The emperor did like the suggestion, but he never expected that Mu Qiluan would also care about it. What were his intentions in agreeing to it?
After getting a general idea of the other party's power, the emperor simply couldn't look him in the eye. Despite having been stationed on the distant frontier, half the ministers in the court obeyed him. Moreover, military power was entirely in his hands.
I thought the other party would immediately rebel after returning, but to my surprise, they didn't and there was no movement at all.
To be honest, half of the people in the court are his, and the unification of the country was achieved by his Mu family. If he wanted to rebel, there certainly wouldn't be many people who would dare to oppose him.
If he wanted to be emperor, there was absolutely no need for him to make his daughter a puppet; if he wanted to rebel, he would have done so long ago.
The emperor didn't say much, only that this matter required caution, and then he adjourned the court.
…
When Mu Qiluan finished his work in the afternoon and returned home, he heard that the princess had arrived.
Mu Qiluan walked quickly to the garden, unaware of what his wife was saying to the princess. The two seemed to be having a very pleasant conversation as they walked.
His wife seemed to be having too much fun chatting and didn't even notice where she was standing.
Qi Yaojin reacted very quickly and hugged the other person tightly.
He put his arm around Wan Ge's waist, getting extremely close to her, and could smell Wan Ge's own fragrance on his body.
Qi Yaojin couldn't help but touch her waist again. The general's wife's waist was so slender. It was probably exactly what they meant by "so thin you could hold it in your hand".
Before Qi Yaojin could react, Wan Ge had already left her embrace. When she looked up, she saw Mu Qiluan's gloomy eyes.
The fear that arose in Qi Yaojin's heart made her subconsciously take a step back.
"Your Highness has plenty of time?" Mu Qiluan asked in a gentle tone, his deep and magnetic voice inexplicably giving her a great sense of pressure.
Qi Yaojin couldn't explain why she was afraid of him, but she couldn't help feeling afraid whenever she saw him. Even though she had always been someone who had been high and mighty since childhood.
Perhaps it was because the other person had too much blood on their hands that I couldn't help but feel fear when I stood in front of them.
At this moment, Wan Ge spoke up: "I met Her Highness the Princess on the street when I went out today, and then invited her to the General's Mansion."
Why does he seem so hostile towards the female lead? Is it because he's the villain? Normally, aren't most villains villains because they love the female lead but can't have her, and that's how they end up becoming the main antagonists?
Although their villains are a bit different, they shouldn't have any deep-seated hatred towards the female lead, right?
Mu Qiluan gently patted Wan Ge's head: "In that case, Madam, please chat with the princess a little longer. I will go and prepare dinner for you. After His Highness inherits the throne, he won't have as much time to chat with you."
After saying that, Mu Qiluan kissed her forehead again, and then walked past Qi Yaojin.
? ? ?
Looking at Qi Yaojin's bewildered expression, Wan Ge was also puzzled: "What did he say to you?"
Just now, when Mu Qiluan walked past her, she saw him whisper something in her ear. Although the movement was subtle, she still noticed it.
Qi Yaojin shook her head: "It's nothing. It's getting late, and I should go back. I'm happy to have chatted with Madam Mu."
Qi Yaojin really thought that the general was being ridiculous, telling her to stay away from his wife? Hmm?
