Eagle-eyed and wolf-watching

Chapter 1563 An Miaoyi’s worries!

On March 21st, the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the window onto Ye Mingsheng's face. After a moment, under the influence of his biological clock, Ye Mingsheng opened his eyes in a daze, and then instinctively asked:
"What time is it now?"

"It's 2:45 AM now!"

Listening to Pei Zhixiu's gentle voice, Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly, then turned over as if to continue sleeping.

Pei Zhixiu was a little surprised to see Ye Mingsheng doing this. In her impression, Ye Mingsheng usually got up around the hour of Mao, washed up and had breakfast, and then started his morning exercise, boxing or jogging. In short, Ye Mingsheng's life habits were very regular, and he rarely stayed in bed!

Just now at the hour of Mao, Pei Zhixiu saw that Ye Mingsheng had not woken up yet, and hesitated whether to wake him up. Later, when she saw that Ye Mingsheng was sleeping soundly, she thought that Ye Mingsheng had been working very hard recently, so she did not wake him up.

Seeing that Ye Mingsheng really had no intention of getting up, Pei Zhixiu hesitated for a moment and reminded him again:

"Your Majesty, it is already 2:45 AM."

Ye Mingsheng, who was still a little confused while lying on the bed, responded:
"I know it's two quarters past midnight. I'll sleep a little longer!"

Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Pei Zhixiu didn't say anything else. He lay in bed for another half an incense stick of time. Then Ye Mingsheng slowly got up from the bed and began to eat the breakfast that Pei Zhixiu prepared for him...

Breakfast was a bowl of millet porridge, a plate of pickled vegetables, a fried egg, and a small plate of braised beef. Although these things were not rich, they were all made by Pei Zhixiu herself, so Ye Mingsheng still enjoyed them. After finishing the millet porridge in the bowl, Ye Mingsheng handed the bowl to Pei Zhixiu with some reluctance and said:
"Give me another bowl of porridge!"

After handing the porridge to Ye Mingsheng, Pei Zhixiu looked at Ye Mingsheng who was eating the porridge in big mouthfuls and couldn't help asking:

"What happened, Your Majesty?"

Hearing Pei Zhixiu's question, Ye Mingsheng was startled, and then asked back with some doubt:

"What happened?"

Facing Ye Mingsheng's question, Pei Zhixiu didn't know what to say. After hesitating for a while, he began to speak:
"It's nothing, I just feel that your Majesty is a little abnormal today!"

Ye Mingsheng smiled slightly when he heard this:

"Because I slept a little longer?"

Pei Zhixiu thought for a moment and said:
“That’s part of the reason, but not all!”

Ye Mingsheng said jokingly:

"Ji Xiu, you know there is one advantage to being an emperor, that is when you want to be lazy, no one can stop you!"

Hearing Ye Mingsheng say this, Pei Zhixiu asked in surprise:
"In your Majesty's eyes, is being an emperor a job?"

Ye Mingsheng did not answer directly, but asked again:
"What is the emperor in your eyes, Ji-soo?"

Pei Zhixiu heard the words and preached without hesitation:
“The emperor has a responsibility and a duty! He must obey the will of heaven, serve the people, and take care of all the people in the country…”

Hearing Pei Zhixiu's answer, Ye Mingsheng shook his head with some emotion. He had also asked An Miaoyi this question. An Miaoyi was a little hesitant when answering at that time, but with Ye Mingsheng's encouragement, she still expressed her inner thoughts.

Ye Mingsheng still remembers very clearly that An Miaoyi's answer was power! It was the only supreme power in heaven and earth!
After expressing his feelings for a while, Ye Mingsheng expressed his thoughts.

"I'm not a person who just gets by, but I don't want to make myself too tired either, so I've always treated being an emperor as a profession, as a job. Just like a chef in a restaurant, his job is to cook every dish for the diners, and my job is to handle the military affairs of Daqian!"

"When it's not dinner time and there are no diners in the restaurant, the chef in the restaurant will take a break in the kitchen. This is normal, and I am the same. I have never been a saint, and sometimes I also have the idea of ​​being lazy!"

