Chapter 539 The heart of the monarch and his ministers
Seeing Feng Suiying sweating on his forehead, Yun Wuhen looked at him with confusion on his face.
"Feng Suiying, what's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much all at once?"
"..." Feng Suiying did not dare to look directly into Yun Wuhen's eyes.
Hold the wound tightly.
"You were so frightened that my wounds split open. What you just said was heard by our emperor, and he had to skin both of us!"
"..." Yun Wuhen subconsciously covered his mouth, looking like he was recovering.
"Fortunately, it's just you and me today. These words must not reach the Emperor's ears."
Feng Suiying secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but still had doubts in his heart.
"Wuhen, you just said that the emperor cherishes the queen!"
He pretended to be fighting for the emperor.
"What about the Queen? What does she think of our Emperor?"
"That's it!" Yun Wuhen thought of the love letter he had peeked at, and deliberately let it slip: "You will know about it in the future!"
Feng Suiying was intrigued and was about to explore the follow-up, but Yun Wuhen stopped talking.
He was so angry that he wanted to punch someone.
"Yun Wuhen, you whet my appetite and don't speak clearly. Do you think I can't beat you because I'm injured?"
"It's not that I didn't tell you!" Yun Wuhen dodged Feng Suiying's attack, "It's because the love letter written by the Queen to the Emperor was too long!"
"Love letter?" Feng Suiying paused and stopped chasing Yun Wuhen.
Pretending to be curious, he said, "No matter how long it takes, you can always remember a sentence or two, right?"
"Why are you so curious?" Yun Wuhen walked to the wine table, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"There is a general sentence in it, which is that Lin Lixia hopes that the emperor will be a commoner in the next life, and that the emperor will be his husband."
"It was these love words that directly predetermined the emperor's next life, directly calmed all the emperor's anger, and promised to marry only her."
Feng Suiying gave up completely, suppressed the last throbbing in his heart, and picked up the wine glass.
"Why, from your tone, you are dissatisfied with the emperor only marrying the queen?"
Yun Wuhen snorted coldly, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, speaking angrily.
"The emperor is the emperor, but he still has no heirs. The civil and military officials in the dynasty are full of people. Who is not dissatisfied with the fact that the queen is the sole favored one?"
"I don't!" Feng Suiying lowered his eyes, hiding the emotions in his eyes.
He also poured himself a glass of wine.
"The Emperor is in his prime. It doesn't happen now, but it doesn't mean he won't happen in the future."
"Besides, you and I are both half a year older than the Emperor, so don't we both have no heirs?"
Yun Wuhen was speechless.
Feng Suiying poured wine for Yun Wuhen.
"Wuhen, you and I are both people who have received the favor of the Queen, so don't cause trouble for her at this time!"
Yun Wuhen picked up the wine glass, drank it hard, and then put the glass down heavily.
"How dare I cause trouble for the Queen? The Emperor protects her like he is protecting his own eyes, and I am still supporting my family with my salary!"
Feng Suiying wanted to laugh when he heard that Yun Wuhen was dissatisfied but was afraid that the emperor did not dare to express his grievances.
"Wuhen, please be more open-minded. As ministers, we should focus on court affairs and not interfere in the emperor's family affairs!"
"Why is this a family matter?" Yun Wuhen stared at Feng Suiying with wide eyes.
"We followed the Emperor through a narrow escape and finally earned the merit of following the dragon. Naturally, we hope that this merit can be passed on to future generations."
"Feng Suiying, have you ever thought that only when the emperor's heirs ascend the throne can our achievements as dragons be continued?"
Feng Suiying froze for a moment, unable to say anything to refute Yun Wuhen.
He raised his glass of wine and offered it to Yun Wuhen.
"Wait and see, Lin...the Queen is so smart, she must have made her plans long ago."
"That's the only way!" Yun Wuhen said after finishing his drink: "Our emperor is different from the previous emperors of Longlin Kingdom."
"The emperor has been in the army for more than three years. He has been on the battlefield. He has high prestige in the army, acts decisively and courageously, and has a lot of money in his private treasury."
"Nowadays, the civil and military officials in the dynasty have their own opinions on this matter, but they dare not make the matter too serious for fear of offending the emperor!"
Feng Suiying poured Yun Wuhen another glass of wine and deliberately changed the subject.
"Consort Gu has made great contributions to the emperor's marriage abduction. Has he been promoted?"
"Promoted!" Yun Wuhen said: "The emperor promoted Gu Shiming to a capital official, and then asked Lin Lidong to replace Gu Shiming and become the new county magistrate of Zizhu City."
"Lin Lidong is a good person!" Feng Suiying commented objectively: "The one named Lin Zhishan is also very good."
"That's when they met the emperor!" Yun Wuhen couldn't help but feel proud when he mentioned this.
"I gave Lin Lichun some random advice, but to my surprise he actually became a general! I also suddenly became Uncle Guo's master."
"..." Feng Suiying suddenly didn't want to talk to Yun Wuhen anymore, "Wuhen, I'll drink here today, my wound hurts!"

The news of the Zhennan Army's victory reached the capital, and all the civil and military officials in the court cheered.
Ji Shen sat on the dragon chair and showed a satisfied smile.
"My dear friends, Fengming Kingdom has been plotting for more than ten years and will not give up easily."
Hearing the ambition in the emperor's words, Luo Haichang reacted quickly.
"The Emperor is wise and powerful, so let's beat them until they are convinced and bow their heads to the Emperor!"
Ji Shen had a satisfied smile on his lips, and looked at the civil and military officials with joy in his voice.
"My dear friends, what do you think?"
All the civil and military officials in the court looked at each other in shock, secretly cursing Luo Haichang for stealing the limelight again, but they did not dare to show it on their faces.
They shouted in unison: "The Emperor is wise and powerful, so let's beat them until they are convinced and bow their heads to the Emperor!"
Hearing the civil and military responses from the Manchu Dynasty, Ji Shen was very satisfied. He finally had the opportunity to make up for the regrets of his previous life.
"Okay! What I want is the momentum to swallow up mountains and rivers!"
"Now, we, the monarchs and ministers of the Dragon Scale Kingdom are united. I am determined to make the Fengming Kingdom surrender! Pay tribute to us!"
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!" All civil and military officials in the court knelt down and shouted, feeling infected by the Emperor's determination and momentum.

It’s another year when peach blossoms are in full bloom, and it’s Xu Taohua’s 60th birthday.
The Lin Mansion was decorated with lanterns and colorful silks, the fragrance of peach blossoms and festive lanterns complemented each other, and the entire mansion was immersed in a joyful and peaceful atmosphere.
In the courtyard, the peach blossoms in full bloom are like pink clouds, gently swaying in the breeze, and the petals are falling one after another, just like a fairyland.
Guests came in an endless stream to congratulate, and their laughter and blessings came one after another.
The birthday girl Xu Taohua smiled from ear to ear and kept looking at the door.
Seeing Xu Taohua's expectations, Qian Duojin supported the old lady.
"Grandma, someone from the palace has sent word that the emperor and queen will come. They will definitely come!"
"I know!" Xu Taohua arranged her gorgeous new clothes.
"I'm just thinking about how to kneel down later without getting my clothes dirty."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a shout from the door: "Long live!"
Following this shout, all the guests in the hall knelt down and shouted in unison: "Long live!"
Xu Taohua held Qian Duojin's hand, and the two of them slowly knelt down together, for fear of crushing the new clothes sent by their granddaughter.
