Tough Wife Rules - C237

The next day, the emperor sent a messenger to inform the messenger that Helian Manqiu had returned. The messenger hurriedly came to deliver a decree that Helian Manqiu was to accompany his sister for a few days in Shengjing Mansion. In less than a month, Helian Manqiu had gone to the capital to give her thanks.

Helian Manqiu accepted the imperial edict to thank him. No matter how much she was unwilling, she had no choice but to accept the imperial edict. Carrying the imperial edict in her hand, she led the messenger into another room.

The envoy had long heard that Helian Manqiu had taken the initiative to live with Gan Danxuan. He had long since heard all the rumors about them even before they had entered the Jing Residence.

Today, he saw with his own eyes that Helian Manqiu had brought him to Gan Zhixuan’s room. The messenger’s eyes swept over Gan Zhixuan’s room, and he meaningfully looked at Helian Manqiu for a moment.

“Uncle Zhenbei, the imperial edict bestowed you with the title of an emissary of the north. Uncle Zhenbei, why have you still not accepted the fiefdom? Doesn’t this mean that you have disregarded His Majesty’s grace and are indebted to the emperor?”

“My lord, it is not that this official dares to go against the imperial edict. Jingbei is a fiefdom that was given to me by the imperial edict, but how many important officials in Jingbei are not willing to give up their trusted aides? Therefore, does the lord think that I can easily subdue Jing Bei just because I’ve gone to Jing Bei and taken the emperor’s imperial edict? ”

The messenger muttered to himself for a long time. He had been alone with Helian Manqiu to spy on him. This secret conversation was indeed extremely secretive. There was a trusted aide personally leading the messenger to guard the place from the outside.

After reading the imperial edict, the Imperial Emissary did not leave, but stayed at Shengjing Palace to supervise the royal doctors and famous doctors to treat Miss Helian as soon as possible so that she could stabilize her condition and head to the capital.

The messenger stayed at the inn and invited Helian Manqiu to have a meal with him several times. He said that he was admiring Zhenbei Bo’s young talent and thus had become a friend who had forgotten the new year. Gan Yuxuan didn’t ask. Not only was the other party an important official in the imperial court, he also had the status of an official in charge. He was also a relative of the royal family, so it wasn’t too difficult for him.

The envoy had a lot of conversations with Helian Manqiu in secret. This envoy had a few intentions, the first being to pass on the emperor’s intentions, and the second being to bring the empress’s intentions.

Helian Manqiu was somewhat at a loss. She could not figure out whose side this Lord Messenger belonged to.

To say that it was the emperor’s men was clearly the first to transmit the Empress’ imperial edict and deliver it to the imperial physician to diagnose and treat her fake sister. Those who said they were the empress had brought along an imperial edict to speak up for the emperor.

With so many imperial doctors and famous doctors trembling and diligently treating and treating her, the fake Miss Helian’s condition had improved by a lot. She ate and slept soundly all day, and right now, she was somewhat fatter.

The messenger had not left because he had been ordered by the emperor to bring the young master and young miss of the Helian Family to the capital for an audience.

Of course, this was not only the emperor’s decree, but also the empress’s, and also the crown prince’s.

When she thought about how the date for entering the capital was getting closer and closer, Helian Manqiu’s face became full of complaints and her delicate eyebrows often became twisted into a fried dough twist. After entering the capital, how could she not have seen the matter of the Shengjing Hall? However, because of the matter of the Prefecture Overseer’s son teasing her, the capital was bustling with activity.

The Prefecture Overseer of Shengjing City had caused a huge conflict with the Prefecture Overseer because of his son. Of course, many people had secretly instigated him to submit the impeachment of the Prefecture Overseer as a criminal act.

The people were seething with resentment. Helian Manqiu’s words at the street had caused this matter to quickly spread at a faster rate than the plague, blossoming everywhere in Shengjing Palace. The plebeians and officials flew like snowflakes to the general’s mansion.

After more than ten days had passed, the number of people who had filed complaints and petitions gradually dwindled. There was a mountain of people who had filed an impeachment complaint against the family of Prefecture Overseer.

Gan Zhixuan couldn’t handle the case of the Prefecture Overseer privately. Firstly, the Prefecture Overseer was appointed by the Emperor himself, and secondly, the important officials within the territory were appointed and removed, and the authority to interrogate was still in the hands of the Emperor.

This was also one of the methods the emperor used to control the authority of the feudal lords, preventing them from gradually growing bigger and further away from the control of the imperial government.

As for those with low positions in the feudal fiefdom, the feudal nobles had the power to punish or even execute them. However, officials with high positions and status did not have the right to be executed directly by the feudal nobles and could be handed over to the imperial government.

Any official of the fifth rank or above in the feudal fiefdom who committed any crime or crime shall be escorted to the capital or sent by the Imperial Court to be examined. The nobles of the feudal fiefdom shall not be dealt with in private.

Any matter below the level of sixth rank official in the feudal fiefdom shall be dealt with by the head of the feudal fiefdom himself, and the result shall be reported to the imperial government afterwards.

Any official belonging to the fourth rank or above of the Great Hengkong Empire would be appointed or removed by the imperial government.

