Seeing that Li Dongkui looked a little hesitant, he turned around and said: "Of course Mr. Li is a master, and of course he is different from those yellow-haired girls. But you should understand that the most important thing about being born in the royal family is not how high your martial arts is, but how ruthless your methods are. Chu is

The Ai family's children know their abilities best. You see, as long as he pays attention to his affairs, it will be no problem. One day, he will understand the painstaking efforts of the Ai family! Sir, you just need to stay with Chu.

, just take good care of his safety for the Ai family."

After sending Li Dongkui away, the maid looked at the Queen Mother who was repairing the branches and hesitated.

"Why are you hesitating? If you have something to say, just say it."

"Yes, Queen Mother. It's that young lady from the Yuan family. She tried to break in with a jade sign a few days ago, but the servant stopped her."

"Well done." Feng's eyes narrowed and she said coldly: "Why, the Ai family is not satisfied with letting the imperial doctor cure the poison on her body? She is just a chess piece. When she was so good-looking, she was not worthy of the king.

Son, not to mention the current situation of being inhuman and ghostless! If the order continues, she will not be able to enter even the four palace gates."[

"yes."

=============================================

Autumn, the third year of Dongling Kaiyuan period.

This is the third year that Emperor Wu Ximen ascended the throne, and the imperial capital is as prosperous as ever. But underneath the prosperity, there is a darkness that cannot be concealed, and it is constantly exuding a rancid smell.

To be fair, Emperor Wu was a rare wise king who governed the country, far beyond the comparison of his vulgar brother who died on the bed. It is a pity that the decline of Dongling has lasted for nearly a hundred years, and it has long since reached the end of the road. In fact, it is difficult to live up to its reputation in such a huge gold and jade skin.

It's just a mess.

Three years after Emperor Wu ascended the throne, even if he knew clearly where the cancer that harmed Dongling was, he could not and did not dare to remove it easily. A single move could affect the whole body, whether it was the clansmen and clansmen in the world who were fed by the money.

Regardless of the fat-bellied corrupt officials, they are the biggest borers in Dongling, and their intricate network of relationships also supports the most critical operations of the entire country.

Now that they have just turned 30 years old, the two of them have made no secret of their ambition to conquer all directions.

On the surface, the three parties were polite and courteous in their interactions, but secretly, the confrontations of tearing down walls and digging foundations never stopped. As time went by, the atmosphere gradually became stalemate. The numerous "petty fights" on the border also escalated.

To increase the trend of escalation, a few months ago in Suitang, Dongling and Beichuan even fought a medium-sized battle, with more than a thousand casualties on both sides.

Although the two countries were reluctantly suppressed in the end, the hypocritical curtain of "peace" has been vaguely pulled back. The nobles and wealthy businessmen in the capital are living and drinking every day, but the poor people living in the border areas have already felt the flames of war.

approaching.

At this time, the position of Nanzhao, which is the weakest among the four countries but has always maintained a neutral position, suddenly becomes extremely important. Nanzhao has always had its queen ascend the throne. The current queen is the 23-year-old Huangfu Ruoshang. Although she is old
