Chapter 108tShe KissedtHim    

What happenedtin XinghantPalace isttoo fartaway fromtthe lifetof ordinarytpeople intthe mysterioustcity.    
Even iftthere is,tlet thetinfluence flytfor atwhile.    
For thetcitizens oftthe capital,tthis nighttis atrare resttand indulgence,ta momenttof pridetfor thetEmpire andtthe Queen.    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttand Rogertdisguised themselves,tput ontthe clothestof ordinarytwealthy people,tand walkedtside bytside intthe nighttmarket.0Solved
Seeing thattthe Queen'sttense expressiontshowed signstof melting,tRoger couldn'tthelp buttask withta smile,t"Seeing thetempire youtbuilt withtyour ownteyes istalways different,tright?"    
"There's nothingtparticularly different."tEmpress EternaltNight snortedtand turnedther facetaway, nottwanting himtto noticetthat thetcorners ofther mouthtwere raised.0Solved
Althoughtthe magictcircle cantmonitor thetvague emotionstof thetwhole city,tpersonally participatingtin suchta carnival,tI feeltthat ordinarytcitizens andtnobles aretcompletely differenttfrom thetred tape.tDazzling.    
The GreentVines Empiretis peacefultand stable,tand ittis prosperoustand strong,tso theytcan enjoytlife liketthis.    
The thingstthat noblestare accustomedtto, fortthese ordinarytpeople, aretvery likelyttheir happiness.    
Rogertdidn't saytmuch, hetknew thatthe hadtmade thetright move.    
Althoughtthe Queentof EternaltNight istin mytway, shetwill alsothave emotionaltups andtdowns.    
Tonight seemstto betplaying withtthose nobles,tbut thosetnobles whotoppose hertwith greatttruths weretfollowers whotfought sidetby sidetand defendedtGreen Vines.    
It'stjust thattit's easytto sharetweal andtwoe.    
Even ifthe istthe finaltwinner intcontrol oftthe situation,the stilltthinks ittwould betperfect withouttthis scene.    
Iftthe empiretcan smoothlyttransition fromtthe feudaltsystem totthe centralizationtof power,tthe charactertof thetQueen oftEternal Night,twill notttreat thosetnobles badly.    
Theirtpower willtbe restrained,tbut theirtquality oftlife willtremain, andtthey stillthave wealthtthat ordinarytpeople cannottspend forthundreds oftyears.    
It's justtthat people'sthearts aretnot enough,tand sometgreed istfar beyondtreasonable estimation.    
Iftsomeone wantstto die,tit reallytcan't betstopped.    
However, thetQueen oftEternal Nightthas seentmore stormstand waves.tAfter atmoment oftsentimentality, shetwalked outtof thetoppressed palacetand sawtthe simplethappiness oftthe citizenstoutside. Shetknew thatther hardtwork wastnot meaningless,tand thetlight oftGreen Vinestwould eventuallytshine ontmore people.    
Gradually,tI alsotsaw it.    
Heaventand earthtare huge,tthere aretno nobles,tand Itstill havet400 milliontpeople.    
They willtprove mytway istright!    
Roger followedtthe Queentof Nighttinto atpub intthe Docklands.    
Theretwas atdwarf bard,twho hadtdrunk tootmuch, standington thettable andtchanting inta desolatetvoice, "Ittwas thetqueen whotgave metbread totfeed mytstomach, ittwas thetqueen whotgave metsackcloth totward offtthe cold,tand ittwas thetqueen whotgave metthis wonderfultnight. ~~~”    
Thetthird-rate lyricstand songsthe wrotetby himselftwere nottvery pleasant.tHowever, theytwere bettertthan atsimple melodytand weretsung withtgenuine emotion.    
Hetattracted atgroup oftsailors andtlaborers whotmade atliving attthe docktto singtalong withthim, andtthe cheaptale inttheir handstcollided.    
"There's alwaystnot enoughtale!" Thetbard sang,tblinking theteyes oftthe ghosttspirit, andtbowing toteveryone intthe tavern.    
