The concubine was furious. She was eager to kill Sikong Yan, but she was afraid that good things would take time. If the emperor woke up, the plan could be carried out in advance. Otherwise, he might live a few more days.

"Eunuch Yan, this is an agreement between the emperor and me! Please step down. This matter is extremely urgent and cannot wait."

Eunuch Yan had known his intention for a long time, and without the emperor, he would never be able to accomplish it.

"The most important agreement is that the emperor will also inform me. The emperor has been favoring the empress for several days. Even a body of iron needs a rest! Please go back, empress! The health of the emperor is the most important thing!" Eunuch Yan said slowly.

Haogu was so anxious that he was burning with anxiety, but he was still so slow. Haofei really wanted to chop the old eunuch away from her sight. But he was a favorite of the emperor, and she had no right to make the decision. She might have to wait until tomorrow.

After all, Concubine Wan is one step ahead.

The other concubines, seeing the emperor like this, definitely couldn't do it at this moment. If Eunuch Yan wasn't there, the good concubine would definitely be able to wake him up with a needle. But waking the emperor up with a needle is not necessarily a good thing, what if he gets angry?

The concubines all stepped forward and said, "Sister, let's go back! It would be right for the emperor to wake up tomorrow and happily summon us."

One of the concubines even leaned over to whisper in his ear: "If you make him angry, no one can stop him!"

Hao Fei thought about it and agreed. So she gave up!

"Eunuch Yan, if the emperor wakes up, please inform me first. I really have something very important to ask the emperor to decide!"

Eunuch Yan then bent down and said, "If the emperor wakes up, I will send someone to inform the queen immediately!"

"it is good!"

Seeing the concubines leaving one after another in disappointment, Eunuch Yan couldn't help but admire Concubine Wan's clever tactics.

Sikong Yan was carrying 220,130 taels of silver and divided them into four large carriages for transportation. The lighter the load, the faster it will run!

The soldiers who went to war rode ordinary horses, and their maximum range was four to five hundred miles a day.

The silver was delivered by first-class horses borrowed from the county magistrate, which could carry the goods more than 700 to 800 miles a day. So before they reached the next county 500 miles away, they could catch up with the army.

Han Mingguang asked Xiao Sanlang to order the army to slow down, for he was afraid that the young prince would not be able to catch up. But when they were about to take a break for lunch, Sikong Yan had already come over with a lot of silver in his pocket.

Sizhe shouted, "The money is coming! There's no need to worry!"

Han Mingguang and Xiao Sanlang saw them and ran up happily to greet them.

Xiao Sanlang asked: "Really? Really? How many thousand taels?" For them, getting a thousand taels of silver was considered pretty good!

"More than 200,000!" Sikong Yan said with a smile.

Han Mingguang and Xiao Sanlang couldn't believe it: "Your Highness is joking!"

Shui Qinglian laughed and pointed at the four large carriages behind, "Do you need four large carriages for several thousand taels of silver?"

Han Mingguang exclaimed: "How did you do it, Your Highness?"

Sikong Yan smiled and said, "Oh, I'm hungry. Can we talk while eating?"

Xiao Sanlang said, "Of course!" He waved his hand behind him. Suddenly, a large group of soldiers came running and lifted up Sikong Yan, Xiao Sizha, and Shui Qinglian.

"Oh! We're just having a meal! Let's just walk over there!" Sikong Yan couldn't help but shout loudly as he was lifted above their heads.

Xiao Sizhe laughed loudly and said, "Ah, hey, this is really fun, really fun..."

Shui Qinglian was embarrassed and helpless, wiping her forehead and laughing secretly: "Why are you still wearing this?"

After listening to Sikong Yan's description, Han Shangshu, Xiao Sanlang and the soldiers felt refreshed and full of energy.

At this time, a man came here hurriedly driving a horse-drawn carriage.

The horse driver shouted from a distance: "The troops ahead are heading to the north! I was sent by the county magistrate Ming to take Miss Ming back!"

Han Mingguang walked forward and waved at him: "Come here, come here!"

The man drove a carriage with two fast horses and stopped in front of Han Mingguang. He jumped off the carriage and saluted Han Mingguang: "Sir, my name is Lu Bu. My master asked me to come and pick up the young lady! Excuse me, is the young lady here?"

Han Mingguang knew that County Magistrate Ming would never marry his daughter to him. He shouted to where the soldiers were gathered: "Yuexin, your father has sent someone to pick you up!" Ming Yuexin was helping the soldiers mend their clothes.

Xiaodong, Xiaoxi and two maids came over with their young lady.

"Lubu, go back and tell my father that I'm not going back. I want to go to the north with the army to fight! I want to contribute to everyone!"

"Miss, please don't make things difficult for me! My master has ordered me to bring you back!" Ruble was in great difficulty.

Ming Yuexin didn't think so! Xiaoxiao said, "Lubu, your martial arts skills are the best in the county government! Now that you are here, you should not go back. Protect me to the north! I will make clothes and mend clothes for the soldiers! I heard that it snows heavily there! I can keep them warm!"

"This..." Lu Bu was in a dilemma. Grandpa had known that he would not come back, so he had prepared ropes for him. He had no choice but to run to the carriage and take out a rope. He ordered: "Xiaodong and Xiaoxi, why don't you two help quickly and tie up the young lady and take her home!"

Xiaodong and Xiaoxi looked at Mingyuexin. They didn't know what to do. "Miss..."

Ming Yuexin put her hands on her hips and said loudly, "Okay, if you have the guts, tie me up! I promise you'll be a stiff corpse when you get home!"

Lu Bu was shocked when he heard this. He knelt on the ground and said, "Miss, I dare not!"

Ming Yuexin didn't care whether he was willing or not and said fiercely: "Two roads, it's up to you to choose!"

"What way?"

Xiaoxi thought it was that road and answered, "The road of life and the road of death!"

Lu Bu heard this and shouted, "Miss, why do you want me to die?"

Ming Yuexin punched Xiaoxi and scolded him, "If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense!" Then he said to Lu Bu, "The first option is that you return by yourself! The second option is that you follow us to protect me! I won't force you to choose. But you want me to go back with you, that's absolutely impossible."

Han Mingguang didn't expect this woman to be so tough and truly keep her word. It's a great honor to marry such a woman!

Lu Bu seemed to have a hard time deciding: "Do I have to choose one?" He sighed. With the county magistrate's temper, if you can't get things done, he might not use you again in the future. If you follow the young lady to the north, your life might be in danger! It really made it difficult for him to make a decision.

"Yes, you have to choose one!"

Lu Bu knelt there and thought for a while. He was an orphan, with nothing to worry about! If he stayed in the county, he might live longer! But that was it. Many people say that wealth and honor are sought in danger. He wanted to take a chance while he was young.
