Tuoba Tao arrived outside Tan Yiyu's tent at the second half of the hour. Although the lights were turned off inside, Tuoba Tao felt that if something big happened tonight, Tan Yiyu must be awake.

So without thinking, he walked towards Tan Qiyu's tent without thinking. Zong Ai was so scared that he quickly stepped forward and bent over and blocked his back.

"Your Majesty, you have heard what the guards said just now. The two assassins suddenly jumped out, but before they could come forward to stop them, the two fell to the ground and twitched to death! I knew that Your Majesty was in a hurry to see the goddess, but it would be better for the prophet to say so as not to hurt Your Majesty by accident."

Zong Ai said, looking at Tuoba Tao with his eyes. No matter which dynasty or the king, there is no one who is not afraid of death.

Zong Ai said in his words that Tan Yaoyu could kill people invisibly, so that Tuoba Tao became disgusted with Yaoyu and gave up taking her back to Pingcheng.

But Zong Ai calculated first, but missed the second. When a man was full of joy for a woman, no matter how big the shortcomings and mistakes were ignored, it was simply a blind eye.

Tuoba Tao was blocked by Zong Ai for a while, and just as he was unhappy, he wanted to teach this dog slave a lesson, and saw a candlelight lit up in Qi Yu's tent.

Zhu Rong then walked out of the tent, nodded in Tuoba Tao, then lifted a corner of the curtain and signaled that Tuoba Tao could go in.

Tuoba Tao walked in without thinking. Zong Ai also wanted to follow him, but was frightened by Zhu Rong's eyes and shrank back.

As soon as Tuoba Tao entered, he found two braziers in the tent. Even though the weather had turned warmer, Tan Yaoyu's habit of fearing the cold did not change at all.

I went to see her again. She was wrapped in a brocade quilt, dazed in sleepy eyes, holding half a bowl of warm water in her hand and had not finished drinking it. It was obvious that she had just been woken up.

Tuoba Tao suddenly felt embarrassed and actually disturbed her sleep, so he said with apologies: "I don't know you have settled down."

Tan Yaoyu was still half asleep and half awake, and asked harmlessly: "Your Majesty is here to visit late at night, is there something wrong?"

These words stopped Tuoba Tao. He was stunned for a moment before saying, "Those two assassins..."

"Two assassins?" Tan Yaoyu seemed to be a little awake at this time, but she still asked in confusion: "What assassin?"

Tuoba Tao opened his mouth and replied blankly: "The assassin that Zhurong caught... don't you know?"

Tan Yaoyu took a deep breath, so that he could open his eyes completely, and then called out to the door: "Zhu Rong..."

Zhu Rong heard the sound and entered, half-squatted beside Tan Yiyu's bed, muttering a few words in a low voice. Tan Yiyu nodded to show that he knew.

After Zhu Rong retreated to the door, Tan Yaoyu explained to Tuoba Tao: "When I fall asleep, there will be Taoist protection for my body, and no one should get close to him. The two assassins probably didn't know about this, so they lost their lives."

"The Taoist Dharma protects the body..." Tuoba Tao repeated, feeling that these four words seemed to contain an extremely profound mystery.

Tan Yaoyu nodded and pretended to be relaxed. "It's just a result of cultivation. It's not a big deal, nor will it hurt innocent people. The people I trust will not be hurt by Taoism."

"There is such a magical technique..." Tuoba Tao sighed.

The Northern Wei Dynasty advocated Buddhism, and Tuoba Tao's dynasty also began to promote Taoism after he hired Kou Qianzhi as his national teacher.

But whether it is Buddha or Taoism, whether it is the monks in the temple or Kou Qianzhi, who is a heavenly master, although they have the aura of immortality, none of them can make Tuoba Tao feel the divine power that transcends mortals.

Tuoba Tao believed more than ever that Tan Yaoyu was really the reincarnation of a celestial girl...

"I have something that I have always been confused. Since Your Majesty is here today," Tan Yaoyu interrupted Tuoba Tao's thoughts and asked, "Can I ask one more question?"

Tuoba Tao nodded quickly, "You and I have agreed on a marriage date, so we are one and we are one, so naturally there is nothing we can't ask."

Tan Yaoyu seemed not moved by the sudden confession, but instead said with a hint of suspicion: "I think the agreement between Your Majesty and me is consensual, but why did Your Majesty send people to kill me repeatedly?"

"I don't!" Tuoba Tao widened his glasses, wishing he could open his mouth to defend himself: "Today's assassin is definitely not my instructor! I haven't had time to protect you, so how could I send someone to hurt you?! I promise you that I will find out the person behind this matter and leave it to you for your disposal!"

Tan Yaoyu snorted lightly, as if not satisfied with the promise. She took out a stack of famous brands from the small wooden box beside the bed and handed it to Tuoba Tao: "Today's assassin, I guess His Majesty has already been tested by someone, and he couldn't find any clues. But the last time I ambushed me in Tuyuhun was the real Northern Wei royal army. They not only seriously injured me, but also caused my mother to die tragically at the hands of the Zoroastrian Cult. If it weren't for Your Majesty, who else could mobilize the elite of the royal army?"

Tuoba Tao took over the famous brand in disbelief. Although he was not familiar with the names, the standard was indeed exclusive to Wang Jun. Wang Jun ordered the guard of Pingcheng. This famous brand was particularly important for them to enter and exit the city gate smoothly, so the soldiers of Wang Jun would wear it in close proximity.

"If your Majesty thinks what I say is untrue, you can check these people where they are at this time." Tan Yaoyu's eyes gradually became cold.

Tuoba Tao held the stack of famous brands and felt that it weighed a thousand pounds on his hand. He slowly raised his head and looked straight into Tan Yaoyu's eyes and asked, "If you think it was my doing, why should you marry me? With my understanding of you, if someone has a grudge against you for killing your mother, you will never let him go, let alone commit to him?"

Who would have thought that compared to Qingyuan, what Tuoba Tao cares more about now is how true and false Tan Yaoyu's intention is.

Tan Yaoyu did not avoid Tuoba Tao's questioning eyes and looked straight at him: "Just like Your Majesty knows my character, I also know Your Majesty. You can do it by breaking into the enemy camp, but it is not your style to harm others by using private means."

Tan Yaoyu's eyes seemed to have the power to see through the hearts of the people, and that gaze shot straight into Tuoba Tao's heart. This woman was obviously not a stingy love word, but it made Tuoba Tao feel very palpitations at this moment.

He understands her, and she understands him too. From now on, what else can I ask for when I spend my rest of my life?

"It's not that I have issued an order." Tuoba Tao put the famous brand back in the box and held it in his hand, "I will give you an explanation."

Tan Yaoyu nodded, "I just hope that Your Majesty will remember this. When I want to avenge my deceased mother, don't stop me."

Tuoba Tao did not agree immediately. As an emperor, he was brave but also had power. When he saw the stack of famous brands, his name had already appeared in Tuoba Tao's mind.

With Tan Yiyu's talent, he probably knew the answer, but there was no evidence yet, so he handed over the famous brand to him for disposal.

Feeling Tan Yaoyu’s trust in him, Tuoba Tao felt warm and comfortable. Since the empress dowager passed away, he felt that the palace was like a huge ice cellar, and no one could warm his heart.

However, now it is different. His decreed queen is finally going to be with him! If it weren't for Yan Yu's filial piety period... If it weren't for someone who privately dispatched Wang Jun to harm Yan Yu and her mother...

A few thoughts flashed through Tuoba Tao's mind, and finally he only whispered: "I didn't call myself this palace tonight, which makes people feel much closer..."
