Chapter 368 Knowing There is a Tiger in the Mountain
After listening to their argument, Emperor Wen made a decision in his heart and said calmly: "Everyone else, please go out. I will talk to Yan Li alone."
Prime Minister Ji and General Xuan looked at each other and respectfully left.
The three princes had different expressions and turned to leave in silence.
Mu Cang shook Yan Li's hand, stood up and left without saying anything.
Emperor Wen immediately evacuated the palace people, until only he and Yan Li were left in the Qinzheng Hall, and said calmly: "Li'er, don't you think this matter is very strange?"
This is not the first time he has said the word "strange", but the meaning is different every time he says it.
Yan Li frowned: "The emperor means..."
"I suspect that this is Dugu Qingyun's conspiracy." Emperor Wen held the tea cup, showing the majesty and depth of an emperor at this time, "As for his intention, I am not completely sure yet, but I have already made a guess in my heart. "
Yan Li looked at him deeply, with a hint of deep meaning in her eyes.
"What?" Emperor Wen was puzzled, "Why are you looking at me like this?"
"I think the emperor has been wronged by letting the queen serve as regent and supervise the country all these years." Yan Li smiled lightly, "The emperor doesn't seem to be duller than the queen."
The corners of Emperor Wen's mouth were slightly raised, feeling happy because of her praise: "Do you really think so?"
"Of course." Yan Li nodded, "I never like flattery. Praise must come from the heart. It is the truest thought in my heart."
Emperor Wen was obviously much happy, and Fang 꺳's sullen face was soothed: "So what do you think about this matter?"
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs." Yan Li's voice became colder, "Even if I guess that this may be a conspiracy against me, I have no reason to back down."
Emperor Wen sneered: "Even if the Prince of Yan Kingdom has no brains, don't the envoys around him have no brains? Don't his guards know that Red Medicine Valley is a dangerous place? Since they can agree to let their master pass through a dangerous place, , how could we not detect the danger in advance?”
If there are all such idiots around the prince of a country, I am afraid that the Emperor Yan of the country will not be able to kill people every day. If he can go with the prince on envoys to other countries, which envoy is not an old fox from their own country? Which escort is not carefully selected?
"So it is very abnormal for Prince Dugu to come from Red Yao Valley."
Yan Li nodded: "Yes."
"If the other party knows his identity and does not dare to kill him, then they should know that the two princesses are equally noble and bear important responsibilities - even if they are princesses granted by the official family, they represent the royal family. Come on, the thieves dare to kidnap them, which is a provocation to the Yan Kingdom royal family. Even if they spare Dugu Qingyun's life, no emperor can tolerate this kind of thing. The Jin Kingdom must cooperate with them and find out the mastermind behind the scenes. The water falls out."
Yan Li was silent for a moment: "So the emperor thinks this is a deliberate conspiracy, and the purpose is to target me?"
"Otherwise, who should we target?" Although Emperor Wen smiled, his smile was cold and frightening. "They have obviously calculated that you will not be indifferent to the whereabouts of the two princesses, and the possibility of finding out the truth personally is very high."
"They were wrong about this." Yan Li smiled lightly, "Although I have been speaking out for the women of Jin recently, Princess Yan is not among them. I don't care about their life or death. The reason why I want to I want to find out the truth because it is not easy to investigate, but it involves the diplomatic relations between the two countries and I have to investigate. I don’t want North Korean officials to lose their lives innocently, so I decided to go there myself.”
"Anyway, the results were just as they expected."
Yan Li hummed: "Indeed."
"So here's the question." Emperor Wen tapped his fingers on the desk, his tone full of thought, "How many days has Dugu Qingyun been here in Jin? How much does he know about you? How can I be sure that you will not just sit idly by and do nothing, but will personally To find out the truth?"
"Because the people in the court are communicating with him." Yan Li raised her lips, "It would be great if I decided to go, but if I didn't have this idea, this person would probably find a way to get me to go on my own initiative. In short, what I want is such a result. Simply I did what he wanted.”
After saying this, Yan Li stood up and said, "I know this from my heart. Your Majesty, don't worry. I will be fully prepared."
Knowing clearly that mountains are like tigers, I prefer to travel to tiger mountains.
She had said early on that she had never come to Jin to enjoy the success, or to enjoy the stars and the moon.
Demons and demons can come over as they please, what she wants is a chance.
An opportunity for the demons and monsters to show their true colors.
"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore." Yan Li said calmly, "From now on, I am solely responsible for this matter, and no one else has to interfere."
"Yan Li." Emperor Wen looked at her steadily and suddenly smiled, "How can I be so virtuous as to have such an outstanding daughter like you?"
Yan Li raised her eyebrows slightly: "God arranged this for you."
"It is indeed God's arrangement." Emperor Wen sincerely thanked God, "Can you call me Emperor?"
Yan Li frowned slightly: "Don't you think it's inappropriate to make such a request at this opportunity?"
It seemed as if she couldn't come back after screaming.
Emperor Wen smiled and apologized: "It's my fault. It won't be too late to call you 껩 after your triumph."
"Okay." Yan Li nodded, "I'll go back and prepare first."
Emperor Wen asked: "Do you need me to prepare some more troops and horses for you?"
"No need." Yan Li turned around and walked out, "There are not many soldiers. I don't need a huge team to attract attention."
Saying these words, she had already walked out of Qinzheng Hall.
Mu Canghou waited outside the palace.
The other three princes stood far away. When they saw Yan Li coming out, they came over without hesitation and wanted to say something.
Yan Li raised his hand to stop them from talking: "No need to say anything, I don't need your help in anything."
Yan Chen's expression froze: "..."
Yan Jin pursed his lips and remained silent: "..."
Yan Yun looked surprised: "..."
The three looked at Yan Li in silence, but Yan Li took Mu Cang's hand and left calmly.
"Don't you think Yan Li is becoming more and more arrogant?" Yan Yun frowned, staring at the backs of Yan Li and Mu Cang with a gloomy look, "Although Fenglu is not a remote corner far away from the emperor, she has been there before, and it is impossible for her to know how dangerous the current situation in Fenglu is. She is so confident that she really thinks she is going there to make a contribution?"
"It is because she knows nothing that she is fearless." Yan Chen sneered, "If she really knew how dangerous it was, I'm afraid she wouldn't dare to go even if I asked her to go."
"Don't say that." Yan Jin frowned, worry on his face, "After all, she is our sister, and some grudges are fine. How can you be so sarcastic about such a matter of life and death?"
"Only you are kind-hearted, and we are all evil." Yan Chen turned She looked up at him with a sneer on her face, "It's a pity that she doesn't care about your kindness at all."
Yan Jin lowered his eyes, his eyebrows and eyes were stained with a bit of worry: "Yan Li is still young, and she has suffered so many grievances in Mu State. How can we, as brothers, care so much about her?"
"Suffered so many years of grievances?" Yan Chen disagreed, "Isn't she a princess in Mu State? What grievances can she suffer? In my opinion, she is obviously not satisfied with the princess status of Mu State who cannot hold military power, so she chose to return to Jin State. After all, Jin State has her mother to support her."
Yan Jin heard the hatred in his tone, and frowned more and more: "Second brother, our mother has been kind to us, you shouldn't hold a grudge against her."
Yan Chen was too lazy to listen to his saintly preaching, turned around and left.
