Qin Feng originally wanted to refuse to see him directly, and since he was currently keeping vigil for the old emperor, he had enough excuse to refuse. However, Xia Lin then told him that the envoy sent by the Noah Empire was none other than the third princess of the Noah Empire, Her Highness Octavia Catherine.
It is said that this princess is a purebred blonde ponies, not only very beautiful, but also very fierce!
The super fierce kind!!
Is it fierce?
After careful consideration, Qin Feng decided to meet with the third princess of the Noah Empire.
This has nothing to do with foreign women or anything like that, nor is it related to whether someone is fierce or not. Although Qin Feng does have a thing for women, he is not to the point where he can't move his legs when he sees one.
The main reason I agreed to the meeting was out of curiosity about what the Noah Empire was planning...
This is because the Noah Empire had always had a good relationship with the Qin Empire; otherwise, it wouldn't have had an office in the Qin Empire.
Moreover, the two countries had frequent trade relations at that time. Merchants from the Noah Empire loved to travel to and from Daqin. Although the journey was long, once they could make a successful round trip, they would never have to worry about making a living for the rest of their lives!
The problem is that all these good things came to an abrupt end after the Noah Empire sent Nataya to assassinate the Third Prince Qin Feng. Moreover, instead of admitting its mistakes, the Noah Empire continued to condemn the Great Qin Empire for condoning the remnants of the Holy War. As a result, the Great Qin Empire completely severed ties with the Noah Empire and even announced that no one from the Noah Empire would be allowed to enter the country again.
Thus, Princess Octavia Catherine was barred from entering the Qin Empire and was not permitted to enter.
However, because she was a special envoy and had brought a letter of state, the border guards did not make things difficult for her. Instead, they quickly reported the matter to the emperor. The prime minister then delivered the message to the palace, and that's why Xia Lin came to inform Qin Feng and let him make a decision.
After all, Qin Feng is now the emperor, and he has just taken office. The prime minister and the others must follow his orders, and they also need to test the new emperor's temperament.
With Qin Feng's approval, the border guards quickly allowed him to pass. However, it would likely take more than ten days to travel by carriage from the western border of the Qin Empire to the capital. In other words, Qin Feng would not be able to meet this foreign princess until after the old emperor's state funeral.
So Qin Feng quickly put the matter out of his mind. Hu Xiafei and Yu Wanlin had just been brought into the palace, so he was busy again!
More than two months had passed since they last met, and Yu Wanlin had blossomed into an even more beautiful young woman. Most importantly, she seemed to have missed Qin Feng very much. The moment she saw him, she jumped up excitedly and threw herself into his arms, not only offering her lips for a kiss but also repeatedly calling him "Your Highness" in a coquettish manner. This heartwarming scene made Bai Zhiwei and the others smile, but they couldn't help but remind her that she should now address Qin Feng as "Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, not only was Yu Wanlin stunned, but Hu Xiafei, who was standing next to her, was completely dumbfounded...
His Majesty?
Does that mean His Highness the Third Prince is now... the Emperor?
Wouldn't that mean her daughter, Yu Wanlin, would also become an imperial concubine?
Thinking back on every moment of their journey, remembering how Qin Feng rescued the mother and daughter who were desperate in Derun City, remembering how Qin Feng not only cured her daughter Yu Wanlin's terminal illness but also gave her her current status and unparalleled strength. Because of her outstanding performance at the martial arts tournament, Yu Wanlin is now affectionately known as the "Nation's Daughter" by everyone, because everyone wants a daughter as clever, cute, beautiful, and exceptionally strong as her…
As a mother, Hu Xiafei witnessed all of this happening, especially the dramatic change in her living environment from hell to heaven. How could she not have any thoughts about it?
So she said nothing, but silently began to undress herself until she was completely naked. Then, without a word, she knelt and crawled to Qin Feng's feet, pleading, "Your Majesty, I beg for your favor!"
This... is a must!