Officials at the fifth rank or below were either appointed by the imperial government, recommended by the feudal lords, or even appointed directly.

This was in order to limit the authority of the feudal lords and place too many of their trusted aides within the feudal fiefdom. In the end, these fiefs were removed from the control of the imperial government and became a small kingdom controlled by the nobles.

The Great Hengkong Empire had lasted for hundreds of years now, and was in a state of decay. Outside of it, there were foreign races that were restless, constantly pressing on and harassing the other countries.

The internal fiefdom was torn into pieces, causing the Great Hengkong Empire to be destroyed and decayed. The imperial family was weak, the princes contended for power, and the royal family was corrupt. One by one, the royal family did not worry about dividing the country, and was loyal to the king. One by one, they used their royal status to do evil deeds, and they were extremely corrupt and extravagant.

Most of the nobles who owned the lands belonged to the royal family. These people clearly knew that it was impossible for them to get the throne, so they placed all their hopes on the lands.

Many of the royal family’s nobles were doing well in feudal fiefdom, as if they were the emperors of the feudal fiefdom.

There were only a few ministers who were willing to give up their military exploits and achievements to win titles and titles with their lives and blood. The royal family loved and hated people like Gan Gongxuan.

He had no choice but to use love, but he had to rely on giving Xuan Energy to guard the northern border, protecting the peace of the Great Hengkong Empire, and protecting those decadent royals and nobles. He had to continue acting alarmingly.

Hate, fear, suspicion, especially for a person like Gan Gongxuan, whose power was gradually growing stronger and holding the military power. He was the barrier that protected the northern side of the Great Hengkong, and was also a huge threat to the Great Hengkong Empire. As the military strength and power increased, the northern border was gradually losing control of the imperial government. This made the emperor feel powerless.

If it weren’t for the fact that the north had no one who was willing to give up their lives, if it wasn’t for the fact that the north had an army that could cause a huge ruckus at any time, the emperor would not have tolerated it until today.

When the emperor of the Great Hengkong Empire wanted to reclaim all the authority he had given to the Emperor, it was a pity that time was of the essence. After accumulating all the power over the years, it was not something that could be redeemed with his scheming mind.

Twenty days later, under the urging of an envoy, the capital once again made a decree, summoning the Helian siblings to the capital for an audience. It ordered Helian Qingyu to set off immediately for the capital without the slightest delay.

Under the decree, Helian Manqiu had to prepare to set off.

The room was silent. There was only light in the room. Gongxuan leaned against the headboard and stared at the other bed. Helian Manqiu’s back was facing him. She was looking at him without blinking.

When he felt the gaze of that Xuan Wuji, Helian Manqiu pretended that she didn’t feel it, and silently faced the wall with her eyes closed. She was waiting to see how Gan Jianxuan would react to her feelings.

After twenty days of being together, they were inseparable from each other. They ate together, reviewed military secrets, and studied the situation in the future …

In these short twenty days, Gan Zhixuan had shown her a lot of top secret information, most of it about the capital, about the Imperial Family and even about the imperial harem. Helian Manqiu understood that the reason why Chu Xinghan had told her so much, and even unhesitatingly told her many top secret methods, was because he wanted her to prepare for a rainy day, to be prepared in advance, and to familiarize herself with the matters of the capital and those people of the capital.

“Ah Man, have you remembered everything?”

Gan Yuxuan suddenly stood up and walked to the side of Helian Manqiu’s bed. He bent over with both of his arms to support Helian Manqiu’s body. He lowered his head to look at her and asked.

How many surprises would she give him if he could never forget her eyes and ears?

“Mm, I’ve already remembered. It doesn’t matter if I forget. You will naturally arrange for people who are familiar with all of this to be by my side.”

“You want me to have someone by your side?”

Helian Manqiu turned her head and looked at Gan Shixuan with suspicion. With a smile that was not a smile, she asked, “You couldn’t possibly abandon me and leave me alone in the capital, right?”

“I was just thinking of doing so!”

After Gan Yuxuan said this, he suddenly turned around and pulled away the thin blanket covering Helian Manqiu and laid down beside her. He extended his arm to embrace Helian Manqiu and pulled her into his embrace.

“I offer my blessings to you …”

A soft chuckle, and a warm, numb breath entered Gan Yuxuan’s ears.

“Little girl, if you dare to continue messing around, I’ll deal with you tonight!”

“Just do it!”

For the past twenty days, she had often run to Gan Jianxuan’s bed in the middle of the night and quietly slipped into his embrace. She thought that she had done it secretly enough, but how could she not know?

Every time she got up from the bed, Gai Min knew. He just pretended that he didn’t know and let her crawl into his bed, into his embrace.

Tonight was the first time Jia Yue Xuan had taken the initiative to come to her bed and embrace her.

There were still three nights. Adding to the fact that tonight was only three nights, she was about to leave the northern border, leave Shengjing Palace, and travel a thousand miles to the capital!

Was he moved?

Did he not want to part with her?

As she watched Gan Yuxuan pull her into his arms, there was not even the slightest gap between the two of them. She suddenly wanted to test this man’s tolerance level. His self-control had reached a terrifying level.
