I took over the hairpin, and I was a little bit skeptical, what did Mr. Wumin do as if he was explaining the funeral...

But looking at Mr. Wumin, he doesn't seem to have this awareness, but continues to pick and choose—even though in fact we have no money.

Before we knew it, we played until it was dark, so Mr. Wumin and I had no choice but to go back to the palace, but as soon as we got back to the palace, someone asked to see us, and when we asked, we were startled, it turned out to be the Grand Master.

And it sounds like the Grand Master has been here for a long time, and I'm afraid he already knows about my going out with Lord Wumin.

Sure enough, as soon as I went to the study, the grand master asked directly: "Your majesty, did you go outside the palace with the eldest... the empress?"

I pretended to be nonchalant and said: "It's just a matter of sympathy for the people..." After thinking about it, I simply used the trick of Lord Wumin: "Besides, we will have a war with Beichang Kingdom, and we will have no time to go out."

The Grand Master said with a half-smile, "I'm afraid this war will never start."

I wondered: "What do you mean?"

The grand master said: "The Northern Emperor died this morning."

What? ! Pak Tai is dead? !

I am also blinded.

I said, "Peking... what's wrong?"

The grand master said: "The Northern Emperor has been in poor health. According to the report from the spies, he woke up this morning and suddenly became full of energy, and he canonized the second prince Wu Xu as the crown prince, and then fell down from the dragon chair so straight."

I was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but said: "Teacher, you are so eloquent."

Grand Master: "..."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment, but now this...well, it's not the point." The corner of the Grand Master's mouth twitched slightly.

I hurriedly said: "I'm just in a good mood, so I can talk about it freely."

The grand master smiled knowingly: "Now that the Northern Emperor is dead, the second prince Wu Xu and the eldest prince Wu Zheng began to quarrel endlessly for the throne, and the third prince Wu Yong...by the way, how come the third prince Wu Yong hasn't moved at all?"

Because he is in our cold palace...

I was sweating profusely, and said with a forced smile: "I don't know... I guess I just hide my strength and bide my time."

The Grand Master nodded and didn't think about it any more: "But in fact, we can take the opportunity to attack Beichang Kingdom."

I thought to myself that this matter must be decided by Lord Wumin, so I said perfunctorily: "Well, I think so too... I am a little tired today, and I will come back to discuss it tomorrow morning. Compared with the ministers, I have ideas in my heart."

"Yes." Grand Master backed out respectfully, I slowly returned to the palace, Mr. Wumin had already taken a shower, sat on the bed and flipped through a book, seeing me coming back, he said: "What's the matter, Grand Master?"

I said, "Well, the Northern Emperor is dead."

Lord Wumin: "..."

After a while, Lord Wumin laughed loudly: "God help me too!"

I also find it inconceivable, because of my own body, the North Emperor planned for so long, but in the end he still died first, it seems that people are not as good as God...

Lord Wumin finished laughing, and said slowly: "This is the way to go, you can go and release Wu Yong."

I just remembered Wu Yong and said in surprise, "I know what Situ Youqing means!"

Lord Wumin glanced at me lightly.

I said: "He said that someone is going to die, which will prevent the two countries from fighting - that person is Beidi! And when we met Situ Youqing for the first time, do you still remember that I told her that my name is Tianwei! God Wei is Wu Yong, she counted this, she must be counting according to my name, that is to say, if the Northern Emperor is dead, the war will not start, and Tianwei, Wu Yong will cry and swell his eyes!"

I talked excitedly, but Mr. Wumin didn't show any ups and downs: "You just thought of it."

I:"… "

This man can't pretend...

I sat beside him and said hesitantly: "But yes, we let Wu Yong go, how can we tell him about his father's death?"

Lord Wumin said inexplicably: "I didn't kill his father, so what's the point? Tell him directly."

I said: "According to Wu Yong's personality, what if we cry a lot..."

Lord Wumin said: "I don't know, anyway, you can tell."

Me: "... I'm not good at this, you should be better."

Lord Wumin said: "Oh, forget it, I'm too lazy to bother, then I'll kill Wu Yong."

I:"… "

In the end, I went to the limbo alone in despair.

***

When I went to the cold palace, I felt that it was really cold here. In such a big palace, there were almost no one else except for the two guards at the door. With a hellish expression, I pretended not to see it and walked in.

Wu Yong was in one of the rooms. I pushed open the door and saw him lying on the bed limply, staring at the bed curtain with dazed eyes.

Seeing him like this, I really couldn't bear it—thinking about it, too, I was locked up in a dark secret room at first, and now I'm locked up in a cold palace with almost no one, even if I was locked up, it would probably be very painful.

I tried to speak: "Cough... Wu Yong?"

Wu Yong heard my voice, raised his head vigilantly, and then covered his chest with both hands: "Don't come here! I won't give in!"

I:"… "

Obviously Mr. Wumin treats him badly, but I treat him better, but he is still so guarded against me... Maybe it's because Mr. Wumin's looks are too murderous... Or, it seems that he likes to force others into prostitution

(Mr. Wumin:… )

I hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I... I won't do anything to you. I'm just saying, you can almost leave. "

Wu Yong turned to look at me in surprise: "Really? No conditions?"

