I Married the Beautiful Female Protagonist In Order To Survive - Chapter 916
32. What is Professionalism?
Located on the most fertile land on the continent; with the most suitable climate; and the most abundant resources, the Great Ying Empire is also the most powerful empire among the nations. In four words: a land of outstanding people and spirits.
After all, the Great Ying Empire has even prospered to the point where the Queen herself has become an “idol,” receiving cheers from the people. This very “understanding” Queen Louise IV has garnered absolute public support within the Great Ying Empire to maintain her rule. Any occasional rumors against her are immediately drowned out by a wave of denunciations and then quietly disappear.
However, don’t be fooled by the prosperous and peaceful appearance of the Great Ying Empire. To keep such a vast empire running, there must be powerful strength as a tool. The usually smiling “her” can bring about dangers that are completely opposite to that “smile” when she decides to take action.
The Great Ying Empire is like this, and so is Queen Louise IV, who is like the embodiment of the Great Ying Empire.
Today is just another ordinary night in the Great Ying Empire.
At this moment, Queen Louise IV of the Great Ying Empire is alone in her bedchamber. At a time when good children should be fast asleep, for the Queen, it is the “beginning of work.” Under the cold moonlight shining through the window, the Queen, dressed in a light, floating short skirt, is smiling as she looks out the window.
This young girl occasionally stands on tiptoe, making these innocent and lively movements. However, for some reason, the parasol she holds behind her back occasionally glints with a cold light.
After softly humming a tune, Queen Louise IV turns around, smiling as she faces the figure already kneeling on one knee before her.
Her “most trusted~” close aide, Moriarty, has finally arrived.
“Your Majesty, it has been confirmed that Zerora will likely leave the empire soon.”
“Heh… Haha~”
The next moment, Queen Louise IV somewhat covers her already slightly smiling face with her hand and then sighs regretfully, “Ah… Despite being so high in the line of succession and holding such a noble position, why does Uncle Zerora want to leave?”
Following that was the sound of Moriarty clicking his tongue, which was particularly clear in such a quiet setting.
“Why does he want to leave? Your Majesty, don’t you know best…”
“Hehe, there’s nothing we can do about it, Sir Moriarty~”
The Queen wasn’t annoyed by her subordinate’s complaint but instead blinked with a smile, “Who told Uncle Zerora that he never had any proper ‘connection’ with me? Although his wife is considered my ‘aunt,’ Sir Moriarty, you understand, right? It’s just superficial, just ‘considered’ in this fictional ‘order’ of the Great Ying Empire…”
As she spoke, the Queen turned around and looked out the window.
“When someone like him has no ‘weaknesses,’ it becomes a bit difficult for me.”
“Are you taking this opportunity to mock Zerora’s family for not having children?”
“It’s a pity, Moriarty.”
The smile on her face disappeared for a moment, but… it was really just a fleeting moment, “I pity that I have to do this to the meritorious officials of the Great Ying Empire now, although~ it’s just a slight pity~”
The cheerful smile returned to the Queen’s face as usual.
“In comparison, although Louis XXIII is much inferior, she has an absolute ‘need’ for me. After all, the genius girl of the Great Ying Empire can’t last a day without our ‘stuff’ before revealing her true colors~ This is the most suitable ‘power’ for our Great Ying Empire, Moriarty.”
“Don’t give Louis XXIII too much potion~ Otherwise, a woman like her, with too many benefits, will float to the sky. If she says something strange, it will be your inspection team’s trouble to handle.”
“One day with, one day without, one day arrogant, one day trembling with fear. Since such a tool fears power but does not appreciate virtue, we only give her ‘power.’”
Moriarty stood up and leaned against the wall.
His attitude towards the Queen became a bit more “casual”: “You don’t need to worry about such a level of problem. Since I ‘created’ her according to your wishes, I can control her well enough. Compared to Louis XXIII, you should first think about how to deal with Zerora, who plans to leave the Great Ying Empire.”
“I’ve already thought about it~”
The Queen clapped her hands, her smile unchanged, “Next, I will find some helpers for your inspection team. When that uncle leaves, then…”
“Don’t let him leave~”
“…Do we still have to do it?”
After a deep sigh, Moriarty received the Queen’s still innocent response. Moriarty had long given up thinking about this.
“Mm~ After all, once Uncle Zerora’s family leaves, they’ll most likely go to find his acquaintances~”
Pausing for a moment, the Queen said, “In the Kingdom of Prussia, the elf’s acquaintances~ Sigh… As for me, I’m not very good at thinking about the future, so… Uncle is already struck out~”
“I understand.”
After a moment of silence, Moriarty responded.
Not only did she understand what the Queen wanted to do, but she also understood: this was indeed not a whim of the Queen, but… a long-planned scheme.
Perhaps she never intended to give herself any other options from the beginning, and look… even the next step has already been thought out.

“Then, we’ll use Louis XXIII’s upcoming birthday to cover this matter~ During the time of celebrating the genius of the British Empire, no one will care about a noble lord who has left the British Empire~”
“Speaking of which, I heard that recently the Russian Empire will also have a delegation coming, right? Among them, there seem to be some young Russians who admire the identity of XXIII~ Well~ after all, who wouldn’t like a strong and young beautiful girl?”
“So, it’s time for dear XXIII to exert some of the pitiful heat she can bring for our British Empire~”
One link after another, one thing suppressing another, if possible, Moriarty really wanted to sarcastically comment on the monarch in front of her: What do you mean by ‘not good at thinking about the future’?
As for the content of the Queen’s words, Moriarty didn’t care, not even the Queen’s handling of Zerora, this “friend” with whom she had some interaction, Moriarty didn’t comment much.
The British Empire is like this, some people like the prosperity, naturally, some people like the “dirty work”, all arranged by this “idol of the empire” in front of her, it’s just a matter of “knowing or not knowing that you are being arranged”.
Everyone has a bright future, it just depends on whether one likes to “live under prosperity” or “witness the truth with their own eyes”.
And Moriarty considered herself the latter, knowing she was a pawn, at least it felt more comfortable than not knowing she was a pawn from the beginning.
“Hehe~ Don’t worry Moriarty, Uncle Zerora’s matter will soon be overshadowed by our thoughts on the Russian Empire.”
In her sight, the Queen remained innocent and carefree.
“Conflict is the best means to bury anything~”