Chapter 138: The Simple and Unpretentious Life of an Emperor
Seeing her mother like this, Yu Wanlin immediately took off her clothes with a smile and joined the battle. After all, the mother and daughter had been used to fighting together from the very beginning and had a perfect understanding.
Most importantly, they all knew that Qin Feng had a particular fondness for this kind of thing, so of course, a mother and daughter team would go into battle at this time!
The problem was that Hu Xiafei and Yu Wanlin had never met Xia Lin before, so they naturally didn't know that the young woman standing next to Qin Feng was the Empress of the Great Qin Empire... no, she's now the Empress Dowager. Therefore, they assumed she was just a palace maid by Qin Feng's side, and completely disregarded her presence, brazenly stripping naked and then begging His Majesty for his favor!
It's not their fault. After all, when Xia Lin arrived, Qin Feng was already being intimate with Bai Zhiwei and Yoda Kaori, so the scene was naturally a bit indecent. Fortunately, Hu Xiafei and Yu Wanlin had seen this kind of scene before, so they didn't consider themselves outsiders and were ready to join the fray...
Qin Feng was quite embarrassed. He had already stopped his lewd behavior after Xia Lin came over, but now Hu Xiafei and the others wanted to do it again.
Should we continue?
Qin Feng glanced at Xia Lin, who was looking at him with a half-smile, and gritted his teeth. "Fine, let's continue. What am I afraid of?"
As long as I'm not embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed!
To Qin Feng's surprise, Xia Lin didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she sat down next to him with great interest and started watching. She even took the initiative to point out some rather unusual knowledge to Qin Feng...
Then Hu Xiafei and the others realized that this person was actually Qin Feng's mother, and also the Empress Dowager of the Great Qin Dynasty!
They were almost scared to death on the spot, but fortunately, Charlene did not blame them. She eventually left on her own initiative to handle the matters and arrangements for the visit of the princess of the Noah Empire.
Seeing Xia Lin leave, Qin Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, then casually hugged Bai Zhiwei and the others, saying, "We haven't really had our fill yet, let's play together now!"
"..."
After finally satisfying Bai Zhiwei, Yitian Kaori, Hu Bingjing, and Hu Bingxin, these prospective concubines, Qin Feng got up and planned to take them to take a relaxing bath. After all, they had just had a wild time with all of them, including Yu Wanlin and her daughter, and everyone was still smelling strongly of something.
Although it wasn't very noticeable in a room with incense burning, taking a bath was still quite pleasant!
The problem was that Qin Feng had just been comfortably lying in the bath with Hu Xiafei and the others, enjoying the feeling of his body being completely enveloped by the water, when his mother, Xia Lin, walked in again without any hesitation. Without saying a word, she had the maid help her take off her clothes and then plopped down in the bath.
"That feels so good... Feng'er, you're so lucky. You can just stay in the back and do nothing. I, your mother, will take care of everything for you!"
"How could I not have done it!" Qin Feng said with a straight face. "Mom, didn't you tell me to revitalize the Kelvin family? Haven't I been working hard all along?"
"Hmm, I know you've been working hard." Xia Lin gave a half-smile, then waved to Yu Wanlin, "This little girl looks quite young, and you've already taken advantage of her so early, and with her mother too! You've certainly got some tricks up your sleeve!"
"I picked them up..." Qin Feng naturally didn't hide anything from his mother and briefly explained the situation of Yu Wanlin and her daughter. "Don't underestimate Wanlin just because she's young. She's now a genuine tenth-level expert!"
"!!!"
The next two days were the same. Qin Feng would get up in the morning, make a symbolic appearance at the Xuanwu Hall, burn some paper money for the old emperor lying there, and then just do his own thing and pass the day...
Because he couldn't leave the palace, and there weren't any important political matters for him to handle, Qin Feng would just wander around every day, do some necessary tasks, and then meditate and cultivate. After that, he could play with Bai Zhiwei, Yoda Kaori, the Hu sisters, or Yu Wanlin and her daughter.