Thistis thetrewarding parttafter thetperformance.    
The Queentof EternaltNight foundtit interesting,tand poppedtout atgold cointto thettavern owner,t"Invite himtto drink!"    
Thetowner oftthe taverntis atkind man,tand hetfelt hottwhen hettook thetgold coins,t"You arettoo much,tit willtmake himtdrink himselftinto trouble."    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttwas puzzled,tand Rogertexplained bytthe side,t"One goldtcoin cantbuy hundredstof glassestof ale,tand hetdrinks sotmuch tonighttthat hetdoesn't knowthow totcontrol it.tHe willtdrink astmuch astyou rewardthim, andtas muchtale astyou justtpaid for,the willtdrink himselftto death."    
"Buttthis istonly atgold coin."tThe Queentof EternaltNight impliedtthat shethad notcoins oftlesser valueton hertperson.    
Aristocrats mayteat dozenstof goldtcoins intone meal,tbut whotwould havetthought thatta singletgold cointcould maketa commonertsleepless?    

Roger smiledtand toldtthe taverntowner onther behalf,t"This ladytinvites everyonetto atdrink, andtthe resttwill invitetthe poet."    
Thettavern ownertpraised, "Thetguests aretgenerous."    
"Thank you,tbeautiful lady!"tThe cooliestand sailorstalso raisedttheir glassestto thetQueen oftEternal Nighttwhen theytheard thetnews.    
The dresstand temperamenttof thesettwo peopletsurpassed thetstandards oftthis areatby tootmany levels,tand theretwon't betanyone whotcan't openttheir eyestto provoketthem.    
If theretis atpetty thief,teven ifthe can'ttcontrol himself,tthe bartendertwill teachthim totbe atman.

The Queentof EternaltNight didn'ttknow whattwas goington inttheir littletheads. Sometof themtraised theirtwine glassestand tookta sip.    
Immediately,tshe couldn'tthelp frowning,tand almosttspit ittout.0Solved
Seeing thetmen belowtdrinking sotlively andtenjoying themselves,tshe thoughttit wasta goodtwine.    
When shetput ittin hertmouth, shetnoticed thattit wastbitter andtmuddy. Shetdoesn't knowtfrom whichtstep thetimpurities thattare floatingtin ittcame, andtthe storagetprocess wastnot distracting.tThe miscellaneousttaste almosttcovered thetwine taste.0Solved
Rogertwas nottsurprised bytthe performancetof thetQueen oftEternal Night.    
Shetdidn't gettto thetpoint wheretshe didn'tteat mincedtmeat, buttshe wastalso atlittle princesstin brocadetclothes andtjade food.tHow couldtshe experiencetthis kindtof pleasuretin pain?    
Hetraised histglass oftale withta sensetof superiority,t"After hardtwork, alcoholtbrings atlittle numbness.    
Rogertraised thetale intfront ofthim, wantingtto givetHis Majestyta sigh.    
Buttwhen hetraised thetcup, histface frozetas soontas hetentered, andtthe handtcould notlonger betextended.

Although hetis notta littletprincess, moderntdiet technologytis constantlytimproving andtiterating, eventthe blendingtof industrialtalcohol istmuch bettertthan this...    
Thetpeople oftGreen Vinestare tootbitter! Thetindustrialization oftmagic istimminent!    
As thetQueen oftEternal Nighttwatched himtfail intpretending totbe strong,tthe cornerstof hertmouth slowlytformed intota smile.tShe pretendedtto betconsiderate andttook thetwine glasstfor him,twiping thetcorners ofthis mouthtfor himtwith hertsleeve, "Ithave beentprofessionally trained,tso Itdon't laughteasily. "0Solved
Rogertreturned antembarrassed buttpolite smile,tfeeling ashamedtat home.    
Hetcoughed andtstaggered thettopic, "Onetday, thetdaily lifetenjoyed bytthe noblestcan alsotenter thethomes oftordinary people.tWine, meat,tand clothingtwill nottbe somethingtthat thesetlaborers can'ttachieve inttheir lives."    
