The wise king left in a hurry, and in the end the guards only saw a back figure and could not see clearly who it was.
When we entered the main hall, we only saw Concubine Xiao praying devoutly there.
The guards were afraid of disturbing the imperial concubine, so they just asked a few questions and then left.
When the emperor heard the report from the imperial guards, his eyes flickered slightly. Now all the temples have been closed for praying.
Now, only the people in the imperial temple are from the palace, and judging from the backs, they are men, so they are only the princes.
Therefore, even though the emperor knew that the imperial guards had not seen anyone, he was still alert and only asked, "What is Concubine Xiao doing?"
The guards did not dare to hide it and replied, "I didn't dare to get too close, but when I asked Concubine Xiao, he was getting better."
"You go down first." The emperor didn't say anything. Instead, he was thinking about who had passed the message to the imperial guards that there was an unusual movement in the hall.
This person was naturally Fu Yunxi. As early as in the daytime when she heard Xiao Yimo say that she wanted to pray in the hall, she guessed that she was going to meet the virtuous king in private.
When Fu Yunxi went out for a stroll at night, he happened to see the virtuous king walking towards the main hall, and then he quickly notified the imperial guards.
Even if the guards cannot capture the virtuous king, it will still make the emperor suspicious.
The emperor couldn't guess who informed him, but he became more wary of Xiao Yimo. After all, the imperial guards had clearly heard the man's voice, but Xiao Yimo said that there was no one there.
After the virtuous king left the hall, his tense body finally relaxed. How could it be such a coincidence today? Could someone have tipped him off?
He finally reached an agreement with Xiao Yimo, but he couldn't let anything go wrong at this time.
It seems that he has to plan ahead so that when his men return from the border, he will have more troops under his control.
Thinking of this, the wise king's eyes darkened.
Although he has been much more low-key in recent years, his royal brother is obviously more wary of him.
After returning to the palace, the emperor pretended nothing had happened and often went to Weiyang Palace, but he did not find anything unusual.
Xiao Yimo didn't expect the emperor to be so suspicious, and she was also a little puzzled why the wise king hadn't contacted her for some time.
However, nothing major happened in the court. After all, the court officials were still worried about the war at the border, and all they talked about when they went to court was the situation at the border.
"It has been more than a month now, and the war at the border is still intense. I'm afraid we need to send more food and fodder." Wen Jingming said. After all, food and fodder are the most important things for soldiers fighting.
The emperor frowned and agreed to his proposal.
The wise king was also a little uneasy at this time. According to his agreement, there should have been good news soon, but now there was no movement at all.
After the court meeting, Xiao Yimo came to the Qinzheng Hall to find the emperor, thinking that she could meet the virtuous king by chance. However, she did not see the virtuous king, but instead met Wen Jingming, whom she had not seen for a long time.
"Brother Jingming, have you been deliberately avoiding me these days?" Xiao Yimo's face showed some grievance. It was very distressing to see the beauty crying.
"Your Majesty, please don't address me like this next time." Wen Jingming was not moved by Xiao Yimo's tears, but spoke righteously instead.
The emperor had just mentioned the matter of the imperial temple to him. Wen Jingming knew in his previous life that Xiao Yimo had many admirers, and he had many romantic interests before his death.
"What's so good about Fu Yunxi? Is the Prime Minister possessed by a ghost?" Seeing Wen Jingming's attitude towards her, Fu Yunxi could no longer bear the bitterness in her heart and questioned.
"I owed her in my previous life, Your Majesty. I still regard you as my sister." Wen Jingming said gently, as if trying to ease the relationship between the two.
Xiao Yimo was even more angry. Wen Jingming used to look at her with eyes full of affection, but now he said that he only treated her as a younger sister.
She didn't believe what the man said. He just fell in love with another woman and talked about his affectionate love for her.
Xiao Yimo did not hate Wen Jingming, but hated Fu Yunxi instead. She was already engaged to the Shen family, yet Wen Jingming could still remember her.
Her current status was that of a noble concubine, so it wouldn't be difficult for her to embarrass a woman. However, Fu Yunxi's backer was the eldest princess, and she was already very frightened by the medicines the eldest princess had given her last time, so she naturally didn't dare to offend her again.
So Xiao Yimo touched her belly. If she could get pregnant, she would be able to have a son even though she was poor.
The virtuous prince also sent a secret letter at this time. With the virtuous prince as a comparison, Xiao Yimo felt that the emperor was not that good. After all, she could never become the queen.
Moreover, the emperor was not as gentle as the virtuous prince. Most of the time, she was the one who coaxed the emperor, while the virtuous prince would coax her.
That night, the emperor was in the Weiyang Palace. After Xiao Yimo slept with him, she drank contraceptive medicine on her own the next morning and wrote a letter to the virtuous king.
The next day, the virtuous king quietly entered the palace, disguised as a guard, and no one noticed.
After arriving at the Weiyang Palace, the two of them had sex passionately, and waited until late at night before the virtuous king quietly left the palace.
Because the two were born only one day apart, even if the Jingshifang recorded the date, when the baby was pregnant, they would think that it was the emperor's heir.
The emperor only suspected that Xiao Yimo would pass on the message, and never thought that the two were so bold as to come up with such an idea.
Fu Yunxi also received a letter from Shen Moye, just saying that he was fine.
However, the news she received from the eldest princess was not like this. Fu Yunxi was a little anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She could only hope that Shen Moye was safe.
She told her father that she wanted to stay at the Princess's residence for a few days. Fu Zhuo was of course happy to do so and went with her.
"Princess, you must help me this time." After arriving at the Princess's Mansion, Fu Yunxi told her his plan.
"You are a weak woman, why are you going to the border?" The eldest princess frowned and said.
She didn't expect Fu Yunxi to be so brave. The border was full of enemy troops and she would lose her life if she wasn't careful.
However, she admired her courage very much. When she was young, she also wanted to go to the border to find General Shen, but due to etiquette and other reasons, she never went.
Now when I think about how I was too conventional when I was young, I feel a little regretful.
"I know some self-defense skills and can protect myself naturally. Shen Moye has been at the border for so long, I want to see what the situation is there." Fu Yunxi said. Her lightness skills are pretty good, so if she encounters danger and can't fight, she will run away.
Wuxin felt that his host was a little abnormal this time. He did not stay in the capital to watch Xiao Yimo's actions, but went to the border instead.
"Don't I know everything about them? What's the point of just standing here and watching?" Fu Yunxi replied to Wuxin with his mind.
Xiao Yimo has just hooked up with the virtuous king. As long as he doesn't ascend the throne in the end, he will be a traitor.
In the end, the princess couldn't persuade Fu Yunxi and agreed to help her keep it secret, and Fu Yunxi rushed to the border.
