C119 (1/2)

Yue Luoxue's voice seemed to carry some kind of magic that allowed him to calm down immediately. She had never revealed the negative emotions in her heart, so she almost went berserk when she heard the Emperor of North Qi speaking these words.

With a stiff expression, he nodded at Yue Luoxue, indicating that he was fine, and the two held their breaths, continuing to listen to the two people above.

Generally speaking, they were discussing what benefits Sunscorch Kingdom would bring to the North Qi. The North Qi Plains were vast, but there was not enough food, so they received quite a few promises from the Sunscorch Kingdom. A batch would arrive soon, and the rest were discussing how to frame the Duke Palaces.

Tuoba Hong no longer held any military power in the military camp, but the prestige that the Battle King Manor's generations had accumulated was still there. Many of the families of generals were more or less related to the Battle King Manor, some were even dead loyal.

For example, General Baller, who was still in the border trial and was under the control of the Battle King for almost every generation, had a particularly close relationship with the War King's manor.

Therefore, they had plotted against Baltic and Sunscorch Kingdom, and also plotted all of this towards Tuoba Hong. Because of the military power being taken away, Tuoba Hong's heart was filled with anger, he had sold out the entire country, and he had schemed to rebel.

At the same time, all sorts of arrangements were made in the capital city. In short, after the news of Balhler's rebellion arrived from the front lines, it would be the time when the Battle King Manor would receive a bloody disaster.

Yue Luoxue became more and more shocked the more she heard about it. She had thought that this would take at least three months to complete, and just listening to the meaning of the North Qi Emperor, it seemed that one month was more than enough. What did this mean?

After their initial anger, Tuoba Hong remained silent. It wasn't until the two of them had finished listening to their conversation that he laughed at himself and said, ”Actually, before coming here, I still had some fantasies. The Battle King Manor has been loyal for generations.

Although Yue Luoxue could not empathize with him, she knew that there was a huge difference between the current era's loyal supporters and the traitors. It was normal for Tuoba Hong to have this kind of reaction.

”Then what do you plan to do? It would be best for General Balfour to make a decision earlier. I believe that the Battle King Manor is a part of the army. It shouldn't be so lacking in power, right?”

Yue Luoxue deliberately used a relaxed tone. Although the Battle King's Palace was loyal, they would definitely train their trusted aides, and seizing the throne, the army was the key. Otherwise, if you go alone, even if you killed the emperor, you wouldn't be able to become the emperor.

Tuoba Hong did not look relaxed at all. ”You're right, the Battle King's Mansion has its own system in the army, so it can be said that they have a huge power. But since Royal Father has the command medallion to mobilize that portion of the army, I can only use those that I have cultivated myself.”

Yue Luoxue was a little curious. Her previous relationship with the Battle-King was a little unusual, ”Since it is in the hands of the Battle-King, is it very difficult to obtain it?”

Tuoba Hong sighed: ”Royal father will not rebel, he is loyal to the North Qi Imperial Family, or more accurately speaking, it is loyal to someone within the Imperial Family.”

Yue Luoxue was a little stunned, she could not help but be curious about who that person was. From Tuoba Hong's tone, she knew that person could not be the emperor, but she was still someone from the imperial family, who could it be?

Tuoba Hong took a glance at Yue Luoxue, and a bitter look flashed past his eyes as he said: ”Royal Father loves a woman. He promised that woman, who will always help her royal brother guard the mountains and rivers of North Qi.”

This time, Yue Luoxue finally understood. The Battle King liked the princess, who was willing to sacrifice his family for the sake of a beauty.

”Could it be that the Battle King will just watch as the Battle King's Mansion gets framed?” Yue Luoxue kept feeling that there was a limit to this infatuation.

Tuoba Hong shook his head, ”Of course he can. In his heart, the Battle King Palace, me, mufei, and Yu'er are nothing at all.”

Yue Luoxue felt that this Battle King was really infatuated with him, but was also selfishly infatuated with him. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.

”I used to hate him, but now I don't. I can't believe he can understand me.” Tuoba Hong laughed bitterly. Even though he was inferior to his father, disregarding his family and relatives for a woman, he knew that for Yue Luoxue, he could lose his life.

”Oh, actually, it wasn't easy for the Battle-King either.” Yue Luoxue sighed, then said: ”Tuoba Hong, I'll go see the Battle-King tomorrow, maybe he will take out his order badge.”

The alliance was not something that could be completed overnight, especially with the strong power. Yue Luoxue had wanted to use the reputation of the Battle King's Manor, but she did not expect there to be such a convenient force to use, so she naturally could not let it go.

When that time comes, there would be troops outside the city, and the inner palace would be in turmoil, so the Emperor of North Qi would have even less bargaining chips. Of course, one had to be wary of Sunscorch Kingdom taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, as an army was definitely a part of it.

When Yue Luoxue returned to her room, she saw Qinghuan sitting beside her bed, swinging her legs under the moonlight. She looked at him with a little resentment, ”Master, you really value your beauty over your friends.

Yue Luoxue laughed helplessly, and waved his hand: ”Come here, I'll give you something to do.

However, Yue Luoxue allowed her to familiarize herself with the appearances of the few important masters in the Duke Palaces. She also made a few good human skin masks, and also picked out a suitable substitute.

”Master, you want to trade for the crown prince?” Qing Huan opened his mouth in shock.

Yue Luoxue said: ”What kind of lewd cat for a crown prince, all I need is a few substitute bodies, Tuoba Yu's body is weak, and the Battle-King is like that, I have to send him out, this way I can hide from others' eyes, time is of the essence, I have to do this.”

Qing Huan stretched lazily and said, ”No problem. But Mistress, it's already the middle of the night. Are you still not going to sleep? I've been waiting for you for the whole night.”

After saying that, she came over to hug Yue Luoxue again. Yue Luoxue let her hug him and then let her off with a laugh, ”Alright, I'm already full. Master should rest well, I'll watch the night for you and figure out who's suitable to be your substitute.”

The next day, Yue Luoxue and Tuoba Yu went to see the Battle-King Tuoba Hu together. Tuoba Yu was very happy along the way, and hoped that her royal father's body could be treated as well.
