#2010 - From then on, the Queen did not hold court early in the morning.

The morning arrived.

Feng Ling came to Nalan Jingyi's palace early to tell her it was time to get up, or she would be late for the morning court session.

"Feng Ling is calling you, aren't you going to get up?"

On the dragon bed, Jun Wuxie looked at Nalan Jingyi nestled in his arms and gently patted her smooth back.

"Ugh~ I don't want to go to court, can't we skip it today?"

Nalan Jingyi's voice was lazy and sweet.

She felt weak all over, as if the bones in her body were falling apart.

She was almost tormented to death last night.

Now, she had no mood or energy to go to court, only wanting to snuggle comfortably in his warm embrace.

"Fair figure and jade legs entwined around your waist, the dragon bed warms the spring night. After several spring nights, the sun rises high, and from then on, the Empress does not attend morning court."

"Oh, you're so naughty~"

Nalan Jingyi, hearing him recite poetry like this, blushed with embarrassment, raised her head, and bit his collarbone.

However, she did not use force, and her jade-like arms also wrapped around his neck.

"Hahaha!"

Jun Wuxie burst out laughing.

"Young Master, Your Majesty, it's time to get up."

Feng Ling heard the laughter and revealed a look of surprise.

Why was the Young Master laughing, and why did the laughter sound so mischievously blushing?

"Feng Ling, go and tell the ministers that there will be no court session today, and matters can be reported tomorrow."

Jun Wuxie's voice came out.

"Yes."

Feng Ling was slightly stunned, then turned and left.

"Now I finally understand why Ruoqing can't get up every morning.

You bad guy, you're like a wild beast~"

Her voice was soft and糯糯, and after speaking, she leaned over and quickly kissed his face with her charming red lips, then stared at him, giggling to herself.

"Otherwise? I am a pure body cultivator, specializing in the physical body my whole life.

Did you think that body cultivators are only good at fighting?"

Jun Wuxie hooked her chin, his eyes full of aggression.

"Otherwise? What else are you good at? Why don't you let me see?"

She said provocatively.

"Are you sure you can continue like this?"

"Yeah, anyway, there's no court today, right?"

"Empress, you must know how to restrain yourself. A little indulgence in spring nights is pleasant, but too much can hurt the body."

"Really? Why don't I believe it? Is it hurting the body or hurting the kidneys?"

"Nalan Jingyi, you're finished. How dare you provoke me like this? Crying and begging for mercy won't work!"

Enough is enough, it's unbearable. You clearly can't do it, but you still have a sharp tongue. If I don't punish you severely, you won't know how powerful I am.

......

Meanwhile, Feng Ling informed the ministers to return, seeing that the doors of Her Majesty's palace were still tightly closed.

She was full of doubts. What was wrong with the Young Master and Her Majesty today?

Curiosity made her walk into the palace.

Just as she was about to enter the inner chamber, she heard a strange sound, and her face suddenly turned red.

In that instant, she only felt her heart pounding, and she turned around abruptly, running out as if escaping, quickly closing the door.

She leaned her back against the door, feeling her body softening, almost unable to stand, as if her body was about to lose its strength.

......

The next day, in the imperial court.

The ministers reported on matters concerning the frontier.

They stated that the situation on the frontier was becoming increasingly serious.

The Langya Dynasty had gathered more than 30 million troops on the border, and the frontier guards were under immense pressure.

"What good strategies do you ministers have?"

Nalan Jingyi wanted to see what they were planning to do.

"Your Majesty, the Langya Dynasty's border army is different from before.

For months, they have been gathering a large army, and they are probably preparing to attack our frontier Jade Mountain City.

Although there are 20 million guards on the frontier, the Langya army now has twice the number of our dynasty's guards.

If they want to attack the city, they will inevitably continue to mobilize a large army.

If they deploy their most elite troops to the frontier, our guards will inevitably be unable to hold it, and the dynasty will be in danger!"

"Your Majesty, I agree!"

Another minister stood up, saying with a worried face: "The safety of our dynasty's land is at stake, so we must be cautious.

This old minister believes that we should launch a strong counterattack before they mobilize their most elite troops to the border.

As long as Your Majesty deploys one of the two most elite legions guarding the imperial capital to the frontier, coupled with the 20 million guards on the frontier, we can take the initiative to attack and surely kill the Langya army, leaving not a single piece of armor behind!"

