Chapter 153 Miss Nan, Be Careful
After hearing what he said, even though Yun Ji was very well-mannered, his face couldn't help but turn black.
Yun Ting's move really tested his self-control.
At the beginning, she spoke with certainty to reassure him, and when he let his guard down, she suddenly suggested letting Concubine Shu go in his place.
Yun Ji always hated people who went back on their words, and he felt that there was some seriousness in Yun Ting's joke, so his expression couldn't help but turn a little cold.
It was no big deal for him to stay in the palace and lose the chance to meet Nan Yingzhi.
But if Nan Yingzhi succeeds, he will be trapped in the harem, or the Queen Mother will imprison him to threaten Nan Yingzhi, which will be a big deal.
The Queen Mother was shrewd and was the true overlord of the harem, so it was not surprising that she noticed that he was having a secret meeting with Nan Yingzhi.
If the Queen Mother does not know about it, it is fortunate. If she knows about it but does not restrain herself, but instead deliberately tries to find something to hold against the Regent and waits for the right opportunity, that would not be good.
When the time comes, if Nan Yingzhi's palace coup occurs, the empress dowager, who is eager to protect her child, will definitely take action.
If unfortunately, the Queen Mother saw through their tricks, and he stayed in the palace, he would most likely become a bargaining chip between the Queen Mother and Nan Yingzhi.
Nan Yingzhi decided to seize power and usurp the throne for him, so how could he become a threat to her by others?
The best strategy is to follow Yun Ting to the hunting ground, and then stay closely behind Yu Nanyingzhi!
Yun Ji expected that Yun Ting would go back on his words and his tone was full of playfulness. He probably wanted to scare him instead of really wanting Concubine Shu to replace him. Yun Ji was ready to pretend to be magnanimous and refuse.
But before he opened his mouth, Yun Ting suddenly retracted his gaze and turned his head to Concubine Shu: "Yuer, what do you think?"
Originally, Concubine Shu was sitting below the Queen. When she heard Yun Ting say, "I favor Lian Zhaoyi the most," the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Just now, my brother sent someone to specifically instruct that Yun Ting must bring Lian Zhaoyi with him on this hunt.
What a coincidence, Yun Ting took the initiative to bring it up before she even made any effort. It was truly like looking for something in vain, but finally getting it without any effort.
Before she could smile and agree, Yun Ting suddenly spoke up and asked her to go "in place" of Lian Zhaoyi.
Facing the fiery looks from the concubines, Song Yue cursed inwardly, the little emperor was so unreliable, causing such a mess at the critical moment!
If she really was in Yun Ji's hands and seized this position, not to mention how Yun Ji would fight back, her brother would definitely be the first person who would not let her go!
After all, his brother served the Regent, and the Regent and Concubine Lian...
On second thought, she suddenly realized that Yun Ting's words indirectly proved that she also had the right to accompany Yun Ting when hunting.
This thought made her feel itchy.
Compared to staying in the palace and waiting for the regent to take over and for her brother to send someone to pick her up, it would obviously be easier for her to escape by going with him.
After a while, she came up with a plan: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion."
"Oh?" Unexpectedly, Song Yue had her own plans. Yun Ting raised his eyebrows slightly, "You go ahead."
"It is my honor to follow Your Majesty and hunt together," Song Yue carefully looked at Yun Ting's face with a sincere expression, "but it is true that Sister Lian is weak, and it is also true that Zhong Yi went out of the ordinary.
"Sister Lian and I have a deep bond, and I know how much you long to leave the palace again.
"As an elder sister, I cannot bear to deprive my younger sister of her right to leave the palace and leave her alone in the palace, but I also dare not go against your majesty's wishes.
"How about, Your Majesty, take my sister and I with you. This way, we can take care of each other and Your Majesty won't lose face.
"This is a small gift from your majesty. I hope your majesty will fulfill it."
As if he wanted to make a hole in her face, Yun Ting's eyes did not move: "You all leave together, what about the affairs of the harem?"
"Empress, aren't you still staying in the palace?" Song Yue first pulled out the empress who had been unable to take care of affairs for a long time to support the situation, and mentioned the young and beautiful Concubine Xian, "Besides, there is also Concubine Xian's sister.
"Empress Xian has learned about the affairs of the harem from me before. I think if I can give you some pointers in the next few days, you, Sister Xian, will be able to assist the Empress in managing the three palaces and six courtyards."
"That makes sense." Feeling that one of them was appropriate and the other was beautiful, Yun Ting would be very proud to take them out, so he decided, "Then let's do it this way."
Seeing that their goal had been achieved, Yun Ji and Song Yue exchanged glances and saluted together: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."
