Although Chen Lin tried his best to attack Nalan Yiqing's warships on the Li River, he failed to kill Nalan Yiqing as he wished, and the Dayan army who arrived rescued Song Weizhao and Nalan Yiqing.

However, Lu Linzhi ordered his men to sink the warship, and Nalan Yiqing caught a cold after falling into the water, and the fetus in her belly could not be saved.

She blamed all this hatred on Chen Lin and Fu Yuanshu. As soon as she returned to the north bank, she ordered the 100,000 cavalrymen who were secretly sent from the northern border to attack Chen Lin's surrendered troops.

Due to Fu Yuanshu's improper command and the fear of injuring Song Weizhao, which would leave them without support, the 200,000-strong army was quickly defeated by the Alkh Cavalry. They abandoned Fu Yuanshu and fled everywhere, gathering in Jinyang City which Chen Lin had captured in the west.

Seeing her trusted friends abandoning her, Fu Yuanshu felt extremely desperate and had no choice but to open the city gate and let Song Weizhao enter.

"Your Majesty, I just want to help you regain the imperial power, and I have no ulterior motives."

In the mansion, Alkh's brave generals gathered. Fu Yuanshu looked at Nalan Yiqing, who was leaning on the chair with white lips, and angrily rebuked him with confidence: "This witch has brought disaster to the country and the people. She has harmed your majesty a lot. Your majesty, look at Dayan now. The people's hearts are all lost. The noble families are all thinking about crossing the south. If this continues, what prestige will your majesty have?"

Song Weizhao remained silent and slapped her hard in the face.

How could he not know this truth?

But Chen Lin has only been in the army for a short time, so how could he have the strength to compete with Alhe and his gang of strong men?

He had wanted to make good use of Chen Lin and have him check and balance the Alkh army after he gained power, but he never expected that he would be easily defeated by this idiot.

Now the princess hated Chen Lin to the core, and even if he wanted to ease the conflict, it was impossible.

Thinking about her plan to attack Gui Yun, Song Weizhao felt even more depressed.

"Go away, I don't want to see you again."

He slowly closed his eyes, not wanting to look at the woman in front of him any longer.

"Your Majesty is so cruel?"

Fu Yuanshu burst into tears: "I have devoted myself to Your Majesty. I entered the Song family with the spirit tablet in my arms. I was willing to remain faithful and become a widow. In order to help Your Majesty enter the Northern Kingdom safely, my cousin's entire family was slaughtered, and I was expelled from the family by my father. I followed Your Majesty everywhere, and suffered humiliation from the evil woman Nalan, but I never complained. Your Majesty wants to abandon me today?"

Thinking of this, Song Weizhao pursed his lips sadly.

Thinking carefully about everything that happened in the past two years, she has indeed paid a lot for herself.

Although she was reckless this time, she did it for her own good and had no selfish motives.

Sighing silently, he opened his eyes again and helped the man up.

"You and the princess are both my wives. You shouldn't harbor any resentment towards her."

Wiping away the tears on her face, Song Weizhao couldn't help but said, "Also, Guiyun is your sister, you shouldn't be so cruel to her."

"What are you saying, Your Majesty?"

Fu Yuanshu pretended not to understand: "It is true that I hate Princess Nalan, but I have no ill will towards my elder sister. Is there any misunderstanding?"

"This princess wants to see how long you can keep pretending today."

Nalan Yiqing angrily drew out the general's sword beside him and pointed it at Fu Yuanshu: "If Chen Lin didn't instruct you, why would he shoot Fu Guiyun?"

"Princess, you are so sinister. It's obvious that you have evil intentions and want to harm my elder sister. You deliberately sent someone to drive Chen Lin away. Are you waiting to frame me?"

Facing the cold sword in front of her, Fu Yuanshu calmly defended herself: "You have hurt me once, how can I let you hurt me a second time?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he ordered someone to bring the tonic that Nalan Yiqing prepared for him on a daily basis, and said sternly: "You have used this tonic soup for more than a year, causing me to lose the flesh and blood of His Majesty, and making me no longer have the opportunity to give birth to an heir for His Majesty. Now you have suffered retribution..."