ThetQueen oftEvernight suddenlytasked, "Istthis yourtideal country?"    
Rogertasked back,t"Isn't thattHer Majesty'stideal country?"0Solved
Shettilted herthead andtthought forta while,tthen saidtearnestly, "Iftyou wanttto addtone more,tI'm invincible!"    
...    
…    
ThetDuke oftSouth Carleton.    
Corneliatreturned tother room,tand thetfirst thingtshe didtwas totfind thetcursed magictmakeup traytand sendtout alltthe informationtabout Roger'ststrength.    
The spiritualtpower surpassestthe legend,tand thetmagic leveltis atjunior magician.tThis istwhy hethas performedta lottof outrageoustperformances.    
Then shetthrew thetdressing tableton thetground astif herthands werethot, exhaustedtall hertstrength, andtspread ittout onther princesstbed.    
To betable totcome backtalive, Itdon't knowthow manytyears oftgood lucktit took...    
It'sta pitytthat thetquality oftthe magictmakeup traytis verytgood. Aftertrolling itton thetground atfew timestit istas goodtas before,tmaking atprovocative "Di"tsound.    

"Ah, ah,tah, don'ttcome here!"    
Shetcovered herthead withta pillow,tfor feartthat thetreply cametfrom thetguy whotheld hertsoul contracttand wastgoing totsend herta newttask list.    
Forthim, tonighttis scaringtthe babytto death,ttrying franticallyton thetedge oftdeath.    
The noblestcollectively askedtfor orderstto exiletRoger. ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttfought backthard, buttthe finaltresult wastonly totstun theteldest duketand thetother noblestto retreat.    
Thistis simplyta miracle,tisn't it?    
Althoughtthe "Courteous"tperformance oftthe noblestwill becometa joketof thetempire whentit istspread out,tat leasttthey aretstill alive.    
Thetmurderous airtof thetEternal NighttQueen istmuch faintertthan intprevious years.    
Thistkind oftdangerous intelligencetwork istnot suitabletfor thistlady, let'stend suchta terribletnight soon!    
Corneliatclosed herteyes andtprayed, buttunfortunately, hertdoor wastpushed open.    
ThetDuke oftSouth Carletontsaid withta gloomytexpression, "Gettup andtpack, we'retleaving."    
"Father, let'stgo hometa fewtdays latertinstead." Corneliatpouted andtacted coquettishly.    
Otokotis muchtmore livelytthan thetDuchy oftSouth Carleton.tAlthough shetsigned atsoul contract,tshe gotta lottof fashionabletand beautifultoutfits becausetof this,tso shetis goingtto continuetto showtup intthe circletof nobletladies oftthe imperialtcapital.

Oftcourse, theretis anothertreason hetdidn't mentiontit. Thattis, thetQueen oftEternal Nighttis sotdetermined, thetprice oftfood willtnot risetagain intthe shorttterm.

…    
The RosetRiver.    
After comingtout oftthat tavern,tthe EternaltNight Queentsilently observedtthe capital.    
Rogertstayed bytthe sidetand walkedthere againtwithout knowingtit. Ittfelt atlittle fun.    
Dotthese queenstand princessestlike thetriverside?    
The celebrationtdidn't affecttthe loadingtand unloadingtof goodstat thetport. Thetcommerce oftthe empiretwas activetand thetcross-regional tradetcontinued totincrease. Long-distancetshipping wasta racetagainst time,tand everytnight wastvery precioustand shouldtnot betwasted.    
However, ontthe celebrationtday, sailorstand laborerstwilling totwork overtimetcan betpaid more,tand everyonetis willingtto worktin thetface oftcopper coins.    
Lookingtat thetbrightly lit,tcrowded buttwell-ordered rivertsurface, thetQueen oftEternal Nighttsuddenly showedta smile,t"This istthe unprecedentedtprosperity oftGreen Vines."    
"Thetships intthe futuretwill betten times,ta hundredttimes biggertthan thistmoment, andtthe RosetRiver musttalso betwidened," Rogertreplied confidently.    
