As soon as he got off the court, Emperor Rong Yu Wengang hurried to Hanxiang Pavilion to visit Hua Xiangjun, who was bedridden yesterday due to occasional cold.

Seeing that Hua Xiangjun's originally delicate face on the sickbed was already flushed with terrible flushes, obviously with a high fever, Yu Wengang couldn't help but feel distressed.

He snatched the freshly wrung out cold cloth towel from Cui'er, who was waiting on the side, and then carefully wiped the sweat from his forehead for Hua Xiangjun.

At this time, Hua Xiangjun finally slowly opened his eyes that had been closed, and said in a dumb voice: "Your Majesty...... Tomorrow is the time to worship the heavens, and I ...... I fell ill, and I really failed to live up to the Holy Hope......"

Yu Wengang hurriedly said with concern: "Xiangjun, don't worry too much! I will explain to the imperial grandmother about the matter of sacrificing to the sky, so I don't want you to go out of the palace to toss again, so as not to aggravate your condition." Your body is weak, don't say too much at the moment, try to save some energy. ”

Hua Xiangjun shook his head slightly, and continued to gasp: "No, Your Majesty, the matter of sacrificing to the heavens is not trivial. If you don't want to worship the sky, you have to think about it properly before you can ask for the Queen Mother's permission. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be more disputes!"

When Yu Wengang heard this, his thick eyebrows suddenly twisted, and he said in a rough voice: "Xiangjun, you are about to become my queen, no matter how domineering the imperial grandmother is, she can't force you to drag your sick body and go to the altar to blow the cold wind, right?!"

Hua Xiangjun closed his eyes and tried to gather some strength before he spoke again: "Your Majesty has misunderstood! I'm not talking about myself, but about Your Majesty, you can't participate in tomorrow's sacrifice." ”

Yu Wengang couldn't help but be stunned, and asked puzzledly: "Why is this? Sacrificing to heaven is a major event for the whole country, as the emperor of Darong, how can I shirk this division of the Son of Heaven at will?"

"Your Majesty, please think about it, the Queen Mother originally did not agree with the establishment of the queen within the year, but why did she suddenly change her mind and was in a hurry to summon the world when the sacrifice to the heavens was made, and Emperor Darong wanted to set up a new queen?"

After Hua Xiangjun's reminder, Yu Wengang couldn't help frowning and pondering.

Then, he suddenly woke up and said: "Xiangjun, do you think that the imperial grandmother is just using the queen as a guise, but in fact, she has other plans?"

Hua Xiangjun nodded and said, "Not bad." When the Queen Mother brought me into the palace, she originally wanted to use my hermit bloodline to realize her plan to occupy the abyss and completely conquer the herins.

However, since there were many differences of opinion between His Majesty and the Queen Mother, her plan to occupy Chongyuan was blocked, so she was not in a hurry to make me the queen, so that I would not have more opportunities to help Your Majesty and fight her enemies together.

Then it is not difficult to infer from this that since the Queen Mother has decided to announce the establishment of me as the queen when she sacrifices to the heavens tomorrow, this probably means that tomorrow will be the time when she will send troops to the abyss!"

Yu Wengang's complexion changed sharply, and he stomped his feet hatefully, and said: "I see! No wonder in the past few days, she has been letting people pester me with all kinds of trivial matters such as sacrificing to the heavens and establishing the queen, but behind her back, she is planning to send troops to the abyss!"

"If on the occasion of the sacrifice to heaven tomorrow, the Queen Mother and Her Majesty stand on the altar together, and announce to the people of the world that I will be the queen of Hua Xiangjun as Da Rong, and at the same time, Da Rong will immediately send troops to celebrate it. Faced with such a situation, how will Your Majesty respond?"

Being asked by Hua Xiangjun, Yu Wengang couldn't help but gasp, knowing that he was almost calculated by the ill-intentioned old woman!

Hua Xiangjun glanced at his ugly face, and then analyzed: "In the face of the cheers from the government and the opposition, Your Majesty can only acquiesce and cooperate with the Queen Mother to finish this scene of worshipping the sky." But all the consequences will be borne by His Majesty alone.

Your Majesty should know very well that the Queen Mother has not made all preparations for sending troops to the abyss this time. At least for this reason, there is still a huge shortage of grain and grass.

If everything is not as smooth as the Queen Mother expected, if the battle ahead is lost and blocked, and the supply of grain and grass is not available, or in this cold winter, the 100,000 Darong Erlang may be more than lucky!

