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

Chapter 504

Shen Yue cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger! I have something important to report."

"General Shen, His Majesty is injured and needs to rest. You can speak with General Chu if you need anything." Shadow entered and asked him to leave.

Neither Leng Yan nor Eunuch Fu were present.

Only he could come and serve them.

Murong Yu didn't bother to say another word to him, "Step back!"

Shen Yue's jawline was taut, his face ashen. He bowed slightly, glanced at Yun Xiyue with a hint of bloodshot in his eyes, and then turned and left.

“Ah Yue…”

Yun Xiyue leaned against him and said, "Mmm, let's go to sleep! I'm sleepy."

She didn't seem to care about Shen Yue.

Murong Yu breathed a sigh of relief, lay down with her, and gradually fell asleep, inhaling her delicate fragrance.

I woke up in the evening.

"emperor......"

Hearing Eunuch Fu's sobs, the old servant exclaimed, "I was so scared! I'm so glad you're alright! May Heaven bless His Majesty with boundless blessings!"

Murong Yu got up first, and seeing that the person next to him was still sleeping, he said in a low voice, "Don't make a sound."

Eunuch Fu immediately shut his mouth behind the screen, not daring to go in. "This old servant will go prepare the imperial meal."

"Ah."

Murong Yu had someone bring him memorials, and after preparing paper, brush, ink, and inkstone, he began to get busy. He hadn't reviewed any memorials for several days, and these memorials were all sent from the capital, so he needed to process them quickly.

There are also battle reports from all sides.

He personally reviewed everything.

Yun Xiyue woke up, sat up, and rubbed her eyes. "Your Majesty..."

"Ah Yue, are you hungry?" Murong Yu put down his pen and sat down on the edge of the bed. "I have had some imperial food prepared. Let's eat some together."

Yun Xiyue nodded, and upon seeing the memorial, asked, "Has Eunuch Fu arrived?"

"Yes, Leng Yan is back. Prince Rui and Zeng Rou are imprisoned in the Kyushu City jail."

"With the King of Qin in charge of Jiuzhou City, there shouldn't be any problems for the time being."

Murong Yu pulled her to sit down with him.

Yun Xiyue only learned later that he had made many preparations to end the war, and had secretly sent people to assassinate him in Dongling, Beigong, and Nanqiang.

They spent a lot of money hiring the most skilled assassins from all over the country.

The emperor of the Southern Qiang Kingdom has passed away, and the emperor of the Eastern Ling Kingdom also passed away a few days ago. Gu Jinchen, as one of the princes, also wants to seize the throne, but the Eastern Ling Kingdom has a crown prince, although the crown prince is relatively weak.

Because he held military power, he returned and helped the crown prince secure his throne, thus earning the position of regent.

In the Northern Palace Kingdom, Empress Dowager Beigong was assassinated but survived, though she was unable to wake up.

The person Sikong Xuanche cares about most is his mother, the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager Beigong played a significant role in his ability to secure his throne.

This imperial expedition was also made possible by the support of the Empress Dowager.

Now that Empress Dowager Beigong has fallen, it's not just a matter of losing a very important relative.

The regime in Beigong began to falter.

"How is the situation in the Southern Qiang Kingdom?"

Murong Yu laughed and said, "Five princes are vying for the throne. The Southern Qiang Kingdom has no crown prince or legitimate son, so the throne can only be seized by force, with the strongest prevailing."

Even if Lin Huangjin ascends the throne, he will become someone who has murdered his own brothers. In the court, factional struggles will occur, and those who are not convinced will try to trip him up.

He needs time to deal with the situation and consolidate his throne, leaving him no time to attend to the wars on the borders.

"Don't worry, they're not in the mood to fight me anymore."

"Once I've recovered, I'll begin to deal with them."

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Yes. Then Your Majesty should take a rest."

Eat more.

She served him another bowl of rice.

Murong Yu was both amused and exasperated. "Ah Yue, I'm full, I might not be able to sleep."

I didn't expect him to still be thinking about that matter even while he was injured.

Yunxi Yue didn't know what to say.

After the meal, Yun Xiyue realized that it wasn't quite convenient when she helped him wipe his body.
