Chapter 120: Palace scheming

"So he said that?" Nangong Yue frowned and asked in confusion.

Although Li Xiaoyao is very frugal in food and clothing, Nangong Yue can't believe such a rebellious word from the emperor of the Han Dynasty.

No country's emperor would say that the country is not his own, but the people's. This is either because of his head is clamped by a door or being kicked by a donkey.

"It was said by Your Majesty himself." Wu Daozi nodded and said, "Your Majesty is different from all the emperors in this world. He is diligent and loving the people, he is frugal and simple. He is not an emperor who regards human life as a mustard of grass."

"I can feel that he really wanted Wu Qingshan, that is, my elder brother, to lead 100,000 Chu troops to surrender. Maybe you would think that Your Majesty was afraid of Wu Qingshan or the 400,000 Chu troops, but I know that it was not."

"Your Majesty has enough strength to defeat the Chu army, and you can even say it bluntly that Your Majesty has the ability to massacre the entire Chu State, but why didn't he attack Chu State, but instead wanted to fight Zhao State, which is stronger than Chu State? Miss Nangong, have you ever thought about it?"

"This..." After hearing what Wu Daozi said, Nangong Yue was silent for a while, and frowned and said, "This is indeed unreasonable. She keeps the meat on her mouth and doesn't eat it, but she just wants to bite the tough ones. I really can't figure it out and can't see through him."

"Ha!" Wu Daozi chuckled and said, "In fact, it is very simple. Your Majesty attacks Zhao to create an absolute military deterrent force for Zhao. When Your Majesty attacks Chu in the future, Zhao will not dare to interfere easily."

Nangong Yue frowned slightly and said suddenly: "It turns out that in his eyes, Li Xiaoyao, Chu has long been a piece of fat meat at his mouth. This is equivalent to two dogs competing for food. Zhao and Han countries are all dogs, and Chu countries are the fat meat at their mouths. One dog first beats the other dog, and then slowly enjoys the food in front of each other."

"Miss Nangong, your words are a crime of disrespect. After all, this is the Han Dynasty palace. Even if Your Majesty likes you, you must pay more attention to your words and deeds."

"What did you say?"

Before Wu Daozi finished speaking, Nangong Yue was shocked and looked at him with a serious expression.

"Miss Nangong doesn't know?" Wu Daozi said in confusion.

Nangong Yue said with a pretty face pale: "How could he fall in love with me?"

Um?

Wu Daozi frowned and said, "Miss Nangong, Your Majesty likes you, everyone can see that. If Your Majesty didn't like you, how could he care about Wu Qingshan's life or death?

I think I don’t have that big face, and I can let Your Majesty give Wu Qingshan a chance to surrender again and again for me.

Moreover, if Your Majesty hadn't liked you, how could he take care of your feelings? Miss Nangong, Your Majesty, you don't want you to treat him as your enemy, so you have been restraining yourself and try not to attack Chu with force."

Speaking of this, Wu Daozi shook his head and sighed: "You are a mystery to the authorities!"

Hearing these words, Nangong Yue was shocked and could not calm down for a long time.

At this time, Wu Daozi continued: "Miss Nangong, Your Majesty likes you, this is an indisputable fact. Your Majesty wants to annex Chu State, which is also the general trend. Therefore, please be sure to write a letter. At that time, I will go there in person and hand it over to Wu Qingshan."

"As for what happened next, you don't have to worry about it, your Majesty will make arrangements."

"Li Xiaoyao, you are just a bastard!" Nangong Yue clenched his fists and cursed with gritted teeth. How could he hear what Wu Daozi was saying!

At this time, Wu Daozi turned his head and gave a look to Xiao Dezi who was waiting outside the door.

Xiao Dezi immediately understood and said to the palace maid beside him: "Go and get the pen and ink."

"Ah?" The palace maid was still stunned. It was not until Xiao Dezi said it again that the palace maid was confused and went to prepare the pen and ink.

In Fengming Palace, a palace maid hurried to Lin Zhiqing and said, "Empress, Lord Wu asked someone to take the pen and ink for Nangong Master."

"Get the pen and ink?" Lin Zhiqing looked at Liu Yifei beside him in confusion and said, "Sister Yifei, what is Wu Daozi doing?"

"I don't know!" Liu Yifei smiled slightly.

Lin Zhiqing frowned and looked at the palace maid who came to report and ordered: "Go to the backyard to keep an eye on it. If you have any trouble, please give it back in time."

"No!" The palace maid bowed slightly and retreated.

After writing the letter, Nangong Yue carefully folded it up, looked up at Wu Daozi and said, "Uncle Wu, please, you are also from Chu, and you and Uncle Qingshan are brothers, so I hope you will not push Chu into a desperate situation."

"Miss Nangong, please rest assured. I guarantee that as long as the elder brother can abandon the darkness and turn to the light, I promise that all the promises His Majesty said before will be fulfilled." Wu Daozi said very seriously.

"Okay! I believe you." Nangong Yue stood up, looked down at the letter in her hand, and finally raised the courage to hand it over to Wu Daozi.

"Miss Nangong, here I thank you for the millions of Chu soldiers and my elder brother." Wu Daozi bowed and said.

"Uncle Wu, there is no need to be too polite." Nangong Yue hurried forward and supported Wu Daozi.

Wu Daozi stood up and said, "Then I will take my leave first."

"Yeah!" Nangong Yue nodded.

Wu Daozi saluted and turned around and walked away. Just as he was about to step out of the room, Nangong Yue hurriedly said, "Uncle Wu, can you take me to see him?"

Wu Daozi stopped. He knew that Nangong Yue's mouth was referring to Li Xiaoyao, and then said without looking back: "Miss Nangong, I can't make the decision, but I can convey your words to Your Majesty."

Nangong Yue was silent for a while and said, "Just tell him, I want to see him."

"Okay!" Wu Daozi responded, then walked out of the room vigorously.

Nangong Yue looked at the door, and there were too many doubts in her beautiful eyes, and she longed to get an answer.

But in the past ten days, after she arrived at Fengming Palace, she never saw Li Xiaoyao again.

It was only in the past ten days that she realized that in this palace, no one could see Li Xiaoyao just by wanting to see him. Even the noble queen would be difficult to see him without Li Xiaoyao's reply.

"You said just now that Wu Daozi left with a letter written by Nangong Yue?" Lin Zhiqing sat on the bed, frowned and looked at the palace maid who was slightly owing in front of him.

"Yes." The palace maid nodded and said, "This is what I saw with my own eyes. Also, the little master of Nangong asked Lord Wu to bring a message to His Majesty, saying that she wanted to see His Majesty."

"Want to see Your Majesty?" Lin Zhiqing frowned slightly, looked at Liu Yifei and said, "Sister Yifei, hasn't this Nangong Yue always been hiding from Your Majesty? Why did Wu Daozi come here and even her temperament changed?"
