I was a little scared and reached out and put my hand under her nose to explore... she was out of breath.
I looked at Mr. Wumin stiffly: "What should I do, I'm out of breath..."
Lord Wumin was not nervous, he felt her pulse, and said: "Don't worry, she is not dead. She must have been poked in an acupuncture point and fell into a deep coma."
I breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good."
Mr. Wumin frowned: "Well, what is good, everyone knows that she is here now, I must be exposed to everyone in advance, and she is like this, although she is not dead, she is not intact after all, my uncle loves his daughter like Fate, really..."
Hearing what he said, I couldn't help but said: "You are really patient with her."
Lord Wumin said: "She likes me, and this is also a big reason to restrain my uncle."
I said, "Then you want to marry her as the queen?"
Mr. Wumin looked at me with a mocking look in his eyes: "Do you think that after I ascend the throne, my uncle might stay by my side safely, like a firecracker that is about to explode at any time?"
"… Won't."
"Then what do you think, after I get rid of him, he will allow his daughter to stay by my side safely, like a firecracker that will explode at any time?"
"… Won't."
"That's it." He said frankly, "I'm pretending to be affectionate now, just to let my uncle think that I will look at Princess Sheng'an's face and let them all go in the future."
His current ruthless appearance vaguely reminded me of the man who coldly said "decision" behind the high platform that day.
During these short hours of getting along with each other, there was so much noise and fuss, I almost forgot what kind of person Wumin-Jun is.
Suddenly remembered, really frightened.
I cautiously asked: "Why are there firecrackers around you..."
"..." Lord Wumin gave me a complicated look, "There is a little problem with your focus..."
I explained: "No, I'm just thinking, in your heart, I'm probably also a firecracker."
Mr. Wumin pursed his lips and smiled: "Don't worry, even if it is, it still has to be connected to me—our current state is a double bang..."
"..."
After Mr. Wumin carefully took off the silver needle on Princess Sheng'an's forehead, he asked me to call someone in, saying that Princess Sheng'an accidentally knocked her head down and passed out, so I took her back.
It just so happened that Princess Pingyang’s clothes arrived. I saw that the gold-bottomed ruffles were also glittering with gold. They were indeed gorgeous and not tacky. Each piece is embroidered very neatly, without any skew, and even the thread is invisible, which shows the care and luxury of the workmanship.
Looking at the jewelry, they are all things like Buyao gold hairpin tassels. Wearing them all can cover half of your face, especially a big tassel. I strongly suggest that Mr. Wumin wear it in the middle: "You can't see your face." , regardless of beauty or ugliness.”
Lord Wumin didn't say anything, just took it silently, and then put it behind his head.
"..."
Mr. Wumin and I don't know much about dressing up, so we finally asked the maid to help her do it. The maid is probably used to the wind and waves today. Although her face is as white as paper or as green as grass, her hands and feet don't shake anymore, so it's a good idea to dress up. good.
After a lot of busy work, the maids stepped back, and I said a lot to Mr. Wumin: "Sure enough, you are three-quarters of your appearance and seven-percents of your attire, Your Royal Highness, you are so beautiful."
Lord Wumin sneered: "Yun Jiao, you are so shameless to boast about yourself like this."
I smiled at him: "It's not my face anyway."
"..."
Finally the preparations are finished, the two of us talked about what to say and what to do after meeting the emperor for a while—I will tell the emperor of Xiyang Kingdom in a while, Lord Wumin, that is, I am Chang Yi of Dongyuan Kingdom Princess, I came here to ask for peace. Lord Wumin, that is, I received the news that Beichang Kingdom took advantage of Xiyang Kingdom to attack Dongyuan Kingdom. When the domestic troops were relatively empty, they planned to take advantage of the situation and attack Xiyang Kingdom. And now that Xiyang country has been unable to attack Dongyuan country for a long time, and the soldiers are tired of war - after all, a war of aggression is not as exciting as resistance, especially if it drags on for too long. Now that Beichang Kingdom has made some moves, Lord Wumin decided to simply make peace with Dongyuan Kingdom and fight against Beichang Kingdom first.
