Wu Guojun asked with red eyes: "Is she still angry?"
Zhan Yan replied, "I've calmed her down. Uncle, this matter is non-negotiable. Unless you can find a way to make Madam Ye willingly marry you, otherwise, Wanwan will not be able to get over this!"
A trace of sadness flashed in King Wu's eyes. Why did she say the same thing as the Emperor of Sheng Dynasty?
Zhan Yan glanced at him and asked, "Have you gone to see the emperor?"
King Wu shook his head. "I didn't go. It was Minister Min who conveyed my thoughts to me. He was actually quite tempted. He even said that I could give up my own children for her and let the boy from the Ye family inherit the throne of Li Kingdom in the future!"
Zhan Yan couldn't help but exclaim in amazement and shouted, "The emperor has really become successful!"
Even with such a big piece of pie in front of him, he didn't agree directly. This is enough to show that he attaches great importance to the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
He reached out and patted Wu Guojun on the shoulder: "Uncle, you still have a long way to go in pursuing your wife. Otherwise, give up as soon as possible. If you really want to marry, choose a noble lady from an aristocratic family!"
King Wu interrupted without hesitation: "Impossible, I have already chosen her. No matter what, I will marry her. She can only be the queen of my country!"
Zhan Yan frowned and pondered: "Then have you thought about what to do?"
Wu Guojun said: "If you hit me, punch me on the shoulder!"
Zhan Yan immediately understood that this silly uncle was going to use a self-torture trick!
He couldn't help but feel a little worried. Is this the only trick he had? Couldn't he try something new?
Wu Guojun urged impatiently: "What are you waiting for? Beat him up!"
Zhan Yan frowned and refused: "No, I promised Wanwan that I can't get involved in this matter of yours. If you go find Min Xiang, he will definitely beat you up!"
King Wu didn't embarrass him, but instead instructed him, "Okay, if you don't want to participate, then don't get involved, but don't get in the way of me pursuing my wife. If I'm able to get her to agree, no one is allowed to sabotage me. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Zhan Yan nodded: "It can be done!"
King Wu didn't hesitate any longer, turned around and left quickly.
Zhan Yan was very curious about how King Wu could get Madam Ye to agree to his request.
The next day, Mrs. Ye came to visit with generous gifts.
Lin Yiwan was chatting with her in the tea room. She had just taken a sip of tea when she saw Ling'er coming in with a worried look on her face and reporting, "Madam, please go and see! The king is suddenly vomiting blood!"
Lin Yiwan was so frightened that she almost dropped the tea bowl in her hand. What was this guy doing?
Madam Ye immediately stood up and asked, "Is it because of the internal injuries from being hit by the carriage yesterday? Wanwan, let's go over and take a look."
Lin Yiwan subconsciously said, "Don't worry about him, he's just pretending!"
Madam Ye spoke nervously, "As the king of a country, how could he possibly pretend to be injured? Besides, he's vomiting blood!"
Lin Yiwan secretly bit her tongue. She couldn't just tell Wu Guojun all his dirty thoughts, right?
She didn't want Zhan Yan to get involved in this matter, but she couldn't sabotage it openly, for fear of being hated by King Wu. After all, he was her mother-in-law's younger brother.
Just when I was in trouble, the person disappeared from my sight.
Her eyes widened in surprise, and she heard Ling'er say, "Mrs. Ye has already rushed over to visit King Wu!"
Lin Yiwan gritted her teeth and said, "Alright, let him succeed. Let's see how he finishes this stunt!"
Wu Guojun was accommodated in the guest room in the east courtyard. When he heard that Madam Ye was coming to visit, he was so excited that he almost fell off the bed.
He subconsciously called out, "Someone, help my king tidy up his appearance!"
But after a moment, he realized that if he had to look miserable, the more haggard he was, the better.
He didn't let anyone in at the moment, but leaned weakly on the brocade pillow.
When Madam Ye walked in gracefully, King Wu's eyes immediately lit up.
She was wearing a green dress, which made her look like a lotus emerging from the water.
To avoid suspicion, she was followed by a dignified old nanny and two dignified little maids.
After she was brought in, she bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, King Wu!"
He tried his best to suppress the excitement in his throat and said in a hoarse voice: "Please stand up!"
Madam Ye took out the gift she had prepared long ago and said, "This is the hundred-year-old mountain ginseng I prepared. I don't know if it will please the king, but it is my way of expressing my apology after all!"
King Wu quickly spoke up, "Thank you, Madam Ye, for coming all this way in person. I will certainly treasure your kindness!"
He took the gift from the maid and placed it on the pillow with a look of cherishment on his face.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became stagnant, which made Mrs. Ye feel a little embarrassed.
She lowered her head slightly and said softly, "I still have to go give Wanwan a thank-you gift, so I won't disturb the king any longer. Goodbye!"
Seeing her walking out, Wu Guojun immediately stopped her: "Madam Ye, wait a minute!"
She turned back in surprise: "Is there anything else, Your Majesty?"
Just a moment of looking back made King Wu's heart beat faster, especially the wound, which also felt hot.
After thinking for a while, he finally spoke: "Madam Ye, could you please send the servants away? My Lord has something to say to you alone!"
A trace of panic flashed across Madam Ye's face. She interrupted without hesitation: "Your Majesty, please don't joke. If you have anything to say, it's the same in front of my nanny and maid. Don't give people a chance to talk!"
King Wu understood that she was concerned about the rules of separation between men and women, but this was the only chance he could fight for himself!
He doesn't want to miss it!
He could only ask, "Young Madam, are you willing to go to Li Country with our monarch?"
Madam Ye stared at him in disbelief as if she was frightened. She obviously did not expect that the dignified King Wu would ask such an out-of-bounds question.
The old nanny next to her was also startled, and she subconsciously protected Madam Ye behind her.
Wu Guojun quickly explained: "Don't misunderstand me, I'm not a pervert. I just want to ask if Madam Ye has any plans to remarry."
Madam Ye finally reacted. Her pretty face was immediately filled with rage. She interrupted sternly, "Lord Wu, be careful with your words. I am the young lady of the Duke of Huguo's mansion. How can you be so rude to me?"
Wu Guojun's face turned pale with anxiety. He said hurriedly: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I just don't know how to say it!"
Madam Ye said without hesitation: "You don't have to say it. The monarch's status is noble. Although my husband is dead, I am still a wife of the Ye family. I will not remarry, and I will not go to Li Country. I hope that this is the end of the story. The monarch should not do anything to force me!"
She ignored King Wu and turned around and left quickly.
Looking at her back, King Wu felt uncomfortable in his heart!
He messed it up!
He really didn't mean to anger her!
Madam Ye walked around in the garden for a while before she calmed down her confused thoughts. At this moment, she felt a little guilty for being too tough just now. Would it affect the peace talks between the two countries?