I nodded: "Well, no, you can go. But be careful, don't let the grand master find you."

Wu Yong stared at me blankly, then stood up instantly, and began to pack his luggage vigorously. I looked at him, faltering and hawing, not knowing what to say about the news of his father's death.

It's almost done, I threw him a set of eunuch clothes and asked him to change into them, Wu Yong was very reluctant at first, but I said otherwise he would wear court maid clothes, so Wu Yong had no choice but to change into eunuch clothes coyly.

The two maids cleaned up the dishes according to the rules. I thought about it, ignored them, and went out with Wu Yong. The two guards had strange expressions from the beginning to the end, probably wondering why the emperor would raise the table. A prince from an enemy country is so sneaky in the cold palace... Moreover, the first time he came, the emperor and queen came together.

Wu Yong and I left the cold palace and walked on the road openly. Wu Yong was guilty of being a thief and kept shrinking. I felt upset when I saw it, and told him: "You are the eunuch by my side now. Who will come to check on you?" ?”

Wu Yong lowered the brim of his hat a little: "Well..."

Just when three or two maids came over, Wu Yong subconsciously hid to the side.

I:"… "

Sighing, I had no choice but to follow along.

So the two of us hid by the side wall, listening to the whispers of the two maids: "But it's really funny to say, the Northern Emperor died just like that..."

"Yeah, everyone was a little worried..."

My heart skipped a beat, and I wanted to say something bad, but sure enough, when I turned my head, I saw Wu Yong staring at me: "They... what did they say?"

"..." How can I repeat it again!

I swallowed and said, "It's nothing... You heard me wrong, I heard them say that the weather is fine today..."

Wu Yong: "..."

Wu Yong broke down and shouted: "You lied to me! How is it possible! I heard them...they said Beidi...how could this happen?!"

I comforted him: "Don't get excited, Bei Di is actually a doctor in our palace, already ninety-eight..."

Wu Yong was even more devastated: "Why is someone called this name again?! How is it possible!"

Suddenly someone was beside him and said coolly: "That's right, let's make up something decent..."

I was startled, and saw that it was Lord Wumin, who had arrived at some time, and was standing lazily leaning against the wall.

I was speechless: "Why are you here... don't make trouble!"

Lord Wumin was dissatisfied and said: "Why did I just add to the chaos... Wu Yong, don't get excited, don't worry, the Northern Emperor is really not dead."

Inexplicably, Wu Yong calmed down and stared blankly at Mr. Wumin: "Really?"

I... I'm so angry... I comforted him so much just now, but he didn't believe it, but he believed just a word from Mr. Wumin, didn't he

Wu Yong said: "Then... what they just said..."

Lord Wumin said: "Oh, the maids don't understand the rules, so it should be said that the Northern Emperor is dead."

I:"… "

Wu Yong: "..."

After a while, Wu Yong burst into tears.

I:"… "

I broke down: "Mr. Wumin!!! You still said that you didn't come to make trouble, what difference does it make! You, you, can't you send him out first?!"

Lord Wumin glanced at me and said to Wu Yong, "Don't cry."

Wu Yong cried louder.

Lord Wumin: "..."

Mr. Wumin said impatiently: "I'll kill you if you cry again, anyway, your father can't threaten me..."

Wu Yong cried heartbreakingly.

I:"… "

Lord Wumin: "..."

I went crazy: "If you don't know how to comfort people, just shut up!"

I said softly to Wu Yong: "Don't cry, if we send you back, you can go back quickly and see your father for the last time. If you cry again and provoke others, you may not be able to go back. At that time... you won't even be able to see your father for the last time."

Wu Yong was stunned for a moment, stopped crying little by little, and sobbed softly.

Mr. Wumin gave me a look of "You are amazing", I didn't bother to pay attention to him, and said to Wu Yong: "Calm down first, don't cry anymore... really."

Wu Yong nodded, and wiped the tears on his face carelessly with his hands.

I tried to change the subject: "You... why are you crying so sadly? You have a good relationship with your father?"

As soon as I finished speaking, I felt something was wrong. If he nodded and then recalled the happy time with his father, wouldn't he cry again? !

Fortunately, Wu Yong didn't do that, but shook his head: "Actually...not at all. I don't like father very much."

Mr. Wumin and I were speechless: "Then why are you crying so loudly?"

Wu Yong thought for a while and said, "But if my eldest brother and second brother ascend the throne, it will be even worse to me..."

Then he glanced at me cautiously: "Actually, Emperor Xi, you also know that my father asked me to find a way to seduce Princess Changyi, but if it is my elder brother and second elder brother, if they know that you have the habit of breaking sleeves, will let me seduce you..."

Lord Wumin and I collapsed at the same time: "When did I have the habit of breaking sleeves?!"

Wu Yong was shocked, and looked at Lord Wumin: "Empress, are you... What are you excited about?"

Wumin looked at him coldly.

