"Your eldest uncle has already been assassinated. How can you protect us?" the Duke of Qin asked angrily.
Lu Beimo turned to look at him and said in a deep voice, "Grandpa, it was indeed royal assassins who tried to assassinate my uncle, but they may not have been sent by Father. I'm still investigating this matter. Besides, didn't I already rescue my uncle?"
"Those chivalrous heroes, were they arranged by you?" Qin Jianye asked, his face filled with shock.
A hint of surprise flashed across the Duke of Qin's eyes.
They were still wondering why they had just happened to run into a group of wandering knights who had rescued Qin Jianzheng.
If it weren't for those wandering knights, Qin Jianzheng would probably have been killed by the time they arrived.
It wasn't that their people arrived in time; rather, someone helped them.
But these wandering knights left after saving people, saying they had just happened to be traveling around.
Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Mo'er's person.
“But since he has the intention to get rid of us, your people can protect us once, but not twice, three times, ten times, or a hundred times! One day, our Qin family will be completely and utterly destroyed by that dog emperor!”
After his initial surprise, the Duke of Qin was still filled with anger: "Mo'er, you can even gather the power of the martial world. You are so powerful, you should bear the responsibilities you should bear! This country belongs to the Qin family. I may not need the master of this country to be surnamed Qin, but I need him to be of the Qin family bloodline!"
"Only you!" The Duke of Qin stood up, pointed at him, his eyes filled with determination and passion: "Only you are qualified to be emperor! If you do not, then my Qin family will fight the Emperor of Dongling to the death!"
Lu Beimo pursed his thin lips and remained silent.
Behind them, Consort Yu's voice was icy cold: "Fine, we'll fight this dog of an emperor to the death!"
……
That night, Chu Yueli tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep, until dawn before finally managing to fall asleep.
But she didn't sleep for long; as soon as it was light, she woke up again.
After waking up, I quickly tidied myself up and went out.
Zisu was surprised that she got up so early: "Miss, is there something you need to do today?"
"No." Chu Yue felt inexplicably uneasy, looking at Zisu, hesitant to speak.
"Miss, what exactly do you want to say? Is there something you want to ask?" Zisu looked at her face; it was quite rare to see her mistress with such an expression.
Chu Yueli was indeed hesitant, but she didn't know what she was uneasy about.
She looked at Zisu: "Last night... no, this morning, did you hear any news?"
"What news?" Zisu blinked, seemingly not understanding.
Chu Yueli glared at her, "News from the palace!"
Zisu suddenly burst out laughing: "Haha, Miss, why don't you just say it directly, have you heard what the Emperor said?"
"You brat!" Chu Yueli glared at her.
Zisu smiled happily.
Last night, everyone knew that Prince Mo and Consort Yu had made an appointment to seek the Emperor's blessing for their marriage.
So it turns out that the young lady was so anxious because of this matter; Zisu had thought that the young lady wasn't in such a hurry.
"Miss, you usually act like you don't care much about Prince Mo? Turns out it was all an act!" Zisu couldn't help but tease.
Chu Yueli really wanted to give her a whack on the head, but she didn't deny it.
"He is indeed somewhat anxious, and I wonder how his talks with Consort Yu and the Emperor went."
Why did she toss and turn all night? Now that she thinks about it, she realizes that she has been waiting for him all along.
But why didn't he come?