Seeing Ye Mingsheng comparing the emperor and the cook, Pei Zhixiu felt that Ye Mingsheng had some truth in what he said, but she also felt that something was wrong with what Ye Mingsheng said. After thinking for a while, she said:
"The emperor and the cook are always different!"

"Of course there will be differences! But this world is never perfect. As the old saying goes, take a break from your busy life!"

Looking at Ye Mingsheng's arguing, Pei Zhixiu just shook her head but didn't say anything else.

Seeing this, the smile on Ye Mingsheng's face deepened. He knew that Pei Zhixiu wanted to persuade him to be a good emperor. This was also the difference between Pei Zhixiu and other women in the harem!
Although Ye Mingsheng had concubines in the double digits, he knew very well that most of them were just people who curry favor with the powerful. When facing him, they would do their best to flatter and please him, but behind his back, they knew only the appearance but not the heart...

So when faced with the situation of asking him to sleep a little longer, instead of persuading him, they would pretend to be sympathetic and let him sleep a little longer and rest a little more. Whenever encountering such a situation, Ye Mingsheng could not fall asleep even though he was very sleepy.

Only when lying on his own bed or Pei Zhixiu's bed, Ye Mingsheng could feel a moment of peace in his heart and have the leisure to sleep a little longer.

Because he slept for nearly half an hour longer, Ye Mingsheng did not do morning exercises. After having breakfast at Pei Zhixiu's house, Ye Mingsheng came to his imperial study to prepare to start a new day's work.

Seeing Ye Mingsheng coming, Ye Cheng also walked into the room holding a stack of memorials and began to introduce him to Ye Mingsheng as usual:

"You will have to deal with eleven memorials this morning. Among them, this operational plan from the General Staff is the most important. Then in the afternoon, Murong Hui will come to visit you. After the meeting, Minister Liu of the Ministry of Justice will also report to Your Majesty on some issues of the Ministry of Justice!"

Ye Mingsheng nodded slightly when he heard this. Seeing this, Ye Cheng tactfully prepared to leave, leaving Ye Mingsheng with a quiet working environment.

However, before he took two steps, he heard Ye Mingsheng coughing lightly behind him.

Although Ye Mingsheng did not say anything, Ye Cheng, who had followed Ye Mingsheng for many years, immediately understood Ye Mingsheng's thoughts. He turned around and walked back to Ye Mingsheng's desk, waiting for Ye Mingsheng to give orders.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Mingsheng slowly said: "Send a message to the Queen! Ask her to send Huangpin home..."

When Ye Mingsheng said this, Ye Cheng was very surprised. He looked at Ye Mingsheng in disbelief, but seeing that Ye Mingsheng had no intention of changing his words, he also asked the reason very tactfully, but nodded and said:
"Your Majesty! I will pass the order immediately!"

"Go!"

After receiving the order, Ye Cheng walked out of the imperial study respectfully, with a very puzzled look on his face. If he remembered correctly, this Huang Pin that Ye Mingsheng had just mentioned was one of the concubines selected to enter the palace last year. She had just turned eighteen when she entered the palace last year, and she had not had the chance to sleep with the emperor in the past year!

It was only recently that His Majesty picked this Concubine Huang. This Concubine Huang is petite and cute, with a very sweet look, a small round face, two big watery eyes, and a crescent-shaped smile.

So after the first night with her, His Majesty still seemed very interested in her. In the past half month, he had fought with her three times, and the most recent one seemed to be the day before yesterday!
Why does the Queen have to send Concubine Huang back home now?

Your Majesty is not a moody person, so why would you make such an arrangement today?

Although he didn't quite understand why Ye Mingsheng did this, Ye Cheng still followed Ye Mingsheng's instructions to find An Miaoyi.

At this time, An Miaoyi is making a facial mask. Since she tried it for the first time, An Miaoyi has fallen in love with this beauty method, so she will make a facial mask once or twice every day to make her facial skin whiter, smoother, and keep it firm and elastic················

However, An Miaoyi, who was leisurely making a facial mask, was also very surprised after hearing Ye Mingsheng's order from Ye Cheng. She hesitated for a while before asking:

"Did your majesty tell me the reason why you sent Huangpin back home?"

