The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
45. Pei Zhang Xi Regretted His Speech
As predicted by the healer, Pei Zhang Xi had a fever almost overnight which made everyone panic. Lu Jing Yu was also worried about Pei Zhang Xi's condition, he had Xiao Bei several times to ask Pei Zhang Xi's condition to the healer. Lu Jing Yu actually wanted to see Pei Zhang Xi, but as the night began to dissolve and Pei Zhang Xi started to get a fever, he himself also felt unwell. After leaving the room earlier this afternoon, Lu Jing Yu went to Pei Zhang Xi's study.
Pei Zhang Xi had also tried to call Lu Jing Yu to take care of her, but the ailing Lu Jing Yu could not come. Pei Zhang Xi thought Lu Jing Yu had not come because he was angry with her after she said something bad in the past. As he said first, Pei Zhang Xi did not expect there would be a day where he wanted Lu Jing Yu nearby. Right now what he felt was regret. He should never have said that.
Xiao Bei suggested calling the healer to check. But Lu Jing Yu refused as there were only four main healers in the military camp and there were currently many wounded soldiers who still needed them. Moreover, Pei Zhang Xi was also in a condition that still required the supervision of a healer, so Lu Jing Yu did not want to trouble others. Other than Xiao Bei, no one knew that Lu Jing Yu was also sick.
"How is His Majesty doing at this time?" Lu Jing Yu immediately asked as Xiao Bei walked into the room.
"His Majesty's Fever has been successfully handed down by the Empress. The physician also said that His Majesty's condition was stable."
"That's great. Go rest now. It's almost morning."
"Can I call a healer now?"
"no need. I'm feeling better now."
"Alright Empress, the servant will come out. The empress also has to go for a break."
"Hem."
The next day, Inside the camp was still unstable due to Pei Zhang Xi being injured. But the news of their victory had already reached the ears of the Emperor. Besides sending messages to the Eastern Chu kingdom. Mo Han also sent a message to the Emperor.
Everyone in the Shao empire rejoiced over this victory. The border wars have taken a lot of casualties. Many nearby villages have also been displaced to safer places.
Likewise, Eastern Chu Emperor also received the news of General Mu's army's defeat in shock. All this time the army led by General Mu had never lost even once. But after seeing the evidence of the rebellion plan by General Mu Ru Ge, the Eastern Chu Emperor did not look surprised. The emperor shook his head. The next day, Emperor Eastern Chu used the morning trial to discuss the matter.
"Zhen will fully investigate this matter. Anyone who conspires with General Mu will be punished according to the rules of the kingdom." The Eastern Chu Emperor looked at all the ministers in front of him with emotion. Some of his ministers conspired against him.
"Your Majesty, it seems that Your Majesty has taken a decision too soon. It could be that this news was used by the opponents to free them from the mistake of killing General Mu. It also breaks our strength. I advise you not to take this news for granted without investigating it first."
"Everybody here knows what's been going on lately. Attack after attack was launched on the surrounding kingdoms to expand the territory. And all this time we always keep our profile that loves peace. And this series of attacks was nothing but to create a bad image of this empire." The gaze of Emperor Eastern Chu's eyes scanned the entire hall sharply. All the ministers who were allies of General Mu clenched their hands to maintain calm. Their backs were soaked in cold sweat.
As long as the current Emperor was in office until now, the Eastern Chu kingdom had never begun with anything. This calmness made the surrounding kingdoms consider them no threat and some others consider them to be easily oppressed kingdoms. But every time they were challenged by war, it was Eastern Chu who would win.
It was then that some ministers began to regard their Emperor as incompetent. Because with their invincible military might, they could have attacked and captured other imperial territories.
It was at that moment that General Mu appeared who had an ordinary background but possessed extraordinary abilities. Starting off by becoming an ordinary soldier, Mu Ru Ge managed to become a general who had hundreds of thousands of troops in his hands. General Mu saw the opportunity that those foolish ministers gave him. With his connections, he found ministers that he could use as stepping stones for him to reach the highest throne. An Emperor.
"Have I not warned you before? But what are you saying right now? Uncle just calm down. This time Pei Zhang Xi will not survive. Butwhat? It is not that he is without he even managed to defeat the enemy and get the results of a lot of war confiscation. His Majesty even praised him throughout the trial this morning. It should have been you who accepted it if you had listened to uncle back then." Xing Lang looked at the two people in front of him mockingly. Pei Zhong Min and Xing Ruo could not say anything to defend themselves.
"Already uncle. There is no point in discussing a passing problem. If uncle keeps bringing it up, my head will break for a long time." Pei Zhong Min had been feeling annoyed since yesterday. At the moment, he also continues to defeat him.
"If you still act slow like this, your head will also be gone for a long time you know?"
"Sister, please don't say it like that I admit this time Zhong Min was indeed wrong for taking Pei Zhang Xi too lightly. But big brother can be sure my Zhong Min will not repeat the same mistake again." Xing Rong loved Pei Zhong Min very much. So he couldn't bear it if someone scolded his son. Even though it was his own brother.
"It's also because it's my fault that he's always spoiling her so much that he can't think seriously." Xing Rong held Xing Lang's hand.
"This is all your fault. Our family did a lot to get you into the harem and make you a concubine of honor. But what do you give to our family? Your son is unreliable. Sigh! The Xing family has really lost raising you all along."
"Enough uncle! Besides raising my mother, what did you do for her so you always used my mother like this!" Pei Zhong Min kicked the table. Making the two elders beside him surprised.
"Zong Min, you can't say that to your harvester. Let's apologize immediately." Xing Rong persuaded Pei Zhong Min. Xing Lang snorted in annoyance. Although Pei Zona Min's status was higher than her, she was still his nephew as well who had to obey him.
"No ma'am. The Xing Family had already asked for too much. Do they think seizing the crown prince position is as easy as bribing a few people to get the mother to rise to be a concubine of honor? If they can, now I want the throne. Are they willing? If not, wait and see." Pei Zhong Min flicked his arm as he exited Xing Rong's room furiously.
"Sister, I hope you don't enter into the heart of what Zhong Min said earlier. He was young and his emotions were often unstable."
"I was wrong. Why do I do so many things? Can't he do it himself? Sigh! I'm going home. There's no point in me being here anymore. Better to raise a grateful child. In the meantime don't see me." Xing Lang was also furious. He also left Xing Rong's room after snorting in annoyance.
"So be careful when you get home. Then I will ask Zhong Min to come apologize to Big Brother later." Xing Rong couldn't do anything. Both sides are important to him.
Although she was a concubine of honor, she did not obtain the Emperor's standard love. The title that was maintained until this point also needed the help of the Xing family by spending a lot of money. If her Xing family doesn't may help her, don't know until when this title can be maintained.
On the other side was the son he relied on. If her son succeeds in becoming the Crown Prince and becoming the future Emperor, she will be the queen mother. Later in his old age did not need to think about the fierce competition in the harem anymore.
