Prince of the North Qiang felt that there was no hope in his life, he had no strength, and did not know how to resist anymore.
"The First Prince, ’greedy’ means that he has a blade on his head. If it wasn’t for Hu Xiao being quick-witted, she would be crying now due to the South Yue." Lu Yin said meaningfully, and threw a sympathetic look at Prince of the North Qiang, but did not laugh at him.
The words on the blade seemed like a magic spell to Prince of the North Qiang. He was discouraged, hated South Yue, hated Lu Yin, hated Hu Xiao even more!
"Men, arrest them all! Kill those who resist!" Suddenly, the King of the South Yue fiercely said that his throne could not be desecrated by the Prince of the North Qiang.
Prince of the North Qiang was locked up in the prison. Looking at the dark prison cell, his heart grew cold, he had never received such treatment before, only after entering the prison did he accept the reality of failure.
"This time, I’m definitely going to die." The two of them did not speak as Lu Yin accompanied him throughout the journey. They walked past one cell after another and observed the criminals inside.
However, he was still unwilling to believe who had come up with this idea. A woman was actually this powerful?
"Lu Yin, tell me the truth, who came up with this idea?" Prince of the North Qiang asked again in disbelief. This time, his mind was clear, and not as muddled as before.
Lu Yin looked at him and said flatly, "First Prince, I’ve already explained everything clearly."
The idea was naturally Hu Xiao, who was just responsible for the concrete implementation.
On the other hand, after the Prince of the North Qiang was taken away, Hu Xiao stayed back.
King of the South Yue had long since changed his life clothes. It was not good to wear it, so he rejected it.
He wore a royal yellow robe and lay in the coffin for a whole day. All his bones ached.
"Royal sister, what you want to do next, it’s up to you." King of the South Yue drank a mouthful of tea and said happily.
The plan was set up by Hu Xiao, so the details on how to handle Prince of the North Qiang were left up to Hu Xiao to decide.
Hu Xiao pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "Royal Brother, in my opinion, we should just return Prince of the North Qiang, to demonstrate our magnanimity, and Prince of the North Qiang’s desire to swallow South Yue, is unreasonable. I think, this matter has already spread to the other two countries, they will definitely secretly mock North Qiang’s greed, and do not dare to easily invite North Qiang to their country."
Hu Xiao analyzed the situation once, and the Prince of the North Qiang reaped the consequences. This was the entire humiliation of his North Qiang, and once he returned, the North Qiang King would definitely not let him get off scot-free.
She paused for a moment, then continued, "Royal Brother, with our current strength, it is not suitable for us to start a war with North Qiang.
If the South Yue was angered and took action against the Prince of the North Qiang, then the North Qiang would not leave it at that.
Therefore, after some consideration, Hu Xiao suggested that the King of the South Yue should release the Prince of the North Qiang. This way, it would help maintain the camaraderie between the two countries on the surface, and prevent them from meeting face to face.
After listening to her analysis, South Yue nodded his head. His thoughts coincided with Hu Xiao’s, so he sent an ambassador to send Prince of the North Qiang back.
Along the way, the Prince of the North Qiang was frighteningly silent.
On the other side, after Hu Xiao finished taking care of things, she went to Qin Shuo’s residence. Seeing that Hu Xiao was completely fine, Qin Shuo immediately calmed down.
"Did you worry about me when I was at the palace?" Hu Xiao said casually, not caring about the presence of Mo Zhu and the others. "You heartless fool, you didn’t come to the palace to see me.
She quickly walked to Qin Shuo’s side and sized him up. She discovered that after not seeing him for two or three days, Qin Shuo had lost a lot of weight.
"If I enter the palace to look for you, then you should blame me for being too nosy." Qin Shuo chuckled. He patted Hu Xiao’s head and couldn’t help but let out a laugh.
Qin Shuo’s eyes turned slightly, his eyes were filled with laughter, and at that moment, he held onto Hu Xiao’s wrist, and said softly: Xiaoxiao, everything has been settled, shouldn’t you go home?
His voice was filled with anticipation for his beloved wife’s return. The matter of South Yue had already been settled, so his little delicate wife should return to his side.
Qin Shuo rolled his eyes and said puzzledly: "Qin Shuo, what are you talking about? What are you talking about, going home, isn’t this our home? Didn’t you already become a wife, where do you want to go?"
Make him, a dignified king of East Court, marry? If he were to marry into the clan, what would happen to the East Court? Would they want him to abandon his ancestors?
Qin Shuo quickly glanced at his subordinate who was at the side and felt extremely awkward. He could just speak of these things privately, why did he even mention it on the stage?
He had an embarrassed smile on his face, following that, he carried Hu Xiao and said while walking: "Xiaoxiao, look at what you’re saying, let’s go back to our room and talk. Sigh, I can’t stand you."
"Oh oh oh? If you can’t take it, I’ll let go. Who told you to stick to me forever."
Hu Xiao’s voice came from far away, Mo Zhu and the rest looked at each other, and laughed heartily.
"Pack your things first. We’ll be leaving in two days." Mo Zhu seemed to have the ability to scheme and instructed.
"Military Advisor, what if the Empress doesn’t want to go back?" Just now, the Empress clearly said that she wanted the Emperor to stay in the South Yue.
If the Empress was unwilling to return to the East Court, wouldn’t it be a waste of time to take care of her?
After hearing this, Mo Zhu’s gaze swept across him and he said in a funny voice, "Marrying a chicken and a dog will be the same. We have to believe in the words of the emperor."
As soon as he finished, the room burst into laughter again.
"Advisor, someone from South Yue’s palace has arrived." A light voice came from the door. Mo Zhu looked over and nodded at him.
The one who came was the personal guard of the King of the South Yue. He cupped his hands towards Mo Zhu to show his respect.
"Mr Mo Zhu, under the orders of the Emperor, I have come to invite mister into the palace." The guard respectfully said. He lowered his head, but didn’t raise it.
"I wonder if your majesty has anything to say?" Mo Zhu drank a mouthful of tea and then asked with a smile. For him to enter the palace, he had to at least let him know what was going on!
"Teacher is a genius, the emperor just wants to meet you." the guard said implicitly.
Mo Zhu thought for a while, then directly entered the palace instead of reporting to Qin Shuo about the situation.
Before leaving, he instructed, "If the emperor asks about me later, tell him that I entered the palace to meet the King of the South Yue. Do you understand?"
"Yes, advisor. We understand." The subordinate cupped his hands and nodded.
