Chapter 242 The Beauty of the Country

In Imperial Capital, apart from Wanyan Lin reporting on time every night, Su Mianyue's life was so full that he didn't even know what day it was.

During this period of time, not only did he know some of the chess pieces left by Wanyan Zhen, but he also recruited some officials and bandits to go directly to the border areas. Wanyan Lin used the tactics of appeasement and did not return the treasures and other things in the hands of these officials and bandits to the treasury, but he let them take them to the border areas to pay for food. It also showed that the country was not thriving and that it was time for these people to be loyal. It also promised that once they made a contribution, they would be rewarded greatly, so that the officials and bandits would fight with high spirits.

In recent days, Su Mianyue had rejected many invitations from the official daughter. Only Su Mianyue from Yinn Yue's side replied. However, the two of them were meeting at a restaurant. Su Mianyue did not want to visit, especially when it was recently announced that Empress Dowager intended to choose the empress from the official daughter. And to enrich Wanyan Lin's harem with concubines.

Coincidentally, when Su Mianyue heard Yinn Yue's name on this list, it was not easy for Su Mianyue to ask directly about it, and Yinn Yue answered vaguely. As long as the edict had not been issued for a day, she would not consider herself as a would-be queen, and Yinn Yue also knew that Wanyan Lin treated Yinn Yue differently.

In that room, Retired Emperor was talking to Wanyan Lin. Retired Emperor immediately objected when he heard that Wanyan Lin intended to make Su Mianyue his wife.

Su mianyue's remarriage as a concubine was out of line with the law. Besides, Su Mianyue was the former queen of the Tianlan emperor. Once she was in the harem, she would certainly cause trouble for the Hengyuan, and perhaps even war. But today's Hengyuan is riddled with holes, how can they withstand the baptism of war.

"Father, I have made up my mind. Don't say that I do have her in my heart. Just because of what Mianyue has contributed to the Hengyuan, I can't let her suffer another heartbreak. She deserves the most honorable status in the world. No one else deserves to stand beside me." Wanyan Lin got up and knelt in front of Retired Emperor's bed. He said in a sincere tone, "Didn't the father rule out the difficulties before he made the empress mother his queen? As an emperor, if you want to be wronged by your own woman, you don't want this throne."

"Are you going to trade the Hengyuan for that woman?" Retired Emperor was so angry that he was grateful to Su Mianyue for saving his life, and now all that was left was disgust.

Wanyan Lin was the emperor, but he was bewitched by a woman. How could Retired Emperor not be angry?

Like Empress Dowager, Retired Emperor also wanted to kill Su Mianyue, but unlike Empress Dowager who wanted to take over the harem alone, Retired Emperor considered the country as an emperor.

If Su Mianyue knew that she had spent so much effort to save the two of them, and that they both wanted to kill her at this moment, he would definitely regret the act of saving people back then. It would be easier to kill both of them. Not everyone had the right to take Su Mianyue's life.

"Please calm down your father. I will never hand over my children's affairs, but I will never be bullied by my children's women." Wanyan Lin was adamant and refused to give in.

Retired Emperor pointed a finger at Wanyan Lin, his face purple with anger but he could not speak for a long time. This was the prelude to suffocation.

Seeing this, Wanyan Lin quickly got up to give Retired Emperor a ride, feeling very guilty.

Retired Emperor managed to catch his breath and pushed Wanyan Lin away with all his might, "If I knew you were such a loving child, I shouldn't have raised you as an emperor. You wanted to kill me!"

"Your son is unfilial. Please calm down your father." Wanyan Lin bowed to the side, still holding his own opinion, but his eyes drooped, not daring to look at Retired Emperor's disappointed and angry eyes.

In his heart, Retired Emperor had always been the existence he looked up to. He had never given Wanyan Lin such a look and had always been proud of Wanyan Lin.

But today, Retired Emperor was doomed to be disappointed. Su Mianyue was the only thing Wanyan Lin wanted to pursue. Unlike other things, he had to do it.

"You..." Retired Emperor uttered a trembling word, feeling a foul breath in his throat, but he was speechless.

