Romance of the Resurrected Crown Princess and the Cold-blooded Wolf King

Seeing that Huangfu Lian had stood out, Huangfu Zhao also stood forward and said, “Father, I can’t accept this either. Since ancient times, the ruler of the Qinglong Empire has always been male. There has never been a female on the throne. Please think about it twice.”

Huangfu Cang also hated Huangfu Zhao but he didn’t say anything. He only looked down at all the people, waiting for the others’ reaction. He knew that there wouldn’t be two objectors only.

Huangfu Xin struggled to get up from the ground and pretended to look at Huangfu Cang with grief, “Your Majesty, do you intend to give our Qinglong Empire away to the Zhuque Empire by issuing this imperial edict?”

Hearing that, Huangfu Cang narrowed his black eyes fiercely but he still said nothing and turned to look at Dunamu Xi aside. Since he decided to hand over the future of the Qinglong Empire to his granddaughter, she must handle this on her own.

Everyone felt as if waking up and all prostrated themselves on the ground, crying out, “Please take back the imperial edict.”

If Princess Qinglian really ascended the throne, wouldn’t the Qinglong Empire become a dependent country of the Zhuque Empire?

Duanmu Xi looked at Huangfu Xin and her lips curved into a sneer. His words turned out to be so provocative. As always, he was still so articulate.

“I didn’t want to be the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire. Since all of you are against it, I may as well accept the imperial edict then,” Duanmu Xi said casually and meanwhile flicked her sleeves. Instantly, the imperial edict in Eunuch Wang’s hands disappeared.

Eunuch Wang had experienced this before. This time, he was not scared by the sudden disappearance of the imperial edict.

Seeing that Duanmu Xi accepted the imperial edict, different people’s reactions varied. Huangfu Cang looked satisfied, Duanmu Xue furrowed her eyebrows, Huangfu Che was quite delighted and Xuanyuan Mo’s amber eyes were beaming with affection.

Glaring at Duanmu Xi, Huangfu Xin asked with an angry look, “Princess Qinglian, do you think you can be the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire after accepting the imperial edict?”

Duanmu Xi slightly squinted her dark purple eyes and snorted, “It is not up to you whether I can be the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire.”

Hearing that, Huangfu Xin immediately pulled a long face. Huangfu Cang’s granddaughter was really as annoying as Huangfu Cang.

“It’s not up to him. Who do you think will have a say in this?” Huangfu Song said in a deep and old voice. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry.

Duanmu Xi turned to look at Huangfu Song, her dark purple eyes glistening with fierceness, “Do you also want to disobey the imperial edict as them do?”

Her cold voice made the people kneeling on the ground all shudder.

“Of course not.” Huangfu Song still showed no feelings on his face. He was not frightened or angry.

“Humph.” With a flick of sleeves, Duanmu Xi snorted, “It seems that the imperial power of the Qinglong Empire is really weak. Not only do these elders and imperial sons dare to disobey the imperial edict but also these officials and officers have the nerve to defy the imperial edict. You must be thankful that Grandpa is so good-tempered. If I were him, you would be faced with only one consequence today.”

In the meantime, Duanmu Xi cast another rush of coercion, which made all the people kneeling on the ground start to tremble nonstop. The officers were even sweating nonstop while the officials who had no martial arts skills started to foam at their mouths and roll their eyes.

This time, Huangfu Xin was forced by Duanmu Xi’s coercion to directly kneel. He glared at her fiercely with his black eyes. He couldn’t let her be the heiress of the Qinglong Empire. Never.

Huangfu Cang stayed quiet aside while Huangfu Song also sat still, who didn’t mean to stop her at all.

Duanmu Xi glimpsed the people who had been pushed to the limit and finally withdrew her coercion slowly.

The suffocating feeling was suddenly gone. The officials and officers kneeling there all got to gasp. They felt so good to be alive!

The feeling of being at the last gasp was too terrible. They never wanted to experience it again. However, they were in a pickle now. If they begged for mercy, they would be deemed too cowardly; if they didn’t, they would be regarded as rebels who disobeyed the imperial edict.

Duanmu Xi glanced over the officials and officers who trembled with fear. With a sneer, she turned to look at Huangfu Song, “Elder Song, may I ask whether women are forbidden to ascend the throne based on the rules of the Huangfu Family?”

Huangfu Song heard her question and his black eyes glittered, “No.”

“Since there is no such a rule of forbidding women to ascend the throne, I shall be the most eligible person on the Hantian Continent to be the heiress of the Qinglong Empire.” Duanmu Xi glanced around the officials and officers fiercely. Obviously, her words were uttered for these people.

Huangfu Xin held back the severe pain and looked up at Duanmu Xi, saying with a dismissive expression, “Your Highness is so cocky! I wonder on what ground you can make such a statement in the Qinglong Hall.”

Hearing that, the others all looked at Duanmu Xi and wanted to know how she would answer the question.

“On what ground can I say that?” Duanmu Xi snorted. She would show them.

“Qingfeng, I will give you a chance for atonement.” If it didn’t behave well, she would make Hongling marry someone else.

Qingfeng in her mental space read her mind. With the corners of its mouth twitching, it had no other choice but to get out of the mental space.

None of the people kneeling on the ground understood what Duanmu Xi was talking about until they saw the cyan dragon that showed up from nowhere. They all widened their eyes and opened their mouths in shock.

