"Princess is too serious." Dong Fang Hui stood up and personally helped her up, "Even though we sent Jiang Yue there, the real person who saved Princess was Seventh Brother. We don't deserve this courtesy."

"Both Your Majesty and King Rui have saved Qianxue's life, and this favor will never be forgotten."

"The most important thing is that the Princess is safe." After pausing for a moment, Dong Fang Hui continued, "Has Princess ever heard of the name 'Artemisia annulata Lam'?"

Mu Qian Xue's body slightly shrank, her eyes revealing shock. After a long while, she said with a slight tremble: "I have heard, it's a close guard army under Xiao Ruo Ao's command. They only listen to Xiao Ruo Ao's orders, their movements are mysterious. I helped him kill quite a few people; when we were escaping West Chu this time, we were also chased by Artemisia annulata Lam. Fortunately, King Rui's men were strong and were on par with Artemisia annulata Lam, hence we were able to escape with difficulty. "

"Who are these people from the Artemisia annulata Lam?" When he asked that question, a glint flashed past Dong Fang Hui's eyes.

It is said that they are all martial artists, and only Cao Bing Cheng was able to recruit them. As for the specifics, there is no way to know, Xiao Ruo Ao was very cautious of me and never told me about it, and only when he accidentally leaked it to me did I find out.

"If I had discovered Xiao Ruo Ao's bad intentions earlier, then this wouldn't have happened. Nanzhao … And those innocent civilians, they were all killed by me! " As he spoke till here, Mu Qian Xue couldn't bear the regret in his heart. He covered his face with his hands and sobbed softly.

Dong Fang Hui sighed lightly and tenderly passed the kernels over. "Chu Di has calculated so why would he let Princess find out about it?"

Mu Qian Xue wiped her tears, and said with a choked of sobs: "Actually, for the past four years, I have had too much trust in him, and thought that she wouldn't be that kind of person. In the end …" As she spoke till here, she couldn't help but shed tears. It was only after a long time that she stopped; the kernels was already more than half wet.

When Mu Qian Xue's mood had calmed down, Dong Fang Hui changed the topic. "Are you used to living in Old Seven Palaces?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I have taken good care of Qianxue and third brother." Swallowing the Nanzhao is only the first step of his plan. What he wants is the entire world, and the moment he digests the Nanzhao, the Dazhou will become his next goal. He absolutely cannot leave this person alive. "

Dong Fang Hui had a strange expression on his face. He stared at Mu Qian Xue for a while, then said: "Princess's intention is, you want us to take action against you?"

"The West Chu has just taken over the Nanzhao, so their internal affairs are unstable, it is the perfect time for the Your Majesty to attack. With a million strong army, it is not difficult to take over the West Chu, but once they take control of the West Chu, it would be equivalent to controlling two countries. At that time, the Dazhou's strength will rise greatly, and the Qi and the Tung Ling will not be able to do much." Although she tried her best to suppress her words, there was still a trace of urgency in her voice. Her slender fingers had been twisted until they turned white.

Seeing that Dong Fang Hui did not speak for a long time, Mu Qian Xue then said, "What Qianxue has said, are all true. Xiao Ruo Ao is truly a greedy wolf, Your Majesty …"

"I understand." Dong Fang Hui interrupted her, "Dazhou and Nanzhao live side by side, and we have long heard of the benevolent and virtuous name of Emperor Zhao. When we found out that the West Chu was going to attack the Nanzhao, we wanted to send troops to assist him, but unfortunately, the Qi and the Tung Ling have always been eyeing our Dazhou covetously, so the moment we send out their forces, the two countries would attack from the sides. At that time, not only would we not be able to help the Nanzhao, even the Dazhou would suffer."

Mu Qian Xue anxiously replied: "It won't, their country's strength is far inferior to Dazhou's, so they won't be so impudent; On the other hand, Xiao Ruo Ao, once he completely controls Nanzhao, he will definitely become a thorn in the side for Your Majesty and his, and will far surpass his and his, don't be careless."

"I naturally understand the painstaking efforts of Princess, but at the moment, it is truly not the right time." Without waiting for Mu Qian Xue to speak, Dong Fang Hui continued: "Princess rest assured, we will definitely be on our guard against West Chu. When the time comes, we will immediately attack; as long as we are here, Xiao Ruo Ao's ambition will not succeed."

"But …"

Without waiting for Mu Qian Xue to finish, Dong Fang Hui continued, "Princess is here to offer birthday congratulations to Mother and we summoned him here. She must be very tired, Huai En, escort Princess out of the palace."

Hearing that, Mu Qian Xue immediately became anxious, "Your Majesty, Xiao Ruo Ao is too ambitious, once he changes into the climate, he will definitely harm Dazhou, you have to be on guard."

Huai En stepped forward and invited them, "Princess, please."

Seeing that Dong Fang Hui was not paying attention to him, Mu Qian Xue bowed and followed him out. When they all disappeared from his sight, Dong Fang Hui exhaled lightly, and said with disappointment: "The so called Princess Xuan Ji, is only so so."

Lv Yi, who was disguised as a palace maid, walked to his side and slowly said. "Beautiful is fine, but it's a pity that he's a wooden beauty."

"I originally thought that if she really had the talent to be the emperor's tutor, then she would stay by my side and assist me in calming the world down. What a pity."

There is only one in a million who is proficient in the arts, zither, chess, art, and the four books and five scriptures. Princess Xuan Ji has lived in the palace ever since he was young, and has lived like a prince.

Dong Fang Hui let out a long sigh, "As expected, our expectations are too great. As you said, the Emperor Master's talents are one in a million."

"Listening to what she said just now, the reason Chu Di was able to ascend to the throne probably because of Cao Bing Cheng. It has nothing to do with her, at most he was only able to borrow some of her background." Saying that, Lv Yi laughed coldly, "Such a mediocre talent, yet he thinks he is clever, to actually try to instigate the Your Majesty to send troops to kill him, to avenge her, he is truly overestimating himself."

said coldly: "She is indeed a little stupid, but what she said is not completely unreasonable. West Chu must be eliminated, but not now;

After Lv Yi agreed, he asked again, "Have the people from Seventh Brother been arranged for?"

"Better." After saying that, Dong Fang Hui continued, "Other than that, have you spread the news of Tung Ling?"

Lv Yi immediately replied: "According to Your Majesty's instructions, this servant has already sent a message to the people of Qi, Chu, and Yan. After pausing for a moment, she continued, "This servant has found a few suspected Tung Ling people in the city.
