♂?，，

  Xiao Huwei and others were very aware of the situation, not saying a word, standing there with their eyes on the ceiling, as if nothing had happened around them. Chen Yuan, Yelü Lüjing, Yelü Shubao, and Li Yuankui all remained silent for a moment.

  After a moment, Ye Lü Shuobo burst out laughing: "Haha, I thought it was Hong Ji in there, but it's actually the princess in this room having tea with Chen Shi Mei. How embarrassing! But Princess, considering your current status, doesn't it seem a bit inappropriate for you to be here?"

  Chen Yuanzheng wanted to say something, but saw that Yelü Lü's face had turned somewhat pale, and her eyes actually shied away from Li Yuanchao's! This made Chen even more shocked! He couldn't help feeling regretful in his heart, it was all because of himself, having fewer secret trysts with this lass.

  If only she understood a bit more, she shouldn't admit it even if the two people in the room were just hugging and embracing, let alone being caught naked on the bed! In this regard, the 14th and 15th houses of the Pang family did very well.

  Even if Yelü Lüjing is acting abnormally, I must act normally: "Shu Bao, young master, don't talk nonsense. I'm just here with the prince and princess to take a stroll, have a cup of tea."

  Yelü Shu Bao sneered and didn't respond, but looked at Li Yuanhao with a very playful gaze.

  Li Yuanhao had by now shaken off the shock and his face was as calm as still water, but nobody knew what he was thinking in his heart.

  Looking into Yelü Shuobao's eyes, Li Yuanhao smiled slightly and said: "Princess, if you have anything that's troubling you, can you tell me about it?"

  The tone was extremely calm, as if there was no anger at all. Chen Yuan was secretly shocked in his heart, not to mention in the Song Dynasty, even in the 21st century, whoever saw their wife unhappy and going out for tea with other men would be furious.

  Li Yuanhao didn't react at all, this is simply a ninja turtle!

  Yelü Lüjie's tone was somewhat stiff: "No, nothing."

  Li Yuanhao smiled slightly: "In that case, please return earlier, Princess. In three days, I will propose to the Emperor. This is a place where dragons and snakes are mixed together, and with your identity, it's not suitable for you to stay here for long."

  Yelü Lü was very embarrassed by what he said, and just when she didn't know what to say, Yelü Hongji appeared in a timely manner: "Yelü Shubao! What brings you here?"

  He entered the door and saw Yelü Chounu surrounded by a team of soldiers in the room where they had just drunk tea, suddenly becoming very nervous, pushing through the crowd to squeeze in front of Yelü Chounu, putting a horse made of dough in Yelü Chounu's hand: "Sister, I bought you a big horse."

  He finished speaking and immediately turned around to look at Yelü Chubai: "You came pretty quickly, I just went down to buy some noodles, and you actually fought your way to the door! Let me tell you, last time it was my doing, and had nothing to do with anyone else. If you want revenge, come after me!"

  Yelü Shuobao really didn't dare to make a scene with Yelü Hongji at this time, and was made very embarrassed by this sudden scolding, feeling that his face had been thoroughly trampled.

  Li Yuanhao said, "The prince misunderstood. I and Shu Bao came here not to disturb your gathering, but to investigate some matters. Shu Bao, let's go now."

  "Alright, let's get down to business."

  After finishing speaking, he limped away with that leg of his which was still a bit lame, leading a team of soldiers.

  Li Yuanhao was actually extremely angry in his heart. Although he said that his marriage to Yelü Lüjie was just a political transaction, he was the Great King of Western Xia! To say that he wasn't angry earlier would be a lie; Li Yuanhao's heart had exploded with rage at that moment, and he felt that his masculine dignity had been greatly humiliated.

  He really can't accept that the future queen is alone in a room with someone else. However, he understands even more clearly that if this marriage doesn't succeed, it will be extremely disadvantageous to his plan for national construction. Having already made up his mind, he decides to endure it here first and wait until later when he returns to Dangxiang, he'll have his own way of dealing with her!

  Yelü Lüjing was so flustered that she forgot about her elopement plan. Chen Yuan immediately said, "Your Highness, the prince, I think it's best if I send you back first. Li Yuankui at least said one thing right - this place is full of hidden dangers and it's not suitable for us to stay here for long. Moreover, with Yelü Shubao causing such a commotion just now, our identities can no longer be concealed. If we stay any longer, I'm afraid there will really be trouble."

  Yelü Hongji looked at Yelü Lüjing: "Sister, let's go back. We can come out again another day."

  Yelü Lüjing gave Chen Yuan a look, and the gaze clearly told Chen Yuan that he should make time to visit her in the imperial palace over the next few days.

  Chen Yuan smiled slightly and nodded in understanding, then followed a group of guards as they escorted them back to the palace.

  Just as I walked out of the tea house door, I saw that there were soldiers all over the street, searching from house to house for something.

  It must be that Yelü Renxian was looking for Xiao Huanqiu, which caused such a big commotion. Yelü Hongji and Yelü Lüzhen didn't know the inside story and were very puzzled. The streets had just been calm and peaceful, so why did they suddenly change?

  It was Chen Yuan who stirred up this commotion, but when the waves really rose high, when these northern courtyard soldiers brazenly broke into house after house to search, Chen Yuan still felt a little tense. Although Xiao Congqiu was hidden very secretly, he couldn't help but feel some worry in his heart, could he really avoid this wave?

