As soon as Yuxiao returned to Jiuyun Mountain, she had a very bad premonition when she saw her disciple Lu Di.

Seeing that the little girl and her mother, Tang Youning, were living happily together, Yuxiao couldn't bear to disturb the mother and daughter. She just warned: "Pindao will leave Yanyang City for a while. During this time, you mother and daughter are nowhere to be found." If you can’t go, just stay at Jiuyun Mountain.”

Lu Di was young, but for some reason, Tang Youning realized that Yu Xiao's departure might be related to the Bianhua flower mark on her daughter's forehead.

Recently, the Bianhua flower on my daughter's forehead has been visibly turning red day by day, and now it is blood red.

"Master, you must be careful when you go out."

Afraid that her daughter would hear something, Tang Youning just warned her tactfully.

"Ah."

Yuxiao responded softly, said goodbye to her mother and daughter, and went straight down the mountain, heading straight to the capital.

It was in the late autumn of October, after Emperor Ming Zhao's great gathering ceremony was held, that the court began to take on a new look.

The new emperor was diligent in government affairs and went to court early every day. While the courtiers were happy, they were also a little afraid, for fear that they might accidentally touch the new emperor's face and end up miserable.

As a result, many people began to turn to the new governor Li Shuang.

In order to please Li Shuang, many officials began to turn from Qu Yunchu to Li Buyao, Li Shuang's daughter, as the candidate for the throne.

On this day at court, Crescent Party officials and Yan Guan supported by Li Shuang had a heated debate in the court hall about the issue of the Queen.

"Qu's family is from a humble background, and it is said that she is a ghost and evil creature who borrows corpses to bring back souls. How can she be the queen of my Dayue Dynasty?"

An official from Li Shuang's party said righteously and sternly: "On the other hand, Miss Buyao, the daughter of the governor, even though she is only a concubine, has a gentle and dignified personality and knows how to be forbearing. She is really the mother of the country. I should make Miss Buyao my queen to rectify the Sixth Palace."

Seeing that many people supported Li Buyao as queen, Lu Wenqian, who was sitting on the dragon chair, couldn't help but lowered his eyebrows and looked at each other with Li Shuang.

But Li Shuang pretended not to see it. Although he knew that the new emperor did not have much affection for his daughter, but now that the new emperor had a rift with the Lu Qu family, it was the best opportunity to correct his daughter, and he must not let it go.

"Your Majesty, Mrs. Qu was instrumental in capturing and killing Zhang Jinnian, and she is also the wife of your majesty. If you abandon the main wife and support the concubine as the queen, it will encourage the spread of unhealthy trends in the government and the public."

The Crescent Party ministers were full of contempt for the group of officials in front of Li Shuang.

These weaklings really have no lower limit to curry favor with the new nobles of the imperial court.

"Your Majesty, don't listen to other people's slander."

Zhang Sheng tried his best to defend Qu Yunchu and said: "Everyone in Yanyang City can see what kind of person Qu Tianshi is. She has done a lot for the people in these years. Just killing the evil spirits has immeasurable merits. What if she is the same?" How can God tolerate her if there are ghosts and evil things? Then why do so many eminent monks and Taoists respect her?"

"That's just because of the Lu family and Your Majesty."

The Minister of Rites said confidently: "Who knows that the Lu family was the first well-known imperial merchant in the Dayue Dynasty. As the wife of the head of the Lu family, there is naturally no shortage of flatterers."

After looking at Li Shuang with respect, the Minister of Rites went on to say: "On the other hand, Miss Bu Yao is the daughter of the Imperial Envoy's family, but she is willing to humble herself and be a petty person. This determination is really rare and valuable. I sincerely ask your Majesty to do this for you." To show your benevolence, make Miss Buyao your queen."

Although Lu Wenqian did not want to see Qu Yunchu again, he had no intention of making Li Buyao his queen. Seeing the quarrel among the ministers in the court, he immediately withdrew from the court.

