Xu Qing walked out of the main room. Princess Mingyue habitually put her robe on Xu Qing and dressed him up.
After Xu Qing put on her clothes, she took Li Mingyue's delicate hand and said, "It's cold and windy outside. Go back to the house quickly."
Li Mingyue nodded and said softly: "Slow down when you go back."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Okay."
After sending Li Mingyue back to the house, Xu Qing turned around. He looked at the familiar courtyard wall that he had to look through every day. He was a little confused. He seemed to have heard some movement just now, but there was obviously nothing.
Maybe I felt wrong.
After Xu Qing left, Li Mingyue sat by the bed and began to look forward to tomorrow.
Another day has passed, and there are still twelve days left.

In the post house
King Loulan looked at the attendant in black and asked, "Can you see Princess Mingyue? Is she fat or thin? Is she beautiful or ugly?"
The attendant in black lowered his head and said: "Princess Mingyue is so soft and beautiful, just like a fairy, but..."
King Loulan asked impatiently: "But what?"
The black-clothed attendant thought about it for a while and then began to speak: "I saw Princess Mingyue having a private meeting with a man in the mansion..."
When King Loulan heard what the black-clothed attendant said, he angrily smashed the tea cup in his hand to the ground: "What did you say?! Princess Mingyue actually had a private meeting with a wild man in the palace?!"
The attendant in black saw the king getting angry and kneeling on the ground, lowering his head and not daring to speak.
In twelve days, the king will marry Princess Mingyue, and Princess Mingyue will also become the royal concubine of King Loulan. Now this is something that everyone in Loulan knows, but now their king has not married Princess Mingyue, and there is a problem on his head.
Who can bear to have a green hat in advance?
King Loulan asked in a deep voice: "Who is that wild man?"
The black-clothed attendant shook his head and said: "Reporting to the King, I don't know, but the person's perception is extremely sharp. If I hadn't hid quickly, I would have been discovered by him, but I think that the person's status is not too high in the Zhou Kingdom."
.”
King Loulan asked, "How can I see it?"
The black-clothed attendant said, "If this person has a very high status in the Zhou Kingdom and has all the power, why would he need to climb over the wall to secretly see Princess Mingyue? He is fully qualified to directly ask the emperor to grant a marriage, but this person is so sneaky that he can't even access the main entrance.
If you dare not leave, you must be far different from Princess Mingyue, so you have to climb over the wall and have a secret meeting."
King Loulan nodded and said: "In that case, we will tell His Majesty the Emperor to punish Princess Mingyue! Immediately kill the wild man who had a secret affair with the princess!"
The attendant in black immediately shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, think twice, you must not do it!"
King Loulan asked in a deep voice: "Why?"
The black-clothed attendant said, "If you inform Your Majesty, His Majesty the Emperor goes to arrest her with great fanfare, but it will only scare the snake. If there is no trace of that wild man, it will make people think that our Loulan is deliberately slandering the reputation of Princess Mingyue. Then I, Loulan, can
It’s passive.”
King Loulan snorted coldly: "Do you mean to let me turn a blind eye and just marry Princess Mingyue? Don't care about her past?"
The attendant in black shook his head quickly and said, "This is not what I mean. What I mean is that we can enter Princess Mingyue's mansion in advance. During the time when the wild man comes to have a private meeting with Princess Mingyue, Princess Mingyue will definitely evacuate the servants.
When the time comes, we can sneak in in advance and we will definitely not be discovered. When that wild man comes, we can capture him and hand him over to His Majesty the Emperor in front of Princess Mingyue. Wouldn’t that be beautiful?"
When King Loulan heard what the black-clothed attendant said, he nodded and said, "That makes sense."

The second day
On the streets of Beijing
Xiao Ye followed Xu Qing and said, "Brother Xu, we can't push back anymore, otherwise people will really think that we are here to cheat us out of food and drink."
Xu Qing asked: "Don't we have to discuss the territorial issue for at least ten days and a half?"
Xiao Ye nodded: "Based on past experience, not to mention ten days and half a month to discuss the issue of territorial ownership, a month is considered fast."
Xu Qing waved his hand and said, "Then don't worry, talking now might be in vain."
Xiao Ye looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Then when will we talk?"
Xu Qing said: "Let's postpone it for at least another ten days."
Xiao Ye looked at Xu Qing and asked: "Brother Xu, since you are interested in Princess Mingyue, why don't you just report to the general of Zhou State and ask for Princess Mingyue? Why are you so sneaky? Why don't you go through the front door."
Xu Qing glanced at Xiao Ye: "As long as I am a prince, this is what I will do."
If the two countries marry, it will at least be a marriage between royal family members or something like that.
What does Xu Qing do?
Xu Qing is a minister in Chu State!
The state of Zhou married a princess to a minister from a neighboring country?
As long as Emperor Zhou was not sick, he probably wouldn't be able to do such a ridiculous thing.
After Xu Qing climbed over the wall and entered the princess's house, Xiao Ye calculated with his fingers, and murmured while calculating: "If there are four women in the family who are pregnant at the same time, one or two of them can give birth to a son."
Come on? This is much better than betting all your chips on one person."
The more Xiao Ye calculated, the more he felt it made sense. Should he also learn from Brother Xu? If he had a few more concubines, would there be any need to worry about not having a son?
Sooner or later, he will be able to have four sons at the same time like Wanyan Khan, and he will never repeat the same thing every day!
But Xiao Ye quickly gave up this idea, because it was true that Wanyan Khan had four sons, but all three of them died...
Now Wanyan's department is left with a single child struggling to support him. Wanyan Khan is a perfect negative example, and he doesn't want to be like this.
Just when Xiao Ye was thinking about it and walked back, he saw two figures coming out of the secret place, and then with a puzzled expression on Xiao Ye's face, he climbed over the wall of Princess Mingyue's Mansion with difficulty.
Xiao Ye's eyes widened when he saw this scene. There was a burglary in broad daylight!
Or break into the princess's mansion and steal!
Are all Zhou's thieves so brave?
What a violation of public order!
It is far different from their Chu country!
Although the capital of Chu State is not as prosperous as Zhou State, our public security is good!
It's not like the Zhou Kingdom, where someone robbed the princess's mansion.
A sense of superiority arises spontaneously!
…
Xu Qing had just climbed over the three walls and entered the inner courtyard skillfully when he saw Li Mingyue already waiting in the courtyard.
Xu Qing walked over and took Li Mingyue's hand: "I'm just recovering from my illness, why did I come out now? Go inside quickly."
At this moment, Xu Qing noticed the sudden movement from the place where he climbed over the wall. He turned around and saw two men in Western costumes climbing in. One of the men in gorgeous clothes said: "Bold
Thief! He actually met the princess secretly?! This is simply a punishable crime! It’s really..."
Before the man could finish his words, Xiao Ye, who was behind him, kicked him to the ground: "You brave little thief! How dare you break into a house in broad daylight!"
