Chapter 223 Compensation Is Meaningless

"There is nothing wrong with the relationship, neither good nor bad." Jiang Yi said in a calmer tone, "It's just that something happened to him when he was young, and his health has been declining over the years. After I took over the power of regent, he is still a little different from before. Same."

Yan Li pondered for a moment: "Do the four princes sincerely respect you?"

"Maybe it's sincere, maybe it's selfish." Jiang Yi raised the corner of her mouth slightly, with a hint of ridicule, "But generally speaking, there is nothing wrong with her for the time being."

Yan Lizan asked: "Will they agree to the emperor passing the throne to a princess?"

"It's not a legend." Jiang Yi corrected her calmly, "Making you the eldest princess is just the first step. Later, I will help you take power step by step. You have to seize the throne yourself."

Yan Li raised an eyebrow: "Robbing it yourself?"

This statement is quite interesting.

Jiang Yi nodded: "Those people will be afraid of the power they have obtained through their own efforts, and naturally they will not dare to express their dissatisfaction due to fear."

Yan Li's eyebrows moved slightly, and she suddenly became interested.

The identity of the Empress of the Southern Kingdom is her destiny that has been determined since she was a child, and it is also her life's responsibility. Everything has been prepared for her by her father, queen and mother.

She is only responsible for learning various skills and learning the emperor's mental skills.

Regardless of whether the royal brothers in the Southern Kingdom truly admired her or had their own agenda, at least on the surface, no one did anything involving intrigues or intrigues.

So she really felt a little strange that she needed to take action to seize the throne by herself.

Yan Li turned around and walked to the brocade couch and sat down. Yan Li frowned slightly and remained silent for a long time.

I have to say that Jiang Yi was not the queen for nothing, and her words really moved her.

Not a desire for power, but because of responsibility.

She has been taught since childhood that an emperor should take the common people of the world as his own responsibility.

Although the Jin Kingdom is not her country yet, and the people of the Jin Kingdom are not her people, she and Mu Cang already have the intention of unifying the world, and the Jin Kingdom will be her territory sooner or later.

She is willing to do her part in advance for the future territory and people.

The most hotly debated aspect of the South is the relative equality of men and women.

Xihe has always felt that women in the world should be like this. Even if they are weaker than men, the weakness is only in natural physical strength.

Women do not pay less than men in front of their husbands, families, and children, and their contributions are no less than men. Tianlai Novel Network

Women can inherit the throne, serve as officials, and lead troops on the battlefield without having to disguise themselves as men.

After learning about the system of male superiority and female inferiority in other countries, although she did not agree with it, she also respected it. After all, it was the matter of other countries and she could not interfere.

But if Jin really didn't treat women as human beings, it would be outrageous.

"Yan Li." Jiang Yi sat over and held Yan Li's hand, "It's not that I didn't want to come over to see you these years. Before falling asleep every night, as soon as I closed my eyes, I couldn't help but think about how my daughter was doing? Yes. Were you not harassed or harassed? Did you not have enough to eat or wear warm clothes?”

"But marrying the Jin State is not only my own business, but also the agreement with the Emperor of Mu. There is no room for randomness in the affairs of the family and the country. There is also a completely unfamiliar situation and environment in the Jin State. I am not sure that you can stay here safely. Grew up in the palace."

"I'm not trying to defend myself. I really couldn't help myself."

"In the past, I had no power in the Jin Kingdom. I had to plan step by step and plan carefully. I didn't dare to make a wrong step, for fear of exposing you to danger."

"The men of the Jin State are too strong and despicable at heart. They look down on women. If I had taken you to the Jin State a few years ago, with your appearance and before my power was strong, I would have been killed by those shameless people." The powerful people are eyeing it.”

Yan Li raised his eyes slightly and said calmly: "What would you do if Yan Li really died?"

Jiang Yi's expression changed slightly and she was silent for a long time.

"Yan Li is dead. Even if you avenged her and sought justice, she is still dead. You can't save her life." Yan Li's voice was calm and calm, "So compensation is meaningless."

Jiang Yi's face turned pale: "Li'er——"

"I don't need your compensation, especially emotionally, but I can agree to your request." Yan Li said, "Of course, I also have conditions."

"Say it." Jiang Yi immediately turned from worry to joy, "As long as I can do it, I will definitely promise you."

"I don't like to be too close to others. We haven't seen each other for fourteen years, and I can't call her mother." Yan Li said, "From now on, I will only call you empress."

Jiang Yi's eyes dimmed slightly, and then she nodded: "Well, as long as you don't want to, I will never force you."

"I went to the Jin Kingdom to seize power. I must follow my own rules and plans. No one is allowed to criticize my behavior." Yan Li said lightly, "But I will work hard to achieve your wish and let all the women of the Jin Kingdom get it." The respect they deserve.”

Jiang Yi was embarrassed: "But you have no experience -"

Yan Li said calmly: "Once you are born again, you will become familiar again. You must learn to grow on your own."

Jiang Yi thought for a while: "Okay, I agree."

"One more thing, everything I tell you is true." Yan Li didn't want her to have any illusions about family ties. "My life was saved. After being beaten with the sticks by Jiang Yunming and Luo Shi, I had really lost my life." After dying once, maybe the Lord of Hell thought that I still had some unfulfilled wishes, so he allowed me to come back and live for a few more days."

"Perhaps in three to five months or three to five years, I will be dead. You'd better be mentally prepared."

Jiang Yi's face turned pale: "Li'er..."

"Also, Mu Cang and I are already married." Yan Li said calmly, "No one can veto this marriage."

"I can promise not to interfere with your feelings, nor to break up your relationship as husband and wife." Jiang Yi said quickly, "But if you really like Mu Cang, you should return to Jin."

Yan Li's heart moved slightly: "Why?"

"Mu Cang is the God of War of the Mu Kingdom. His identity will be suspected sooner or later in the Mu Kingdom. If you become the eldest princess of the Jin Kingdom, you may be able to help him when he is in trouble."

Yan Li fell silent. Thinking of Mu Cang's identity, she understood what Jiang Yi meant.

She had thought about what Mu Cang would do if she was suspected.

However, now she knows that there is no need to worry about this issue at all. Mu Cang is not a person who lets others influence his destiny. .

"Actually, I admire Mu Cang very much." Jiang Yi smiled faintly, "I'm not really against you marrying him. I'm just unhappy that the emperor didn't protect you. He didn't do anything he promised me."

Emperor Zhaocheng promised her that he would protect Yan Li and keep her safe.

The marriage to Mu Xiuhan was not important. If she quit, she would quit. Her daughter didn't care about being the queen and spent her best years trapped in the palace.

But the method Mu Xiuhan used was unacceptable to her.

The Jiang family was right under the emperor's nose, but Yan Li had been living a cautious and dependent life for fourteen years. The emperor didn't know at all?

Jiang Yi couldn't help but wonder, did he really not know, or did he not care at all, thinking that as long as Yan Li was alive, he had an explanation for her?

"Queen." Yan Li spoke, not sure whether it was out of curiosity or a casual question, "Do you like the emperor?"

Jiang Yi came back to her senses and frowned: "Are you talking about the emperor outside?"

"Um."

"I don't like it." Jiang Yi answered without hesitation, "I never liked it before, and now I hate it even more."
