Chapter 108 Who Kicked Her?
Emperor Wu Su was surprised that someone would dare to take such a direct and murderous approach.
If you want to obtain a high position that everyone envies, you must bear the corresponding risks. This is true for everyone in the Phoenix Palace.
A big tree attracts the wind, which is enough to make people eager to make a move.
The Palace of Imperial Concubine Wei was too closely connected with the previous dynasty. The more "honor and favor" Concubine Wei received, the more jealousy and hatred she had to endure behind the scenes.
However, most of the noble families were afraid of Wei Ting and did not dare to go too far. Besides, Wei Liru was extremely intelligent and would not be easily fooled.
It seems that these people are really pushed into a corner.
Wei Liru was lucky this time. If Ji Qingwu and Qingyun had not accidentally blocked the disaster for her, she would have been injured at best, or even killed.
When Emperor Wu Su thought of this, the corners of his mouth sank.
Ji Qingwu appeared and accurately identified the traces of the beast. She was the biggest variable in this matter.
If Concubine Wei had been present when Qingyun fell off his horse and fell off a cliff today, she would definitely not have risked rescuing him. Just like the last time when Yuan Heng fell into the water, Concubine Wei chose to protect herself.
However, this is also the way for smart people to live a peaceful life in the palace.
But even someone like Concubine Wei could barely protect herself in the palace.
If Ji Qingwu, who is so soft and kindhearted, had entered the palace, he would have been eaten by a group of jackals, tigers and leopards until not even a bone would be left.
Emperor Wu Su looked at the flickering candlelight and pinched his brows.
In fact, he hadn't figured out where to put Ji Qingwu. If he put him somewhere else, he wouldn't feel at ease and worried about him, but if he really kept him by his side, he would be more worried.
The worry is that she doesn't have the ability to protect herself in the palace.
Relying on others for protection all the time is not a long-term solution. He will get tired and will be unable to cope with everything. He needs her to come to him step by step and willingly.
Climbing to a high position is like being on the top of a mountain. Although the scenery is beautiful, it is surrounded by clouds and fog, making it difficult for you to see the good or bad of the people around you. You need a pair of eyes that can pierce the fog.
This is also the reason why Emperor Wu Su was deeply impressed by Ji Qingwu’s pure eyes.
The imperial power may appear to be a magnificent country on the surface, but behind the scenes it is a pile of bones and numerous calculations.
The person next to you is not always trustworthy.
Ji Qingwu is not "smart" enough, but it is precisely this "lack of intelligence" that makes people feel at ease.
But now...it's unknown who she has in her heart.
But if you force her to stay by your side.
As soon as Emperor Wu Su thought about it, he felt a headache.
If the emperor's intentions were understood by others, Ji Qingwu would not have to do anything, the Phoenix Palace would be overwhelmed by jealousy.
As for the Queen Mother, we have to do some small things.
Not only in the palace, but also in the whole world, Xi Jin, who is eyeing the situation covetously, might send spies to take action.
The way we get along now...is also a way without a perfect plan.
Emperor Wu Su's brows turned cold. Even if she had someone in her heart, he would expel her sooner or later!
During this period of time when she has completely let go of the person in her heart, he still needs to make a thorough plan for what will happen next, so there is no rush and he still has patience.
Li Yuzong came in from outside the tent and whispered, "Your Majesty, the eldest princess and her husband want to see you."
Emperor Wu Su was not surprised that the princess would come, and said, "Announce her."
When Princess Huachang and others entered the main tent, Emperor Wu Su's eyes swept across the green figure and became warmer.
He raised his hand and said, "No need to be polite, sit down."
The military book that Emperor Wu Su had been reading had been put away, and only the inkstone, writing brush and ink remained on the long desk.
There is also a long table for meetings in the tent.
Ji Qingwu followed Princess Huachang quietly, and when she sat down, he stood near her.
There was a clear flash of displeasure in Emperor Wu Su's eyes, and Yuchi Lianping said with a look: "Miss Ji, come over here and change seats with me."
Ji Qingwu obediently moved to stand next to the emperor.
Emperor Wu Su looked down at the rosewood tabletop and asked, "Have you gotten into trouble again?"
The emperor's question made Ji Qingwu unsure, and she replied doubtfully, "No, I don't think so."
"Then why don't you sit down when you are punished to stand? My neck is sore just from watching you."
Ji Qingwu blinked his eyes and said nothing. He was clearly looking at the table, not at her.
She moved the chair away and sat down lightly.
Princess Huachang had a solemn expression on her face and said calmly, "Your Majesty, I heard that the wild beast we hunted today ran into the women's hunting area. Did something serious happen?"
Yuchi Lianping looked at her in surprise.
The eldest princess never asks about state affairs. A more accurate statement would be that she is indifferent to everything. But why is she bringing this up today?
No matter how curious you are, you shouldn't ask the emperor so directly.
The emperor looked at her and said, "I have sent General Yuchi to solve the problem."
The implication was that he didn't want to talk much to her, and if she wanted to know something, she could go back and ask her husband.
Princess Huachang said sternly, "My husband will be leaving for the northern border today. He is reckless and should not be involved in dangerous matters such as fighting wild beasts."
Dare to teach the emperor how to act?
Yuchi Lianping kicked Princess Huachang's feet under the table.
He wanted her to stop talking nonsense, otherwise His Majesty would blame her. Since she was his sister, nothing would happen, but what if the Emperor took his anger out on her and immediately sent her to the northern military camp?
Princess Huachang remained calm.
But Ji Qingwu's eyes suddenly widened.
She felt a pain in her foot.
Who kicked her? !
Is it the prince consort opposite, the Princess Huachang, or the emperor on the left?
After much thought, Ji Qingwu felt that Emperor Wu Su was the most suspicious. After all, he was the only one who liked to play tricks on her like this.
She glanced at the person on her left.
There was a hint of reproach in her eyes, and Emperor Wu Su raised his eyebrows. His temper was about to rise, but he suppressed it with this look.
Although Yuchi Lianping didn't know that he kicked the wrong person, the result was the same.
The emperor did not blame him and looked normal. Yuchi Lianping breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good. I don't have to pack my bags tonight."
The atmosphere in the tent was somewhat stagnant.
Li Yuzong cleverly took out a set of seasonal blue and white cups with colorful floral patterns from a wooden box. June was the month for lotus flowers, so he took out a few and placed them on the table, then poured the emperor a cup of tea.
The aroma of tea is everywhere and the mist is floating.
Emperor Wu Su placed his fingers on the tea bowl and said in a rather friendly tone, "Royal sister, have you come here specially to speak up for General Yuchi?"
Princess Huachang felt upset when she thought of the wound on Yuchi Lianping's thigh.
She said, "Your Majesty, there are many talented people available before you. You don't have to force my husband to go. Besides, he will be leaving for the northern border today. The swords on the battlefield are merciless, and it is even more dangerous to go into battle injured. Your Majesty has fought on the battlefield before, so you should understand this principle."
Yuchi Lianping was surprised in his heart. What was wrong with Princess Huachang? Did she come here today specifically to educate the emperor?
Emperor Wu Su was a domineering person who had his way with the emperor, and as his elder sister, she knew this, so that's why she repeatedly disobeyed the emperor.
He stretched his feet out from under the table again.
