Xue Zhiyi only smiled. "I guess His Majesty feels that after this marriage, the reconciliation between Dayong and Beidi will be achieved, and Duke Dingguo's troops at Yueling Pass can be gradually disbanded. He won't have to worry about the Ge family anymore, so he has the intention of flattering and killing them now."
As she spoke, she sighed softly, "Emperors are always so heartless. They can decide life and death with a single thought."
She looked at Huo Wuyou with a look of worry that she herself hadn't noticed: "You should take it easy. He is still quite confident in you now, but that's all for now."
Huo Wuyou just let out a soft "oh" and suddenly, he tilted his head and moved closer.
The face in front of him suddenly enlarged and became clear, and Xue Zhiyi's breathing stopped for a moment.
"Worried about me?" he whispered.
Seeing her stunned, Huo Wuyou tapped her head with his finger contentedly: "Don't worry, I know my limits."
Xue Zhiyi covered his forehead and turned his face away. Although he was a little annoyed, he did not deny it.
Every step that follows, including what they are planning, will be dangerous and thrilling.

Seeing her like this, Huo Wuyou felt warm in his heart, and he comforted her, "In the eyes of His Majesty, I have been irrelevant since I was a child, and there is no need for you to be wary of me. Otherwise, you would not have allowed me to be just a Junior Minister of the Dali Temple."
As he spoke, he pretended to be mysterious and asked Xue Zhiyi, "Since Tu Yuxian was exiled, there have been major changes in the Dali Temple. Who do you think the new Dali Temple Minister is?"
Xue Zhiyi's mind was finally distracted a little: "Who?"
"You've seen him." He said, "The Dali Temple Secretary, Yu Xing."
Hearing this, Xue Zhiyi nodded: "It makes sense."
It was not only because Yu Xing was an upright official, but also because Prince Gong and Prince Sheng, after a game of negotiation, finally chose someone who did not belong to the other camp to control the Dali Temple.
"Gu Shichong is still under house arrest, and Prince Cheng has not been able to take advantage of this opportunity to seize the Dali Temple." Xue Zhiyi couldn't help but say.
Huo Wuyou chuckled, "Prince Cheng has also sent people to the Dali Temple. There are two Shaoqings in the Dali Temple. The right Shaoqing is me, and the left Shaoqing is Prince Cheng's man."
"oh?"
"You know him too." The smile in Huo Wuyou's eyes faded a little, as if he was thinking of someone he disliked very much: "The new number one scholar, Jiang Xu."
