I asked you to save the villain, not to take him as your wife!

"Princess Princess?" General He was obviously surprised.

"That's right." Bai Qiu Ming nodded.

"Is it that princess?" General He asked again.

"No." Bai Qiu Ming hastily denied.

This cannot be admitted.

If he admitted it, he would have to marry Princess Jing'an.

"What is that?" General He asked curiously.

"Oh, General He, please don't ask anymore. The Great Zhou is in a turbulent time right now. What if I go too late and he dies?" Bai Qiu Ming was extremely anxious.

General He thought Bai Qiu Ming was talking about the future prince consort.

He suddenly became anxious.

In the end, he listened to Bai Qiu Ming's suggestion.

However, it is not necessary to go to war.

What His Royal Highness meant was actually to attract the attention of the Northwest Army.

General He is familiar with this matter.

Back then, the queen, who was still the prince’s consort at the time, led them to use this trick and caught the enemy off guard several times.

His Royal Highness the Prince is indeed the Queen’s biological son. His train of thought is exactly the same.

Bai Qiu Ming led a group of people and took a detour into the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Then they rode at full speed towards the imperial capital.

He wanted to see what Zhou Ji was doing.

He is dragging the Northwestern Army at the border, what on earth is he doing in the imperial capital?

Or was there some accident?

This isn't quite right.

If something unexpected happened to Zhou Ji, his mission should have failed, and the system should have notified him.

But there was no movement in the system, which showed that there was no need to worry about Zhou Ji's life safety.

Then there were other accidents.

Bai Qiu Ming and his companions rode at full speed, traveling day and night, and finally arrived at the imperial capital on the third day.

After entering the imperial capital, the system began to be used.

Bai Qiu Ming soon learned about the current situation.

The Emperor of Zhou was paralyzed in bed, and Zhou Ji was the crown prince in charge of state affairs.

Isn’t this a very good situation?

Since the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been paralyzed, the country cannot be without a ruler for a day, so he should abdicate and become the emperor emeritus, and Zhou Ji should take the throne!

However, before Bai Qiu Ming could think about it, their team was surrounded.

"Aren't you Guard Zhao?" Bai Qiu Ming was a little confused when he saw the leader.

This is Zhou Ji's man, why are we surrounding him?

Could it be that he is just one step away from ascending the throne, so he is ready to turn his back on me? !

"Your Highness, how are you?" Guard Zhao bowed.

Then he said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince asked me to stay here and take you into the palace when I see you."

Bai Qiu Ming suddenly understood.

I don't mean to turn my back on you.

"Let's go." Bai Qiu Ming believed that he still understood Zhou Ji's character.

If he doesn't go, he will come and invite him over in person soon.

A group of people just entered the imperial capital and soon entered the palace.

After entering the palace, Bai Qiu Ming was invited to a side hall of the imperial study to have tea.

After Bai Qiuming sat down, he said to Guard Zhao who brought him over, "Guard Zhao, please arrange the meal."

"You're so rude." A voice came from outside.

Bai Qiu Ming looked up and saw Zhou Ji in golden prince's clothes.

"Now that you're here, make some arrangements quickly. I'm starving." Bai Qiu Ming was really rude.

After all, we are friends who have been through thick and thin together. When we come to his place, we should at least provide him with enough food.

Zhou Ji nodded to Guard Zhao, who immediately bowed and left.

Bai Qiu Ming didn't care about that. He grabbed the teapot, poured himself a cup of tea, and ate some snacks with the tea.

"Aren't you afraid that I will poison you to death?" Zhou Ji sat down next to him and glanced at him.

"Ah? You poisoned it?" Bai Qiu Ming paused while eating snacks.

"Guess." Zhou Ji looked at him quietly before uttering these two words.

Bai Qiu Ming continued eating and waved his hand: "I won't guess."

"Aren't you afraid that I poisoned you?" Zhou Ji looked at Bai Qiu Ming in surprise.

"I'm scared, but I've already eaten it, so at least I'm full." Bai Qiu Ming said nonchalantly.

Zhou Ji snorted, but laughed.

"What are you doing back?" Zhou Ji asked after laughing.

"Then why did you let Guard Zhao wait at the city gate? Wasn't it because you thought I would come back?" Bai Qiu Ming took a sip of tea and asked in return.

Zhou Ji was silent for a moment.

He guessed that Bai Qiu Ming would come back.

But he wasn't sure.

Seeing that Bai Qiu Ming really came back, he felt a little complicated.

Zhou Ji stopped talking, and Bai Qiu Ming was also happy to have some free time.

The snacks tasted delicious.

"Okay, stop eating." Zhou Ji reached out and snatched the snack from Bai Qiu Ming's hand.

Bai Qiu Ming immediately raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Ji quietly.

His eyes were wet and pitiful, and Zhou Ji's gaze flickered unconsciously.

"There will be a sumptuous dinner at the welcoming banquet later," Zhou Ji explained.

Bai Qiu Ming immediately smiled again: "You should have said so earlier."

Although the snack tasted good, it was dry and not very delicious.

"By the way, where is my seventeenth sister?" Bai Qiu Ming asked.

Before he left, he asked Zhou Ji to take a letter to Bai Yushuang, asking her to try her best to protect Zhou Ji.

Fortunately, he is back, but why is Bai Yushuang nowhere to be seen?

"Don't worry, she's fine." Zhou Ji said in a cold tone.

Bai Qiu Ming immediately realized that something was wrong.

"What exactly happened?" Bai Qiu Ming asked worriedly.

There's something wrong with Zhou Ji's tone.

I hope something happened to his seventeenth sister?

If an accident really happened, he would be so sorry to her.

Zhou Ji didn't really want to talk about this, but when he saw Bai Qiuming's worried frown, he frowned and spoke:

"She broke two of my cousin's ribs."

"Two what?" Bai Qiu Ming asked as if he had just lost his hearing.

"Ribs." Zhou Ji rolled his eyes at him.

Bai Qiuming: “…”

Bai Qiu Ming looked left and right, not knowing what to say for a moment.

His seventeenth sister seems to be a little too aggressive.

but……

"Why did my Seventeenth Sister break your cousin's ribs for no reason?" Bai Qiu Ming suddenly asked curiously.

"A misunderstanding." Zhou Ji said calmly.

In fact, Bai Yushuang was there to protect Zhou Ji, and then his cousin didn't believe it and doubted Bai Yushuang's kung fu.

Then he was knocked down by Bai Yushuang with just a few moves.

But he still refused to give in even after being knocked down, so Bai Yushuang had no choice but to use ruthless force.

Look, two ribs are broken.

It can be said to be very sad and miserable.

Later, when Bai Yushuang found out that the person whose ribs she broke was Zhou Ji's cousin, she felt a little embarrassed.

I go to check on him every few days and show some superficial concern.

"By the way, why don't you let the emperor become the emperor emeritus directly, and you become the emperor?" Bai Qiu Ming asked the question that had been on his mind for the past few days.

Zhou Ji looked at Bai Qiuming and said calmly, "Because I'm waiting for you."
