Chapter 40;

But this Prince Yun is really bold.

He actually recruited [-] private troops, and they were stationed on the outskirts of the capital.

If this thing is exposed, no matter how much the emperor trusts him, he will definitely have his head moved.

Even worse, criminals will be implicated.

"What's the news from Prince Yun?"

During the day, she brought Qiu Yu back to Xu's house, and she asked Qiu Shuang to arrange someone to watch King Yun.

She is not at ease about this lustful man.

"He asked someone to investigate the matter between you and the Xu family, miss."

"He also investigated the matter of the right minister."

"Oh?"

Lu Yaoyao was a little surprised by King Yun's methods.

The right minister and the Lu family's affairs are very secretive, and he was able to investigate them in such a short time.

"It seems that I underestimated the Yunjun King."

"You keep talking."

"The people below came to report that King Yun is very dissatisfied with Xu Zhao's plan to use him. Those who are already subordinates will teach Xu Zhao tomorrow."

In this regard, Lu Yaoyao had expected it long ago, since he knew that King Yunjun was very powerful.

She had already guessed that this Prince Yun was not a fool, on the contrary he was a smart man with a city and means.

Otherwise, how could he have been domineering in the capital for so many years and continued to be favored?

"and then?"

"He plans to enter the palace tomorrow, please His Majesty grant you a marriage for him."

As soon as Qiushuang said this, Qiuyu was furious.

"This shameless dog king, how dare he miss our lady."

"Miss, you can't stop the slave this time, I'm going to kill this bastard right now."

Lu Yaoyao glanced at Qiu Yu calmly.

"I've told you many times, don't worry if you encounter problems."

She shook her head, Prince Yun is a good knife, so what a waste to just kill him like this?

Besides, she had expected that this guy would definitely take this step.

She was a little worried, but she didn't think the Emperor Dongzhou would agree to his request.

First of all, her current identity is the eldest lady of the Xu family. Even if she has a grudge with Xu Zhao, in the eyes of outsiders, she is considered a member of the Gao family.

Now the relationship between the Gao family and the Queen's faction is tense, and at this time King Yun intervenes.

Undoubtedly, it will give people the illusion that King Yun has fallen for the Gao family.

The reason why King Yun Jun has been favored and trusted for so many years is because he has not mixed with the various factions in the court and is the emperor's own person.

Now he sent a signal to the Gao family, not to mention whether the emperor would agree.

The queen wouldn't let that happen either.

Even, if you think about it a bit more, it's fine if King Yun doesn't ask for a marriage. Once he asks, his status in the eyes of the emperor will definitely decline.

Will the Son of Heaven continue to give favor to a person who has the intention to fall to other factions?

"Miss, this servant feels that we still need to make some preparations. If we don't spend [-], we are afraid of it."

Qiu Shuang is not an impulsive person, and she also said such words at this time.

It means that she is also a little worried.

"I know what you're worried about."

"Don't worry, now we have something good in our hands."

She raised the letter in her hand and continued; "Even if the emperor really agrees to grant the marriage, we can rely on this thing and let Prince Yun destroy it himself."

The two were quiet for a while, but the worried look on their faces did not fade much.

"Besides, even if he is not afraid of death, we can kill him directly, right?"

These words made Qiushuang and Qiuyu completely let go of their concerns.

"But the servant girl still doesn't understand something. Since you have such a plan, why don't you just do it once and for all?"

"Why do you want to gamble?"

Qiu Yu is a straightforward person, thinking that since they are already planning to kill him.

Why bother with these twists and turns, wouldn't it be good to just solve it?
"Do you still remember what I told you during the day to drive away tigers and devour wolves?"

Qiu Yu nodded again and again.

"This Prince Yun is a tiger."

Hearing her say that Prince Yun is a tiger, Qiu Yu immediately refuted.

"Where does he look like a tiger? Even if he looks like that, he is still a sick tiger."

"But the servant seems to understand what you mean."

"You want this guy to take the lead and bite Xu Zhao and Gao Yanming, right?"

As soon as she said this, Lu Yaoyao and Qiushuang both laughed.

Not bad, not bad, I still have some brains, not completely hopeless.

"King Yun continues to keep an eye on it. If there is any new trend, report it as soon as possible."

Qiushuang backed away.

The next day, Prince Yun got up early in the morning which was rare.

After washing and dressing, he went straight to the palace.

At this time, the early court had just begun, and as the emperor's confidant, he also had military power in his hands, so he also had a place in the court.

However, this guy is usually rather loose, and the emperor favored him, and he got the privilege of being free and early.

Simply put, it doesn't matter if you go to him early or not.

After waiting outside the imperial study for a long time, when he saw the emperor returning from ebb tide, he quickly stepped forward to salute.

Followed into the royal study.

"Fushan, why did you enter the palace so early today?"

Emperor Hongwen who had just sat down smiled and spoke.

The king of Yunjun was named Xiao Fushan, and he was cousin to the emperor.

"My brother has something to ask His Majesty."

While speaking, King Yun raised his robe and knelt down.

"Oh?"

Emperor Hongwen frowned, and the smile on his face became lighter.

As the king of Dongzhou, many things in the capital can't escape his eyes and ears.

He knew all about what King Yunjun did yesterday.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"The younger brother wants to ask for a marriage decree."

King Yun, who was kneeling on the ground, didn't notice the slight change in Emperor Hongwen's face.

He also smiled and said his purpose of coming today.

Now the smile on Emperor Hongwen's face disappeared.

Just now he roughly guessed the intention of Prince Yun's visit.

Although this guy is often domineering in the capital, but in the face of big right and wrong, King Yunjun has never let him down.

So even if he knew that he was often domineering outside, Emperor Hongwen didn't care much.

As a confidant of his emperor, if he doesn't even have this privilege, wouldn't that lower his status as an emperor?
If it was an ordinary woman, he would be very happy to agree to his request, as a favor for his cronies.

However, this time is different.

Lu Yaoyao is Xu Zhao's daughter, although she and Xu Zhao are at odds, the identity of the father and daughter is a fact.

Dongzhou Chaotang, who doesn't know that his biggest heart trouble is the big gentry behind Gao Xiang's faction?

In recent years, he has been trying every means to suppress the lineage of the gentry.

As his confidant, Yun Junwang didn't care if he didn't want to help, at least he should stay away, right?
It never occurred to him that he was still leaning upwards.

If he agrees to this matter, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to outsiders?

Thinking of this, his face darkened, his eyes were filled with anger, and the temperature in the imperial study also dropped accordingly.

The eunuchs in charge of serving all held their breath.

However, King Yunjun was still chattering about how good Lu Yaoyao was, and begging His Majesty for help.
