Empress of the Northern Zhou Dynasty

"It's getting late, Your Majesty might as well spend the night in the courtyard. I'll return to Chang'an tomorrow." Ashina put down the tea table in his hand and sighed.Of course, he did not follow Yu Wenyong's opinion more. "A Liya," at this point, that girl should come over and wait for her to fall asleep.

Sure enough, Aliya calculated that the time was about the same, so she came out from the servant's room.Before entering the courtyard, I heard the call of the empress.Run in hastily.

Scared, why are the emperor and General Shenju here?

"Alia, quickly prepare a clean wing for the emperor."

"Yes, yes." Alia was puzzled, didn't the master change back, why did His Highness Wu's character change again.

Ashina took a look at Yu Wenyong, completely meaning to chase him away.Yu Wenyong said in his heart, there are so many things happening today, it is time to sort them out.So he and Shenju got rid of the courtyard together, and then went to the next room.But Yuwen Shenju felt that he was squeezed with the soldiers outside.

Let's say that the state of Zhou is considered to be calm and calm, but the state of Qi at this time is completely another scene.

Yang Xuewu was forced to marry Gao Wei, King Lanling was given poisoned wine in advance, and Gao Yang was placed under house arrest...Because of the promotion of Ashina and other forces, Qi State was in chaos earlier than in the previous life.Only half a month after Gao Wei's official ascension to the throne, he didn't need other countries to do anything, and cut off the left and right arms of Qi.The demon queen Zheng Er is also acting as a hindrance, and the people of Qi State are afraid that they will live in dire straits.

Under the same starry sky, there are indeed different scenes.

Ashina was sleeping on the bed, but his consciousness was extremely clear, and he didn't feel sleepy at all.She guessed that the man next door was the same as herself, and she might not be able to sleep all night.

She has been away from the palace for a while, and it is almost time to go back.Before closing his eyes completely, Ashina thought.

On the second day, many unsuspecting palace people got up early to do their own duties, and unexpectedly saw a man who looked like the emperor. Nonsense, he was obviously the emperor.All of them became soft-legged shrimps in fright, can you let the emperor know that they are appearing, the servants can't help being scared.

Yu Wenyong had dark circles under his eyes, he hadn't figured out how to face this Ashina yet.However, he will not give up no matter what.Because, Yu Wenyong believes that one day, Ashina will be willing to wake up.Therefore, before that, Ashina must always be in his sight and make sure that he will not disappear.

"Chen and concubine greet the emperor."

If it wasn't for the hostility in his eyes, Yu Wenyong would have doubted the tone that the gentle, high-end and generous Ashina should have. Just last night, his Ashina woke up.

"Get up." Yu Wenyong helped her up and had breakfast together.It's just that no one spoke.The two bowed their heads to drink porridge at the same time.

"Your Majesty, it's almost ready." When Alia woke up early, she followed her mother's instructions and packed up her things to go back to the palace.

"Well. Then get ready to go."

"Let's go, where are you going?" Yu Wenyong asked puzzled.

"The emperor was joking, of course he is going back to the palace. The courtiers and concubines can't just live in the Zen temple."

Therefore, the people of the entire Zhou Kingdom knew how infatuated their emperor was, and they personally took back the empress who was going to visit the Buddha in the ancient temple.Of course, the reason why he knew about it was because something happened halfway, and the plan to return to the palace in a low-key manner was disrupted.

It is said that at that time, Ashina and Yu Wenyong had breakfast, and they left the ancient temple with a small team.Then go back to the Zhou Palace.

When passing through a small town with a lot of people and affluence, suddenly a group of masked men holding weapons appeared. Immediately, that idiot Wang Meng shouted: "There are no assassins! Protect the emperor and empress."

As a result, the identities of the group were exposed.The soldiers fought with those masked men, which affected many people on the street.Yu Wenyong couldn't bear that someone wanted to assassinate him, and it was even more unbearable for his people to be hurt by a group of unknown people.

Before the local government arrived, the secret guards who had been guarding Ashina were all elite soldiers carefully selected by Yuwen Shenju, and they quickly captured this group of people.Perhaps they didn't expect that besides the guards who were clearly on the scene, there were actually hidden guards.Completely miscalculated the strength of the assassination target, or had other intentions?

Yu Wenyong sat in the main hall of the local court, because he heard that the emperor and empress were passing through the town, so many people wanted to watch.The grandfather who is still in the local county government office is a bit assertive. He notified the government office in advance to close the gate, so as to prevent the people from disturbing the holy car.

In the main hall, Yu Wenyong looked at the assassins whose masks had been torn off.One by one kept silent until the language god came in.

