Because of Xiaohua's arrival, the inn was noisy for a long time. The ghost girl was very interested in the little flower and tried to coax it. However, Xiaohua was too timid. After seeing Su Yue, she always stayed by Su Yue's side, never going anywhere and ignoring anyone who coaxed her.
At night, Su Yue drove the ghost girl away again, saying that she was really not used to sleeping with others, and the ghost girl left with hatred. In fact, she wanted to send the little flower into space, but it was too dangerous to put it outside.
When everything was over, Su Yue found someone outside and initially thought it was the second senior brother who couldn't sleep and was wandering around. But an hour passed and the person was still there.
"Lengfeng, is that you?" Su Yue asked hesitantly.
"master."
"come in."
When the cold wind entered the room, Su Yue was fully dressed and did not want to rest.
"Why are you always outside my house and don't go to rest?"
Leng Feng pursed his lips and held it in for a long time, "I'm protecting the master outside."
This time, because Su Yue made a temporary arrangement and asked him to take people to help Su Yu to find out the news, Su Yue was left alone in the inn. As a result...
Su Yue also understood his concerns, "It was an accident last time, and you can't change the result even if you are here. Besides, I asked you to take people out, so I can't blame you. Besides, besides you, King Jingnan also stayed People are here, but accidents still happen, right? Those people have premeditated it, and we can't take precautions. I will pay more attention to it in the future, and you don't need to be like this. You won't be able to bear it for a long time. "
"But..." Lengfeng didn't know what to say, "Brothers are all blaming themselves."
"Why are you blaming yourself? You are my guards and want to protect my safety, but you are not gods. You cannot be by my side all the time. Even if you were the two people that day, you are no match. Go. Otherwise, it will only cause more casualties for no reason." Su Yue always hit the nail on the head when she spoke.
"Even so, we should advance and retreat together with the master." Leng Feng said stubbornly.
"I didn't say that we can't advance and retreat together. I just said that last time, it was an accident and I don't blame you." Su Yue looked at him seriously, "So, don't blame yourself."
Seeing that Leng Feng still didn't respond, Su Yue sighed. It was quite tiring to talk to such a stubborn person, "Where are the others? Or should they take turns to stay outside?"
"Yes, but I adjusted it a little bit." There can't be any more accidents. Even if there is something, at least there will be someone to block the knife.
"Would it be too strenuous?" Su Yue slightly frowned her beautiful eyebrows. She did not recommend working tiredly.
"Will not."
Su Yue nodded, "Okay, I don't care about this. You make your own arrangements. I still say the same thing. You can arrange the things in your life. When you have spent all the money, tell me." The brothers earned hard-earned money, and their salaries are huge. Cannot be in arrears.
"yes."
"Okay, you go out, I want to rest too."
"My subordinates are resigning." Leng Feng had just retreated to the door when he suddenly noticed a strange aura and his eyes sternly asked, "Who is it?"
A black figure instantly appeared outside the door, kneeling on one knee, "Xiao Wu, please see the princess."
"A person from King Jingnan?"
"yes."
"come in."
Xiao Wu lowered his head and entered the house. Leng Feng stood guard at the door and did not leave, nor did he close the door.
Su Yue carefully observed the person kneeling in the room, not remembering whether she had seen him before, "Did Xiao Han ask you to come?"
Xiao Wu was shocked. Does this princess call her master by his first name? But the respect on his face did not diminish at all. Xiao Yi reminded him repeatedly that he should treat the princess just like the prince, "Yes. The master has ordered that once there is the latest news in the Northern Territory, he should be informed as soon as possible. The princess is here to deliver the news.”
Su Yue nodded and winked at Lengfeng, who immediately closed the door and stood guard at the door for his master.
"Say it."
Xiao Wu still lowered his head, "My subordinates heard that there has always been a special being in the Beiyu Palace. His face is hidden by a mask all year round, but his status in the palace is very high. Both the Queen Mother and the Emperor are very interested in him. He was treated with great courtesy, and the emperor even arranged a sleeping quarters for him in the palace."
"A foreign man lives in the palace, and the courtiers don't have any objections?"
"Of course, the attitude of the courtiers towards this person is also very subtle. From the strong opposition at the beginning to the acquiescence later, the whole situation makes people feel very strange."
Xiao Wu paused for a moment, realizing that Su Yue had nothing to ask, and continued, "Our people have never heard any direct evidence, but there is still news coming out that..."
"say what?"
"Said this person has a close relationship with the Queen Mother."
"Are you sure?"
"It's basically certain that this is an open secret in the Beiyu Palace. They don't particularly avoid it, and they have been bumped into by palace people many times."
"So blatant?"
"Indeed, my subordinates speculate that this is also the key to the change in the direction of the courtiers. After all, the emperor also acquiesced to this matter."
"Then, have you found anything about this attack on Daqing?"
"Yes, this entry into the palace was directly decided by the Emperor of the Northern Territory. Hundreds of courtiers' suggestions were rejected. It seems that the Emperor of the Northern Territory has had this plan for a long time, and even General Tali who led the troops seems to have had this plan. I have known about it for a long time, and this person has a very close relationship with this mysterious person, more like a superior-subordinate relationship."
"Then, is it possible to confirm that this mysterious man is the former Holy Master of Northern Xinjiang?"
"Based on our description, we can be 90% sure that they are the same person."
Su Yue's face was a little ugly, she didn't know what she was thinking, and Xiao Wu, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't dare to speak.
"Is there anything else? Tell me all the information you get, without using any language."
"Yes." Xiao Wu thought carefully, "The Queen Mother of the Northern Territory has been very excited in the palace recently. She listens to plays and dances all day long. The emperor occasionally visits, and the mother and son have a very harmonious relationship. The Emperor of the Northern Territory has never had a legitimate son, and the Queen Mother has recently been The pressure is very tight, and the queen is under a lot of pressure. But the queen is the niece of the queen mother, so her position is still very stable."
"How many children does the Northern Territory Emperor have?"
"Two princes and three princesses."
Su Yue frowned in confusion, "There are not too many heirs."
"I guess... she wants to consolidate her mother's family's status. After all, the queen has been doing nothing, which is not a good thing for the queen mother's family."
Su Yue was a little impatient. She didn't like this kind of calculations, especially the fights between women in the palace. "It's been many years since the Northern Emperor and the Queen got married. They haven't pushed for it for so many years. Why did they push for it recently?" Already?"
"It is said that we have been married for ten years. The Queen Mother also said that now is a critical moment. If the Queen can have a legitimate son now, no one will be able to challenge her status in the future."
"Critical moment..." refers to their decision to attack Daqing? Of course this is only the first step, their target should be the entire continent. But...can the remnants of the previous dynasty agree to the Northern Territory Emperor proclaiming himself emperor? They should be in a cooperative relationship, right?
Suddenly, Su Yue's eyes lit up. She and Xiao Han had doubted it before, what if they were more than just a cooperative relationship? If the emperor of the Northern Territory is originally from the blood of the previous dynasty, then everything makes sense...
