(Lie May) The Girl Who Against Three Worlds

Chapter 13 (S1): War between the Empire

It didn't take long enough for Zi Han, Emperor Lie Xian's shadow bodyguard, to return with the Bei Han Empire's already rope-tied soldiers before Emperor Lie Xian.

Upon the rebellion that was secretly carried out by Emperor Jing, it also made his breach of the treaty between the two Empires, namely the Yan Empire and the Bei Han Empire.

Thus His Majesty Emperor Lie Xian declared to capture all the Bei Han Empire soldiers involved in the theft of the Spiritual Stones belonging to the Yan Empire.

The next day... This news of the Bei Han Empire's rebellion quickly spread throughout the entire territory of the Yan Empire. The people also looked very angry and impatiently waiting for the action that the Emperor would take.

Meanwhile the current moment in the Main Hall of the Yan Empire seemed to be extremely tense because of the Emperor, the Officials, the Ministers, the Fifth Head of the Great Family, were extremely tense, as well as the Chief and Sect Elders from the top sects were discussing about the rebels of the Bei Han Empire.

★Outside Main Hall★

Empress Ying and Consort Feng were also the Princes and Princesses waiting for the results of an important meeting outside the entrance of the Main Hall.

"It's been 3 hours, but the meeting's not over yet. It seemed like the Emperor and the others were unable to decide what to do next." Empress Ying walked back and forth in the same place, with an anxious look plastered on her face.

"Your mother, calm down. Why are you so anxious waiting for the results of the meeting?" Crown Prince Lie Zhun patted his mother's shoulder to appease her.

"My son how can I not worry. You know not the result of this meeting might end up in a war between two empires."

"Where if that war happens, our Yan Empire must send one of the members of the empire to lead this war. And you Lie Zhun is the eldest son of the family who is the most suitable candidate to be elected,"

"Mom was so worried! What if something happens to you when the war happens." Empress Ying hugged her son with tears.

"That's not gonna happen! Your son is so powerful how could anything happen to me." Crown Prince Lie Zhun said with a gentle smile.

"Yes.. You're right my son, mom's too worried about him." Empress Ying became calmer with the words of her son.

Consort Feng also seemed to worry about the same thing as Empress Ying, but even so he still showed a calm expression and did not show her concern.

In addition, he also felt relieved that with the occurrence of this Bei Han Empire rebellion, his daughter Lie Mei would not be married to the 6th Prince of the Bei Empire.

"Mother! You look very calm. Aren't you worried about this rebellion?" Ask Lie Song.

"real mom. You are too calm to deal with this matter, let alone the possibility that this will be a war between the two empires." Prince Lie Hao nodded in agreement.

"What to worry about?"

"Our Yan Imperial Family has a long history and has also been known for a long time... Since our family has given birth to many great and powerful successors, one of them is of course His Majesty."

"The matter of war I believe that His Majesty Emperor Lie Xian will handle it easily, therefore I can be as calm as I am now." Concubine Feng smiled gently.

"That's why I'm not sure you can do it. Even I myself have never seen father use his power, how can I be sure of it." Lie Song.

"Sister Lie Song is really mom. My master at TianJin Academy had indeed said if Father Emperor possessed an extraordinarily powerful strength, he was even known as the strongest Emperor in history in the Yan Empire,"

"But I still wouldn't believe it if I didn't see it in person." Lie Hao.

"It's true your father never showed his strength in front of you all this time. But believe me, your father, Emperor Lie Xian, is very strong." Said Consort Feng.

"I'm very curious as to how strong my father's powers are..." Lie Hao clenched his hand eagerly to see the power of Emperor Lie Xian.

"Hehehe..." Lie Mei let out a small laugh seeing her younger brother so curious about the power of Emperor Lie Xian.

"Mother! You said that Father is one of the successors of the extremely powerful Yan Imperial Family. That means there are other successors who have the same power or even greater than Dad, right?" Ask Lie Mei.

"True my daughter." Answer Concubine Feng.

"I was expecting it. Where are the successors then? Why haven't I seen or heard their names?" Ask Lie Mei.

"On that.... It looks like mom can't answer your question, but they're definitely in a faraway place." Concubine Feng broke out in cold sweat.

"I understand mom. You don't have to tell me if it's not time yet."

