Chapter 317 Gathering in the East Palace

Chapter 317 Gathering in the East Palace

General Mu left the room.

Mu Feng tidied himself up. Thinking of his embarrassing behavior in front of Chu Li when he was drunk, he decided to go see her and make things clear.

Chu Li returned to the East Palace early in the morning and found Pei Ye sitting at her door with a pale face.

"Commander Pei." Chu Li called him.

Pei Ye slowly opened his eyes and saw Chu Li. He smiled weakly, "Your Highness is finally back."

Chu Li stepped forward to help him feel his pulse, "You fell into the water, and you are still standing outside the door in the wind."

Pei Ye looked at Chu Li with red eyes, "I felt uncomfortable all over. I came to look for you last night, but you were not there."

"Are you stupid? You're just sitting here waiting. Are you risking your life?" Chu Li looked at Pei Ye speechlessly.

"I'll have your subordinates call in the imperial physician."

Pei Ye pulled her sleeve and asked, "Aren't you a doctor?"

Chu Li looked at the two imperial guards and said, "Take your commander to the side room, light a charcoal fire, and cover him with a quilt to keep him warm."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Pei Ye pulled her sleeve again, "Your Highness, are you leaving again?"

Chu Li said unhappily: "I'll go make some medicine for you."

Pei Ye curled the corners of his lips slightly and let go of Chu Li.

Chu Li was making medicine for Pei Ye when Ye Hanting arrived.

"What is your highness doing?"

Chu Li placed the herbs in the medicine furnace and told one of the imperial guards, "Give it to Commander Pei to drink in half an hour."

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Kong Wu, ask the kitchen to make some ginger soup and send it over."

Kong Wu went to do it.

Chu Li patted the remaining medicinal residue on his hands.

"Commander Pei probably came to see me for something. I was exposed to the wind in front of the door all night last night and caught a cold."

Ye Hanting's eyes turned cold. What a Pei Ye! He started to use the method of self-torture to make Chu Li feel sorry for him.

In the side room, Pei Ye was lying on the bed, covered with a thick quilt, listening to the conversation between Ye Hanting and Chu Li.

Why is Ye Hanting here again?

He finally created an opportunity to be alone with Chu Li.

Xiao Dezi's voice came, "Your Highness, General Mu is here to see you and ask if you have time to meet guests."

Chu Li thought that Mu Feng must have come because of what happened last night, "General Mu, please come to the hall. I will be there right away."

"Yes, Your Highness."

Pei Ye let out a long sigh. Why did so many people come to see Chu Li?

There is no first come first served, he was obviously the first one to arrive.

"Sir, I'm going to see my uncle. Please wait for me in the study."

Ye Hanting nodded slightly. On the surface, he was still Chu Li's husband, so he had to act well.

When Mu Feng saw Chu Li approaching from afar, his eyes fell on Chu Li's waist. Why had he never noticed before that Chu Li's waist was thinner than that of an average man?

Although she disguised herself deliberately, she still couldn't hide her feminine temperament.

Chu Li approached and Mu Feng withdrew his gaze.

"Uncle!" Chu Li came in happily.

She guessed that her uncle must be telling her the secret of his life, so she closed the door from the outside.

Mu Feng thought about how he had embarrassed himself in front of her, and his expression was a little unnatural. He coughed lightly, "I was drunk last night."

"Oh, it's human nature. If a person has never been drunk once in his life, he will have missed an experience." Chu Li replied indifferently.

Mu Feng smiled slightly, "I told you about my life experience last night, right?"

Chu Li nodded, "Uncle, congratulations on having another family."

Mu Feng's heart trembled. Chu Li was so warm-hearted. She always knew where others were most hurt.

It is a sad thing that you cannot be reunited with your family and are sent away by your family.

But for her, it became an extremely happy thing.

Chu Li used the warmest words to soothe his embarrassment and sadness.

There was a hint of tenderness in Mu Feng's eyes, "You're right, I have another home."

Chu Li said proudly: "My little uncle is very powerful. You have a great general like my grandfather as your foster father, and a first-rank marquis as your grandfather. It's great to have two big mountains to lean on!"

Mu Feng looked at her with envy and said lovingly, "If you want, I can be your backer."

Chu Li was slightly stunned and met Mu Feng's doting eyes.

Her eyes suddenly brightened up. It’s stable, it’s stable, this wave is stable!

Having the help of my uncle on the road to becoming queen is like having wings for a tiger!

If my uncle doesn’t like someone, he can beat them into a beef ball with one punch.

"Uncle, please try this year's new tea. I will really depend on you in the future." Chu Li happily poured tea for Mu Feng.

Mu Feng's eyes flickered, and what he said seemed to be different from what Chu Li imagined.

But as long as she is happy.

"Your Highness, the teacher is ready to teach."

There was a knock on the door. Chu Li looked at Mu Feng and said, "Uncle, don't go. Let's have lunch together."

When Mu Feng heard that Ye Hanting was also there, he nodded and said, "Okay."

When Ye Hanting saw Chu Li coming from the hall, he sat up straighter and pretended to read a book.

"Sir." After Chu Li came in, Ye Hanting raised his eyes and reminded her, "Close the door."

Chu Li tilted his head to look at him. Why close the door in broad daylight?

She pretended not to hear and sat opposite Ye Hanting.

Ye Hanting took out a ruler and threatened her deliberately, "Don't listen?"

Chu Li hung his head and closed the door.

"Ye Hanting, what do you want to do?" Chu Li asked in a low voice after closing the door.

Ye Hanting put down the ruler and said, "When teaching, you cannot be disturbed by the outside world. Pei Ye is groaning in the side room, and General Mu is also there. How can this master concentrate on teaching?"

Chu Li folded his hands on the table, like a good and obedient student.

"Sir, what are you going to learn today?"

"Tell me some history of Daxia that you don't know."

Chu Li became interested instantly.

Daxia is the boss among all the countries and occupies the dominant position in this strange world.

Only by fully understanding Daxia and being restrained and threatened by it can we know ourselves and the enemy.

Ye Hanting explained in detail the history of the Great Xia Kingdom and the current royal system of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Only then did Chu Li know that the old emperor of Daxia Kingdom, Ye Hanting's grandfather, had only two sons.

It is said that everyone in your family is a romantic.

There was only one queen in Ye Hanting's uncle's harem, and the two of them had a son and a daughter.

Prince Yu also has only one princess consort, and a son and a daughter.

Chu Li held his chin and listened attentively.

That's not right. If the Emperor of Daxia is so infatuated, why is he still hanging out with Princess Yu?

Chu Li withdrew her thoughts. Other people’s private affairs had nothing to do with her, so she shouldn’t think too much about it.

She continued to listen to Ye Hanting talking about how there was no dispute over the succession in the royal family of Daxia, and that the eldest prince Jun Yuan would be the future emperor of Daxia.

There is no suspense at all.

Why was Princess Jun Yaohua of Da Xia so bold to come to Da Chu, and why did Emperor Qingyuan serve her carefully, fearing any neglect?

It turned out that it was because Daxia’s national strength was enough to raze Dachu to the ground.
