After becoming a princess, she fell in love with the emperor of the enemy country

"What did you just say, brother?" Concubine Rong quickly pulled Zhou Heng back, fearing that he would say something scary again.

"I'm serious. I fell in love with Mrs. He at first sight." Zhou Heng looked serious and didn't seem to be joking.

Of course, Concubine Rong knew that her brother was serious.

No, you all like to fall in love at first sight, you too, and that kid Xuan Yelan too.

Concubine Rong looked back at Qi Wuyou, who looked up and said seriously, "It is your freedom to decide who you like. General Zhou should go and ask your mother in person."

"Thank you, little queen, for your help," Zhou Heng said happily.

Qi Wuyou: There is no need to care so much about this little thing.

At this time, Mei Xue pushed open the door and interrupted the conversation.

"Madam has finished reading. Please come in, everyone. Madam has something to tell you."

"Mrs. He, how is my mother's illness?" Xuan Yelan asked anxiously.

Mrs. He was shocked. She had noticed this young man from the beginning, but she didn't expect that it was the emperor himself who came.

But in just a moment, Madam He calmed down and said, "According to my diagnosis, the Empress Dowager must have been poisoned."

"Poisoned?" Xuan Yelan couldn't believe it.

"Yes, and according to my estimation, the Empress Dowager should have been poisoned for more than 20 years," Mrs. He added.

The room was completely silent. More than 20 years ago, the Queen Mother was already the Empress. Who would attack the Empress of a country? The answer is self-evident.

"Your Majesty, could you please tell me my birth date?" Mrs. He asked again.

Although Xuan Yelan felt strange, he still told the truth.

Mrs. He calculated and found that the birth date given by Xuan Yelan was exactly twenty-two years ago, which was later than the time she inferred that the empress dowager was poisoned.

Madam He stood up and saluted Xuan Yelan, who quickly supported her and said, "Madam He, please feel free to speak."

"Then I will speak frankly," Madam He took a deep breath, "Your Majesty is probably not the Queen Mother's biological son."

This statement shocked everyone. They couldn't blame anyone else, but now almost no one knew about this matter except a few of their close friends.

"How would Madam He know?" Xuan Yelan asked with difficulty.

"The Queen Mother just told me that the first headache occurred about 25 years ago. According to my preliminary diagnosis, this poison is a chronic poison. It is not fatal at first, but it will make..."

Madam He paused for a moment and continued, "It makes the poisoned person infertile."

Everyone understood. No wonder the Queen Mother had never had children. This was actually the reason.

Even though they knew what kind of person the late emperor was, everyone still felt sad.

That man and the Queen Mother were childhood sweethearts. He eventually took advantage of the Li family's power to ascend to the throne, and then poisoned a woman to deprive her of her right to be called a mother.

Xuan Yelan was very glad that he could have killed him this time.

However, "Madam He, is there an antidote for this poison?" Xuan Yelan clasped his fists.

"Your Majesty, please honor me," Even though An An was the queen now, she could not accept Xuan Yelan's courtesy.

"This poison can be cured. Besides, Your Majesty comes from a military family and has a good physique, so it will be easier to cure the poison." Madam He said.

"But the queen has been poisoned for a long time. I can cure the queen's current headache first, but to eradicate the remaining poison in the body, another medicinal ingredient is needed, which I don't have now." Mrs. He said.

"What medicine? I'll send someone to find it now," Xuan Yelan said excitedly.

Finally, his mother no longer had to suffer from illness, and he had to get this medicine no matter what.

"Cloudgrass," said Mrs. He.

"This herb is extremely rare. It only grows on cliffs, and only one plant grows in a place. It only grows after rain, and it takes one hour to grow. And it only grows for six hours. After six hours, the cloud grass will wither and die."

After Mrs. He finished speaking, the room fell silent again.

"However, I know where there is one." Mrs. He finally broke the silence.

"Where is it?" Xuan Yelan asked anxiously.

"The Imperial Palace of Qi." said Mrs. He.

"Back then, my father fell off a cliff while trying to pick this herb and eventually died," Mrs. He said sadly.

“Back then, when the common woman entered the palace, this herb was presented to the Emperor of Qi.”

Seeing Xuan Yelan's embarrassment, Madam He spoke again, "I can use other medicine to suppress the poison in the Queen Mother's body, so that the Queen Mother will not have headaches for five years."

"In that case, thank you very much, Madam He." Xuan Yelan nodded this time.

On the way back, Qi Wuyou specially sat in a carriage with Xuan Yelan.

"Do you want to attack Qi?" Qi Wuyou was the first to break the silence.

"I don't know," Xuan Yelan was indeed very conflicted.

If they attack, Qi Wuyou's identity will be very embarrassing. If not, the old man of Qi will definitely not take out the herbs.

"Don't worry about me. If you want to fight, then go ahead. Now all the countries are eyeing the fat piece of meat of Qi. Instead of letting others take it, you might as well take it." Qi Wuyou said indifferently.

"But you..." Xuan Yelan hesitated to speak.

Qi Wuyou certainly knew Xuan Yelan’s concerns.

"Do you think it is possible for me to become a good queen in four years?" Qi Wuyou suddenly asked.

"You... are naturally excellent," Qi Wuyou didn't hear clearly.

"What did you say?" Qi Wuyou looked at Xuan Yelan and moved closer to him, wanting him to speak more clearly.

"Nothing," Xuan Yelan looked a little unnatural, but had to agree with Qi Wuyou.

"You want to win the hearts of the people and then find an excuse." Xuan Yelan said.

Qi Wuyou raised his eyebrows, "But I still need your help in this matter."

"Just say it," Xuan Yelan said.

"First, I need a token that allows me to travel freely within the territory of Xuan State, and preferably one that can also mobilize troops."

"Okay," Xuan Yelan agreed directly.

"Secondly, I need someone, someone with great martial arts skills to protect Yu Shu's safety."

"Okay." Although he didn't know why he had to protect a maid, he had plenty of people with strong martial arts skills among his secret guards.

"Finally, I haven't thought about it yet. Please wait until I have thought about it before bringing it up again."

"it is good."

Qi Wuyou raised his eyebrows and looked at Xuan Yelan, "Don't you have any questions about my requests?"

"I believe you," Qi Wuyou blushed as he looked at Xuan Yelan's determined eyes.

I'm asking you if you have anything to ask, why are you being so ambiguous?

Qi Wuyou was the first to look away, "Since there is no problem, when can you prepare my things?"

Xuan Yelan looked at Qi Wuyou and said with a smile, "Go back to the palace. I already have someone to protect. There are many people who meet your requirements among my secret guards. As for the token you want, why not exchange it for the Imperial Sword?"

"As for the palace maid named Yu Shu, I think we should let her learn martial arts for a few days first."

"Do you know what I'm going to send her to do?" Qi Wuyou turned around suddenly.

"Well, my spies have already found out everything about you and the people around you. This Yushu family used to be in business, right? Plus, you have so many shops, so it's not difficult to guess your plans." Xuan Yelan analyzed.

Qi Wuyou: It turns out that you already understood me clearly when I didn’t know it.

Tsk, I now doubt whether there are any spies of yours around me.
