The Transmigration Survival Guide

Sir, I am very sorry, but Her Majesty does not feel well and will not see guests at night. The lady-in-waitings suspicion over my sky-blue cape, thinking that I was a liar using the cape as a disguise, was painfully obvious.
I knew that Sisi wasnt in good shape at the moment. It happened to be my fault for that matter. I, therefore, could understand her refusing to see anyone at night. Still, I was absolutely certain shed see me. Whenever a lady-in-waiting would stop me from seeing Sisi when I wanted to see her, she could kiss the rear palace goodbye.
I sighed and conveyed, Youre new, right? Go and call the head lady-in-waiting over. Shell know what to do when she sees me. I want to see your head lady-in-waiting. If I dont get to see Sisi now and she finds out, you can deal with the consequences tomorrow.
Though the lady-in-waiting didnt know who I was, the fact that I addressed Sisi by name and asked to see the head lady-in-waiting suggested that I wielded considerable power. She called over a guard, who looked at me awkwardly because he recognised me, but he couldnt defy a lady-in-waiting. The lady-in-waiting headed into the rear palace. The head lady-in-waiting nervously came running over and bowed deeply. Panting ever so slightly, she expressed, Sorry, Lord Lin, this lady-in-waiting has only just been assigned here and, therefore, does not recognise you. Please enter. Her Majesty is not asleep yet. We have notified her of your visit. She is happy and waiting for you.
All right.
I entered the rear palace, cape fluttering gently as if it was boasting about its colour. I could faintly hear the head lady-in-waiting lecture the new lady-in-waiting trembling on the staircase I just ascended, He is Queen Sisis lover. The next time you see him, do not stop him no matter what, understood?!
In Sisis hand was a book that resembled a large rock, yet she held it gracefully. She narrowed her eyes and gently looked up with the smile of a wife greeting her husband home from work, hair splayed out: Dongqing, youre here to see me, are you?
Yes, Sisi. I shut the door then.
Stroking her belly, Sisi queried, If you came to do it with me, youre here at the wrong time because I have our child now. In saying that, have you thought of a name for our child, or were you planning to leave it to me?
Ill leave it to you. Sisi, I came to talk to you about what happened with Achilles.
Not too happy about it, Sisi frowned: You and I have been separated for so long. I was also worried sick about you when I heard you ran into trouble at the Demon Kings castle, only for you to start talking about Achilles as soon as you came here? Im feeling grouchy now, Dongqing. You best change what youre about to say.
Angering Sisi most certainly wasnt wise. I went up to her and gently clasped her face. Smiling wryly, she draped her arms around my shoulders and kissed me. Sisis kiss was assertive as I remembered it. It felt much better than banging my teeth on Veiryas.
Veirya was unlike Leah. She, therefore, wouldnt catch Sisis scent even if I did have it on me. Nevertheless, that wasnt a reason for me to cheat. I didnt cheat; I just wanted to cheer Sisi up.
Sisi poked her tongue at me after we ended our brief kiss. Simpering, she stated, Fine. I can accept that. Now, we can discuss the matter. You wanted to talk about Achilles, right? I, too, feel its a pity that we lost Achilles for Ive lost a competent retainer. In addition, Im struggling to keep up with all of the work in the imperial palace nowadays. In light of those things, Dongqing, Ill provide you with a house in the imperial capital. Stay in the imperial capital and assist me.
Indeed, I plan to stay in the imperial capital as Achilles left his assets behind to me, and they all happen to be in the imperial capital. Ill be moving to the imperial capital in the future. Before that, however, Sisi, I need to deal with it.
Are you saying that the businessmen in the South did something wrong? I surmise they didnt expect Achilles lover to die there, correct? They werent targeting Achilles; it was just an accident. I believe that the businessmen would be willing to compensate him if he gave them the chance. He was too impulsive, sadly.
Are you suggesting that theres no need to avenge him and her since hes dead?
Is there a point? Achilles is dead; he cant see the fruits of your revenge. Also, if you seek vengeance, then that means youll be opposing the businessmen in the South. Thats not a profitable deal. I didnt think youd help Achilles.
Thats because Achilles is my friend. I virtually dont have any friends, and I cant forget his expression when he died before my eyes. Sisi, surely you know about the shipyard in the South. As Queen, its not wise for you to directly get involved. Now, Im going to go and procure the shipyard to then pass to you. Consider it your gift to me. What do you think?
While I should refuse as I cant see how would succeed, because you are Lin Dongqing, youre always able to give me pleasant surprises. On the other hand, youre the man I love, so I have to help you. Ill support everything you do. If you fail, Ill protect you, okay? Having said that, I hope you abide by the agreement. We may be in love, but you must keep your word.
