The Jedi Counterattack

Chapter 237 - Marrying a Substitute Bride - The Weird National Teacher
If the old emperor wanted to kill Jiumei, why did he wait until Jiumei had been a queen for a few days before killing him?At that time, the old emperor seemed to be dead.The old emperor is dead, so who wants to kill Jiumei?
What happened to the later King Ning who was so indifferent to Jiumei?Completely treat Jiumei as air, and stick to Huabamei when she sees it, it is really puzzling.

But now it seems that King Ning is not a complete scumbag. He has feelings for Jiumei, who took care of him and gave him warmth when his life was at a low point.But why did this relationship last so short?What happened in the middle?

Besides, the old emperor always felt that the old emperor's way of thinking was very weird. Just because Hua Bamei's mother was kind to the emperor, would he want to bet the whole country?Is it too much?It's so weird that the old emperor actually had such a request for his son.The new emperor can only live with Hua Bamei, a queen, and cannot have a harem. Is this a requirement that an emperor of the previous generation should make?

Isn't the previous generation of emperors' requirements for the next generation's emperors all hoping to accept the harem and spread their branches and leaves?

Lan Mi squinted her eyes and thought about it, the more she thought about it, the more she couldn't follow the logic. If Bamei Hua couldn't have children, couldn't she also have other concubines?
Could it be that the old emperor was actually controlled by others?Is that so?This must be investigated carefully.

On the other side, the old emperor was so angry that he almost fainted from King Ning's words. The old emperor kept beating his chest: "You bastard, you want me to kill you, I'm so mad, get out!" , Get out, otherwise, I really can't help but want to kill you."

Then, Prime Minister Hua, Bamei Hua, and King Ning all withdrew from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After a while, the old emperor was helped to the soft couch by an eunuch, and two maids came to wash the old emperor.

Seeing that there should be no useful information to be found tonight, Lan Mi quietly left.

It was already late when Lan Mi returned to Prince Ning's Mansion, she jumped into the inner room directly from the window without disturbing anyone, quickly replaced Ye Xing Ye, washed up briefly and sat on the bed to prepare to practice.

After a while, Qiuyue, the maid outside, yelled in a low voice: "My lord, your empress is already asleep." As if she was afraid of waking Lan Mi up.

Lan Mi got into the bed and covered the quilt in seconds, and just lying down, King Ning was already pushing the door.

After a while, there was the sound of the door opening. Lan Mi closed her eyes and pretended to be asleep. After King Ning came in, he closed the door and sat on the bed.

There was only one small lamp lit in the room, and it was dimly lit.

King Ning stretched out his hand to touch Lan Mi's face, but withdrew his outstretched hand, and then began to talk to himself: "Jiumei, what should I do? Jiumei, let's elope! Let's go to a Live where no one knows us.

Jiumei, I finally understand why you said that my leg is healed and I might kill you. Do you have a premonition?It's not me who wants to kill you, it's the father who wants to kill you, what should I do? "

Lan Mi felt water dripping on her face, presumably it was King Ning's tears, hey, King Ning really loves to cry, but now Lan Mi doesn't hate the tears at all.At least he felt sorry for Jiumei now.

The man I have taken care of for more than a year is not a complete scumbag, so my heart is not so responsive.

Maybe King Ning in the plot also came to Jiumei’s bed to cry sadly, but Jiumei was already asleep at that time, so there is no way to know, now is the most critical moment, Lan Mi dare not change the plot at all, So he pretended to be asleep and remained motionless.

Just dig out things that Jiumei doesn't know about secretly.

King Ning sat in front of the bed for a long time, then walked out desolately, and when the sound of King Ning's footsteps disappeared, Lan Mi opened his eyes.There is nothing wrong with Jiumei's feeling. In fact, King Ning has already fallen in love with Jiumei in the plot.

