Good Intentions Gone Wrong, the Underestimated Child of Fortune! (Please Subscribe and Vote with Monthly Tickets)

Tuoba Zhen had grown so used to being invincible that something was wrong with his head. Li Chen did not think the Empress had something wrong with hers as well.

As luck would have it, the Empress really had entertained that idea. When she arrived at the front, she had proposed fighting Li Chen before both armies to blunt the Heavenly Strategy Dynasty's momentum.

The Empress possessed an inexplicable confidence. After all, she was undefeated within her own country, and that unparalleled confidence left her convinced she would never lose to anyone.

But every officer and soldier, including the state preceptor and the heads of the other lineages, urged the Empress not to do it. Had Tuoba Zhen's lesson not been harsh enough?

Winning would be a good thing, but if she lost, they might lose even Sacred Mountain City, their impregnable natural barrier.

Hearing the officers and soldiers say this, the Empress remained angry for a long time, convinced they were looking down on her.

They kept explaining that it was not because they lacked confidence in her. The Empress was unquestionably invincible, but Li Chen was a terribly cunning man who might resort to trickery. It would be disastrous if she fell into his trap.

They were doing everything they could to spare her feelings.

Not every emperor was so easy to serve.
