The White-haired Queen

So, Wen Lanyue asked: "Do you have any problem with your uncle?"

The young emperor replied: "I have no problem with the emperor's uncle, but I do have a problem with you and the emperor's uncle doing so many projects together."

Wen Lanyue said: "But everything we do is for Shangxie Kingdom and its people."

The little emperor said: "You can also work on these projects with me. We can work together for Shangxie Kingdom and its people."

Wen Lanyue was somewhat speechless, and said with a hint of anger: "I am your mother. From now on, you can no longer call me Sister Yue'er. You can only call me Mother."

The little emperor said angrily, "You are not my queen mother. I don't want you to be my queen mother." Then he ran out angrily.

……

The next day, Jiang Yuxuan, the envoy of Beicang Kingdom, arrived at Shangxie Kingdom, and the Minister of Rites Wen Li'an was responsible for all reception matters.

Beicang Kingdom is located to the north of Shangxie Kingdom. The two countries share adjacent territories and have a delicate relationship with both cooperation and competition.

When Wenjing Kingdom peacefully transitioned to Shangxie Kingdom, Beicang Kingdom was watching covetously. Since the politics of Shangxie Kingdom was relatively clear, Beicang Kingdom only had the desire but not the courage to commit crimes.

At present, the young boy has succeeded to the throne of Shangxie Kingdom, and the power in the court is divided into three parts.

In order to grasp the latest developments of Shangxie Kingdom, the Emperor of Beicang Kingdom decided to send envoys to Shangxie Kingdom to find out its true strength.

The Shangxie Kingdom does not want war and attaches relatively great importance to the diplomatic mission of the Beicang Kingdom.

On the second day after envoy Jiang Yuxuan arrived at Sifang Pavilion, the young emperor of Shangxie Kingdom held a grand welcome banquet and received him personally.

At the banquet, Jiang Yuxuan, with his wit and eloquence, had a friendly exchange with the officials of Shangxie State and gained a preliminary understanding of the political, economic and cultural conditions of Shangxie State.

However, Jiang Yuxuan knew very well that the purpose of this mission was not just simple communication, but more importantly to find out the strengths and weaknesses of Shangxie Kingdom.

So, when the banquet was almost over, Jiang Yuxuan took the warhorse and said, "This is a gift from my king to your emperor. I beg the emperor to accept it."

This warhorse is the most outstanding horse in the territory of Beicang Kingdom. It is a horse trained personally by the general of Beicang Kingdom. It has a tall stature, its fur is as dazzling as flames, and its four hooves step on the ground powerfully, as if it contains endless power.

However, its character is extremely unruly, and currently, no one can tame it except the general of Beicang Kingdom.

The young emperor also expressed his gratitude sincerely and asked Sima Cun, the herdsman judge of the Herdsman Department, to lead the horse back to the stable.

Seeing this, Jiang Yuxuan hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, in our Beicang country, the gift of war horses not only demonstrates our country's military strength, but also expresses respect and friendship for your emperor."

"Accepting this warhorse means your country's recognition and response to our Beicang country's friendly attitude. So, Your Majesty, please mount the horse and show your might and bravery."

The little emperor froze for a moment. If he didn't ride, it would be a disrespect to the friendly relations of the Beicang Kingdom; if he rode, he might fall off the horse at any minute.

Sima Cun said: "Your Majesty is a dragon, how can you do whatever you want?"

Jiang Yuxuan said: "Does your country intend to accept our friendship?"

Sima Cun said: "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. In my country, the emperor is worth millions of gold. How can he do as he pleases?"

Jiang Yuxuan said: "Since you ignore our friendship, then we have nothing to talk about." After that, he pretended to leave.

Minister of Rites Wen Li'an stepped forward and said, "Since everyone insists, we might as well compromise.

Jiang Yuxuan said, "What's the compromise? Tell me." He thought about it and immediately added, "As a token of our appreciation of our friendship, I would like to ask the powerful people in your country to try riding it."

Before Jiang Yuxuan went on a diplomatic mission to Shangxie Kingdom, he learned about the situation in Shangxie Kingdom. The powerful people in Shangxie Kingdom were the emperor, the regent and the queen mother.

After arriving yesterday, Jiang Yuxuan sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the Regent. He should be in the army today, so the one who was test riding should be the Queen Mother.

The Minister of Rites Wen Li'an originally wanted to refuse on the grounds that women were not allowed to interfere in government affairs, but everyone knew that the imperial seal of Shangxie State was in the hands of the Queen Mother. Now he had no choice but to beg the Emperor to ask the Queen Mother.

The young emperor said to Wen Li'an, "The Queen Mother is a woman, how can she ride a horse?"

Wen Li'an said, "Let's go and ask the Queen Mother first. I will buy time and then think of a solution."

The little emperor said, "This is the only way." He turned to Xiao Xizi and said, "Xiao Xizi, you pass on my order and go and invite the empress dowager now."

Xiao Xizi hurried to Shengde Palace and reported the whole story to Wen Lanyue.

Wen Lanyue said, "You go first and tell them that I will go after changing into a new set of clothes."

Wen Lanyue immediately had an idea, and a book on short-term horse training appeared in his hand. He flipped through it and found that it takes a certain amount of time to establish a good relationship with a horse.

But now it's something that needs to be done in minutes. By the way, use anesthetics. Local anesthetics don't affect movements, so it should be okay.

But the anesthetics used in the Imperial Medical Bureau are all herbal medicines, and it is impossible for them to take effect immediately. They take time.

If that doesn't work, just exchange it for physical anesthetics from the library. Wen Lanyue was shocked when she saw it. It was so expensive. It seemed that the points she had worked so hard to save could only be exchanged for that little bit of anesthetics.

Emergency, emergency, there is no other way, just exchange it.

All of a sudden, the points were reset to zero. Wen Lanyue said to herself bitterly, "When I have the chance, I must get it back from the Northern Cang Kingdom. Yes, with interest as well."

Wen Lanyue came to the horse farm in a tight suit. While observing the horses, he secretly gave them local anesthesia. When he saw that the time was almost up, he jumped up and rode away without saying a word.

Wen Lanyue's heart was beating fast, but her movements were smooth and flowing. Jiang Yuxuan was stunned. He rubbed his eyes and wondered why the horse was so obedient. Was the horse sick, or was the man too cool and made the horse dizzy?

Jiang Yuxuan snapped his fingers, and the followers retreated. Suddenly, a whistle sounded, and the horse became frantic as if it had received an order. It began to frequently swing its tail and let out a long neigh...

Wen Lanyue, who was on horseback, gently stroked the horse's head and said softly, "It's okay, it's okay. Behave well, and I will definitely treat you twice as well in the future."

The horse seemed to understand. The frequency of wagging its tail decreased, and the neighing sound gradually became lower...

Jiang Yuxuan was very surprised. In the past, when this horse was manic, it would kick its hooves crazily until it threw the person on its back off, and the mania would last for a long time. But now, not only did it not kick its hooves, it calmed down in less than two minutes.

How is this possible? It's incredible.

After turning around, Wen Lanyue slowly jumped off the horse and stood in front of Jiang Yuxuan unharmed.
