerful as my son?"

The Queen Mother was speechless and prepared to pretend to be sick, saying: "I have a dizzy spell, I want to go back to the palace to rest."

She wanted to make other plans and take it step by step.

As soon as she turned around, the emperor gave her a stern warning, "Empress Dowager, if you don't cause any more trouble, I can still respect you and let you live out your life in the harem. If you don't behave yourself and still want to interfere in government affairs, I will drive you out of the palace and demote you to a commoner!"

When the Queen Mother heard this warning, she fainted from anger.

"Someone, carry the Queen Mother out!"

"Yes!"

Several eunuchs rushed forward and carried the person away.

After the emperor finished his family dinner, he summoned the ministers of rites, personnel, and works to discuss the rules of ceremony for celebrating the regent's wedding tomorrow.

"Tomorrow the Regent will bring the Princess to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices to the gods and invite them to come down to watch the ceremony. You must make it a grand ceremony and not be careless. The wedding ceremony must be no less formal than the wedding ceremony of the Emperor and Empress."

Hearing that the regent would invite the gods to descend to earth, the officials were all excited and responded loudly, "Yes!"

Then collaborate immediately.

The Imperial Guards immediately decorated the Imperial Palace and the Temple of Heaven with lights and decorations overnight and cleaned it spotlessly.

Pei Xinyi's carriage caught up with the official, and she used her identity as a county lord and one thousand taels of silver to settle the crime of Li Xuan stealing the carriage.

But Li Xuan was never found.

She waited in the suburbs until dark, but still didn't want to go home.

Caiyun advised: "County Lady, go back. Even if you sympathize with Li Xuan, he won't appreciate your kindness."

Pei Xinyi said: "I am worried that he will be forcibly taken as a husband by that peasant girl."

"Could it be that the county lady has taken a fancy to him?" Caiyun asked speculatively.

"No way, I just..."

Before Pei Xinyi finished speaking, she suddenly saw a monk coming out of the woods.

Walk straight towards her.

"Amitabha, female donor, are you looking for someone?"
