Chapter 3484 Mutation

"Why haven't they come back yet?"

Xinping walked out while mumbling and pouting. The maid Chuyun and the young eunuch Jinzhong followed her with bent waists. Chuyun smiled and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. The Emperor is meeting with the King of Yue today. It's not a small matter. How can it be over in a short time?"

Xinping looked back at her and said with some displeasure, "But what is there to say to those people?"

“…”

"Those people took so much food from us and threw it away everywhere. Our people are not getting enough to eat. I say we should take the food back and have nothing to do with them anymore!"

Naturally, what she said was a bit willful.

As early as when Liu Yueze stayed in the capital to teach her, he had subtly told her that diplomatic relations between countries could not be as easy as interactions between people. However, she had been angry with Zhu Feng because of the food and disaster victims, and what she said at this time could not help but be a little arrogant and willful, even unreasonable.

Although Chu Yun and Jinzhong were just palace maids and eunuchs, they were carefully selected by Nan Yan and placed by her side. They did not understand the big principles, but they were not ignorant either. The two looked at each other and could only smile bitterly.

Chu Yun said, "Your Highness, please don't be so willful."

"snort!"

Although Xinping was unhappy, she seemed to know that what she said made no sense at all. No wonder no one paid any attention to her. She didn't say much, but just lifted her skirt and continued to walk out.

Jinzhong hurriedly followed and whispered, "Your Highness, please don't go out anymore. The Emperor has ordered that Your Highness can only stay in the South Courtyard and cannot go out."

Xinping stamped his feet and said, "I'm not a criminal, why are you watching me so closely?"

Jinzhong said, "The Emperor and the Empress went out early in the morning, so they should be back by now. If Your Highness goes out, you might run into them."

Hearing this, Xinping hesitated for a moment.

Although she had been waiting for the emperor and the imperial concubine to return since they left the South Courtyard in the morning, she was still very hesitant about meeting her father.

Thinking of this, my pace slowed down.

At this moment, they had already walked near the gate. Just in front of them, two servants from the garden gathered together and talked about something. Their voices were neither loud nor low, and reached Xinping's ears.

"Your Majesty, have they not returned yet?"

"The two monarchs are meeting. How can we just come back after a meal?"

Xinping couldn't help but pout when she heard this, while Chuyun and Jinzhong behind her couldn't help but cover their mouths and laugh.

One of the attendants said, "Besides, how long would it take to transport all the food and jewels that the Emperor took with him before he left?"

Jewelry? Food?

Xinping's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. He couldn't help but hold his breath and took two steps forward.

Another attendant immediately said, "I saw it too. I heard that they prepared it last night and kept it a secret. Do you know what they were used for?"

"Is that even a question?"

"I don't understand."

"You have a pig's brain. The emperor is going to meet with the King of Yue today and brought these things with him. If they are not for the King of Yue, then are you taking them to show off?"

Xinping's brows suddenly furrowed.

The attendant opened his eyes wide in surprise: "So many good things, and you gave them all to people?"

"well."

"Why? The Vietnamese have made so much money from us over the years, and now we're giving them jewelry. Isn't this just fattening them up?"

"Isn't it? But these things are not for us to know."

"I really don't understand. Although there hasn't been any fighting on the border these days, it's not quiet at all. The Vietnamese come here to harass us from time to time. Last time, they seriously injured so many people. I thought the emperor would come here to support us and show some strength, but who knew—"

"Ah, this time, our faces are all swollen."

Xinping gritted his teeth and listened in silence, his eyes gradually turning red and his fists clenched tightly.

When Chu Yun and Jin Zhong heard what the two attendants said, their faces darkened. But when they saw Xin Ping's expression, they both secretly thought that something was wrong.

At this moment, a familiar voice shouted solemnly: "What nonsense are you talking about!"

The two attendants looked up and saw Li Bushang coming in from outside.

The two men immediately bowed in greeting. Li Bushan, with his hands behind his back, said with a gloomy expression, "The Emperor arranged these things in secret, not wanting anyone to know. You're making such a big fuss here, are you afraid others won't know?"

The two men begged for mercy again and again.

Li Bushang said, "Back off! Stop talking nonsense here, and don't let the princess hear these words!"

"yes."

At this time, Xinping's face turned red and white, and it felt hot as if she had been slapped in the face. She had never felt so uncomfortable before, and it was even more uncomfortable than when she was slapped by Zhu Feng. She could no longer bear it, and turned around and ran away with red eyes.

"Your Highness!"

Chu Yun and Jinzhong panicked and hurriedly followed.

On the other side, the two servants had already retreated. Li Bushang stood where he was, slowly turning his head. From the corner of his eyes, he could clearly see Xinping trotting away in anger. A cold light flashed in his wolf-like eyes.

At the same time, the king of Yue also returned to Doubei Town.

After Chen Biri witnessed the rice seedlings being trampled, vomited blood and fainted due to anger, Li Wuyu was also shocked. Although he was dissatisfied with Chen Biri's constant opposition to him on this matter, he was, after all, a veteran of two dynasties, and there were still many matters in the court that needed his attention.

If he wasn't there, wouldn't I still have to deal with government affairs every day?

Thinking of this, Li Wu Yu hurriedly had the unconscious Chen Biri carried onto the carriage, and the group hurried back to Doubei Town.

Although he was still holding Hu Meir in his arms, he still sent Chen Biri back to his residence first. The common people had been driven away long ago, but they still stood at both ends of the long street, wishing they could stretch their necks several feet to see clearly what was happening here.

The carriage stopped at the door of Chen's house.

The people in the mansion had already knelt on both sides of the gate. After Chen Wenxiao and Chen Wenxiong got out of the car and gave a few instructions, the people in the mansion panicked when they learned that the master had fainted, and hurriedly carried the person in. Although Li Wuyu sent the person there, he was still thinking about the cart of jewels and had to go back to spend time with the beauty, so naturally he didn't want to stay.

The Chen brothers also noticed it, and they just stood under the carriage respectfully and listened to his orders. Li Wuyu sat in the carriage and ordered them: "You have to be good--"

Before he could finish his words, his tongue suddenly froze.