Gee! What did they see? A cyan dragon that was exactly the same as the statue on the plaque of the Qinglong Hall. That was the guarding mythical creature of the Qinglong Empire, which was the most respected being by the people of the Qinglong Empire. They saw the legendary mythical creature of the cyan dragon. Were they dreaming?

Even Huangfu Cang, Duanmu Xue and the others were all shocked by the cyan dragon in front. Only Xuanyuan Mo was still expressionless as if he saw an ordinary spiritual beast. He was not surprised at all.

When everyone was stupefied, Qingfeng glanced in the direction of Xuanyuan Mo and then circled around the Qinglong Hall once. Then, it stopped in front of Duanmu Xi and said, “Mistress.”

Heavens! What did they hear? The cyan dragon called Princess Qinglian mistress. They must hear it wrong.

Huangfu Song was also amazed by the cyan dragon in awe. Then, he looked at Duanmu Xi with complicated feelings. She had succeeded in making the cyan dragon call her mistress. It seemed that she was destined to ascend the throne of the Qinglong Empire.

While everyone was hypnotizing themselves, a majestic and cold female voice sounded in their ears.

“Here is the mythical creature–the cyan dragon. Chief Elder, do you still think that I’m not qualified to be the heiress of the Qinglong Empire?”

Huangfu Xin couldn’t accept such a fact for now as if going mad. He pointed at Duanmu Xi and said, “How is it possible? There is no mythical creature of the cyan dragon in the world. This must be fake! Yeah! It is a trick played by this woman…”

Duanmu Xi slightly narrowed her dark purple eyes and said to Qingfeng, “Keep him alive.”

She must deal with Huangfu Xin on her own. It would be too boring if he was killed now.

“Yes, Mistress,” Qingfeng replied and meanwhile swayed its tail at Huangfu Xin.

Huangfu Xin was immediately sent flying a few hundred meters away and passed out.

“The cyan dragon has taken me as its mistress. What? Do you think that you are even more exalted than the cyan dragon?” The majestic and cold female voice came again.

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, greetings.” Huangfu Song reacted first. He only bowed and didn’t kneel.

Duanmu Xi glimpsed Huangfu Song apathetically and didn’t mind his not kneeling before her. After all, he didn’t even kneel in front of Huangfu Cang.

Hearing Huangfu Song’s words, all the people came to their senses and immediately kowtowed, exclaiming, “Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Princess. Long live Her Highness the Crown Princess!”

Seeing that Huangfu Song had acknowledged Duanmu Xi’s identity and the cyan dragon beside Duanmu Xi, Huangfu Cang’s sons and grandsons all knelt on the ground resignedly.

For the moment, the shout of “Your Highness the Crown Princess” resounded through the whole Qinglong Hall, making Phoenix Two and Phoenix Five feel as if they were in the Zhuque Hall.

“Okay. Okay.” Huangfu Cang took an appreciative look at Duanmu Xi and turned to glance over the kneeling officials and officers, “From today onwards, Princess Qinglian is the crown princess of the Qinglong Empire. If anyone dares to show disrespect for her, you should be aware of the consequence.”

Upon hearing that, everyone hung their heads and bent down at once, “I dare not.” Princess Qinglian was the heiress of the Qinglong Empire. How could they dare to show disrespect?

“Enough. Rise.” Today was his 60th birthday and the big day when Xi became the crown princess. Since they had admitted mistakes, he would let go of them for now.

The birthday banquet resumed as the officials and officers returned to their seats.

Zhuge Weiming looked at Duanmu Xi sitting on the throne and his back eyes glistened. This woman was the crown princess of two empires now. Any man who married her would have the Qinglong Empire and the Zhuque Empire directly.

There were plenty of men who thought the same as Zhuge Weiming, including Xuanyuan She and Xuanyuan Hao.

However, no one said anything in the Qinglong Hall again. If they proposed to Duanmu Xi now, their goal would be too evident. The emperor of the Qinglong Empire and the empress of the Zhuque Empire were not idiots.

Huangfu Cang’s 60th birthday celebration came to a happy ending.

After the birthday banquet was over, Huangfu Cang asked Duanmu Xi to go into the Longyin Hall to acknowledge the ancestors of the Huangfu Family again.

From now on, Duanmu Xi became the only woman who could have unlimited access to the Longyin Hall at will.

After the birthday banquet, many more sayings arose in the Qinglong Empire.

It was said that the mythical creature of the cyan dragon once showed itself in the imperial palace of the Qinglong Empire to celebrate the birthday of the emperor of the Qinglong Empire.

It was said that the cyan dragon appointed the daughter of the former crown prince as the current crown princess of the Qinglong Empire.

It was said that Huangfu Xin was punished by the cyan dragon because he offended the crown princess.

It was said that…

Anyway, all the things about the mythical creature of the cyan dragon became legends.

After the birthday banquet, none of the people who should have left the Qinglong Empire left. They all stayed in the imperial palace of the Qinglong Empire shamelessly.

Xuanyuan Mo looked at the men surrounding Duanmu Xi, his amber eyes filled with fierceness.

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, this is the top-grade Dragon Well tea. Please taste it…”

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, would you like to listen to some music…”

“Your Highness the Crown Princess, here are some grapes….”

Duanmu Xi scratched her hair frenetically. She was going crazy now. Dang! Who on earth let these people in?
