Chapter 209
His expression happened to be seen by Mr. Qi, and the old fox lowered his eyes, hiding the light in his eyes.

And Song Ming's eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know what he thought of.

In the small imperial study room, the dark tide was raging.

"Your Majesty, the situation of the Huns has affected the peace of the Great Zhou. We can't just wait for the news to come back about the disappearance of Prince Saya, but have to take the initiative."

Pei Xiu said in a deep voice, Feng Jin's expressionless eyes fell on him, "Pei Qing might as well speak up if you have something to say."

"My minister thought that it would be much better to send skilled spies to infiltrate the Xiongnu to find out information than to wait. His Majesty's Longevity Festival is coming, and the conflict between the Eastern Huns and the Western Huns should not lead to instability in the frontier."

Feng Jin's eyes flickered slightly, are they capable?spy?It's hard not to think about Wuming.

Feng Jin smiled and said nothing, did not answer Pei Xiu's words, Pei Xiu didn't care about her ignoring her, and continued, "I think that among the spies, the hidden guards are the best at picking up information, and the hidden guards are the best. Of course, Wuming, the leader of the secret guards, is the most shrewd and capable, so for His Majesty's Longevity Day to be safe, lively, and celebrated by the whole country, why don't you invite Wuming to go to the Xiongnu for a visit."

I really want to send Wuming away!
Feng Jin couldn't help sneering in her heart, she glanced at Qi Heng, and the old fox Qi immediately said, "Wu Ming is the leader of the hidden guards, of course we must protect His Majesty every step of the way, Your Majesty's safety is above all else."

"There are imperial guards in the palace, there are countless hidden guards, and there are troops outside the imperial capital. As long as His Majesty doesn't leave the palace at will, there will be no problem."

Pei Xiu blocked the words back, staring at Wuming with a pair of sharp eyes, and Wuming let him stare blankly.

"Is Pei Qing accusing me of going out of the palace without authorization a few days ago and being besieged by Jianghu faction?"

Feng Jin said coldly, Pei Xiu lowered her eyes, and pretended to be respectful, "I didn't say that, it's just that your majesty is the emperor, for the peace of the world and the stability of the Great Zhou, your majesty shouldn't always leave the palace at will." , causing danger that shouldn’t be provoked.”

Feng Jin stared at him coldly. After staring at him for a while, she said coldly, "Pei Qing knows that it is impossible for me to let Wuming leave, but Pei Qing still insists on this matter on purpose. What is the purpose, you might as well speak up."

"Why can't he leave? Is he unable to leave His Majesty, or His Majesty cannot leave him?"

To Feng Jin's surprise, Pei Xiu didn't say anything else, but stuck to the topic.

Feng Jin's eyes darkened, this was not like Pei Xiu's behavior, Pei Xiu knew that she would not let Wuming go to the Huns, and kept pestering this matter, wasting useless thoughts and energy.

She subconsciously looked at Pei Xiu, only to find that Pei Xiu was staring at her intently, her eyes were as sharp as a wolf's.

Feng Jin frowned, she had seen this kind of gaze in the eyes of the sect master before, that kind of sharp, fanatical, and eager gaze, like a wild beast staring at its prey.

The difference is that the sect master's is more exposed, and Pei Xiu's is more restrained, so restrained that it is almost invisible.

Feng Jin met Pei Xiu's gaze expressionlessly, and said calmly and firmly, "I can't do without him."

Don't you want an answer?I give you the answer!Whether or not this answer is what you want is none of my business.

Pei Xiu's eyes darkened, she stared at Feng Jin for a moment, then smiled, "I understand, since His Majesty is reluctant to be unknown, then send someone else. Anyway, in His Majesty's heart, the stability of Dazhou and the people's living and working in peace and contentment, Nothing compares to the arms of a man you love."

Shout out to her?
Feng Jin couldn't help sneering in her heart, "I really want to take care of the stability of Dazhou and the people's living and working in peace and contentment, but it's a pity that Pei Qing didn't give me this chance. I'm trapped in the deep palace, I can't govern myself, I have no one in my hands, no soldiers, no soldiers. Quan, I can't do anything, if it wasn't for Wuming to accompany me and comfort me, I'm afraid I would have gone crazy long ago."

"Your Majesty wants to be in charge, it's not impossible, as long as your majesty can appoint an imperial husband, of course, the position of imperial husband must be an unmarried man with a clean family background and a good family style. I'm afraid the person your majesty wants will not be able to do it."

Pei Xiu said coldly, her eyes never left Feng Jin.

Feng Jin curled her lips into a smile, "When did Pei Qing become so generous?"

"My minister is not magnanimous. My minister is following the legacy of Taizu. If Your Majesty has no candidate for the emperor's husband, this minister can recommend one."

