Although this trip to the Spirit Province was secretly carried out, only the people from the palace knew about it, such as the eighth prince, the twelfth prince, and the seventh princess. Why the Seventh Princess? This was because the Seventh Princess had been admiring Jun Lin Yue for a very long time, wanting to see him at all times. However, Jun Linyue had no idea.
There were many sons of the Human Emperor and young ladies. Among the few princesses, only the Seventh Princess was doted upon by the Human Emperor. If it was someone the Seventh Princess liked, the Human Emperor would help her no matter what.
During this trip to the Spirit Province, the eighth prince praised King Lin Yue's excellence in front of the Human Emperor. Seventh Princess, who was standing at the side, was extremely moved. She asked her brother how Jun Lin Yue was doing every now and then … The eighth prince said: ”Seventh sister, good sister. As for his matters, you know at least ten times more than me, so don't make things difficult for big brother, I can only praise him for you. ”
Seventh Princess pouted at the side, gave a cute snort, and retreated.
The Human Emperor was clad in a golden dragon robe and had a dignified appearance. His body emitted a faint purple light. This was the symbol of the perfection of one's martial arts. He said unhurriedly, ”I've heard that this Black Tortoise Marquis is young and talented. He's been admiring him for many days. Let's invite him into the palace tomorrow. I want to see him.”
The eighth prince replied, ”Yes, royal father. Right, the Great Yang Martial Meet at the beginning of next month, should we still be held? ”
The Human Emperor smiled. ”Of course. Why not? I've already passed it to Lord Shi, you can help me ask about the progress. Everything will be the same. ”
The eighth prince replied, ”Yes, Imperial Father.”
The Human Emperor then said, ”That's right, help me summon the Twelfth Prince tomorrow night. Forget it, you can leave first. Leave this to Gong Qi.
”Has the palace lord recovered?” The eighth prince asked. The Human Emperor replied, ”Yes, we've already been back to the palace for a few days.”
The eighth prince nodded, ”I will take my leave.” With that, the Human Emperor nodded and the eighth prince also slowly withdrew.
At this time, Seventh Princess came out from behind and said coquettishly, ”Imperial Father, when are you going to let me see the Black Tortoise?”
The Human Emperor replied, ”Didn't I say that I would summon him tomorrow? Just calmly wait. ”
Seventh Princess nodded. Her uncontrollable excitement was written all over her face.
After returning to the imperial palace, although Jun Lin Yue hadn't been summoned by the Human Emperor, he had been arranged to stay in the palace closest to the Mortal Emperor Palace. It was impossible for Imperial Concubine Qing to publicly assassinate him in this place. Thus, Jun Lin Yue could finally have a good rest.
On the same day, he received a call from the Human Emperor. The one who sent the order was none other than the eighth prince, who had been on good terms with him back in Youzhou. After the eighth prince passed on the news that the Human Emperor had summoned him, he continued, ”Hey, Jun Linyue, have you had any luck with the peach blossoms during this period?”
Jun Linyue was always very respectful towards the imperial family. Although he was considered to be a royal relative, he didn't have a family in the Imperial Palace after all. As for such topics, they were beyond his expectations.
Jun Lanyue could only reply, ”Not bad, there are a lot already.”
The eighth prince unexpectedly smiled and left. How could Jun Lianyue know what would happen tomorrow? Thus, at night, he could not fall asleep. He kept thinking about how he could dissuade the Human Emperor from ending this war, and even reported that someone had attempted to assassinate him. He wanted to find out just what had caused this. Of course he didn't dare go see Imperial Concubine Qing now.
