After the imperial eunuch suffered an unprecedented cold respond in Xiao w.a.n.gfu, he returned to the palace to give a reply. The emperor asked about Xiao Tianyao’s reaction. The eunuch said that Xiao w.a.n.gye and Xiao w.a.n.gfu didn’t put the emperor into their eyes.

Although the eunuch reported in exaggeration, Xiao w.a.n.gfu was indeed not respectful. When the emperor heard of this, he was so angry that he had shortness in breath. He almost fell on his seat. Fortunately, Imperial Doctor Qin immediately came.

After Imperial Doctor Qin gave emergency treatment to the emperor, the emperor’s condition has stabilized. Imperial Doctor Qin kneel beside the bed and said: “Huangshang, to be safe, you mustn’t get angry all the time.”

The emperor was only in his early 40s, but his condition was not as good as before. It can be seen how the current situation pressured the emperor.

“Zhen don’t want to get angry to be safe. But, can these pile of troubles make you feel at ease?” The emperor had a gloomy face. Everyone could see that he was in a bad mood. Imperial Doctor Qin didn’t open his mouth again. As a doctor, he did his duty.

A eunuch trotting inside, but seeing the emperor’s complexion was not good, he lowered his voice and said: “Huangshang, his royal highness the third prince and seventh prince are here.”

“The third prince and the seventh prince? Why did they come?” The emperor frowned, seemingly dissatisfied.

Imperial Doctor Qin knew what the emperor was thinking, so he said: “Huangshang, before this subject arrived, I was in the third prince’s courtyard, the seventh prince was also there. They may have heard your highness is feeling uncomfortable, that’s why they specifically come to see you.”

“Let them in.” The emperor’s face eased a lot.

He was in his prime, but his sons are all big. He himself was a prince before and experience dispute to get this position. He knew very clear what his big sons thinks all day long.

Whether it was his women in the harem or his sons, the emperor doesn’t like them to keep an eye on his whereabouts. Especially, about his health. But, the emperor was even more reluctant for the outsiders know this.

The third prince now has a good body and can go out of his bed for a short time, but it’s still not appropriate for him to go too far. Therefore, he was still in his wheelchair, while the seventh prince stayed behind him all the time.

The two brothers came in one after the other, but there were traces of concerns in their eyes.

“Imperial father, are you okay?” The third prince turned his wheelchair and went close to the bed.

“It’s nothing, just tired.” When the emperor saw his two favorite sons, his face softens.

The Seventh Prince deliberately came one step late, but affectionately went to the foot side of the emperor: “Imperial father, this son heard the eunuch’s words, and got worried to death. Fortunately, imperial father is fine.”

“Imperial father, everything will be fine.” Although the third prince doesn’t intervene in the court affairs, the battle between the north and the east was not a secret. The third prince knew the situation was tight.

The emperor wrinkled his eyebrows and think, but then relaxes them: “Zian’s words are correct, everything will be fine.” He could destroy Xiao Tianyao once, so he could destroy him the second time.

Things on the battlefield keep changing rapidly, it’s not impossible for Xiao Tianyao to die on the battlefield. Any strong country can be torn apart, as long as Xiao Tianyao, a martial G.o.d exists.

But of course, before he takes Xiao Tianyao’s life, he will wait for him to defeat the Northern Army first.

Due to the arrival of the third prince and the seventh prince, many people in the harem learned that the emperor was unwell. Afterward, they also came to visit the emperor one by one. The third prince and the seventh prince didn’t stay long, the two retired early.

After the third prince and the seventh prince separated on the road, the seventh prince went to the empress’s palace courtyard. When he entered, he heard the empress’s violent coughing. The seventh prince immediately comes inside, disregarding their ident.i.ty. He knelt in front of the empress’s bed and anxiously asked: “What happened to you imperial mother?

*Ahem, ahem*

The empress covered her mouth with a handkerchief and secretly wiped the blood on her mouth. She gently touch the seventh prince’s hand and said in a gentle way: “Imperial mother is fine, just had a cold last night.”

“Really?” The seven prince didn’t believe it at all. The empress got up from her bed to prove that she was not lying: “Imperial mother is really okay. Silly child, rest a.s.sured, mother wants to see you get marry and have children.”

“Imperial mother, you keep lying down.” The seventh prince helped the empress and refused to let her stay up. The seventh prince sat on the bed and held the empress’s hand tightly: “Imperial mother, Imperial Uncle Tianyao will go to the battlefield after two days. This is a good opportunity for us. If something bad happened to Imperial Uncle, Sister Chujiu will definitely come to save him out of love. Maybe, we can contact someone from the central empire to delay her.”

When the empress thinks of Xiao Tianyao’s care towards Lin Chujiu. Her heart already give up. But, when she saw the worry in her son’s eyes, she nodded and said: “Little seven, rest a.s.sured, mother has long made an arrangement.”

When the imperial decree was sent, news about Xiao Tianyao’s nearing expedition was posted on the public board. At that moment, the atmosphere in the capital has changed. The street suddenly had many pa.s.sersby. The spies of all the countries went crazy. Especially, the spies of the North.

When the spies of the North learned that Xiao Tianyao’s legs were cured, they knew he will lead an army and go in the battlefield again. So in order to take down cities of the east before Xiao Tianyao could send his troops, they dispatched martial G.o.ds. They wanted to defeat the east in one fell swoop, but… …

The battle was harder than they thought. And instead of achieving their desired victory, they only give Xiao Tianyao an opportunity to appear in the battlefield a bit more ahead of time.

Xiao Tianyao’s nearing expedition is extremely unfavorable for the Northern Country. They must find a way to prevent him from appearing on the battlefield, or they must kill him before he even wins in his first battle.

The news quickly flew from the east to all over the countries. Although their actions were all in secret, it was after all under the foot of the emperor’s territory. Their movements were so big, so how could the emperor not know about it, it’s just… …

He was aware, but will not care.

Spying was an unclean activity. However, even if he killed these batch of spies, the other countries will not stop from there. Instead, they might send out more spies to the east, and they might hide deeper.

So rather letting this thing to happen, it’s better to keep these batch of fools. He already know where these spies are. His people have long been monitoring them.

The action of these spies seems to be in secret. But in fact, everyone knows it, it’s just no one tried to mention it.

When Su Cha received the news last night, he hasn’t closed his eyes, he collected all the latest information for Xiao Tianyao. Su Cha lies on his table and said: “The spies all over the countries are crazy. The south, the west, and the north, even the central empire is paying attention to your upcoming battle. The road ahead will not be peaceful.”

There were too many people who want Xiao Tianyao to die. Not only the North Country want Xiao Tianyao to die while on the way to the battlefield, but also the Southern and Western Country.

Without Xiao Tianyao, the eastern and northern war will drag for a long period of time. By the time the east military power greatly reduced, it will be their country’s opportunity to rise… …
