This is exactly what we wanted. With these elven noble ladies promoting it, won't elven tourists flock to the empire in the future?

Thus, witnessed by many spectators, Ji Xinyu smoothly completed most of the enthronement ceremony procedures and arrived at the last item.

It was also something she added herself.

In short, a luxurious platform will be set up in the square of the Imperial Palace in the capital, where Ji Xinyu will stand and address the entire capital, explaining her governing strategies after ascending the throne.

A complete overhaul is certain. Many of the old rules and regulations set by the Dao Ancestors... especially those old rules that were very suitable ten thousand years ago but are now only a hindrance, have all been abolished by Ji Xinyu.

Secondly, the Tianyun Empire will be fully open, establishing formal diplomatic relations with all major countries, and opening up tourism, trade, and study abroad programs.

In terms of transportation, progress will naturally go hand in hand. In addition to building more ports and opening more shipping routes, the Empire will also have the Allen Federation build a large teleportation array in the Eastern Pavilion and join the international network of the two large teleportation arrays in Shangying Kingdom and Locke City.

From now on, tourists from the Empire, the Federation, and Shangying can visit any of these three countries at any time, as long as they have money. The elves can also use the teleportation array in Locke City, since crossing the Emerald Strait is very easy for them anyway.

As for whether the Tianyun Empire would fully awaken and begin lord expansion after such reforms, none of the major powers were particularly worried.

Unlike the Blue Star in Amelie's previous life, the natural resources of this world are constantly refreshed by the magic cycle, so they can be said to be infinite. There is no resource crisis at all. On the contrary, the land is too big and it is difficult to manage.

Without the need to compete for survival resources, there is naturally no need to wage war against other countries. Moreover, after the battle of Dao Ancestor's Dao Integration, the Tianyun Empire is clearly no longer the strongest in the world.

Therefore, barring unforeseen circumstances, the relationship between the world's major civilized nations should be based on peace and friendship in the future.

After explaining the changes in the Tianyun Empire's foreign policy, Ji Xinyu emphasized her own domestic policy.

Unsurprisingly, it's still the same core concept she preached when she first raised her army.

Wealth and honor should belong to the capable.

The era when birth and bloodline determined everything is over. From now on, the Tianyun Empire will be ruled by talent.

Talented people can live a life of luxury and extravagance, while those without talent, regardless of their family background, will never be given important positions.

Even the emperor was like this.

At the very last moment of her coronation ceremony, Ji Xinyu once again took out her fire-tasseled spear, held it upright beside her, and threw it to the ground with a resounding thud.

"I still stand by what I said... I know that my throne is illegitimate and was seized by force entirely through my own abilities."

"So if one day you think I'm useless, weak, and no longer worthy of being the Empress, then you can try to kill me and take my place."

"Only the talented deserve to enjoy the glory and wealth of the empire."

"And the throne of the empire, naturally, is only worthy of the strongest!"

These words were quite arrogant, but they resonated with many people's admiration for strength, so the people of the capital cheered them on.

For the people of the empire, although it is very difficult to stand out from the crowd with enough talent, at least there is hope of standing out, unlike before when a person's fate was almost predetermined at birth.

Therefore, with almost all the former nobles of the capital already killed, Ji Xinyu, the new empress, actually had a very high reputation among the people.

However, while everyone was immersed in the domineering and generous spirit of the new emperor, only one person noticed that something was amiss.

It was none other than Princess Rin Amamiya, representing the Kingdom of Sakura to attend the ceremony.

"...That's strange."

Sitting in her seat, Amamiya Rin looked around for a while, her brows furrowing slightly.

"My cousin, that scumbag, is clearly quite close to Her Majesty the Empress, so why haven't I seen her today? And Her Majesty's complexion... isn't it a little too radiant? It can't be just excitement, can it?"

While muttering to himself, Tian Gonglin's gaze fell on Ji Xinyu's lecture platform. The design of the platform was somewhat similar to that of a school lectern, with a table about half a person's height blocking the view in front, allowing the speaker to only show their upper body.

Ji Xinyu was like that today. When she stood on the stage to give her speech, no matter which angle you looked from, you could only see her upper body and couldn't see her legs at all.

"That scumbag woman, could she be..."

Amamiya Rin muttered to herself, a bold guess suddenly forming in her mind.

...Thinking about it, it's not impossible. Although this behavior is quite crazy, it seems that no one in the world can punish that scumbag woman right now, right?

"Tch, those two scumbags, they're really playing hard to get!"

After the enthronement ceremony concluded, the spectators naturally left in an orderly fashion.

Under the guidance of the royal guards, the square in front of the palace was cleared away in no time, but Ji Xinyu was still standing on her podium, her hands on the table, looking like she was soaring to the sky.

"Your Majesty, you...?"