There must always be a link to make peace, and this link is Princess Changyi who came here.
Of course, Xiyang Kingdom spent so much military and financial resources to attack Dongyuan Kingdom, it is impossible to withdraw troops so easily, even if the emperor agreed, the soldiers would be extremely dissatisfied. Therefore, for the land that Xiyang Kingdom has conquered, half of the tax revenue must be distributed to Xiyang Kingdom every year, and this time, gold and silver treasures, pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, silk and satin must also be presented.
In the future, the two countries will be regarded as allies, helping each other and never aggressing each other.
This is what I agreed to, after all, it is much better than letting Dongyuan country be destroyed. If this is not enough, I am afraid that the emperor will never agree, and King Xiuyi can talk too much. At that time, if the position of Prince Wumin is not guaranteed, I can die with him...
I asked Mr. Wumin, and he said that the Beichang Kingdom is indeed eyeing the Xiyang Kingdom, but it should not be so bold to attack directly. After all, the Beichang Kingdom and the Nanwen Kingdom themselves are restraining each other, and there is no time to spare. .
But now I can't control so much, I have to come up with the excuse of the past-not to mention that since Beichang is so unfriendly, it will be destroyed anyway in the future.
Regarding Mr. Wumin's arrogant attitude, I have nothing to say.
After confirming that it was correct, we left the Zhanggan Hall together. Before leaving, I told him very seriously that he was not allowed to call me Yunjiao.
Ever since I was a child, others have called me Princess or Changyi. The name Yunjiao, except when I was very young, my own mother who has blurred my memory called me a few times, and when I was studying the Book of Songs, the Taifu said "Yue "Out of Jiaoxi", besides mentioning my name, I almost forgot that my name was Yunjiao. I am not surprised that Mr. Wumin will know my name, but it makes me a little strange that he calls me by my name frequently.
After listening to what I said, Lord Wumin smiled: "Then...Jiao'er?"
"... You should call me Yun Jiao."

I am the prince, I can take the sedan chair to the emperor's resting place, but Lord Wumin is not, he can only walk beside the sedan chair.
Because he was dressed too gorgeously, there was almost no black hair on his head, only golden ornaments, which seemed scary to me, not to mention that he was the one who wore it.
And I think he is very adaptable, I don't even feel comfortable wearing his clothes, but he is not used to wearing women's clothes, wearing women's headgear, and makeup. I can only say that he can bend and stretch, or ... He used to secretly dress up as a woman in places where no one was around...
I seldom sit in a sedan chair in Dongyuan country, firstly I have to practice all the time, I don't like to sit in a sedan chair, and secondly, no one cares whether I sit in a sedan chair or not. Now I am sitting on the sedan chair, because the palace is not allowed to go too fast, so it is slower than walking. I am sitting on this swaying sedan chair, looking at the golden back of Lord Wumin's head, I just feel extremely bored, and my thoughts are flying...
Finally arrived at the Qingshen Hall where the emperor rested, I was about to breathe a sigh of relief when I heard Lord Wumin whisper: "My uncle is here too."
I sat up straight nervously, and looked at a middle-aged man with a big belly who came down from the sedan chair. Although he was a little fat, his brows were somewhat similar to Mr. Wumin, and he should have been considered a pretty handsome man when he was young. I also got off the sedan chair, and when he saw me, he saluted slightly: "Prince."
"King Xiuyi." I saluted back, "You are also here to visit King Father."
"Yes." He nodded, but his eyes were on Lord Wumin's side, probably because he saw a woman beside me and thought it was strange.
I just pretended I didn't see it and said, "Then let's go in together."
"Yeah." King Xiuyi narrowed his eyes slightly, with a fierce look on his face. I felt frightened for no reason, but suddenly I heard a room crying from inside, and then a sharp voice: "The emperor is dead!"
ha? ! Before we even entered, the emperor of Xiyang Kingdom died? !
I was stunned and turned my head to look at Lord Wumin, but he pushed me and staggered a few steps inside, knowing that he probably asked me to kneel down, so I hurried in, and along the way I heard someone calling "Prince", But he didn't care anymore, he saw the dragon bed and knelt down.
