Chapter 31 - I have to ask the queen for help

Since the beginning of the struggle for the right to inherit the throne in the previous dynasty, the situation in Dajing has been very chaotic.

The nobles of the aristocratic families gathered together and formed cliques based on various in-laws and teacher-student relationships. Then, because of the same interests and goals, they supported their favorite princes and surrounded them to fight.

Over the course of several years, not only was the inner dynasty severely weakened and suffering countless losses, but neighboring countries that were eyeing the fertile land of the Central Plains also invaded several times, occupying much of Dajing's territory.

It was not until Yan Chujing came to power that the situation was barely stabilized. He reached an agreement with those aristocratic families who did not want their country to be destroyed and their family to be destroyed, and thus lost their power, and persuaded them to temporarily put aside their hatred, unite with the outside world, and regain their lost territory.

But this superficial harmony only lasted until the world became peaceful.

As soon as Chi Xinian won his last victory, those thoughtful old foxes began to think about decentralizing power again, and they kept arguing with him on various court affairs all day long.

He thought that although it was not the time to formally break up the relationship, it was time to put the matter on the agenda to scare the tigers and scare the monkeys.

But...can the Queen lead the Chi family to stand firmly behind him?

Yan Chujing was very unsure.

Because no matter how much outsiders misunderstood his love for the queen and misunderstood their deep affection, he knew in his heart that he and the queen had no affection at all. She would probably consider it from the Chi family's perspective and not offend him.

Anyone.

"How do I convince her to help? Tsk..." Yan Chujing pressed the corners of his mouth in annoyance and glanced at a delicate food box that had been prepared at hand.

He found out that when the queen was fighting in the southwest, she liked to eat snacks there.

So he specially ordered someone to make a box today and sent it to her when he was done.

Thinking about it, he secretly glanced at his knuckled hands and murmured to himself: "Yesterday I saw that she liked these hands. If... I touch her, will she agree?"

However, such an idea only appeared for a moment and was quickly rejected by him - if that were the case, wouldn't he be very embarrassed?

After all, he is also an emperor, so there is no reason for him to serve the women in the harem? Besides, if I touch her, I don’t know whether I can take back my hand tonight...

Yan Chujing struggled for a moment, and finally retracted his hands into his sleeves.

He thought that this matter might need to be discussed in the long run.

However, time waits for no one, and before he could come up with a suitable solution, Li Fusheng, who was guarding the door, suddenly hurried in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Queen brought a box of cakes to see you. She said... she heard about your hard work.

, specially came to visit you."

"Visiting me? Just her?" Yan Chujing raised his eyebrows in surprise and said without even thinking, "She must have other purposes."

After what happened yesterday, he had a new understanding of his queen.

Not only could this woman see through his disguise, she would also find the right opportunity to use his schemes to achieve her own goals. The only thing that gave him some peace of mind was that her schemes were harmless to him for the time being.

Perhaps, in her heart... she still has some sincerity for him as the emperor?

While Yan Chujing's thoughts were turning slightly, Li Fusheng, who got his nod, also invited Chi Xinian into the hall.

As he said, when Chi Xinian came up, he claimed that he felt sorry for him and had been busy all day, so he came here specifically to see him.
