verge of death. It took her half a day to finally get her breath back."...Jun Liye was already numb with anger."Great! You damn ugly woman, this king remembers you!She successfully sold the oil bottl...Su Qingying's eyes welled up, and she almost cried again, "Pshh pshh pshh! Father, you're not old at all! Not one bit! Men your age are even more charming!" "Hahaha, you, you always know how to please your father..." 。Su Chengming wanted to ease the tension, but he was coughing so badly he couldn't catch his breath. "Cough cough cough, cough cough..." Su Qingying's heart clenched. She didn't care about anything else and dragged him onto the bed, forcing him to rest. “Father Emperor, you’re unwell, you should just rest. Look at you, your face is as white as paper.” 。"Alright, Father, listen to Ying'er." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Su Cheng Ming followed the flow and lay down, nodding slightly without refuting. He was enjoying Su Qingying's service immensely. 。"Father, please rest for a while. I'll come see you later. Let's set aside the imperial edicts for now. Brother is here anyway, so there's no rush." 。“Gently tucking the blanket over him, Su Qingying held his hand tightly, her tone leaving no room for argument.” 。"Hmph, my Ying'er has really grown up." 。Su Chengming tugged at the corner of his mouth in relief. Every time he coughed, his body would become extremely weary, and he would fall asleep soon after. 。Not until Su Chengming had fallen into a deep sleep did Su Qingying tiptoe out of the room. After carefully shutting the palace door, she lowered her voice and said, "Master Lü..." 。"

“The Fifth Princess”

The gatekeeper, in a respectful manner, bowed. 。"How long has Father been coughing like that" Her father had always been in good health, and this sudden violent cough made her suspicious!Someone dared to scheme against her father This time, whoever it was, she would not show any mercy!"Not long, just these past few days..." 。"The gatekeeper sighed, his heart heavy with worry." 。Just these few days Su Qingying pursed her lips, a cold glint flashing between her brows. 。"Then, what has he eaten these past few days Who has come to see him" "This, Your Majesty's meals these past few days are no different from usual. Furthermore, every dish served to Your Majesty has been inspected and is safe." 。"The gatekeeper replied with a humble bow, "As for who has come here, there have been many. I can't recall them all at the moment." 。"Master Xiao Lü, from today onwards, please record the names of everyone who visits my father's palace." 。"Now she had no clue about the emperor's strange condition, and could only use this method to expose the mastermind behind it! "What did the fifth princess say Taking care of the emperor is also within our purview!" 。"Thank you." 。Su Qingying lightly nodded, looking towards the distant void. For some reason, she always felt a layer of gloominess in her heart, inexplicably making her feel oppressed and uneasy. 。Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch. 。Rest station 。Shangguan Jinghong had traveled all day by boat and carriage, just preparing to take off his clothes for a good night's sleep, when suddenly, the flickering candlelight flickered for a moment 。Shengong Jinghong's eyes narrowed slightly, immediately understanding. He casually sat on the bed and then playfully teased, "Hei Xin Ye, you finally deigned to come back I thought you had forgotten about this dear.""This king has been thinking about you for so long, how could he not care" Jun Liye walked out from the shadows, not surprised that his identity was guessed. 。"Oh, it was you who proposed marriage, yet I'm the one left exhausted like a dog, tsk, it's not worth it, really not worth it." 。"Sheng Hong furrowed his brows and fanned himself with the Jade Bone Fan, his eyes narrowed. "By the way, when do you plan to formally propose to the little girl This grand welcoming procession has attracted attention from other countries." 。" I will enter the palace tomorrow morning to avoid any unexpected developments overnight. 。Seeing so many annoying flies swarming around his wife, he naturally wanted to take her back home as soon as possible. 。Upon hearing this, Shangguan Jinghong paused her jade bone fan's movement and exclaimed in surprise, "This eager This palace has just arrived in Dongyue, aren't you afraid that this palace can't handle it" Jun Liye lazily raised an eyelid, nonchalantly replied, "Your abilities, this king still has a number." 。"Well then, thank you very much for your trust." 。"Shangguan Jinghong gave him a withering glance and said through gritted teeth." 。 "You're welcome, get some rest. You have to enter the palace early tomorrow morning, don't embarrass me." 。After saying that, Jun Liye left without looking back. 。

