Yun Chu's eyes were very complicated.
Although the Dongling Kingdom is a small country, its strength is not weak. Some of the surrounding island countries have been annexed, and its military strength is at least two to three hundred thousand.
However, the emperor only arranged for 80,000 people to attack Dongling.
No matter how good Chu Yi is in his military skills, it will be difficult for him to get an advantage from the Dongling Kingdom.
There are only three days left.
Yunchu immediately wrote a letter to Concubine Yun.
The next morning, Concubine Yun temporarily arranged a flower-viewing banquet.
It is the time of early summer, when all kinds of flowers are blooming, and butterflies are flying in the imperial garden, making it very lively.
"The emperor has been ill recently, and the palace and harem are all gloomy. I am holding a flower viewing banquet at this time to let everyone relax." Concubine Yun said with a smile, "The imperial doctor said that the emperor just contracted the wind and cold, and it is nothing serious. Take good care of yourself, it will be fine after a while, no one needs to worry."
The eldest princess said: "Thanks to Ziyue for taking care of me, so that the emperor can recover so quickly."
The eldest princess, who is the same mother as the current emperor, also has a natural affection for the Su family, so she pulled Su Ziyue to sit next to her and talk.
Su Ziyue pursed her lips and said sheepishly: "These are what Ziyue should do."
"Princess Zhuang is too self-effacing." Yunchu said with a smile on his face, "I have a younger sister who is as old as Princess Zhuang. When I see Princess Zhuang, I feel like I am seeing my younger sister."
Su Ziyue was even more embarrassed: "Then I will boldly call the Crown Princess my sister."
"This is the osmanthus cake I made by myself. Although it is the dried osmanthus left over from last year, it tastes very good." Yun Chu picked up the osmanthus on the plate and handed it over, "Sister Ziyue, want to try it?"
Concubine Yin nodded: "This osmanthus cake is really good. When I go back, Chu'er will tell Grandma Guo the recipe and I will make some too."
Su Ziyue hesitated.
Her husband told her not to eat anything handed to her outside, nor to drink tea outside, for fear that the bugs in her body would die.
However, with so many pairs of eyes on her, the Crown Princess probably wouldn't hide poison in the sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
If she fell in front of everyone, the Crown Princess would certainly not be able to escape blame.
Thinking of this, Su Ziyue took the sweet-scented osmanthus cake and took a small bite: "Thank you, Princess Princess."
I just swallowed a mouthful of sweet-scented osmanthus cake.
She suddenly felt a violent surge in her chest, her heart spasmed, and she couldn't move her hands or feet.
But it was only for a moment.
In the blink of an eye, she recovered, as if the discomfort just now was just her illusion.
"Sister Ziyue, is it delicious?"
Yun Chu asked with a smile.
Wu Yun said that when the Zi Gu is killed, the host will sense it. It seems that the first Zi Gu is already dead.
Su Ziyue looked at Yun Chu's smiling face and thought to herself that she must have thought too much just now.
She smiled and replied: "This is the first time I have eaten such delicious osmanthus cake."
For some reason, she felt a little flustered.
She stood up and said, "It's time for your uncle to drink medicine. I'm going to the Nourishing Heart Hall. Dear ladies, Ziyue will leave first."
"Prince and Princess Zhuang, I'm going too. I haven't seen the emperor's grandfather for a long time!" Chu Hongyu jumped over from the children's table, "I have written a new article, and I just want to give it to the emperor to comment on it."
He said, holding Yun Chu's hand, "Didn't my mother talk to my father about my grandfather's condition early in the morning? Let's go for a walk."
The other concubines actually wanted to go too.
But these days, every time they went there, they were scolded and driven away by the emperor. They felt hot and cold every day, so they didn't want to move.
Yun Chu looked at Su Ziyue: "Sister Ziyue, if I take Brother Yu there now, will it disturb my father's rest?"
When she asked, everyone's eyes fell on Su Ziyue's face.
Everyone felt a sense of disharmony.
When Yun Chu, the daughter-in-law, went to visit the emperor, she actually had to get permission from Su Ziyue, the niece.
Weird, really weird.
They also suddenly discovered that these days, apart from the waiters and some ministers, only Su Ziyue could get close to the emperor.
Su Ziyue is Prince Zhuang's concubine, and Prince Zhuang's identity is not simple. He is a direct bloodline of the Queen Mother, and the biological son of the prince in front!
For a moment, everyone's eyes changed.
Under these gazes, Su Ziyue said a little embarrassedly: "Uncle Huang thought about Brother Yu this morning. He must be very happy to see Brother Yu pass by."
"Then let's go." Chu Hongyu held the article in his hand, rushed to the first one, and quickly walked towards the Yangxin Hall.
"We people should not go." Concubine Yun said with a smile, "The emperor is seriously ill and can't smell the powder. There is no need to annoy the emperor by going. Let's continue to enjoy the flowers."
Yun Chu took Brother Yu to the Yangxin Hall.
As soon as I walked in, I saw many veterans kneeling at the entrance of the hall.
"The emperor is seriously ill now, and the prince must supervise the country. If the prince goes to the front line, who will govern this huge country?"
"Both the circumstances and the reasons dictate that the prince should be allowed to lead troops to the front line. What's more, His Royal Highness is only given 80,000 troops. How can he win the Dongling Kingdom?"
"Please, Your Majesty, take back your life!"
The emperor sat beside the dragon collapse and rubbed his brow vigorously.
His mind was a little heavy, and he vaguely remembered that a few afternoons ago, he inexplicably wrote an imperial edict, asking Yi'er to lead troops to the front line to attack the Dongling Kingdom.
Looking back now, this decision was too hasty.
The prince of a country should not go to the battlefield. Even if he does, he should go when needed.
Moreover, he only assigned 80,000 soldiers.
What was he thinking when he wrote the edict?
"Eighty thousand people is too few." The emperor said in a deep voice, but he had not yet finished speaking.
A petite figure came in from the door of the hall: "Uncle Huang is still not fully recovered, so why did he get up without putting on his coat? If this continues, it will be really hard to get rid of this cough."
The important minister who was kneeling on the ground had long been used to strange things.
Every time they come to the emperor these days, Princess Zhuang and Princess Zhuang are always at the emperor's side, and she is extremely favored by the emperor.
"I'm sorry for Ziyue's stupidity. Eighty thousand people is a lot." Su Ziyue said as if she didn't know anything. "The total number of people in Anding City doesn't even amount to eighty thousand."
She used to interrupt the discussions between the emperor and ministers from time to time.
Her husband told her that because there was a little bug in her body, anything she said would affect the emperor's decision.
Her husband has a special status and is feared by others, so she must fight for more benefits for her husband.
However, this time, the emperor did not follow her words and change his decision as before.
The pair of eyes that looked old due to illness fell on Su Ziyue, and said coldly: "I am discussing matters with the court officials, how can you be qualified to speak? Also, Eunuch Gao! I am handling court affairs, no one comes in , must report, if there is another time, you don’t have to come.”
Eunuch Gao suddenly became excited: "Prince Zhuang, Princess Zhuang, please!"
Su Ziyue was stunned as she was invited outside the hall.
She didn't understand why the emperor suddenly changed.
Before, she asked the emperor to reward her husband with some good things, and the emperor rewarded them all.
She said that the concubines in the palace were uneasy and well-intentioned, so the emperor prohibited any concubines from entering the palace to serve her.
She asked the emperor to issue an order for the prince to go to the front line, and the emperor wrote the imperial edict without saying anything.
Why now...
etc!
Su Ziyue's eyes widened suddenly and she looked at Yun Chu who was standing outside the hall.
