Jimo Wuxuan's jealousy was so strong that Xia Houyuan could certainly feel it. After a brief exchange with him, he also had a brief conflict and struggle in his heart. In the end, he chose to face the reality, smiled at Jimo Wuxuan, and said pleasantly: "Big

Lord of the Castle, I haven’t seen you for a few days, but you are still as charming as ever!”

Does a person's desires become bigger when he has power? If not, why does his desire to rob Qian Diewu become stronger?

No, he can't have such thoughts, because he must respect her choice.

Jimo Wuxuan felt that Xia Houyuan's words were provocative, so he also provoked him back, "My style is still the same, but you are not the same style, but you are rising rapidly. Your Majesty, congratulations to you."

"I cannot be where I am today without your contribution. I will remember this love forever."

"Your Majesty is here today only because of your own efforts. We just did our little bit. There's no relationship at all. Your Majesty doesn't need to worry about it." He tried to find an excuse to approach Diewu, but there was no way.

"However, your meager strength is of great help to me." Xia Houyuan knew that Jimo Wuxuan was talking secretly to him, and he also felt that the two of them had taken the topic too far.

, so he pulled back and said, "Since everyone has arrived, please take your seats."

"Then we won't be polite." Jimo Wuxuan smiled sinisterly and led Qian Diewu to sit down next to him.

Qian Diewu sighed and followed him. After sitting down, she whispered: "Wuxuan, why is it like this? The purpose of our coming here today is to help the current emperor establish his authority. You didn't seem to be in a good mood just now."

Give him face!"

It’s not that they don’t give much, it’s obvious that they don’t.

"If I want to kneel down to him, I can't do it." Jimo Wuxuan replied coldly. He didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter. He didn't even kneel down to Xia Houyuan's father, let alone Xia Houyuan?

"A man has gold at his knees. I understand this truth, but..." She didn't even know what kind of mood she was feeling now. It was extremely complicated and chaotic.

She didn't want her husband to condescend to kneel down to others, but she also wanted to help Xia Houyuan establish his imperial authority.

Qian Diewu tried her best to adjust her heartache, but finally stood by her husband's side, because she had made a decision last night to put her husband first, so she didn't have to worry about those messy things.

"If you want me to be polite to him, I might be able to do it, but if you want me to kneel down to him, there's no way." Jimo Wuxuan saw that Qian Diewu had stopped talking, so he added another sentence to show how serious his attitude was.

hard.

"Okay, if you don't kneel, don't kneel. There are a lot of people here. Just keep a low profile. That's okay, right?"

"Can."

Lin Miaozhu sat next to Jimo Wuming, feeling very uncomfortable with this kind of situation. He felt that everyone was strange, as if he was afraid of something, and seemed to be guarding against something.

Because the current situation was unstable, even though Jimo Wuxuan did not kneel down to Xia Houyuan, the ministers did not say anything, pretending not to notice, and drank their own tea and ate their own snacks.

Now it has returned to the deserted scene just now, so quiet that you can even hear the breathing of others.

Qian Diewu felt that the scene was too cold, so she picked up her tea cup and paid respect to Xia Houyuan, "Your Majesty, I wish you the best of luck in your throne. I am pregnant and should not drink alcohol, so I will give you a glass of tea instead of wine."

"Okay, I'll give you a drink in return. Thank you for your help in the past." Xia Houyuan raised his glass and paid tribute to Qian Diewu.

Qian Diewu took a sip of tea and put down the tea cup gracefully. Her words and deeds were very decent, and she did not lose her identity as the eldest lady of Mo Castle.

Lin Miaozhu lowered her head in shame, feeling that she was useless because she couldn't do what Qian Diewu did.

Jimo Wuming saw his wife always lowering her head and thought she was just nervous, so he comforted her and said, "Don't be afraid. Those high-ranking officials are just frightened birds at best. There is nothing to be afraid of."

"I, I'm fine." Lin Miaozhu raised his head, looked at Jimo Wuming, and tried his best to smile, not wanting him to worry too much.

Even if she can't be like her sister-in-law, she should at least make her husband feel at ease.

"It's okay. You probably haven't eaten the dim sum in the palace. Come on, try it and see if the dim sum made in our castle is more delicious or the dim sum made by the royal chef in the palace." Jimo Wuming took a piece.

The snacks were brought to Lin Miaozhu's mouth personally and fed to her.

Lin Miaozhu was a little embarrassed to do such an intimate thing in front of so many people. He looked at the people around him and found that they were all lowering their heads and doing their own things and not looking around at all, so it was not so embarrassing. He opened his mouth and

After eating the snacks, he whispered in Jimo Wuming's ear: "Wuming, these high-ranking officials give people a strange feeling."

"Why do you care about them? Is the snack delicious? If so, can I have another piece?"

