Traveling through the ancient times

The Queen of Xiliang winked at the maid beside her.

The maid understood and took out a small porcelain bottle from the box they brought from the imperial city.

"queen!"

"Well, go to the kitchen and make some snacks yourself. I'll take them to apologize to my father later."

"Yes, Queen!"

About an hour later, the maid returned to the queen's bedroom with a food box.

"Your Majesty, the dessert is ready!"

Queen Xiliang glanced at the food box, closed her eyes, and took a deep breath.

When he opened his eyes again, they were cold, "Well, take it with you and follow me!"

"Yes!"

"My dear, you should come with us and apologize to your grandfather!"

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

After returning, Commander Xiong did some boxing to suppress the rage rising in his heart. He was now sitting in the house thinking about countermeasures.

The Queen of Xiliang brought the Third Prince to Governor Xiong's courtyard...

"Governor, the Queen and the Third Prince are here."

"What are they here for?" Governor Xiong said in a bad tone.

Commander Xiong had just gotten very angry with them and had just come back. Why were those mother and son chasing after him?

Do you want to piss him off to death so you can take over his military power?

"I don't know!" The guard felt aggrieved, he was just here to pass on the message.

"Please come in!" He wanted to see what the two men were up to.

"Yes!"

The guards hurried out to invite the queen and the third prince in...

Governor Xiong had a gloomy face as he watched the mother and son approach. King Xiliang knew that Governor Xiong was unhappy, so he put on a smiling face.

"Father, I just spoke without restraint and made you angry. I asked the kitchen to make some of your favorite snacks to make amends to you!"

After the queen finished speaking, she winked at the third prince, who stepped forward with his hands clasped in front of him. "Yes, grandfather, please forgive me for this time."

Governor Xiong snorted in his heart. He would not accept a slap in the face and then a candy.

"I dare not. You are the king and I am your subject. Your Majesty, Queen and Your Highness, you do not need to apologize to me."

Seeing that Governor Xiong was not grateful, the queen put on a smile and handed him a piece of dessert. "Father, this dessert was specially made by my daughter in the kitchen. Please try it while it's hot!"

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I have a toothache and the doctor said I shouldn't eat sweets." The weasel paid New Year's greetings to the chicken, but he had no good intentions.

"It's okay. This is made with sweet osmanthus. My daughter knows that you have bad teeth, so she specifically told me to put less sugar. You will know after you try it."

The queen spoke with sincerity and kept referring to her daughter...

Governor Xiong sighed in his heart, this daughter whom he had loved so much since she was a child!

He has been in the army all year round and has rarely seen his daughter since she entered the palace. He has not eaten the pastries made by his daughter for many years.

"Grandfather, please try one! This is also a token of my mother's love and my grandson's love. We are still a family. Please don't be angry with me."

The third prince stood up with a flattering look on his face and bowed to Commander Xiong.

Governor Xiong was a man who would respond to soft words but not hard ones. After repeated persuasion from his daughter and grandson, he took the cake from the queen, thinking that it would be no big deal to eat one.

Anyway, after eating the cakes, he would definitely not help them with the matter.

Seeing Admiral Xiong finish a cake, the Queen and the Third Prince smiled even more.

"How is it, father? Is it to your liking?"

"Not bad!" It has a slightly sweet taste and melts in your mouth. It is really good.

"Would you like to have another one?"

The queen took another one and handed it to Governor Bear, but he politely declined.

"No, you guys eat some too!"

The Third Prince waved his hands repeatedly, "These are all prepared for Grandfather, how can we eat them? Grandfather, you should eat them!"

“What are you talking about? I can’t finish so much, you guys eat all of it…” As Governor Xiong was speaking, he felt his vision start to blur and his head started to feel dizzy. Governor Xiong realized that something was wrong.

"You...this pastry has..." Before he could finish his words, Governor Xiong felt dizzy and then passed out.