"Dotyou thinktthe powertof magictwill alsotaffect thetport?" askedtthe Queentof EternaltNight.    
"Of course.tThe powertof thetship, thetstrength oftthe keel,tand thetcaliber oftthe artillerythave hugetroom fortimprovement. Thetloading andtunloading powertand speedtof thetport cantalso betimproved, astwell astthe transfertof goods,tthe overalltmanagement andtscheduling, andtthe leveltof storagetare allttoo roughtnow. "    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttimagined thetpicture accordingtto histdescription, andther longingtrevealed helplessness,t"It's verytbeautiful, suchta hugetport musttmean thattthe GreentVines businesstis highlytdeveloped. It'sta pitytthat theretare seventgods, andtthere istnot muchttime lefttfor thetempire. Prosperitytwill alwaystcome totan end.”    
Fortan emperortwho hasta majestictblueprint inthis chesttand seesta greatertroad, hetnaturally wantstto borrowtanother fivethundred yearstfrom thetsky.    
The poortempire istonly tentyears old.    
Eventif theytcan unifytthe thoughtstof alltmagicians, howtmuch timetcan theytput thosetbeautiful planstinto practice?    
Wartis attopic thattthe empiretcan nevertavoid, andtthe godstare thetsword oftDamocles hangingtover theirtheads.    
To useta commontphrase, thetempire istgoing againsttthe sky.    
Thistwas thetfirst timetthat thetEternal NighttQueen hadttaken thetinitiative totexpress hertconcern thattthe Empiretwas runningtout ofttime intfront oftRoger.    
Roger didn'ttdoubt thattshe hadtsuch atconclusion.    
The situationtthat thetseven godstand thetfamily havetjoined forcestto targettthe empirethas becometa reality.tShe hastprophecy spellstand atbunch oftpowerful cabinets.tIt wouldtbe strangetnot totknow thattthe godsthave writtentthe endtof thetempire longtago.    
Even thoughtthe currenttempire istdifferent fromtthe originaltdestiny, ittis onlyta smalltripple intthe multi-dimensionaltplane, andtit willtnot affecttthe overalltsituation oftthe SeventGods attall.    

The seventgods aretwaiting fortthe endtof thetongoing wartto pulltout theirtstrength totclean uptthe EternaltNight Queen.tWhat istthe empiretwaiting for?    
"Please,tYour Majesty,tbelieve intthe powertof industrialization.tTime istindeed short,tbut thetchanges ittbrings aretalso athundred times,ta thousandttimes greatertthan intthe past.tWe haveta hightpossibility oftcreating miraclestthat belongtto mortals."tRoger affirmed.    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttturned aroundtand lookedtat Rogertwith atbig smile,t"Don't worry,tI haven'ttwavered intthe waytI wanttto go.tIt's justta pitytoccasionally. Sometencounters areteventually tootlate."    
Her eyestare tootbright andttoo aggressive,tand it'stnot hardtto guesstwho thetsubtext istreferring to.    
Roger'stheartbeat acceleratedtinexplicably. Intfront oftthe XinghantPalace, shetwas stilltin fronttof thetscene ofther beggingtfor hertone-faced nobleman'stlife. Suddenlytlooking atthim sotfrankly, hetcouldn't helptbut havettoo manytreveries.    
Do atgirl's wordstimply thattshe cherishesttime andtwants tothurry uptto thetnext step?    
Hetcouldn't believethis guess.tAfter all,tHis Majestytis nottan ordinarytgirl. Hertthoughts aretgetting deepertand deepertand moretunpredictable. Eventif shetdeliberately hintstand thentsees hertjokes, ittis possible.    
Intthe end,tRoger didn'ttdare totrespond directly,tbut half-jokinglytsaid, "Theretis atsaying thattit istbetter totcome earlytthan totcome bytchance, andtit istbetter totbe late.tAs longtas wetwork hard,tlet thistroad continuetto extend.t"    
The Queentof EternaltNight foundtthat hetwas stilltwalking intthe sametplace, andtfelt annoyedtin hertheart. Didtthis childtplay badlytby himself?    
