Remarrying Chun Yuan

Chapter 441 Vision

Wei Gongming went up to the city gate tower and conveyed the Chu emperor's message.

"She will not stay at the post station prepared in the palace; she will stay at the Prince Chun's Mansion."

Liu Yuechu: "..." She was speechless with shock and could only look at Yuan Cuo.

Yuan Cuo chuckled, then laughed even more heartily. He ignored the Chu Emperor's request and looked at Wei Gongming, "Should I congratulate Commander Wei for finding a way out of a dead end?"

Wei Gongming's eyes narrowed, and he instantly understood Yuan Cuo's meaning.

“It shouldn’t have happened in the first place…” He didn’t mention Qin Muyan’s name, but he understood that Yuan Cuo was referring to Qin Muyan’s collusion with Chu Lan.

"Then let her stay at Prince Chun's Mansion, as long as she doesn't mind that it's dilapidated and has old things that haven't been cleaned up yet." Yuan Cuo agreed immediately.

Wei Gongming thought it would take a long time to negotiate, but to his surprise, Yuan Cuo actually agreed.

"Aren't you going to see him?" He noticed that Yuan Cuo showed no intention of going down to see the Chu Emperor.

Yuan Cuo shook his head. "Since she is going to Prince Chun's residence, her identity today is not that of the Empress of Chu... Besides, the palace has already prepared for an audience tomorrow, so it will be tomorrow."

"There was an unexpected incident today, and I apologize for not being able to entertain you properly. Please forgive me."

"Also, remember to keep your promise to Wei Tianxuan, Doctor Chu. She has committed so many atrocities, it's time for her to pay for them."

After saying this, Yuan Cuo took Liu Yuechu's hand and slowly descended the city gate tower.

Wei Gongming couldn't figure out what he was up to; he just thought he was acting a bit crazy.

Since you've come all this way, why don't you see me?

The key question is, why go to Prince Chun's residence? If Emperor Qi Xiao knew about this, wouldn't he be furious?

Wei Gongming suddenly remembered his past life.

In his previous life, Emperor Qi Xiao was angered to death by Qin Muyan. Could it be that in this life he will be angered to death by Yuan Cuo?

But no matter who angers him to death, it has nothing to do with him. In his current situation, he only needs to follow orders.

He quickly and hurriedly went down from the city gate tower to report to the Chu Emperor.

When the Chu Emperor heard that Yuan Cuo had agreed so readily, he laughed heartily, "Very well, I will not mind that the place is old and worn out, we will live there."

Wei Gongming accepted the order and led the Chu troops toward the city.

In the still of the night, the gentle thud of hooves echoed through the streets, each sound reaching the ears. The sleeping citizens of the capital were awakened by this prolonged sound, and those driven by curiosity donned their clothes to see what was happening.

But upon seeing the men and their attire, my drowsiness vanished instantly.

This is not the army of Qi, it is the army of Chu!

Why did the Chu army enter the city in the middle of the night? Upon closer inspection, there were also guards from the Great Qi Golden Feather Guard nearby, clearly indicating that an important figure had entered the capital.

But there is probably only one person who can be protected by both the State of Chu and the State of Qi.

But wasn't the Chu Emperor supposed to arrive tomorrow? How come he's already entered the city tonight?

The people called out to their families and neighbors, and in that moment, the extinguished lights were relit, and faces appeared along the quiet streets, all wanting to catch a glimpse of the legendary Empress of Chu.

But they will indeed be disappointed.

Because the curtains of Emperor Chu's carriage were thick, it was impossible to see what was inside, or even whether there was anyone inside.

Having lived in the Great Qi Dynasty for two generations, Wei Gongming naturally knew the location of the Prince Chun's Mansion.

But looking at it now, he couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Although Yuan Cuo had mentioned beforehand that the mansion was somewhat old and dilapidated, he hadn't expected it to be this run-down!

"Your Majesty..." Wei Gongming still went over, after all, this place was probably hard to live in, and it would definitely need to be cleaned for a whole day.

But the Chu Emperor seemed to have anticipated this, and ordered, "Send people in to set up tents, and sleep in the tents at night."

Wei Gongming: "..." He was truly surprised to learn that setting up camp inside a mansion was a first for him.

The attendants and guards of Chu and Qi acted immediately upon receiving the order.

The Chu Emperor remained in his carriage, quietly dozing off, half asleep and half awake.

She felt that the moonlight was somewhat bright today, so she drew back the carriage curtain, wanting to look up and see if the moon over Qi was any different from that over Chu.

But as soon as the curtain was drawn, revealing a gap, she saw a figure looking in her direction from the bell tower of the Yonghe Hall in the palace.

She couldn't see who that person was.

Yet they could guess who he was.

A slight smile played on her lips as she lowered the curtain of the carriage.

Emperor Qi Xiao was indeed on the platform of the bell tower, looking at Prince Chun's mansion with a telescope used by the Imperial Observatory to observe celestial phenomena.

He had intended to rest well tonight and wait to see her tomorrow.

Even in his sleep, he was still rehearsing the scene of meeting the Chu Emperor, tossing and turning, unable to sleep soundly at all.

Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he received an urgent notification that the Chu Emperor had entered the city overnight, completely ruining his plans!

This woman never plays by the rules.

They even deliberately provoked him into a rage.

Especially after hearing that Wei Tianxuan had invited Yuan Cuo and Liu Yuechu, he wished he could just go and tear Wei Tianxuan apart. Why couldn't he just ignore her for a whole night?

Fortunately, someone had already rushed to the palace to report the incident. Although Yuan Cuo and Liu Yuechu went there, they only stood on the city gate tower and looked out, and did not meet the Chu Emperor in person.

Emperor Qi Xiao finally calmed down a bit.

At least Yuan Cuo did not abandon the dignity of the Great Qi.

Unlike Qin Muyan, who was far to the west, he actually went to welcome the Chu Emperor and accompanied him to sweep the tomb of Prince Chun. As a prince of the Great Qi, he had long lost his backbone. How could such a person inherit the throne of the Great Qi and bring benefits to the people of the Great Qi?

"His Majesty……"

Seeing that Emperor Qi Xiao still refused to leave, and that the night wind was still a bit chilly, Cheng Hai said, "It's cold, please put something on. The Empress and Consort Yu already know about this and have asked His Majesty what to do. Do we not need to wait at the city gate tomorrow?"

"What's the point of going? They've already entered the city. Let them all rest. They won't need to get up early to get ready tomorrow," Emperor Qi Xiao scoffed.

The imperial harem had been preparing for this day for a long time and had spent countless sums of money, but they never expected that her sudden attack would completely disrupt everything.

Cheng Hai agreed, but he was also full of helplessness.

"I'm going back to sleep too."

Emperor Qi Xiao angrily threw down the telescope, only to realize that it was quite heavy, and his arm ached from holding it.

Cheng Hai breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, but when he looked up, he saw that Emperor Qi Xiao was still gazing into the distance, his feet not moving at all.

"Your Majesty?" he couldn't help but call out softly.

Emperor Qi Xiao pursed his lips, sighed deeply, and could only turn and leave.

If only he weren't the emperor of the Great Qi.

He will definitely leave the palace, rush to Prince Chun's residence, and personally confront this woman about why she faked her death and abandoned him...
