Chapter 262 How can a dignified empress be treated as a plaything?
Florian stepped forward and gracefully knelt down to greet her.
Su Qi slowly extended the back of her hand, and Florian naturally placed a kiss on it.
"Your Majesty, I am late in coming to your aid."
Shen Chaohuai stood to the side, his brows furrowed deeply.
"It's not too late. Now that the people who were blocking me have been dealt with, consider yourself to have done a great service. What do you want?" she asked.
A sense of crisis arose in Shen Chaohuai's heart. Florian was known as the most handsome man in the empire, with white hair and long eyelashes, elegant and polite, and with a cold personality.
Women in the Empire all love men who study law, and Florian is one of the best in the law department.
Judging from this, Su Qi is very likely to have taken a liking to Florian.
Florian smiled and said, "I ask for no reward, I only want..."
"Stay by His Majesty's side."
Shen Chaohuai clenched his fist: "Your Excellency Judge must not have seen His Majesty for a long time. When His Majesty is not in the Empire, who knows who you are loyal to or whether you have betrayed His Majesty? Such a dangerous person cannot be kept by your side."
Florian's face was cold and expressionless, because he was used to it; Shen Chaohuai had targeted him a lot back in the Empire.
Su Qi's lips curled slightly. Seeing Shen Chaohuai's expression, he wanted to tease him: "My executive officer has even changed his identity. Does he not want to be my subordinate? In that case, your loyalty is also questionable."
Several people burst into laughter, but most of them were puzzled by Shen Chaohuai.
"Executive Fu was ruthless and just when he was in the Empire, and he even looked down on His Majesty. What's wrong with him now...?"
"A bit sour?"
"You're not mistaken, His Majesty has definitely already taken down Executive Officer Fu..."
Shen Chaohuai continued to argue: "Your Majesty, don't forget, the person who tried and executed you was him."
Florian shifted his gaze: "You and I both know His Majesty will not truly die, why sow discord?"
"Alright..." Su Qi felt a strange sense of satisfaction seeing the two of them start arguing, and stopped them in time.
She extended the back of her hand and placed it in front of Shen Chaohuai. Shen Chaohuai understood, immediately knelt on one knee, bowed, and kissed the back of her hand.
He slowed down his movements, deliberately stretching out the time, to enjoy the moment.
After a long while, he looked up: "Your Majesty..."
She released her grip: "You can get up now."
The perfectly timed intervention made Shen Chaohuai feel uneasy and itchy inside.
She returned to her seat, lifted the hem of her military uniform, and draped her legs diagonally over the armrest.
"I have something to inform you all."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"My memory has not fully recovered."
The group exchanged glances, and Chen Ziqian tentatively asked, "Does His Majesty wish to regain his memories?"
"Naturally, my memory is fragmented, and I am somewhat powerless to do things."
"Secondly, I ordered you to bring Princess Xue Zhao here, why haven't you done so yet?"
Florian coughed lightly: "Your Majesty, since you were brought to court by Princess Xue Zhao, she has been under a mandatory confinement order. It is estimated that she will not be released for another two or three years. Early release may cause dissatisfaction among the Congress and the public."
However, everyone knows very well that they are not capable of bringing Su Xuezhao into this world right now.
Unless Su Qi uses his own abilities.
"Enough. I will have plenty of opportunities to avenge Su Xuezhao's schemes against me. There's no need to rush."
There was a knock on the office door from the outside, and Zhao Yan reached out to open it.
Lynn walked in.
“Miss Lynn, His Majesty is in a meeting and may not have time to attend to the work you mentioned.”
Lynn couldn't help but feel a little worried when she saw this group of tall people, all over 1.8 meters tall, who formed a dark mass that blocked out the surroundings.
"It's not an important job. I just wanted to tell Su Qi that because of her victory in the lawsuit against Tianhai, her popularity has skyrocketed and she's now number one on the top popularity list."
"Congratulations."
Lynn smiled.
Although the crowd couldn't understand what she meant, they roughly understood that her plan in this world was very successful.
"Our Empress will succeed wherever she goes; she remains the Queen," Chen Ziqian echoed.
Su Qi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and didn't feel particularly surprised.
Chen Ziqian, not receiving a definite answer, awkwardly shut his mouth.
"So what benefits can Your Majesty gain from this plan?" Lin Yuhuan asked.
Su Qi didn't know how to answer, so she looked at Lynn and said, "You explain."
Lynn picked up her phone: "The advantage is..."
Su Qi's blog followers have climbed to the top of the entertainment list, and her fan base is gradually expanding.
[1L: How come I never thought this woman was so cool before?!]
[2L: Oh my god, I really shouldn't have criticized her. I missed out on a great artist!]
[3L: Being young and naive, and having been a fan of celebrities whose careers have collapsed is a dark chapter in my life!]
[4L: My little Qi has finally come out of the woodwork! No longer a nobody!]
[5L: Xiao Qi! Mommy loves you!]
[6L: Our Xiao Qi is the coolest and most beautiful star! (Sticky emoji)]
[7L: Can I get a little kiss with Xiaoqi? I love it!]
……
Everyone was shocked when they saw the contents of the phone.
“His Majesty is the most honorable person in the world. How can he be treated like a plaything by these people? What kind of behavior is this?” Florian said.
Shen Chaohuai said, "Times have changed, but so what? His Majesty came here too, didn't he?"
"Your Majesty, this arrangement is far too ostentatious."
"Your Majesty, you must not lower yourself to such a high status!"
Chen Ziqian and Zhao Yan both tried to persuade him.
Lin Yuhuan also said, "Your Majesty, although I do not know what you intend to do, this kind of public work is really not in line with Your Majesty's status."
Su Qi shook his head helplessly: "This was left to me by the Su Qi who is already dead. I was just playing along."
"Su Qi, who is already dead?" Chen Ziqian thought of something: "So there really is such a thing as a counterpart?"
Su Qi suddenly remembered this concept, which Shen Chaohuai had told her before, but Shen Chaohuai had never revealed it in detail.
She knew that no matter what Shen Chaohuai did, they were still ruler and subject, and both had secrets; it was impossible to completely trust each other.
Once she completely trusts him, there's no guarantee he won't betray her.
When her gaze fell on Shen Chaohuai, Shen Chaohuai was startled.
“Your Majesty, this is no secret. For example, do you remember Jiang Ze, the NPC who recorded the variety show with you last time? He looks exactly like the Jiang Ze of the Empire,” Shen Chaohuai said first.
Lin Yuhuan frowned: "Jiang Ze? Isn't that the young master of the Jiang family in Rainforest City? Rumor has it that he and Prince Xue Zhao had a relationship in their early years."
"Yes, it's him."
“He said he wanted to make a comeback a while ago and asked me to show you the script.”
"As for me, I'm not as famous as him, so he wanted to invite me to play the second male lead."
Shen Chaohuai said that people don't understand the entertainment industry, since the empire doesn't have an entertainment industry.
"What script?" Su Qi looked up.
Shen Chaohuai immediately took out a folder from under his arm: "Please take a look, Your Majesty."
Su Qi opened the folder.
"A science fiction script? That's interesting."
Lynn suddenly remembered something: "Mr. Jiang did talk to me about this script, but I don't think the female lead's character is very good."
"She's clearly an emperor, so why does she have to get married and give up the throne to the male lead?"
“The script can be revised.” Su Qi rubbed his temples. “I agree. We’ll find the production team to sign the contract soon.”
"Yes!"
People didn't understand why the Empress would have to act.
"Our Emperor must have gone mad..."
