Cai Yuan let out a long sigh of relief as he heard this. He sent someone to report to Dongfang Ju and the others, while ordering them to wait for the drummer to play as well!

Soon, Dongfang Shan and the others, dressed in dark-red robes, walked out. They knelt down in salute to Dongfang, who had just stepped down from the chariot, then said in unison, "We welcome Your Majesty. Your Majesty, we welcome you with respect!"

Dongfang Ru stepped forward to personally help Dongfang Qing up. "Today is your wedding day, there's no need to be so formal." With that, he continued, "Everyone, please rise."

After a moment of gratitude, Dongfang Yi noticed the unsightly expression on Dong Fang's face and said softly, "Your Majesty's complexion isn't too good, but is the dragon's body not well?"

Dong Fang Qian forced a smile, "No, it's just that something happened. Let's go, let's go in and pay our respects, so as to not miss the auspicious time."

She walked in with the officials in tow, and when they passed by, Xia Yue felt that her collar was a bit stiff and cold, as if something had fallen inside. However, when she felt that something had dropped in front of her, she didn't care too much about it.

After they entered, Xia Yue got up and stuck her tongue out at Dongfang Wenshui's back, murmuring: "If you don't listen to the princess' persuasion, you must marry another woman with a venomous heart and enter the palace. Hmph, I'll have you endure it in the future!"

After returning to the Mu residence, Xia Yue passed the things she bought to Xu Li. Just as she was about to enter to see Mu Qianxue, her back was suddenly stabbed by a hard object.

Strange, for no reason at all, how could there be something in her clothes?

With that in mind, Xia Yue went to her own room and after taking off each of her clothes, she finally found the culprit. It was actually a round, sparkling pearl that was the size of a finger.

This was really strange, how could there be a pearl inside his clothes, and judging from its size and color, its value must be at least a hundred silvers, which was not something an ordinary person could possess. Xia Yue carefully thought back to the place she went to today, but could not figure out where this pearl came from.

She had served Mu Qianxue in the West Chu Imperial Palace for four years, and could be considered to have seen quite a few pearls of this size. In her memories, these pearls were solid, and had some weight, but this pearl in front of her was clearly as light as honey.

After the latter heard about it, he was also filled with doubts. He caught it and carefully looked at it, whether it was its shape or color, it was undoubtedly a pearl, yet it seemed as light as a feather. It was truly strange.

When Mu Qianxue aimed the pearl at the sunlight within the room, she was surprised to discover that the light could penetrate through, which meant … The pearl is hollow.

After discovering this mystery, Mu Qianxue quickly found a way to open the pearl. As expected, it was empty inside, no wonder it was so light and nimble.

It could be used to make jewelry, or ground into powder and applied to the body. It could be used to look good for the skin, but the pearl that was only the size of a finger could only be used to make a complete pearl. This was Mu Qianxue's first time seeing a pearl that could barely be sewn together.

Within the pearl, there was a hidden slip of paper. It was scrawled with words: Yang Guan Valley has failed!

Mu Qianxue quickly figured out the location of Yangguan Valley in her mind. In the next moment, she clutched the note tightly and blurted out, "It's the Qi Nation!"

Although Xia Yue wasn't clear about the borders of the Northern Zhou, she still saw the words on the paper. After contacting Mu Qianxue, how could she not understand it? But yesterday, when King Mu came, didn't he say that the Qi Kingdom was only sending reinforcements?

"I'm afraid that the news about King Mu has lagged behind." Although there weren't any soldiers that informed her, with Mu Qianxue's intelligence, she could roughly guess what happened.

Nineteen was there too. He frowned and said, "Even if the Qi Kingdom is really in danger, we should tell His Majesty or King Rui. Why should we tell the princess? And we should do it in such a way."

Mu Qianxue thought for a moment before replying, "If I'm not wrong, Your Majesty and the others should know." After pausing for a moment, she raised her gaze towards Xia Yue, "I really wonder who put the pearl under your clothes?"

Xia Yue shook her head and said: "Along the way, no one touched this servant, I really can't think of when this pearl was put in."

Nineteen threw her a sidelong glance and said with a sneer, "You don't even know that you have something on you. You're really stupid."

Xia Yue had always been at odds with her. Now that she took the opportunity to mock him, she immediately said in a huff: "If I learned martial arts like you, I would know that there are a few people standing beside me with my eyes closed." When they were at the entrance of the Duke's Palace, this servant felt a chill on the back of my neck, and it was very likely that I had put it in there at that time. However, His Majesty had coincidentally come over at that time, and many people had walked over from the side of this servant.

The light in Mu Qianxue's eyes wavered slightly, but it returned to normal soon after. She once again unfolded the crumpled note and said, "The Qi Nation is approaching in full fury this time, and the messenger probably hopes that I can think of a way to protect the Yang Pass Valley and force the Qi Nation back."

"Princess?" Xia Yue widened her eyes in surprise and blurted out, "Does that person think of the princess as a god? Not to mention that this place is hundreds of miles away from the battlefield, even if she went to the battlefield, she wouldn't be able to force the Qi Kingdom's army back by herself."

19 fingers pressed against his lower jaw, muttering to himself, "I am even more curious, how did that person find out about the princess? Besides the prince and the nine kings, only the few of us know the truth, and the God of Fortune's camp will definitely not leak it out."

Mu Qianxue slowly said, "If the messenger is a member of the God Arena, then this problem can be explained."

"That's true." Nineteen nodded and changed the question. "What are you going to do?"

Mu Qianxue stared at the piece of paper with only five words, "If I didn't make a mistake, besides forcing the Qi Kingdom back, the messenger also wanted me to accomplish one thing."

Under Nineteen and Xia Yue's doubtful gazes, she slowly said: "To help Rui Wangjun!"

"A soldier?" "It is His Majesty's decision to decide who will lead the troops. When the princess is outside the imperial court, she has no right to interfere. Furthermore, even if the princess really thought of a way, the prince would not necessarily listen. He is still misunderstanding right now."

19 For once, he did not go against her. "In terms of the talent of the soldiers, the prince will not lose to anyone, but today, after his wedding, it is only right that His Majesty will not allow him to lead the troops."

"I know." Mu Qianxue took out the hollow pearl and placed it back together, the gaps barely discernible as she said, "That person understood the difficulty in doing so and borrowed the pearl to send a message, telling me to think of a solution."

Xia Yue curled her lips and said, "This is not thinking of a way, it's clearly an act of force."
