Interesting words?

Hua Mujiao raised her head and looked at Bai Zhan.

She subconsciously felt that Shangguan Yi's interesting words had something to do with Bai Zhan Ke.

"What do you mean?"

Seeing that Hua Mujiao wanted to hear more, Shangguan Yi's smile widened.

He poured himself a cup of water and waited for his tongue to moisten before he opened his mouth to speak.

"Just now in the imperial study, the Southern King said that your husband should call him 'Royal Grandfather', and that your imperial uncle …"

"Shut up!"

However, before Shangguan Yi could finish her sentence, Bai Zhan gre cut her off.

Shangguan Yi didn't need to continue speaking, Hua Mu Jin had already guessed what the interesting words were.

She raised her eyebrows and looked at Bai Zhan's dark face. She couldn't help but smile.

"Um, according to seniority, you should call the South King 'grandpa', the Southern Kingdom's crown prince, and the first prince. One is my youngest royal uncle, one is my eldest royal uncle, and the other is my queen. I'm looking for my family, so you won't be unhappy, right?"

Hua Mujiao blinked her large eyes, her eyes filled with an unstoppable love.

Looking at her, Bai Zhan Ke's sword-like eyebrows trembled, but he didn't say anything.

Shangguan Yi, on the other hand, looked as if she didn't want to be a big deal. She stared at Bai Zhan Ke, waiting to see what he would say next.

"Bai Zhan Ke, you know, I was raised in Shang Shu Manor before, and the people there are not good to me. Now that I finally know my mother's identity, we can be considered to have found relatives. For my sake, just call them as I please, okay? "

"…"

For a long time, Bai Zhan Ke didn't reply.

And his awkward expression really caused Hua Mujiao to be unable to stop herself from laughing.

In the end, she was still unable to hold back and laughed out loud.

"Puff …" "Alright, I'm just teasing you. See how it makes things for you, it's as if I'm trying to kill you."

Hua Mujiao pursed her lips, amused by the look on her face.

"Jin'er, you're being naughty again!"

"…"

As the soft voice of Bai Zhan Ke faded, this time it was Hua Mujiao's turn to be speechless.

She could clearly see the black eyes of Bai Zhan Ke, as if to say that he would punish her for teasing him.

Hua Mu Jin turned to Shangguan Yi, winking at her for help.

Shangguan Yi coughed lightly, showing that he didn't want to help her.

But he still looked at the embroidered box on the table and asked, "What is this? The box is so delicate. "

Hearing this, Hua Mujie hurriedly replied, "The wedding dress, Huang, ahem, the queen sent over. She said that the Southern King ordered her mother to sew it in the past."

"Wedding dress?"

Shangguan Yi didn't understand. Hua Mujiao was already a concubine of Bai Zhan; what was the meaning of giving away a wedding dress?

"Does the queen intend to have you married again?"

As soon as Shangguan Yi finished speaking, a chilling aura emanated from Bai Zhan Ke who was sitting by the bed.

Hua Mujiao glared at Shangguan Yi, seemingly spouting nonsense at her.

She awkwardly smiled and explained, "It's not what he meant. Don't listen to his nonsense. The queen only wanted to see what I looked like in my wedding dress, so she sent it over. "Furthermore, she also said that she wanted you and me to hold a wedding banquet in the Southern Kingdom. This wedding dress was meant for me to wear at the wedding banquet."

Looking at Hua Mujie's flustered explanation of the situation, Bai Zhan Ke's chilliness vanished.

Suddenly, he asked, "Do you want to do it?"

Hua Mujiao was stunned for a moment. She looked at him, unable to react.

He asked back, "What did you just say?"

"I ask you, do you want to marry me?"

Hearing this, Hibiscus vulgaris nodded like she was pounding garlic.

"Yes."

"Then do it."

After a while, Hua Mu Jin was stunned.

She had not expected Bai Zhan Ke to agree.

As the king of Huan Yue Country, logically speaking, holding a wedding banquet with his concubine in another country was unreasonable.

But he actually agreed without the slightest hesitation?

"Are you sure you want to marry me in the Southern Kingdom? "If this were to come back to Huan Yue, would …"

Hua Mujiao was worried about those stubborn ministers of the imperial court. After knowing about this, they would say something that would not conform with the rules.

"I have the final say on this matter."

Looking at Bai Zhan Ke's resolute eyes, Hua Mujiao felt that this man was worth entrusting his entire life to.

And she hadn't misjudged him.

"Alright."

Beside the table, Shangguan Yi looked a little disappointed.

However, in an instant, he returned to his original appearance.

"Aiyo, I was wondering if all of you could not be so numb, causing me to feel uncomfortable all over. Come on, this general will go and prepare the national code for the future. You guys continue to get tired of it, this general will not be bothered to read it. "

With that, Shangguan Yi got up and walked out.

As night fell, a banquet began in the palace. The main theme of the banquet was to apologize to the Crown Prince of the State of Heaven.

And when the queen learned of this, she quarrelled with the King of the South again.

As a precaution, the Southern King did not explain to the Queen why the Prince of Heaven had been released.

The Queen did not attend the banquet. It should have been an extremely lively banquet, but only the Southern King and the Crown Prince attended. Even people from other countries would have a future.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the Southern Kingdom's national code.

The entire Southern Kingdom was celebrating.

