Fengqi Palace.

When Gu Yanyue knew that someone wanted to see her by name, she was still a little confused, fearing that Yu Wenran would misunderstand something.

I immediately thought about explaining to him, but unexpectedly Yuwen Ran smiled and said, "Ayue, I believe you, no explanation is needed."

But with Yu Wenran's current power, even if he was resentful, he could only take Gu Yanyue with him to meet him.

The day for the meeting with the Western Regions soon arrived. Gu Yanyue followed Yuwen Ran all the way. The carriage slowly came, and the person who came was the envoy from the Western Regions.

Tuoba Chen.

He was dressed in red, looking enchanting and charming.

"Your Majesty!" Tuoba Chen saluted, but his eyes were looking at Gu Yanyue.

Gu Yanyue carefully identified Tuoba Chen and found that she had no memory of this person.

"Your Excellency, the envoy has traveled thousands of miles. Please follow me into the palace. I have prepared a dinner to welcome you."

At the banquet, Tuoba Chen did not deliberately make things difficult for Gu Yanyue, and there was nothing unusual in his conversation with Yuwen Ran. Halfway through, Tuoba Chen suggested eating the dishes cooked by Gu Yanyue.

Gu Yanyue couldn't refuse, so she had to get up and cook.

"The Queen's cooking skills are excellent. I really want to stay here and keep eating." Tuoba Chen looked at Gu Yanyue with a smile.

This made Gu Yanyue very uncomfortable.

Tuoba Chen's eyes were like those of a prey being looked at, with a sense of pride that he was determined to win, which made Gu Yanyue vaguely feel that this person was coming for her.

…

At night, Yuwen Ran went to Gu Yanrou. I heard that it was the Queen Mother's order. Gu Yanyue had long been accustomed to Yuwen Ran doing things against his will for these worldly reasons, so she didn't ask much.

At night, when all the palace maids and eunuchs were asleep, a red figure landed in Gu Yanyue's yard, but Gu Yanyue remained calm.

She looked at the uninvited guest and asked, "The Western Regions envoy is barging into my bedroom like this?"

"Your Majesty, why are you not sleeping so late? Aren't you waiting for me?" Tuoba Chen smiled.

Gu Yanyue smiled and said nothing. She picked up the wine glass on the table and asked, "Would you like a drink?"

Gu Yanyue was a little tipsy at the moment, her face flushed, her eyes full of charm, she looked at Tuoba Chen and spoke slowly.

"good."

Gu Yanyue poured a glass of wine for Tuoba Chen, and Tuoba Chen drank it. The two chatted casually, and after a few glasses of wine, Tuoba Chen got drunk.

"Just based on your drinking capacity?" Looking at the dazed Tuoba Chen, Gu Yanyue felt a little disgusted.

She was just trying it out, but Tuoba Chen looked at her strangely, so she boldly guessed that Tuoba Chen had come back to see her and prepared some wine. Sure enough, this guy came, but things went a little more smoothly because Tuoba Chen's alcohol tolerance was too poor.

"Who are you?" Gu Yanyue wanted to make this person tell the truth after drinking.

She vaguely felt that Tuoba Chen's identity was not that simple.

"I am a prince from the Western Regions." Tuoba Chen was confused after drinking and immediately came out with a set of tricks.

Gu Yanyue was a little surprised that this eccentric fool was actually a prince from the Western Regions!

It seems that Tuoba Chen has run away, but the people in the Western Regions probably don’t know about it yet. Thinking of this, Gu Yanyue felt it necessary to tell Yuwen Ran, so she dragged Tuoba Chen under the eaves and took a quilt from the house to cover him.

This series of actions startled Liu Mei. She looked at Tuoba Chen lying on the ground, extremely surprised. After a long while, she asked, "My Lady, why...why is there a man in your room?"

"Keep your voice down!" Gu Yanyue said, and Liu Mei also quieted down. "Liu Mei, watch him, I'll go find His Majesty!"

Fortunately, Yuwen Ran was still awake. After meeting Gu Yanrou, he returned to his bedroom and was reviewing memorials.

He saw Gu Yanyue coming and put down his work, "Ayue."

"Something big has happened. The one who came is not an envoy from the Western Regions, but a prince, the prince of the Western Regions!" Gu Yanyue was panting. Yuwen Ran was a little confused for a moment. Gu Yanyue took a deep breath and told Yuwen Ran everything he knew.

Yu Wenran frowned.

Gu Yanyue also knew that this matter was extraordinary. If something happened to Tuoba Chen here, the entire Dongsheng would suffer.

I thought Yuwen Ran would say something, but he just looked at Gu Yanyue and said, "Ayue, why are you drinking with other men so late at night?"

Gu Yanyue: “…”

She was speechless for a moment.

…

The next day, after Tuoba Chen woke up, he left immediately, feeling very embarrassed that he had gotten drunk last night.

Yuwen Ran invited Tuoba Chen to play chess in the Imperial Garden today. Tuoba Chen couldn't refuse and had to come.

Tuoba Chen was a bit confused today after drinking a lot last night. He lost to Yuwen Ran several times. A bit irritated, Tuoba Chen said casually: "I don't want to play anymore!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Your Excellency the Envoy?" Yu Wenran laughed.

Tuoba Chen suddenly realized something and looked at Yuwen Ran. "Your Majesty played chess so well today that even I got caught up in it." He stretched nonchalantly. "Since Your Majesty knows everything, I won't hide it. I am indeed not an envoy."

"So you are...?"

"Doesn't Your Majesty know this?"

Yuwen Ran put down the chess piece in his hand and said, "Then your highness, what advice do you have for me?"

Tuoba Chen took a sip of tea and said, "It's not about giving me any advice. I came here to ask Your Majesty for a favor." He looked at Yuwen Ran with a half-smile.

"Who else is His Royal Highness the Prince wanting but can't get?" Yu Wenran smiled slightly. "I wonder who His Royal Highness the Prince wants to marry?"

"Gu Yanyue!" Tuoba Chen spoke.

Yuwen Ran stopped putting down the chess piece. "Prince, you're joking. Your Highness can have anything he wants, except her."

Tuoba Chen looked at Yuwen Ran. It was rare to see Yuwen Ran protecting someone so much. He frowned in confusion, "Didn't they say your relationship is not good?"
