The daughter of a general is reborn to save the whole family of the marquis

What Runxue and his wife did in Yanzhou City reached Chu Heyi's ears at the fastest speed. She was not surprised by this, because Runxue's bandit logic and words have always been very powerful.

When Runxue and his wife escaped from Shengjing City, she thought of today's outcome.

Since then, the Great Qi Kingdom has been in a state of division.

Yanzhou City and Lan City regard Dongfang Shuo and his wife as their kings, hoping that they will conquer Shengjing City in the future and take back all other prefectures except Yanzhou City and Lan City.

Yes, take it back. In the eyes of the people of Yanzhou City and Lan City, King Cheng and his wife are the embodiment of justice, while Xie Lin and Chu Heyi are traitors.

Apart from these two prefectures, people in other parts of Daqi believed that Xie Lin and Chu Heyi were the righteous side, and Dongfang Shuo and Runxue were traitors.

A general volunteered to lead troops to attack Runxue and his wife and recapture the two cities of Yanzhou and Lancheng.

For this matter, the court officials argued endlessly in the Purple Palace, but there was no result for a long time. So they asked Chu Heyi to invite His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to make the decision.

Chu Heyi said: "I have already told His Royal Highness the Crown Prince about this matter. The Northern Zhou is ready to attack, and its power has already penetrated deep into our Great Qi Shengjing City. Now is not the best time to attack Yanzhou City. Our top priority now is to concentrate our forces to deal with the Northern Zhou."

Chu Heyi has been involved in politics for some time, but Xie Lin has not shown up. She told the public that Xie Lin has woken up, but he is weak and the imperial physician asked him to rest, so he cannot come out to face the court officials.

This statement was useful at first, but now as time goes by, the lie is gradually becoming ineffective.

An official named Yin said, "The Great Qi Kingdom belongs to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, not the Crown Princess. We have been listening to the Crown Princess for more than a month. It's time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come out and talk to us! Otherwise, we will all think that the Crown Princess has the final say in the Great Qi Kingdom!"

Immediately, other court officials echoed this, looking very fierce, as if Chu Heyi was their enemy.

"We must meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince today! As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince says that he will not attack the King and Queen Cheng and will not recover the lost territory, we will never mention it again!"

Chu Heyi narrowed his eyes and looked at those ministers. As far as he remembered, these people had been quite close to King Cheng and his wife. He thought that they should be their followers.

Now that King Cheng and his wife have been defeated and fled to Yanzhou City, their dream of following the emperor has been shattered. They had tolerated her for so long probably just to have enough reason to explode today.

Chu Heyi said in a deep voice: "When did I say that I would not attack the Cheng Wang couple? When did I say that I would not retake Yanzhou City and Lancheng? Since Yanzhou City and Lancheng are the cities of my Daqi, I will take them back one day!"

Lord Yin snorted, "There has never been a precedent of a woman presiding over state affairs in Daqi. Now we have to listen to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! The Emperor is seriously ill, and the Crown Prince is the regent, not the Crown Princess!"

Chu Heyi was neither annoyed nor angry, but said firmly: "His Royal Highness is weak, the imperial physician said that he must stay in bed and rest. I will not allow anyone to disturb His Royal Highness!"

"Is it that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince must stay in bed and recuperate, or is it that the Crown Princess is ambitious and wants to change the name of the Daqi Empire to Chu?" Lord Yin almost jumped up and shouted angrily.

The rough voice echoed in the hall, and the other ministers weakly checked Chu Heyi's face.

However, Chu Heyi's expression did not change at all. He even looked back at Lord Yin in front of him without fear. He just looked at him quietly and firmly.

Lord Yin was surprised at her calmness and the silent strength in her eyes. He began to panic, but the blood of anger rushed to his head.

He roared again: "The emperor is seriously ill, the prince is seriously ill, can the princess rely on her father and brother's great military achievements to steal the Daqi kingdom!"

There was silence for a moment in the Zichen Hall.

Everyone looked straight at Chu Heyi.

Chu Heyi looked him straight in the eyes, still showing no intention of backing down: "My Chu family has no intention of stealing the Daqi Kingdom. I am guarding His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and not letting you see him. I am protecting him and also protecting the Daqi Kingdom.

"If Lord Yin continues to talk nonsense, I will suspect that Lord Yin is a follower of the King Cheng and his wife. When the Northern Zhou Dynasty was coming, he deliberately let our Daqi soldiers attack the King Cheng and his wife and make unnecessary sacrifices."

Her voice was full of majesty and intimidation.

Lord Yin stammered and took a step back involuntarily, and someone immediately came forward to smooth things over.

"Yanzhou City and Lancheng have become places where traitors have declared themselves kings. Any righteous person would find it difficult to accept this situation. It is understandable that Lord Yin wants to recover the lost territory! It's just that Lord Yin spoke too hastily. I hope the Crown Princess will forgive me."

"If Lord Yin really cares about Daqi, I will certainly forgive Lord Yin's crime." Chu Heyi said, "But if Lord Yin is an accomplice of the Cheng Wang couple who stayed in Shengjing City, the day I get the evidence, I will behead Lord Yin and show him to the public! I will never tolerate it!"

She looked at Lord Yin, her eyes burning and deep, and although she was thin and frail, she was majestic.

Lord Yin couldn't help but tremble all over. After Chu Heyi turned and left, he staggered and almost fell.

Chu Heyi returned to Qianqiu Palace and looked at Xie Lin who was still sleeping. He was much thinner than before and his face was pale.

However, there were several times before when she saw Xie Lin frowning and shaking his head, sweating profusely, as if he was experiencing great pain and about to wake up, but until now, he has not woken up.

Chu Heyi sat beside the bed, holding his hand, and told him everything that Runxue and his wife had done in Yanzhou City.

He also told everything that had just happened in the Zichen Palace and what Lord Yin had said.

After she finished speaking, she realized belatedly that a tear had risen from her eye and fell on the back of Xie Lin's hand. She quickly wiped it away.

Chu Heyi stared at Xie Lin for a long time, and then did not utter another word.

Baihua came to find her.

She was filled with righteous indignation, "Crown Princess, Lord Yin is really too much. Not only did he target you in the Purple Palace this morning, but in the afternoon, he also slandered you outside the palace!"

Chu Heyi tucked Xie Lin in, then stood up and walked out of the palace: "How did Lord Yin slander me?"

The master and servant turned their backs and did not notice that Xie Lin's fingers hidden in the quilt moved slightly.

Baihua: "Lord Yin said that the Crown Prince previously introduced court loans to reduce the burden on the people; later he implemented the four-square grid rice planting method to increase the people's income. Everything he did was beneficial to the country and the people.

"The counterpart is Princess Cheng of Yanzhou City. She introduced the curved plow and became a role model for women. Therefore, Princess Cheng is very popular in Yanzhou City and Lan City. And you, Crown Princess..."

Chu Heyi asked: "What about me?"

Baihua said with difficulty: "He said that you are too far from Princess Cheng, but you want to occupy the position of Crown Princess, and do not allow His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come out to handle state affairs. He said that you...you and the Chu family have bad intentions."

Xie Lin, who had been sleeping for a long time, suddenly opened his eyes.