"Yes, thank you my daughter Lie Mei."

After the time has passed. The door of the closed Main Hall finally opened as well. The officials, Ministers, Five Heads of the Great Family, Chiefs and Sect Elders from the famous sects were seen walking out of the room one by one.

"The rumors seem to be true." The figure of the black-bearded old man spoke in a tone of disbelief. He was the Head of the Xun Family.

"Gossip? You're talking about Second Princess Lie Mei?" The middle-aged man who had silver hair unraveling next to him asked. The man was the Head of the Wei Family.

"really. How are you yourself? Don't you think Second Princess Lie Mei has become very different from before."

"Yes, I admit it's true. Judging from any side she was like she was not Second Princess Lie Mei. And again His Majesty the Emperor was very confident of handing over the great responsibility to him."

"The head of the Wei Family even said so. Old man Zhao what do you think, I want to know the opinion of the wise Family Head Zhao."

"A human being can change sometimes, there is nothing to worry about. Family Head Xun if you have a lot of time to talk about gossip, why don't you just increase your cultivation?" A figure of White-haired Grandfather with a shouldered model spoke.

"I don't need your advice, old man Zhao." Family Head Xun frowned in annoyance.

"But from the words of Family Head Xun there is a point. I myself did not expect that if the Second Princess Lie Mei who was known to be stupid, weak, and useless could become a different figure like now." A dark red-haired young man in his 20s.

"Huh! Little boy you have no right to speak. Just so you know that even now you are the Head of the Shu Family but I will never admit you.... That goes for you, too, boy..."

The Xun Family Head stared intently at the golden blonde-haired young man who looked to be the same age as the Shu Family Head. The blond-haired young man was the Head of the Qing Family.

The head of the Qing Family just kept silent and went to ignore the words spoken by Family Head Xun.

"Look at that stinky boy's bravery, he might ignore me. His attitude was very different from his father. I doubt if he is a descendant of the Qing Family." Said Family Head Xun in annoyance.

"Ah, Qing Jun wait for me. Gentlemen, please forgive his insolent attitude, I'll excuse you first." The head of the Shu Family, Shu Mian looked down at the 3 Family Heads present, then ran after the Qing Family Head, Qing Jun.

"Hey.. You're overreacting, aren't you? After all, they are just young people... Don't enlarge it." Said Family Head Wei patting the shoulder of Family Head Xun.

"Huh! Who cares." Family Head Xun removed the hands of Family Head Wei from his shoulders and left in a rage.

'Ha... It seems he still hasn't accepted it. I hope her anger won't be a flower bud that blooms later.' Inner Family Head Wei sighed.

★In the Main Hall Room of Yan★ Empire

After the meeting the officials and others were done. Empress Ying, Consort Feng, and the Princes and Princesses of the Empire asked His Majesty to enter the Main Hall.

"Your Majesty how was the outcome of the meeting?" Empress Ying asked in front of Emperor Lie Xian's throne.

"The result has been decided the empire will fight with the Bei Han Empire..." The Emperor Lie Xian.

"If you decide to go to war, then who will lead the war, Your Majesty?" Empress Ying asked.

"The leader of this war will be handed over to Crown Prince Lie Zhun, as well as Second Princess Lie Mei..."

The atmosphere was instantly silent, Empress Ying and Consort Feng were shocked to hear Emperor Lie Xian's reply. Yet they knew the Emperor's decision was absolute. They cannot therefore oppose his decision.

Although Lie Mei already knew that the rebellion of the Bei Han Empire would lead to a war between the two empires, she herself did not expect to have to be directly involved in this war.

"Crown Prince Lie Zhun and Second Princess Lie Mei you stay here, the rest can return to their respective residences." Emperor Lie Xian's Order.

Empress Ying, Consort Feng, Lie Song, Lie Hao, Third Prince Lie Shao, and Third Princess Lie Hua left the Main Hall at the Emperor's order.

"As I have said, you two will be sent as the leaders of this war. Before that I will explain the plans and strategies that will be carried out in the war." Said Emperor Lie Xian to Crown Prince Lie Zhun and Second Princess Lie Mei before him.

"Guard! Summon Supreme General Luo Tian and Supreme Vice General Luo Xuan before me."

"Okay, Your Majesty." The guards outside the Main Hall immediately went to carry out their duties.