"If we can defeat the Langya army this time, we can ensure the stability of the frontier for many years, and the Langya army will definitely not dare to invade again for many years!"

"Your ministers humbly request Your Majesty to deploy the Xuan Iron Legion or the Aegis Legion to the frontier to relieve the Langya crisis!"

Many ministers spoke in unison.

"Outrageous, what are you up to, actually wanting the Emperor to deploy the elite guarding the imperial capital to the frontier!"

The Prime Minister glared at the ministers and said, "The Langya army is only stationing tens of millions of troops!

Does our dynasty, with hundreds of millions of soldiers, still can't defend a mere Langya border?

Mobilizing a large army from other prefectures can solve the problem. Why use the imperial capital's elite?

"Prime Minister, you are mistaken.

Although our dynasty has hundreds of millions of soldiers, it takes a lot of time to mobilize troops from other prefectures.

First of all, it takes some time for the imperial decree to reach the prefectures.

It takes time for each prefecture to reorganize its troops, prepare supplies, and the marching speed is far inferior to that of the imperial capital's elite legions.

If the imperial capital's elite legions go to the frontier, a lot of time can be saved.

Only in this way can we attack the Langya army before their most elite troops arrive at the border and annihilate them!"

"Sophistry!" The Prime Minister snorted coldly and said, "Wanting to annihilate the Langya army is not that easy.

What we need to do now is to defend the frontier Jade Mountain City and the surrounding fortresses.

Although the Langya army has gathered a large army and their numbers exceed our guards by one times, even if they continue to increase their troops, it will take at least several years or even longer for them to break through Jade Mountain City and the major fortresses!

We have plenty of time to transfer troops from various places to support us!

You are trying to get the Emperor to deploy the imperial capital's elite to the frontier. What are you up to? You know it in your hearts!"

"Prime Minister, what do you mean by that?"

The Prince of Lanling, who had been silent all along, spoke, "The ministers are now considering the safety of the country, but instead of thinking about how to solve the Langya crisis once and for all, the Prime Minister is causing internal strife.

As the Prime Minister of the dynasty, doing so will probably make the ministers feel disheartened."

"Enough, in the imperial court, we are discussing matters of the country, Prince, stop stirring up opposition."

Nalan Jingyi said in a deep voice.

Then, she looked at Jun Wuxie and said, "Minister Yue, you are the Minister of War, what is your opinion on the Langya matter?"

"Your Majesty, the Langya army crisis should indeed be resolved. As the ministers said, if we can defeat the Langya Dynasty's border army gathered on the border, I believe they will not be able to provoke trouble on the frontier for a long time.

This minister suggests that Your Majesty personally lead the expedition.

If this battle is victorious, it will not only defeat the arrogant arrogance of the Langya Dynasty, ensure the stability of the frontier for many years, but also promote Your Majesty's imperial power!"

Instantly, the court was silent.

All eyes were focused on him.

Whether it was the Prime Minister's faction or the Prince of Lanling's camp, they were all shocked by his suggestion.

Which side is this Minister Yue on?

He actually wanted the Emperor to personally lead the expedition?

The ministers loyal to the Prince of Lanling couldn't help but laugh inwardly.

If the Emperor agreed to personally lead the expedition, it would simply be a godsend.

Wouldn't this be a great help to the Prince of Lanling?

With the Emperor in the imperial capital, because the royal family has two Celestial God experts, the Prince of Lanling cannot move him unless he is willing to engage in a Celestial God battle and carry out a strong kill.

But the consequences of that are very serious, and it will inevitably greatly damage the strength of the Wangfu and the dynasty.

The loss in the number of top experts will bring immeasurable consequences.

"Minister Yue, do you know what you are saying?"

The Prime Minister couldn't understand. Wasn't Minister Yue the Emperor's confidant?

How could he give the Emperor such a bad idea?

Letting the Emperor personally lead the expedition, wouldn't that be sending the Emperor to his death?

Not to mention whether he can reach the frontier Jade Mountain City alive.

Even if he reaches the frontier, whether it is the Prince of Lanling or the Langya army, they will definitely try to kill the Emperor.

"Minister Yue is right, as expected of the Minister of War, his vision is farther than the Prime Minister's."

The Prince of Lanling said with a smile.

He didn't know what this Yue was planning or playing.