"Okay, get up," Yun Ting waved his hand and looked at Song Yue, "Ayue, your brother Song Cheng hasn't come to the palace to see you for some time. Do you miss him?"
When Song Yue learned that Yun Ting would take Yun Ji with him, she felt relieved.
Since her brother could send someone to deliver a message at any time, she didn't care about Yun Ting's self-proclaimed tempting suggestion: "It's all up to your majesty."
"I know that although you don't say it, in your heart," Yun Ting hinted, "you are thinking about your family.
"Although your brother has been busy with hunting recently, I think he still has time to take some time to care about his younger sister.
"I'll ask him to pick a day to come and see you."
Song Yue felt deeply moved when she heard Yun Ting's words asking her to say a few good words about him in front of Song Cheng.
If before, when she was deeply in love with Yun Ting, she would have spoken well of him in front of her brother without his hint.
But times have changed, and Yun Ting's behavior a few days ago has already destroyed all his goodwill.
It is naturally impossible to win back her heart at this moment.
Heartbroken, she deeply understood that Yun Ting was so good to her but he was just doing it for his brother.
What Yun Ting loved was never her as a person, but the military power in her brother's hands.
With a calm expression, Song Yue folded her hands and saluted Yun Ting: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Imperial Prefecture.
After a thrilling back-and-forth fight, Nan Yingzhi and Dugu Yue were both sweating profusely as autumn approached.
Seeing that Dugu Yue was a little tired and her dodging speed was slowing down, Nan Yingzhi pretended to be vulnerable and lured her into the trap.
Sure enough, Dugu Yue's eyes lit up when he saw that there was finally a gap in Nan Yingzhi's airtight defense.
She was not good at long battles, and after fighting with Nan Yingzhi, she was already exhausted.
Just like seeing a sweet spring in the vast sea, she rushed forward without hesitation, like a hungry tiger pouncing on its food.
Not only did he kick her but he also stretched out his hand to strangle her throat.
When masters fight, the outcome is often decided in an instant among hundreds of moves.
At this moment, even if Dugu Yue realized where Nan Yingzhi was attacking and wanted to dodge, it was too late.
She had no choice but to watch Nan Yingzhi win.
Feeling that Nan Yingzhi was on par with him in terms of martial arts, but far superior in terms of strategy, Dugu Yue was convinced: "I admire you!"
Nan Yingzhi cupped her hands and said, “Thank you.”
“Your Highness,” Dugu Yue realized that the Imperial Master had an unusual regard for Nan Yingzhi, so she boldly pointed at the Imperial Master and said, “Please come more often. Both he and I welcome you!”
"Thank you for your enthusiasm, but unfortunately, I'm busy recently, so I'm afraid it won't be possible." Nan Yingzhi took out the handkerchief that Yun Ji had given her and wiped her sweat slowly, "Let's talk about it when we have time."
Seeing Dugu Yue looking a little disappointed, the Imperial Master spoke gently, "Master Dugu, if you don't mind, I can practice with you."
"You look like a weak scholar," Dugu Yue shook her head, "Forget it."
The Imperial Master said nothing, but gestured several times with his hands in the air.
Dugu Yue, who was originally agile, suddenly froze in a strange posture.
"Hey, what did you do?" Dugu Yue was horrified, with only his lips able to move. "Why can't I move?"
The Imperial Master smiled and said, "This is the price you pay for calling me weak and calling me half-baked."
"You are such a petty person!" Unable to move, Dugu Yue used all his strength on his mouth, speaking in rapid succession, "I whipped you a few times, but they were not very heavy, and blood immediately appeared on your body.
"You are still fair, but those red marks on your body are more obvious than branding. How can anyone have so many marks all over their body? If you are not weak, what are you?
"That's it, and you still want me to repeat it... Hmm."
Feeling that Dugu Yue had said a lot of words that should not be heard by Nan Yingzhi, the Imperial Master raised his hand and pressed her mute point.
Only when there was no more Dugu Yue's voice in the air did he turn around and smile apologetically at Nan Yingzhi: "I'm sorry, she is a rough person and doesn't think before she speaks. Please forgive me, Miss Nan."
Witnessing everything, Ling Feng's face turned red and he immediately covered his ears with his hands, not wanting to hear any more about the National Master.
Even the experienced Nan Yingzhi couldn't help but be slightly dazed.
She only knew that the Imperial Master had a masochistic tendency, but she had no idea that he had such a dark side.
Nan Yingzhi felt that the way they got along was extremely strange. She bowed and prepared to leave: "Goodbye."
"By the way," the Imperial Master said, wrapping the jade beads back on his wrist, "Miss Nan, be careful on your way back."
