The capital of the Ming Dynasty, outside the Imperial Palace.

Hu Zongxian knelt outside the palace gate, for a day and a night, and was not summoned by Emperor Jiajing.

Prince Wanli, who was seriously injured and dying, had already been sent to the Tai Hospital.

Then, the injury took a slight turn for the better, and he was sent to Qin Tianjian and handed over to the national teacher Lan Daoxing.

Whether Prince Wanli is alive or dead, Hu Zongxian does not know.

But he knew that Yunzhou was defeated for the second time, and the prince personally promised to cede Yunzhou City, which was an unprecedented shame since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, and Emperor Jiajing would be furious!

However, the cession of Yunzhou was promised by the prince, and it was impossible to immediately march to the enemy country.

It must be treated coldly for a few years, and then find another excuse, and when the division is famous, it is not too late to send troops again.

Suddenly!

A eunuch held the holy decree in his hand, followed by the guard of honor who passed the decree, and walked quickly to stand in front of Hu Zongxian!

Hu Zongxian took a deep breath and said silently in his heart: "Thunder, rain and dew are all Jun's grace. ”

But for some reason, Fan Li's evil smile actually appeared in his heart.

The wicked smile was fleeting, and it was the words he had said when he invited himself sincerely:

Brother Ruzhen, the younger brother sincerely invites, is the brother willing to work with the younger brother to create a great cause?

The tone is moving!

Emotional people!

It seems that as long as Hu Zongxian agrees, it is possible for Fan Li to return Yunzhou City!?

"Holy decree, Hu Zongxian listens to the decree."

"Hu Zongxian, the governor of the northern border, respectfully invites Sheng'an."

Hu Zongxian was already kneeling, so he pressed his body lower to show his loyalty to His Majesty Jiajing.

The eunuch unfolded the yellow silk and glanced at Hu Zongxian out of the corner of his eye.

His gaze was cold, as if he was looking at a dead man.

"The one who is a member of the constitution, the junior minister of this department, is unusually selected and ranked in the feudal territory."

"How dare you not think of reporting the grace of heaven and the people of An?"

"Er has lived in Yunzhou for a long time, and his armaments have been slack, and his training has been slack, resulting in a great defeat and a loss of troops."

"Now, the prince is seriously injured, Yunzhou has changed hands, and the army has been lost, and he still tries to sophistry in front of the king, blinding the saint, how is it different from beasts and beasts?"

"Immediately take Hu Zongxian and hand it over to the judge for trial and conviction, please here!"

The eunuch finished reciting the holy decree and waved his hand to the Ouchi guard beside him.

"Take it!"

……

…………

Fan Li led the army back to China.

Hearing the news of Yunzhou's victory and Fan Li's triumph, Xiang Chong directly said that he was sick and quit.

All military, political and civil affairs of the Chu State were handled in the Jiangshan Pavilion of the Fan Mansion.

Fan Li seemed to be deliberate, he simply ordered someone to open the door of the mansion and allow the court officials who performed every day to enter and leave the Fan Mansion freely, just by making a report outside the Jiangshan Pavilion.

He deliberately disgusted Xiang Chong again.

Not long ago, Xiang Chong publicly declared that he had worshiped Hanyue, the sword lord of the Sanskrit Pure Land, as his stepmother.

Fan Li invited Han Yue to stay in Jiangshan Pavilion and accompany him to 'sit in the court'.

The question is, how does Hanyue know about government affairs?

So, the only thing she could do was to pour water and spread paper for Fan Li.

"Cold moon, I'm thirsty, please boil a pot before the rain."

"Okay, you wait a minute."

"Hanyue, I don't have time to eat, can you just cook me something to eat?"

"Is noodle soup OK? I'm just going to do this. ”

After the cold moon was busy, she didn't realize that there was anything wrong, and even felt more fulfilled than ever.

She even forgot about one small problem.

Fan Li is no longer in the Qi Refining Realm, he has cultivated to the Golden Pill, and he has already been able to open the valley, how can he be hungry?

But this scene, in the eyes of the courtiers of the Great Chu Wenwu who entered the cabinet, was a completely different kind of information.