But later he was forced by his father to change the eighth sister back. He was actually full of guilt for the ninth sister, so he dared not face her.From Jiumei's point of view, it seems that King Ning became indifferent to her after he recovered from his injury.

It felt really bad, like being suddenly abandoned.

Why was the old emperor so eager to let the third child sit in that position?Because the old emperor got a disease, what kind of disease he got, it was not mentioned in the plot, and he died immediately after sending the third child to the throne.It feels more and more complicated. It seems that to investigate everything clearly, I can only do it myself.Not during the day, only quietly in the dead of night.

The next day, King Ning didn't go out. He heard that he stayed in the study and didn't come to see Lan Mi. He probably was afraid of facing Lan Mi.

In the evening, Lan Mi turned off the lights early and told the maid not to disturb her, put on night clothes again and set off.

Lan Mi once again arrived at the old emperor's Hall of Mental Cultivation, hoping to gain something today.

The old emperor sat on a chair and reviewed the memorials by himself, and rubbed the space between his eyebrows after a while, looking very tired.

After a while, a man walked into the Hall of Mental Cultivation. Judging from the plot, this man should be a national teacher. He had very little time to appear on the stage. The man looked very young, dressed in white, tall and straight, in the backlight, Lan Mi looked Not knowing his face, the hero walked up to the emperor and did not kneel down, but bowed his head slightly and saluted.

The emperor put down the memorial in his hand and said: "The national teacher is here."

"Your majesty, your body doesn't allow you to work too hard." The national teacher cupped his hands and spoke in a deep and pleasant voice with magnetism.

"It's okay, I just want to ask the national teacher, how long can I live?" The emperor's tone was extremely sad when he spoke.

"Your Majesty, if you can take the elixir on time and take a lot of rest, you should be able to live for another year." The national teacher said with his head down very respectfully, because the national teacher turned in a different direction, so Lan Mi happened to see clearly The face of the national teacher.

A perfect face, slanted eyebrows, slender phoenix eyes, high nose bridge, thin lips tightly pursed, the skin on his face is as white as jade, a rare handsome man in the world, if King Ning is in the same frame as him, he will immediately fall into love It will be compared, just like the difference between a fairy in the sky and an ordinary person on the ground.

Although the national teacher is extremely handsome, he always gives Lan Mi a weird feeling. Why is that weird aura so similar to that of Bamei?Is it a coincidence, or what?
They are all so beautiful that they have a feeling of fascinating all living beings, but there is a feeling that makes Lan Mi uncomfortable. What is this feeling called?Lan Mi squinted her eyes and thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered the feeling she had when she met the evil cultivator in the Immortal Cultivation Plane.

Could it be that the national teacher and Hua Bamei have practiced some evil techniques?This kind of aura is not something that comes with the person himself, but is formed by practicing a certain method.Obviously this world is just an ordinary world without gods and monsters, so where do the evil techniques come from?
Others may not be able to feel it, but Lan Mi is considered a senior traveler at present, so he can still feel the weirdness.

Lan Mi had a lot of thoughts, maybe the old emperor had already been bewitched by the national teacher, why should Hua Bamei be the queen, it should be the national teacher's idea, and the national teacher and Hua Bamei may have already hooked up. Is that right?
After Hua Bamei becomes the queen, the new emperor will be controlled, and then the whole country will fall into the hands of the national teacher and Hua Bamei.

Looking at the appearance of the national teacher, he has an aura all over his body, but when he walks like a ghost, without a sound, he should be a master of masters.Then, what I really have to deal with is the national teacher and Hua Bamei.

Maybe Hua Bamei is not what she appears on the surface, a weak woman, maybe in fact she also has martial arts, and she is also a master.They have been lurking in Qi State for many years, but they actually want to take the whole country for themselves, is that true?

Originally, Lan Mi thought that King Ning was the protagonist, but now it seems that King Ning may actually be cannon fodder, and in the end, the national teacher did not waste his effort.The real protagonists are actually Guo Shi and Hua Bamei.
