After calming down a little from the shock in his heart, Baili Yue frowned and asked, "What does your majesty mean? Why did you suddenly issue this edict?"

"It means literally that I have a feeling that I don't have much time left recently, so I want you to arrange my affairs first to prevent those who are interested from coveting my position. I have no children, so the one I trust most among these people is Your Highness the Prince." Su Mo smiled slightly.

[The host has a strong desire to survive, and curses himself in order to stay alive.] Maoqiu complained.

"What do you know? I haven't even seen my male lover yet. You can't just die like this." Su Mo curled his lips.

Can you trust me?

Baili Yue looked at Su Mo. Even though she knew that what Su Mo said was false, she seemed to feel a little satisfied in her heart.

[Strategy value increased by 2%, current strategy progress is 7%]

Does this work too?

Su Mo originally didn't think that this action would gain so many strategy points, but since that's the case, Suo Xin would exchange more strategy points. After all, the higher the strategy points, the safer it is.

"Prince, don't you believe in my sincerity?" Su Mo asked with a smile.

"How could that be?" Baili Yue lowered her eyes. Even she couldn't guess the reason behind Su Mo's behavior.

"I know you don't believe it, so I'll give you something else." Su Mo carefully lifted the mat on the couch, revealing a small secret compartment.

Baili Yue didn't say anything, but just watched Su Mo's actions quietly.

Su Mo carefully took out the tightly wrapped thing in the secret compartment and placed it on the table. The moment he untied the cloth, Baili Yue's pupils shrank instantly.

What Su Mo took out was actually the jade seal.

Although she had used the emperor to control the princes during this period, and used Su Mo's illness as an excuse to make those ministers obey her with a handwritten letter, it was still difficult to convince them without the seal. If it weren't for her ruthless and decisive actions in recent years, and if those ministers had not been intimidated by her, I'm afraid no one would listen to her.

But if Su Mo hands over the jade seal, who would dare to disobey her?

But she couldn't figure out what Su Mo's intention was behind his sudden action.

[Strategy value increased by 5%, current strategy progress is 12%]

"Your Majesty's gift seems too expensive. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for me to accept it." Baili Yue said in a very calm tone.

If Su Mo hadn't seen Baili Yue's hand on the jade seal, she would have thought that Baili Yue really didn't want it!

But since Baili Yue had said so much, she had to refuse.

"Your Highness, you should keep it. If something happens to me, I am afraid someone with ulterior motives will use the seal to forge a false imperial edict. By then, my kingdom will fall into their hands. I will not be willing to die in such a situation."

As he spoke, Su Mo sighed, seeming to feel a little emotional.

This was not an act. If she really died before seeing her male lover, it would be a great loss.

"Then I will keep this jade seal for you." Baili Yue smiled and nodded, handed the jade seal to the servant who followed her and winked.

The servant understood and wrapped the seal tightly, then turned and left the bedroom.

Su Mo glanced at the servant, but didn't care.

"All of you please leave. If you dare to reveal a word of what you have seen or heard today, you will all be punished." Baili Yue swept his cold eyes over the maids in the bedroom and said sternly.

"Yes." The maids were so scared that they immediately knelt on the ground and nodded repeatedly.

Because Prince Ning, who has always been decisive in killing people, would indeed do something murderous.

Su Mo was so depressed. She, the well-deserved empress, hadn't even stepped down yet, but everyone had become her running dogs.

As expected, none of them are good.

Seeing Su Mo's gloomy face, Baili Yue seemed to know something. He waved his hand to signal these people and said with a smile: "I overstepped my bounds for a moment, but this matter concerns your majesty's life. I was distracted for a moment, so I gave the order first."

Oh, do you think she is a fool?

The people around her are clearly Baili Yue's people.

She still cares about herself. Even if this matter really gets out, it will not have any impact on her. On the contrary, the one who should be worried is Baili Yue herself.

However, Su Mo was not interested in exposing Baili Yue, and nodded slightly: "I know, I believe in His Royal Highness."

Baili Yue watched as the curve of Su Mo's mouth continued to widen.

This woman is really good at playing dumb, but she likes Su Mo's tactfulness.

[Strategy value increased by 3%, current strategy progress is 15%]

She has handed over everything she had, so Baili Yue should have no reason to kill her.

Handing over the jade seal is equivalent to giving all the power to Baili Yue. Now the position of empress is just an empty title to Baili Yue.

If that's the case, does that mean she can consider having a male lover?

[Host, the mission is to capture the target, not to have fun. ]

Maoqiu spoke up at an inopportune time to remind him.

"It's not like I don't want to attack. I just want to combine work and rest." Su Mo laughed, but his face still looked melancholy.

Su Mo sighed in a fake manner, and Baili Yue raised her eyebrows. Obviously, she knew that what Su Mo was going to say next was the purpose of this time.

However, considering that Su Mo's performance today won her heart, she would like to hear why Su Mo did this.

He then asked calmly, "Your Majesty, is there anything on your mind?"

Here comes the opportunity.

Su Mo was so excited, but still looked melancholy.

"I know that many people in the court want me dead." While speaking, Su Mo glanced at Baili Yue. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his eyes clearly told Baili Yue that even you want to see me die.

Baili Yue looked at Su Mo and pretended to be like, "I don't know, there is actually such a thing."

So Su Mo did all this just to save her life and to please her?

That's right, she should have thought that Su Mo did all this to save his life.

It seemed that she overestimated this woman.

After all, at a time like this, life is always more important than the country. Since this woman has come this far, let's spare her life for now.

In fact, she also felt that Su Mo was innocent. After all, she had not had the opportunity to hold military power for even a single day since she ascended the throne.

But she is not the kind of person who likes to sympathize with others. She can only blame Su Mo for being born in an imperial family and blocking her way.

"I know I don't have much time left..." Su Mo sighed softly.

Baili Yue was just about to promise not to kill her, but before she could open her mouth, Su Mo's next words stunned her again.

"I am not afraid of death, but I haven't experienced a day of love, nor have I enjoyed a day of fun. I am unwilling to leave like this."

Just to experience the love affair between two young men and women, Su Mo was willing to give her all the power!

Baili Yue looked at Su Mo in astonishment, and suddenly laughed. This woman was really beyond her expectations.

She has always been very good at judging people and guessing their true thoughts, but Su Mo is the first person she feels she cannot see through or guess.

Not afraid of death, but want to experience the love between men and women.

Baili Yue was indeed overthinking the evaluation of not being afraid of death. Su Mo was very afraid of death, but Su Mo was certain that Baili Yue would not kill her for the time being through the strategy points and the bribes she gave.

So since you won't kill her, why not enjoy yourself!

What's more, Su Mo obviously wanted to experience it before dying, so even if Baili Yue still wanted to kill her, she would have to be hugged by men left and right before she died!

As the saying goes, to die under the peony flowers is to be a romantic ghost!