Wanyan Lin hurriedly sent for the imperial physician, and the atmosphere in the palace became solemn, and Wanyan Lin's brows never relaxed.

If Retired Emperor publicly expressed his disapproval of Su Mianyue, the civil and military forces of the manchu dynasty would definitely stop him. By then, it would be difficult for Wanyan Lin to do it alone...

There were no two ways in this world. Wanyan Lin really didn't know what to do to make everyone happy. For the first time, there was a sense of dejection in his body. It was when he was sent to be a proton, and Wanyan Lin also left with ambition. The fire after that filled Wanyan Lin with hatred and wanted to revenge on those who had harmed him. He wanted to stand in the highest position to protect those who supported him and loved him from oppression.

With a gentle smile, Wanyan Lin could only feel the bitterness in his eyes and heart.

"Your majesty, 800 li, please hurry back to the imperial study." Wanyan Lin's heavy heart was interrupted by the grim-faced gray-robed report.

Another meaning of 800 li's urgency was that the border was restless. Wanyan Lin suddenly felt a wave of pain in his head and uneasiness in his heart.

Looking at Retired Emperor's bedroom, Wanyan Lin told him that there was nothing on Retired Emperor's side for anyone to report to him in time, and immediately walked towards the imperial study.

In the imperial study, a dusty body could not conceal the blood on his body. The soldier knelt on the ground with a face full of vegetables. He held up a letter with both hands holding an urgent report and reported in a weak but quick tone, "The Tianlan outside Linzhou is under the pressure of a million troops. This is a note written by the general soldier. Please read it to the emperor."

Before the soldiers could finish speaking, Wanyan Lin had quickly opened the music and started to look at it. His beautiful brows quickly furrowed, not only because of the plight of the Tianlan's millions of troops, but also for the other party's reasons to send Wanyan Lin back to Su Mianyue, the queen of the Tianlan he had taken away. It also demanded a series of huge compensation that the Hengyuan could not afford at all, or else the army of the Tianlan would be flattened.

However, Wanyan Lin never thought of sending Su Mianyue back to the Tianlan, especially Su Mianyue's high status in the hearts of the people of the Hengyuan. If he could not keep Su Mianyue, perhaps those people who just had enough to eat would be worried that the court could not give them a stable life and riot again.

Moreover, Wanyan Lin could not afford to lose this person, give up his beloved woman and compensate all over the country, Wanyan Lin would rather have a bloody battle.

With Wanyan Lin's financial resources, he was not afraid of not having military supplies, but now the Hengyuan's military strength was insufficient. The drawback of the country's three governances was to disperse the military strength. Wan yanlin's openly available military strength was less than 300,000, but the dark forces could not be used. Otherwise, how could he guard against Wanyan Lei and Wanyan Zhen?

Wanyan Lin angrily slapped the music on the imperial case and asked coldly, "The Tianlan has millions of troops pressing on the border. With such a big move, Xu Ke, as the general soldier of Linzhou City, didn't notice it in advance?"

"If we go back to the emperor, the Tianlan army is secretive and has been investigating the people who come and go between the two countries for nearly a month. No one has sent any news." The soldier was so frightened that his body went limp, and he fainted immediately after saying this with trembling voice.

"Useless things." Wanyan Lin cursed and asked gray to make arrangements.

The soldier in charge of delivering military information was physically very strong, but he could not bear to travel day and night even if he was beaten by iron, not to mention under the wrath of the son of heaven, it was already good for the soldier to reply to this sentence.

Wanyan Lin thought for a moment, and immediately sent someone to deliver an audience to Han Zezhong, and told gray not to send the news to Su Mianyue temporarily, lest Su Mianyue would be worried.

As an emperor, as a man, Wanyan Lin did not want to rely on women for everything, especially the woman he loved.

In addition to the need for Su Mianyue's help, the previous actions were also intended to keep Su Mianyue by his side, but the situation is different now.

Rubbing his brows, Wanyan Lin knew that it would be harder for him to marry Su Mianyue, but he couldn't let him go.
