"What does the emperor think?" Since Situ Yao didn't explain, she pretended to be crazy and stupid and pretended that she didn't understand what Situ Yao meant.
However, she wanted to play dumb, but Situ Yao didn't give her the chance: "I think Chen Yalan had a close relationship with the new king of Tubo during the battle in Tubo, so she is the best candidate to be the envoy. Yan'er, what do you think?"
Su Mengyan wanted to swear, "I think you're a nobody." But she could only feign surprise, and after a moment's thought, she said, "Your Majesty, I don't think this is feasible. Chen Yalan is General Chen's daughter, and she would never let her daughter travel such a long distance to Tibet."
Su Mengyan's words were absolutely right. After hearing this, Situ Yao pondered for a moment and said, "That being said, there's a saying in the world that if the ruler wants his subjects to die, the subjects must die. If I insist on having Chen Yalan go as an envoy, can General Chen still refuse?"
At this moment, Situ Yao made Su Mengyan feel a little strange. She didn't know why Situ Yao had become like this and would do anything for her.
Su Mengyan's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, a hint of impatience welling up in her chest, but she suppressed her temper and said to Sizhuo Tuyao, "Your Majesty's words are ill-intentioned. However, if Your Majesty really forces a meritorious official like General Chen, I'm afraid he will lose the support of the people. If he loses the support of the people, there will naturally be unimaginable consequences. I hope Your Majesty will reconsider."
At this time, she had to use public opinion to suppress Situ Yao, hoping that Situ Yao could think clearly about the consequences of this matter.
Sure enough, after hearing her words, Situ Yao's eyebrows knitted tightly together. "Yeah, why haven't I considered this issue? Is this really not feasible?"
He was still unwilling to give up this opportunity. For Situ Yao, he did not like Chen Yalan, and he did not care whether there was this woman in the harem. However, if such a woman could be sent to Tubo to ensure that Tubo and their two countries would have eternal friendship, then Chen Yalan would naturally make an indelible contribution.
This is a good idea that can kill two birds with one stone, but as Su Mengyan said, if Chen Yalan and General Chen Yi are unwilling, this thing will naturally not be feasible.
Looking at Su Mengyan in front of him, an idea slowly emerged in Situ Yao's mind: "Yan'er, you are the Queen. If you can persuade Chen Yalan, maybe she will be willing to be the envoy."
I thought what I had just said was serious enough and Situ Yao would definitely react. I didn't expect that Situ Yao not only did not give up the idea, but instead wanted me to persuade Chen Yalan.
Su Mengyan could no longer contain her anger: "Alright, Your Majesty, please don't talk about this matter anymore. I can't help you. You should go back to handle your official business."
This was a blatant rejection on her part.
"Yan'er, what are you doing? How do you know that Chen Yalan doesn't want to?" Situ Yao said this before he was driven away.
After Situ Yao left, Su Mengyan thought carefully about what he said and felt that it was indeed the case. Just as he said, if Chen Yalan was willing to go to Tubo, wouldn't it be bad for her to do so?
After thinking about it, she felt that she needed to talk to Chen Yalan about this matter and ask her what she thought.
At this time, Chen Yalan and Fu Liu were flying kites.
Two kites shone against each other in the azure sky. Two women chatted in the imperial garden.
When Su Mengyan came, she saw such a scene, and something in her heart seemed to be touched.
As if infected by the smiles of the two women, Su Mengyan also had a smile on her face.
However, after Su Mengyan told Chen Yalan the whole story, before Chen Yalan could react, she saw Fu Liu standing beside her terrified.
"No, Sister Chen can't go. She won't go." Fu Liu's little hand held Chen Yalan's hand tightly and didn't let go.
Su Mengyan was very puzzled by Fu Liu's reaction. Chen Yalan, the person involved, did not react so strongly, so why was Fu Liu so excited?
"It depends on what Chen Da Ying thinks about this matter. It will be useless even if you refuse." Su Mengyan said to Fu Liu.
After they finished speaking, the two turned their gazes to Chen Yalan's face. Chen Yalan smiled slightly at Fu Liu, who was holding her tightly, and then looked back without looking away. Su Mengyan said, "Your Majesty, since you can come and tell me this news, it means that you still respect my opinion. I am very grateful for this."
"So what are you thinking?" Su Mengyan asked curiously. At the same time, she also felt that there seemed to be some special feelings between Fu Liu and Chen Yalan.
Hearing Su Mengyan's question, Chen Yalan's smiling eyes fell on Fu Liu again, and she said affectionately: "Your Majesty, I have no other wishes in this life. I just want to be with my beloved and live in peace in the harem."
Hearing Chen Yalan say this, Fu Liu's face flushed suspiciously. Su Mengyan beside her seemed to understand something as well.
If a serious ancient person found out about this, he would probably beat the two men to death. After all, in their minds, this kind of thing was immoral.
Unfortunately, Su Mengyan is a soul that traveled through time and space. She has a high acceptance of such things. She had previously discovered that the relationship between the two was not like that of ordinary friends. Perhaps she had already prepared herself in her heart, so when she heard Chen Yalan's words that sounded like a confession, she was not surprised at all.
However, when she heard the words "sharing the harem", she suddenly thought of the woman in red that she saw this morning.
It seemed like she had forgotten something important, and she couldn't find the key words even if she tried to.
Since she couldn't remember, Su Mengyan didn't force herself to think any further. She looked at the two people in front of her and smiled, "I felt the same way. So when the emperor proposed this idea, I told him that it might not work. But I felt that you were the person involved, so I wanted to come and ask for your opinion. Now that you are unwilling to go, I will naturally discuss it with the emperor again."
Hearing Su Mengyan say this, the two of them hurriedly bowed to Su Mengyan and said gratefully, "Your Highness, thank you for your consideration."
Neither the person involved nor Su Mengyan agreed to let Chen Yalan go to Tubo as an envoy, so the matter had to be left unresolved.
However, the new king of Tubo was about to ascend the throne, and they had to quickly select an envoy to go with gifts to Tubo.
