Chapter 190 Daya's Emergence

King Yan looked at Xiao Yan in shock.

Xiao Yan actually trusts a little girl so much?

Could it be that someone has cast a spell on him?

Daya said calmly, "What the prince has to do now is to prove to the emperor that he is only coming here out of filial piety and that he has no choice but to come."

Xiao Yan nodded and encouraged her to continue with his eyes.

He decided to bring Daya here today on a whim.

I suddenly had a thought in my mind that Daya might be able to help.

Now it seems that it is true.

The King of Yan was thinking, isn’t this nonsense?

He also knows this truth!

However, he has never been a mean person, nor could he say such harsh words. He pretended to listen patiently, but in fact he had begun to doubt whether his trip was a mistake.

"Talking is useless. The emperor has heard too much flattery and no longer believes it, so he has to do it."

"What?" Xiao Yan saw that she was a little hesitant, so he encouraged her, "The prince and I have a good personal relationship. Today, don't treat him as the prince, just as an elder. Say whatever you think, and the prince won't blame you."

"There's a folk saying that if someone is seriously ill, their family can cut off their own flesh to treat the illness. I wonder if Your Highness and Father have ever heard of this?"

Xiao Yan's eyes suddenly lit up.

The King of Yan was stunned for a moment, then said, "Little girl, do you mean that I should cut off my own flesh to serve you?"

"Yes. No one else can do this on your behalf, Your Highness. Regardless of whether it works or not, regardless of whether the Emperor believes it's your true intention, at the very least, your actions will be praised by others. Your reputation will protect you."

Even though the emperor disliked Prince Yan and thought he was scheming, he still had to silence the gossips.

So I can only let this matter go.

"Maybe my father will know my true feelings." Prince Yan said excitedly.

Daya lowered her eyes.

She doesn't think so.

Favoritism is an incurable disease.

The emperor is obsessed with the idea that the prince is the good one, and that the others, even breathing, probably have ulterior motives.

It’s a pity that those who have the emperor’s favor do not cherish it, and those who don’t have it struggle desperately.

Because they lack love so much, they try their best to prove that they are worthy of love. It's sad and lamentable.

She would never put herself in that kind of situation in her life.

She returns as much love as others give her.

Never force what you can't get.

Xiao Yan said, "Since Your Highness also thinks this idea is feasible, then please think carefully about how to proceed. However, I would like to remind Your Highness that the Emperor is first a ruler, and then a father."

"Okay." The King of Yan nodded and said, "Jian, I'm so grateful to have met you today. Otherwise, I would have been so impulsive and asked to see my father directly. You are truly a female Zhuge Liang. It's a pity that you are a girl, otherwise you would have great potential in the future."

"Women are just as capable as men," Xiao Yan said calmly. "Zhao Zhao is excellent at everything she does. I hope that one day, she will have the opportunity to realize her ambitions just like men."

He first informed the King of Yan that when he had the chance to bring up the issue of women taking the imperial examinations to the Emperor in the future, he hoped that the King of Yan would come forward and speak for him.

Xiao Yan was looking forward to that day.

He had never had much contact with women before, so he didn't know how beautiful they were.

If Lu Qinniang were in the army, with her righteousness, enthusiasm, fairness, generosity and supernatural powers, she would surely become a general under his command.

And Daya is no worse than his adviser.

Erya is smart and capable. If she is responsible for the purchase and storage of food and fodder, few people can do anything bad under her nose.

San Ya is a good material for martial arts, and she has appeal. She would be an outstanding pioneer.

Gender is just a label on them and cannot cover up their brilliance.

Confining women to the backyard has drowned so many talented people.

The urgent problem was solved, and King Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. He now had time to reminisce with Xiao Yan.

"I wrote to the Emperor, asking for your help, but it was a shame I couldn't. Later I heard you were bought. I don't know anything more."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The King of Yan did not lie.

This is also the reason why Xiao Yan risked his life to help him.

The King of Yan is a kind person.

He really regarded Xiao Yan as a friend, so when Xiao Yan was in trouble, he was willing to help him.

But the results may not be satisfactory.

Because in the emperor's eyes, he was just a smear of mosquito blood on the wall.

It would be fine if he didn't see it, but now it's being brought right in front of me. It's so disgusting.

So, instead of providing timely help, the attempt to provide timely assistance ended up making the situation worse.

As the two of them chatted, Daya stood beside them and listened quietly. She was calm and gentle, yet her character made people feel strong.

The two attendants beside King Yan couldn't help but look at her a few more times.

——A woman who is so young, yet so intelligent and calm is truly impressive.

For a truly outstanding woman, her attraction to men never starts with "sex".

Sex is the most superficial attraction.

True excellence can make men admire you regardless of gender.

"You mean, now that you're married, your wife has adopted three daughters, so you also have three daughters."

"Um."

"Okay, okay. Xiao Yan, you are blessed, and God has mercy on you. Your wife is also a chivalrous woman with a kind heart. You haven't told me yet, where does she come from?"

The King of Yan thought that he should take note of such a family and make friends with them in the future.

Xiao Yan: "..."

He didn't want to say that she was from the Zhang family, which was disgusting.

"Just an ordinary woman from the market."

"A common woman who can raise a daughter like this is definitely not an ordinary person. Wait, I will go to see the emperor first. After seeing the emperor, I will find time to talk to you."

Upon hearing this, Daya looked up at Xiao Yan and gave a silent reminder.

Xiao Yan gave her a soothing look and said bluntly to the Prince of Yan, "Your Majesty knows that you and I once had a comradeship in the northwest. You are a vassal king, and I am a military commander. We cannot get too close. That would be bad for both of us! Your Majesty's return this time will put him at the center of public attention, so it is best for us not to meet."

Daya was a little surprised.

Xiao Yan's words were too blunt.

Perhaps, the King of Yan is a person who can listen to honest advice?

As expected, the King of Yan said, "Yes, that's what happened. Let's go back and take a look. Xiao Yan, no matter what, I want to thank you and your daughter today. I will remember this kindness."

"Your Highness, your words are too serious. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Just like when they came, Xiao Yan walked away cautiously from Daya to avoid being seen.

After returning, Daya took the initiative to talk to Xiao Yan about what happened today.

She showed a worried look on her face, "Dad, I'm afraid your recovery will be delayed."

Xiao Yan nodded, his eyes showing approval, "I didn't expect you could think of this."

How could I not think of that?
