I am Yuan Niaoniao

Soon the envoys sent by Han Junyi arrived at Yuan State.

"Your Majesty, the envoy from Dadu has arrived." Ming Xiao stepped forward and reported.

"Well, let him go to the palace to rest, and we'll see you tomorrow at court." Chen Shaoyi nodded and continued to work. Yuan Niaoniao was also there to help review the memorials.

A quarter of an hour passed...

"Being the emperor is really tiring." Chen Shaoyi finally finished reviewing the memorials in front of him, stretched his back, looked at Niao Niao and said, "Are you tired too?"

"Fortunately, this is better than giving acupuncture to patients." Yuan Niaoniao rubbed her arm and stood up and said, "Let's go out for a walk and get some fresh air."

"Okay." Chen Shaoyi nodded.

The two strolled in the imperial garden, enjoying the rare quiet time.

"Compared with those in Yuan Mansion, the flowers here are more beautiful and exaggerated. You, don't be too extravagant." Yuan Niaoniao exclaimed.

"To make a beauty smile, no matter how exaggerated, it has to be done." Chen Shaoyi said with a smile.

Yuan Niaoniao blushed, "You just like to tease me."

Chen Shaoyi gently held her hand and said, "I am telling the truth."

At this time, a butterfly flew by, attracting Yuan Niaoniao's attention. She ran after the butterfly, then waved her hand gently, and instantly hibiscus petals floated all over the sky, and her laughter echoed in the garden.

Chen Shaoyi looked at her cheerful figure, his heart filled with happiness.

"Be careful!" Chen Shaoyi suddenly shouted.

Yuan Niao Niao missed a step and nearly fell down. Chen Shaoyi caught her in time and held her in his arms.

"Thank you..." She simply leaned in Chen Shaoyi's embrace, listening to his heartbeat. This is what happiness is embodied.

Chen Shaoyi looked down at her, his eyes full of tenderness, "Don't be afraid of falling as long as I'm here."

"Of course." Yuan Niaoniao raised her head and said with a smile.

"Okay, stop flirting and consider the feelings of a single widower like me." Yan Muyu's voice came from behind the large flower bed in the middle. He was taking a nap here and was disturbed by the noise of the two people. He also heard such disgusting words, which gave him goose bumps.

"I haven't told you that you eavesdropped on the conversation between a couple." Yuan Niaoniao said unyieldingly, "Yan Muyu, why are you sleeping here?"

"I'm not trying to create a picture of a beautiful man," Yan Muyu said with a shrug.

"I admit that you are quite pretty, but don't go too far, you guy." Yuan Niao Niao and Chen Shaoyi looked at each other and laughed.

"Shaoyi, I want to ask you something." Yan Muyu regained his serious look in an instant and looked at Chen Shaoyi seriously.

"Ask, not necessarily answer." Chen Shaoyi nodded.

"You kid!" Yan Muyu crossed his hands in front of his chest: "What is the origin of your military advisor?"

"Are you talking about Jiaxin?" Yuan Niaoniao smiled and said, "She's from the Yi tribe!"

"Of course I can tell that she is a foreigner. No Han Chinese has this ability!" Yan Muyu said with certainty, "Where did you find this treasure of hers? Does she have any other brothers or sisters? Lend me one!"

"No, she is the only one in the world." Chen Shaoyi blinked at Yan Muyu.

"Don't lie to me, you cruel man..." Yan Muyu started his improper behavior again.

Yuan Niaoniao and Chen Shaoyi looked at each other, then quickly turned around and left the scene, leaving Yan Muyu, who hadn't noticed yet, muttering to himself. When he found out, he stamped his feet in anger: "These two bad guys!"

The next morning, Chen Shaoyi and Yuan Niaoniao changed into formal attire and prepared to meet envoys from various countries.

"The Emperor has arrived, and the Empress has arrived." The eunuch's voice echoed in the hall. Under the gaze of everyone, Chen Shaoyi and Yuan Niaoniao walked hand in hand to the magnificent throne.

"See your Majesty, long live your Majesty."

"Long live your Majesty, Queen."

"Everyone, please stand up." Chen Shaoyi waved his hand, and everyone returned to their seats.

"Your Majesty, I am an envoy from Dadu. This is a gift from Dadu. Please accept it." After the envoy said this, he waved his hand and asked someone to bring up three boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. The treasure boxes were shining brightly and the guests around could not help but exclaim in amazement.

