"Xu Chu? Great! Are you really Xu Chu?"
Fengyun has become incoherent.
With him, Ma Chao, and a group of other powerful generals, he was no longer afraid of the attack from the three big guys.
But he soon calmed down.
The other party just came to him for help, not to follow him.
"Oh! My brother isn't Xu Chu, so who else could it be? You were so smart just now, why are you so stupid now?"
King Kong Barbie is really cute, but also straightforward.
Fengyun took her words to heart.
Just treat the other person as a little girl who is not very worldly-wise.
Xu Chu didn't show any expression, but rather looked a little worried.
"Yes, I am. Did the general already know that I had killed someone? Is he going to take me back?"
"No, no, no. I know your name, but it's not because of murder. Since you've already killed someone and it's irreparable, I can only try my best to help you. As for whether I can help you, I'm not sure. After all, your place is not Luoyang or Jian'an."
Fengyun's words were not an excuse, but he really was unable to do so.
Xu Chu immediately said:
"Thank you, General. The Xu family will be saved."
Fengyun was confused again when he heard this.
"Xu family? Could it be that your family members were arrested by the government?"
Xu Chu nodded and said:
"Yes, because I killed someone and implicated them. I don't dare go back now. I hope you can save them."
"How about I ask the court to issue a petition and ask them to release your family?"
But Xu Chu shook his head and said:
"No, that bully's family has very close ties with the county magistrate in our area. Memorials from the court are useless unless they are imperial edicts."
Fengyun frowned and said:
"Imperial edict? Is it necessary?"
"It's necessary. Only an imperial decree can force the county magistrate to rescind the charges against my parents. Otherwise, they will be executed in the autumn."
"The Imperial Edict..."
Fengyun frowned and repeated the two words.
Xu Chu still thought that the other party could not do it, so he increased the stakes.
"I heard that the Empress relies heavily on you, and you're the only one who can help me with this matter. I know it's difficult to ask for mercy from His Majesty, but I have no choice but to turn to you, General. If you can help me rescue my parents, I, Xu Chu, am willing to serve under you."
Fengyun was overjoyed after hearing this. He was willing to follow him.
Although it was not surrender, it meant that he had the opportunity to sever his earthly ties with Cao Cao.
"It's a deal."
Feng Yun didn't hesitate at all, which surprised Xu Chu.
"General, are you sure? Time is running out. If you're not sure, I'll find someone else to try."
"No need. I am 100% sure that I can get the imperial edict. Don't worry! Just wait for me for one day. I will come here tomorrow and hand the imperial edict to you."
"I don't think the general is one who likes to talk nonsense, so I will wait for the general for a day."
"Okay, it's a deal."
At this time, the agreement between Fengyun and Xu Chu was established.
If Fengyun doesn't bring the imperial edict tomorrow, he will never have the chance to see Xu Chu again in this life.
So Fengyun must go and get it, and this is not difficult for him.
When she returned to the harem, He Lian was eagerly waiting for his return.
After seeing Fengyun, He Lian immediately went up to him, hugged him and said resentfully:
"Where have you been? Did you go out for a drink?"
As he said this, he grabbed Fengyun's collar and sniffed him.
"No, I don't have such a blessing. I have a busy life. Someone is asking me for an imperial edict. Do you think I should give it to him or not?"
"What does that person want the imperial edict for?" He Lian wondered.
"He killed someone, and his family was implicated. He wants an imperial decree to save them. I think this is a small matter for you, so you can ignore it. But a matter of life and death is indeed a very important matter to an individual. I hope you can help him."
He Lian smiled, as if she saw through Feng Yun's thoughts. She rubbed Feng Yun's nose and said in a somewhat tough tone:
"Tell me! Was it a woman who begged you?"
Fengyun did not hide it:
"There was a woman there, but it wasn't her. It was an eight-foot-tall man who begged me. I saw him kill someone to save someone, so I felt I had to intervene."
He Lian looked at Feng Yun and said so, and smiled slightly:
"Okay, although I shouldn't be involved in such trivial matters, there are millions of people who need to die in this world, and I really can't take care of them all. But who told me to love you so much?"
Fengyun immediately stuffed an unpeeled grape into her mouth.
"Thank you, my little cutie."
He Lian was reluctant to spit out the grape skins and ate them whole, including the skins and seeds.
But she still had something to say.
"General, do you know? Even though we can't be husband and wife, in my heart you are my husband."
Feng Yun didn't know why He Lian suddenly said this to him, but he still stroked the back of her head and comforted her:
"Me too. We're nominally subjects, but in reality, we're husband and wife. The title is empty, so let's just not have it. Don't let it burden you."
He Lian was deeply moved by Feng Yun's words.
"General, thank you for your understanding. As the queen, I have no choice but to do this. But I really want to give birth to a child for you."
"Ah?" This made Fengyun confused.
Seeing Fengyun so surprised, He Lian was unhappy.
"Why don't you want to?"
Fengyun waved his hands quickly and said:
"No, I really hope we can have a child. But this is much more serious than you remarrying. If the ministers knew that you had a child, you might be deposed."
Seeing Fengyun was so worried about her, He Lian kissed Fengyun on the face.
"Since you're so considerate of me, I'll reward you with a kiss."
Then she smiled and said:
"I used to be afraid of getting pregnant, but I tried many times and found that I couldn't get pregnant."
He Lian knew Feng Yun's strength very well.
But she was very confused as to why she couldn't get pregnant.
There must be nothing wrong with me, otherwise I wouldn't have a braid.
But my man is so strong, why can't I have a child?
He could never resolve this doubt.
I want to ask Fengyun today.
Fengyun of course knew what she meant and said with a smile:
"Don't worry, I'm fine too. It's just that we belong to different species now, so you can't get pregnant."
"What's the meaning?"
"Because strictly speaking, I'm no longer a mortal. I'm considered half a cultivator. If you want to get pregnant, you have to become a cultivator. We also call it cultivating immortals."
Now all the doubts are resolved.
He Lian couldn't wait to ask:
"Then how can I cultivate immortality?"
Fengyun shook his head and said:
"Not now. If you want to cultivate immortality, you must at least leave the palace."
"What do you mean? Are you saying that I have to give up my identity as queen first?"
