Chapter 421 Meeting the Saint



In an instant, Min had opened the bed curtain wide.

But she said softly, "Your Highness, it's so hot out here, why are you covering yourself up so tightly? Two layers of bed curtains, isn't it too stuffy?"

As she spoke, Min's eyes looked sharply at Yue Haoyun's chest.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Min asked with concern.

I saw Yue Haoyun sitting on the bed with his clothes open. Next to him was a wooden tray with several medicine bottles and bloody gauze on it.

Yue Haoyun suddenly pulled up his clothes and said alertly, "Princess, please don't speak so loudly."

Min's gaze fell on the medicine bottles and the bloody gauze, and her eyes flashed.

Then she said in a tearful voice, "Your Highness, you are injured! Where is the injury? Let me take a look."

As he said that, he took a step forward and pulled open Yue Haoyun's collar.

Yue Haoyun quickly turned his back and said, "I was attacked on the way and was stabbed."

Although it was just a quick glance, Min keenly noticed that there was a deep wound on Yue Haoyun's left chest.

"It's so serious, I'll send someone to call the imperial physician right away!" Min's face was full of nervousness, but a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.

As she was about to walk out, Yue Haoyun immediately stood up, grabbed her wrist and said, "No need!"

"My injury looks serious, but it's actually nothing serious. I'll be fine after taking good care of myself for a while."

"Don't tell anyone, or else there will be trouble."

Min tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth: "I understand, Your Highness." After that, she walked out.

Yue Haoyun looked at Min's back and curled the corners of his lips in satisfaction.

That night, Min stuffed a small note into the pigeon's leg ring and released the pigeon.

The next morning.

In the rear hall of the Qingming Hall in the Dai Viet Imperial Palace, Han Lie and the Queen Mother stood together.

The Queen Mother whispered, "Last night, Min sent a message saying that she saw with her own eyes that the eldest prince was seriously injured."

"The wound is on the left front chest. It's a fatal wound."

"It certainly won't last long."

"However, he deliberately concealed the truth and told Min that his injuries were not serious."

"Hahaha, does he think Min is stupid? Can't he tell whether the injury is serious or not?"

As she spoke, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

The eldest prince Yue Haoyun is her biggest concern. As long as he is alive, she will worry about him.

Yue Haoyun's literary and military skills are far superior to her son's, and he is truly suitable to be an emperor.

And to this day, there are still many ministers in the court who support Yue Haoyun.

She was really worried that Yue Haoyun would seize the throne from her son.

Only when he dies can they, mother and son, rest in peace.

Han Lie frowned slightly: "Empress Dowager, why do I feel that this matter is a little strange?"

"When Yue Haoyun was assassinated, we predicted that he wouldn't live long. However, when the Great Xia delegation arrived in our Great Xia, the prince was still alive."

"Could it be that this injury is not serious?"

Empress Dowager Zhu Ling stretched out a finger and shook it. "Han Aiqing, have you forgotten? Han Lie had his followers lavishly purchase precious medicinal herbs along the way, and even consumed countless precious wild ginseng."

"With so many precious medicinal herbs hanging on to your life, it's not surprising to live a little longer."

At this moment, the eunuch reported: "Your Majesty, Lord Han, the envoys from Daxia have arrived."

Today is the day when the envoys from Daxia enter the palace to pay homage to the emperor.

The place for the audience is set in the Qingming Hall.

Because it was still early, the Empress Dowager had a secret conversation with Han Lie in the back hall for a while.

At this moment, the eunuch announced that the envoy had arrived, so the Empress Dowager and Han Lie walked towards the front hall together.

In the front hall, the young emperor of Dai Viet sat upright on the dragon throne, with eight important officials sitting on both sides.

The Empress Dowager and Han Lie also sat in their seats.

Then, a eunuch at the door shouted in a shrill voice: "Please invite the envoy from Daxia to come into the palace to see the emperor!"

The second prince and Han Qingbo, dressed in the official uniforms of the Great Xia Dynasty, walked in calmly with square steps.

Behind them were several followers, holding gifts from Daxia to Dayue.

Everyone saluted the Emperor and the Empress Dowager, and the ministers on both sides also stood up and bowed slightly.

"Are you the second prince of Da Xia who swept across the northern border?" The little emperor Yue Haoming stared at the second prince for several times.

The Empress Dowager frowned and whispered, "My son, be careful with your words!"

Yue Haoming glanced at the Queen Mother with dissatisfaction and retorted, "I'm just asking what's wrong. I'm just curious."

The Empress Dowager's face instantly became uglier than constipation.

The Second Prince bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I was just lucky enough to win some military merits by following the veterans."

On the other side, outside the main hall, in the corridor, Xia Miaoyuan was sitting on the corridor, swinging her little feet leisurely.

On the list of Daxia envoys, there were only the Second Prince and Han Qingbo. Naturally, she was not on the list. After all, she was just a four-year-old kid.

In order to get her to go with him, Xia Zhengqi had to announce to the public that his daughter was crying and insisted on going with the Second Prince, and there was nothing he could do.

So, Xia Miaoyuan came to Dayue this time, nominally because he was a willful child and followed along.

Since her name was not on the list of envoys, it was not appropriate for her to participate in such a formal occasion as entering the Qingming Hall to meet the emperor.

So, when the Second Prince and his companions entered the palace, Xia Miaoyuan stayed outside.

She thought that even if she couldn't enter the palace, she could still go in to see the excitement and visit the Dai Viet Royal Palace.

The style of the Dai Viet Imperial Palace is indeed quite different from that of our Great Xia.

Xia Miaoyuan was thinking in his mind when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a tall figure walking towards him.

[Huh? What? He looks familiar!]

Xia Miaoyuan stared at the figure closely, and saw him walking out of the side hall next to Qingming Hall with two books in his hands.

The man was wearing a red official uniform, he was tall and had an extraordinary bearing.

He walked slowly towards her with graceful steps.

[Liang Chaozong, yes, his back looks a lot like Liang Chaozong!] Xia Miaoyuan finally figured out who he resembled.

But when the man got closer, Xia Miaoyuan discovered that his face was so different from Liang Chaozong's that they were not the same person at all. He felt very discouraged.

When the man passed by the young eunuch, he only heard the young eunuch bow his head respectfully and said, "Master Liang!"

When Xia Miaoyuan heard this name, his heart skipped a beat.

Ah! His last name is Liang! His last name is Liang too!

She couldn't help but look at Lord Liang's face.

When Lord Liang walked up to her, he smiled gently at her.