And once this happens, the Queen Mother can completely blame all the blame on Her Majesty's insincerity in sacrificing to heaven, and it can even be said that I, the new queen of Darong, is already ominous, so I will incur God's curse. ”

The more Yu Wengang listened, the more frightened he became, and he believed that Hua Xiangjun was not alarmist. With the usual ruthless style of the Empress Dowager's ancestor, he would definitely do such things without hesitation.

At that time, he and Hua Xiangjun, His Majesty and Empress the Emperor of the Darong Kingdom, will become the scapegoats of the Queen Mother's army, facing the fate of being deposed or even killed.

"Xiangjun, tomorrow is the time to sacrifice to the heavens, what can you do to make it difficult for the Queen Mother's conspiracy to succeed?"

Seeing that His Majesty the Emperor of Darong was obviously out of order, Hua Xiangjun couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart, but on the surface, he made an uncomfortable and distressed appearance, sighed weakly, and said: "With the queen mother's strong and domineering, if there is no reasonable reason, Your Majesty may inevitably be escorted to the temple by her." ”

At this point, she paused to catch her breath before slowly speaking, "Maybe...... For His Majesty, who has always been in good health, being sick is not a good excuse. But if it's an injury...... Especially if you have an injury to your leg, it should be enough to avoid tomorrow's sacrifice to the heavens. ”

Yu Wengang's eagle eyes flashed several times one after another, and he suddenly slapped his thigh violently and said, "Good idea! No matter how insistent the imperial grandmother is, it is impossible to carry me, the seriously injured emperor, to the altar in front of the people of the world. ”

A shallow smile with a hint of mischievous hint flashed in Hua Xiangjun's eyes, "Then how does Your Majesty plan to let your dragon body be seriously injured by accident?"

Yu Wengang couldn't help but smile, thought about it, and said: "Xiangjun, you are sick in bed, I am very uneasy, so I thought of doing something for you, the future queen, but accidentally injured myself. How does this story sound?"

Hua Xiangjun couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Then Your Majesty must be very careful, don't really hurt yourself." ”

Yu Wengang was in a good mood when he heard that she cared so much about herself, and said with a smile: "Although it is a fake show, it must be real." But Xiangjun, don't worry, I am a person who practices martial arts, and I have my own measure, and I will never let myself be too embarrassed!"

Hua Xiangjun nodded reassuringly, but her face faintly showed a look of sleepiness and exhaustion.

Yu Wengang saw it in his eyes, and said distressedly: "You are still sick, you really shouldn't bother more." It's better to get a good night's sleep and recuperate. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, but I still want to ...... with Your Majesty Talk a little longer...... Words ......"

As she spoke, her eyes gradually closed together.

Yu Wengang looked at her delicate sleeping face with a doting look on his face, and sat down for a while before reluctantly getting up and leaving.

As soon as His Majesty the Emperor left, Cui'er took out a small pill from her bosom, took a glass of water, and dissolved the pill in the water.

Then, she carefully fed the glass of water to Hua Xiangjun to drink.

In less than a moment, Hua Xiangjun woke up and turned around.

Cui'er touched her forehead with her little hand, nodded happily, and said, "No more fever! Miss's medical skills are really magical, just one pill, and the so-called wind and cold disease has been cured!"

Hua Xiangjun smiled and glanced at her, "Silly girl, if you are really infected with wind and cold, where can you be cured so easily?!"

Cui'er just grinned, and then asked curiously: "Miss, what you just said to Yu Wengang is true?

Hua Xiangjun nodded, and said with a solemn face: "It's true!"

Cui'er tilted her little head and thought for a while, before she spoke again: "Dayu has already passed His Majesty the Emperor's proposal to send troops, and the prince should now be on his way to Chongyuan with his army. And the Beirong cavalry will also set off tomorrow, I wonder which of them will be faster?"

Hua Xiangjun's face couldn't help but show an unpredictable smile, "I have asked Xiao Feng to map the terrain around the barren ridge where we used to stay when we were robbed by the King of Chiyang, and passed it on to Prince Ding.

I think that the prince, who is very good at the art of war, will definitely make full use of this information, set up an ambush there, and teach those Beirong cavalry a hard lesson!

And this period that Empress Dowager Yin has painstakingly chosen to send troops to the abyss will eventually become the starting day for her to fall from the pinnacle of power!"
