Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 462

"Yes, because it was a birthday gift from my master. He made it himself."

Yun Xiyue cherished it very much and was actually reluctant to let him take it away.

"I understand." Murong Yu embraced her. "Did he teach you archery too?"

The legendary healer, Ghost Hand, was the man who spent the longest time with her.

It's clear she cares about this man.

Logically, since they were master and disciple, he shouldn't have anything to worry about.

However, he felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Ah."

"Ah Yue, do you like him?"

Yun Xiyue looked up at him. "Your Majesty, you're overthinking things again. I only have the feelings of a master for my teacher. He's been missing for over a year now, and I haven't been able to contact him. I'm very worried about his safety."

“Our master is very capable. If he can lend us a hand, then we don’t have to worry about being defeated.”

Murong Yu suppressed his unease for the time being, as this was not the time to be concerned with personal feelings. "Yes, I will send someone to find him."

Because both Sikong Xuanche and Gu Jinchen were injured.

Therefore, a temporary ceasefire has been reached.

"I heard that all three of them were poisoned."

Upon receiving this news, the soldiers were very excited. "Her Majesty the Empress is truly wise; she knew to poison Lin Huangjin. And Her Majesty's archery skills are superb; she was able to wound Sikong Xuanche from such a distance, covering His Majesty and securing victory."

"The arrows were also coated with poison, which is why they were unable to go to the battlefield due to poisoning."

Yun Xiyue did indeed have a backup plan. She originally intended to apply a highly toxic substance, but fearing she might accidentally harm someone, she used a different poison instead.

Because they managed to turn the situation around once again.

Many generals were no longer convinced and began to address her directly as Empress.

Murong Yu was very pleased with this situation.

He then ordered a victory celebration banquet.

"Your Majesty, there is no way to replicate the Empress's arrow. If it is disassembled, I will not be able to restore it."

Murong Yu was surprised to find that it was a weapon that could not be replicated.

"Then don't tear it down, give it to me."

He came to find Yun Xiyue with a weapon in his hand.

At this moment, Zeng Rou blocked Yun Xiyue at the entrance of the camp.

Are you feeling smug now?

Yun Xiyue found her completely baffling. "What's wrong?"

"Hmph, everyone's calling you Empress now. You should be very happy!" Zeng Rou was extremely jealous. She hadn't expected that the new Empress would so easily take her place.

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Of course!"

"Everyone has recognized my abilities, so I am the rightful queen."

The Empress Dowager's request was fulfilled ahead of schedule.

When she returns, she and Murong Yu can get married legitimately.

"You're just lucky. If you're so capable, can you go to the battlefield and kill enemies like me?"

"Don't think you can help Brother Yu defeat the enemy with some clever tricks. What Brother Yu needs is someone like me who can go to the battlefield and kill the enemy," Zeng Rou said unconvinced.

"Then you can't do what I do and deliver supplies to the army camp?"

Zeng Rou's expression changed slightly. "You're just relying on the fact that you have some money."

"But you don't have it!"

"I'm rich, and the Emperor likes me. What can you do about it? If I were you, I should try to please me. Maybe you'd even have a chance to enter the palace and become a concubine."

"If I don't agree, you may not be able to enter the palace."

Zeng Rou trembled with rage, "You bitch!"

"Zeng Rou!"

Murong Yu arrived at some unknown time.

He approached with a gloomy face, and Zeng Rou panicked, not daring to be presumptuous. "Brother Yu, did you hear what she just said?"

"heard it!"

Murong Yu did indeed hear it.

Yun Xiyue's expression changed slightly, and she became somewhat nervous.

"I deliberately provoked her." In front of him, Yun Xiyue still didn't want him to see her less-than-ideal side.
