Die, princess, the devil is mine!
Chapter 82 Marriage Letter
Chapter 82 Marriage Letter
After a simple celebration at home, Lin En received Helena's decree summoning him to the palace later in the afternoon.
The female official who came to deliver the imperial edict also specifically stated that Xia, Catherine, Vivian and little Yuli were all on the summons list. The imperial edict did not mention little Yuna, but Lin En added her on his own initiative, and Helena would not have any objection.
After half a day of high-level meetings, it was still unknown to what extent Helena had control over this huge empire. In this regard, Lin En alone could not be of much help, but he could help when she needed to use force.
When Lin En returned to the imperial city with his wife and children, the bloody road he had carved out before had disappeared, and there were no more corpses strewn along the way, but there was still a faint trace of blood in the air. Others might not be able to feel it, but Lin En knew that Xia would definitely notice it, and little Yuna's dog nose might also be able to sense something.
Fortunately, the child had no idea what had happened here before. Even if she smelled something wrong, she would not have thought that her new father had achieved a crazy killing here.
When he saw Helena again, she was no longer the charming princess, but Her Majesty the Queen, dressed in a bright yellow robe and a glittering crown on her head.
There have been empresses in the history of the eight empires, so the princess ascending the throne is not a shocking event. However, in the history of the eight empires, only Helena has ascended the throne after the regicide in the Golden Palace.
Among those present at the time of the regicide, Helena only executed the emperor's close confidants and loyalists, and spared the lives of the princes and princesses. In addition, there were many people in the palace, and Helena did not hide her tracks when she followed Lin En into the Golden Palace, so the cause of the emperor's death and Helena's involvement in it were not hidden.
Of course, it’s not that Helena can’t do it perfectly; that’s exactly what she does on purpose.
She just wanted to let everyone know that the immoral late emperor died from the punishment of her and Lin En, not from natural causes. She was the daughter of a regicide and a father, but she could still rule the empire.
If anyone has any opinions about what she does, they can raise them and see if she can solve the problem or solve the person who raised the problem.
"Lord Lin En, please come sit next to me. My sisters, please take your seats as well."
At this time, in the Golden Palace, apart from Helena and Natasha, there were only a few palace maids. Helena did not act like an emperor, and still called Lin En "Sir" and called his women "Sisters" regardless of their age.
However, she didn't know what to call the two little girls, so she simply let the older sisters who were more familiar with them take care of them. After everyone got to know each other well, she would take good care of these children he raised out of wedlock.
"I feel like your self-proclaimed name sounds too unimpressive. It doesn't have the power of the emperor in my hometown who calls himself 'Zhen', and 'Zhen is the ruler of the world.'"
Following Helena's instructions, Lin En unceremoniously sat on the throne that should have belonged to the emperor, and at the same time expressed his dissatisfaction with the word "this emperor". This sounded very unpleasant. Not only was it too straightforward and without any connotation, but it was also not domineering enough when it was shouted out.
"I'll listen to you. From now on, I'll call myself "Zhen". Come, the first thing I called you here for today is to sign this."
After everyone was seated, Helena quickly asked Natasha to bring over a red book. If it weren't for this thing, she would not have planned to summon Lynn into the palace so hastily.
She still had a myriad of matters to attend to, and military repression wasn't necessary for the time being. Lin En's skills wouldn't be fully realized until the Great Purge in three days' time. Her main concern now was a major diplomatic matter. Upon hearing that Helena had ascended the throne...or rather, declared herself emperor, the Bright Empire envoys, previously unhurried at the embassy, suddenly arrived, demanding that Her Royal Highness Princess Helena, now Her Majesty Queen Helena, fulfill her engagement with the Grand Duke of the Bright Empire.
Although Helena kept dragging her feet on the marriage contract and didn't sign it herself, the engagement was already arranged by her father. The Bright Empire also sent an envoy with sincerity. Now that Helena had recently ascended the throne, she could ignore the matchmaking arranged by the late emperor, but the Bright Empire was not something that the Destiny Empire could toy with or offend.
Even with the support of Linn, the Holy Emperor of Miracles, Helena did not want to break off relations with the Empire of Light without any buffer. After all, the other party had done nothing wrong. Her marriage contract was entirely obtained by her father who had licked the Empire of Light crazily when he was alive, so she could not blame others.
"What is this? A marriage certificate? How can I sign this with you now? Have you asked Vivian and Xia?"
Taking the red book handed over by Natasha, Lin En casually flipped through it and found that it was an unsigned marriage certificate. He was unhappy at the time.
It's not that he doesn't want to marry Helena, but this kind of thing must be based on first come first served. However, he and Xia just made a historic breakthrough today, and almost tricked Vivian into giving him her first kiss. Although there is still no progress on Katherine's side, no matter what, any one of them has made more progress than Helena, so it will be her turn to marry him first.
"We've only signed the marriage certificate, and the wedding won't take place yet. I don't mean to rush ahead, but the Bright Empire can only deal with us with the real marriage certificate... Otherwise, your Helena will have to marry this man. Are you willing to let her do that?"
Afterwards, Helena explained in detail to Lynn and his women about the marriage that had been forced upon her by the late emperor, explaining to them that she did not do so to take advantage of her status as emperor to get ahead, but was forced to do so by the Empire of Light.
If Lin En didn't sign this blank marriage certificate with her, then she would have to sign her name on the marriage certificate submitted by the Bright Empire that already had a signature.
In order to prove the truthfulness of what she said, Helena took out the marriage certificate given to her by the Empire of Light and pushed it to Lin En with both hands.
"Really? Don't worry, I'm here, no one can force you. Even if I don't marry you first, I won't let you marry anyone else... Uh, I think the Grand Duke of the Bright Empire is quite a good match for you. How about you get engaged to him first and fool the Bright Empire people away first?"
While Lin En was muttering to himself, he took the other marriage certificate that Helena handed to him and began to look through it. At first, his eyes were casual, but as he looked at it, his brows furrowed.
After that, Lin En said something that shocked Helena and Natasha. The emperor and the dragon were so shocked that they couldn't swear, and their faces were full of expressions as if they had seen a ghost.
Didn't they agree not to give a woman to him? Why did they change their minds after seeing the marriage certificate? What kind of background did the Grand Duke of the Bright Empire have that he could have the dignified Saint Emperor of Miracles give him such a beautiful woman?
"Don't look at me like that... Don't you recognize these two characters on the marriage certificate? Let me teach you. These are called Chinese characters, the writing system of my hometown. The two characters on the signature are 'Lin' and 'En'. Remember them?"
Lynn's frown relaxed in an instant, and he said with a smile as he looked at Helena, who almost lost color, and Natasha, who almost changed color.
