Chapter 194 Return to the Land
The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, the emperor slowly said, "Do you really have to go back?"
"Your Majesty! It's not necessary to go back, but it's inconvenient to do many things because there are so many people around!"
The ruler is often suspicious.
Hearing the emperor's words, Xu Feng knew that the emperor had become suspicious of him.
One can think of ambition.
He clasped his hands together, his eyes determined. "The situation in the court is complicated. Prime Minister Wang and others are blocking it, and there are many complicated forces! Only when I return can I concentrate on serving the court!"
The situation in the court is turbulent.
There were constant struggles in the former dynasty and the harem.
The emperor looked at Xu Feng and pondered for a moment, "Let me think about this matter carefully!"
Just then, Concubine Yi walked out from the other side.
The study is a very important place, but the imperial concubine can walk in easily, which shows how favored she is.
The Emperor raised his eyes indifferently, "Why are you here, my beloved concubine?"
"I was bored, so I came to see Your Majesty! I didn't expect the Marquis to be here!"
Although she said this, Concubine Yi glanced at Xu Feng out of the corner of her eye and quickly looked away.
She smiled sweetly and threw herself into the emperor's arms. "I know you're so busy and should take care of your health. Have you investigated Mr. Murong's affairs? I've been very concerned about him these past few days. I heard that Mr. Murong wants to build a large ship?"
"You are well-informed!" The emperor looked at the person in his arms, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.
The sound kept coming into my ears.
Xu Feng didn't dare to look up, and just glanced at the two of them.
The two of them are together, loving each other very much, but what's going on with the imperial concubine always looking at him?
Thinking of the dream that night.
Is it a dream or is it real?
A faint fragrance filled the air in the hall, and Xu Feng's heart trembled. For some reason, he always felt that this fragrance was very familiar?
Time slips away bit by bit.
The emperor and Concubine Yi were showing their affection there as if no one was around.
After a while, the emperor spoke slowly, "It's not impossible for you to go back if you want, but..."
"Your Majesty, please send a trusted follower!"
Suspicion breeds ghosts.
Xu Feng thought that he had no bad intentions, so he might as well speak directly to reassure the person in front of him.
The emperor laughed heartily. "Okay, okay, it's settled. We can set off tomorrow!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Feng clasped his hands together and then quietly retreated.
At the palace gate, before getting on the carriage, he suddenly turned around and saw a figure not far away.
That person was none other than Concubine Yi.
Thinking about what just happened in the imperial study.
On the surface, Concubine Yi had no connection with him.
Concubine Yi did not mention him at all, but if he had not mentioned Mr. Murong, the emperor would not have agreed so readily.
But why would Concubine Yi help him?
He got on the carriage in confusion and lowered the curtain to block his view.
The carriage swayed and moved away from the palace.
On the city wall, Concubine Yi sighed and looked at the eunuch beside her, "Don't tell anyone about what happened today!"
"The slave obeys the order!"
The young eunuch clasped his hands together and quietly retreated.
Only Concubine Yi was left on the high wall. She watched the carriage gradually disappear from her sight, her beautiful eyes dimmed.
The nanny beside her hurried forward to support her, "My Lady, you are of high status now, you can't blow the wind here!"
"Never mind, it's just a small matter!"
Concubine Yi smiled brightly and placed her hand on her belly. "Go get the imperial physician!"
……
Xu Feng returned and told everyone that he was about to return to his fiefdom.
Honglian was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. "Great! We can finally go back. It's so unpleasant being tied up here!"
"Yes, yes, let's go back and drink and eat as much as we want! It's not like in the capital, where we have to follow the rules for everything!"
Hearing the voices of his men, Xu Feng laughed heartily, "So you guys can't get used to it either? Pack up and we can leave tomorrow!"
tomorrow.
Hearing these two words, everyone dispersed and started packing up their things.
Of course, everyone was happy, except for one person who was stunned and at a loss.
This person is none other than Muhanti.
He stood there alone, watching everyone busying themselves, and for a moment he didn't know what to do.
Honglian glanced at him as she passed by, "What are you standing there for? You're one of our Jinyiwei, you have to come with us!"
"This……"
Muhanti looked reluctant.
Xu Feng looked over with a half-smile, "Why not?"
"Of course not. My admiration for you is like a surging river, endless and endless. I admire you so much that I will go wherever you go!"
"Stop talking nonsense and clean up quickly! And this, send it to the Prime Minister's Mansion!"
A letter was thrown over.
Muhanti took the letter and subconsciously wanted to open it, but just as he made a move, someone looked at him coldly. He felt a chill on his neck and stopped immediately.
"I dare not, I know I am wrong!"
"Just admit your mistake and stop playing tricks! Send the letter now!"
Xu Feng's eyes were burning with coldness.
It seemed as if if Muhanti disobeyed, he would chop him off with a knife in the next second.
Muhanti was helpless, so he put his hand to his mouth and whistled, and then he saw a big bird flying over.
Xu Feng was in high spirits and saw all of this.
Under his gaze, Muhanti reluctantly placed the letter on the big bird's legs.
The big bird spread its wings and flew away quickly.
Xu Feng stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder. "Yes, I now find that you are becoming more and more useful! I don't keep useless people here, understand?"
"I know, I know!"
Those who know the current affairs are handsome.
Muhanti nodded quickly.
After the letter was delivered, Xu Feng was not worried that he would cause trouble, so he walked back to his room.
Prime Minister's House.
Spreading the letter, Prime Minister Wang laughed heartily, "Great, great! He's finally leaving the capital and returning to Linhai County!"
"Really? That would be great news for you, sir! Ever since Xu Feng came to the capital, we have been so timid!"
"But, sir, have you ever thought that since he is here, he doesn't have to go back!"
"Right, right, right. This is a rare opportunity! With Muhanti as our insider, it's easy to capture him!"
Listening to his staff's words, Prime Minister Wang fell into deep thought.
He gave Muhanti a deadly poison. Not much was needed, just a little bit of the powder would be enough to kill Xu Feng.
only.
He looked at the letter in his hand and said, "They are going back this time to build ironclad ships."
Although they didn't know what an ironclad ship was, they knew it was extraordinary just by hearing the name.
Everyone looked at each other, unable to make up their minds for a moment.
Just then, news came from the palace.
Prime Minister Wang opened the letter and said solemnly, "Noble Concubine Yi is pregnant!"
"Pregnant?"
When they heard these two words, everyone had different expressions.
In their opinion, it was a good thing for a concubine in the palace to be pregnant. However, when they thought about the emperor's harem...
An aide quickly spoke up, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We just need to hold on tight..."