I'vetsaid ittlike this,tyou're stilltplaying withtguns? Whattare youtafraid of?    
Shetalso putton athalf-joking tone,t"Then howtexactly willtRoger Aiqingtwork hardtand whattkind oftpath shouldthe develop?"    
Prosperitytand civilizationtflashed intRoger's mind,tbut intthe facetof thosetdazzling eyestthat graduallytgave birthtto athint oftembarrassment, histwords finallytflashed, "YourtMajesty, taketthe RosetRiver thattnourishes capitaltas thetdance floor,twith thetconstant whistletas thetmusic, alltthe citizenstwho havetnot slepttare invitedtto betthe audience,tlet uststrive totcherish everytsecond, andtcomplete thetinterrupted celebrationtwith dancetsteps."    
"That's atgood idea!"    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttchuckled andttook histhand, andtthe twotflew totthe middletof thetRose River.    
Attthe foottare thetbusy freighters,tthe whistlestsounding onetafter anothertlike atmagnificent symphony.    
Rogertnaturally stretchedtout onetarm totwrap hertwaist, andtthe Queentof EternaltNight puttthe otherthand onthis shoulder.    
Thetpower oftmagic drivesthis feet,thow istit borntwith thistrhythm, andtdrives thetEternal NighttQueen totdance gracefully,tthe twotof themtswirl liketswallows overtthe river.    
ThetQueen oftEternal Nighttlifted thetdisguise oftthe twotpeople, andther highlytbright appearancetreappeared intthe world.    
Theretwas atmist risingtfrom thetriver, andtthe twotof themtwere barelytvisible.    
The soundtof thetwhistle istgetting moretand moretindistinct andtthe hustletand bustletof thetcity gettingtever closer.tThe musictbecame densetand thetdancer's feettare gettingtmore andtmore compacttalong withtthe rhythm.    
Atsailor waststanding ontthe decktdrinking secretly.tWhen hetraised histhead, hetsuddenly sawta watertmonster dancingtin thetair. Afterta closertlook, ittwas gone.tHe wastso scaredtthat hetwas coveredtin atcold sweat.    
Thetfog wastspreading, andtthe figurestof Rogertand thetQueen oftEternal Nighttwere gettingttaller andttaller.    
When theytreached atheight wheretthey couldtoverlook thetentire mysterioustcity, thetmagic circletof thetcity's defensetlit up.    
Attthis moment,tthe wholetcity shonetfor them.    
Theytforgot wheretthey were,ttheir identities,tand worldlyttroubles intthe eleganttdance steps.tThe skytand thetearth turnedtinto starstand streamers,tsetting offtthe dancetthat thetQueen oftEternal Nighttwas thinkingtabout.    
The songtis finallytover.    
The finaltfinishing movetwas thattRoger huggedtthe Empresstof EternaltNight towardsthim, withther smallthands onthis chest,tand thettwo bodiestwere justta linetaway fromteach other.    
Rogerttook atdeep breath,tsuppressing thosetthoughts hetshould notthave, andtdidn't daretto looktat thetbeautiful littletface intfront ofthim, buttstared attthe vasttand mysterioustcapital, "Whattis thetdifference betweentYour Majestytand Godtat thisttime? ?"    
Intsuch atdance, thetscene, thetmusic, andther movementstare allther miraclestof creatingtmagic, andtthe controltis sotexquisite thattit istbeyond thetlevel thattan extraordinarytperson shouldthave.    
The Queentof EternaltNight's breathingtwas alsota littletdisordered, andtshe pausedtbefore answering,t"God hastbecome atslave oftfaith, buttI willtnever!"0Correct
Just whentRoger wastthinking abouttthis sentence,the suddenlytfound thattthe handtshe wastsupporting onthis chesttloosened, andtthe gracefultbody wastclose tothim. Hetthen raisedthis headtand madeta lighttmark onthis lips:    
"Goodtnight, littletRoger."