“……”Shangguan Jinghong blinked her eyes, dumbfounded. After a long while, she covered her heart and sighed with heartache, “Tsk, this couple is really one of a kind! Both black-hearted!”

The next day, the sun rose in the east, and golden light passed through the water droplets on the leaves, refracting into colorful hues, breathtakingly beautiful

Early in the morning, on the official road of Dongyue Kingdom's capital city, a grand entourage began to line up and slowly make their way toward the palace. Their impressive presence attracted numerous onlookers among the common people. 。

At the East Yue Imperial Palace, Su Chengming was attending court with all the civil and military officials. As the meeting was about to end, a guard rushed into the hall and knelt on the ground, shouting: "Report to Your Majesty! I have an important matter to report! The Prince Regent of Beiling and the Crown Prince of Beiling are requesting an audience outside the palace." 。"

Prince Regent of Beiling

Jun Liye's name is well-known throughout the land. As soon as it was heard that he had arrived, all the officials and courtiers were in an uproar, buzzing with discussion " 。"Oh What are they here for" Su Chengming was also taken aback, quite puzzled by Jun Linyue's intention in coming to Dongyue. 。Under the stage, Su Ziyi calmly pursed her beautiful lips, a bad premonition lurking in her heart. 。"Reporting to Your Majesty, I am unaware of the details. However, rumors abound that Prince Regent and Crown Prince of Beiling have journeyed a thousand miles from their northern lands with a procession of ten leagues of scarlet silks to arrive in our Eastern Mount. This news has caused quite a stir, drawing significant attention from other nations." 。The guard replied truthfully. 。"Ten miles of red makeup What do they want to do" Hearing this, Su Chengming was even more confused. He thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out. "Forget it, let them come in quickly." 。After all, he is the regent who holds heavy troops. One must absolutely not offend him. 。The guards dared not delay and hurried to invite Jun Liye and Shangguan Jinghong. In a short while, the elegant Jun Liye in white and the alluring Shangguan Jinghong in red arrived side by side at the front of the hall. 。With a polite nod, the two men said in unison: "Prince Regent of Beiling (Crown Prince of Beiling), greets Emperor Dongyue. Wishing Emperor Dongyue good fortune, health and longevity." 。"Prince Regent of Beiling, Prince of Beiling, both of you have good intentions, but I don't know why you came from afar. What is the matter" Su Chengming said in confusion. 。Jun Liye smirked, not bothering to answer immediately. Instead, her gaze swept over Su Ziyue with a faint touch, the deep smile hidden in her blood-red eyes made Su Ziyue's uneasy premonition grow stronger. 。To be honest, Your Majesty, the reason I traveled all the way to Mount Dongyue today is for one thing. I hope that the Emperor of Mount Dongyue will grant my wish. 。Even in person, Ke Junli's aura was no less imposing than Su Cheng's. 。"Your Highness is too kind, please do speak freely." 。“I’ve never seen Jun Liye be this polite to anyone before. Su Chengming felt a little surprised.” 。Jun Li's gaze slowly swept over everyone present, finally landing back on Su Chengming. A slight smirk played on his thin lips as he said seriously, "This king has admired Su Qingying for a long time, and today I vow to give her ten miles of red makeup, not for anything else, but only to ask the Emperor Dongyue to bestow her upon this king." 。"im such a hateful look, contrasting with the vastly different treatment she gave him, made Jun Li Ye nearly furious. Jealousy burned fiercely in his heart, threatening to consume his rationality.Of co...
