968 Chapter 968 “Troops as Gift“
No one other than the previous emperor and the emperor himself could go against the empress. That's how the empress had a very strong position in the kingdom.
"...wait what??" Li Shi Ying paused a bit trying to digest the information and when the realisation hit her, only then she squealed out of shock.
Blessing? Isn't this the same as acknowledging her as the future empress when Long Ao Zhen takes the throne later??
"It's not a big deal. I just want to protect my little granddaughter that's all" seeing Li Shi Ying suddenly froze on the spot, Long Yu Ren tried to reassure the girl.
She might be too shocked knowing that she got his blessing but really. This girl deserved it. She had contributed a lot to the kingdom even more so than the current empress.
How could she didn't deserve his blessing too?
"I…" Li Shi Ying almost teared up hearing Long Yu Ren's words. How could this old man so kind toward her who was a human? She didn't expect being received this good by the previous emperor and the emperor.
She was really so lucky to meet the two of them.
"Just a blessing. Let's see I haven't given you anything. How about... troops? You need your own knight and bodyguard I think. Let's see I'll give you the green jade knight, snow shadow guard and black tiger soldier troops how is it?"
The emperor rubbed his chin as he casually blurted out important things one after another. Even Long Ao Zhen was speechless beyond relief.
"Knight...shadow guard and...soldier?" Li Shi Ying turned her head to Long Ao Zhen asking for an explanation. So somehow her feeling told her that all of this is extremely...precious.
"You know that I have my own shadow guard unit? I also have my guards and soldier troops. Now my father wants to give you all three. The green jade knights are the second-best below the emperor personal knight. These knights are as strong as my own knights. The shadow guard and the soldier too are just as strong as mine"
Long Ao Zhen shook his head realizing that his father really doted on Li Shi Ying. Even the empress didn't have such privilege to own knight, shadow guard along with soldier!
The empress only had knights and the knights even though they were elite, they couldn't be compared to the green jade knights. Not only the emperor gave Li Shi Ying knights, but he also gave her shadow guards and soldier!
A little girl like Li Shi Ying just for what she needed soldier??
"I-imperial father this is too precious!" Li Shi Ying immediately refused after knowing what the gifts she got. It was basically just giving her power! The previous emperor already gave her a blessing and now she got troops of her own?
Insane.
"Don't be like that. Since you are a human you will need the protection. Not all people in this kingdom will receive you and you should already know that, right? That's why you will need these people's strength. My son won't be able to protect you all the time"
The emperor laughed seeing how humble Li Shi Ying was. This girl deserved to get her own troops even if she wasn't the future empress. She had contributed a lot to the kingdom, this gift was nothing.
Wait maybe he should give her a title as well. An official crown princess title...maybe he had to hold a banquet for this.
The emperor thought silently as he took out 3 medals out of his spatial ring. The first medal was made of green jade, the second was a medal as white as the snow. It should be made of white marble while the last one was pure black really contrast with the white one.
This black medal might be made of black jade, looking from how it was glossy under the lamplight.
"This…" Li Shi Ying was almost choked of tears seeing the three medals laying in front of her. The emperor really did plan on giving her troops.
"Now insert a drop of your blood on each medal. That way the medal will recognize you as its owner. So even if you lose the medal and ended up in another person's hand, it can't be used. The troops will only obey the person holding the medal after all."
The emperor was all smile as he asked Li Shi Ying to mark the medal. Having no choice but to accept, Li Shi Ying finally inserts a bit of her blood to each medal and store it inside Mao Mao spatial space.
"Try to call them out by inserting your divine energy in it. I'm sure you have a few divine energy thanks to my son's mistake. Well, you can try this on later" The emperor didn't forget to tell Li Shi Ying how to summon her troops.
This sounded very convenient to Li Shi Ying if only the emperor didn't mention Long Ao Zhen's mistake. Hearing this, the girl couldn't help but blush red.
Long Ao Zhen!!
"Father I think Ying'er is tired. Let me bring her to my residence for now, how is it? As for meeting mother, she can do so tomorrow" Long Ao Zhen coughed before he immediately shifted the topic.
He felt like choking his father for shamelessly bringing up the old case. He regretted it okay?! Now stop it or his bunny would find another way to torture him! He won't survive then. 😭
