Previously, they didn't think much of the old emperor's incompetence, but Qi Yu gradually brainwashed them, and many Northern Wu generals actually switched sides to Qi Yu's side.
Qi Yu was all smiles, but as with happiness comes unhappiness.
The woman living in Fengqi Palace has been refusing his advances for a week with various excuses. First, she said she had her period and it was inconvenient for her to come near. Then she said she caught a cold. He couldn't even enter the house to see her!
Heaven knows that Xia Yixin was full of energy and even secretly ate ice cream when she had her period before. Besides, the timing is wrong. This is only the beginning of the month. She clearly didn't get her period until the end of the month!
But Qi Yu didn't want to expose her, and he vaguely felt that something had been wrong ever since they went to see the Northern Martial Iron Cavalry that day. Perhaps she was angry with him? Or...?

However, there is another group of people investigating as well. I think that person eventually sent the message to the palace."
There are now only two masters in the palace.
The answer is obvious.
Qi Yu's eyes darkened slightly. "You may leave now. Tomorrow's plan must not go wrong."
Thinking about tomorrow's plan, Qi Yu hesitated slightly, but then his resolve was replaced by determination. If he continued like this, he would only be a pawn. Moreover, it was time for him to break through the last barrier between them.