In addition, there are the palace maids in Maple Forest Garden. They are all Qin Feng's treasures and his most loyal guards. Of course, Qin Feng wants to train them all as soon as possible...
To Qin Feng's surprise, he had thought his idle days would continue for a few more days, but early on the third day, he received news that Princess Catherine, the third princess of the Noah Empire, had arrived in the capital and formally presented her credentials, and was waiting for Qin Feng to receive her.
So fast?
Since he had nothing planned for the morning, Qin Feng decided to meet the princess of the Noah Empire later in the 'Qianyuan Hall' to see what she was up to...
Moreover, Qin Feng was also somewhat interested in how she had arrived in the capital so quickly. After all, the western border of the Great Qin Empire was not as close to the capital as Qingzhou Port. Even if one rode at full speed and did not rest, it would take more than ten days to travel there. Yet she had arrived in just two days. This was simply too fast!
Sure enough, Princess Octavia Catherine, the third princess from the Noah Empire, was a blonde, blue-eyed Western woman. What attracted Qin Feng most was her surging breasts, which he estimated to be at least a G cup, which was a bit terrifying!
Then, this third princess didn't bring many attendants. She only had two women dressed as guards with her. One looked about the same age as the princess, while the other was an old lady with a full head of white hair...
"I'm genuinely curious." After listening to Princess Catherine Octavia's self-introduction, Qin Feng narrowed his eyes and glanced at the old woman behind her. His intuition told him that this woman was definitely a master, and it was no wonder that this princess dared to come to the Great Qin Empire alone. "Logically speaking, your Noah Empire should have completely severed ties with our Great Qin Empire by now. Besides, I... am I not the thorn in your side and the remnant of the Holy War that you talk about? What are you doing here looking for me?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive my rudeness... In fact, everything our Noah Empire did before was out of necessity!" Princess Catherine bowed slightly. "After all, our Noah Empire is located in the Western Continent, and we really dare not offend the Holy See. Moreover, all of this was ordered by the Pope himself. If we did not obey, I'm afraid we would be completely wiped out by the Holy Cross of the Holy See on charges of treason!"
"If that's the case, why have you come to see me again? Has that old Pope changed his mind?"
“Yes!” Princess Catherine nodded seriously.
"What?" Now it was Qin Feng's turn to be surprised. The old Pope, who had previously been so vehemently opposed to him, had actually changed his mind? This was truly bizarre. Had the sun risen in the west? (The rest of the text appears to be unrelated and possibly machine-generated gibberish.)
“The Pope has indeed changed his mind, perhaps because he received some divine revelation…” Princess Catherine sighed softly, “So he ordered me to come to Qin specifically to express his desire for reconciliation.”
"That's ridiculous!" Qin Feng sneered. "Your Noah Empire sent people to assassinate me before, and we're not done with that yet. Now you come to me saying you want to reconcile. What do you think your Noah Empire is? Why should I listen to you? And let me make this clear: I don't care whether you were forced by the Holy See or not. Since you did the assassination, then you can expect my revenge!"
“We are naturally aware of this,” Princess Catherine said, maintaining her composed demeanor. “Therefore, to demonstrate our sincerity, all of Nataya’s relatives in the Noah Empire who assassinated His Majesty have been executed, including her husband and parents…”
"What did you say?"
Chapter 139: His reputation for lust is known throughout the land
Upon hearing Catherine's words, Qin Feng was so shocked that he stood up abruptly. "You actually killed all of Nataya's relatives?"
I go! !
“We specifically recorded this magical image, Your Majesty can verify it.” Princess Catherine, of course, had no idea what Qin Feng was surprised about. She was a little puzzled, but she didn’t show it. She simply took the magic ball from the young female guard next to her and released the magical image. Sure enough, Qin Feng quickly saw Nataya’s husband, Edmund, and a group of people behind him, all of whom had been hanged alive on the execution rack!
