Cough cough!
Ling Chen nearly choked on his tea; did the other person see him sneaking a glance just now?
"No, no, I don't want to at all."
Ling Chen lowered his head and said against his true feelings, for the person before him was the Emperor of the Central Dynasty, the revered woman of the Nine Provinces Land. If she accused him of disrespecting the sacred visage, he wouldn't be able to bear it.
"Even if I can't see Your Majesty's true face, I know Your Majesty must be of unparalleled beauty, the most beautiful woman in all the world."
Ling Chen didn't forget to flatter Empress Yun Yao. He had heard from his mother Liu Xiling when he was young that all girls liked to be told they were pretty, so saying this should be correct.
"Hehe... Unparalleled beauty, the most beautiful woman in all the world?"
