Reborn on the wedding night, the regent princess said she knew she was wrong

Long Tianque returned triumphantly with his mighty army. The people of the capital lined the streets to welcome him, and cheers resounded through the sky.

After settling the army, Long Tianque went straight to the palace to meet the emperor.

After reporting the situation on the battlefield, Long Tianque carefully took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xuan Ming.

Xuan Ming took the letter, unfolded it slowly, and looked at the densely written words, but he remained silent.

Long Tianque stood quietly in the center of the imperial study, with his head slightly lowered, without any words or movements. The whole room was filled with a suffocating atmosphere of silence.

After a long time, Xuan Ming suddenly swung his arm and threw the letter in his hand hard on the table, making a crisp "pa" sound.

Then he snorted coldly. The sound was like a thunder exploding in Long Tianque's ears, causing him, who was already feeling a little guilty, to involuntarily lower his head a little more.

At this moment, Xuan Ming shouted loudly: "Someone come!"

The eunuch waiting outside the door immediately responded and bowed his head to wait for the order. "Go and bring a chair and let General Long sit down."

Xuan Ming gave the order expressionlessly.

Soon, an exquisite sandalwood chair was moved into the imperial study and placed not far from the desk.

"Come and sit down. The chessboard has been prepared. You will play a game of chess with me today. We will have dinner in the palace later." Xuan Ming said, stood up and left the desk, walking steadily to the chessboard placed by the window.

Long Tianque hesitated for a moment, then raised his head, walked quickly to the chessboard, thanked according to etiquette, and sat down carefully.

As soon as he sat firmly, Long Tianque couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart and asked, "Your Majesty, are you... not blaming me anymore?"

As soon as he said this, he regretted being so rash, but it was too late to take it back.

Xuan Ming did not answer his question directly, but reached out to pick up a white chess piece and gently placed it on the chessboard.

Then, he looked up at Long Tianque and asked, "Blame you? What should I blame you for? The person who should be blamed is Mo Beichen. This guy has clearly returned to the capital, but he didn't even say hello to me. It's obvious that he did it on purpose. I guess he still hates the fact that I invited him to the wedding banquet."

Just as Long Tianque was about to open his mouth to explain, he was interrupted mercilessly by Xuan Ming: "Alright, alright, stop mentioning that guy. It's really disappointing! Let's talk about you instead." Xuan Ming said with disgust on his face.

However, this did not make Long Tianque feel angry or embarrassed, but instead made him burst into laughter.

After all, they are good brothers who grew up together.

They know each other's character and temperament very well.

Therefore, when Long Tianque heard Xuan Ming speaking in this tone, he instantly understood what the other party really wanted to express behind his words.

Today, the once-dreaded Ghost Continent and Void Continent have been reduced to ashes, and they can no longer pose any substantial threat to the Xumi Continent.

As for the Xuan Cang Continent and the Sheng Qiong Continent, for some unknown reason, the Xuan Cang Continent always stood on the side of the Xumi Continent from the beginning, and the Sheng Qiong Continent also became friendly with the Xumi Continent because it had the help of the Xumi King in this war. Now, the first continent and the second continent have established a deep friendship with the Xumi Continent, which is of great benefit to the Xumi Continent.

As for the third continent, Junlin Continent, it has always been known for its love of peace and never took the initiative to provoke a war. When it heard that Xumi Continent was attacked by other continents, it generously sent a large number of precious supplies.

Although this move may seem a bit superficial, it at least shows that they have no intention of making enemies with the Xumi Continent.

Looking at the fifth continent, the sixth continent and the eighth continent, they have maintained an attitude of standing by and watching from the sidelines from beginning to end.

When they learned that our two continents have a close relationship with Xumi Continent, they all gave up any bad ideas they might have had.

However, the situation in the Netherworld Continent is slightly more complicated.

At that time, when the Ghost Continent and the Void Continent suddenly sent troops to attack the Xumi Continent, the Nether Abyss Continent actually got involved and contributed its part.

What's even more difficult is that, to this day, the Sixth Prince of the Dark Abyss Continent is still being held in the hands of the Xumi Continent. This matter is really a headache, after all, it involves a sensitive issue between the two continents.

"But from what I've seen, Xumi Continent is very powerful and wise, and I'm sure they will be able to properly handle this difficult problem."

Long Tianque sat leisurely in front of the chessboard, holding the white piece in one hand and tapping the table with the other, while methodically describing to Xuan Ming the current situation of the ten major continents.

In particular, the attitudes and actions taken by other continents towards the Xumi Continent were explained in great detail.

Xuan Ming listened quietly. When Long Tianque finished speaking, he suddenly raised his head, stared at him with a sharp gaze, and said in a cold voice: "General Long is so arrogant that he even dares to speculate what I am thinking."

Upon hearing this, Long Tianque was stunned for a moment, then burst into a hearty laugh: "Alas, Your Majesty, you really embarrassed me. I am just a rough man with courage but no strategy. How can I have the ability to guess Your Majesty's intentions? These thoughts are just some of my own foolish opinions based on my own shallow knowledge. I dare to tell you, Your Majesty, just hoping to get your guidance and correction."

However, Xuan Ming did not buy it. He just raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with a smile: "I did not ask about the Xumi Continent at first. Not only did I not ask, but I also specifically said that I did not want to talk about him. But General Long took the initiative to mention him. General Long, is this hypocritical?"

Long Tianque shook his head helplessly, sighed deeply, and slowly put the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box. He complained with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, it's boring to say that. You clearly know that I am a humble minister with limited knowledge and talent, but you still use words to bully me. It's really too much."

Xuan Ming raised his lips when he heard this, "Nonsense, your knowledge is not much different from mine, and your chess skills are even more exquisite. If you hadn't chosen to go to the border, you would have been able to sit in the position of Prime Minister now."

Long Tianque continued to pick up the chess pieces and began to think about where to move next. "Later, when I grew up, I became more interested in recovering the territory and protecting the peace of my Xuancang Continent. We agreed that you would be in charge of the interior and I would be in charge of the exterior. Don't change your mind."

"You just feel confident."

"That's also because you, Your Majesty, are giving me face."

"Oh, have you learned how to flatter?"

"No, no, Your Majesty, please give me a definite answer on how to deal with the Nether Abyss Continent."

"Haven't you figured out what I meant? Why are you still asking me?"

"Tsk, after all, you are the one who made this emperor."

"How about you try to be the emperor?"

"Thank you, but I refuse. I'm not good at playing fancy words."