Hua Mujie was forced to stay in the palace because of her wounds.

Thus, she did not know what had happened during the national code.

"Esteemed … Esteemed wangfei, this isn't good …"

In the morning, Hibiscus vulgaris was still having breakfast when the green bamboo hastily ran in.

"The Empress is eating. It is not proper for you to be so flustered!"

Nan Ge, who was standing to one side, looked at the panicking green bamboo and scolded.

Seeing the serious expression on Nan Ge's face, Green Bamboo was slightly afraid.

"What happened this morning?"

Although it was difficult for people to get close to Nan Ge, they still got along quite well.

However, the green bamboo had not come into contact with him before, so it was somewhat afraid.

"To reply esteemed Empress, this servant had just gone to the kitchen when I heard a few palace maids say that the Dragon Cage of the Southern Kingdom had just left the palace when I encountered an assassin …"

"What?"

Hearing this, Hua Mu Jin abruptly stood up.

However, she had forgotten that she was wounded. Because she was too excited, the wound had been torn open.

"Hiss …"

"Empress, Empress, are you alright?"

Seeing Hua Mujie's pained expression, the bamboo hastily stepped forward and supported her.

Nan Ge, who was at the side, originally wanted to go over and help, but after reaching out his hand, he retracted it.

"You just said that the king has met an assassin? Is anyone hurt? "

Although the wound was very painful, Hua Mujiao was still worried. She wanted to know if the queen and the king, as well as the members of the White Battlefield, were injured.

"This servant only heard that the palace maid said that she had met an assassin. As for whether or not anyone was injured, this servant does not know."

Hua Mu Jin became a bit anxious and hurriedly said to Nan Ge, "Nan Ge, go take a look and protect your master. If you have the ability, then please protect the king and queen well."

"Empress, it is your duty to protect you well."

Although Hibiscus vulgaris had its orders, Nan Ge had no intention of following them.

Hua Mujiao covered the place where the wound was, and looked at Nan Ge, "What kind of duty or duty is this? I'm very safe in the palace, don't you worry about your master's safety?"

Nan Ge's performance made Hua Mu Jin a bit angry.

Even though it was an order from the White War Chi, he was a little too inflexible.

"Green Bamboo, go find an imperial physician to take a look at the Empress's wounds."

"Yes, this servant will go now."

Nan Ge didn't pay attention to Hua Mujiao's words and only instructed the green bamboo.

The green bamboo was worried about Hua Mu Jin, so it naturally obeyed Nan Ge's words.

After helping Hua Mu Jin to sit down, the bamboo shoot ran out in a hurry.

Nan Ge looked around and used his Qi to check that there was no one around. Then he walked up to Hua Mujiao and said, "Empress, don't worry. Those assassins are General Shangguan and Luo Chen."

"What?"

The words of Nan Ge made Hua Mu Jin unable to believe it.

She even thought that she had misheard him.

"This subordinate only knows that this is Master's arrangement. If the Empress wishes to know more, wait for Master to come back and ask Master yourself. "

Hua Mu Jin was completely stupefied.

The arrangement of the White Battlefield? She didn't know why he did it.

If Shangguan Yi and Luo Chen hurt the Southern King and the Queen, she wouldn't forgive him.

But she did not believe that this was what Bai Zhan Ke would do.

"Nan Ge, is your master hiding something from me?"

Hua Mujie always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Regarding this matter, the Empress should ask the mistress herself. This subordinate is excused from speaking too much."

Nan Ge hadn't mentioned this matter to begin with, but he couldn't bear to see Hua Mujiao pull at her wound in worry, so he figured out that the assassins were Shangguan Yi and Luo Chen.

Hua Mujie also knew that Nan Ge was unwilling to say, so no matter how she asked, she couldn't get anything out of him.

"If you don't want to say it, then so be it. I'm tired, you can leave. "

"Yes."

After returning to her bedroom, Hua Mujiao carefully thought about it, but still couldn't make heads or tails of it.

Because she was worried, she could only send Green Bamboo out to investigate.

"Empress, I heard from the court ladies that the king and queen are fine, but that the crown prince of the State of Tianzhao was kidnapped by an assassin. I don't know where he went."

"The Crown Prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom?"

After hearing what the green bamboo said, Hua Mujiao suddenly understood.

She still hadn't figured out her feelings, but she finally understood why the Southern King placed the Crown Prince of the State of Tianzhao on the table and also held the banquet.

Was this the plan that her royal grandfather and Bai Zhan had come up with to deal with the crown prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom?

But...

"Other than the crown prince of the Skylaurel Kingdom, are there any other injuries?"

"It is said that a few of the guards were injured, but none of them were seriously injured. The king has already ordered the Crown Prince of the Southern Kingdom to take his men to chase after the assassins. "However, this servant feels that the Crown Prince of Heaven's Reflection is deserving of his life. Who asked him to injure the Empress? Even if he were to be killed, he would still be deserving of it."

Green Bamboo hated the crown prince of the Skyrise Kingdom to the bone.

After all, he had injured his master and almost caused him to lose his prince.

Hua Mujiao shook her head and sighed. She already told Bai Qi to let her handle this matter, but who would've thought that he would actually make a move.

Furthermore, it was a conspiracy with the Southern King.

However, she felt that what happened here probably wasn't as simple as she thought.

She always felt that she was being used in this matter.
