Chapter 144 (Additional chapters will be added when the total number of votes reaches 400)
Only after walking out of the palace did Yueli's body soften.
Xie Lixing quickly supported Yueli, who was about to fall, and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I'm a little scared. I was a little close to death just now."
Yueli held Xie Lixing's hand and climbed onto his back. "I'm so tired. My butt hurts, my arms hurt, my whole body hurts. I'm exhausted both physically and mentally..."
After the incident was over, Yueli began to cry to Xie Lixing.
Xie Lixing carried her on his back according to her posture. When he thought of how she rode a horse just now, he wanted to rub his temples.
He was really scared to death by her just now!
"Don't do such dangerous things in the future. I'm not important..."
“You are important!”
Before Xie Lixing could finish, Yueli immediately grabbed him by the throat and threatened him viciously, "If you dare to say something like that again, I'll strangle you to death!"
Xie Lixing was not angry even though he was being choked.
"Yeah." It's better to strangle him to death than for her to run away with someone else.
He couldn't bear to hear her elope with someone else.
Yueli knew that he couldn't bear to hear it, so she didn't dare to say it. She was afraid that Xie Lixing would turn evil after she said it.
The two walked back, and many people saw Xie Lixing carrying Yueli home. Everyone only heard it from others, and knew that Xie Lixing doted on his wife to no end.
Unexpectedly, this thing is actually true.
Xie Lixing had his men notify the Prime Minister about the execution, and the two of them left the palace and headed straight for the prince's mansion.
Imperial Palace
Chen Chaolu was sitting in the palace, lying down to rest.
A palace maid beside him lowered her head, reporting to Chen Chaolu about Xie Lixing and Yueli's recent actions in the palace. "Your Majesty, the Regent Princess and the Regent Prince had a big fight in the Imperial Study and have already left."
Chen Chaolu nodded lazily.
"Well, has Princess Weijia been in contact with that Miao girl in the past two days?"
When Chen Chaolu said this, she couldn't help but reveal jealousy in her tone, as if she was jealous that Miao Nu had snatched Wei Jia away from her.
The palace maid nodded her head.
"Hmph! Get down!"
Chen Chaolu turned over in anger.
The palace maid looked up at Chen Chaolu's back before slowly leaving Chen Chaolu's bedroom.
After the palace maid left, Chen Chaolu turned around with a gloomy face.
She was careless and allowed Weijia's people to infiltrate her palace. Now she is somewhat passive, but -
She touched her belly.
Everything has to wait until the child is born. This child is very important and she can't let anything happen to him.
Thinking, Chen Chaolu looked in the direction of Weijia's residence, his eyes were heavy, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.
That Miao girl seems to have something wrong with her. She actually keeps in touch with that Miao girl. What does she want to do?
Do you want to attack her?
Or, does Weijia have other intentions?
Chen Chaolu entered the palace late, but she was not without her own people. The prime minister gave two of the people he had placed in the palace to Chen Chaolu, asking her to protect herself.
Therefore, Chen Chaolu has been investigating what Weijia and Miao Nu are plotting these days.
Similarly, she also spread the news out of the palace and asked the prime minister to help investigate.
Just as she was thinking, a voice came from outside, "Is your queen resting?"
"Replying to Princess, yes."
At this moment, a voice came from outside the door. As someone who was "genuinely" on good terms with Wei Jia, Chen Chaolu naturally hurriedly said, "But Wei Jia is here? Let Wei Jia in quickly."
The two began a new round of conversation, each with their own ulterior motives.
Wei Jia and Chen Chaolu's actions did not escape the emperor's eyes. He was very unhappy with Yue Li's behavior today.
Just when I was about to find something small to vent my anger, I heard from my people that Wei Jia had gone to see Chen Chaolu again.
"Hasn't she been getting close to a Miao girl recently?"
The emperor stared at the person kneeling on the ground, his expression unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.
The person kneeling not far away answered, "Yes, the Miao girl that Princess Weijia knows seems to be very interested in the Regent. She thinks the Regent looks exactly like her, and she wants to make him into a puppet just for her."
They say it's a puppet, but in fact they just want the regent's face.
The people who were doing the research got goose bumps when they heard what the other party said.
Hearing that Miao Nu was interested in Xie Lixing, the emperor's face also showed a hint of amusement. "Have you investigated Miao Nu's identity?"
"Your Majesty, we have thoroughly investigated and found that she is the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang. She has come here to stir up trouble in the struggle for power among our princes."
The people of Miaojiang have always been eyeing their dynasty covetously, and the emperor has long been accustomed to it.
Before he ascended the throne, a "holy lady" from Miaojiang came and tried to confuse his brothers and him, and then—
The person who saw through the other party took this seat.
"Do you know which prince she has contacted?" The emperor's voice sounded a little gloomy.
“Not yet.”
"Okay, go down."
After the secret guards left, the emperor turned around and said to the corner of the imperial study: "Come out."
The prince, dressed in a dragon robe, walked out from the corner.
He walked respectfully before the emperor and said to him, "Father, you see, I was right, wasn't I? Weijia doesn't want to be a princess, she wants to be a prince." She has ideas about the throne.
The emperor still did not agree with the prince's words.
"She's just contacting Miao Nu, don't make a fuss."
Seeing that he couldn't convince the emperor, the prince simply stopped talking and stood up to say goodbye.
*
After Yueli and Xie Lixing returned home, Xie Lixing felt that someone was following him. When he turned around, he saw a woman who did not look like someone from the Daliang Dynasty standing not far away, looking at him with her arms folded.
He frowned and looked away.
Yueli also noticed this strange woman. Originally, she thought she was just someone who admired Xie Lixing's face.
As a result, the barrage told her that this person was the Holy Maiden of Miaojiang!
[Fake Saint, the real toast appears! ]
[I never understood why Tusi came to the capital dressed as a saint?]
[She's here to muddy the waters. And if she says she's the chieftain, wouldn't that reveal her true purpose?]
[Can't the Saint Lady do that? ]
[You know, saints have always been obsessed with love...]
[Every man thinks that the saint has never seen the world and is easy to deceive, so he will disguise himself to make the saint fall in love with him and use him for his own benefit]
[This is what Liu Yuanzhou seems to have done]
Yueli felt that every time Liu Yuanzhou was mentioned in the barrage, she would be irritated.
Why does he always do bad things?
Can't you just do something that will be praised?
Yueli's gaze fell on the Miao chieftain again. Their eyes met. For some reason, Yueli felt that the look in Miao chieftain's eyes was very dangerous.
It's the feeling of being stared at by a wolf.
The other party is targeting her and she has to thank him for the gift?
Or, does she like Xie Lixing's face, think she is in the way, and is planning to attack her?
Yueli hugged Xie Lixing's neck tightly and whispered in his ear, "Let's stay away from this girl from now on. I think she's very dangerous."
Xie Lixing, whose neck was strangled and he couldn't make a sound, nodded with difficulty.
[He loves me so much, he wasn't even angry even when he was almost strangled to death! ]
