Chapter 1118

  After eating hot pot, Xiao Xixi and Luo Qinghan stopped by for a stroll in the night market.

  They didn’t return to the palace until they had enough food and drink to have fun.

  Both of them were a little tired, so they fell asleep after washing.

  As soon as the next day dawned, the secret security guards who had been urgently charged for 800 li were sent to the palace quickly.

  At this time, Luo Qinghan had just left Yunxiu Palace when he saw Zhao Xian running quickly with a secret security letter.

  He knelt on one knee: "Enjoy your majesty, this is an urgent report sent from Nanyue Country, kiss you!"

   Hearing that it was an emergency report sent from Nanyue Country, Luo Qinghan's heart sank, and a bad premonition spontaneously emerged.

  At the beginning of the civil strife in Nanyue, Xiao Xixi, as Princess Nanfeng, followed the Nanyue delegation to Shengjing for help. As the Dasheng Emperor, Luo Qinghan agreed to borrow 30,000 troops to Nanyue to help them put down the civil strife as soon as possible.

  After the thirty thousand soldiers and horses went to Nanyue, there has been no news.

  Two years have passed since now.

  Many ministers in the DPRK are concerned about this. It's just that the civil turmoil in a small country should have ended long ago. Why hasn't there been any news yet?

   Now suddenly receiving an urgent report from Nanyue, Luo Qinghan instinctively felt that it would not be good news.

  He opened the emergency report and quickly read the contents of the letter.

  The early winter morning was extremely cold, and the wind blew past my ears, making life hurt like a knife.

   However, Luo Qinghan didn't realize it.

  He held the thin piece of letter paper and was silent for a long time before exhaling slowly.

   "Let's go."

  Long Yin continued to move forward and arrived at the Chamber of Commerce smoothly as usual.

  Hundred officials of civil and military officers stood in accordance with their ranks and respectfully bowed to the emperor.

  Luo Qinghan looked at the low-hanging head below, and said for a long time: "I just received an urgent report from the Nanyue Kingdom, and the Nanyue King has passed away."

   A simple sentence, but like a bomb, it exploded in everyone's mind.

  Everyone was stunned, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.

  They had heard about King Nanyue’s serious illness, but two years later, they thought that King Nanyue’s illness had been cured, but they didn’t expect that the person would die.

Someone couldn't help asking, "Since the Nanyue King is gone, who is in charge of Nanyue Kingdom now? And how about the 30,000 soldiers and horses we sent to Nanyue? Should Nanyue's civil war continue? "

  Luo Qinghan did not answer.

  He is thinking now, how should he tell Xixi about this?

  Even if she is not the biological daughter of the Nanyue King, she and the Nanyue King are still affectionate. She will definitely be very sad to learn about the death of the Nanyue King.

  At this moment, someone mentioned the imperial concubine.

   "The Nanyue King has no children, only the imperial concubine's daughter. Now that the Nanyue King is gone, Nanyue can't be in charge. As Nanyue's princess, is the imperial concubine going back to preside over the overall situation?"

  Nanyue is different from Dasheng. The throne of Dasheng only passes on the son, but the throne of Nanyue can be both male and female.

  In other words, as the only princess of Nanyue, the noble concubine is the only orthodox heir of Nanyue King.

  It makes sense for her to preside over the overall situation.

  As soon as I finished saying this, someone immediately jumped out to oppose it.

   "The imperial concubine has been married to Dasheng. The so-called marrying chicken and chicken, since she has become Dasheng's concubine, she is already a Dasheng person. No matter what happens to Nanyue, she has nothing to do with her!"

  The Minister of Korea and China divided into two factions because of different opinions on this matter.

  Some people think that the imperial concubine can go back to preside over the overall situation, so that it will be logical to get the Southern Moon Country into the bag.

  People in the other group think that the imperial concubine is a woman, and that women can’t do politics. This is a rule that cannot be changed!

  The two parties quarreled over this matter.

  Luo Qinghan was impatient to listen to their conversation, and ended today's morning session ahead of schedule.

  After he left the Chamber of Inquiry, he did not go directly to the Imperial Study Room to review the memorials as usual, but stared at the direction of Yunxiu Palace.

  President Chang stood quietly beside him, acting as a set board dutifully.

  It was a long time before he heard the emperor speak.

   "How do you think you should tell the concubine about this?"

  Grandpa Chang knew that the emperor was talking about the death of King Nanyue.

  He thought about it for a while and said cautiously.

   "This matter can be concealed for a while, but for a lifetime.

  Instead of letting the imperial concubine learn about it from others, it is better for you to tell her about it in person, so that she will not think too much about it.

   And according to the minions, the imperial concubine is not the kind of weak woman who can be easily defeated.

  She actually has a lot of money in her heart, you might as well tell her the truth. "

  Luo Qinghan slowly exhaled: "Let's go, take the Yunxiu Palace."

  Xiao Xixi just crawled out of the warm bed just now.

  She sits in front of the vanity mirror and yawns lazily.

  Zhezhi helped her comb her hair into a simple and unique bun.

  Because she didn't have to go out, she didn't wear too many hair accessories, and simply inserted two gold hairpins.

  The sound of green pine sounded outside the door.

   "Open to the noble concubine, the emperor is here."

  Xiao Xixi was taken aback, with a look of surprise on her face. At this time on weekdays, the emperor would handle government affairs in the imperial study room. Why did she suddenly come to Yunxiu Palace today? Is something wrong?

  Zhezhi helped the imperial concubine to get up and walked towards the door.

  Everyone bowed to the emperor.

  Luo Qinghan took Xixi’s hand and whispered: “Didn’t you tell you that you don’t have to go out to pick me up?”

  Xiao Xixi smiled sweetly at him, and said softly: "It's not a few steps anyway, what does it matter."

  Luo Qinghan led her into the warm room.

  He held back, leaving only him and Xiao Xixi in the house.

  Xiao Xixi keenly noticed that Luo Qinghan had something to tell herself. She blinked and looked at him curiously.

  "Why is your expression so serious? Is something wrong?"

  Luo Qinghan looked at her steadily, and it took a long time before she said dauntingly: "I just received an emergency report from Nanyue that King Nanyue died of illness."

  Xiao Xixi was stunned.

  She opened her eyes wide in disbelief: "How could this be? When did it happen?"

   Luo Qinghan: "It was probably two months ago."

  He stared at Xixi closely, for fear that she would not be able to withstand the blow.

  Xiao Xixi murmured: "I thought there was a master, she should be fine, I didn’t expect..."

  I didn’t expect that such a powerful master would not be able to cure the Nanyue King’s illness.

  Although she and Nanyue King are not biological mothers and daughters, Nanyue King treats her very well, and she treats Nanyue King as her teacher's mother sincerely.

  Now when she first heard the news of King Nanyue’s death, she really couldn’t accept it.

  Luo Qinghan stretched out his hand to embrace her in his arms, hugged her tightly, stroked her back with his palms, and comforted her silently.

  Xiao Xixi said boredly: "I am very worried about Master."

  Compared to her, the grief and pressure on Master must be much greater.

  I don’t know how Master is now?
