Chapter 371 Proposal
After finally reaching the palace, Yu Jia fell to his knees with a plop.

There was relief in her tone, "Long live the emperor!"

"I love you!"

Li Guoli couldn't help but joked when he saw Yu Jia's embarrassed look.

"You are only seventeen, at the prime of your life, why are you so embarrassed?"

Yu Jia stood up slowly. After kneeling like this, the wound on the inside of her thigh was about to split open again.

She subconsciously touched the wound and tried hard to smile.

"I have been busy cleaning the courtyard these days, so I am a little tired."

Yu Jia cursed in her heart, she was in such a state yet she was still looking for other excuses.

It doesn’t matter that the old guy’s eyesight is not very good, the imperial physician will definitely report her injuries when he comes back.

She was seriously injured and had been traveling for days, and she still couldn't rest after arriving in the capital.

Anyone would look embarrassed if they were frightened from time to time.

Li Guoli nodded in agreement, "We need to take good care of it."

"Your Majesty, I will return to the Jizhou military camp tomorrow."

"The situation is unstable now, and I am afraid that Beimo may have other ideas."

Yu Jia said respectfully, this was her true thought.

"My dear minister, you really care about the people of Jizhou. I approve!"

Li Guoli was delighted. "Don't worry, I will complete the establishment of the Jizhou military camp soon!"

Yu Jia was overjoyed and she knelt on the ground again in excitement.

"I thank Your Majesty very much. Your Majesty truly cares about the people of the world. I am blessed to be born in the Great Zhou Dynasty in this life."

Li Guoli burst into laughter, "You're the only one who can say it!"

Coming out of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, Yu Jia walked with great vigor.

She felt that the wounds on her body no longer hurt, and she could even go into battle and kill ten or eight Tatars again.

As she followed the eunuch leading the way, she stopped.

How could I forget another important thing?
Seeing her stop, the eunuch in front of her trotted over to Yu Jia's side.

"General, did you forget something? I will fetch it for you!"

The young eunuch spoke in a flattering manner and nodded and bowed so much that Yu Jia turned away.

Now she is a favorite of the emperor, and there is an endless stream of people trying to curry favor with her.

There are both civil officials and military officers.

A few days ago, she asked for house repairs, but all requests were rejected.

Now it seems that welcoming and seeing off guests is also a compulsory course for those in high positions.

"Nothing forgotten."

Yu Jia raised his chin to make himself look more profound.

"This general was born in the Bashu Yu'nan military camp, and I am grateful for the cultivation of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi."

"Although we have gone our separate ways, I still miss the past very much."

The eunuch naturally knew about the past between Yu Jia and the King of Qi, and he echoed the voice.

"The general is a man who knows how to be grateful."

"Hey!"

Yu Jia shook her head, her eyes full of bitterness.

"I heard that Her Royal Highness the Princess is coming back this time, so I want to go and say farewell."

The young eunuch hurriedly led the way.

But when he arrived at the princess's former mansion, the little eunuch stopped.

He was a little embarrassed and scratched his scalp with his hand.

"That, General, I forgot."

"If you want to see our princess, you have to hand in a visiting card in advance!"

Yu Jia expressed his understanding. One was a general of the Great Zhou, and the other was a princess of the Great Zhou who had been married off. If they met like this, they would probably give people a chance to talk about them.

Fortunately, while they were stunned at the door, Li Yuanyuan was escorted out of the door.

It really takes no effort at all!
Yu Jia rushed forward and shouted loudly.

"Your humble servant Lin Erzhu pays respect to Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Li Yuanyuan was so shocked by the three words "Lin Erzhu" that she turned around suddenly and saw Yu Jia talking and laughing.

Suddenly, Li Yuanyuan was furious, especially after seeing Yu Jia's smiling face.

"Lin Erzhu, how dare you come here to see me?" She gritted her teeth. If she hadn't been concerned about her followers, she would have wanted to tear Yu Jia's face apart.

Yu Jia looked up and continued to smile.

"Your Highness, I hope you are well!"

"How are you? You traitor!"

Li Yuanyuan walked slowly towards Yu Jia, and the biting coldness burst towards Yu Jia.

"Lin Erzhu, you are unlucky today. You fell into my hands."

Yu Jia looked innocent, "Princess, are you going to make a private judgment on me?"

"My status as a humble minister is different now than it was in the past."

She straightened her body, ignored the two frightened eunuchs beside her, and continued speaking.

"I am now a general appointed by the emperor himself."

Li Yuanyuan's eyes changed drastically and she stopped moving.

She had forgotten all about it.

However, at this time, she couldn't show her weakness.

"Lin Erzhu, you are so capable that even my father can cover it up for you."

They both knew it well, and Yu Jia was even more proud.

"I can't help it. I just have this ability!"

"You!" Li Yuanyuan pointed at Yu Jia, trembling and unable to speak.

"What does the princess want to say?"

Yu Jia laughed, "Princess, do you want to wait until the King of Qi succeeds before you deal with me?"

This is not something a follower can listen to. The more they know, the faster their heads will fall off.

The eunuch beside him naturally understood this truth, so he quietly retreated to a corner.

Only Yu Jia and Li Yuanyuan were left facing each other.

"Whether His Royal Highness Prince Qi can succeed is one thing, but everyone in the world is the emperor's subject. What confidence do you have in being able to elect Prince Qi to the throne?"

Li Yuanyuan stared at Yu Jia, wishing she could eat his flesh and blood.

Suddenly, she laughed.

"Lin Erzhu, ah Lin Erzhu, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have thought of it."

"Whether my brother can ascend to the basic palace cannot be guaranteed, but there is absolutely no possibility for the crown prince to turn things around!"

Yu Jia waited quietly for Li Yuanyuan's next words.

"He is now a toothless cat. Who can't step on him?"

The more Yu Jia's expression became uglier, the more proud Li Yuanyuan became.

"I am now the queen mother of the Uighurs. Father has always attached great importance to diplomacy. Do you think if I propose this to Father, will he lean towards my brother?"

Yu Jia was a little annoyed, "How could you do this?"

"You are interfering in government affairs!"

"Besides, how can the prince not have a chance to turn things around? He has a large number of staff working for him!"

The more anxious Yu Jia was, the happier Li Yuanyuan was.

"When I was a princess, I could be considered to be interfering in state affairs. But now that I am the mother of the Uighur nation, how can I be considered to be interfering in state affairs?"

"You wouldn't do that, would you?"

Yu Jia asked cautiously.

Li Yuanyuan turned around and left, no longer paying attention to Yu Jia.

Yu Jia only breathed a sigh of relief after Li Yuanyuan walked away.

Li Yuanyuan acts impulsively and might go to the emperor right now.

But she is not a fool. If she delays for too long, she will probably realize that Yu Jia is trying to provoke her.

She looked up at the sky. The clouds were so beautiful today.

It all depends on God’s will!

Li Yuanyuan rushed to find Li Guoli and knelt down.

"Yuan'er, what's wrong with you?"

At this time, the imperial concubine was beside Li Guoli, and she was also shocked when she saw Li Yuanyuan.

After being asked this by Li Guoli, Li Yuanyuan realized that something was wrong.

How could she directly propose to the emperor that his brother be made the crown prince?

But if the prince really gains power, wouldn’t Lin Erzhu be even more proud?
