The Queen Doesn't Want to Die
96. This Case Is Not That Simple
Mo Han came to call Pei Zhang Xi in accordance with the Emperor's order the other night. Back then Pei Zhang Xi and Lu Jing Yu were discussing the matter of the waterwheel together with Mu Lan Feng. Lu Jing Yu explained the workings and results to be achieved by using a waterwheel. Hearing Lu Jing Yu's explanation, the gilmmers danced in Mu Lan Feng's curious-looking eyes.
The image painted by Lu Jing Yu was very clear and easy to understand. Just by looking at it Pei Zhang Xi and Mu Lan Feng could imagine the workings of a tool they had never seen just by looking at the detailed drawings and explanations of Lu Jing Yu. In an instant the two men agreed to make the waterwheel as planned beforehand.
Mu Lan Feng would immediately summon a wood expert to help them work. They are unlikely to make it careless without practice despite detailed explanations. Still must be done by experts so as not to encounter difficulties and errors in the manufacturing process.
Mo Han came when the mature plan had already been reached. Seeing Mo Han Coming, Mu Lan Feng resigned himself. His business in that place no longer exists.
"His Majesty the servant came with orders from the Emperor." Mo Han came and reported.
"We'll talk later." Seeing Mo Han's tense face made Pei Zhang Xi become serious."Yu'er I'll take you to the room first." Pei Zhang Xi turned his head and looked at Lu Jing Yu asking for understanding.
"There is no need to take me, Your Majesty. Your Majesty, continue your work. I will go to the room together with Xiao Bei alone."
"alright. Yu'er thank you."
"Hem." Lu Jing Yu stood up and came out together with Xiao Bei.
Pei Zhang Xi who originally had a gentle look in his eyes suddenly became sinister as he spoke to Mo Han.
"What's wrong?" Pei Zhang Xi's stern voice sounded.
"General Wang was killed by being stabbed in the chest. Several bruises were also found all over his face. Wei Qian Nian's daughter is suspected to be the culprit because General Wang's body was found in her room. At that time General Wang was also visiting the princess' room." Mo Han explained everything clearly.
"Then where is Eastern Chu's daughter now? Did he run away?"
"Yes Your Majesty."
"From General Wang's residence?"
"Right be Your Majesty."
"Being able to escape unnoticed from General Wang's residence has two possibilities. The first is that the guy is great. And the second possibility is that someone else is helping him." Pei Zhang Xi frowned thinking.
"That is why His Majesty was ordered to return immediately to take care of this matter. The Emperor asked for this matter to be investigated. The army under General Wang's command was extremely loyal. Fear if this matter is not handled properly fear it will cause displeasure from the soldiers who can cause rebellion." Mo Han explained.
"I understand. I'll be back after confirming Yu'er's safety here. Princess ChunTimur being punished also had a little bit to do with us. I'm sure by his nature, he won't let go of this grudge so easily."
"Your Majesty." Pei Zhang Xi immediately returned to the room after that. In the room, Lu Jing Yu was also unable to sleep. They had already obtained permission to go to the Heaven lake bungalow to visit. After getting this gift Lu Jing Yu had not seen it yet. If the Emperor turns out to ask Mo Han to deliver a message directly to Pei Zhang Xi means that there is indeed an urgent matter that must be handled directly by her husband.
"You haven't slept?" Pei Zhang Xi said as he entered the room. Lu Jing Yu who was already laying down by turning her back turned around. His eyes looked sleepy but his forehead was wrinkled thinking of many possibilities.
"I can't sleep." Lu Jing Yu pulled her body into half-sitting. Lean on the head of the bed. Pei Zhang Xi sighed. Then he was well on the bed without taking off his outer robe dousing that he was about to leave.
"Your Majesty will leave?" Lu Jing Yu turned his head.
"Why? Is it because the Emperor's father will send a concubine to His Majesty and His Majesty is afraid that I might get in the way and destroy it here?" Asked Lu Jing Yu emotion.
"no Yu'er no. It's for your own good." Pei Zhang Xi's serious face made Lu Jing Yu feel panicked.
"What's going on?"
"General Wang was killed and Eastern Chu's daughter yahh is strongly suspected as her killer escaped and has not been found until now."
"What's? That General Wang?"
"Yes. I'm afraid this matter isn't as simple as it seems. Security at General Wang's residence was tight. It's very hard to break through there. Anyone who enters will not be able to leave without permission. The ability of Princess Eastern Chu was not that great to come out of that residence alone. There must be someone else helping him. That's why we have to be careful. It's good you're here. Our departure to this place is also kept secret. Until the situation is calm and secure, it would be best for you to be here." Pei Zhang Xi explained the situation while gently stroking Lu Jing Yu's head.
"I understand Your Majesty. If this is indeed the best, I will follow the arrangements arranged by His Majesty." Lu Jing Yu lowered her head. She rubbed her stomach affectionately. It is not only her who is in danger. But the child in her womb. So despite his reluctance he had to stay afloat.
"I will accompany you until you sleep. Rest well. Take care of yourself and our baby?"
"Don't talk like that, Your Majesty. Or I will feel His Majesty will be gone long ago. Your Majesty won't leave me for long right?"
"No. Ii'm sorry. I just got carried away. We've never been apart before. Never a day. Right now I suddenly have to leave the two of you here. But how else."
"You understand Your Majesty. I'll take good care of the cloth both here. Your Majesty just calm down. We will be fine when His Majesty comes to pick us up later. So promise to come back soon."
"Thank you Yu'er. I'm so lucky to have a wife like you. I promise to come and get you guys." Pei Zhang Xi kissed Lu Jing Yu's head. His hand also stroked Lu Jing Yu's stomach which was getting bigger.
"Hem."
"It's night. Go to sleep first." Pei Zhang Xi pulled Lu Jing Yu into his arms. Put Lu Jing Yu's head over her arm.
It was not long before Lu Jing Yu had fallen asleep. Pei Zhang Xi slowly moved Lu Jing Yu's head on the pillow before he got off the bed very carefully to minimize the sounds and movements he caused. Pei Zhang Xi leaned over to kiss Lu Jing Yu's forehead long before kissing Lu Jing Yu's stomach before he finally walked out of the room by closing the door quietly.
After Pei Zhang Xi exited the room, Lu Jing Yu slowly opened her eyes as tears fell from her two puffy eyes. This breakup was never expected to be so painful.