"You..." Qin Feng was practically gritting his teeth at this moment, "Do you think this will make me forget the hatred from before?"
“Of course not, this was just incidental.” Princess Catherine bowed slightly again. “In fact, the gift our Noah Empire is giving His Majesty this time is… me!!”
Well, all I can say is that Qin Feng, the third prince of the Qin Empire, is just too famous!
There was no way around it; before Qin Feng transmigrated here, the Third Prince was already famous. All the countries in the Eastern Continent knew that the Great Qin Empire had a useless prince, and some even considered it a joke.
If it were just ordinary incompetence, that would be one thing, but back then, Qin Feng had all sorts of nicknames: good-for-nothing, idiot, mentally challenged, incompetent, deformed...
However, strictly speaking, what made him famous was actually his womanizing and his inability to live without women.
No one knows who spread the rumor, but the fact that the Third Prince has lived among women since childhood is already common knowledge. This is nothing unusual... After all, how could a prince not have a group of palace maids serving him?
The problem is that all the details of how the Third Prince Qin Feng grew up on a woman's belly were described in vivid detail, and then everyone knew that this prince, who had no skills, had sex with the beautiful palace maids around him several times a day, and with different maids every day. His treatment was no different from that of the emperor!
As everyone knows, rumors are often uncontrollable. They can spread far from their original meaning after only a little bit. This matter was no exception. Later, the rumors became more and more outrageous. Not only was the Third Prince Qin Feng rumored to be a super lecher who couldn't live without playing with dozens of women every day, but even more exaggeratedly, people later said that the old emperor's selection of three thousand beauties every three years was actually for the Third Prince's enjoyment!
It's practically impossible for them not to become famous!
In this situation, I don't need to explain what image Qin Feng has in the eyes of people on the mainland, right?
However, this is precisely why the Holy See was confused and gloated for many years, thinking that their greatest rival, the Kelvin family, would naturally perish. But no one expected that this third prince would suddenly turn the tables...
Because Qin Feng is not at all the incompetent person the rumors suggest; in fact, he has perfectly inherited the Kelvin family's legacy, and his own strength has even reached the tenth rank!
It's no wonder that the Holy See was furious and immediately arranged for Qin Feng to be assassinated after they found out. After all, it's really unpleasant to be treated like a fool for more than ten years.
But the assassination attempt failed...
So the Pope of Light was still furious. He had originally ordered all the countries of the Western Continent to strictly prohibit any dealings with the Great Qin Empire, and was also making other plans to see how to get rid of this thorn in his side. But at this moment, he received news that the Third Prince of Great Qin, Qin Feng, had actually led troops to attack Inazuma!
Well, although the Western Continent's official authorities have no dealings with the Inazuma Empire, this doesn't stop Western Continent merchants from traveling to the Inazuma Four Islands, because Eastern goods are rare and luxurious items in the Western Continent...
Since Inazuma is an island nation, it is much more convenient for these merchants to travel by sea. The only problem is that it takes too much time and the risks at sea are quite high. However, there are actually quite a few people from the Western Continent active in Inazuma. It was through these people that the Holy See of Light learned what Qin Feng was going to do in Inazuma.
The new cabinet of the Inazuma Empire was wiped out in less than half a month after taking office...
The Empress of the Inazuma Empire regained power in less than a month after stepping down, and then wiped out almost all the powerful families in Inazuma, not even sparing her own family, the Chiba family. The Inazuma Empire was awash in blood during this period!
The Inazuma Empire has signed many agreements with the Qin Empire and is now practically a vassal state of the Qin Empire, only nominally maintaining its independence.
Most importantly, all of these things are related to Qin Feng, the third prince of the Great Qin Empire. Although he spent almost all his time traveling and sightseeing in Inazuma, the unrest in Inazuma was undoubtedly quelled. Can you say that he did nothing?
