REBIRTH OF THE QUEEN

"Forget it. Let the past pass," said King Shen Hua.

"Ah yes, I sent those gifts for your daughter's wedding, Your Majesty King Fu," added the middle-aged man again who seemed to be starting to touch on the topic he was aiming for.

"And I'm sorry I couldn't attend," he added.

"Oh, it is okay. Don't say things like that, Your Majesty King Shen. My daughter's wedding was indeed a sudden one. So I didn't have enough time to spread out invitations," Emperor Fu Qing replied.

"This is all because of her request," he said again.

Emperor Shen Hua just smiled at those words.. "If this incident hadn't happened, maybe we would have become in-laws by now," he said then laughed loudly, as did Emperor Fu Qing.

"Ah yes, by the way where are new brides? I haven't seen them since yesterday," King Shen asked.

"They're going somewhere. And will come back later."

"Hmm, it's a shame I can't congratulate them in person."

"Ah, it's fine, King Shen. Bringing wedding gifts personally is already an honor for me in a small Kingdom like this," Emperor Fu Qing replied.

The Zu Kingdom has an area that is not very large when compared to the Oceanna Kingdom. If measured, maybe the area of ​​the Zu kingdom is only half of the territory of the Oceanna Kingdom, not only that, although the Zu kingdom is famous for being rich in natural resources, again it does not mean anything when compared to the Oceanna Kingdom which also has abundant natural resources, especially the wealth of the sea.

Yes, as the name suggests 'Oceanna', the kingdom is bordered by the sea. Even has several islands inhabited by the inhabitants of the kingdom.

If the Zu Kingdom was famous for its forest wealth, then the Oceanna Kingdom was famous for its sea wealth.

The distance between the two kingdoms is slightly far apart and is mediated by several small kingdoms.

"Don't say things like that, I visited here also for other purposes," said King Shen Hua still with a smile on his face.

Emperor Fu Qing's brow furrowed faintly, apparently, his guess was correct. There's no way the Leader of such a great empire would visit him personally just to bring gifts.

Emperor Fu Qing smiled, "Really? I am lucky that a Leader like you has an interest in my little kingdom," the middle-aged man said no less kindly.

"Ah, it's nothing. I just wanted to convey my daughter's wish. I'm visiting not as the Lord of the Oceanna Kingdom, but as a Father, King of Fu."

"So let's just act casual, talk casually as parents," King Shen Hua added again. Meanwhile, Prince Shen Zue just silently listened to the conversation of the two middle-aged men.

The Prince had no desire to visit the Zu Royal Palace, because if he also went with his father then the royal throne would be temporarily vacant, just only his younger sister insisted and said that they would keep their departure a secret, so did the Queen, and as a result, he ended up following his father here, all because of his affection for his sister, Princess Li.

"If I may know, what is it?" asked Emperor Fu Qing curiously. In his heart, he kept praying that what King Shen Hua wanted was not something that was beyond his ability or reach.

"My daughter, Shen Li visited here a while ago and he has already met your daughter and her husband, His Majesty the King of Fu," said King Shen then remained silent for a few seconds.

Hearing that, one of King Fu Qing's eyebrows raised faintly, but only briefly. He had no idea what the middle-aged man would say to him.

"And it seems that my daughter has an interest in your son-in-law, the King of Fu," said King Shen while he noticed the change in the expression on the face of his interlocutor.

"If you please, my only daughter, wants to be the second wife of your daughter's husband, Fu Xie Lan," he added.

As if struck by lightning, Emperor Fu Qing was speechless.

Even Qiao and Lim who were standing behind him nearly fell backward upon hearing that Oceanna Kingdom Leader's request.

Indeed, when in the human race, having more than one spouse has become commonplace. But it only applies to men, having more than one wife is very common in society.

Not only that, if a woman offers herself to be a second, third, and so on, then it will be an honor for the man.

Having many wives is also a matter of pride in front of society. And those who have only one partner tend to be called stupid and shameful.

Instantly Emperor Fu Qing's expression became tense. Even though the habits that exist in people's lives are like that, it doesn't mean that he is willing it. Let's say he was greedy for not allowing Gu Yi to have another wife, all these things he did because of his affection for his daughter, Fu Xie Lan. And Gu Yi agreed to that.

If Emperor Shen Hua has a purpose like that, what should he say? The goodwill offered by another kingdom to his son-in-law, if it was rejected especially if the kingdom that refused was a small kingdom like the Zu Kingdom, then the end might be bad.

Seeing Emperor Fu Qing silent, Emperor Shen Hua cleared his throat then smiled faintly.

"Previously I didn't expect my daughters will either. So far, there have been many who wanted to apply her and even make her Queen, but none of it was accepted by the girl," said King Shen with a rough sigh.

Emperor Fu Qing's feelings sank hearing all that. He didn't know how to reply.

"I heard your son-in-law is a Wizard? Maybe because of that, Princess Li wants to become his second wife"

"Is you not afraid?" Emperor Fu Qing finally made a sound.

Hearing that question, Shen Hua burst out laughing, even a tear almost escaped his eyelids.

"Why should I be afraid?"

"I even know some people from their Race," Shen Hua retorted with laughter.

"Daddy?" Even Prince Shen Zue was surprised to learn that fact. Let alone Emperor Fu Qing and his two personal servants, Qiao and Lim.

Emperor Shen Hua muffled his laughter, then cleared his throat softly, seemingly normalizing the expression on his face.

"I'm saying this because soon we'll be close family, isn't it?" he said very confidently, the way he spoke was as if the person he was talking to was the biological parent of the man who her daughter wanted.

"And since you are here, then convey my good intentions to your son-in-law."
