Poisonous Pet World: The War King's Heart-stealing Medical Concubine

He slowly stood up, lowered his head and kissed Chu Zixi's smooth forehead again, and said softly but firmly: "Xi'er, I have to deal with this matter first. You stay here and rest until I come back."

Chu Zixi nodded sensibly and replied with a smile: "Well, go ahead and don't worry."

"Take good care of the princess!" After leaving these words, Jun Feimo turned around and left without hesitation, his steps firm and swift.

He walked across the courtyard, along the corridor, and soon arrived at the door of the study.

Stepping into the study, Tianyi hurried forward and respectfully handed a secret letter to Jun Feimo.

Jun Feimo reached out and took the secret letter with smooth and natural movements.

Then he carefully opened the envelope, took out the letter and read it carefully.

However, when he read the contents of the letter, his originally calm face suddenly became gloomy, as if a storm was coming. His brows were tightly furrowed, forming a deep "川" character.

Tianyi, who was standing nearby, keenly noticed the change in his master's mood and the sudden chill in the atmosphere around him.

He swallowed unconsciously, and asked in a low voice with courage: "Master, what exactly is written in this letter?"

Jun Feimo took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down, but his voice was still cold and low: "Prince Xiliang is dead!"

Upon hearing the news, Tianyi's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of astonishment, and he couldn't help but screamed: "Ah?"

Before he finished speaking, Jun Feimo stood up suddenly and walked out with big strides.

Tian Yi saw this and did not dare to be negligent. He hurriedly followed behind him and asked anxiously, "Master, where are you going?"

Jun Feimo didn't even turn around, but just coldly spat out two words: "Enter the palace!"

The emperor's sharp eyes, like two bolts of lightning, were fixed on Jun Feimo in front of him.

"Fei Mo, is what you said really true? This matter is of great importance, there must not be any falsehood!"

There was no fluctuation in Jun Feimo's handsome yet extremely cold face, and he still maintained an extraordinary calmness and determination.

He nodded slightly, then nodded solemnly, and then answered in a low, steady and powerful voice: "Brother, everything I said is true. The spies just sent a secret letter, and the exact news shows that the Prince of Xiliang has died. In this way, no one can restrain the ambitious Third Prince of Xiliang. And according to reliable intelligence, the Xiliang Kingdom is trying to take advantage of the fact that we are celebrating the New Year and the court is lax in its defenses to launch a surprise attack."

After hearing this shocking news, the emperor couldn't help but frown, forming a deep "川" shape of lines.

With his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth in the spacious imperial study with heavy steps and a little anxiety.

With every step he took, he seemed to hear the sound of the soles of his shoes rubbing against the ground, as if silently expressing his anxiety and uneasiness deep in his heart at the moment.

"Xiao Xizi!" The emperor suddenly stopped and shouted loudly.

Eunuch Xi, who was guarding outside the door, heard the voice and hurried in, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, what do you want me to do?"

The emperor took a deep breath and tried to calm his agitated emotions. Then he decisively ordered: "Immediately summon Prime Minister Xuan, the Duke of the Protectorate, the Minister of Revenue, and the Minister of War to the palace. I want to discuss countermeasures with them urgently! There must be no mistakes!"

Eunuch Xi did not dare to be negligent and quickly responded, "Yes, Your Majesty! I obey your command!" Then he turned around and ran out of the palace in a hurry to carry out the task of conveying the imperial edict.

In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire imperial study suddenly became extremely solemn, just like the suffocating silence before a storm is about to come...

Jun Feimo still maintained that lazy attitude. The emperor glanced at him, with a bit of blame and helplessness in his tone: "Why aren't you in a hurry at all?"

Jun Feimo said calmly, "What can you do if you are anxious? Don't worry, my brother. I came to the palace this time to tell you that you must ensure that the supplies in the rear are in place. You don't need to worry about other things. With me here, I will lead the army to the Lingnan border in three days. Since they dare to provoke a war, we will fight to the end. If this battle cannot make them sincerely convinced and surrender, I will never return to the court!"

After hearing this, the emperor felt a little relieved, but soon his brows knitted tightly again, and he sighed worriedly: "Although it is true, it is almost the end of the year, and every family is looking forward to reunion, but at this critical juncture, Xiliang and those barbarians actually openly raised troops to invade our border areas. In this way, the ones who suffer are the innocent people on the border!"

Seeing this, Jun Feimo stood up quickly and walked steadily to the emperor. "Brother, please don't worry too much. I have made preparations these days. This time, I will lead the army to fight, and I will do my best to ensure the safety of the border. However, as for the people, I hope that you can speed up the preparation of enough food and military supplies to ensure that our soldiers have sufficient supplies. At the same time, you must also send capable people to the local government to cooperate with them and actively appease the people's emotions. Make sure that the people can be calm and have a peaceful New Year."

After listening to this, the emperor nodded slightly, expressing his agreement: "Fei Mo, I will leave all the external wars to you, and I will take care of all the internal affairs. You must ensure your own safety and return safely during this expedition. I will wait for you and the generals of the Protectorate Palace to return victoriously in the palace."

"I still need to prepare for the military expedition in three days. Time waits for no one, so I will take my leave now." After saying that, Jun Feimo walked out of the imperial study with swift steps and agile figure. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared outside the door, leaving the emperor standing there quietly.

After Jun Feimo rushed back to the palace without stopping for a moment, he immediately summoned a group of staff and generals to meet in the study.

After everyone arrived, he issued orders without delay and arranged the many complicated matters before the expedition in an orderly manner.

For a moment, the entire palace was immersed in a tense and busy atmosphere.

At the same time, in a room in the backyard of the palace, Chu Zixi was leaning leisurely on a soft and comfortable couch, holding an exquisite picture book in her hands and flipping through it with relish.

Outside the window, heavy snow was falling like goose feathers, and the sky and the earth seemed to be covered by a layer of pure white velvet carpet, which was beautiful beyond words.