"Father, don't blame your daughter. You forced me to do this."

The queen caught the bear governor who was about to fall, and said, "My son, help your grandfather to the inner room."

"Yes, Queen Mother!"

The queen walked to the door and said, "Give orders. The governor has suddenly fallen ill and is bedridden. All matters in the palace and the army will be temporarily handed over to the third prince to take care of."

After the Third Prince helped General Xiong lie down on the bed, he followed the queen to General Xiong's study and successfully obtained the tiger talisman that commanded the three armies.

The King of Xiliang also received a reply from the guards, saying that the third prince Dongyi had arrived at the border.

"Very good! Send a letter to the Third Prince Dong Yi, telling him that his sweetheart is in our hands, and ask him to bring Qi Muhe, one million taels of gold, and five hundred dan of grain to Yanjiao Ridge to exchange for him at noon tomorrow."

"Let the Third Prince see me!"

The guards took the order and went down.

"Father, you are looking for your son!"

"Well, you will take the woman and the 200,000 troops to Yanjiaoling tomorrow. I have sent someone to send a letter to the Third Prince of Dongyi, asking them to take Qi Muhe, one million taels of gold, and five hundred dan of grain, and go there to exchange for people."

The King of Xiliang looked at his only remaining son with cloudy eyes. How could the little tricks that the Third Prince and the Queen did in private be hidden from his eyes and ears?

But now his body was getting weaker and weaker, he was breathing out more than breathing in, and he was sleeping most of the time, so he couldn't care less.

"I will have the commander of the imperial guards lead the remaining 300,000 troops directly to the imperial city, and both sides will set out together."

"This is our only chance. We must succeed and not fail. Do you understand?"

The Third Prince's eyes sparkled with excitement, "Yes, I will definitely fulfill your mission."

The messenger sent by King Xiliang quickly delivered the letter to the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the city delivered the letter directly to Lu Mingqian.

When Lu Mingcheng heard that the letter was from the Xiliang messenger, he leaned over to take a look. "What does the letter say?"

Lu Mingqian read through it quickly, his eyes filled with burning anger, and his clenched fists at his sides exuded a chilling chill, as if he was about to blow the enemy's head off in the next second.

He handed the letter to the others and they all quickly glanced through it. Everyone's expressions were tense, their eyes were as cold as ice, and they exuded tremendous anger.

"What do you think?"

The King of Xiliang has an extremely big appetite. Not only did he want Qi Muhe, he even dared to set his sights on Dong Yi.

Qi Muhe was the first to speak out his plan, "I have written a letter and asked someone to send it to my brother-in-law. I think it should have arrived.

Tomorrow I will go and get the first painting back, and then you can lead your troops and my brother-in-law to attack from both sides and kill that bastard. Then we'll see how he can get away with it."

Lu Mingqian patted Qi Muhe's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, let's think of a foolproof method that can both rescue Chu Hua and prevent you from falling into their hands."

"They are going to replace her tomorrow. This is the most feasible method at the moment. Those people were originally coming for me, and Chu Hua was also implicated by me, so they asked me to go and replace her.

I am quite familiar with Tada County. Don't worry, I won't let them take control of me. I will ask the people sent by my brother-in-law to find a chance to infiltrate the Xiliang army tomorrow. I still have a chance to escape."

“Even if I am temporarily trapped by them, their purpose is to use me to threaten my brother-in-law, and I will be fine before I meet my brother-in-law.

The first painting has been in their hands for so long, I don't know if it is safe now, don't hesitate, just make the decision!"

Lu Mingqian didn't expect Qi Muhe would resolutely ask to exchange the new year's painting.

Now Qi Muhe no longer needs Lu Mingqian's protection. The people sent by King Qilin have arrived, and Qi Muhe can go back to Xiliang with them at any time.

They have been together for so many years and have a deep friendship with each other. He feels that it is a bit unfair to use Qi Muhe as an exchange.
