The little cannon fodder kept releasing melons, and people lined up to eat melons

"Your Majesty, if you tell lies too many times, you will start to believe them, right?"

Murong Jingchu was a little annoyed. He said, "Qian Ning, what do you mean by this?"

Song Qianning met Murong Jingchu's eyes and said, "I have contacted my elder brother, and I know everything about the battle in Beilin. Your Majesty! Is there no honesty between you and me anymore?"

Murong Jingchu was a little flustered. He said, "Qian Ning, listen to me. It's not like that. You know, this is the best opportunity. As long as we seize this opportunity and make a concerted effort, we will be able to take Bei Lin into our pocket soon..."

"And then? After destroying Beilin, does the emperor still want Jiyuan Kingdom? Doesn't the emperor know that Jiyuan now has the support of all the surrounding small countries and is as powerful as Xuanyue Kingdom? Do you have to insist on doing it alone? What are you doing this for? Life is only a few decades, so what can you do even if you get the whole world?"

Murong Jingchu was full of ambition and said excitedly: "Qian Ning, I said that I would unify this world and give it to you. I want you to share this world with me for eternity..."

"I don't want it at all. Just consider it as my plea to you, stop! Accept the request of Emperor Beilin for peace, cease fire, and let my eldest brother come back! You hid the news of my second brother and grandmother's death and my father's death from me, and even made me miss the funeral of my grandmother and second brother. Now there are only my mother and eldest sister-in-law in the mansion. Please let my eldest brother come back!"

"I can't bear to see you sad, so I'm hiding this from you. This is for your own good, do you understand?"

"Will you not be sad if you keep it from me? In the end, you will only make me miserable. It's like you insist on invading other people's homes, but you say you want to give them to me. But I don't like you doing this at all. If you really want to be good to me, please ask the emperor to stop the war immediately and order my elder brother to return to the capital..."

Murong Jingchu put his hands on Song Qianning's shoulders and said tactfully: "This is the only chance. I have waited so long for such an opportunity..."

"Your so-called opportunity was obtained at the cost of my second brother and father's lives. Do you have to see a river of blood before you are satisfied?"

Song Qianning pushed Murong Jingchu away excitedly and yelled at him. She didn't understand why he had become like this, so paranoid and so ambitious.

"Qian Ning, believe me, this war will be over soon. As long as you take down Bei Lin, I will definitely let your elder brother return to Xuan Yue Kingdom in glory..."

Song Qianning remembered that Murong Jingchu might not be able to make sense now, so she took a deep breath and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"If the emperor refuses to agree to peace talks, then I will have no choice but to explain to all the civil and military officials that Bei Lin has actually advocated a truce and peace talks. I have also told my third brother that I will no longer provide any money to the royal family. When your Majesty stops, I will let my third brother recover..."

Song Qianning was afraid that Murong Jingchu would punish her third brother because he cut off the financial supply to the national treasury, so she took the initiative to say that this was her idea.

Anyway, as long as my eldest brother and mother stay away from the capital with my eldest sister, the emperor can come and settle accounts with her later. The worst that can happen is that she will die.

Murong Jingchu couldn't believe that Song Qianning would go against him. He said, "Qianning, you and I are husband and wife. I thought you should understand me the most. Shouldn't you support me wholeheartedly? Why do you do this?"

"Although you and I are husband and wife, it seems that not only do I not understand you, but you also don't understand me. You want power and the earth to be yours, but I just want my family to live in peace."

"What's wrong with power? The world is in your hands. Whoever you want to be safe can be safe. Isn't this the benefit of power?"

"In this case, there is nothing more to say between the Emperor and me. I believe you have also received the letter from my third brother. Think carefully about what I just said! I will return to Fengyi Palace and wait for your news. If it is not news of a ceasefire, then you don't have to set foot in Fengyi Palace..."

After Song Qianning finished speaking, she no longer looked at Murong Jingchu. She simply stood up and walked quickly out of the Yangxin Palace.

Murong Jingchu, who was sitting on the ground, looked at Song Qianning's receding back and felt very lost. Why didn't she understand his feelings? ?

He just wanted to realize that prosperous era. It didn't matter. Although Qian Ning resented him now, after everything was settled, he would be the one to accompany her for the next few decades.

As for those absent family members, they will always become memories and disappear in the wind. In the end, only he can accompany her all the way.

After thinking this through, he strode out of the Yangxin Palace. It seemed that Song Chengyi had too much.

Yaohua Palace...

"The Emperor has arrived..."

Dugu Yan heard the voice and hurried to the door to greet him. She bowed gracefully and said, "Your Majesty, may you live forever..."

"No gift..."

After Murong Jingchu finished speaking, he walked straight past him and went in. Dugu Yan was not annoyed, she smiled and turned around to follow him.

Dugu Yan took the teacup from the maid, handed it to Murong Jingchu, and said, "Your Majesty, please have some tea..."

Murong Jingchu took the teacup, brushed away the tea leaves in the cup with the tea lid, and took a sip of tea.

Dugu Yan said at the right time: "Your Majesty, what troubles have you encountered? Tell me about it, and I can help you share some of your worries."

Murong Jingchu put down the teacup and glanced at Eunuch Liu. Receiving the emperor's gaze, Eunuch Liu immediately presented the letter to the imperial concubine.

Dugu Yan took the letter and read it quickly. At the end, the corners of her mouth slightly raised. She felt indescribably happy. God was helping her.

Dugu Yan calmly folded the letter and returned it to Eunuch Liu, then picked up a fork, picked up a piece of watermelon and handed it to the emperor.

"The third son of the Song family is too arrogant. Without the support of the emperor, how could he have made so much money in such a short period of time and become the richest businessman in the world? Now he dares to threaten the emperor. He deserves to die..."

Murong Jingchu took the fork from Dugu Yan's hand, took a bite of the watermelon, felt it was bland, and threw it back into the plate.

"Is there any way for the Imperial Concubine to transfer Song Chengyi's property in Xuanyue Country to my hands?"

Dugu Yan's beautiful face was full of smiles. She said, "There is a way, but it depends on whether the emperor is willing to do it."

"tell me the story……"

"In theory, the entire Xuanyue Kingdom belongs to you, Your Majesty, not to mention those industrial shops. However, Song Chengyi is here after all. If you just take over by force, the world will definitely criticize Your Majesty..."

"If I hadn't considered these, why would I ask you to find a solution..."

"So! If Song Chengyi disappears from this world, Your Majesty, as his nominal brother-in-law, will help him take over all his industries. Isn't that legitimate? Not only the industries of Xuanyue Country, but also the newly acquired Dongling and Moses countries, which also have a lot of his industries. At that time, these will all be yours, Your Majesty..."

Murong Jingchu pondered for a long time, then stood up and said, "Nonsense..."

After Murong Jingchu finished speaking, he left Yaohua Palace without any extra glances.

Dugu Yan stood up and saw him off. After seeing the emperor leave, Yan Yang said with some regret: "The emperor still disagrees with the master's suggestion. Doesn't that mean we can't take action against Song Chengyi directly?"

Dugu Yan laughed so hard that her body shook with joy, her tone filled with endless happiness: "Who told you that the emperor disagrees?"
