Empress, please have some self-respect. I am not your husband.

Ye Bingyun agreed almost without hesitation.

With Lu Feng's strength, he would be worshipped by the royal family in any country, let alone in this small country of Qian. She never thought that Lu Feng could stay in Qian.

Her quick agreement made Lu Feng a little uneasy, so he tentatively asked, "Are you sure you can represent His Majesty?"

"Hmm? Does Young Master Lu perhaps think that His Majesty will not listen to me?"

Ye Bingyun snorted: "His Majesty has always listened to my every word."

Lu Feng thought about it and felt that what the other party said seemed to make sense.

If this were my own woman, even if she wanted the stars, I'd find a way to send her to heaven!

Wait a minute, yesterday this beautiful woman was naked in my arms. Doesn't that count as cheating on that damned Emperor Qian?

Thinking this way, Lu Feng felt much better, and the smile on his face became a bit more carefree.

From this expression, Ye Bingyun immediately understood what he was thinking. Her swan-like neck turned pink, and she said angrily, "Young Master Lu."

"Ahem, Your Highness, what's wrong?" Lu Feng came back to his senses.

Ye Bingyun snorted, "No one else can know about your sneaking into the inner palace last night, otherwise it will be bad for both of us."

"Yes, that's for sure. Don't worry, I won't make things up," Lu Feng assured him.

Ye Bingyun was finally relieved. It was only because she and Emperor Qian were the same person that she was safe. If she were really a favored concubine, then people would really die.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Bingyun asked, "Do I need to bleed myself now as a medicinal ingredient?"

Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "Not for now, let's do it the day after tomorrow. I only have one dose of medicine with me. If I use your blood as a medicinal guide, I may need to prepare several more doses."

"What medicinal herbs does Young Master Lu need for treatment? I will have the Imperial Hospital prepare them."

Lu Feng casually recited a few names, leaving Ye Bingyun completely dumbfounded. After a long while, she awkwardly whispered, "This...this."

Lu Feng asked knowingly, "What's wrong? Can't the Imperial Hospital produce it?"

Ye Bingyun was even more embarrassed and couldn't even speak.

The medicinal herbs Lu Feng used to treat his injuries were prescribed by the world's number one divine physician. Each herb was worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, meaning a single dose of medicine would cost hundreds of thousands of taels.

With Qian Guo's meager resources, how could they possibly be enough for Lu Feng to eat?

Seeing the woman's flustered appearance, Lu Feng laughed and said, "Alright, Your Majesty, I will prepare the medicinal herbs myself, so you don't need to worry."

This guy is deliberately messing with me!

Ye Bingyun rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. "In that case, I'll come to see you again the day after tomorrow."

Lu Feng nodded. Ye Bingyun put on her veil and hat, paused, and then instructed, "Furthermore, please do not reveal my existence to anyone in the court in the future."

Although he didn't understand why, Lu Feng didn't ask. Just as Ye Bingyun was about to leave, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, may I ask your name?"

Ye Bingyun, who had already reached the door, hesitated for a moment before smiling and saying, "Young Master Lu, just call me Bingyun."

This was the first time she had revealed her name to anyone.

"Bingyun?"

After repeating it over and over, Lu Feng sighed with emotion. No wonder so many people throughout history wanted to be emperors, even though the other person looked younger than him, but ended up becoming a concubine in the palace.

I should have become an emperor for fun back then, what a pity.

That damned Emperor Qian!

……

Just after Lu Feng and Ye Bingyun reached an agreement, the Western Chu delegation carried Wei Qingfeng's body back to the state guesthouse.

After the body was properly placed, Yu Ningyan summoned everyone.

On her way back, she realized that Wei Qingfeng was not a citizen of the Qian Kingdom, and she had never heard of him having any grudges against the people of the Qian Kingdom.

They won't just run out at night and get killed for no reason.

Therefore, something must have happened that I don't know about.

Faced with her questioning, the subordinates exchanged glances, which only confirmed Yu Ningyan's suspicions. She sneered twice, "Well, you dare to plot behind my back? Have you all lost your minds?"

Seeing the princess's anger, someone finally mustered the courage to step forward and recount in detail their conspiracy the previous night to have Wei Qingfeng assassinate Lu Feng in order to wash away their shame.

Upon hearing that these guys had assassinated Lu Feng behind her back, Yu Ningyan was furious, but she quickly realized: "So, Wei Qingfeng was killed by assassinating Lu Feng, therefore Lu Feng could be the murderer!"

"This...this is unlikely, Your Highness. Judging from Lu Feng's previous performance, although he was remarkable, he doesn't seem like a top-tier martial arts master at all!"

With Lu Feng's sickly appearance, a top-tier expert? Who would believe that!

"wrong!"

With excitement shining in her beautiful eyes, Yu Ningyan quickly analyzed: "If Lu Feng is not the murderer, then Wei Qingfeng would not have failed! To put it another way, Lu Feng has at least a second-rank expert protecting him! And last night he even asked me about the Jade Dragon Pill, which is something that no ordinary person could know."

If Lu Feng helped the Qian Kingdom for the Jade Dragon Pill, which can cure all poisons and heal all internal injuries!

If Lu Feng needs the Jade Dragon Pill to heal himself or someone else, then everything makes sense!

Yu Ningyan was incredibly excited. Even she wasn't qualified to have a second-rank expert protecting her. If she could get Lu Feng, wouldn't that mean she could get a second-rank expert?

You must know that a second-rank master is a strong person who can move freely in the midst of thousands of troops. If he were to charge into battle on the battlefield, how terrifying would he be?

There are countless martial artists in the world, but no more than fifty can reach the second rank, and even fewer can reach the first rank.

Those who reached the tenth level of the Grandmaster realm are probably all dead by now.

Almost!

She was so close! Yu Ningyan almost went to find Lu Feng, but at the last moment she calmed down.

The people at the State Guesthouse will definitely report to the Qian Kingdom about the grand banquet they held for Lu Feng last night. They said that they invited Lu Feng again right after Wei Qingfeng's death.

Isn't this blatantly telling the people of Qian Kingdom that Wei Qingfeng's death is related to Lu Feng?

She didn't want this coveted opportunity to end up in someone else's hands!

"This matter is now closed. No one is to divulge a single word of it. Furthermore, if anyone dares to lay a hand on Lu Feng again, I will ensure that he is torn to pieces!"

One sentence silenced all the subordinates, who did not know that in the Princess's heart, the twelve cities of Xizhou in Qian Kingdom were no longer important, and the value of Lu Feng had far exceeded that.

"Luckily, only I know these things. Lu Feng, you are mine. I refuse to believe you can remain unmoved by me. There is no man in the world I can't handle!"