Facing An Miaoyi's question, Ye Cheng shook his head and said:
"Your Majesty, His Majesty only asked you to arrange for Huangpin to be sent home!"

Hearing Ye Cheng say this, An Miaoyi was even more confused, but no matter how confused she was, facing Ye Mingsheng's order, An Miaoyi had no room to refuse, so An Miaoyi nodded and said:

"Go back and report to His Majesty! I will take care of this matter!"

"Yes! I'll take my leave now!"

After Ye Cheng left, Qiqige, who was serving An Miaoyi and making a facial mask, also volunteered to An Miaoyi:

"My queen! Leave this matter to me!"

An Miaoyi asked back after hearing this:
"Qiqige, what are you going to do?"

Qiqige said without hesitation:
"Your Majesty asked me to send her home, so I will naturally send her back!"

An Miaoyi shook her head and said:

"This matter is not that simple! I remember that this Huangpin had the opportunity to sleep with you recently. Why did His Majesty want to drive her away in just a few days?"

Qiqige thought for a moment and said:
"Perhaps Huangpin is not serving His Majesty well enough!"

After saying this, Qiqige said a little embarrassedly:

"Your Majesty sometimes asks for that..."

Hearing what Qiqige said, An Miaoyi didn't say anything but just shook her head, her beautiful eyes still full of doubts. Although Ye Mingsheng sometimes did have some requirements in battle, Ye Mingsheng was not the kind of person who was particularly strong and overbearing, and would not do anything unless you did something.

During the battle, if you refuse some of Ye Mingsheng's requests, although Ye Mingsheng will be a little disappointed, he will not force you. An Miaoyi once refused Ye Mingsheng, but Ye Mingsheng did not do anything!
So in An Miaoyi's opinion, Qiqige's idea doesn't make sense!
However, An Miaoyi was certain that Huang Pin must have offended Ye Mingsheng in some way, otherwise Ye Mingsheng would never let her send Huang Pin home!
Thinking of this, An Miaoyi couldn't help but have a bad premonition in her heart!

But An Miaoyi thought about it carefully and realized that this possibility was not great. However, the more An Miaoyi thought about it, the more curious she became about what happened to Huang Bin. Thinking of this, An Miaoyi instructed Qiqige:

"Go and call Huangpin over!"

"Yes!"

Under An Miaoyi's command, a sweet-looking little girl soon came in front of her.

The little girl looked at the majestic queen and seemed a little scared, but she still said respectfully:

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen!"

An Miaoyi glanced at Huang Bin, then went straight to the point and said coldly:
"What happened when you were sleeping with me the day before yesterday?"

Hearing what An Miaoyi said, Huang Bin was stunned and looked a little at a loss, while An Miaoyi continued to ask:
“I don’t want to say the same thing a second time! If you don’t want to suffer, just tell the truth quickly…”

･････････
Erlunqin grassland,
The old Ibugele sat on the open space in front of the Khan's tent, looking at the setting sun and feeling very emotional in his heart. He knew that his life was like a candle in the wind and would soon come to an end. Perhaps in half a month, or perhaps a month, he would return to the arms of God!
Thinking of this, Ibugele couldn't help but look up at the sky and recalled his life!
Ibugele's father was the chief of the Solon tribe. Ibugele was a noble of Robe from the moment he was born!

But Ibugel's life was not all smooth sailing. When Ibugel was 21 years old, his father died in a battle with the Kipchaks. Ibugel, who had not yet established enough prestige in the tribe, was forced to take the position of tribal leader!

Although several decades have passed, Ibugele still clearly remembers the feeling when he first became the tribal chief. At that time, he did not feel any joy of being a chief. All he felt was fear and uneasiness, and even a little helplessness!
After all, although he was already a soldier at that time, he did not have his own team, and the group of people left by his father all treated him as a child and had no respect for him at all. In addition, his uncle Husile was also watching him covetously, as if he was ready to pull him down from the position of leader at any time!
Many strong men in history have faced such a situation. These strong men often resort to force and kill people to establish their authority in order to consolidate their rule and truly gain power!

Unfortunately, however, Ibugele is not a strong man...