"Your Majesty is so polite." Chen Shaoyi smiled slightly, with a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes, but he soon regained his composure. He waved his hand and signaled the palace servants around him to accept the gift.

After the palace servants took away the gifts, the envoy spoke again: "This time, I am here on the orders of the Emperor of Dadu. In addition to presenting gifts to Your Majesty, I also have an important mission."

Chen Shaoyi raised his eyebrows and signaled the envoy to continue.

"Our Emperor Dadu has long heard that your country is vast and rich in resources and has a wealth of talented people, and he has longed for it. This time, I was sent here to make friends with your country and establish friendly diplomatic relations. Our Emperor Dadu hopes to work hand in hand with your country for common development, to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results, and to benefit the people of both countries." The envoy said earnestly.

Chen Shaoyi listened quietly to the envoy's words. After a moment's silence, he slowly said: "I appreciate the good intention of your emperor. Regarding the alliance, I need time to think about it. After all, this concerns the future of the two countries and cannot be acted rashly. I also know that Dadu is a powerful country in the south and its strength should not be underestimated. If we can form an alliance with Dadu, it will undoubtedly be a good thing for Yuan State. But at the same time, I also need to consider various factors to ensure that such cooperation will not bring any risks to the country. Therefore, I want to discuss in detail with the emperor of Dadu, so please ask the envoy to convey my intention to the emperor of Dadu." He was afraid that other countries would back down after hearing the rejection, so he perfunctorily said it. After all, he knew that Han Junwu was dead, so it was too early to talk about the alliance!

The envoy nodded quickly and said, "Your Majesty is right. Such a major matter does require careful consideration. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, our Emperor Dadu is also sincere and sincerely hopes to reach cooperation with your country. If Your Majesty has any conditions or requirements, please feel free to raise them and we will do our best to meet them."

Chen Shaoyi smiled and nodded, indicating that he would seriously consider the matter. Afterwards, he and the envoy chatted about some other topics in a harmonious and friendly atmosphere.

The envoy from Dadu finally felt relieved and started observing the people around him. When he saw Yuan Wuhe's face, he rubbed his eyes vigorously, as if he was hallucinating, "Yuan... Old General Yuan?" But Yuan Wuhe had clearly been dead for a long time. He was so scared that he quickly looked elsewhere, but when he saw Sun Jin, he was confused again: "Isn't this General Sun?" He patted his head. He was a little confused, and when he looked up at the Emperor of Yuan, his legs began to tremble, "Prince Chen? Princess Chen????" He pinched his thighs hard, and the intense pain made him realize that this was not an illusion. He looked at the many familiar faces present again, and his face turned pale. It couldn't be that he saw a ghost in broad daylight.

Yuan Niaoniao had already noticed the envoy with a deathly pale face, and she forced herself to look away, fearing that she would accidentally laugh out loud.

After the court meeting was over, the envoy from Dadu almost had to be carried back to the palace by palace servants to rest.

"Didn't you see the envoy's face? He was so pale. He must have been scared to death." Yuan Niaoniao said with a breathless laugh. "What do you think he will say when he returns?"

"Han Junyi will just think he's crazy." Chen Shaoyi smiled and said, "After I'm done with my work, I should go back and meet Han Junyi."

"Leave the matter of instigating other countries to me." Yan Muyu walked over and said.

"It's up to you." Yuan Nianiao smiled.

"I've been out for a few days, and it's time to go back. Goodbye, my friends." Yan Muyu came over to say goodbye.

"Take care." Chen Shaoyi nodded.

"Have a safe trip, Mu Yu." Yuan Niao Niao smiled.

"You two are so heartless. I'm about to leave and you don't even bother to see me off!" Yan Muyu pretended to be sad again.

Chen Shaoyi and Yuan Niaoniao rarely left, "Let's go, we'll take you to the city gate."

Yan Muyu then happily took the two of them in his arms and walked in between.

"There's really nothing we can do about you." Yuan Niaoniao was helplessly taken away by Yan Muyu.

It was not until they reached the city gate that Yan Muyu reluctantly touched Yuan Niao Niao's head, and then forcefully hugged Chen Shaoyi. Although he was punched by him, he was satisfied and rode away with his servants. "Goodbye."

"This guy!" Yuan Niao Niao shook her head and went back with Chen Shaoyi.