Before she finished speaking, Nalan Yiqing immediately scolded her: "What nonsense are you talking about? You have evil intentions and dare not take responsibility, but you even want to accuse me of something?"

Then, he would swing his sword at her.

Upon learning that the princess had killed Fu Yuanshu's unborn baby, Song Weizhao flew into a rage. He grabbed the sword she was swinging at him and angrily asked, "Is what Yuanshu said true?"

Nalan Yiqing kept shaking his head: "Your Majesty, please don't listen to her nonsense."

Song Weizhao took the bowl of medicine and said, "In that case, please take this bowl of tonic, Princess."

Nalan Yiqing choked when he saw it and did not dare to drink the bowl of medicine.

Seeing this, Fu Yuanshu glared at her with great pride: "Your Majesty, this witch keeps saying that she has deep feelings for you. She knew that you were on the Lu family's ship, but she still insisted on her own way and sent so many assassins to assassinate you. It is obvious that she did not expect Your Majesty to return safely."

"Your Majesty, I have absolutely no such intention."

It was the first time that Nalan Yiqing had experienced the shamelessness of this woman. She shouted, "I asked your majesty's personal guards to accompany you. Even if the Lu family hid soldiers on the ship, the two ships were close together, and I could have safely brought your majesty back to the ship. It's obvious that this bitch has ulterior motives. She wants to harm both the Lu family's Crown Prince and me."

"Don't you want to harm Guiyun?"

Song Weizhao could no longer believe Nalan Yiqing. After all, Chen Lin had been forced to go to Jinyang by her.

"You ambushed so many assassins in the river. If it wasn't to harm Guiyun, could it be to harm me?"

Song Weizhao's eyes turned fierce, and he yelled at her, "How can you be so vicious? Yuanshu treated you with great respect in Lierong City and obeyed you in everything. I also tolerated you in every way, but you schemed against her and harmed the fetus in her belly. No wonder she wanted to kill you."

Seeing all the generals in the hall were furious, he snatched the sword from Nalan Yiqing's hand and shouted, "From today on, I will never allow you to act recklessly again."

"Song Weizhao, how dare you blame Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

Nalan Yiqing's confidants could no longer bear to watch and drew their swords, "Everything you have is given by the princess. Do you really think that you have become powerful now that you have returned to the Central Plains?"

"presumptuous."

Nalan Yiqing's eyes were sharp, sweeping across the generals: "Don't be rude to His Majesty."

After saying this, she knelt down on the ground first and took the initiative to plead guilty: "It is this concubine who holds a personal grudge. I am willing to accept the punishment and I ask for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."

As she said this, she glanced at Fu Yuanshu, who looked very proud: "I know that your majesty has Miss Fu in his heart. I am willing to make amends and try to bring Miss Fu back to your majesty."

"really?"

After hearing this, Song Weizhao's anger immediately subsided a lot.

"It's true."

Nalan Yiqing kowtowed and said, "I am not only willing to bring Miss Fu back for Your Majesty, but I am also willing to take the initiative to give up my position and I beg Your Majesty to make her the queen."

"No."

Fu Yuanshu felt a panic in her heart.

She naturally knew that Song Weizhao was still thinking about his elder sister, so how could he be willing to let her come back.

Fearing that Song Weizhao might become suspicious, she quickly explained: "Your Majesty, please do not believe the sweet words of this witch. She wants to harm my elder sister. How could she sincerely welcome my elder sister to Dayan? She clearly wants to trick her into coming here and then harm her."

This reminded Song Weizhao that he really didn't dare to believe Nalan Yiqing's words anymore.

Since Gui Yun was so resistant to him, it would be difficult to convince her to return to Dayan in a short time. He had to take this opportunity to weaken Nalan Yiqing's power and consolidate his own position.

Slowly looking at Fu Yuanshu, thinking about everything she had done for him, Song Weizhao was very moved and said solemnly: "Yuanshu has been with me through thick and thin, and has always been loyal to me. I am determined to make her the queen to consolidate the foundation of the country."