Feng Jin smiled, and took a deep look at Pei Xiu, "Who?"

The corners of Pei Xiu's mouth raised slightly, showing a sinister arc, "Chen, Pei Xiu!"

Feng Jin seemed to hear a big joke, "Pei Qing has also learned how to joke with me, but it's a pity that this isn't funny at all."

"Weichen didn't joke."

Pei Xiu stared at Feng Jin intently, clearly seeing the panic in her eyes, and couldn't help thinking in her heart: A woman is a woman!Even if you are an emperor, you are still emotional!
"If Your Majesty is willing, I would like to recommend myself!"

Pei Xiu pressed her step by step, the smile on Feng Jin's lips froze, and a moment later, she said coldly, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Pei Qing is willing to let go of her power and enter the palace?"

"Anyway, after His Majesty is in charge and seizes power, the fate of the humble minister will not be much better. It is better to enter the palace. If His Majesty can give birth to a son and a half daughter, His Majesty will not be so cruel and ruthless. And the Pei family will be killed."

Both Song Ming and Qi Heng tried their best to shrink their necks, trying to reduce the sense of presence, for fear of being affected by the smokeless war between Pei Xiang and the empress, and being burned to ashes.

Feng Jin grasped the armrest of the dragon chair tightly with his hand, the veins on the back of his hand were bulging, almost crushing the armrest into pieces.

How could she not see that it was impossible for Pei Xiu to enter the palace, he was deliberately provoking her and testing her bottom line!However, she was speechless, she couldn't act, and deliberately followed Pei Xiu's words.

Actually, as long as she said: Okay, I am waiting for Pei Qing to enter the palace.It can solve Pei Xiu's pressing every step of the way, but she can't say it.

"Why doesn't Your Majesty speak? Is it because you don't want to, or because you don't like my minister?"

Pei Xiu smiled slightly, a trace of calculation flashed across his face.

But for some reason, seeing Feng Jin speechless, Pei Xiu felt inexplicably bitter.

She loves that man so deeply that she can't even say a word to return it, just a hypocritical word for acting.

However, this also told him one thing, the empress could not take charge of the government for the time being, because she had no intention of becoming an emperor's husband at all.

She wanted to give this position to Wuming, but Wuming's identity was stuck there, making her unable to advance or retreat, so she had to press down on her plan to be in charge first.

"Your Majesty, please give me a clear statement. I have admired Your Majesty for a long time. If I can enter the palace as the emperor's husband, I will definitely let go of the power in my hand and be willing to serve Your Majesty in the harem, take care of the affairs of the harem for Your Majesty, and be the man behind His Majesty's back."

Pei Xiu deliberately said these words, deliberately forcing Feng Jin to let go.

He had some inexplicable obsession in his heart, wanting to prove something.

Prove that he is no worse than Wuming?Or do you want to prove that the Queen's feelings for Wuming are not so strong?
However, while persecuting the queen, Pei Xiu felt inexplicably bitter when she saw the queen's face was cold and ashen, but she just refused to let go.

"I--"

After a long silence, Feng Jin finally spoke. Pei Xiu stared at her white lips, and his heart ached.

Wuming looked at Feng Jin with concern and gave her winks, but Feng Jin stared at Pei Xiu coldly as if he didn't see it, "I can't give Pei Qing a clear indication."

As she said that, she sneered, "As Pei Qing wishes."

As I wish?
The goal was achieved, but Pei Xiu was not happy at all.

He tested her bottom line and knew her plan, but his heart was heavy, bitter and astringent.

"His Majesty--"

Pei Xiu looked at Feng Jin, and just about to say something, Feng Jin looked away, without looking at him, and said coldly, "Everyone back down!"

Qi Heng and Song Ming stepped back immediately when they had something to say, they could see that the Queen was in a very bad mood.

Pei Xiu stared blankly at Feng Jin, but Feng Jin didn't have half of his place in Feng Jin's eyes. Wuming stepped forward, blocking his sight, Pei Xiu stared at Wuming coldly, Wuming refused to give an inch.

The four eyes meet each other, lightning and flint.

"Your Majesty said to step down, but Xiangye still doesn't step back?"

Wuming said coldly, Pei Xiu smiled disdainfully, "You are not qualified to order the truth!"

"is it?"

Wuming glanced at Pei Xiu with a blank expression, and secretly gathered his spiritual power in his right hand. His momentum soared, and a powerful invisible air flow rushed towards his face like Mount Tai, almost bending Pei Xiu's waist. Xiu's face changed suddenly, and he subconsciously held the handle of the soft sword at his waist in a defensive posture.

Wuming stared at him coldly, "Since Xiangye refuses to step down, I have no choice but to personally ask Xiangye to step down!"
