Reject me, hateful woman

Regardless of her figure or appearance, the empress with dragon blood is a first-class beauty, enough to outshine all other beauties in any occasion.

But whenever it was her turn to appear, her majesty and aura would overshadow her beauty, and everyone would lower their heads in unison. Even a proud man like Reinhardt, this lion of the north, would have to stand out in the red. When the Dragon Queen appeared, she bowed her head to express her submission.

The originally arrogant patriarchs of the five major families were even more so. Therefore, the only tall figure who did not lower his head looked particularly eye-catching.

Linn didn't even look at the empress for a second, and even blinked at Quinn who was hiding in the shadows.

The empress' eyes twitched, but she didn't express any dissatisfaction. Instead, Quinn chuckled and looked at the show.

Although she didn't say a word, you can be sure that our Empress is definitely enjoying it.

So someone is going to be out of luck.

"Sir Reinhardt, long time no see."

The empress turned her eyes to the Duke of Northland and nodded lightly.

"Twenty-seven years, Your Majesty, since the end of the Northern Campaign."

Reinhard lowered his head slightly, ignoring the looks of help and good looks around him. Unexpectedly, he responded in a respectful manner, as if the lion had completely surrendered to the Queen's power.

Quinn was so happy. Who said this old lion was full of muscles? Facing the angry old mother, he was very clever and would not accept your attack at all.

So it goes without saying who will be unlucky next.

The Queen's eyes turned to the head of the Boer family in the corner who had been trying to hide himself in the crowd:

"Qing Boer, I heard that you asked Prince Lin En to exercise your power of decision?"

The head of the Boer family quickly lowered his head and couldn't help but secretly curse.

I just asked His Highness Lin En for a ruling. Where did you hear about it...

However, he never dared to ask this question, so he had to bow his head and respond: "Your Majesty, this is the matter."

However, the empress's next words made the Boer family head break into a cold sweat:

"Well, I also heard that you are not very satisfied with the third prince's ruling. Is it true?"

"How about if you have any dissatisfaction, say it and let me help you decide?"

The empress's tone was as majestic and indifferent as usual. It could even be described as "peaceful". She even used a consultative tone!

However, the head of the Boer family softened his knees and knelt down directly:

"Your Majesty, this is a rumor. It is an absolute rumor. How pitiful God. I have no dissatisfaction with His Highness the Prince's verdict. After the banquet, I will order the family members to evacuate from the Klin District!"

This scene was very embarrassing, very cowardly, and very inconsistent with the identity of the patriarch of the five major families. However, only the head of the Boer family knew what he had gone through just now.

The moment the empress turned her gaze towards him, Boar seemed to feel that what was staring at him was not some stunningly beautiful empress, but a huge red dragon with a majestic head and horns, grinding its teeth to drink blood.

Shame?

He only hated his parents for giving him a child who was too tall and who couldn't kneel down quickly enough!

In fact, after seeing the Boss of the Boer family slipping and kneeling so skillfully, the empress did show an expression of subtle displeasure.

This bunch of useless insects, when he was not present, all showed off their power, talking about their family origins and aristocratic traditions, but when they were in front of him, they were so full of spirit that they couldn't even find a reason to get angry.

However, the empress still said calmly:

"No need, the Shadow Knight will help your family evacuate from the Klin District tonight, so Master Lao Boer doesn't need to worry about it."

Upon hearing this, not only the head of the Boer family, but also the rest of the old aristocratic forces who had difficulty dealing with the empress felt chilled.

The empress's words revealed too much information.

Naturally, the Shadow Knight would not predict what the Bol family would do tonight and go ahead to help the Bol family move.

There is only one answer, indiscriminate surprise inspection!

Since during the Dragon Blood Ceremony, when most of the noble family heads are away...

In an instant, the faces of countless people in the audience became uncomfortable, especially the heads of the five major families, whose faces became even more ugly and gloomy.

But the empress seemed to have just said a small thing casually, and began to randomly name some of the courtiers present, but most of them were beatings and small punishments. Only a few were compliments, and most of them were aimed at the younger generation. .

The young people who were named, regardless of whether they were men or women, were all excited. Whether they were the conservatives who couldn't deal with the empress, or the royalists who were originally loyal to His Majesty, after discovering the fact that "Your Majesty has me in his heart", they all wanted to do it. He threw his head and blood for the empress on the spot.

Only Lin En in the banquet hall curled her lips in disdain.

Young people's physiques are just different. When someone's name is called out, they want to seek life and death for the other person.

And he could see clearly that every time Her Majesty the Queen opened her mouth, Quinn in the shadow would whisper something.

He could guess it with just a few words. It was definitely Quinn, the head of the empire's secret agents, who called out a name, and the queen read a sentence in response.

Do you want that brute woman who only thinks about muscles to remember your name?

Haha, go dreaming!

It's possible that the fruit plate you have on the table is on her head.

Kaya and Historia also received the Empress's nod, and the former's performance was naturally still perfect. At this time, the little princess finally revealed some of her royal origins, which was extremely rare.

Whether it was the skirt-raising ceremony when being called upon, or the greetings when the Empress greeted Emperor Fire Rose, they were all in place, making both Elena and Linn, who were familiar with each other's nature, look at Her Royal Highness with admiration.

After all, she is a princess, so she is different from a little person like me.

