Chapter 490 Do you think I can let you go?
"Would you like some midnight snack, my wife?"
"Let's not eat anymore, let's just rest!" Su Yueyao said without wanting to get up.
I haven't had such a good sleep in many days, and I just remember to keep traveling every day.
"Then take a rest!"
The eldest prince took off his outer shirt and went straight to the bed, hugging Su Yueyao. The two fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next morning, the prefect of the border town came early.
Su Yueyao met him, said some polite words, and then met some people from the Sun Mansion. She was busy all day.
In the evening, Urayasu rushed over.
At this time, Pu An was dusty and exhausted. She also saw the beard on Pu An's face. Su Yueyao almost didn't recognize him...
"My dear wife, let me take a shower first. I haven't slept for three or four days." Pu An knew that his image was very bad at the moment, and said with some embarrassment.
"Hurry up and take a shower and rest! I'll have the servants bring the meal directly to your room."
"Thank you, my wife." Pu An bowed and withdrew.
"This is the first time I've seen someone so slovenly standing next to his wife." The eldest prince said with a smile.
"Although I like to look at faces, I like my husband more when he has his heart in his!"
"My dear wife, I have you in my heart, why don't you like me?" Xu Minghe suddenly appeared and said.
"What do you think?" Su Yueyao didn't even look at him and went straight back to the yard.
After Pu An took a shower, he looked a little more visible, but the dark circles under his eyes could not be ignored. When he wanted to talk about the Shi family, she sent him to rest. In fact, she could roughly guess the ending of the Shi family, so it didn't matter whether she knew it or not.
The next morning, Pu An reported the situation of the Shi family to Su Yueyao.
The young magistrate Shi was directly sentenced to beheading, and all the other male members of the Shi family were exiled, while all the women were banished to the women's quarters.
The thousand people in the mountains were taken away by people sent by His Majesty, and Pu An didn't know how to resettle them.
Those in Fengdu will be easier to arrest with the list. I believe His Majesty will investigate further. This is no longer Su Yueyao's business, because she is looking at what Xingchen brought back about the Dongli Kingdom.
In the afternoon, the stars came back.
Except for the Regent's Palace where there were many experts and he did not explore it, he explored all other important places.
"My wife is the regent of Dongli State. Baili Yan has taken charge of the troops of Dongli State's thirteen counties, and almost all the ministers in the court have submitted to her. This time, she is indeed holding a poetry and literature conference in Dongli City, and has also invited other small countries around her."
"This means that Baili Yan's power is almost as high as that of an empress. Why doesn't she just become the empress directly?" Su Yueyao said.
"Empress Baili Rou of Dongli has always been fond of men. She would attend court in previous years, but in the past few months, the court meetings have been presided over by Baili Yan."
"Because the throne was decided by the previous empress, Baili Yan and Baili Rou had a very good relationship when they were princesses. I heard that Baili Rou even saved Baili Yan's life before. Baili Yan also felt that it was inconvenient for her to live in the palace every day as an empress, so she didn't want to directly replace Baili Rou."
"Bai Li Rou is such a cool queen." Su Yueyao said with emotion after listening to it.
"We will leave the border tomorrow and go to Xucheng. There will be messengers waiting outside the city to pick up my wife."
"It takes one day to get from Xucheng to Donglicheng, and the journey is relatively smooth." Xingchen said.
"Okay! Then we'll leave tomorrow. Have you decided on a specific date for the poetry conference?"
"Not yet. There are many masters in Dongli Country, so it is difficult to get information." Xingchen said.
"Have you seen Wei Jihua?"
"I have seen him. Now he is the most valued son of the Regent. I heard that the Regent even disposed of a man in her backyard for him. She is almost willing to grant him any request."
"I wanted to sneak into the Regent's Palace, but the Regent's Palace is very strict and it is almost impossible to insert anyone in."
"You have already found out a lot of information. When we arrive at Dongli Country, I will meet the regent."
She really wanted to meet such a person. If they were in modern times, they would all be big shots that she would never meet.
Everyone was busy packing their luggage in the afternoon. Sun Fu knew that Su Yueyao was leaving tomorrow and wanted to give her a farewell party, but she refused as she didn't want to cause too much trouble.
In this way, Su Yueyao led everyone to leave the border town. After traveling for a whole morning, they arrived at Xucheng and found it very deserted.
The soldiers guarding the city verified Su Yueyao's identity before lowering the bridge.
When Su Yueyao entered Xu City, she met the envoy of Dongli Kingdom.
"Greetings, Miss Su. The meal has been prepared in the city. After the meal, we will set off for Dongli City. The Regent King really wants to see you!"
"Oh! I'm not very hungry now. How about we just skip lunch and continue on our journey?" Su Yueyao said with a smile.
"There is still time for meals," said the messenger with a smile.
Afterwards, everyone had a meal at the largest restaurant in Xu City. Overall, the cooking was average but edible.
After leaving Xu City, Su Yueyao saw people on horseback in the distance and gritted her teeth.
"What happened to my wife? What did you see?"
"See the man who sent us here."
"Ms. Su, didn't you expect that we would meet here this time?" Wei Jihua had already ridden his horse to Su Yueyao's carriage and said with a smile.
"Yes! Mr. Wei, you made me come so far, do you think I can let you go?" Su Yueyao said gritting her teeth.
"Oh? Then Miss Su, please don't let me go. I don't want to let Miss Su go either! My mother dotes on me very much! I didn't expect that she would call you here for me. It's such a pleasant surprise!"
"Really? We are acquaintances now. It would be so rude of me not to come down and talk to you in person in your territory." Su Yueyao stood up and prepared to speak.
Su Yueyao got off the carriage directly, and then everyone else gathered around her.
"What's wrong with Miss Su? The young master has come here specially to pick you up." The messenger walked over and said.
"Yes! Especially, Envoy, your young master and I have some disputes to resolve, so you stand aside." Su Yueyao snorted coldly and spoke directly to her Xingchen and the others.
"All of you go and fight for me."
"Good wife."
As soon as they started, a group of men in black surrounded Wei Jihua.
"Master Wei, if you want to enter my backyard, you can't do that without sparring with my husband! Otherwise, even if the regent of your country suppresses me, I will never marry you even if I die!"
"Ms. Su didn't have these conditions before!"
"There wasn't one before, but there is now, you can choose!"
"Okay then! Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to slap me in the face, otherwise I will be embarrassed." Wei Jihua said.
"Ah..."
Wei Jihua waved his hands, and the moment the man in black disappeared, Xingchen surrounded him. At first, Wei Jihua was able to dodge, but he found that after dodging, he was hit by others even more painfully, so he simply held his head and let them beat him.
"Ouch..."
"..."
"Your Highness, don't you want to vent your anger by throwing a few punches?" Su Yueyao said to the person who had been standing next to her.
"No, just let them fight. It's pretty cool to watch."
The story ends with Wei Jihua lying on the ground begging for mercy. He was indeed not slapped in the face, but there is probably not a single piece of good flesh left on his body.
Su Yueyao was not afraid either, as they all knew their limits. She was just angry about the bumpy ride. In fact, she knew in her heart that the Regent had secretly arranged to meet her, but she just wanted to vent her anger on him.