After returning to Zhao, Yan Muyu immediately began lobbying and inciting other countries to attack Dadu.

"How long can Han Junyi hide the fact of Han Junwu's death?" Yuan Niaoniao said as she put down her brush.

"He is determined to keep it a secret as long as possible, so it is impossible to estimate his thoughts. However, if you feel that you can't stand it anymore, then help Han Junwu." Chen Shaoyi showed a smile in his eyes.

"Help him!" Yuan Niaoniao also smiled.

So under the instruction of Chen Shaoyi, Ming Xiao immediately ordered all the secret guards who were ambushed in various places in Dadu to take action. They quickly spread the news that Han Junwu had died. These secret guards were scattered in every corner of Dadu and passed the news through various channels. Some secret guards used their network of relationships in the market to spread the rumor that Han Junwu had died throughout the streets and alleys; some used the official intelligence system of Dadu to convey the news to various departments and officials; and some secret guards chose more secret methods, such as secretly manipulating public opinion and creating rumors to spread this false news.

For a while, the whole Dadu was shrouded in the news that Han Junwu had died. People were discussing the fate of this once powerful figure. Some were sorry, some were glad, and some doubted the authenticity of the news. But in any case, the news had swept the whole country like a storm, causing a huge sensation. And all this was exactly what Chen Shaoyi and Ming Xiao expected to see. The conspiracy they carefully planned was gradually developing in the direction they expected.

...................

"Yier, Yier, there's going to be a big noise outside." Zhen Luoyi walked back and forth in the room with a nervous look on her face.

"I know. Who leaked it? No one except us knew about the death of our father!" Han Junyi was also worried. "I will check it out again. Please don't panic." Then he left in a hurry.

Zhen Luoyi was left standing there in a daze, his face full of melancholy.

The next morning, Han Junyi just went to court.

Prime Minister Jin stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, there are rumors about the Emperor outside right now. May I ask, Your Highness, how is the Emperor's health? Giving us ministers an accurate answer will also give us peace of mind!" Jin Wenbo did it on purpose. Ever since he received the letter from Jin Jingni, he knew what to do to bring Jin Jingni peace of mind.

Han Junyi glanced at Jin Wenbo without saying anything. He naturally knew that Jin Wenbo was taking the opportunity to make trouble. The news that Jin Jingni was bullied by Zhao Ping must have reached his ears.

Han Junyi took a deep breath and tried to keep his tone calm. "Don't worry, Prime Minister. My father is in good health. These are all nonsense. I will track down the people who spread the rumors." He knew in his heart that he couldn't let Jin Wenbo get hold of any evidence.

"Then could His Majesty please come out and say something." Fu Guoduo stepped forward and said.

"Yes, the emperor said not long ago that he would return to the previous dynasty soon." The Minister of War also said.

Those who had already been arranged by Chen Shaoyi also echoed.

"If the emperor knew that the ministers were so concerned about him, he would be very pleased." Han Junyi said calmly, "Eunuch Wei is also doing his best to take care of the emperor. The emperor will be able to meet everyone soon."

Jin Wenbo raised his lips slightly. What he wanted was Han Junyi's attitude. "Then I'll trouble you, Your Majesty. We ministers will feel at ease."

Seeing this, other ministers also agreed. Han Junyi frowned, knowing that this matter would not be easily resolved. "Ministers, if you have nothing else to do, please leave first."

After the ministers left, Han Junyi immediately summoned Feng and ordered them to investigate the source of the rumor. At the same time, he was secretly thinking about how to deal with it.

"Master, how do we break this situation?" Han Junyi looked at Wen Zili and asked.

"Your Highness, now is a great opportunity to announce the emperor's death." Wen Zili replied with a smile, "But we still have to put on a show."

"Oh?" Han Junyi frowned and looked at Wen Zili in confusion, wondering what he meant by that. Will it rain in a few days? Could it be related to solving the current dilemma? Han Junyi couldn't help but become curious.

Wen Zili smiled slightly, as if he saw through Han Junyi's thoughts. He said softly: "It will rain in a few days. Then we can find someone to wear the emperor's dragon robe and let him sit in the imperial garden in the rain..."

Han Junyi's eyes widened, obviously surprised by this plan. However, he soon understood Wen Zili's intention.

Wen Zili continued, "After this rain ends, we can announce it to the world."

"I understand." Han Junyi nodded.