After all the spectators had left, a female soldier from the Royal Guard approached and tentatively asked Ji Xinyu for instructions:

"The guests have all left. Your Majesty, would you like to return to the palace to rest?"

"...You may all leave now; this place is none of your concern."

Ji Xinyu kept her hands firmly on the table, her chin twitching slightly, before waving her hand at the guards in a seemingly authoritative tone:

"Go down."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The female guards naturally wouldn't disobey Ji Xinyu's orders, nor were they worried about her safety. They quickly withdrew, and there was no one else in front of the palace.

"Hmm?~~"

Ji Xinyu could no longer hold on and collapsed under the table on the podium, slumping against the pink-haired guy who had been bullying her all day.

"Senior sister, you...you're so mean...This is my enthronement ceremony! How could you do such a thing in such a solemn occasion? You really are a witch!"

"But you're excited too, Junior Sister, aren't you?"

Amelie chuckled:

"Empress, Phoenix Elixir... truly the finest wine in the world..."

"How dare you say that, Senior Sister!"

Ji Xinyu was even more furious. She wanted to fight back, but she had long since run out of strength. She could only repeat the story of the fallen empress at the hands of the witch.

In the blink of an eye, another hour had passed. The queen, completely captivated by the witch, had no strength left and lay languidly on the witch's long, black-stockinged legs.

"...Speaking of which, after I finish things here, are you going back to marry that blonde, twin-tailed, brute-force idiot?"

"uh-huh."

Amelie didn't deny it, and even smiled as she glanced at Ji Xinyu:

"What? Junior sister, are you jealous?"

"What do I have to be jealous of?"

Even though Ji Xinyu couldn't move a single finger, her smile remained frivolous.

"As the Empress of the Empire, I certainly have an Empress... but you absolutely must not make a move on her, Senior Sister. Otherwise, even if I can't beat you, I will still turn against you."

"And also... after you get married, you might be even better... because I always feel that you will be even more charming after becoming a wife."

What? You prefer me as a married woman too?

This time, Emery was completely dumbfounded, and couldn't help but think to herself:

Why are all you women with the surname Ji like this? Actually, you should all be surnamed Cao, right?

Chapter 379 Who spoiled her like this?

Once fully open, the Tianyun Empire will undoubtedly prioritize establishing comprehensive exchanges and cooperation with the Allen Federation.

But Amelie doesn't need to worry about the specific details. Otherwise, what's the point of the top financial groups paying so much money in taxes to support the federal government every year? Isn't that what they do?

So, three days after Ji Xinyu's enthronement ceremony, Amelie returned to the Allen Federation from the Tianyun Empire, carrying her large-breasted, doll-faced white silk body pillow.

“Emerald! You’re finally back! Look at these…”

Upon arriving in Locke City, Amelie was immediately captured by the enthusiastic Julia, leaving Beth, who was somewhat indecisive, behind. But there was nothing she could do, so she tidied up her slightly disheveled clothes and white stockings and went home.

On the other side, Julia kept showing Amelie her various plans.

In order to coax Yulia back first, Emerald promised to marry Yulia after she returned, and asked Yulia to come back first to prepare for the wedding. That's how she managed to coax Yulia back.

Now, nearly a month has passed, and Yulia has really come up with quite a few ideas, many of which are even wildly imaginative... If it weren't for the fact that Ameliete is now very wealthy and powerful, most people really wouldn't be able to satisfy Yulia's ideas.

For example, Yulia felt that the cannons and fireworks used in ordinary weddings were not exciting enough, saying that those explosions with only light effects and no power were too boring... So she planned to gather all the active magic warships of the Allen Federation on the wedding day, and call on dozens of great mages to fire magic cannons and high-level magic into the sky together, that would be spectacular.

For example, Yulia felt that since Amelie was so rich, such a happy event as a wedding should be shared by everyone. So she wanted to book all the hotels in the entire Allen Federation on her wedding day and invite all the people of the Federation to a wedding banquet.

Even more outrageous, Yulia wanted to hold a martial arts tournament at her wedding banquet, with a nice prize for the first place winner, to encourage many strong people to participate and have some fun... Anyway, with Emerald and the Crimson Moon Maid Corps around, she wasn't afraid of killing anyone.

“Honey, you really are…”

Seeing all the preparations and arrangements that Julia was already making, Emerald was speechless.

Sigh, how did the frugal and simple Yulia from the original game become like this? She's completely a spoiled and extravagant little princess! Who spoiled her like this?

"alright."

While thinking that to herself, Emerald smiled indulgently on her face:

“Since you’ve already started preparing, honey, let’s do it your way. It’s not like I can’t do it… Marriage is a major life event, so it’s fine to have fun.”

"Yay! I knew Emerald was the best!"

Julia happily hugged Amelie and showered her with kisses.

Julia's marriage plans were indeed outrageous to ordinary people, but for Emerald, there was nothing she couldn't do, so she went ahead and did it.