"I still think the chefs in the castle make better food." She knew that the imperial chef in the palace was the best chef in the world and the food he cooked was the most delicious, but she was telling the truth, maybe because Mo

The food in the castle tasted like home, so she felt it was more delicious.

"In that case, I'll ask the cook to cook you more delicious food when you get back."

"Um."

With Jimo Wuming's concern, Lin Miaozhu stopped thinking wildly and felt much calmer.

No one spoke at the scene, and the situation was deadlocked again. Xia Houyuan was indifferent to this situation, and no one knew that he was secretly observing the officials.

Qian Diewu didn't like such a deserted occasion, but with her current status, it was hard for her to speak too much. Even if she wanted to break the ice, she had to remain silent and watch the situation develop quietly.

Who would have thought that with so many ministers there would be no one to talk to?

Jimo Wuxuan didn't like to talk on any occasion, but today, for the first time, he started chatting with Xia Houyuan.

"Your Majesty, you are now a noble, what are your plans next?"

Xia Houyuan was surprised that Jimo Wuxuan would take the initiative to talk to him, but he still answered his question seriously: "In the future, I will work hard to benefit my people and try my best to let them live a better life."

In fact, the reason why he did this was entirely because of a promise, a promise to the person he loved. But this promise would make him extremely lonely.

After hearing these words, some officials who were originally looking towards Xia Houyuan raised their heads and looked at Xia Houyuan in surprise and confusion, wondering whether they should turn to him?

A person who can say such words should be a good king. The late emperor was obsessed with pursuing immortality and had already neglected his official duties, leaving the people in dire straits, so they really needed a good king.

These thoughts were just those of the ministers at the scene, but Jimo Wuxuan never thought about this and continued chatting with Xia Houyuan, "Oh, besides benefiting the people, do you have any other plans?"

"As the king of a country, I naturally put the people first and serve the people for the rest of my life. I haven't thought about anything else yet." Xia Houyuan answered like a gentleman, losing a bit of his previous coldness and arrogance.

"What about the lifelong event?"

Hearing the word 'lifelong event', Xia Houyuan was shocked and understood the meaning of Jimo Wuxuan's words. He paused before replying, "There is no need to worry now. I will make plans after a period of time when the situation improves."

.”

"How can that be done? As the saying goes, 'A country cannot live without a king for a day,' so the mother of the country is also indispensable."

"It's rare for the Lord of the Castle to think of me like this, thank you very much!" This clearly meant that he wanted to force him into marriage.

I just want to force you to get married - Jimo Wuxuan seemed to be able to hear Xia Houyuan's thoughts, so he answered him in his heart.

Do you believe that I won't have any undue thoughts about Die Wu until I get married? - Xia Houyuan was also talking in his heart, and started talking secretly with Jimo Wuxuan.

That's right, I just don't trust you. Do you dare to say that you don't have any wrong thoughts about Diewu?

I like her, but I won't fight for her, so please relax.

But I just don't worry unless you get married.

I will not marry at will, nor will I steal your wife.

Qian Diewu could see that Jimo Wuming and Xia Houyuan were talking in code, and could even vaguely guess some, so she stared at Jimo Wuxuan with wide eyes, then glared at Xia Houyuan, and said to them in her heart: You two can't

Say less?

As soon as Qian Diewu takes action, this kind of code-telling thing ends.

Xia Houyuan spoke first, "Master of the Castle, just now you asked me about my next plan, and I have already told you, so I also want to ask, what are your next plans?"

"Isn't my next plan already obvious?" Jimo Wuxuan sneered, looking at Qian Diewu's belly, and continued: "Of course, I will take good care of my wife, wait for my child to be born, and then raise him.

aldult."

"You are such a good husband."

"Then you should be a good king."

"Absolutely, you must continue to be a good husband."

"Definitely."

The two men spoke meaningful words again, leaving Qian Diewu speechless. Just when he was about to stop them, a nurse hurriedly came in and reported: "Your Majesty, something bad has happened. The deposed crown prince will be deposed from heaven."

Escaped from prison."

Xia Houyuan was not surprised by this incident. It seemed to be something he had expected. He said calmly: "I understand, please step back."

"yes."

Xia Houyuan was not in a hurry, but Xiao Zhou was very anxious and reminded: "Your Majesty, the prison is heavily guarded. The deposed prince can still escape from it. I think someone must be secretly helping him. This shows that there are many deposed princes in the court."

people."

Xiao Zhou's words made the officials at the scene start to feel uneasy. They were afraid that Xia Houyuan would doubt themselves, so they all lowered their heads and tried their best to protect themselves.

"A fox is a fox after all, and his tail will be exposed sooner or later. Don't be anxious. If you are anxious, they will scare them into hiding their tails." Xia Houyuan smiled and glanced at the courtiers, but he was a little confused in his heart.
