The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 396 Domination and Love
In addition to Emperor Suining, those who attended the banquet included Queen Hasna and Shusha's eldest prince Asek. Asek had been staying in the palace for the past two days. Chu Yunxi had heard from Xiao Mubei that Xiao Shan had sent an envoy there early that morning, saying that Alia had already acknowledged it, and the person who paid money to have Xianle send to kill Asek was none other than Shusha's second prince Uruksu.
It seems that Asek will be busy after returning to Shusha. Two princes want to kill him, and the third prince is eyeing him covetously. Asek's path to the throne is still difficult.
However, since ancient times, the road to becoming an emperor has never been easy. If Asek wants to reach a high position, this is also a necessary process.
The guests and hosts had a great time. Several men were drinking, while Hasna and Chu Yunxi were talking quietly. Hasna first thanked Chu Yunxi. She had been with the envoy for a day and had found out the traitors and assassins in the envoy, so that the eldest prince had no worries. Chu Yunxi smiled and said, "I was lucky. I happened to meet Master Xiaoshan who was cleaning up the house, so I found out the assassin by the way. Otherwise, it would not be so easy."
Hasna held a glass of sake, clinked it with Chu Yunxi, took a sip and said, "Yunxi, don't be so modest. My eldest brother told me that even if Master Xiaoshan didn't go, you would have found the mark on the assassin's body. It would only be a matter of time before you found the assassin. It's just that my eldest brother was lucky to meet Master Xiaoshan, so he was able to save a lot of interrogation effort."
Chu Yunxi had also drunk quite a bit of wine and felt dizzy, but her mind was still clear. She said, "The eldest prince is truly destined to be the emperor. He has managed to turn danger into safety several times in a row. He is truly a noble man, so don't worry. Although his path is difficult, he will eventually reach a place where flowers bloom after overcoming all obstacles."
Hasna's lips curled up, "Yunxi, what you said is very good. I really like chatting with you. It's a pity that you are too busy. You can't come to the palace to chat with me a few times a year. You don't know how bored I am every day."
Chu Yunxi laughed, "How can the Queen be bored when she has to manage such a large harem?"
Hasna looked at the men drinking. No one was paying attention to the two of them, so she whispered, "Yunxi, you don't know, after the mission is over, I will arrange a beauty pageant for His Majesty. I feel angry just thinking about it, but I have to do it. I have to pretend to be generous. This queen is too frustrated."
Talent show? Chu Yunxi was stunned, and suddenly she felt guilty. If Xiao Zili and Hasna hadn't shouldered the heavy burden of Jiangshan for her and Xiao Mubei, she would probably be the one with the headache today. If she was asked to personally select Xiao Mubei...
Chu Yunxi couldn't bear it just thinking about it.
This queen was indeed not something she could do, so she put down her wine glass, held Hasna's hand, and said guiltily: "As long as His Majesty's heart is always with you, no matter how many beauties she has in her harem, they are just decorations."
Hasna smiled bitterly, "But men... who can guarantee that his heart will stay with you forever?"
Chu Yunxi couldn't answer. She only knew that if her man's heart was no longer with her, she would dump him without hesitation. It is better to be alone than to be with the wrong person. This is her attitude towards relationships. But she couldn't say these words to Hasna.
Everyone has their own choices. How many women have to swallow their anger and share their husbands with others. This is the drawback of the old society. Therefore, in this era, it is even more precious to find someone who can spend the rest of your life with you and be devoted to you.
The topic had reached a helpless point, and the two women began to drink one cup after another. The moon was at its zenith, and everyone was drunk, but the Queen and Chu Yunxi were the drunkest.
Xiao Mubei supported Chu Yunxi and stumbled out of the palace gate. Wu Lingqi also followed behind staggeringly. The super luxurious carriage stopped at the palace gate. Bai Yu and Hei Mu were waiting there together. When they saw that the three of them were walking unsteadily, they hurriedly drove the carriage closer and jumped off.
Chu Yunxi leaned on Xiao Mubei, still talking incoherently, "Xiao... Mubei, if you take a concubine, then I will definitely divorce you, remember? You... are not allowed to take a concubine, and you are not allowed to have a concubine."
Xiao Mubei's face was flushed. Although he was drunk, his eyes were still clear. He smiled and kept saying, "Okay, okay, I won't take a concubine or a concubine. I will only have you."
Bai Yu and Hei Mu were a little startled and automatically ignored what they heard. They put down the footstool and asked Xiao Mubei to help Chu Yunxi get on. They saw that Chu Yunxi was holding a bright yellow imperial edict in her hand, which fell off as she got on the carriage. Hei Mu quickly picked it up and took a glance. He saw that it was the imperial edict to appoint Chu Yunxi as the queen of Prince Dingbei.
It seems that from today on, Chu Yunxi is finally the legitimate wife of Prince Dingbei, and Hei Mu is secretly happy.
The three of them got on the carriage, and Bai Yu and Hei Mu drove out of the palace and went to the embassy to see Wu Lingqi off first.
Wu Lingqi was also drunk, he kept smiling, and said: "My Lord, I didn't expect that the princess sister would be so overbearing that she wouldn't let you take a concubine. Isn't it normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines?"
Xiao Mubei shook his head and said, "It's not like that. Yunxi doesn't let me take a concubine, and I'm very happy. This proves that she values me and is unwilling to share me with others, just like I can't share her with other men. So, this is not overbearing, this is... love, do you understand?"
"Love... is this what it is?" Wu Lingqi seemed to understand, but when he saw Xiao Mubei hugging Chu Yunxi carefully, fearing that she would get bumped, and letting her sleep in his arms in the most comfortable position, he seemed to understand a little bit, love is probably to treat that person as a treasure.
After sending Wu Lingqi back to the embassy, Xiao Mubei solemnly instructed Bai Yu Hei Mu, "After returning to the palace, drive the carriage to the yard, and you can go and rest. Don't worry about us."
Baiyu Heimu responded and, according to Xiao Mubei's instructions, drove the carriage to the courtyard of Dingbei Palace and parked it. Then the two of them left quietly, and the surroundings gradually fell into silence. Xiao Mubei hugged Chu Yunxi and slowly lay down on the golden velvet carpet of the carriage, letting her rest her head on his arm. He listened to her even breathing, his heart beating fast.
For some reason, he always fell asleep quickly after drinking in the past, but tonight, although he felt a little dizzy, he did not feel sleepy at all. Thinking that Emperor Suining had issued an imperial decree to appoint Chu Yunxi as his concubine before the banquet tonight, and that Chu Yunxi was finally his legitimate concubine, he was so excited that he could not calm down, as if his long-cherished wish had finally come true, but it seemed a little unreal.
