The Emperor Is a High-Schooler
02
Li Zhushi
This is our kingdom. You cannot act so-
Shen Yexue
Does your kingdom not know its own capabilities?
They were both kings, yet one was sitting on the mighty dragon throne while the other stood with his head bowed.
Folklore says that a king never bows. Folklore also says that everybody bows to the strong.
Shen Yexue held absolute power. He could annihilate the Kingdom of Great Li without breaking into sweat.
Li Zhushi
Your majesty, we are trying to discuss peace arrangements. *grits teeth*
Shen Yexue
Really? What does your nation have to offer that I don't already own?
Shen Yexue
Are you going to give me some measly cities?
Shen Yexue
I can have your entire nation if I command my generals. *laughs*
Shen Yexue
So...*leans closer*...offer me something I don't have.
Suddenly, almost as if on cue, the Empress entered with her kids.
Four tall figures with their heads held high walked into the magnificent hall one by one.
Eunuch
Empress Hua has entered.
Empress Hua
Greetings to your majesty.
Shen Yexue
*doesn't acknowledge her*
Eunuch
Crown Prince Li Xuan has entered.
Li Xuan
Greetings to your majesty.
Shen Yexue
This is your crown prince? *scoffs*
Eunuch
Eldest Princess Li Wei has entered.
Li Wei
Greetings, your majesty.
Li Zhushi
Your majesty, if our daughter...
Shen Yexue
Not pretty enough.
Eunuch
Youngest Prince Li Min has entered.
Li Xuan
(Why did the empress bring him here?)
Shen Yexue
*piqued by the mysterious behavior*
A man clad in simple white robes walked inside the room.
The Emperor on the high throne who seemed uninterested in these affairs jolted back to life.
He looked at the man— he who looked so much like a God's child.
Li Min
Greetings to your majesty *bows*
Li Min
*rises and stands beside his sister*
Li Zhushi
Your majesty *hesitant*
Shen Yexue
Will you agree to a marriage proposal for a peace treaty? *grins while looking at Li Min*
Li Min
*looking at his sister, worried*
Li Min
(Please don't let this man have her. Please.)
Li Zhushi looked at his kids, his heart felt heavy. Duties came first.
Shen Yexue
Then, father-in-law, you just saved your nation.
Li Min didn't notice his father's conflicted look at him. All he knew was that he wished to comfort his elder sister, but he couldn't.
