The reason why Feng Jiuqing wanted to get close to King Songshan was because King Songshan must know what happened that year, which would help him find Princess Anhe, and this person would also be of great help to Wuyou's future.

King Songshan has a cold and hard personality and is not easy to approach. His only weaknesses are his queen and son.

King Songshan didn't marry until he was thirty years old, and his wife was a Dai Yue. King Songshan only had one wife, which made him seem out of place in the royal family of Western Yan.

Feng Jiuqing also accidentally learned about what would happen today, so he deliberately waited on the roadside and chose the right moment to rescue the princess and her son.

Feng Jiuqing was thinking about what to do next, so he didn't notice that Wuyou beside him had a strange look on his face, nor did he know that there was another reason why Wuyou didn't want to enter the carriage. He just thought that Wuyou was sticking to him.

"princess!"

The guards guarding the palace were stunned by the miserable appearance of Lu Lan and the prince. How could the princess become like this after going out to worship Buddha?

"Where is the prince? This princess wants to see the prince immediately! Sir——"

When Lu Lan turned around, she found that the carriage that had been parked behind him had already gone far away. She thought that this man had some ulterior motive in saving her, but she didn't expect that he would actually leave?

Did she guess wrong?

Did this person really save her by chance, and not have any other intentions?

In the carriage that was going away, Wuyou was looking at Feng Jiuqing in confusion and said, "Brother, why don't you follow the princess? Maybe you can meet King Songshan."

For convenience, Feng Jiuqing asked Wuyou to call him brother outside.

Feng Jiuqing tapped Wuyou's forehead and said, "It's inevitable that people in the royal family are suspicious. My appearance was too coincidental. It's inevitable that he will be suspicious. Who knows, he might even accuse me of repaying a favor."

"Repaying a favor is offensive. We need his help, not to make enemies. Xiao Wuyou, the more anxious you are to fish, the less you will catch. It is not enough to just put down the ear."

"We have to lure people here instead of pushing them. You have to know that things that are pushed are generally not valuable."

Wuyou nodded, not quite understanding: "Wuyou understands."

Dai Viet, Xuanshi Palace, it is late at night.

"Your Majesty, you have just recovered from a serious illness. You should rest."

Mo Ling's face was extremely pale. After the Imperial Tutor and Prime Minister Lu and his wife left that day, he vomited blood and passed out. It was three days later when he woke up again. By the time he had the strength to wake up, the accumulated memorials had piled up higher than him.

The imperial tutor refused to help him review the memorials, so he had no choice but to concentrate on dealing with them, and before he knew it, it was already late.

"I'll review it for a while."

He wouldn't be able to sleep if he went back anyway, so he might as well review the memorials here to prevent him from having too many wild thoughts.

The Grand Tutor said that he had delivered the letter to Qingqing, but up to now, Qingqing had not given him a definite reply and there had been no news from him.

He secretly sent people to look for Qingqing, but there was no news. He was afraid that Qingqing would see him, and he didn't know how to face Qingqing. He was also afraid that Qingqing would not see him and would hide from him, which would result in him never seeing Qingqing again.

These days, he always had nightmares when he closed his eyes and couldn't sleep well. He always dreamed that Qingqing didn't want him anymore and said she didn't want to see him again. He begged Qingqing again and again in his dreams, but Qingqing was always very indifferent. Not only did she not agree to him, she also mocked him, saying that he only deserved one person and that he was not worthy of him.

Every time he woke up from a dream, he would break out in a cold sweat, and then feel lucky that it was just a dream. But Qingqing had asked him to marry someone else, could he still win her back? He was a little scared.

"Your Majesty, the imperial physician has told you that you are in poor health and asked you to rest more."

"Well, I'll take a rest after I finish reviewing it."

A trace of worry flashed in Lin Yu's eyes. His Majesty had just recovered from his illness. How could he stay up all night to review memorials? But his Majesty would not listen to his advice. He had no choice but to hope that Your Majesty would still be here.

His Majesty will definitely listen to your words. Although His Majesty misunderstood you before, before that, His Majesty always responded to your requests.

Alas, Commander Yan too, Your Majesty was so good to him, why would he betray Your Majesty?

Lin Yu was about to persuade him again, but Mo Ling spoke first: "Step aside, I want to be alone for a while."

"Yes." His Majesty was obviously in a bad mood. Lin Yu had no intention of dying to advise him, so he retreated respectfully.

Mo Ling sat alone in the Xuanshi Hall, looking tired and lonely. He was upset and could not read a single word of the memorial in his hand. He closed the memorial with a snap and lowered his eyes in deep thought.

Ah He in Fengyi Palace was also in deep thought. Ya Qing, who was standing beside him, was wearing eunuch's attire and looking at Ah He dimly with resentment.

He could have stayed on the beam, but Ah He cried and said he was afraid, so he had no choice but to change into eunuch's clothes and pretend to be Ah He's personal eunuch to accompany him.

After all, he was a well-known general in the North, and he had defeated the Northern Rong people on the battlefield. He had never thought in his life that he would become a eunuch one day, and he was willing to be a eunuch, ahem, a fake eunuch.

His Majesty was not willing to care about Ah He at all. Since he was the Grand Tutor's man, he was left in the palace. Moreover, he was the Queen's personal eunuch. Even the Imperial Chief Steward Lin Yu was very polite to him, not to mention other people.

After all, Ah He was the only concubine in the palace and was greatly favored. No one would be so blind as to provoke him.

Although His Majesty was forced to put on a show of favor, every time he came he would drive out all the palace servants except himself, and then go to a side hall to rest alone, ignoring Ah He at all.

But it’s better this way. Since the last time, Ah He has been very afraid of His Majesty. When he sees His Majesty, tears will flow unconsciously. He has to coax him for a long time every time, which is more tiring than fighting a war.

But it's not without gain. At least he is now a gold medal sleep-inducing master (well, according to what the master said before), with first-class skills in coaxing people to sleep, and he won't be flustered by crying anymore.

Ah He sat alone on a high seat with a cold expression. He looked quite dignified, but he was actually very scared. If Ya Qing hadn't been here, he would have cried on the spot.

These ladies of the royal family, one by one, seemed to be crazy and insisted on coming to see him. His Majesty didn't care at all. He couldn't refuse, so he had to bite the bullet and summon them. Woo woo woo, he didn't like it.

Mo Ling sat in the Xuanshi Hall for an hour. The furnishings of the Xuanshi Hall had long been restored to their original state, exactly the same as when Qingqing was here. Looking at these familiar objects, he could always think of how Qingqing looked when she first came to the Xuanshi Hall.

Every movement, every frown and smile seemed to be right in front of him, but when he reached out to touch them, they turned into pieces and disappeared, leaving him alone and lonely.