In addition to those servants, there were two people kneeling next to me, a white-haired man in official uniform, and a man who seemed to be my father-in-law, but immediately, King Xiuyi also knelt down beside me with a plop.
After I knelt down, I was at a loss again, turned my head slightly, and saw that Mr. Wumin had also come in, he was kneeling behind me, his eyes were full of tears, and the makeup on his face was stained by crying, although it was my face, but Looking at it this way, it still feels a little scary...
But when I think about it, yes, although Lord Wumin has always been so ruthless and neurotic, but in the end this emperor, the emperor who just died, is his father... How could he not be sad
I just thought about it, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in my thigh. The pain caused my tears to flow out immediately, and then wept bitterly.
... How cheap, to stab me with a needle...
I realized that it was a good deed done by Mr. Wumin, he probably saw that I forgot to cry, so he just poked me to remind me, and his hand was not light at all, he hit my acupoint directly, I burst into tears of pain, Just burst into tears.
The King Xiuyi who was lying on the bed was sobbing softly. Seeing me crying suddenly, he looked at me inexplicably, gritted his teeth, and burst into tears: "Brother Huang!"
…
As expected of uncles and nephews in the same line, they are all so hypocritical...
I was crying loudly and shouting "Royal Father", but I vaguely thought in my heart that I just thought that Mr. Wumin couldn't help crying because he was too sad, but how could a person who was really sad to notice Did I cry or even poke me with a needle? It's like people who are really sad and crying will not pay attention to the things around them and show inexplicable expressions when they are crying halfway through...
Lord Wumin, aren't you sad
When my father died, I wasn't too sad, but... After all, I am different from Mr. Wumin.
He is the only prince, and the Emperor Xiyang should treat him very well, so he has such a eccentric temperament, but why does he have no affection for his father at all
Confused, I still burst into tears, the white-haired old man and father-in-law at the side all came to comfort me, I dealt with it indiscriminately, and heard Lord Wumin whisper to me: "Let them all go out and say they want you Be quiet with King Xiuyi."
I hurriedly said: "You all go out first, let my uncle and I accompany my father..."
The white-haired old man said: "Yes..." After a pause, he said again: "However, before we feel sad, the prince still needs to listen to the last emperor's last decree—Eunuch Cao, read it."
That Eunuch Cao nodded, wiped away his tears, and began to mutter, I have no education, I can’t even understand what I heard, and I only heard something vaguely: “All the emperors of the previous generation had the virtues of Yao and Shun, but I have nothing to do with it.” For this... Mr. Wumin has good conduct, both civil and military, and now he is in the hands of the Western Yang Kingdom. He is willing to caress the people of the world with the virtue of filial piety, and to calm the troubled times in all directions with a brave posture... "
All in all, the throne is definitely for Mr. Wumin. I sneaked a glance at Mr. Wumin, and saw that his expression was relaxed a lot, but looking at King Xiuyi, his expression was not very good.
I accepted the order in tears, and the two of them took the rest of the servants out first, and by the way, they had to inform the other people about the death of the emperor.
As a result, only me, Lord Wumin, and King Xiuyi were left in the huge dormitory.
King Xiuyi cried and cried, but gradually turned to my side: "Mr. Wumin... Hey, I will call you Mr. Wumin again now, and I will call you the emperor in the future."
I didn't answer, anyway, he probably didn't want to admit this fact.
He continued: "It's just... who is this woman next to you? Just now the Grand Master and Eunuch Cao didn't see her because they were too sad, but I saw... who is she, eh?"
This king of Xiuyi is indeed very bold, as soon as Lord Wumin received the decree to become emperor, he dared to question him, which shows his intentions. I opened my mouth and was about to answer, but Lord Wumin at the side suddenly took out something from his sleeve, and before King Xiuyi and I could react, he stabbed the thing fiercely into King Xiuyi's chest among.
I just felt a gust of wind pass by my eyes, and when I looked closely, I saw that King Xiuyi had fallen, and the blue official uniform was gradually soaked in red liquid, revealing a strange color... I tremblingly stretched out my hand and touched King Xiuyi The neck is actually... dead.
