Chapter 263 Negotiations
The maid spoke to persuade her, although there is only one lady in the palace, and His Majesty stays here every day, but tonight is really too late, maybe the emperor has already rested in the Qinzheng Hall.

"Wait a little longer." Qiu Yeli turned a deaf ear, but the movements in her hands did not stop. She knew that no matter how late, Gu Jingyao would definitely come, but tonight, she was not waiting for Gu Jingyao. For some reason, there was always something in her heart. disturbed.
"Yes, that servant will add two more candle lamps!" The palace lady lowered her head and replied.

"Hmm." Qiu Yeli snorted lightly indifferently.

The palace lady turned and left. As soon as she reached the door, Mu Ran realized that her eyes were dark, and when she looked up, she immediately bowed her head and bowed, "May your majesty be blessed!"

"Well, can the empress take a rest?" Gu Jingyao glanced lightly, looked into the hall and asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, not yet." The maid said respectfully.

Gu Jingyao frowned and walked into the hall. The maid stopped and looked at his back, envious in her heart. Their emperor was not only outstanding in appearance and talented in helping the world, but also had a deep love for the empress. The harem favored him. Who in the capital would not envy him!
In the hall, Gu Jingyao dismissed the palace people, and walked lightly to Qiu Yeli's side. Seeing that she was sewing something seriously, he walked around behind her and whispered, "Why aren't you sleeping?"

"Your Majesty." Qiu Yeli was stunned, stood up and put down the clothes in his hands, but was stopped by him when he was about to salute.

Gu Jingyao kept a stern face, pretending to be angry, and said solemnly, "Li'er, didn't I tell you that you don't need to salute to me in private!"

Gu Jingyao knows that Qiu Yeli is different from women in this era. In her world, men and women are equal. Women are not accessories of men, but the superiority of men and inferiority of women has been deeply rooted in this era. For a while, he has no way to change these things. But at least he was able to make it so between themselves.

Qiu Yeli chuckled, naturally knowing what he was thinking, "Okay,"

Qiu Ye Li pressed his shoulders to let him sit down, and said with a smile, "My husband must have worked hard dealing with political affairs until late at night, Li'er will rub your shoulders for you."

"Thank you for my husband!" Gu Jingyao pursed her lips and smiled, glanced at the clothes she put on the table, and said, "Does Li'er miss Nian'er and Yue'er?"

Qiu Yeli nodded, "It's been a few days since I left Mobei, so I'm naturally thinking about it."

"Calculating the time, in two days, Nian'er and Yue'er will be able to enter Beijing, and then you will be at ease." Gu Jingyao took her hand and wrapped it in his arms, looked into her eyes and smiled Open your mouth.

"Yeah!" Qiu Yeli nodded, with a strange look on her face, "But I always feel uneasy in my heart."

She didn't know where this feeling came from, but it became more obvious today, and she always felt that something happened to the two children.

Gu Jingyao frowned, and comforted softly, "Li'er, don't think about it, if there is a time, Han Xiujin will definitely write a letter, Nian'er misses you, he is a lucky child, and he will be fine!"

"Well! I hope so!" Qiu Yeli nodded, looking at Gu Jingyao, her worries eased a little.

"Let's settle it down, those officials will face each other again tomorrow." Gu Jingyao twitched the corners of his mouth and rubbed the center of his brows helplessly.

At the beginning of enthronement, there was some dissatisfaction in everyone's hearts, but every day when they went to court, the civil servants and military officials were as if they were facing each other like the tip of a needle, and the solemn and solemn court hall was as noisy as a vegetable market.

"Do you need a concubine to share your majesty's worries?" Qiu Yeli frowned, seeing his tired appearance, couldn't help but feel distressed.

Gu Jingyao opened his eyes when he heard the words, and looked at him with a smile, "My queen is naturally very intelligent, but those sour masters are eloquent, I'm afraid you will be wronged, Li'er, I can solve it."

"Yeah." Qiu Yeli nodded, naturally knowing that the harem should not be involved in politics. He did this to protect himself, and he sighed slightly when he saw his exhausted but happy appearance. It was his lifelong wish, and she would definitely stand at the highest place with him no matter what, and she would definitely not make him feel cold at the top.

The red candle was extinguished, and the central palace was silent.

The sun outside the Great Wall rose from the horizon on time. Inside the tent in Mobei, Han Xiujin sat quietly all night, the envelope sent by the envoy of the Li Army in his hand was already wrinkled.

"Too much deceit!" Han Xiujin slammed the letter in his hand to the ground, his face stern.

"Master Han" Luo Xuan'er frowned, she came early in the morning, so she naturally knew the news that Yue'er and Nian'er were kidnapped by Gu Jingcheng.

"My lord, the remnants of the Li army are deceiving people too much! They actually threatened us to hand over the entire Mo Han country with the safety of the prince and the princess. The subordinates are not talented. They are willing to lead the army to enter the camp of the Li army and rescue the princess and the prince!"

The lieutenant spoke loudly with an angry expression.

"No way, General Lin has sent back the news that the princess and the crown prince are indeed in the hands of Gu Jingcheng. If you rush into the army rashly, you may lose your life. How should I explain to the lord and madam at that time!"

Master Wang spoke hastily, watching Han Xiujin speak word by word.

"Then we just want to hand over Mo Hanguo to others? This is also the painstaking effort of the king and his wife!" The deputy general asked back.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was silent, and each of them understood the embarrassment of this matter.

"People must be safe and sound, and the land will not be given up!" Han Xiujin clenched his fists and said with lowered eyebrows.

"Ah Jiu, tell Lin Yinyi, no matter what, I must find a way to bring out the princess and the prince safe and sound. Then I will wait for his signal, throw the army to wait a hundred meters away, and take down the remnants of the Li Dynasty in one fell swoop!"

"Yes! This subordinate understands!" Ah Jiu took the order, turned around and left immediately, and rode away on a tall horse.

"Report!"

Outside the camp, a soldier's voice sounded, he opened the tent and knelt on his knees and said, "Master Han, the envoy of the Li Army is begging to see you!"

Han Xiujin frowned fiercely upon hearing this, and said coldly, "Bring it in!"

"Shameless, they still dare to come!" Luo Xuan'er was extremely angry, and moved her feet, but was held back by Han Xiujin, suppressing her anger and said softly, "Xuan'er, you go in first."

"I..." Luo Xuan'er was displeased, she still wanted to see what the Li Jun envoy was going to say, saw that his expression was not good, she nodded obediently, turned and left.

The envoy was quickly brought in, with a happy expression on his face, without the slightest sign of fear. He smiled and looked at Han Xiujin, who had a bad complexion, "Master Han, if the two armies are at war, if you don't kill the envoy, your lord will not even send a message to a villain." Not allowed?"

"Smart words! It's you who are shameless, go back and tell Gu Jingcheng, let the princess and the prince be released quickly, or I, Mobei Iron Cavalry, will crush you!"

Before Han Xiujin could speak, the lieutenant at the side pointed at the envoy and flew into a rage, cursing loudly.

"Your master hasn't spoken yet, why are you barking like a dog here?" The man glanced at the lieutenant general, and said dissatisfiedly, "Master Han, how are you thinking about the exchange of cities? Your Majesty has limited patience. For the sake of the little princess and the little prince, please make a decision as soon as possible!"
