Crown Prince Jun Zechen, the Empress's legitimate son, was young and accomplished. At fifteen, he was honored as Crown Prince, and at seventeen, he led an army to war, achieving swift victory. ...
"The Queen wants to cooperate with me, what does she need me to do?"
Lan Fei raised her head slightly and wiped away her tears hastily, with a hint of anxiety in her red and swollen eyes.
When Su Jingyao saw that she had given in, a relaxed smile suddenly appeared on her face.
His eyes reveal confidence and determination.
"Princess Saihan, now you are asking me to let your family go. Princess Saihan should think about what is worth trading with me."
Su Jingyao folded her hands in front of her, spoke in a calm tone, and her expression was full of majesty.
"Although I have never hurt you, I was the one who saved Ye Shi, and it was Ye Shi who almost killed you. Can you really let go of the past and let me go, and even let my mother and brother go?"
Lan Fei's voice trembled slightly, and her eyes were full of anxiety and suspicion.
She was forced to come and marry because Canglang's lover Erdan was controlled by his brother.
At the beginning, her brother said that as long as she worked hard as a Canglang spy in Junguo, he would take her back after Canglang conquered Junguo, and would personally arrange a marriage between her and Erdan.
The Canglang people do not care as much about whether a woman gets married as the monarch does, and it is even possible for a son to inherit his father's wife.
But now it is obvious that Junguo has already known her intention of coming to Junguo. So is the news that she thought was easily conveyed before true or false?
If Junguo had set a trap for Canglang early on, would Canglang still have a chance of winning?
Lan Fei's hands unconsciously grabbed the grass fluff on the ground, her fingers turned white from the force, and her expression seemed a little dazed.
"I've said, as long as you can give me enough benefits, nothing is impossible."
Su Jingyao leaned forward slightly and moved closer to Lan Fei, still with a smile on her face, but her eyes were as sharp as a knife.
"Besides, isn't this palace alive and well?"
Su Jingyao stood up, gently adjusted her sleeves with both hands, and laughed crisply, as if everything was under her control.
Concubine Lan frowned and lowered her head, her eyes full of thought and her gaze flickering.
Junguo took the initiative to attack Canglang, and must have been sure of victory.
My brother's original plan was to use Yuehui Kingdom to consume Jun Kingdom's military strength, but now Jun Kingdom obviously has sufficient military strength.
The army is so vast and powerful, and the chances of the Canglang winning are as slim as a drop of water in the desert.
The elder brother has killed Erdan, but what about the mother and younger brother?
Even her brother wrote a letter to kill her...
Thinking of this, a sharp light flashed in Lan Fei's eyes, as if to pierce through the anger and pain in her heart.
But...cooperating with the monarch is no different from seeking the skin of a tiger.
She twisted the corners of her clothes unconsciously with her hands, bit her lower lip lightly with her teeth, and felt hesitant.
What should she do?
Su Jingyao saw that Concubine Lan was lost in thought, obviously thinking and struggling, so she did not urge her and just stood there leisurely.
With his hands folded leisurely in front of him, he looked calm and waited with peaceful eyes for her to figure things out.
"I need a guarantee."
Concubine Lan raised her head, her eyes were firm and her tone was unquestionable.
Su Jingyao chuckled, with a hint of contempt in her laughter.
"Princess Lan, you have to know that it is you who is begging me now, not me begging you. Even without you, the kingdom will win. If you surrender to me, perhaps the casualties of the Canglang people will not be so serious."
She raised her chin slightly, her eyes full of majesty.
"Otherwise, swords have no eyes. Your brother is also a warrior of Canglang. He might die on the battlefield someday."
Su Jingyao had read a collection of customs about Canglang before and knew that the terrain of Canglang was dangerous.
Although Jun Zechen should be familiar with this kind of terrain, if they had the topographic map provided by the Canglang Royal Family, they would definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
What's more, Jun Zechen also took her brother with him. If anything happened to her brother, she wouldn't know how to explain to her father and mother.
Since there is a ready-made Canglang Princess in the palace, make full use of her.
"Okay, I don't want to waste any more time talking to you. I want the topographic map of Canglang."
Su Jingyao stared straight at Lan Fei with a serious expression.
Canglang's topographic map?
Concubine Lan did know that she was the princess of Canglang and Erdan was one of the best warriors of Canglang. She had accompanied Erdan to various fortresses of Canglang.
Concubine Lan's face was full of struggle, and she was fighting fiercely in her heart.
She was still struggling with the question of whether she really wanted to commit treason.
Does she really want to be a traitor?
But it was Canglang who abandoned her first...
My brother also killed Erdan...
She was not betraying, she just wanted to save her mother and brother.
Lan Fei's body trembled slightly, and her eyes were sometimes firm and sometimes confused.
-
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Su Jingyao left the dark and damp cell of the Ministry of Punishment.
Her originally straight back seemed to relax at this moment, and there was a barely perceptible sense of relief on her face.
Su Jingyao, who originally wanted to see Ye for the last time, now felt physically and mentally exhausted.
She turned slightly and looked at Xilu beside her.
"Xilu, please deliver the poisoned wine to Ye. I am tired and will go back to rest."
After saying that, she gently raised her hand and rubbed her eyebrows, with fatigue in her eyes.
"This time, we must make sure that Ye drinks this fatal wine."
Su Jingyao's voice was slightly low, and there was a hint of ruthlessness in her eyes.
"Yes, Master, I will definitely do it properly."
Xilu quickly bent down to answer, his face full of respect and caution.
When Jun Zechen was not in the palace, Su Jingyao lived an especially happy life.
