Chapter 238: Want to Make Her a Concubine
Seeing this scene, sparks flashed in Deng Youning's eyes.
Deng Yan'an also bit his back teeth hard.
Even Han Xian couldn't control himself. He stood up, ready to rush forward to save people at any time.
The first group of people were poisoned to death, so Emperor Nan Xin replaced them with a second group.
They captured all the disciples of Wanshe Valley, about forty or fifty people in total.
When the second group of people were about to be fed poison, Deng Youning couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to go over to save them.
Deng Yan'an held her wrist tightly to prevent her from moving.
“That’s enough!”
"Emperor Nanxin, since you have already ceded Liangzhou, where the Ten Thousand Snake Valley is located, to me, Dongji, then my Princess Dongji's founding of a sect on her own land should not be a problem for Nanxin, right?"
"Besides, since they are disciples of the sect founded by my Dongji County Lord, they are naturally my Dongji people."
"Your Majesty casually sent people to arrest them and brought them here. I really need to ask Your Majesty what your intention is."
His face was gloomy and anger spread across it, as if a storm was about to come.
Every word and sentence is full of thorns.
After these words were said, the officials and attendants on both the Nanxin and Dongji sides were almost on the verge of a fight.
Emperor Nan Xin was not in a hurry to speak.
"Emissary from Dongji, you are too presumptuous. How dare you repeatedly speak to our Emperor Nanxin in this manner?"
An aggressive old minister stepped forward and pointed at Deng Yan'an's nose and questioned him.
"Your Majesty, you have a good son, His Royal Highness Prince Yi. He took the Queen Mother, the Princess, and the Princess hostage in my Dongji. He brought nearly a thousand private soldiers and fought with the Princess Zhenguo for a whole night, causing severe injuries to the Princess."
"And your good son, His Royal Highness Si Wang, ordered the Blood Moon Cult Saint Xi Tong to kill twelve of my people in my Dongji Luoyan City."
"You said that the disciples of the Ten Thousand Snake Valley wanted to harm you, Nan Xin. May I ask Your Majesty, Nan Xin bullied my Dongji so much. Do you think that there is no one in Dongji?"
Deng Yan'an's eyes were as cold as ice as he looked straight at the other party and retorted in a low voice.
As he spoke, he exchanged glances with Deng Youning, and the two of them flew onto the stage together to rescue the people from Wanshe Valley.
A flying kick sent a Nanxin soldier flying.
Seeing this, Han Xian also flew onto the stage to help the brother and sister rescue these people.
All the Nanxin soldiers present drew their swords at them.
"Your Majesty Nan Xin, what I just said is not a lie. If you don't believe me, you can just call the two princes to confront us."
"Since they can allow the Blood Moon Cult and their private soldiers to act so brazenly in my Eastern Extreme, what is wrong with the Ten Thousand Snake Valley of the Zhenguo County Lord?"
"Or should we, according to your majesty's idea, arrest and execute all the Nanxin people in Dongji?"
Although he was in the Nanxin Palace and had few people around him, Deng Yan'an's fearless demeanor made many Nanxin people admire him.
He and Deng Youning are both like this, they will never bow or give in to anything.
Even if the power is unequal, it is necessary to appear to be evenly matched.
“Heh~”
Deng Yan'an said so much, but Emperor Nan Xin just chuckled.
In his opinion, it was just like a puppy barking helplessly in front of him.
"Emperor Nanxin, I will not bother with you today for kidnapping my Dongji Wanshe Valley disciples."
"We, the Dongji envoys, have already drunk the wine at the welcoming banquet. Your Highness the Prince Si of Nanxin has also sent it back to you. We will set off for home early tomorrow morning."
"Thank you for the hospitality, Your Majesty!"
He told Emperor Nanxin his itinerary and bowed to him before leaving.
Deng Youning and other members of the delegation followed Deng Yan'an and saluted Emperor Nan Xin again.
Everyone brought along the Wanshe Valley disciples they could rescue and walked down the dancing stage, but the long swords of the Nanxin soldiers were still pointed at everyone.
It was obvious that without the order from Emperor Nanxin, the soldiers would not let them go and they could not get out.
Deng Youning could no longer bear it, turned around angrily, and asked loudly:
"Your Majesty should be aware that if something happens to us here, the two Southeast countries will inevitably go to war again."
Emperor Nan Xin stood up and looked down at them.
"You, Grand Secretary Dongji, you are very courageous."
"There were envoys from Dongji who came to Nanxin before, but you are the only one who dared to speak to me so brazenly."
"As expected of the grandson of Deng Mian and Han Qiongyue."
He suddenly mentioned their grandfather, the old Duke.
"Sixteen years ago, it was I who stabbed Deng Mian with the sword."
"If Deng Mian hadn't died, how could Han Qiongyue lead the army in person?"
"Oh, by the way, if your grandmother hadn't gone to war, how could your cousin, the Princess Zhenguo, have been left in Nanxin for sixteen years?"
There was a sense of nostalgia in his tone.
It was as if an elder was telling the younger generations the stories of their era.
After the story was told, he couldn't help but laugh.
Until the smile on his face became more and more crazy, and the corners of his mouth rose to a twisted angle.
A fierce look like an eagle's claws stayed on Deng Youning's eyes.
Deng Youning and Deng Yan'an were both children who had just returned to the Deng family to recognize their ancestral roots. Since Han Qiongyue did not tell them about the affairs of the Deng family, they knew nothing about it.
They also just found out who killed their grandfather Deng Mian.
Deng Youning clenched her hands tightly.
Deng Yan'an also stared at Emperor Nan Xin with the same eyes that seemed to want to kill him.
The blood debt that Nan Xin owes to the Deng family is getting more and more!
But now, everything has to be endured.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what advice you have for these old stories?"
Deng Yan'an really didn't know.
Could it be that Emperor Nanxin just wanted to intimidate them?
Emperor Nanxin smiled and shook his head. "Children, do you think that if I wanted to kill you, would I really be afraid of you riding the Eastern Iron Horse to trample Nanxin?"
He had always viewed Deng Yan'an, who had been barking at him, and the entire Dongji delegation, who had ruined today's banquet, with the attitude of an adult watching children quarreling.
He is still like an elder who guides and instructs.
But when he spoke, the majesty of an emperor without even getting angry was fully displayed.
After all, old ginger is still spicy.
The last time Deng Youning and Deng Yan’an saw this kind of imperial majesty was when the late Emperor Dongji died a few months ago.
A man who has been an emperor for half his life is more dignified than these young men who are just starting out.
Are you planning to kill someone to silence them?
Everyone clenched their weapons at that moment.
"It's very simple for you to leave Nanxin safely. Apart from her, I won't care whether anyone else goes or stays."
Emperor Nan Xin pointed at Deng Youning with a very firm tone.
Everyone was shocked.
Deng Youning also frowned.
"She is just my maid, what can she do by staying?"
Deng Yan'an asked a sincere question.
"Since she is just a maid, that's easy to deal with. Seeing her natural beauty, I want to make her my concubine and keep her by my side."
Emperor Nan Xin's attitude didn't seem like he was joking at all.
Everyone was stunned.
Conferring a title of consort is no joke.
When he said this, even Nanxinren himself was confused.
Yuan Gu's pupils dizzied and he was almost ready to go forward for an audience.
Even Li Tianzhuo probably never expected that his beloved father would want to snatch his wife from him.