As soon as he returned to the dormitory, he heard that Lu Wenjing and Jiang Yunqing were brought into the palace, and he immediately summoned these two people.

"Brother."

As soon as Jiang Yunqing entered the palace, he heard that the court had been in a tense situation recently due to the matter of establishing a queen, and he quickly detailed what happened in Yanyang City to Lu Wenqian.

After hearing this, Lu Wenqian's face became uncertain for a while. He couldn't tell whether he was happy or uncomfortable. A steady stream of guilt lingered in his heart, leaving him speechless for a long time.

Yes, she shouldn't doubt her. If she really wanted to get rid of Zhang Jinnian, she could kill him in front of her that day, so why would she go back on her promise?

"Brother, not to mention that Aunt Li in the past was a scheming person. Today's Aunt Li is even less like she used to be. She is truly possessed by evil spirits, and her purpose is to sow discord between you and your second sister-in-law. It’s related.”Jiang Yunqing continued to talk earnestly: “When we came out of Yanyang City, my second sister-in-law fought with the evil spirits in Aunt Li’s body to save me and injured the fetal air, and almost had a miscarriage. Fortunately, she gave birth successfully. Baby girl.”

"Miscarriage?"

Lu Wenqian suddenly panicked. He could no longer suppress the panic in his heart and stood up quickly: "I have to rush back to Yanyang City immediately."

"Your Majesty, you have only just ascended the throne. It would be inappropriate to leave the capital rashly."

Lu Wenjing was a little worried.

Anyway, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, it will be a matter of time to welcome back the second sister-in-law.

"The third sister is taking care of Yanyang City, and the second sister-in-law will not make any mistakes."

Lu Wenjing advised calmly.

Lu Wenqian was eager to return home at this time, but he still had to take care of many things. He pushed Lu Wenjing onto the dragon chair and said with a smile: "Fourth brother, you have been with me for so many years, and you can manage the Lu family's business in an orderly manner. It’s no big deal.”

"Second brother, I..."

Lu Wenjing felt that his brother was suddenly extremely confused. Just as he was about to persuade him, he had already disappeared.

Jiang Yunqing saw this and quickly followed out.

Following Lu Wenqian to the outside of the Wende Palace, he saw many courtiers kneeling in the square outside the palace, pleading in unison: "Your Majesty, please put the country, the country, and the country first, establish a queen as early as possible, and establish a unified government."

Lu Wenqian was too lazy to pay attention and left the palace with a group of guards.

Jiang Yunqing saw that these people were all flattering Li Shuang. Maybe the newly powerful minister deliberately instigated these ministers to embarrass his brother.

"You have been thinking about making Miss Buyao your queen. At least you should find this person first."

Jiang Yunqing pouted and said: "She has already become a delicacy in the mouth of the devil. Do you want a female devil to be the mother of the world?"

After saying that, he hurriedly followed Lu Wenqian.

When the guards led by Lu Wenqian arrived outside the palace, they bumped into the Tuoman monk in a dense forest.

He stood upright on the official road, blocking everyone's way.

"Monk Tuoman, what do you want to do?"

Lu Wenqian asked confused.

"Your Majesty has just ascended the throne and cannot leave the capital for the time being."

Tuoman Divine Monk said solemnly.

Lu Wenqian was not familiar with this great monk, but he respected him because he was with his adoptive father. Now he dared to block his way, which seemed incompatible with his previous indifferent character.

"Does the holy monk also want to worry about my affairs?"

Lu Wenqian gave him a dissatisfied look: "The sacred monk is an outsider and should not interfere in secular affairs."

Not wanting to talk to him anymore, he whipped his horse and prepared to move on.

But before the soldiers and horses moved, the sky suddenly darkened, and a strong wind suddenly blew up, and everyone was swept up by the wind.

When the wind passed, people everywhere were on their backs and the sergeants were in a panic. Nothing was missing from the entire team, except for the emperor.
