The emperor's husband wants to hug

Chapter 162
Bai Yan looked at Bai Zhanke who was walking towards the dormitory, and then at Nan Ge who was about to go out. He even suspected that he just had an auditory hallucination and heard something that he couldn't believe.

"Nango, stop."

Turning around, Nan Ge looked at Bai Yan, and asked respectfully, "What's your order, Master Hou?"

"I want to ask you, your master just said that Hua Mujin is pregnant. Is this true? It's not that you are deaf, did you hear it wrong?"

Although Nan Ge wondered why Bai Yan would ask such a question, he still replied respectfully, "Yes, the empress is pregnant."

Bai Yan was even more shocked when Nan Ge confirmed what he had heard.

At the same time, an elusive expression appeared on his face.

"Master Hou, do you have anything else to do?"

Nan Ge didn't know why Bai Yan showed a strange expression, and he couldn't ask.

"It's okay, go get busy."

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

In fact, Bai Yan's consideration is very simple. Hua Mujin's pregnancy at this juncture will definitely become Bai Zhanke's weakness. If Hua Mujin falls into the hands of the queen mother, it will be the most difficult thing for them.

And this is also the reason why Bai Zhanke concealed Hua Mujin's pregnancy.

In the sleeping hall, Bai Zhanke sat on the edge of the bed, looked at the sleeping Hua Mujin, and reached out to caress her face.

In order to rush for the past three days, they hardly had any rest. Not only Hua Mujin was tired, but even Bai Zhanke himself was too tired.

But he knew he couldn't lie down.

"Don't you still have something to do? Rest early after you're done, don't get tired."

Just when Bai Zhanke put his hand on Hua Mujin's cheek, Hua Mujin opened her eyes, and she looked at him tenderly, her eyes were full of distress.

"You didn't fall asleep?"

Hua Muqin pursed her lips and smiled, "I slept for a while, but I didn't dare to sleep too deeply, so when you came in, I woke up."

Coming to this other world, Hua Mujin developed a habit.

That is when you sleep, and you will never sleep too deeply like before.

"You go to sleep, I have to deal with things, when you wake up, the imperial doctor will come to check your pulse."

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, as the king of a country, he can have the wind and the rain, but looking at Bai Zhanke, Hua Mujin feels that the emperor is probably the most tiring person, right?

"Well, you go, don't worry about me."

Bai Zhanke lightly touched Hua Mujin's face, said nothing, got up and walked out of the bedroom.

The rush did make Hua Mujin very tired, but at this time, she not only just wanted to sleep, but also wanted to do her best to help Bai Zhanke.

It was late at night, and the entire imperial palace was shrouded in darkness, except for the rustling of branches blown by the breeze, there was no other sound to be heard.

Royal study.

Bai Zhanke sat behind the desk, his face slightly tired.

"During this time, is there any movement from the Queen Mother?"

On the lower left, Bai Yan sat on a chair, took a sip of tea, and then looked at Bai Zhanke.

"There is no movement. I only know that she secretly sent people to sell a lot of things, including the gifts from the late emperor. As for the reason why she did this, I think you should know better than me."

Bai Zhanke nodded, and said: "It should be money to buy the killer. On the way back and forth to the southern country, I met the killer of the Five Elements Palace a few times."

"Five Elements Palace?"

Bai Yan has been away from the palace for a long time, he has heard the name Five Elements Palace before.

But these assassins in the rivers and lakes seem to have never been in contact with people in the court. If the queen mother came to the Five Elements Palace, there must be someone among them.

"It's not unexpected that she will send killers. However, after you left the palace, she sent people several times to try to sneak into the palace, but those people never returned. Also, she once sent people to secretly communicate with the king of Tianzhao Kingdom , I am afraid that this time the two countries will go to war, there will be internal and external troubles."

Amaterasu country is in turmoil at the border, presumably it has reached some consensus with the Queen Mother.

But Bai Yan didn't know whether their consensus would bring disaster to Huanyue Kingdom.

"The Thirteenth Emperor's Uncle, I want to be personally conscripted by the imperial driver."

"what?"

As soon as Bai Zhanke finished speaking, Bai Yan stood up from the chair.

This is not a joke.

"Are you crazy? If you leave the country again, the queen mother will definitely control the palace. Even if I am in charge, are you not afraid that the queen mother will jump over the wall and usurp your throne directly?"

When Bai Zhanke left Huanyue Kingdom to go to the South Kingdom this time, nothing happened because he had already cut off the Queen Mother's left and right arms before leaving, and Bai Lingyu was also guarded in the palace.

But if he chooses to conquest in person again, it is simply giving the queen mother a chance to usurp the throne.

"Uncle Huang, I understand your considerations, but I have to go for the royal conquest."

For the king of a country to march in person, this will inevitably increase the momentum of the generals.

But the reason why Bai Zhanke wanted to fight in person was not for this reason.

Bai Yan looked at Bai Zhanke, frowning deeply.

After a long time, he asked: "Are you deliberately trying to give the Queen Mother a chance to usurp the throne?"

After Bai Yan finished speaking, Bai Zhanke nodded.