How can it be……
However, the Holy See's focus was not on this, nor did they care about Inazuma's regime. They had no interest in the regime change of a distant Eastern island nation. What they cared about was whether they had the opportunity to eliminate Qin Feng, this 'remnant of the Holy War'.
Unfortunately, even though Qin Feng spent all his time playing around, even though he had all sorts of women every day, and even openly conscripted women to serve him in bed in Japan, seemingly doing absolutely nothing productive, they still had no chance to do anything.
The reason is simple: Qin Feng has too many powerful people around him, especially since they saw Nataya, who is now a Saint Eleventh-level expert!
Ironically, this Saint Eleventh-level expert, who is currently the only one of her kind among humans, is now forced to serve as a slave to the Third Prince Qin Feng, and Qin Feng can even openly molest her in front of many people...
You should know that if there were any other Saint Eleventh-level experts, as long as they weren't like Cowen, they would be the most honored guests in every country they went to. But Nataya is now just Qin Feng's plaything!
What hit them the hardest was that they later discovered that Nataya's daughter, Shirley, was also there, and Qin Feng even often played with the mother and daughter!
Well, Nataya was, after all, an assassin who had tried to kill Qin Feng, so it's understandable that the Third Prince treated her this way. But what about Empress Inazuma, Haruko Yoda?
Who in Inazuma doesn't know that Empress Haruko Yoda is actually the person of the Third Prince of Qin?
Not only her, but also her three daughters...
At this moment, the labels of 'incompetent' or 'useless' that were previously attached to the Third Prince Qin Feng certainly no longer existed, but his 'womanizing' was once again confirmed, even more so than before!
The Holy See of Light had originally planned to use this as an opportunity to eliminate Qin Feng in Inazuma, but at this time, several major events occurred one after another!
The first thing, of course, was the sudden death of Qin Ziming, the old emperor of the Qin Empire!
As expected, the Third Prince Qin Feng had no choice but to end his carefree life in Daoqi and immediately head back. Once he returned to the capital of Great Qin, it would be difficult for the Holy See of Light to continue its actions, especially since the old emperor was dead and there was no clear question of who would become emperor next.
Do you still need to ask?
Given the current situation of the Great Qin Empire, the successor is probably none other than the Third Prince Qin Feng!
The problem is that the status of a prince and an emperor is vastly different. If the Holy See dares to continue its actions, it will face more than just the wrath of the Qin Empire... The Holy See of the Western Continent dares to interfere in the national government of the Eastern Continent and openly attempts to assassinate the emperor. This is not a major event that can be easily explained away!
But the second thing was truly fatal, at least for the Pope of Light.
Because his only son, the one he had chosen to succeed him in the future, was a playboy who spent his days idly and did nothing, he got into a fight with someone at a group party where he frequented brothels and was injured!
Well, I guess everyone can guess by now where this son of a high-ranking official is injured...
Chapter 140: The Noah Empire's Desire for a Marriage Alliance
The injury wasn't a big problem. After all, it was the Holy See of Light, and there were plenty of high-level priests who were best at healing. What was a little external injury?
The problem is, the psychological frustration and resentment were so intense that even though the Pope of Light later slaughtered all the families of those who had clashed with his son outside, it was all for naught. His son still looked at him with disgust and resentment... because this young master was only at the sixth level of strength, far below all his peers!
Although his low strength was related to the young master's increasingly dissolute lifestyle, it was also related to his innate talent. He had been quite serious about cultivation when he was young, but his strength progressed slowly, so he simply gave up and abandoned the effort.
The question is, how will someone with his abilities take over the Church of Light in the future?
Putting aside the question of whether the high-ranking officials of the Vatican agree, the most crucial issue is who he can command in the future if he lacks power.
Therefore, the Pope of Light now has to seriously consider this issue. Unless he wants his only son to meet a tragic end, or simply relinquishes the papacy to someone else, he will inevitably have to do something...
