"Luo Fu, what day is it?" Chu Yue sat at his desk and asked while annotating the memorial.

The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the center of the Hall of Mental Cultivation through the window sill, and a ray of escaped light slantly shines on Chu Yue's side face.

At this time, he didn't look like an emperor, the coldness in his eyes turned into wind, and he rested his chin with his plain white hand, as if he was a little absent-minded.

Luo Fu stepped forward and replied respectfully: "The tenth day."

The pen in Chu Yue's hand stopped, he raised his head, looked at Luo Fu and asked again: "Is there any news about Mo Ci?"

"Never."

The current Chu Yue is like a flat boat, with no one to accompany him, and no one behind him to advise him.

A few days ago, the queen joined forces with her own father Chen Yi to impeach Pingnanhou Wu Xu, and some ministers who were accustomed to standing in line turned against each other.

When he walked to the window, he began to regret in his heart, regretting that Mo Ci was pushed to the opposite side by all means for the sake of military power, and even more regretful that Xu Kaitai took Mo Ci away without stopping him.

In fact, Chu Yue had many ways to get Mo Ci to give up his military power, but it seemed that he had only one brain circuit, and he chose the most extreme method, which hurt Mo Ci's body and chilled his heart.

As if to comfort the young emperor, a snow-white carrier pigeon flew to the eaves and uttered a cry, as if calling for someone.

Chu Yue waved to Luo Fu, signaling him to catch the pigeons.

Unfolding the note, there were only a few words written on it: Well, don't read.

"Alright...don't read..." Chu Yue kept saying these two words, and others must think him crazy.

But Luo Fu understood that Chu Yue was trying to find out the hidden meanings in these two words, such as the location, but it was a pity that these were just two simple words with no other meanings, let alone hints.

Chu Yue tightened his grip on the note in his hand. He returned to his desk, picked up the pen and paper, and wrote the pen and pen in one go: When will you return?

He tied the pigeon's front legs with a red string, fed it a piece of good pork belly, and carried it out of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"please."

The carrier pigeon flapped its wings a few times in the air and flew towards the blue sky, drawing a straight line, and then a black bird also flew up from the eaves of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. This type of black bird is used by the army to find the enemy's advancing route , is now used by Chu Yue to follow the pigeon to find where Mo Ci is.

"Why is the Holy Majesty outside?" Empress Chen Qingxuan walked out of the corridor slowly and walked in the direction of Chu Yue.

Chu Yue put his hands behind his back and turned around to support her. He forgot to look at the queen's belly and said with a smile on his eyes: "The belly seems to be a little bigger."

When Chen Qingxuan heard this, she couldn't help but feel happy, because this was the first time she saw Chu Yue showing a satisfied smile, and that happy expression was not faked in her opinion.

She touched her slightly protruding abdomen subconsciously, and leaned into Chu Yue's arms: "Mmm~"

Because she was pregnant, Chen Qingxuan became more courageous. Before, she would never take the initiative to talk about political affairs with Chu Yue, but now it was different. She had a bargaining chip to save her life - the unborn child in her belly.

"Why isn't there a slave by my side? If I fall down and hurt the child, I will feel bad." The truth of what he said was true and false, and it was completely different from the way he used to face Chen Qingxuan.

But maybe people in love have no brains, the queen didn't hear the irony in Chu Yue's words.

On the contrary, since Mo Ci was taken away by that old fox Xu Kaitai, Chu Yue paid more and more attention to him.

She was supported by Chu Yue and walked slowly towards the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Even though she was immersed in this false and vain happiness, Chen Qingxuan did not forget her purpose.

"Your Majesty, news came from Pingnan's cronies that Pingnan Marquis Wu Xu was gathering troops yesterday. I'm afraid he wants to directly confront you, Your Majesty."

Chu Yue stopped, he let go of the hand supporting the queen, and sat at his desk under her gaze.

"Pingnanhou... I want to see how capable he is."

If it was said that Marquis Pingnan wanted to rebel, Chu Yue would not believe it at all. Marquis Pingnan was timid and fearful, he was obsessed with people and things, and never had his own opinions and thoughts.

When Emperor Fei was in power, in the royal hunting grounds, Marquis Pingnan Wu Xu was once humiliated by an eunuch. Afterwards, he rushed to give the eunuch money, trying to get Emperor Ning Yuan to give him an extra piece of money through him. manor.

Afterwards, this incident was reported by an official, and he was ordered by the deposed emperor not to enter the palace again.

Since then, there has been no news of him in the court. Firstly, he was forbidden to enter the palace, and secondly, he was enjoying himself as his Marquis in Pingnan, preparing to spend his old age in peace.

The queen and her father probably thought that Wu Xu was just a person of no importance to the court, so they wanted to use him to give Chu Yue a bad start.

But their mistake was to use Wu Xu.

A man in Pingnanhou's Mansion was lying on the couch of a beauty, gently shaking a feather fan in one hand, and holding a delicate teacup in the other, looking carefree.

"Master Hou, the army has been assembled according to your order." His bodyguard Xie Yu was standing beside him and said.

Wu Xu curled his lips slightly, opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Then...go to Baisi."

"In this way, we are with the queen..." Xie Yu was still a little worried.

After all, gathering troops to the capital privately would be suspected of rebellion, and if one mistaken move, everything would be lost.

"From the beginning to the end, the Marquis never said that he wanted to be with the empress." Wu Xu shook his feather fan, his eyes were full of disdain for the empress.

On this day, Aeryun was walking into the side room of the Medicine Hall with a basin, intending to scrub Mo Ci's body, when he entered the room, he found something was wrong.

Although Mo Ci was lying on the bed, the quilt didn't fall on the floor, but a red string suddenly appeared on his wrist.

He hastily put down the water basin and went forward to raise Mo Ci's hand to examine carefully, when a voice sounded from behind him.

"He Qing...or Aeryun..."

It's Chu Yue!

Aeryun quickly stood up and used his body to block the bed, to be more precise Mo Ci on the bed.

He felt that the hairs all over his body were standing on end, and cold sweat was dripping from his forehead.

"I'm not an evil spirit, why did it make you so nervous?" Chu Yue approached him slowly.

"do not come!"

Aeryun anxiously wanted to push Chu Yue away, but in such a situation of disparity in strength, his push angered Chu Yue instead.

"I just want to bring back my Mo Ci, what does it have to do with you?"

Chu Yue pulled out his sword and put it on Aryun's neck. Under the moonlight, his frosted sword made of thousand-year-old black iron exuded a faint silver light, and it was even more chilling.
