The Prime Minister's delicate wife can control her husband

Huang Hao was frightened by Huang Yu's words. "I'm afraid that neither of us brothers will get the throne, and the position will be given to the third brother. Besides, father is really partial. You and I are brothers. If both of us die in Wu State, what will happen to mother? Father originally wanted to depose mother. What if the third brother becomes the emperor?"

"The emperor sent someone to tell us to return to Qi the day after tomorrow."

When the envoy heard his words, he was surprised and asked, "You are going back to Qi so soon? Doesn't His Majesty have to wait at least seven days in Wu to find out everything before returning to Wu?"

"Father did ask us to return to Qi tomorrow, but he didn't say how to return to Qi."

"Your Highness, do you mean to leave the capital of Wu State first and then set out from the surrounding counties to return to Qi State and take the opportunity to find out the truth?"

"Yeah." Huang Yu nodded in agreement.

At dawn, Huang Yu led the delegation to the front of the palace. Huang Yu stood out and pointed at the gifts behind him and said, "Since your majesty has granted the marriage between Huang Jun and the princess, these gifts are from our Qi State. We hope that through the former crown prince, we can enhance the friendship between the two countries."

The ministers at the back carried the gifts one by one. When they saw the gifts prepared by Qi, they said, "These... these are all state gifts. I didn't expect the Emperor of Qi to attach so much importance to them."

Huang Yu smiled and said, "Father has always attached great importance to this marriage, and he also asked me to convey that if the former crown prince is willing to return to Qi, father is willing to abdicate the throne to him."

Huang Hao stared at him for a few seconds, "When did father say this?"

"Heyo! Is there such a good thing?" Emperor Wu laughed from above, "Then what was your intention in trying so hard to seize the throne ten years ago?"

"My father said that as long as the imperial seal is not returned, Qi will always belong to the royal family. Since Huang Jun is carrying the imperial seal, he will always be the emperor of Qi."

"Okay, okay, this is your Huang family's business, not our Wu country's business, so leave now!"

Emperor Wu allowed them to leave the capital. After leaving the city, Huang Hao asked, "Did the emperor really say that?"

"No, I made it up," Huang Yu said.

"I wonder how could your majesty say such a thing!"

......

In Balang County, Wang Xinlin also received a message from her father, "Everything is settled!" She showed the letter to Jiao Niang and the others. Since her identity was announced, Wang Xinlin no longer hid anything from the two of them and just took them shopping.

"Congratulations on your marriage, it's a cause for celebration!" Yan Qin praised.

"Big sister also wishes me success in becoming a princess. I hope you will take good care of me in Wu Kingdom in the future."

Hearing the conversation in the room, Yan Sheng also teased Huang Jun, "Double happiness!", and patted him on the shoulder.

"Princess, our secret guards in Zhou Kingdom are holding a banquet today to celebrate." The person outside the room asked.

"Got it. Tell that person to prepare a banquet tonight. I will take my sisters to the banquet."

"Yes! Princess."

The six of them came to Jinxiufang to choose clothes. Jiaoniang stared at Yan Sheng and asked, "Is this yours too?"

"Shh!" Yan Sheng covered her mouth, "Keep it a secret!"

The six people chose their clothes and went to the banquet. Led by someone, they came to a general's mansion with the word "Gong" written on a plaque.

"I didn't expect that the border general of Zhou State was actually the secret guard of Wu State!" Yan Sheng and Huang Jun looked at each other, and Huang Jun patted him on the shoulder, "What a blessing for you!"

Jiao Niang glanced at Yan Sheng, then she came to Yan Sheng and whispered, "The general has seen my face."

"Don't be afraid! You hugged Wang Xinlin at the banquet, and he will be dead after the banquet."

Wang Xinlin took Jiao Niang and Yan Qin to the mansion. In the yard, except for Gong Lingyuan, all the others were her secret guards for this trip. Gong Lingyuan and the two men in black saluted each other.

"Princess, please!" Gong Lingyuan bent his back and invited the others in, but his eyes were fixed on Jiao Niang. Seeing Wang Xinlin hugging Jiao Niang tightly, he didn't think much about it and murmured, "Are there really people in the world who look so alike?"

After sending the six people to the banquet, Gong Lingyuan left tactfully. He was staring at the people inside the house from outside and it seemed that they had a close relationship.

"Sir, are these people the princess's friends?" he asked the man in black.

"Yes! Those two ladies are sworn sisters of the princess, and they have their own husbands except for their husbands."

After hearing the answer from the man in black, Gong Lingyuan was convinced that he must have made a mistake. When he entered the room to add more wine, he asked the princess, "Can I say a few words?"

Wang Xinlin introduced the five of them, "This general helped arrange today's banquet. Let's raise our glasses to thank the general."

The six of them raised their glasses and drank. Gong Lingyuan smiled and said, "It is my honor to serve the princess. When will the princess return to Wu State?"

"We will set off for Wu Kingdom early tomorrow morning. Please help me take care of the food along the way."

Gong Lingyuan assured Wang Xinlin, "Is the princess okay? So are these friends of yours going back to Wu Kingdom too?"

Jiao Niang's heart trembled when she heard his words. When Yan Qin was about to answer that he was from Zhou, Yan Sheng on the opposite side signaled him not to speak. Yan Qin then realized that General Gong was a traitor. If he found out that they were not from Wu, he should wait until they returned to Zhou and kill them all to eliminate future troubles.

"Yes, my two sisters are going back to Wu State." Wang Xinlin also realized that Gong Lingyuan deliberately raised this question, trying to find out the truth by surprise.

"Okay, Princess. I'll arrange it tomorrow morning. I'll be leaving now." He then closed the door for them.

Huang Jun saw him leaving, so he stood up and left the table, "I need to go to the toilet."

Huang Jun was following behind Gong Lingyuan when he suddenly heard a scream from a distance. He hurried to check and found that Gong Lingyuan had his throat cut alive.

Huang Jun checked his wound and found that it was the arrow in his sleeve that he made. "Who is it?"

He returned to his seat and told Yan Sheng that the man was dead. Yan Sheng nodded as if it was a matter of course.

"Did you send someone?"

"OK!"

On the way back from the banquet, Yan Sheng finally started to explain, "When you went to Jinxiufang, I had people make arrangements in advance. After all, it is more satisfying to kill the enemy with one's own hands."

Zhang Sui'an returned to Zuiyan Tower and showed the flying arrows in his sleeves to Mo Xuan and Tang Ling.

"Is it resolved so quickly?" Mo Xuan asked.

"Yeah!" Zhang Sui'an proudly told them what happened, and even gestured, "The man was shot dead by my cold arrow when he wasn't paying attention."

"......"

When they returned to their residence, the man in black reported, "Princess, our secret guards in Zhou State were killed?"

"What? Gong Lingyuan was killed?" Wang Xinlin said in disbelief.

"Yes, I suspect that it was the prince consort who killed him. According to our people, when Gong Lingyuan was killed, the prince consort just happened to be out of the house."