Elena looked at her friend on the side, feeling a little envious and at the same time sincerely happy for the other person, but at the same time she couldn't help but smile a little.

However, it would have been even worse if the empress hadn't looked away and muttered crazily, "Scared me to death, scared me to death."

At this moment, a majestic voice suddenly sounded in the girl's ears:

"Are you Elena?"

"Eh?!"

Elena was shocked when her name was suddenly called, and she became a little at a loss.

Here, call me?

The moment the empress appeared, she had been observing the legendary figure...and the mother of classmate Lin En.

Elena was fascinated by the beauty and majesty of the other party.

However, she never expected that the empress would actually know the name of a small character like herself? !

"It's okay, don't be nervous, I don't care about this,"

The empress raised her hand slightly and comforted Elena, who was blushing.

"You're pretty good, keep up the good work."

Elena was speechless for a moment and could only nod mechanically. The empress couldn't help but frowned slightly and said silently in her heart:

"Are you sure this is the girl Lin En likes? Why doesn't she look so smart?"

Quinn's excited voice immediately sounded:

"Your Majesty is aware of this, but maybe Brother Lin En, who is so smart, likes girls who are not very smart. Why don't you take a look at Her Royal Highness the Princess next door?"

The Queen glanced at Historia, who had clear eyes next to Elena, and nodded inwardly.

Well, looking at it this way, the young man named Elena is much smarter and more pleasing to the eye...

"Your dress seems a little special?"

The empress suddenly asked again.

"Your Majesty, yes, I sewed this dress myself..."

Unexpectedly, the empress would ask herself this question, and Elena couldn't help but lower her head in shame.

Of course Elena can't afford a dress for the banquet, but Historia is willing to generously give her one, but the sizes of some parts of the two are too different...

Fortunately, Elena also learned some tailoring skills in order to make a living when she was a child. She quickly modified a long dress that was similar to Historia's dress, which was quite stylish.

But the details are far different from those made by real masters. Many nobles have long seen through it, but due to Historia's identity, no one has pointed it out.

But Her Majesty the Queen obviously had no such concerns and asked her doubts directly.

Many nobles already disliked Elena for this mudblood who was of low status but was able to sneak into the dinner party with herself and others. At this time, it was really satisfying to see Her Majesty the Queen finally issue a "judgment".

"Well, it's a bit unseemly..."

Elena's head buried lower.

"Since we are going to a banquet, we can't do it without a decent dress. Quinn, you can have someone take her to choose a decent dress later."

"As ordered."

Quinn next to the throne smiled and nodded, but the other ministers in the venue were all eager to eat an egg.

No, Her Majesty the Queen actually gave this mudblood a piece of clothing just now?

A dress for a party is indeed not an expensive thing, but this kind of gift is usually given to each other by close people.

If you think about it carefully, if you are really an ordinary mudblood, how can you be so close to Historia?

Some people couldn't help but guess Elena's identity.

And more people began to recall whether they had offended Elena...

"Thank you, thank you Your Majesty!"

Elena was also a little flattered by this sudden gift.

It turns out that the rumored Red Dragon Empress is such a kind and generous king?

But in fact, Her Majesty the Empress did not think so much, or her focus was not on this aspect.

After all, the relationship between Lin En and himself is tense now. Helping him vent his anger is one aspect, while admitting that what he did before was too ruthless is another aspect.

To put it simply, it is impossible for Her Majesty the Queen to apologize to Lin En, but by showing kindness to the people around him and giving him some small compensation, it is simply a piece of cake.

My idiot son should feel the greatness of maternal love this time.

Therefore, at the end, Her Majesty the Queen raised the corners of her lips slightly and added lightly:

"Well, you're welcome. Don't forget who you really should thank."

Who should really be thanked?

A certain figure instantly appeared in Elena's mind.

The nobles also instantly understood. Almost everyone who had done some research on Lin En's information knew that the girl Elena in front of them was a member of Lin En's study group!

Obviously, Her Majesty the Queen's favor will not come out of nowhere, it can only be because of Her Royal Highness Lin En!

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I understand."

After getting the desired reply, the empress nodded with satisfaction.

He cast a sidelong glance at Lin En and saw that the other person was staring at him inexplicably, which made him feel even happier.

My son is good at everything, but it is a pity that his high emotional intelligence has not been passed down to him.

Even if you need help from the daughter of the Mistry family, you can't leave other girls in such a cold spot, right?

Fortunately, he had me to help him figure it out.

At this moment, the Queen's sense of accomplishment reached its peak tonight.

Now that troublesome son should be satisfied, right?

At this time, Linn was not only satisfied, but almost bursting with satisfaction!

It hurts, it hurts too much!

He never expected that after he had worked so hard to battle with the patriarchs of the five major families and gained the upper hand, the real harm would come from behind, coming so unexpectedly!

I really can't stay in this home for a second!

Calm down first, as long as you do the Holy Trial, everything will be fine!

Seeing that the queen's mother and Elena ended their interaction, and her eyes fell on Historia again, Linn almost suffered a cardiac arrest.

You stop me!

"cough!"

Lin En coughed suddenly, attracting the empress' attention:

"Your Majesty, it's getting late for the banquet. Can you start the Holy Exam for me and Lord Maurice as soon as possible?"

"Brother Linn, do you really want to take the Holy Test tonight?"
