Chapter 595 Your Majesty
And the burly figure sitting on the dragon chair is naturally the ruler of the Sun and Moon Dynasty, Emperor Dugu Zhu! His eyes were as sharp as a falcon, and he exuded majesty and domineering power.
"Greetings to Your Majesty."
Dugu Nan looked at the figure on the dragon chair, her beautiful eyes flashed as she joined her hands in salute and said respectfully.
"No courtesy, please sit down."
Dugu Zhu shook his head slightly and waved his hand gently. At this moment, a group of chambermaids moved quickly to arrange exquisite chairs.
Dugu Nan elegantly restrained her gorgeous dress, and then sat down slowly. Her movements were light and graceful, as if every detail had been carefully planned.
Dugu Zhu had a faint smile on his lips and asked casually:
"I heard that you recently went to the border area? How was it there?" His tone was relaxed and natural, as if he was just chatting about home affairs.
Dugu Nan smiled slightly and replied softly: "I just have nothing to do, so I went to the border to relax." Her voice was soft and beautiful, with a kind of casual freedom.
Dugu Zhu picked up the tea cup, took a sip, and continued to smile:
"Since I came to the throne, I have never had the opportunity to visit the frontier. I wonder if the scenery of the frontier is still the same as before?"
There was a trace of curiosity and yearning in his eyes.
Dugu Nan's eyes shone with shrewdness. She paused for a moment, and then answered slowly:
"The scenery on the border is truly breathtaking. The sky is filled with yellow sand, and the sunset is dazzling. The mountains, seas, and peaks are rolling and majestic, in sharp contrast to the delicate style of the Central Plains."
Her descriptions are vivid and poetic, making people feel like they can feel the magnificent scenery of the frontier.
Dugu Nan's words revealed her admiration for the border scenery, as if she had really tasted the charm of that land personally. Her words were sincere and sincere, and Dugu Zhu could not help but be moved by her.
If the female officer who was traveling with her was here, she would know that Dugu Nan's opening her mouth now was pure nonsense. She did not enjoy any scenery along the way, but went straight to the border between the Sun and Moon Dynasty and the Demon Realm without stopping.
He didn't stop at any other place along the way, and the only place he stayed was the rat from the Sin Domain!
Dugu Zhu, who was sitting on the dragon chair, still maintained a faint smile. After Dugu Nan finished speaking, he said with a little emotion:
"Now that you've said that, I'm going to want to take a look."
As he said that, Dugu Zhu looked at Dugu Nan with a smile and asked softly:
"Then is there anything that Nan wants to tell Gu when he comes today?"
Seeing that Dugu Zhu was pretending to be confused, Dugu Nan frowned slightly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said:
"On this trip to the border, I heard some hearsay."
"Oh?" Dugu Zhu put down his teacup and asked with interest, a curious light flashing in his eyes.
Dugu Nan's expression was as calm as usual. After giving Dugu Zhu a faint look, he opened his red lips and said in a calm voice:
"I heard that a large tomb is about to be unveiled in the Demon Realm!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the hall fell silent.
Dugunan continued:
"There are rumors that this mausoleum is the Mausoleum of the Qing Emperor, one of the emperors of the Demon Realm!"
After Dugu Nan finished speaking, Feng Mu looked at Dugu Zhu quietly, waiting for his response.
Dugu Zhu's expression didn't change much, he just frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he slowly said:
"There are rumors about this demon realm every year, and they are never the same every year!"
There was a hint of ridicule in his tone, and he didn't seem to care too much about these rumors.
Dugu Nan took the opportunity to interject:
"I wonder how your Majesty is going to deal with this matter?"
There was a hint of expectation in her eyes, hoping to hear Dugu Zhu's decision.
Dugu Zhu looked at Dugu Nan, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and asked:
"What does Anan mean?"
Dugu Nan smiled slightly and replied:
"Your Majesty has a lot of things to do on a day-to-day basis and cannot act lightly. And this rumor is false and cannot be believed easily."
"It is better to let me go to the border on behalf of His Majesty to find out the situation. This will ensure national security without placing too much burden on Your Majesty."
After she finished speaking, she stood up and bowed her hands to Dugu Zhu, expressing her willingness to take on this task.
There was a deathly silence in the palace, and the atmosphere was so solemn that it was suffocating.
After two full seconds, Dugu Zhu's voice slowly sounded:
"You have just returned from the frontier, and it's been a long journey. There is no need for you to make another trip for this little thing."
He made a final decision in a firm tone and waved his hand to indicate that the matter had been concluded.
"Just leave it to the prince to handle it."
Then, he added, "It happens that the prince is about to reach the age of supervising the country, so let him go and exercise."
After hearing Dugu Zhu's decision, Dugu Nan's expression did not show the slightest emotion, as if he had already expected this result.
She stood up, cupped her hands gently, and then sat back down gracefully.
She was not surprised by the emperor's arrangement.
The two chatted for a few words, and Dugu Nan stood up to say goodbye. Her gorgeous and solemn skirt trailed the ground like a mountain, and gradually disappeared outside the palace.
As her leaving footsteps faded away, the smile on Dugu Zhu's face gradually faded, replaced by a serious look. He turned his head and asked lightly to a dark shadow beside him:
"Do you think she will give up easily?"
As Dugu Zhu finished speaking, the shadow seemed to come back to life, standing there quietly like a ghost.
Obviously, this figure possessed extremely terrifying strength.
The figure was pale and beardless, and looked about forty-five or forty-six years old. When he spoke, his voice was a little gloomy and sharp:
"With the character of the Princess Zhenguo, I'm afraid she won't give up easily."
Dugu Zhu smiled slightly, but didn't say much, but lowered his head and continued to work on the things in his hands. However, the figure at the side slowly asked:
"I don't quite understand."
"Since your majesty already knows that the Princess Zhenguo will not give up, why does he let the prince be responsible for this matter?"
"According to the information obtained by our chess pieces, although the discovery of the tomb is true, the statement about the inheritance of the Green Emperor should be just a rumor."
"Since there is no real inheritance, why not let the Princess Zhenguo handle this matter?"
"Instead, let the prince get involved?"
"This...?"
The figure did not finish the last sentence, but Dugu Zhu understood what he meant. He replied lightly while writing:
"Are you worried that the conflict between the prince and the Princess Zhenguo will be further intensified?"
