After being demoted, my 300,000-strong army trampled the imperial city!

After racking his brains for a long time, Chen Futu finally came up with a way to deal with the disappearance of the money in the warehouse. So he got up and wrote an IOU to Yu Qian and asked Dian Wei to deliver it. He did not explain the reason in detail, only saying that he would definitely pay it back within three months.

Liu Longyue, standing to the side, chuckled as she adjusted her robes, "How amusing, that the King would actually owe such a large sum of money."

"What are you laughing at? Sign it."

Chen Futu tossed another IOU over.

Liu Longyue picked up the IOU and examined it carefully. Her face immediately darkened. "Your Majesty, I have no money."

This is her debt bill of five million taels. Chen Futu is serious with her and makes her sign and put her fingerprint on it.

"Otherwise, do you think I'll make trouble for you and refuse to pay back the money, so you'll have to pay it back yourself?"

Chen Futu said irritably.

Liu Longyue gritted her teeth, silently signed her name, and Chen Futu even pressed her handprint on it. From then on, she, the dignified princess of Beiwu, became someone who owed a mountain of debt. Chen Futu even calculated the interest for her, which was frighteningly high.

"Remember, I'm only giving you three months. If you can't pay back the money, you'll regret it."

"Whatever."

Liu Longyue pouted and went to lie down on the bed.

She's completely oblivious to everything now; she'd rather use that free time to think about the Northern Martial Arts Academy.

Looking at her like this, Chen Futu suddenly wanted to laugh. Actually, looking at her now, she was actually quite cute...

The following morning, Liu Longyue arrived at the royal court with the Grand Wizard.

Chen Futu dismissed all the servants and asked, "Great Wizard, you deceived my queen and even put a sword to my neck. Give me a reason not to kill you."

The high priest knelt there, his heterochromatic eyes, concealed by the ghost mask, appearing dark and unsettling. "I have no objection to whatever Your Majesty decides to do."

"You're not afraid of death, but what about your people? Forget about the key," Chen Futu said coldly, looking at the memorial.

Upon hearing this, Liu Longyue's expression became complicated. She was angry that the Grand Wizard had deceived her, but that did not mean she wanted the Grand Wizard to die in Dragon City. So she said, "Your Majesty, why not give the Grand Wizard a chance and let her return to Beiwu to deal with Empress Dugu? If Beiwu is not at peace, it will also benefit you."

“You are the princess of Beiwu, and you hope that the great shaman will cause chaos in Beiwu to benefit me. I do not believe a word of that.”

Chen Futu rolled his eyes at Liu Longyue.

This woman was so devoted to scheming for Beiwu, even going so far as to defile herself. Now, because of the Great Wizard's betrayal, she's going to abandon what she's always protected? You're kidding me!

Liu Longyue said solemnly, "The Grand Wizard holds an extremely high position in Beiwu. Killing her would be pointless. It would be better to let her go back, since you won't suffer any loss anyway."

"Great Wizard, what do you plan to do after you return?" Chen Futu asked seriously, putting down the memorial.

The high priest said in a low voice, "Of course, we will try to find a way to rescue our people."

"I can let you go, and even arrange for someone to assist you, but from now on you will be a person of the Northern Frontier. Before you leave, you will need to give a pledge of allegiance."

What does Your Majesty mean?

"I need you to leave with the delegation, to leave the territory of Daqian east of Yangguan, and to take those two playboys with you. I will spread the news that the two young masters were given to Beiwu as a gift. The east is Daqian's defensive territory, and they will definitely take action. I want Yemo and those two Xiantian to die on Daqian's territory, and then your mission will be complete."

Chen Futu's voice wasn't loud, but it sounded like a thunderclap to Liu Longyue's ears: "Does the young master want to add fuel to the fire on the eastern battlefield?"

Currently, Beiwu and Daqian are still in a standoff. If things escalate at this critical juncture, and Yemo and the two powerful figures die, the Grand Tutor will surely be furious. At that time, Beiwu is very likely to launch an attack on the pass, and the war between the two countries will be another bloody catastrophe.

"Hehe, they're all scheming against me. What's wrong with me retaliating slightly? Don't forget, you're now the Queen of the Northern Frontier."

Chen Futu was very dissatisfied with Liu Longyue's attitude.

It's an honor for that idiot like Yamo to die. He's done his job well, and he's made the most of his potential before he died.

Liu Longyue gave a helpless bitter smile, then looked at the Great Wizard.

The high priest raised his head. "Will the king really help me save my people?"

"I will have the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Star Gazer arrange for people to accompany you in secret. They are in this line of work, so rescuing the person for you will not be a problem. After everything is over, you will disperse the Embroidered Uniform Guard and secret agents throughout Beiwu. I will use you and them to remotely control the real-time situation of Beiwu."

As he spoke, Chen Futu stood up and came to the Great Wizard. “I know you are determined to maintain the dignity of Beiwu. Unfortunately, the Emperor of Beiwu still needs the Dugu family to assist him. If something happens, he will not stand on your side. You can consider whether you want to agree.”

"I promise."

The great wizard had no choice.

As for Yemo, who is dead, he is dead. How can he be more important than her people? As for the war between the two countries, Beiwu's military strength is obviously superior. If a real war breaks out, it is even possible that they can break through the passes of Daqian's defense line.

Chen Futu sneered: "If you can really bite a hole in the defense line of Daqian, I have no objection. As long as you don't invade the northern border, you can do whatever you want."

“Alright, then it’s settled. Your Majesty, please gather the men and prepare. I will return to the delegation now and inform them of the departure.”

After the high wizard finished speaking, he got up and left.

Liu Longyue watched her retreating figure, hesitant to speak. Chen Futu said disdainfully, "What, you want to leave too? You can pack your things and get out of here."

"Your Majesty is joking. I am now your woman, how could I possibly go back?" Liu Longyue's smile was somewhat forced.

“You’re not completely stupid. The situation in the Northern Frontier is unclear right now. You can’t kill me to become the Queen Mother of the Northern Frontier, so you won’t gain any advantage. If you go back, you’ll have nowhere to settle down. So of course you have to stay in the Northern Frontier. Staying by my side is the safest option right now. I hope you always remember your identity. As long as you’re in the Northern Frontier, you’ll be the Queen of the Northern Frontier. Once the matter of the Great Wizard is resolved, she will still be yours. In that sense, I’ve helped you out again.”

"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. I will never forget this favor."

Liu Longyue lowered her head slightly.

Chen Futu lifted her snow-white chin, forcing her to look up. "Let me guess, at that time, you will discard your identity as the Princess Consort of the Northern Frontier like trash, and go back to plot to become the Empress of the Northern Martial Kingdom, right?"

"I don't..."

A hint of panic flashed in Liu Longyue's eyes.

She didn't understand why Chen Futu could see through her thoughts. Now she really had no intention of killing Chen Futu and taking control of the Northern Frontier. With Qin Liangyu around, it was unrealistic for her to become the matriarch and rule the Northern Frontier. The only thing she could do was to use the Great Wizard to eliminate Empress Dugu, then return to Beiwu to seize power, become the Empress of Beiwu, and then lead her people south to sweep across the Central Plains.

"Liu Longyue, Liu Longyue, aren't you tired of all your scheming?"

Chen Futu released her chin, sneered, and returned to his throne.
