"Uncle, please wait a moment."
"good!"
Xing Bang nodded, and the maid guarding the door bowed and pushed the door open.
The maid who led Xing Bang over also bowed and left.
Soon, the maid who went in to report came out again and respectfully made a gesture of invitation, "The princess wants you to come in, son-in-law, please!"
Xing Bang went in without hesitation. The maid did not follow him, but closed the door from the outside.
This is a magnificent suite. What comes into view is the outer hall, where my mother-in-law is already sitting on the couch.
Xing Bang walked forward quickly and took a look subconsciously. The wedding attire had been changed out and replaced with a relatively plain dress, which seemed less solemn.
However, it still retains its dignity, elegance and good temperament!

"My dear son-in-law, I meet my mother-in-law!"
"No need to be polite, just sit down!"
Cui Daimei kindly gestured for him to sit on the left.
Xing Bang sat down without any hesitation. Of course, he was sincere and respectful to this unfamiliar mother-in-law. Judging from the degree of friendliness, she was very fond of him as a son-in-law.
"I probably know everything about you and Xi'er..."
"There's no one else in the room. If you're thirsty, go ahead."
"It's okay. Just tell me what you want to do."
Cui Daimei meant that no one served tea, and Xing Bang naturally would not choose this gift. There were no outsiders in the room, so it was obvious that there was something she wanted to say that she didn't want others to know.
Cui Daimei nodded, "Okay, then I will speak frankly, and I hope you can tell me some things frankly."
"Okay, sure!"
Xing Bang responded. His secrets were all known, so there was nothing he couldn't tell. Besides, he could probably guess what his mother-in-law wanted to ask.
"I have to say, your strategy and courage are truly extraordinary!"
"You compliment me."
Xing Bang didn't say much, just agreed casually. Her meaning was very clear. She knew without asking that he didn't come here to surrender sincerely this time.
Not asking any more questions and having a calm expression was the best answer. Cui Daimei naturally saw it and thought that her son-in-law was really a smart man.
Although he looks calm, he probably knows everything better than anyone else, and may have even guessed his own intentions.
However, she had no intention of playing tricks on him and wanted to make things clear.
"The prince may be happy about your visit, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have any suspicions. You need to be more careful."
"I could have anticipated this, and I had already thought of a countermeasure!"
Xing Bang nodded. She couldn't possibly think that she couldn't think of this level, but she still reminded him deliberately.
From her words and actions, she did not show any intention of asking further questions, nor did she want to ask how to answer. It was just a reminder.
This made Xing Bang a little confused.
"Mother-in-law, I have some entanglements in my heart. You seem to be a little too biased towards me, right?"
It was obvious that Xing Bang had such doubts. As the concubine of King Zhenbei, she should remain neutral when facing such issues.
Since Cui Daimei would rather die than leave the palace, the current situation is completely inconsistent with her character.
It is not difficult to imagine that the reason why she did this was not only because of her steadfast character, but also because she definitely wanted to remain faithful to the King of Zhenbei.
Hearing this, Cui Daimei was not too surprised. She just looked towards Xing Bang subconsciously, thinking to herself, he is really sharp and can observe even the smallest details.
"You are right. This is not what I really think. In other words, today's result is not what I want to see."
"But now that things have come to this, what I say and do can no longer influence the current situation. The prince will undoubtedly lose."
"Of course, what's more, I don't want to see him grovel and surrender to Northern Qi."
At this point, she had explained it clearly enough, and Xing Bang naturally understood it.
In other words, if the King of Zhenbei had enough backbone, she would stand on her husband's side, and even if she died, she would do her last bit as a wife.
If that’s the case, it’s really hard to persuade him!
Xing Bang had such doubts in his mind, but now was not the time to persuade her. Obviously, the important words had not been said yet.
"I said this, I think you should understand that this matter is not the point!"
"You can say whatever you want."
Xing Bang nodded, knowing that something important needed to be said.
Cui Daimei did not hesitate and said bluntly: "If you had not come to Yanjing City, I would have really given up this idea. This may be God's will, and it may be the only remaining hope for the Zhenbei Army."
Hearing this, Xing Bang frowned slightly. This was quite interesting, but he didn't say anything.
Cui Daimei glanced at Xing Bang, and then continued: "Whether the Zhenbei Army switches to Northern Qi or fights with the imperial army, it consumes Dayao's military power, and the ultimate beneficiary is Northern Qi."
Xing Bang nodded, "Yes, that's the truth."
She is really not a simple woman, she is such a good and virtuous wife!
However, unfortunately, Liu Li only regarded her as a woman.
When Cui Daimei saw that Xing Bang agreed, her face showed some joy, so she stopped beating around the bush.
"My idea is, what if the imperial court issues an order to give the Zhenbei Army a chance to redeem themselves from their crimes?"
"You mean..."
At this point, Xing Bang blurted out, obviously guessing the intention of this knowledgeable mother-in-law.
"Tell me about it!"
Hearing this, Cui Daimei did not continue speaking, but looked at Xing Bang with some surprise.
Yes, he guessed her intention so quickly. Could it be that he had also considered this matter?
There is also some joy and anticipation. If it happens to be a coincidence, then the probability of this happening will increase a lot.
"Let me turn to the Chen court and have the King of Zhenbei lead the army to attack Northern Qi, okay?"
"Yes, that's right!
Have you ever had this idea before?"
A hint of joy suddenly appeared on Cui Daimei's face. She really thought so. She couldn't help but ask another question in joy.
"I certainly thought about it before!"
Although Xing Bang's previous considerations were somewhat different from this, he still agreed.
After all, this idea is quite compassionate.
"Then, can you promise to do your best to make this happen?"
After saying that, Cui Daimei looked at Xing Bang expectantly.
