Years later.

In the Golden Palace, Theodora had just finished dealing with the backlog of government affairs and breathed a sigh of relief.

Little Princess Anna soon stepped forward obediently and massaged her mother's temples on both sides.

"This emperor deserves no interest." Theodora complained, "It's like a tool man of the Empire, with countless things to attend to every day." Sometimes I even feel like it's better to be a mercenary. ”

Anna didn't say anything, because she knew that her mother was just casually saying that she was going to be a mercenary...... Mi'er's mother must have raised her hands to welcome her, but is she willing, mother?

"Your father, that bastard, is obviously a co-emperor, but he only sees people for three months a year." Theodora quickly deflected his anger, "It's a shame for the Empire." No, the crumbs of the empire. ”

"Father should be at Mother Mi'er's right now." Anna said thoughtfully.

"I must be working them again." Theodora sneered, "Mia said she wanted a son...... Hmph, don't I want to? I'll be sure to ...... him next time."

She suddenly realized that she shouldn't say this in front of her daughter, so she stopped her mouth in time.

Father, it's really hard. Little Anna couldn't help but think, why do you marry so many mothers? I don't see each other a few times a year, I have to soothe everyone's emotions when I run around, and my body is exhausted and prostration, how pitiful.

"Your Majesty." Lady Valomina, the Imperial Ink Officer, came in from outside, "Lord Medea has arrived. ”

Today is the day of the state meeting between the Helsingh Empire in the north and the Solomonic Empire in the East, and His Majesty Theodora personally receives the Red Witches in the north and exchanges a series of opinions on the regions of Darcia and Sarmatia.

In fact, since Empress Theodora's return to the throne, imperial policy has been officially defined as "attacking from the west to the east".

In short, a tacit understanding with the Holy See on science and technology will be established to establish cooperation limited to the exchange of technology; Politically, a diplomatic alliance with the Holy Solomonic Empire in exchange for long-term stability on the land lines of the West; and military cooperation with the Helsingør Empire in the north, where a large number of Norman mercenaries traveled to Constantinople every year.

The Empire's military focus was on the east, with a focus on maintaining the line of Asia Minor and Syria and securing dominance over the Eastern Mediterranean. Although there have been no major wars in the near future, anyone with a discerning eye knows that the Storm Empress's next target is the Mamluk monarchy in the Southern Continent.

The Mamluk monarchy, which originated from the uprising of a group of pharaonic slave guards, is currently a militaristic state with a military junta structure. Not only is there no legal principle of rule in the general righteousness, but the rule is basically not popular with the locals, and it is a soft persimmon that is relatively easy to pinch.

The Seljuk Empire also planned to march south, but then the Storm Empress came out and had to leave Asia Minor to retreat to Baghdad, where she fought a long-term battle with the Imperial army in the desert region.

Before Asia Minor completely rebuilt production, if the battle line was stretched too long, it was easy to suffer a military defeat if the supply line was cut off, so Theodora was not in a hurry to continue the attack on the East, but turned around and went to Sidlifa, intending to hire a group of Norman mercenaries to come over and consume the strength of the Seljuk Empire in the East.

Medea quietly arrived with little Lilith. The Scarlet Witch is a powerful demigod herself, so she doesn't bring a large number of escorts, but visits her daughter alone.

Theodora received two guests in a grand manner at the Golden Consul Palace.

After eating, Medea wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin and looked at Theodora with a smile.

Theodora gave her daughter Anna a look and asked her to go out to play.

"Let's go, Sister Anna." Lilith, an eleven-year-old succubus girl, came to six-year-old Anna and gracefully stretched out a hand.

"Thank you, Sister Lilith." Anna put her hand in her palm and jumped out of her chair.

The two walked hand in hand to the imperial garden of the harem.

"Sister Lilith, do you want to see my drawing?" Anna jumped up and down to the middle of the courtyard, where her unfinished painting was located.

"No need, Anna." Lilith said with a wave of her hand, and sat down arrogantly on the edge of the courtyard steps, resting her left leg on her right.

Anna blinked, knowing that the sister was not in a good mood, so she wittily took out the delicate fried honey balls from the tray next to the easel, and handed them to Lilith.

Lilith took a bite of the balls, and the sweet taste soaked her taste buds, and the whole person's mood immediately improved.

"Look you're smart, too, Anna." So she said, "I'll just tell you." ”

"Did you know you have a sister named Kaylal?"

"Kaylal......" Anna nodded, "It's Mier's mother's sister, right?" ”

"Mother Mi'er?" Lilith frowned and corrected her, "It's Aunt Mi'er!" ”

"Auntie?"

"Auntie means my mother's sister." Lilith sneered, "The title of mother is not something that can be given casually. Otherwise people will think your admission is cheap, understand? ”

Anna nodded incomprehensibly, thinking that this was for the mothers to exchange the favor for her favor. Sister Lilith, so shrewd.

"In short, before coming to the Dongluo Empire, my mother took me on a trip to the Mediterranean Sea and met my father and Aunt Mi'er." Lilith continued to fold her arms and said with a cold little face, "Aunt Mi'er's daughter, that sister named Kaylaer, actually dares to confront me in person!" ”

"Against you?" Anna asked, puzzled.

"She asked me if I had a phobia of men!" Lilith stood up in a rage, "How can my dignified succubus queen's own daughter have male phobia? This is knowingly asking, humiliating me around the bush! ”

Anna:..................

That sister may just want to know if androphobia is hereditary, after all, her mother Mia plans to have another brother......

"I've inquired clearly, next week is the meeting time on Hearthfire Island, and all my aunts and fathers will meet in Hearthfire Island at that time." Lilith continued, "I have a plan to establish my majesty as an older sister in Kayla's heart, Anna, will you cooperate with me? ”

"What's the plan?" Anna asked gently.

"I can't tell you the specifics yet." Lilith waved her hand, "Unless you confirm you want to join." Of course, it's okay not to join, if you plan to be a good baby for the rest of your life and let your younger siblings look down on you. ”

It's a very clumsy agitation method. Anna thought to herself, but the majesty of being a sister......

imagined the next group of younger siblings around her, constantly calling "Sister Anna", and she was a little moved. Besides, with his own wit, even if Lilith had put some calculations in the plan, couldn't he see it?

"I think I can try." Anna said with a smile.