As a chosen hero, Yulia has always grown at a very fast pace, and now she is almost as good as Emery.

It's better to continue spoiling Yulia and making her obedient than to let her empathize with the poor and then cause trouble, right?

This is also one of the main reasons why Emerald wants to marry Julia at this time... It's time to completely bind Julia with the shackles of marriage.

Love and marriage, if used well, can be more effective than divine magic in maintaining loyalty. Therefore, Amelie chose to continue to pamper Julia, hoping to keep Julia in a mindset of "let them eat cake" for the rest of her life.

"So...when exactly are we getting married?"

After cuddling and sniffing Amelie for a while, Julia asked in a coquettish voice.

"Let's wait until next spring when it gets warmer."

Without much hesitation, Emery blurted out:

"Honey, you've already planned such a grand wedding, so you should give me some time to prepare properly, right? And since such a grand wedding is going to be a national celebration, it should be broadcast live throughout the entire Federation and even the world, right? So besides making those preparations, I also need to quickly promote a certain new technology."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

 Julia nestled in Amelie's arms and obediently responded.

The new technology that Amelie said she wanted to promote was actually an idea she had long ago, namely the internet technology that had almost revolutionized people's lifestyles in her previous life.

The communication technology in this world is actually quite advanced. Magical communication technology, similar to mobile phones, has long been mature, and there are various magical communication devices. In fact, information transmission based on magic is more stable than electromagnetic waves.

However, this magical communication technology still has a drawback: it can only perform wide-range broadcasts and one-to-one connections, unlike the multi-user interconnection on Earth in Amelie's previous life.

Due to the special nature of magic, the switching technology, which is not difficult for science, has never been broken through in this world. Therefore, technologies like the Internet in Amelie's previous life have never appeared in the Federation... Even though the Federation's newspapers can play projected short videos, they can't even watch a live TV broadcast.

Emery had long wanted to change this, both to enrich her own entertainment, to make more money by monopolizing the internet, and to make it easier to control intelligence and guide public opinion.

However, solving the technical problems is not easy.

Suzuran could perfectly solve this problem, but Emerald never intended to make Suzuran's existence and technology public and commercial. So currently, only people close to her can use Suzuran, and the plan to promote internet technology has been postponed until now.

It wasn't until the old man Langdon's biotechnology and the divine power of the God of New Life collided and sparked a synergy, and the Sister Legion's technology, capable of mass-producing mages, came into existence, that Amelie once again had the idea of ​​popularizing the internet in this world.

The technical solution is simple: since it's difficult to create magical devices with functions similar to switches and servers due to the special nature of magic, we can use magicians instead, and build a network by having a large number of magicians act as nodes.

Having ordinary mages do this would definitely cause all sorts of problems, and it would be difficult to guarantee the loyalty of ordinary mages without cruel means, but using a mass-produced army of sisters would solve the problem.

Previously, in order to prevent the Dao Ancestor from merging with the Dao, Emerald spent a lot of resources to create more than 100,000 Crimson Moon Sisters. Now that the mission is completed, it would be a waste to just keep these Crimson Moon Sisters at home as vases. It's a good time to arrange new jobs for them.

Each of the Crimson Moon sisters possesses the level of an elven mage, and their power originates from the same source, making it entirely possible for them to cultivate mind magic together and form a powerful mental network.

Afterwards, each of the Crimson Moon sisters will be equipped with a new type of magic device that can convert mental information and general magic information in real time. Then, these Crimson Moon sisters can completely transform into human base stations to provide network services to people.

Wherever there is a sister named Himezuki in the world, she will be covered by Emerald's network.

Emery has never stopped researching related technologies, and now that she has allocated some resources to it, the results have come out quickly.

While it's still impossible to connect everyone's communication magic devices to the internet like on Earth in the past, each Scarlet Moon Sister can already function as a multi-functional humanoid network terminal, providing services such as communication, live streaming, and playing some simple online games.

After some consideration, based on the current network performance of the Scarlet Moon sisters, Amelie divided them into two groups.

A large portion of these were deployed in public areas throughout the Federation, such as restaurants, cafes, bars, and other entertainment venues. Just like the short dramas that initially promoted Yulia, they allowed Sister Scarlet Moon to replace the projection magic device in these places and provide live streaming services to the public... much like the TV girls in restaurants and bars on Earth in the 80s.

Another small portion were all registered under the Blue Star Security Company, and were hired by the wealthy and powerful of the Allen Federation at high prices. They moved into various mansions to become the private network administrators of the wealthy and powerful, providing them with various network services comparable to those of Blue Star desktop computers.

There's no need to worry about the Scarlet Moon girls, who are employed by the powerful and wealthy, being bullied. After all, everyone knows who their backers are. In fact, the Scarlet Moon girls basically live like young ladies in their employers' homes, with dedicated maids to serve them.