"Your Majesty, a thorough investigation has been conducted. The weapons used by these people all bear the unique marks of the Qi State Red Eagle Army."

"I know. God move, pass on the order, so as to appease the families of the people who have just been killed." Yu Wenyong looked at the group of people sharply, watching their response.He doesn't know who sent these people, but one thing has been confirmed, they are definitely not Qi soldiers.

"Yes, I will retire at the end."

After Shenju left, Yu Wenyong stared at the people who were killed and said nothing.He was waiting, waiting for them to reveal themselves.

"You, the emperor of the Zhou Kingdom, you can kill if you want." A person took the lead and said that he was not afraid of death. At the same time, his expression seemed to convey a message, and I would not say anything.

"Who ordered you to assassinate me and the queen?"

"Hmph, I won't say anything."

"We won't say anything either."

The other kidnapped people also agreed, since if they don't say anything, it's useless to keep them, let's pull them out and kill them.

A group of people, they never expected that the emperor of Zhou would order them to be killed without asking anything?It's not that they are afraid of death, they are all dead soldiers, and they all came with the determination to die.

After being dragged down, Ashina came out from the side hall and looked into the distance.

"What do you think?"

Ashina was silent for a long time, and finally said two words: "Chen Guo."

Yes, that group of people are clearly trained dead soldiers.In general, especially the dead soldiers of the royal family, they would never allow themselves to be caught alive, because they were never afraid of death.The group of people just now were indeed not afraid of death, but they had to wait for the results of the divine move. After seeing Yu Wenyong's reaction, they dared to die, which showed that they had another purpose.What is the purpose?Obviously, it is to pretend to be soldiers of Qi State and provoke Zhou and Qi.If this is the case, both Turkic and Chen countries are possible.The reason why Ashina ruled out the possibility of Turks was not because she was the princess of Turks, but because she was the person these people wanted to assassinate.

Arranging an assassination operation requires careful planning.The news that Yu Wenyong secretly went to the ancient temple last night was impossible to be detected by them.Then, it is obvious that the person they really assassinated was Ashina, the queen of Zhou, and the princess of Turkic.It really kills three birds with one stone.If the assassination is successful, it will stir up the conflict between Turkic, Zhou State, and Qi State. If the assassination is unsuccessful, it will frame Qi State and push it to the opposite of Zhou State and Turkic State.It would be great if it could arouse the emperor of Zhou's suspicion of the Turks.Chen Guo, no matter how you look at it, it's just a fisherman's profit.

But, the most important point of the whole incident - how did they get the news that they were leaving the palace?

Yu Wenyong should have blocked all the news, he shouldn't have leaked the news.Even if the news leaked out, no one would know the temple she chose and the route she took, except the people accompanying her.It seems that there is nothing wrong with the palace or the people brought by him.

Thinking of these, Ashina had his own plan in mind.

Yu Wenyong waited for a long time, but he didn't see any explanation from Ashina, but he knew that her thoughts coincided with his own.I can't help admiring and admiring, if Ashina is a man, Turkic is afraid that he will rise up, and he will be invincible in a few years.Yu Wenyong has always regarded King Lanling as his lifelong opponent, and now it seems that the person who is really equal to him in mind will be the person next to him.This Ashina is flamboyant and undisguised, so the ability that was hidden before is undoubtedly revealed.

After a small episode, it took another night for Yu Wenyong and Ashina to really set off back to Chang'an.

In the palace, this time it was Li Ezi who brought all the concubines to greet her. She is the birth mother of the crown prince and the concubine Li conferred by Yuwen Yong. Apart from Ashina, she naturally has the highest status in the palace.

Yu Wenyong fell off his horse and accepted the worship of those concubines.But the mood is not very good, are they all here to embarrass the queen?In fact, Ashina is very innocent, I really don't care.

"The courtiers welcome the emperor, and the empress returns to the palace."

"Get up." Yu Wenyong was not very happy, but it was not good for a group of women to kneel like this, so he had to let go.

"Yes."

Li Ezi was still dressed in white as usual, she rushed up to meet her and asked, "Your Majesty, are you alright?"

This question, other people's ideas may be different.Especially Ashina, looking at her eyes, seemed to see through something, and Yu Wenyong also looked at her meaningfully, and replied: "I just went to pick up the queen back to the palace, what can I do?"

"It's the concubine's slip of the tongue. The concubine wants to ask how the emperor has spent the past two days. The concubine is afraid that the ancient temple is poor and the emperor will not be used to it."

"I'm fine." Yu Wenyong distanced himself from her and replied coldly.It really means more, if not——how could she think that something happened to her?It really makes people have to think about what happened yesterday.

The author has something to say: It’s been so hard, I’m finally done, wow haha
