The queen soon found out that Tang Ao's wedding partner was Jovin. According to the wedding guests, Jovin looked nothing like poisoned stated that he was abandoned in. From what everyone had said, it seemed like Jovin was in very good health. The queen suddenly felt like she was shouded in some sort of conspiracy. She wasn't able to figure it out. 'When did Jovin and Tang Ao even collude with each other?' 'How was his poison cured?' 'Furthermore, why did they get married on the capital planet?' These thoughts and conspiracies plagued the queen and she couldn't help but begin to panic. It wasn't good be in the dark when you were so high up the ladder.

Tang Ao claimed that Jovin was actually in a severely poisoned state when they met. However, he brought a near cure all type of medicine from the South that was able to cure an individual from all poisons. Tang Ao saved Jovin's life, so Jovin promised to devote his life to Tang Ao. Even though the southern border had been long renowned as the galaxy with all sorts of magical treasures, it was hard to believed Tang Ao when he said that they had such a heaven defying cure all to any poison in existence. However, even if no one wanted to believe it, the healthy Jovin was proof of it.

Jovin was the sole person so far who had both the 'Emperor's Yang Energy' gene as well as the fertility capability of 5. Tang Ao was a member of the royal family. It was very likely that their future child would be the child who inherited the gene and the royal lineage. Furthermore, Farley's infertility was confirmed. He was unable to provide the seeds to create life. Tang Ao's intentions were abundantly clear to all once he threw his wedding on the capital planet. Unfortunately for him, the current emperor had not passed yet. As long as he still had the breath of life in him, no one, not even went Farley was deemed unfit for the throne, would be able to claim the throne.

It was tradition that the newlyweds would visit important elders and in-laws after their marriage took place. This was the final step in their marriage customs. Therefore, Tang Ao brought Jovin to the Imperial Palace. Then he requested an audience with the King and told the Queen that they'd return to the South after their audience with the King.

However, the King was on nearly on his last breath. He was completely reliant on the life-sustaining medicines and medical machines to keep him alive. He very rarely woke up during throughout this entire time. Even if he did happen to wake up and stay awake for a period of time, he was in a constant state of confusion. The Queen might not grant Tang Ao and his people an audience with the King.

"It's good enough for you to think of His Majesty so deeply in your heart. However, His Majesty is very weak right now. He doesn't that much energy to spare with such matters, so you don't need to visit him." The Queen rejected. She was furious when she saw with her own eyes just how healthy Jovin was. She was angry because Tang Ao had this medicine that was capable of curing all sorts of poisons all this time, but didn't offer it earlier. What made her even angrier was that her own son was barren now, but Jovin had gotten healthier and healthier. He even immediately married Tang Ao the moment he recovered his health.

"If His Royal Majesty is so ill that he can't even see people, then who handles the daily affairs and major decisions?" Tang Ao asked in reply.

It didn't matter if the King was seriously ill as long as he was able to nod and agree with the Queen's decision making, then it was still the emperor's decision. However, if the King was so ill that he was completely muddle headed and the Queen was the one who made the decisions on her own, then that was a completely different situation. The significance between these two situations was huge.

The Queen replied steadily, "Of course His Majesty is the one who decides and deals with the important governmental affairs."

"Really? Then that means that if His Royal Majesty is able to stay conscious enough for governmental affairs, then there shouldn't be a problem with seeing people who wish to pay their respects. Please rest assured, Your Royal Majesty. We just want to have an audience with His Royal Majesty. It shouldn't affect his rest too much. We only want to see how His Royal Majesty's well being is, so we can return to the South with peace of mind."
