My Wife is Unbeatable in the Whole World, Touch Me If You Dare!
Chapter 525 - 346 The Empress's Choice

In Zhao Country, a strong kiss constitutes "indecent assault" and is punishable by less than five years of imprisonment or detention depending on the severity of the offense.

This is the law that Li Nuo just modified.

It applies to both men and women.

Without his consent, the Empress had forcibly kissed him.

She had broken the law.

Due to the minor severity, she would be detained for more than five days but less than ten days, and fined.

This time, Li Nuo didn't give her any hint about it.

But he had no chance to verify whether the offense would hold, as Yiren strode in, forcibly separating them, glaring at them, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Li Nuo looked at Yiren and said, "If I said the Emperor was helping me with my cultivation, would you believe it?"

A moment later.

Li Nuo sat on the steps outside Zhaoyang Palace, glanced back, and saw the palace doors tightly closed with no sound coming from within. He had no idea what they were discussing inside.

That the Empress would help him in this way was something he hadn't expected.

But precisely because it was unexpected, it might actually be effective.

Being forcibly kissed was no big deal, it wasn't the first time. Last time, Li Nuo had done it to save her, this time she did it to help Li Nuo.

They were even, one for one.

Inside Zhaoyang Palace, Song Yiren stood with her hands on her hips, angrily saying, "Even if you're helping him with his cultivation, can't you use other methods!"

Zhao Zhiyi shook her head and said, "We've already tried other methods, but they were ineffective. This was the last resort."

Song Yiren blushingly and angrily said, "But you still can't, can't..."

Zhao Zhiyi looked at her and said, "To express my apologies, I will help plan your wedding. Although I don't know how grand your sister's wedding was when she married him, I guarantee your wedding will be even more splendid..."

"..."

Song Yiren's lips moved, but the angry words wouldn't come out. She quietly asked, "Did you, did you overhear us talking?"

Zhao Zhiyi said, "I overheard by accident."

Song Yiren stared at the ground, her thoughts racing.

He should have been her husband alone, she should have been the first lady of the Li family. Even though someone had cut in line, she still hoped her wedding could be the most grand and prestigious among them.

But she also knew that this wish was hard to achieve in Daxia.

Li Anning and Song Jiaren, Li Anning's wedding, was organized by the Emperor and the court of Daxia.

Even if her wedding was prepared by the court, it could not be more grand than that of a Princess of Daxia.

But it was different in Zhao Country.

Zhao Zhiyi was the Emperor of Zhao Country. What she said was the rule, and this wish had a real chance of being realized in Zhao Country.

After a long silence, Song Yiren pressed her lips together, looked at Zhao Zhiyi, and said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were helping him with his cultivation. My attitude just now wasn't very good, don't mind it..."

Li Nuo had been sitting on the steps for a while when the doors behind him opened.

Yiren and the Empress walked out hand in hand, leaving Li Nuo dumbfounded.

The relationship between women can sometimes be really hard to understand.

Zhao Zhiyi didn't have the sociable character of a Phoenix, therefore, even after spending half a year in Zhao Country meeting Yiren nearly every day, they hadn't developed any friendship. Instead, because of this conflict, they were now hand in hand...

Was this what people mean by not fighting, not meeting?

The Empress had forcibly kissed Li Nuo without his consent. According to the new law in Zhao Country, she should be detained for at least five days, but Li Nuo, as the victim, was willing to forgive her. She only needed to reflect on her actions in the Imperial Study Room for one two-hour period and be mindful next time.

At the moment she stepped into the Imperial Study Room, the law code changed.

As expected, her portrait appeared in the law code.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at Li Nuo and asked, "Is this acceptable?"

Li Nuo nodded and said, "Although the cultivation improvement is very minor, it is indeed useful..."

In truth, because his motives weren't pure, his cultivation hadn't improved at all, but her portrait in the law code was much more useful than a mere cultivation improvement.

Song Yiren then remembered something and looked at Li Nuo with a mysterious expression, saying, "Guess who I just saw on the street!"

Li Nuo asked, "Who?"

Song Yiren said, "The old man who told my fortune!"

Actually, she had intended to inform Li Nuo about this earlier but was interrupted by that incident.

Li Nuo's expression changed slightly. Based on the fortune-telling result that was given to Yiren, there was no doubt that the old man must be a Sixth Realm Yin Yang master.

A Sixth Realm Yin Yang master has a unique ability to transfer their own lifespan to others, which works well with the law code's ability. Li Nuo had to find a way to obtain this.

The State Preceptor of Zhao Country was also a Sixth Realm Yin Yang master, but his status was too special; he had devoted his life to Zhao Country, and even the Empress had to show him enough respect.

Li Nuo couldn't target him, or it would affect the Empress's reputation.

But this Sixth Realm Yin Yang master was a perfect target.

Zhao Zhiyi looked at Yiren and asked, "Who are you talking about?"

Li Nuo replied, "A very powerful Yin Yang master, his cultivation might not be weaker than the State Preceptor..."

After hearing this, Zhao Zhiyi contemplated for a moment and asked, "A Sixth Realm Yin Yang master, if they give it their all, can they predict the outcome of a power struggle in advance?"

Li Nuo said, "It depends on the country. If it's a small country, a Sixth Realm Yin Yang master sacrificing some lifespan can predict it, but they absolutely can't predict the fortune of the Five Great Dynasties..."