What about Your Majesty's stepmother?

Still not like this to serve our Jin Gong?

"I heard that she is still a master of the Mahayana realm!"

"I've heard about it too, it seems to be the number one female sword cultivator in the world?"

"Lord Zhang, do you say that the Holy Lord of the Cold Moon is close to His Majesty, or is it with our Jin Gongpa?"

"Master Li said this, you are not blind, don't you know how to read it?"

"Uh...... Yes, yes, yes, I can see it, I can see it, thank you Lord Zhang for reminding me! ”

When the news reached the Great Chu Palace, Xiang Chong trembled.

Originally, he heard that Han Yue had also returned to Pengcheng, and he couldn't wait to see this cheap stepmother and ask her when she would be in a better mood to assassinate Fan Li.

Unexpectedly, Han Yue was actually waiting for Fan Li?

Women, how unreliable are they!?

"Grandpa Chen, what should I do??? Xiang Chong said nervously.

What can the old eunuch do?

He had to comfort him indiscriminately, saying something about His Majesty's destiny and the blessing of the stars.

At this time, Xiao Huangmen came to report: "The Holy Lord of the Cold Moon has returned to the palace!" ”

When Xiang Chong heard this, he subconsciously blurted out: "This slut still has the face to come back!?" ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw the Cold Moon Holy Lord walking into the palace.

Although Han Yue had been by Fan Li's side for a whole day, as soon as she separated, she began to miss her in her heart.

She originally had excellent hearing, but because of distraction, she didn't hear Xiang Chong scolding herself.

"What did Your Majesty say?" Han Yue raised her eyes and saw Xiang Chong, so she asked casually.

I said...... Uh, Mother, are you back? ”

Xiang Chong just wanted to scold again, but was quietly stepped on by Gonggong Chen.

He came back to his senses and hurriedly put on a smiling face.

"Hmm."

Cold Moon nodded.

"Come back for a night, and I'll go to Jiangshan Pavilion tomorrow."

Xiang Chong's face stiffened, and he said in his heart What kind of ecstasy soup did Fan Li pour into this woman?!

"Mother."

"I heard you spent a whole day in the Fan Mansion?"

"What the hell is going on?"

It's okay not to ask.

Xiang Chong asked, and it actually evoked the good memories of the cold moon.

Her cheeks were slightly red and said, "Fan Li asked me to help him deal with the government affairs, speaking of which, the political affairs of a country are so complicated?" taxation, agriculture, education, disaster relief, water conservancy, ...... There are so many that I can't even remember. ”

Xiang Chong was dumbfounded, and before he could answer, Han Yue said again: "Fortunately, Fan Li is here, he is really a good hand at governing the country." Only when there is him in Chu can he govern it in an orderly manner......"

Suddenly, Hanyue realizes that she has lost her words.

In front of Xiang Chong, can he be happy to be such a traitor?

"Your Majesty, I mean ......"

Helplessly, Hanyue is not good at lying at all.

She wanted to make up a lie so that each other could get off the table, but she didn't know how to explain it for a long time.

Xiang Chong's face turned the color of pig liver, and finally the corners of his mouth trembled: "No, it's okay, mother doesn't have to mind." ”

Seeing this, Hanyue smiled with relief.

This kid is quite sensible?

"Okay, I'm tired, let's rest first. I heard that Your Majesty is sick, so let's rest early. ”

Hanyue returned to her residence, and a maidservant waited for a long time.

"Is there any news from the eldest sister?" Hanyue smiled.

Every Holy Lord who goes out has such a handmaid by his side, who acts as a liaison between the Holy Lord and the Pure Land.

When he was in Chang'an, Diao Chan was like this.

Now, the same is true of the cold moon.

Originally, it was a casual question, after all, in Hanyue's opinion, since the eldest sister successfully opened the country, and hundreds of thousands of new female dependents defected, everything should be smooth.

Unexpectedly, the maidservant shook her head and said, "Your Majesty has sent a message, please return to the court as soon as possible...... Attend the funeral of the Lord of Destiny......"

Hanyue only felt the explosion of his brain!

Diao Chan, dead?!
