After marrying Karron, Xia Lin entered a carefree life as a queen. As the queen, Xia Lin now wielded the same power as Karron. Moreover, since Karron truly cared about Xia Lin, he was now more willing to heed Xia Lin's advice.
Xia Lin understood that dealing with Karron required a gentle touch rather than a forceful one. So, whenever Xia Lin disagreed with Karron, he would appeal to his emotions and reason. Gradually, Karron began to take Xia Lin's words to heart. Although deep down, he still adhered to the concept of resolving problems through violence, his way of acting had become much milder than before.
Later, Xia Lin discovered that a major reason for Karron's mindset was that he had grown up with his grandfather, the previous - previous emperor. Unlike Karron's two fathers, his grandfather was a complete martial - arts advocate. He believed that the whole world should submit to the Romant Empire. During his reign, he had killed many people, including numerous nobles, and was known as the "Bloody Emperor".
After Karron's grandfather passed away, Karron's father, Noren, only reigned for a few years. He found it uninteresting and even spent less time with Aichen. At that time, Karron was already old enough and eager to become the emperor. Naturally, Karron ascended to the throne with an anti - social outlook on life.
With the most powerful authority and the most noble status in the entire empire, he could casually decide others' fates. Everyone feared him, flattered him, and worshiped him. As a result, Karron's outlook on life became even more distorted.
As for Aichen and Noren, although they had advised Karron, Karron always had a rebellious attitude towards his two fathers. He would pretend to listen but still do things his own way. Aichen and Noren couldn't use force on Karron either. After all, Karron was the emperor, and they had to consider his dignity. Even though they were his parents, the emperor's status was the highest! Additionally, since Karron was actually a capable monarch and the military and economic strength of the empire had improved during his reign, Aichen and his spouse, who essentially believed in the supreme status of the royal family and the absolute authority of the monarch, simply let their son be.
"Xiaolin, it's really great that Karron married you. You might actually change Karron!"
Aichen said with relief as he patted Xia Lin on the shoulder. From this moment on, he whole - heartedly accepted Xia Lin. He would definitely protect this child!
Xia Lin smiled shyly. Under Aichen's approving gaze, he felt encouraged.
Aichen stroked his chin and thought for a while. "Xia Lin, have you ever considered going to school?"
Xia Lin was taken aback. "Go to school?" He shook his head. "Forget it. I'm the queen now and don't have that much time. Oh, right, Mom. Master Pissman said he would give me lessons for a few hours every week from now on. So I've officially recognized Master Pissman as my teacher."
Aichen was surprised. Pissman hadn't told him about this. Although Master Pissman seemed gentle on the surface, he was actually quite hard to approach. For him to be willing to take Xia Lin as his student meant that he truly appreciated Xia Lin. Maybe he had foreseen Xia Lin's future and knew that he would surely become an excellent queen!
"Okay. Actually, even if I wanted you to go to school, I'm afraid Karron wouldn't agree. He'd never bear to let you live on campus!"
