Chapter 4487: 5.0239 One More Update

His Majesty, who Ying had speculated was troubled by state affairs, was currently alone, chuckling foolishly and lost in thought.

How amusing...

Mo Lian must be absolutely fuming, smoke pouring from his seven orifices, when he sees my message, hahahahaha! Serve him right, serve him right, for shamelessly snatching Qiao Qiao, hmph.

His Qiao had just sent him a message, saying she found an excellent secret realm, the abode of the old man Tianjizi. The secret realm was filled with hidden weapons, big and small, all kinds, arranged dazzlingly. It would definitely suit his taste.

Tianjizi, such a master of hidden weapons... if there was an opportunity, how could he not go and pay respects?

Shao Yi couldn't hold back anymore. He urged his horse forward, cleared his throat softly, and quietly called out, "Your Majesty?"

Where did His Majesty look like he was worried about state affairs? He was clearly just happily daydreaming! That Ying, not only does he have a foul temper, but now his eyesight isn't so good either. His Majesty's joyful expression, in Ying's eyes, somehow became one of deep worry. How inexplicable.

Duan Yue snapped back to attention and casually glanced at Shao Yi. "I hear you and Wuyi have been getting along quite well lately?"

Who told you that?!

Shao Yi looked utterly speechless, glanced at his monarch, and shook his head. "There is no such thing."

Duan Yue reached out and patted his shoulder. "No need to be embarrassed. I've heard all about it from them."

Shao Yi: ...

Why do I have a bad feeling about this?

"I heard that when you pretended to be a male consort in front of Wuyi, you... you two did something something?" Duan Yue watched him leisurely, nodding. "Don't worry, I am an open-minded monarch. I won't trouble you too much normally, and I certainly won't hinder you two."

Shao Yi's eyes widened: What "something something"??? Your Majesty, please explain it clearly to my face!

"Speaking of which, we're almost at the capital. Are you really missing him? It was my oversight that Wuyi sent Miss Wu back to the city ahead of us. I should have let you go back with Wuyi."

"No, Your Majesty..." Shao Yi felt as if a ball of air was stuck in his throat. He desperately wanted to spit in the young monarch's face: What do you mean? What do you mean?! Who misses that deadpan face?!

Duan Yue glanced at his handsome subordinate, a regretful expression on his face. "Originally, I was thinking of bestowing a few beauties upon you as compensation, but it seems inappropriate now."

"I didn't expect you two to turn a fake act into a real one. I'm very open-minded, don't worry! I won't stand in your way." Duan Yue blinked, dropped these words, and then saw his subordinate's expression turn from pale to red, not looking happy at all. He asked in confusion, "What's wrong with you?"

"Your Majesty, your subordinate wishes to know who has been gossiping so much in front of you, spreading rumors!" Shao Yi gritted his teeth, demanding almost word for word.

"Your leader, Ye!" Duan Yue, realizing belatedly, lightly coughed and asked, "Could there be another hidden story?"

"Isn't it that Wuyi pretended to be Rong Li, and you pretended to be his male consort, and you two..."

Duan Yue hadn't even finished speaking when he saw Shao Yi turn his horse around and gallop towards Ying.

"What's wrong with him?" Duan Yue looked bewildered.

Little Kezi said timidly, "It feels like he's going to kill someone, Your Majesty."

Duan Yue thought for a moment. "So, don't talk nonsense on a daily basis! This Ye fellow, truly..."

How can he just make things up out of thin air!

"Your Majesty, the King of Dongshan's entourage has come to welcome you."

"Good," Duan Yue nodded and urged his horse forward. "Tell the King of Dongshan to come over; I have something to say to him."
