Just like that, Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran busied themselves in Li Xiaoran’s room. Neither of them left that room, even for meals.

When Zhao Xiu poked her head in, she saw the things on the ground and the papers on the table.

Li Xiaoran, on the other hand, was focused on writing with a pen and paper.

Zhao Xiu knew that Luo Cheng was teaching Li Xiaoran how to read and write, so she thought that the two of them were studying and didn’t disturb them.

Luo Cheng, who knew the inside story, was also amazed by Li Xiaoran time and time again.

At first, the handwriting Li Xiaoran imitated wasn’t very similar, but as she copied it again and again, the words Li Xiaoran wrote were actually exactly the same as those on the imperial decree.

In addition, Luo Cheng asked someone to collect documents in his father’s handwriting. Li Xiaoran chose what she needed and began to copy it.

After the handwriting became very similar, Li Xiaoran began to take out the paper used for the imperial edict and continued to practice writing.

The first time, the words were similar, but the force was different.

The second time, the handwriting was identical, the strokes smooth, and the small details of where the ink landed were also identical.

For the third time, Luo Cheng couldn’t even tell that the words Li Xiaoran imitated were any different from the emperor’s.

For the fourth time, the words were exactly the same.

For the fifth and last time, Li Xiaoran stood in front of the desk and confidently wrote on the imperial edict.

After the ink dried, Luo Cheng took out the imperial edict and looked at Li Xiaoran with admiration.

“Wife, do you know that this ability alone can make countless people go crazy?!

If my brothers find out that you have such an ability, they might kidnap you!”

“Oh really? Then should I write you an imperial edict?! An imperial edict that exempts you from death?” Li Xiaoran blinked.

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was amused.

“Why don’t you write me an imperial edict to ascend the throne?” Luo Cheng asked.

Li Xiaoran glanced at Luo Cheng and said seriously, “Firstly, you don’t want that throne. You don’t care about that throne. Secondly, your current power probably isn’t enough to let the ministers help you rise to the top. Thirdly, I don’t want you to be the emperor. Husband, think about it. The emperor is the most exhausting and miserable position in the world.”

“What do you mean?” Luo Cheng was immediately interested.

“The emperor wakes up earlier than a rooster and sleeps later than anyone else. There is endless work every day and endless problems to deal with. Day after day, year after year, there’s no time to rest at all. Even if you’re seriously ill and encounter a national matter, you have to bear through despite your illness. Not only that, but you also have to compete with the court officials all day long. Not only do you have to distinguish between those loyal and traitorous, but you also have to think of ways to balance power!” Li Xiaoran gave some examples animatedly.

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and asked, “It’s indeed quite complicated and tiring, but being a hedonistic ruler isn’t bad! You don’t have to do anything.

You just have to eat and drink. You also have beautiful women to accompany

you!”

“Husband, if you think about it this way, I can guarantee that you won’t live for long. Even a capable king has to spend a lot of effort to compete with his ministers. How can a muddle-headed and incompetent king defeat all the officials in the court? If that’s the case, the day he loses his life won’t be far. Besides, do you really think having fun with beautiful women is a good job? When women are ruthless, they’re much more ruthless than men. If you’re not careful, your woman will be harmed, your son will be harmed, and the king will be harmed too! Besides, how many women can a king withstand?! Being too pleasure-seeking is courting death!” Li Xiaoran analyzed calmly.

After hearing Li Xiaoran’s analysis, Luo Cheng suddenly felt that she was right.

The emperor’s position was really cumbersome!

Seeing that Luo Cheng understood, Li Xiaoran stood up, took the imperial edict, and placed it in Luo Cheng’s hand.

“I’ve already done everything I can. The rest is up to you, husband! Send this imperial edict out directly!”

Luo Cheng took the imperial decree and thought for a moment before saying, “Wife, our problem has been resolved, but the problem in the capital hasn’t! My father will also issue a decree to the princess of Zhu Lan Kingdom, so this matter has to be resolved from the root!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately laughed.

“Of course. I didn’t expect it to be resolved so easily! When the imperial decree arrives, it’ll be time for us to go to the capital to see your father! By the way, get someone to send a pigeon to spread the news that your father has bestowed me to you. The more people who know, the better. I want all of this to become an established fact and make your father unable to say anything!”

When Luo Cheng heard this, he was immediately amused.

All these years, he didn’t want any ties to the capital and the royal family, so he stayed as far away as possible.

In order to dispel those people’s thoughts, he was even willing to to marry a peasant, but they still didn’t let him off.

Fortunately, the heavens were on his side and brought Li Xiaoran into his life.

Seeing that his wife actually chose to counterattack when faced with the imperial edict sent by his father, Luo Cheng felt excited.

Perhaps he had been wrong!

When there was no way to avoid it, only by defeating the other party could they prevent them from disturbing their lives.

Thinking of this, Luo Cheng’s mind raced.

Since his wife wanted to counterattack, he would accompany her to counterattack his unjust father!

It was time to show his injustice father that he, Luo Cheng, had already grown up. He was no longer that pitiful person who was at his mercy.

After thinking it through, Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran came to an agreement. The couple thought of a way together and began to perfect their first counterattack against the emperor.

With the imperial decree settled, Li Xiaoran could finally have a good night’s sleep.

Li Xiaoran slept from night to noon the next day.

If Luo Cheng hadn’t confirmed that Li Xiaoran’s pulse was stable, Zhao Xiu would have rushed in to wake her up.

Fortunately, Li Xiaoran finally woke up at noon. She seemed very healthy and normal.

That afternoon, Luo Cheng pulled Li Xiaoran to the study and made her imitate an imperial edict again.

Five days later, the capital was in an uproar.

The reason was that Eunuch Zhao, the emperor’s personal eunuch, had actually appeared at the entrance of the Ministry of Rites.

In front of countless commoners, Eunuch Zhao read out the emperor’s imperial decree for Li Xiaoran to be married to Luo Cheng..