  Things are really not going as planned! First, he didn't expect Ye Ruzhen to search so openly and secondly, he didn't expect to run into Li Yuanhao in that situation.

  Li Yuanhao endured just now, but Chen Yuan's heart understood that if he really treated Li Yuanhao as a ninja turtle, he would die very miserably! This opponent is extremely formidable, even more troublesome than Yelü Renshi. In Chen Yuan's plan, it was to deal with Yelü Renshi first before confronting Li Yuanhao.

  At that time, he was on the court of Liao State to gain more power and had more capital to deal with Li Yuanying. But now, this person who is more terrible than Yelü Renshi may have jumped out ahead of schedule due to his own anger. Once he joins hands with Yelü Renshi, things will become very troublesome!

  What was most unexpected to Chen Yuan was that Xiao Zuo actually came to find him in the morning as well. What kind of variable would this woman's participation bring to the entire struggle? He really couldn't guess now.

  Chen Yuan only faintly sensed that things had already gotten out of his control, and the wave he stirred up was much bigger than he had imagined! And more ferocious.

  After returning to the mansion, Chen Yuan felt that his mind was extremely confused. First of all, he had to think about what measures Li Yuanhao would take against him. As the King of Dangxiang, this face was definitely not something that could be lost! Chen Yuan never thought that Li Yuanhao would swallow this breath!

  It's also too coincidental, why did I run into him there? Just when I was thinking of not using Yelü Lüjie to attack Li Yuanku again, such a thing happened, not only did it catch Chen Yuan off guard, but also made Yelü Lüjie's future days quite difficult.

  Also, there is Xiao Ji's stance. What Xiao Ji wants to do is to seek the greatest benefit for his son, which is beyond doubt, but from which side does she want to take action?

  Just now she didn't give herself a little hint, if she also wants to start from the North Courtyard, that's fine. But if she goes against her own thoughts, this woman will become her biggest obstacle.

  Chen Yuan let out a long sigh, and behind him, Yelü Biri asked on horseback: "Lord Chen, is there something troubling you? I can go back to ask the Ninth Prince for help."

  Chen Yuan smiled slightly and said again: "It's okay, things are not too bad yet."

  The greatest effect of this sentence is to let Chen Yuan find a reason to comfort himself. As long as he's still alive, everything else is just trouble.

  "By the way, Bi Ru, I really need to go back once. Do you know that crazy painter we met in the prison cell that day?" No matter how much trouble it would cause, Chen Yuan had already thought it through clearly in his mind. For someone like Zhang Kuangzheng, he couldn't make a big fuss about rescuing him formally, or else the Liao people would notice his value. The classic trick of exchanging five sheepskins for a hundred-mile trek could be used on Zhang Kuangzheng's body.

  Yelü Xiezhen smiled and said, "Magistrate Chen has asked the right person. That guy was caught by me personally. When we found him, we searched his room and found many maps, including those of our Liao State borders, which were drawn in great detail."

  Chen Yuan casually asked with a pretentious air of indifference: "Oh? So he's a Song Dynasty exterminator?"

  Yelü shook his head: "It's still uncertain, because he drew only mountains and rivers, without any military facilities marked, and the map includes not only Liao but also Tangut, Liao Dong, and even Mongolia in the north. So, whether he is a spy or just someone who likes to draw maps, we can't be sure, and can only detain him for now."

  Chen Yuan was secretly delighted: "When I was in prison, I saw a picture he drew and had some doubts that I wanted to ask him."

  Yelü Biri said: "Then I'll accompany Lord Chen on another trip."

  Chen Yuan shook his head: "I'm not convenient to go recently, I'd like to ask you to go back and tell the people of Fan Yan Ru Ru that things are a bit troublesome, I'm busy dealing with it. By the way, take a look at whether you can bring that painter over, of course, if it's not convenient, never mind, it's not a big deal."

  Yelü Bixiu smiled slightly: "There's nothing inconvenient about it, he's not a repeat offender. As long as he doesn't leave Yanjing for the next two years, once the border situation stabilizes, we'll let him go too. Lord Chen, please return home and wait for a moment, I'll have him brought over immediately."

  Chen Yuan was overjoyed in his heart, but on the surface he pretended to be somewhat hesitant: "Let's do it tomorrow instead, I'm a bit tired today and you must be too."

  "Never mind, the matter of the female Zhen must be settled quickly. Yelü Renshi has already started looking for someone and the court is about to go to war. We have to work hard and seize the time."

  Yelü Biguo nodded: "Don't worry, Lord Chen, I'll be right there."

  After Yelü Bori left, Pang Xi and others immediately surrounded him. Wang Lun said with a hint of blame: "Shi Mei, why did you bring such a person with you? It's very inconvenient for us to talk about something."

  Chen Yuan let out a bitter laugh: "Do you think I want to? If I don't bring him along, Yelü Zhongyuan will definitely suspect us. Right now, relying on just the few of us, we're not even a match for Yelü Renxian. If we don't cooperate with Yelü Zhongyuan, it's not just that we won't be able to do things smoothly, but whether or not we can make it back alive is also a problem! By the way, I saw Yelü Shubao leading people in searching the streets today, how are things here?"
