Even a rough guy can be warm-hearted sometimes.
It's just that this warmth comes at the wrong time.
Chu Ruzhi was a little panicked. After all, she and Cheng Qiu had negotiated for so many years before they finally got together. It would be terrible if he misunderstood that she was having an affair.
"I'm having a private conversation with the Queen. I'll come to the front to find you later." Chu Ruzhi silently ordered him to leave.
But Cheng Qiu didn't realize the hidden meaning in her words at all, and said openly: "This is a batch of Shu brocade I ordered from Shu. I asked someone to bring it over. You and your queen can choose together!"
It's not the right time for him to be generous.
Su Bei broke out in a cold sweat, fearing that Xian Yu behind the screen would suddenly wake up.
Then she suddenly had an idea and said, "Aunt, I'm a little tired. You and Prince Jingnan go ahead and pick them. I'll rest here for a while."
This suggestion solved Chu Ruzhi's urgent need, and she quickly agreed, "Let's go, Prince, let's not disturb the Queen's rest."
No matter how ignorant Cheng Qiu was, he had no choice but to follow Chu Ruzhi out.
By the way, Chu Ruzhi also ordered the servants, "Stay away and don't make any noise to disturb the Queen's rest!"
It makes northern Jiangsu look like a grand event.
In fact, she is still waiting for the aftermath.
After seeing Chu Ruzhi and Cheng Qiu off, Su Bei walked behind the screen.
She was worried that Xianyu would wake up suddenly, but she didn't expect that good things would not work and bad things would happen. Before she could get close, Xianyu came out on his own.
"Are you the Lady of the Nine Heavens who has fallen to the mortal world? When I saw you that day, I missed you like crazy and couldn't sleep at night. I just wanted to see you again. Was this a dream?" Xianyu's eyes were affectionate and his tone was affectionate. He was truly a romantic man.
Su Bei rolled his eyes at him and said coldly, "Do you want to get out by yourself, or do you want me to get you out?"
"I don't care how I roll. If I hold you in my arms, even if it means I roll down a cliff or onto a mountain of knives, I will be happy with it..." Xian Yu was still affectionate.
Su Bei felt like vomiting.
But the most urgent thing is to get him away without alerting others.
She wanted to take action.
Xian Yu spoke again, "Miss, don't worry. I will be responsible for you. I will take you to Xian Country and you will be the queen as usual."
How can they be the same? Xian Kingdom is a tiny country, how can the queen of Xian Kingdom be compared with the queen of Wu Kingdom? ! However, Xian Yu was obviously extremely confident. Not only did he think that he was very cool as the king of Xian, he also thought that he was very handsome.
"I am like a fairy in a painting, and you are like the goddess of the sky. We are a match made in heaven..."
Su Bei really couldn't help it, but he didn't expect this guy to suddenly have a brain spasm and say something shocking.
"As long as you come with me, I will no longer care about my father's concubines, my cousins, and even my favorite aunt. I will drive her to a nunnery!"
Su Bei was really shocked. What kind of fantastic plot was this? Could it be that Xian Yu had slept with all the women in his entire family?
She was so shocked that she forgot to take action and took a step forward.
However, what surprised Su Bei even more was that a person suddenly ran out from behind the screen and knocked Xianyu down with a vase.
It was still the same position, and the attack was even more brutal than Su Bei's. This time, there was bleeding, very heavy.
"Bastard!" After knocking Xian Yu unconscious, King Xian stepped on him a few times.
The foot hit the vital part, I guess... it's broken into pieces...
Xianyu was awakened by the pain and was about to shout when he was hit by a vase and fainted again.
"Excuse me!" King Xian bowed, picked up Xian Yu and ran out of the back window.
He had been with Xianyu for several days. Originally, thinking of the father-son relationship they had for so many years, he just wanted to kidnap Xianyu and that was it. But who knew he would hear these words just now...
His concubine...
His nieces and nephews...
And his sister...
This little bastard deserves to die!
Su Bei was confused. Who was that person? Was he a chivalrous man?
But she couldn't just sit there, there was a lot of blood and broken vases on the ground, she had to clean them up.
This incident seemed like a dream, and there was no follow-up. However, a few days later, the people from Xian Country asked to see him again.
I thought the person who came this time was the Queen Mother of Xian Kingdom, but unexpectedly, Su Bei felt that the person who came this time looked a little familiar.
At first she didn't recognize who it was until he said, "I shouldn't have disturbed the Emperor and Empress..."
disturb……
These two words brought back memories for Su Bei.
The person in front of him overlapped with the person who knocked Xianyu unconscious in Prince Jingnan's Mansion that day.
The one who came to the audience today was King Xian Liao, the king of Xian.
"I shouldn't have disturbed the Emperor and Empress, but I have a favor to ask." Xian Liao said solemnly, "My family is in misfortune. The Queen of my country usurped the throne and stole my jade seal. Now she is hiding in the capital. I beg the Emperor to send troops to search for her and return my jade seal to me!"
That day he took Xian Yu away, but because he was alone, Xian Liao slipped away. When he went to look for the Queen Mother of Xian, she was nowhere to be found.
He was helpless and could only rely on the military token and ask Chu Younan for help in the capacity of King Xian.
This is not a difficult matter for Chu Younan, but...
"The Xian Kingdom is inciting other countries to attack our Wu Kingdom. Why should I help you?" Chu Younan said in a deep voice.
King Xian had already made preparations. He knelt down humbly and said, "Xian is willing to submit to Wu forever and become Wu's territory!"
In fact, Chu Younan didn't care whether he belonged to the country or not. Xian Kingdom was just a small country. He could destroy Xian Kingdom by just sending some soldiers there.
Chu Younan shook his head. "King Xian is on good terms with the Northland. How do I know whether your submission is genuine or fake?"
King Xian was also prepared for this.
He said solemnly, "To be honest, I came here to buy medicine for the Dark Emperor. As long as I add something to the medicine, the Dark Emperor will die suddenly. By then, the whole world will belong to Wu Nation."
Chu Younan still shook his head and said nothing. He heard that King Xian had another plan.
As expected, King Xian cupped his hands and said, "I have another secret. The Dark Emperor got a Gu King and intends to use it to control the emperor. If the emperor can help me restore my country, I will find a way to steal the Gu King!"
This time, Chu Younan was satisfied.
"Someone, come here! Send people to search the capital city. No one is allowed to enter or leave. Make sure to capture Xianyu and his mother!"
Chu Younan took such a ruthless action not only because he wanted the Gu that King Xian Liao had mentioned, but most importantly, he heard his thoughts as soon as Xian Liao came in.
It turned out that Xian Yu had flirted with the Queen of Wu that day. That bastard was really bold! Chu Younan really wanted to rip off his skin for daring to flirt with his little Beibei!
