Zhong Changyao left the palace.
He took advantage of the Emperor Fan's absence to find the other party.
By the way, he told Fan State Emperor Fan Miaozhou that it seemed that he would not help him steal the secrets of Yue State.
When the Emperor of Fan heard this, his face darkened: "Rebellious son!"
Then he asked, "Does the Imperial Master have any solution?"
Zhong Changyao was waiting for this sentence and said with a smile: "The day when Prince Zhou and Xie Shizhu get married is the best time."
Hearing this, the emperor was stunned: "So fast?"
Zhong Changyao looked down at the water in his teacup, a determined smile curling his lips. "On that day, the entire Yue Kingdom will be preparing for the wedding. Your Majesty will also be there. When the time comes, we'll ambush the enemy with our troops outside and attack at night."
The emperor also wanted to recapture the Yue Kingdom as soon as possible.
Although the Yue Kingdom is very poor, it has great prospects for development. Tea is an industry that can bring profits, not to mention the Yue Kingdom's territory.
He asked impatiently, "Is what the Imperial Master said serious?"
Zhong Changyao nodded: "Really."
The emperor asked again: "What does the Imperial Master want?"
Zhong Changyao played with the teacup with his fingertips and said slowly, "I want to thank Shi Zhu."
The emperor was stunned, with a look of astonishment on his face.
He never expected that Zhong Changyao would do this for a woman.
But it is understandable that if the Queen of the Moon Country can be so infatuated with her own son, it is understandable that Zhong Changyao cannot be spared.
After all, even heroes cannot resist the temptation of beautiful women.
The Emperor of Fan said, "Okay."

Zhuo Ping is a guard in Xie Shizhu's palace.
He stayed in the temple all the time, and now he was about to take the medicine given by his master.
Suddenly, footsteps were heard behind him, interrupting his movements.
Zhuo Ping turned around and saw Xie Shizhu standing behind him, with Xie Ji beside him.
He was stunned and quickly knelt down to salute.
Xie Shizhu didn't expect that Xie Ji would come to him on his own initiative.
She originally planned to take Xie Ji out of the palace and send him to the study to study, but she didn't expect to see the sneaky Zhuo Ping.
Xie Shizhu asked: "What were you doing just now?"
Zhuo Ping raised his head and looked at Xie Shizhu, his eyes accidentally sweeping over Xie Ji.
Then, he saw the man's cold eyes, staring at him coldly.
Zhuo Ping felt inexplicably guilty and stammered, "Your Majesty, I am taking medicine."
Xie Shizhu didn't ask any more questions and planned to leave.
Zhuo Ping noticed the wound on Xie Shizhu's finger that was bandaged, and he immediately reacted.
He thought that since His Majesty had given him medicine last time, he should reciprocate this time.
Zhuo Ping immediately said, "Your Majesty, are you injured?"
Xie Shizhu paused, "Yeah."
Zhuo Ping quickly got up from the ground and diligently gave one of the medicine in the bottle to Xie Shizhu.
As it happens, there are two pills.
Zhuo Ping said flatteringly, "Your Majesty, this is medicine for internal use to treat wounds. You can take one pill and you will be well soon."
Xie Shizhu nodded and took the medicine Zhuo Ping gave her.
She pinched the pill and was about to put it to her lips when two voices stopped her.
The system was startled: [Host, don't eat! ]
The other voice was Xie Ji's.
He quickly grabbed Xie Shizhu's wrist and said in a low voice, "Don't eat it."
After saying that, Xie Ji snatched the pill from her fingers.
He crushed the pill with his slender fingers and put it to his nose to smell it.
Then, his face darkened and he stared at Zhuo Ping with sinister eyes.
The next second, Zhuo Ping was kicked to the ground by him.
Xie Ji's voice was very cold, and in this slightly hot climate, the temperature around him dropped a lot.
"Do you want to die?" The man looked down at Zhuo Ping, who was spitting blood from the corner of his lips, and exuded a dangerous aura.
Zhuo Ping felt excruciating pain in his internal organs. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and struggled to get up from the ground.
"Prince Yi, I am innocent, why should I die?"
He was dissatisfied with Xie Ji, but because the man's aura was too strong, he had to lower his head and speak.
Xie Shizhu quickly asked the system: "What's going on?"
The system wiped the sweat from its forehead: [Host, if you take this pill, you're really finished.]
Because Xie Shizhu was not very wary of Zhuo Ping, he never thought that Zhuo Ping would harm him.
Xie Ji said, "This pill is full of poison. If you take it, you will die within an hour. Do you think you should die?"
Zhuo Ping's pupils shrank, his face filled with disbelief: "Impossible, this is Master..."
Zhuo Ping quickly shut his mouth halfway through his words, still not believing it was poison.
Xie Ji glanced at him and saw a mouse popping out from the corner. He quickly grabbed the mouse and stuffed the medicine into its mouth.
The next second, the mouse twitched all over and soon died.
The system witnessed everything and complained: [Mouse: I didn't mess with any of you, did I?]
Zhuo Ping looked at the rat foaming at the mouth, and he froze in place. His legs went limp, and he collapsed to the ground.
He muttered to himself in disbelief: "Impossible, impossible..."
Xie Shizhu discovered that Zhuo Ping didn't know it was poison, and soon figured out the reason.
Was this medicine given by Zhong Changyao?
Then, he completely believed that Zhuo Ping had betrayed him, so he wanted to kill Zhuo Ping.
When Xie Ji was about to kill Zhuo Ping directly, Xie Shizhu hurriedly stopped him: "In my opinion, he doesn't know anything either, so let him go."
The man's eyes darkened and he taunted, "You are so kind."
After saying this, Xie Ji left Xie Shizhu and went to the study room alone.
Xie Ji was angry.
She would spare an insignificant man if he wanted to harm her.