"Don't you think this move is too dangerous?"

It is indeed feasible to give the queen mother a chance to deliberately usurp the throne.

However, it is also the most extreme method.

If there is a slight omission, then they will only end up losing everything.

However, even if Bai Yan wanted to persuade him, Bai Zhanke's eyes were firm, and he had already made up his mind. I'm afraid no matter how much he tried to persuade him, he would not listen to him.

"Well, since it's a risky move, you have to be very sure. You can tell me what you need me to do. Also, you'd better make a good plan about Hua Hibiscus's pregnancy, and don't let me Someone took advantage of your loopholes and grabbed your weakness."

"I know."

When Bai Yan mentioned Hua Mujin, Bai Zhanke's eyes moved a little.

Now, I'm afraid his only weakness is Hua Mujin and the child in her belly.

"Okay, you're tired too, go rest first, I haven't had a good rest these days, if there's nothing urgent, it's best not to send someone to call me, let me have a good sleep."

After finishing speaking, Bai Yan walked out of the imperial study room.

But after he left, a figure stepped out from behind the bookshelf.

And that figure was none other than Nangong Qianhua.

"Are you tired from the journey these days? I made someone cook some clear porridge. You can eat some, and then go to rest after eating."

Nangong Qianhua put the food box in her hand on the desk, then opened the food box, and put the porridge in front of Bai Zhanke.

"what's up?"

For Nangong Qianhua, Bai Zhanke is grateful.

But he couldn't accept that she was too kind to him.

Looking at Bai Zhanke, Nangong Qianhua pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "I shouldn't have come to you at this time, but I thought of a way to save your mother and concubine, but I just don't know if the queen mother will agree to it." .”

Hearing Nangong Qianhua said that there is a way to save his mother and concubine, Bai Zhanke sat up straight and asked, "What way?"

"Isn't the prince still being quiet in the palace? These days, the queen mother tried her best to relieve the prince's quietness, but because of the obstruction of the Lord Hou, she failed in the end. If you exchange your mother and concubine for the prince's quietness, I will I think the queen mother will compromise and agree."

The reason why Nangong Qianhua said that was because she knew that the Empress Dowager was the son of Bai Lingyu, and she wanted to win the throne for Bai Lingyu.

Now that Bai Lingyu is being quieted, and the Queen Mother's power is gradually declining, all she can hope for is to wait for Bai Lingyu to lift the quietness and let him deal with Bai Zhanke.

Bai Lingyu is very important to the Queen Mother.

"Now, not yet."

Originally, Nangong Qianhua had already thought about how to get in touch with Bai Lingyu.

But Bai Zhanke's sudden denial made her a little puzzled.

"Why? Isn't now the best time? If the queen mother finds out a way to relieve the prince's quietness, then our only bargaining chip to save your mother and concubine is gone."

What Nangong Qianhua said, Bai Zhanke understood.

In his heart, no one wanted to save his concubine mother more than him.

But now, he couldn't save him.

"Go back if you have nothing to do, I have considered this matter myself."

"Brother Zhan..."

Nangong Qianhua was about to say something again, but seeing Bai Zhanke's eyes narrowed, she finally swallowed her words.

"Then remember to drink the porridge and don't get tired, otherwise no one will be able to save your mother and concubine."

Before leaving, Nangong Qianhua did not forget to remind Bai Zhanke that she really didn't understand why Bai Zhanke rejected her method, which was obviously the only way to save his mother and concubine at present.

On the second day, Hua Mujin slept until the afternoon before waking up.

"Green Bamboo..."

She opened her eyes, and after calling out to Lvzhu, she realized that Lvzhu was injured and hadn't returned to the palace yet.

"Ma'am, are you awake?"

At this time, a voice came over, Hua Mujin looked over, it was a maid from her palace.

"The slave has already prepared the water for washing, and has prepared some light meals according to Commander Nan's order. After the empress washes up, she can eat."

"I know, you go down first."

"Yes."

This court lady was sent by Bai Zhanke when Hua Mujin was just named concubine.

Although the people sent by Bai Zhanke should be credible, but Hua Mujin had to beware that they were bought by others.

After getting up and washing, Hua Mujin changed her clothes and came to the front hall, beside the dining table, was Nan Ge.

"Where is the emperor, are you still busy?"

Last night, Bai Zhanke didn't come to Jinxi Palace to sleep, Hua Mujin guessed that he must have been busy all night.

"Go back to your mother, the master is still above the court at this time."

Still in court?

Hua Mujin was a little surprised, and hurriedly asked: "Shouldn't the morning court be over early? Why are you still going to court?"

Hearing this, Nan Ge hesitated.

Then, he replied: "The border has already started a war, and the master is discussing the border war with the courtiers. Weapons, food and grass are all things that need to be resolved, and the master is ready to personally conquer."

"Puff...cough, cough,..."

As soon as Nan Ge finished speaking, Hua Hibiscus sprayed the porridge out of her mouth.

Because of being choked by the porridge, she coughed several times.

"The royal conquest? You didn't tell me you were kidding me?"
