Faced with Su Yunying's repeated probing questions, Yu Xiyan's delicate body trembled uncontrollably.
Looking at myself in the picture, my face full of peach blossoms and tender affection, I felt for the first time that this face was so disgusting.
In the scene, Yu Xiyan takes Lin Feng's hand and the two stroll along the lake.
Like a couple deeply in love, whispering sweet nothings to each other.
They would occasionally rub their noses against each other's faces, displaying their delicate and charming demeanor.
Just then, Shangguan Qiuyue arrived on horseback.
She completely ignored Lin Feng and went straight to Yu Xiyan, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty! The Po Jun Mansion..."
Yu Xiyan's rare moment with Lin Feng was interrupted, and her expression immediately turned cold. Before she could finish speaking, she cut her off:
"Didn't I say? Don't report back to me about anything concerning the Po Jun Mansion."
Shangguan Qiuyue looked troubled, glanced at Lin Feng beside her, and then whispered to Yu Xiyan:
"Your Majesty, just half an hour ago, Shen Zhao led 100,000 Iron Flame Army soldiers through Chang'an and headed towards the Yellow Springs Pass."
"What did you say? He dares!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiyan's tone immediately turned cold, and the tenderness on her face transformed into overwhelming rage.
Shangguan Qiuyue couldn't help but shiver and whispered, "The whole city knows."
Yu Xiyan's face immediately turned frosty, and she clenched her teeth tightly.
"Shen Zhao, why do you repeatedly oppose me? Are you determined to push the Dayin Dynasty into an abyss for power and fame?"
"Issue my decree: he must immediately withdraw his troops and come to the palace to explain himself!"
Shangguan Qiuyue: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid this will be very difficult. The news that the Iron Flame Army is about to go on an expedition has already spread throughout the entire Great Yin Dynasty. In a few days, other factions will surely know as well."
Recalling the Iron Flame Army at this time would greatly damage the prestige of our Great Yin Dynasty. I urge Your Majesty to reconsider.”
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiyan calmed down.
Lin Feng stood silently to the side, simply watching the scenery on the lake, seemingly indifferent to everything.
After a long silence, Yu Xiyan finally said, "Fine, fine, Shen Zhao, you've gone to such extremes. Since that's how it is, then I'll grant his wish."
I had an agreement with him that he would be in charge of the Po Jun Mansion, and the court would have no right to mobilize its troops. But he's going to provoke the Nine Netherworlds.
"Then go ahead and do it. I and the Great Yin Dynasty will not be responsible for any actions he or the Po Jun Mansion take!"
Shangguan Qiuyue frowned slightly, but still accepted the order and withdrew.
After everyone left, Yu Xiyan sighed and said to Lin Feng, "Xiao Feng, why does he always go against me? I believe I've treated him well over the years..."
Why is he still not satisfied? Does he only find contentment when I hand over the entire empire to him?
Lin Feng said with a smile, "Sister, don't be angry. He doesn't know how terrifying the Nine Netherworld is. Once he sees it for himself, he will naturally back down."
Yu Xiyan: "I'm afraid that if I anger Jiuyou afterward, won't I be the one to clean up this mess for him?"
"If you're worried about Xiaofeng, sister, why don't you let me try to persuade him?"
"You? No, Shen Zhao hates you to the bone. If you go, won't you suffer all kinds of humiliation from him again?"
"What does it matter if Xiaofeng suffers a little humiliation as long as he can share his sister's burdens? Sister, don't worry."
"But……"
"Sister, Xiaofeng swears that he will persuade Shen Zhao to give up this expedition. Even if it's for the sake of the world, I will try."
"Xiaofeng, I really don't know how to thank you."
"As long as my sister is happy, I'm willing to do anything for her. It's decided then, and I'll set off right away."
After saying this, Lin Feng smiled gently, bid farewell to Yu Xiyan, and turned to walk towards the gate of Chang'an.
...
Yu Xiyan felt ice-cold all over. Looking at this scene from the past, she felt it was so absurd.
Su Yunying couldn't hold back any longer and pressed, "Why did you do this? Do you really hate him that much?"
Yu Xiyan took a deep breath and said slowly, "What do you, an outsider, know?"
The situation was far more complicated than you think. If you were in Raymond Lam's shoes, what would you have done?
Su Yunying said frankly, "I will stand firmly on his side, not for any other reason than that he is the one who is truly doing something great and is willing to fight to the death!"
Yu Xiyan shook her head: "You can say these things so confidently if you haven't experienced them yourself."
But the truth is, if you were in that situation, would you definitely not make a mistake?
Su Yunying frowned.
Yu Xiyan pressed on, "If it were you, before you saw Lin Feng's true colors,
They will definitely be completely fooled by him and will fall deeper and deeper into his trap.
He's even worse than me; at least I didn't really want Shen Zhao to die back then.
If it were you, would you definitely have done a better job than me?
I think you've already been so easily fooled by this kind of person that you can't even tell who you are anymore.
Su Yunying remained silent.
Just then, seemingly to confirm Yu Xiyan's words, the Kunlun Mirror changed scenes again.
Su Yunying and Yu Xiyan looked over at the same time, and saw a simple palace appearing in a vast mountain forest.
"This place looks so familiar, I feel like I've been here before..."
"Ah, I remember now, that's... Dragon Abyss Valley in the Southern Region?"
Just as Su Yunying was shocked, another beautiful figure appeared on the screen.
Compared to Yu Xiyan, who exudes a cold and majestic imperial aura, the beautiful figure in front of her is much simpler in terms of adornment and clothing.
The woman possessed stunning beauty, but compared to Yu Xiyan's aloofness, she had a more down-to-earth charm, and her face always held a touch of innocence.