I said to Wu Yong: "Don't worry, I don't have a habit of breaking my sleeves... My queen and I are so good..."

I tugged at Mr. Wumin's sleeve, wanting him to cooperate, Mr. Wumin glanced at me, and I winked at him. Lord Wumin thought for a while, then suddenly chuckled, stood on tiptoe, and quickly kissed me on the cheek.

I:"… "

Wu Yong: "..."

My face turned red instantly: "You, what are you doing!"

Mr. Wumin said with a half-smile, "Your Majesty, we have never done anything, and now you are still blushing, oh hehehe..."

Wu Yong was also a little embarrassed: "It turns out that I really misunderstood... Hehe."

Hehe your size.

I pulled Wu Yong up and said, "Let's go, let's go."

I took off the quick token and threw it to him: "Do you know the way yourself? Go out if you know the way. With this token, you can leave the palace...but you can't enter the palace. When you leave the palace, you can figure out your own way. Some of your subordinates should still be there, take them back to Beichang Kingdom."

Wu Yong took the token carefully and said, "Well... Thank you, Emperor Xi."

This is also the first time he spoke to me in such a polite manner. I thought it was a little funny, but also a little emotional, and said, "Okay, you can go now."

Lord Wumin folded his arms and watched, then suddenly said: "Remember not to come back in the future, or you will kill once you see him."

Wu Yong: "..."

I looked at Mr. Wumin inexplicably: "How did he provoke you?"

Lord Wumin said displeased: "Just talk about it! How many times can he die?"

Wu Yong: "..."

Wu Yong took the token and walked away briskly.

I was a little worried about him, so I looked at his back, made sure that he would not be caught, and then turned around, only to find that Lord Wumin had already disappeared.

... It's really fast to leave, just as weird as when it came.

However, how did he happen to be here at that time? Has he been following me all this time? ,

I really don't understand Mr. Wumin...

***

I went back to the Zhanggan Hall with my stomach full of questions and worries about Wu Yong. Lord Wumin was inside, eating the newly tributed lychees leisurely. I walked up to him and said, "Hey, I have something to ask you." ...you started following me?"

Lord Wumin didn't raise his eyes: "No."

"..." The denial was too quick...

I said embarrassingly: "Then you, first, why did you suddenly kiss me..."

Mr. Wumin said indifferently: "Aren't you very cautious, afraid that Wu Yong might misunderstand something? Since you care so much about his thoughts, I will help you out."

I wondered, "Do I really care about his feelings? Am I afraid that rumors of 'The Western Emperor is a Broken Sleeve' will spread everywhere? Originally, last time because of you, everyone was talking about Princess Changyi... Unrestrained, is it necessary to let Xi Huang into the water now? Husband and wife, without a good reputation, that is too tragic... "

Lord Wumin finally raised his head to look at me: "Oh? Is it because of this?"

"Otherwise?" I picked up a lychee, peeled off the skin, and said to Lord Wumin, "Open your mouth."

Lord Wumin opened his mouth with a smile.

I threw the skin into his mouth and bit into the pulp myself, well, it was delicious.

Lord Wumin: "..."

With a dark complexion, Wumin spat out the lychee shells, and said nonchalantly: "You should go and discuss with the Grand Master now, how to take advantage of the situation and attack Beichang Kingdom."

I said, "We still want to fight?"

Lord Wumin nodded: "Otherwise? Of course I have to take advantage of the fire, otherwise I will suffer too much."

"What kind of disadvantage is this... What do you want from Beichang Kingdom?"

Lord Wumin said lightly: "I don't know, I want at least eight cities for the time being."

I was surprised and said: "Beichang Kingdom is not as big as Xiyang Kingdom... eight cities, that's a lot, and almost everything on the border belongs to you."

Lord Wumin smiled: "Yes."

I think Mr. Wumin is too ambitious and has too much appetite, so it's not easy to talk to him, so I just said: "Will the Grand Master agree?"

Lord Wumin said: "I don't know, you should tell the grand master first, the grand master is quite strict in temperament, and he would probably say to lay down one or two first to try, that's fine, anyway, it's the same when the time comes to pursue the victory."

I think it's okay, so I nodded.

The matter was quickly negotiated, and it was officially confirmed after about a month. The soldiers of Xiyang Kingdom were well-trained. General He Qin sent troops.

Speaking of He Qin, I have always found it very amusing, for no other reason than because he is a general, but his name is "Heqin". This is the first time I mentioned this to Mr. Wumin, and I leaned forward happily When leaning back, Mr. Wumin just looked at me indifferently: "Don't say this in front of your face, just smile behind your back..." Then he laughed along with me.

... No, why do you recall it like this, Mr. Wumin and I both seem mentally handicapped...

In short, He Qin led a mighty army of 20,000 troops, just like attacking Dongyuan country. In fact, I feel a little sympathetic to Beichang country, but I can't stop it. The country will have no chance of being rescued...

The weak cannot resist the strong, they can only push the same weak to the strong to divert attention.

I feel a little sad, but I never dare to show it in front of Lord Wumin.
