Li Junze hesitated for a dozen seconds before saying to Yun Qingyu, "Allowing Miss Situ to remain in the Demon Palace is merely a matter of a single word. As long as you are at ease, Madam, it can be done. However... in what capacity do you wish for Miss Situ to stay here?"
Yun Qingyu remained silent. She, too, was unsure what status would be appropriate for Situ Xue; she only wished to do her utmost to fulfill her daughter’s final wish.
Seeing her silence, Li Junze glanced at Chu Qinghuang, thought for a moment, and said, "Forgive me, but I cannot offer Miss Situ the position of Demon Queen. If you find it acceptable, Madam, I can grant her the title of Imperial Noble Consort—a rank just below the Queen. Or, I could have a temple built for her, so that she may receive the incense and offerings of the demon subjects."
