In fact, compared to these, Ren Ruyi was more worried about why the other party dared to be so open about his attitude.

Ren Ruyi looked at Li Huashi and said, "What will you do if Emperor An gets angry?"

Li Huashi shrugged: "Just refuse to admit it, and say that someone sent it to us for auction. With the agreement in hand, can Anguo still fight with us?"

Others might believe this, but Ren Ruyi didn't.

With Emperor An's temperament, it is impossible for him to suffer such a huge loss and do nothing.

Ren Ruyi noticed that Ning Yuanzhou shook his head at her, so Ren Ruyi didn't say anything else.

Li Huashi noticed this scene, chuckled, and her gaze lingered on Yang Ying beside her for a moment.

Yang Ying noticed Li Huashi's gaze. Although she was stunned for a moment, she still gave her a silly smile.

Li Huashi thought for a second and then looked away.

Forget it. Even if he didn't threaten this so-called 'King of Li' with poison, Ning Yuanzhou and the others should be smart and know what to do and what not to do.

If you offend Emperor An, the other party may not do anything wrong, but if you offend Li Huashi, then Li Huashi will definitely be unreasonable.

What's more, it is even less likely that Ning Yuanzhou and the others would cooperate with Emperor An.

. . .

Ning Yuanzhou is indeed the smartest among them.

At least, he had realized that he had deliberately dragged the delegation into the water.

Perhaps he had initially intended to steal the 100,000 taels of gold from the diplomatic corps on a whim, with his eyes set on the Anguo treasury, which then led Emperor An to suspect that it was the diplomatic corps that had done it, and it was not a premeditated plan.

But since Ning Yuanzhou wanted to lure Li Huashi out, and Li Huashi knew that there were Zhuyi Guards monitoring near the Siyi Pavilion, she still chose to break in openly.

Li Huashi decided to start the auction in two days.

They were already tied together.

Regardless of whether the delegation was aware of what Li Huashi had done to the Anguo treasury, in Emperor An's eyes, they were definitely connected behind the scenes.

Ning Yuanzhou and his men had no choice. Either they would be considered by Emperor An as the mastermind behind the theft of the national treasury, or they would be forced to go along with Li Huashi.

So instead of being forced, it’s better to take the initiative.

Ning Yuanzhou asked Yu Shisan to take out the map of Andu and place it in front of Li Huashi.

"I would like to ask, Your Highness, where will your auction be held?"

Li Huashi's gaze stayed on the circled Yong'an Temple on the map for a moment, and she couldn't help laughing.

"In that case, wouldn't two days be too short a time? Do you want me to give you a few days to get familiar with the environment?"

Yu Shisan showed a smile of taking advantage of others and saying, "It would be great if Her Royal Highness the Princess could help us. It would be even better if Her Royal Highness could help us break the mechanism of Yong'an Temple."

Li Huashi was not angry, she just looked at Yu Shisan with amusement:

"You are really rude. I took advantage of the auction to distract Emperor An's anger and attention, so that you can go to Yong'an Temple and rescue the emperor of your Wu country.

Now you have set your sights on me again, how about I send you another group of people to escort you out successfully?"

Yu Shisan: "Hahaha, that would be great."

Li Huashi smiled and said, "You wish."

He raised his hand and clicked on a street on the map.

Li Huashi: "Don't go down this road."

Everyone looked at the location where Li Huashi pointed. Ning Yuanzhou and Ren Ruyi immediately realized that that was the fastest way for Emperor An to send troops.

And this road is very dangerous for Li Huashi.

If Emperor An disregards the treaty between An and Li and insists on taking action against Li Huashi, perhaps Li Huashi will have to be imprisoned in An like Emperor Wu.

Those who understood this frowned.

But Ning Yuanzhou didn't think that Li Huashi was the kind of person who would put herself in danger, unless she did it on purpose.

Thinking of this, Ning Yuanzhou felt confused.

But why did she?

Before the other party could ask the question first, Li Huashi said, "Don't worry about our Li country's affairs. Don't ask. This is a gift for you as compensation for our long-lost friendship and for involving you."

Although this involvement was intentional on Li Huashi's part.

After Li Huashi handed a blueprint of the Yong'an Temple's mechanism to Yu Shisan and the others, she got up and left.

When people in Anguo learned that the auction of Liguo was going to hold an auction in Anguo in the name of opening a branch, and that the auction would include Izumo Juren, which had only been sold once before, they were ecstatic and excited.

It was not until the wealthy businessmen of Anguo and high-ranking officials in the court received the invitations to the auction, and those who knew the situation saw the familiar items on the invitations that were said to be sold at the auction, that the turmoil and fear in everyone's hearts reached its peak.

The Anguo treasury was robbed, and the people of Li were auctioning off the contents of the Anguo treasury in Anguo. . .

Who dares to go there?

Are you trying to kill yourself?

Not to mention that Izumo Chonglian was present at this auction, even if Izumo Chonglian was given as a gift, they would not dare to attend this auction.

Overnight, fewer people took to the streets in Anguo.

Li Huashi looked at the streets which were much more deserted than usual. There were only a few vendors standing around wondering why there were so few people today and why business was so bad. Li Huashi couldn't help laughing.

It doesn't matter if there are fewer people. We can use our own people as ordinary citizens to fill in the gaps and make the place lively.

So the originally deserted streets were soon bustling again with many people coming out from the alleys, some selling vegetables, some strolling around, and some buying things.
