This morning, as soon as the court session ended, the Emperor withdrew the soldiers from the gate of Yelü Yanyun Lihua Terrace. After observing for more than two months, there were naturally no problems.
The main reason is that war is imminent, and the envoy from the Northern Frontier will arrive soon. If he discovers that the Great Qi Kingdom is mistreating the Northern Frontier princess, their king will likely have something to say, and might even use this as a pretext to incite the people to join the battle.
The hunters of the North are no ordinary hunters; a skilled hunter can be even more ferocious than a general.
After all, generals are fighting against people!
The hunter was facing a pack of ferocious beasts, including lions, tigers, and leopards.
Qiao Siyu was overjoyed when she heard about this, and then she went to Fulu Private Key.
"Please sit down, please sit down. My brother brought these rare red fruits from the Southern Frontier. He was just saying he wanted to send some to you!" Fu Lu Si Yue warmly greeted Qiao Si Yu.
The two had been in Yongshou Palace for quite some time, naturally taking care of each other, and their feelings for each other were very deep.
"Thank you, sister!" Qiao Siyu didn't stand on ceremony and picked it up directly, starting to savor it carefully. "As expected, the Southern Frontier is rich in delicate fruits, and even the beauties are delicate and charming."
"Your Highness, are you referring to that princess from Southern Xinjiang?" Fu Lu Si Yue naturally understood and asked in a sarcastic tone.
"The people of the North are indeed fierce. Look at the two princesses from the Southern Frontier and the Northern Frontier in our palace, their personalities are so different. I have never heard anything about the Southern Frontier princess. I only heard from the servants that Consort Jieyu stays at Suhua Terrace every day."
Fu Lusi shook his head. How could Qiao Siyu understand anything about national hatred? She grew up on the battlefield, so naturally she knew that the Southern Border Princess's country had been destroyed. What other thoughts could she possibly have?
"Why have you been talking about the Southern Border Princess all day? Have you discovered some gossip about her?"
Qiao Siyu quickly put down the food in her hand and stared blankly at Fu Lu's private key. She found that she was not affected at all. Could it be that Zi Ling did not come to her?
That's impossible! I clearly saw it myself; those were clearly people from Nguyen and Mu's palace.
"Didn't you hear the news here?" Qiao Siyu couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"What news?" Fu Lu Siyue looked at Qiao Siyu with a gossipy expression, wondering if she had missed something in the harem again.
She still vividly remembered the last time she saw Jiang Meiren, fearing that she was in trouble. It had been so long since she had ever secretly gone to the Imperial Garden by herself.
"They say Consort Mu captured an assassin last night. Are you really unaware, or are you pretending not to know?"
Fu Lu Si Yue smiled knowingly and said, "I thought it was something serious. Zi Ling came to inform me early this morning. It was just an assassin. Consort Mu wasn't even hurt. Why not just hand him over to the Censorate? Why go through all that trouble?"
Looking at Fu Lu Si Yue's expression, Qiao Si Yu realized that among those in the same palace, she was the only one who knew the most about this gossip. Clearly, Fu Lu Si Yue was still unaware of the matter.
"Then why do you think they told us about this palace so quickly?" Qiao Siyu immediately became mysterious and whispered in Fu Lu Siyue's ear.
Based on Fu Lu's private key's thinking, she immediately deduced, "Could it be an assassin from Chu Yue's side? Consort Mu must be reminding you and me!"
"Um... no, oh dear, you probably won't guess, I'll just tell you straight, a few days ago I was at the back gate of our Yongshou Palace..." Qiao Siyu leaned close to her ear and began to tell her everything she had seen.
Fu Lu Si Yue nodded repeatedly, “So that’s how it is. No wonder. It’s been almost half a month. I’ve noticed that she hasn’t come out at all. She’s been staying in her North Courtyard. And when I went to see her a few days ago, she, who never uses her status to intimidate others, actually sent Xing’er to tell me that Consort Zhao was asleep and not receiving guests. I was completely baffled at the time.”
Qiao Siyu is a sensible person. She doesn't know if the assassin has really been caught, but as long as the news is released, Xiyun will definitely go to rescue him.
"Oh dear, although these hawthorns are sweet, their outer shells have a lot of soft, prickly thorns. If you peel them open along these thorns, it's fine, but if you do it the other way around, you won't get to eat the sweet hawthorns; instead, you'll end up all bruised and battered."
Qiao Siyu held the red fruit in her hand, talking to herself. Fu Lusi didn't quite understand, so he summoned a servant to peel it for Qiao Siyu.
"No need. We're sisters. I'll go back and rest, and quietly wait for good news."
Geng Yulin felt uneasy ever since he learned that Yelü Yanyun had been released.
That evening, Geng Yulin specially summoned all the concubines to his Jiayu Palace the next morning for a chat, saying that he wanted to hear everyone's opinions at the spring banquet.
Of course, this also includes the two high-ranking Consort Xiyun, as well as Consort Ruan and Consort Mumu!
The medicine that Liu Changfeng brought was effective. In just a few days, Xi Yun's face seemed to have almost recovered. This morning, Xing'er carefully applied makeup to her face, and unless you looked closely, you could no longer see the pits and bumps on her face.
Xi Yun knew that she had been hesitating all night, and there was still no news from Yu Jing Palace. She had tried the whistle last night, but it hadn't summoned Young Master Liu, which made her a little worried.
Little did she know that Liu Changfeng had already completed the task for Yelü Yanyun. That evening, everyone was drinking together, and Xu Yunchuan specifically said that he wanted to promote him. In reality, he had received a message that he was determined to get Liu Changfeng drunk tonight. After drinking cup after cup of strong Western Region liquor, Liu Changfeng would probably sleep until the end of the night.
