Xiao Tianyao’s trip to the army has been set. So, even though the emperor has regret inside his heart, and was worried that Xiao Tianyao might take away his power, it’s too late now.
The next day, Xiao Tianyao appeared on the outskirt of the capital with 30,000 soldiers. The Emperor offered him a cup of wine and wished them victory and triumphant return.
Just like before, in front of many people, the emperor showed his great importance to Xiao Tianyao. He personally handed the glass of wine to Xiao Tianyao, then said: “Fourth brother, zhen will wait for your return and offer you another wine for celebration.”
“Huangshang, you will not be disappointed.” Xiao Tianyao took the cup of wine, drank the wine, and smashed the cup to the ground.
When the emperor saw Xiao Tianyao drank all the wine, his face was full of joy. He took another cup of wine and then drink all together with the soldiers.
“We will not disappoint you, Huangshang.” 30,000 soldiers drank the wine and smashed the cup to the ground. The momentum looked so amazing.
The emperor laughed and said a lot more encouragement, then under Xiao Tianyao’s initiation, the soldiers shouted ‘long live the emperor’!
The farewell ceremony was very grand but also very short. After an hour, Xiao Tianyao turned around his horse and lead the 30,000 soldiers to the front line.
However, just when Xiao Tianyao turned around to face his horse, he suddenly raised his arm and coughed. Then, he rides his horse as if nothing happened. Except for himself, his afraid that no other person will notice that his sleeve has a stain.
The wine that the emperor poured, he will never dare to drink it!
The 30,000 soldiers and horses left as the dust kept flying outside the capital. The emperor, who was standing in front of the imperial carriage, watched the 30,000 soldiers marched until their shadow could no longer be seen.

Lin Chujiu didn’t go outside to send off Xiao Tianyao. Well, it’s not that she doesn’t want to, Xiao Tianyao didn’t allow her to do so.
“You don’t need to send benwang off, just stay inside the house and don’t go out.” This was the last sentence Xiao Tianyao said to her before he left. There were no warm feelings.
Xiao Tianyao himself notice that his words sound bad. So, after taking two steps forward, he stopped and turned around to say: “Wait for benwang’s return.”
Lin Chujiu remained standing in the same place and smiled.
If she doesn’t wait, can she go elsewhere aside from Xiao Wangfu?
Will Xiao Tianyao let her leave?

Although Lin Chujiu didn’t go outside to send off Xiao Tianyao, she knew the events outside very clearly. After Xiao Tinyao left the capital, Lin Chujiu ordered Housekeeper Cao to shut Xiao Wangfu’s gate and announce that, now that Xiao Wangye is not in the capital, Xiao Wangfu will not entertain any guest, Xiao Wangfei will not accept any invitation.
This news spread quickly. When the emperor, who just returned to the palace heard of this, he couldn’t help but laugh and said: “Lin Chujiu is smart. She knew that she will not have a good life once Xiao Wangye leaves. Unfortunately, she can only block people for a while, she cannot completely stop them.”
For example, if the people in the palace summoned to see her, can she stop it?
“What Huangshang said is right. Xiao Wangfei is all alone in the capital, she afraid to eat suffering.” When the eunuch saw the emperor was in a good mood, he immediately agreed.
“Suffering?” The emperor sneered, “Looking at her, zhen can’t see her eating suffering, but eating a good turn.” Ever since Lin Chujiu married Xiao Tianyao, she completely changed and only focus on Xiao Tianyao, which made the emperor very dissatisfied.
Lin Chujiu dared to slap his face and choose Xiao Tianyao’s side. Then, she must prepare herself to face the consequences.
The eunuch immediately added: “Huangshang, you mean, Xiao Wangfei is ungrateful? Then, she deserved punishment.”
Thanks for reading, likes, and comments.
Geez… this emperor. He was the one who marry off her to tianyao…
Ah Poor Girl , she did nothing wrong but still can’t take a breather!
Thanks for the chapter.
This emperor is very stupid. He needs Tianyao to win, but poisons him. Even a slow acting poison will affect him.
Sadly, our general did not even hug Chujiu. I was hoping he would sleep next to her so he could have a good sleep before he left. Nice that he wants to write her letters, though.
I agree. The crown prince must have gotten his brains from the Emperor. No wonder they always lose from XTY.
