Chapter 699 Do You Still Want a Wife?
Yun Yurou was unaware of all this and still walked forward unhurriedly.

At the same time, in front of the main entrance of the Yangxin Hall, because Gu Mohan had been staying behind closed doors, the group of important ministers were quarreling with each other, and there was a familiar figure in the crowd.

Yun Heng's expression could not be defined as sad, helpless or nervous. Looking at the chattering ministers around him, he started to murmur in his heart.

Early this morning, Liu Shangshu sent someone to knock on the door of the Major General's Mansion, and before he could fully wake up, he was taken to the palace.

They all knew about Bai Zhi's matter, so he could relax and ask for an explanation from the emperor today.

Although he was worried about the Queen and wanted to take her out of the palace as soon as possible, he really didn't expect that this matter had already become known to everyone.

At this moment, Liu Shangshu blew his beard and stared at the closed door of Yangxin Hall and sighed, "It seems that the emperor is confused after all, and he doesn't even want to see us."

As soon as he finished speaking, many ministers chimed in and said a few words.

"Yes, the emperor is hiding behind closed doors now. He clearly doesn't want to solve this matter. How unbecoming would it be if he continues like this!"

"That's right, Major General Yun is also here today. We can't just let our trip go in vain again, can we?"

Everyone was angry, but there was nothing they could do.

After all, they knew Gu Mohan's character well, and no one wanted to really offend Gu Mohan.

But the matter was so important that they couldn't just watch Gu Mohan make such a big mistake and take the wife of his minister as his own!
It would be such a big joke if word of this got out!
Liu Shangshu sighed, "Forget it, since the emperor doesn't want to talk today, let's leave first and come back tomorrow."

The quarrel has been going on for a long time. I don’t believe that the emperor is still closed behind closed doors.

Liu Shangshu had already spoken, and the others did not intend to stay any longer, so they pulled Yun Heng to prepare to leave.

Yun Heng glanced at the Yangxin Palace, with a complicated and worried look in his eyes.

I don’t know how the Queen is doing now.

Just when the group of people left the Cultivation Heart Hall but a hundred meters away, Yun Yurou and Bi Yun arrived.

Liu Shangshu and Yun Heng walked in front. When they saw Yun Yurou carrying soup, Yun Heng turned away with a cold expression, while Liu Shangshu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Everyone still saluted Yun Yurou according to the rules. Although she had no title, the Empress Dowager gave her the title of Concubine Rou. She was still pregnant with the dragon heir, so she should salute.

Yun Yurou slightly bowed her head in a very dignified and gentle manner, and her every move and smile had the temperament of a lady.

"I am just a person who has not been officially canonized. Sir, please be polite."

"I heard that the emperor was having trouble sleeping and eating during this period, so I stewed some soup myself and thought of sending it to the emperor. I wonder why your lords are leaving in such a hurry?"

Everyone was very satisfied with her charming and caring look, but Yun Heng snorted disdainfully and walked aside.

Ever since he saw Yun Yurou's true face, he really didn't want to take another look at this hypocritical woman.

Liu Shangshu looked at Yun Yurou politely, but his face was a little embarrassed, "The emperor does not want to see me, so I have no choice but to go back and wait."

Yun Yurou raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at the cold-faced Yun Heng. She was not annoyed at all. Instead, she looked at Liu Shangshu and several other ministers with pity. Her words were all calm and steady.

"I am a man of low words, and I have no qualifications to speak in front of the emperor. Moreover, people in the harem are not allowed to interfere in the government affairs. I am afraid that I will not be able to speak for these adults."

"I won't waste your time, my lords. After delivering the tonic soup to the emperor, I have to pay my respects to the concubine." After saying that, she smiled, bid farewell to everyone in a graceful manner, and entered the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.

She won't deliberately fan the flames, she just needs to act nice in front of these people and tell them what she wants them to know.

After Yun Yurou left, Liu Shangshu looked at her back and stroked his beard meaningfully.

"Although this Concubine Rou comes from a lowly background, she can be considered to be sensible and considerate of the overall situation. She is also a considerate and gentle beauty. It is good to be by the Emperor's side."

The others nodded in agreement, feeling that Yun Yurou's performance was very good, dignified and steady, a bit like someone in a high position should.

Only Yun Heng half-squinted his eyes coldly, showing some cruel intentions.

All things gentle and dignified are made for people to see, but in fact they are not a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Suddenly, someone seemed to have caught something important, "Did Concubine Rou just say that she was going to pay her respects to the Concubine?"

"Yes, that means the Dowager Empress has returned to the palace?"

"That's a good thing! If the emperor doesn't listen to our advice, then he will always listen to the concubine's advice, right?"

Liu Shangshu thought about it and felt that going to the concubine was the best choice.

So everyone swarmed with momentum again, shouting to go to see the dowager.

Yun Heng's face froze, and he hurriedly laughed and said, "You go ahead, I won't go."

When he followed these people into the palace today, he just wanted to exert pressure with the officials to take the Queen out, but he did not want to make the matter too big.

But if he went to the dowager, the nature and meaning of the matter would be different. He would not take the risk of putting the empress in dire straits.

But several ministers immediately became unhappy and hurriedly stepped forward to grab Yun Heng, "Major General, you are a key figure. I can't do anything without you!"

"Yes, young general, that Bai Zhi is your wife. How can you behave properly if you don't do it? Do you still want a wife?!"

Yun Heng kept making excuses to refuse, but he just couldn't resist these crazy ministers. In the end, he was dragged directly to Wuku Palace by several people...

The entrance of Wuku Palace.

Liu Shangshu took the lead and howled so loudly that it was heartbreaking.

"The Concubine! I really don't know what to do!"

"Now the emperor is in deep trouble, but I can only watch helplessly, and there is nothing I can do. I am so frightened that I even asked the concubine to come out and take charge of the situation!"

The two little maids at the door couldn't suppress them at all, and they couldn't even try to stop them from making a noise.

The concubine had just returned to the main hall to rest for a while. Now when she heard the chatter at the door, she couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's the noise outside?"

Grandma Wang's face looked a little ugly, "Madam, it's Liu Shangshu and others who are asking to see you. It seems to be saying, Your Majesty, he made a mistake..."
