Just then, the empress dowager said, “Are you overthinking it because of what
Feng Wu said? Is something wrong with Junjun? Tell me!”
Emperor Wu waved her off. “It has nothing to do with the crown prince.”
The empress dowager said angrily, “If it’s not about Junjun, what is it? Why are you so disturbed? Is Feng Wu in trouble? Didn’t she go to the Dongsang Kingdom? Is she in trouble?”
Emperor Wu frowned. “Mother, how did you know that?”
The empress dowager smirked. “I don’t care about worldly affairs. Do you really think I’m deaf? Someone will tell me what’s going on outside.”
The empress dowager darted an indifferent glance at the empress as she spoke.
Of course, Emperor Wu saw it. The empress must have told the empress dowager something to make her speculate.
Emperor Wu recalled how Feng Wu had single-handedly infiltrated the
Dongsang Kingdom at the risk of her own life and disturbed the peace there. She had single-handedly tricked the Dongsang Emperor, Night Owl, Lord Jing, and Princess Yan Ling.
The girl was a great contributor. Not only couldn’t Emperor Wu publicly reward her, but someone had also slandered her!
Emperor Wu’s face darkened.
“Your Majesty…” The empress dowager’s stomach lurched when she saw the look on Emperor Wu’s face.
Rubbing his forehead, the Junwu Empire said to the empress dowager,
“Mother, please go pack your things.”
The empress dowager said, “What?”
Emperor Wu said, “Mother, I think you should go to Mount Qintai and stay in the temple for the time being.”
The empress dowager stared at Emperor Wu in astonishment.
What the hell?
It was December and New Year’s Eve was only a few days away. No one would go out in the middle of the night like that.
“Has he lost his mind?” The empress dowager wanted to check the temperature of Emperor Wu’s forehead, but Emperor Wu only said solemnly, “Mother, if you really want to help me, go to Mount Qintai and live there.”
Maybe… she could still live.
Emperor Wu was filled with despair.
The Junwu Empire had always been on friendly terms with the Nanling Empire. Therefore, Emperor Wu had high hopes that the kingdom would take in a few people, but they turned him down.
Therefore, Emperor Wu had to send the empress dowager to Qintai Mountain.
“Your Majesty!” Seeing how stubborn Emperor Wu was, the empress dowager was a little angry. Her son had never disobeyed her, but now, nothing she said would work!
“The empress dowager isn’t the only one going. Dugu, you’re going as well. Take Linshen with you.” Emperor Wu told the empress.
That way, at least one more member of the royal family would be alive.
Empress Dugu frowned. “Your Majesty, has something happened? Why are you so…”
Emperor Wu took a deep breath and suddenly had a shortness of breath. He coughed so hard that he thought his lungs were going to fall out.
“Your Majesty…” Empress Dugu rushed to his side.
Emperor Wu waved his hand. He knew that they wouldn’t go if he didn’t tell them. Even if they did, they might not survive. At that thought, he straightened his face and told Master Chu, “Give Her Majesty the empress dowager a quick-acting pill.”
Was it that serious? The empress dowager shuddered. Had something really happened to her Junjun?
Emperor Wu only told them what was going to happen after the empress dowager took the pill.
“The Junwu Empire may not survive this.” It took Emperor Wu a lot of courage to say those words..