But as long as the Emperor leaves the imperial capital and goes to the frontier, then everything will be in his control.

Once he leaves the imperial capital, beyond the reach of the royal family's two Celestial Gods, wouldn't it be easy to deal with the Emperor?

He didn't know where this Yue got the courage and confidence to let the Emperor personally lead the expedition.

This was something that the Prince of Lanling hadn't expected, a completely unexpected gain!

"Since you ministers all think that we should solve the Langya crisis once and for all, and Minister Yue has suggested that I personally lead the expedition.

Then, I will listen to Minister Yue's advice and decide to personally lead the expedition, and set off for the frontier tomorrow!"

What?

The Emperor actually agreed, and will set off tomorrow, meaning that she will be going alone, without bringing an army?

"Your Majesty, you are not taking the imperial capital's elite legion?"

The Prince of Lanling felt very surprised.

"No need, the 20 million soldiers on the frontier are enough.

Tomorrow, I only need Minister Yue and Feng Ling to accompany me."

"Your Majesty! Absolutely not!"

The Prime Minister was shocked and knelt down, pleading: "This old minister begs Your Majesty not to go to the frontier!"

"Prime Minister, please get up quickly.

This matter, I have made up my mind, Prime Minister, there is no need to say more."

"Your Majesty!"

The Prime Minister was emotional and looked at the pillar in the court, saying: "If Your Majesty insists on going to the frontier, this old minister will die by crashing into the court today!"

Nalan Jingyi sighed and said, "Prime Minister, you are a powerhouse at the Heavenly God Absolute Heaven Realm. Could this mere pillar kill you? Even if you were to collapse the entire imperial court, I'm afraid it wouldn't be enough to kill you.

Prime Minister, please don't act like this. If you continue in this manner, you are forcing my hand. As ruler and subject, is it really necessary for you to act this way?"

"Your Majesty, this old minister is utterly disappointed in you! It seems the Nalan royal family's reign is in peril. What misfortune for the dynasty! Former Emperor, ah, this old minister is incompetent, unable to dissuade Your Majesty. I have failed your trust!"

The Prime Minister knelt on the ground and began to weep loudly.

Suddenly, he glared at Jun Wuxie, pointing at him and shouting, "Minister Yue, this Prime Minister originally thought you were loyal to the Emperor, but now it seems you are also a treacherous villain with the ambitions of a wolf!"

"Prime Minister, you are too kind," Jun Wuxie replied, unfazed by the Prime Minister's words.

"Enough! Prime Minister, cease your nonsense. Today's morning court is adjourned!"

Nalan Jingyi was angered. Although she knew the Prime Minister was loyal, she felt uncomfortable that he would speak about her man in such a way.

Nalan Jingyi rose and left.

As Lan Ling Wang departed the court, he cast a cold smile at the Prime Minister, who remained kneeling on the ground, his eyes devoid of light.

"Prime Minister, things have come to this. Let us go," several ministers said with sighs.

The Prime Minister, however, seemed not to hear them. The men shook their heads and sighed, eventually leaving as well.

In the imperial court, only Jun Wuxie and the Prime Minister remained.

Jun Wuxie went to help him up, but the Prime Minister violently shook him off, angrily scolding, "Get away from me, you treacherous villain! This old man was blind! You are bewitching the Emperor. You will be punished!"

The Prime Minister's hair stood on end, his eyes were bloodshot, and veins bulged on his neck and temples.

"On what basis does the Prime Minister believe that His Majesty's campaign will not be a great victory?"

"You still dream of a great victory? Just surviving the journey to the border is a question!" The Prime Minister sneered upon hearing this.

"Indeed, from the Prime Minister's perspective, that would be the logical outcome. Just as, over the years, you have watched Lan Ling Wang usurp imperial power, yet remained helpless.

When asked to help the Emperor change this predicament, you are incapable of this, and incapable of that. Of course, I am not mocking the Prime Minister.

It's simply that your abilities are insufficient. The Prime Minister should believe that there are people and things in this world that exceed your understanding.

What the Prime Minister believes to be the limit or the end may only be the starting point for others."

After Jun Wuxie finished speaking, he prepared to leave. He originally did not want to say these things to the Prime Minister.

The main reason was that this old man was a bit stubborn. He was truly afraid that the Prime Minister would not be able to think straight and commit suicide here in the imperial court.
