Chapter 110 Yan Xuanjing, it's your turn
Just because of this sentence coming from the Yangxin Palace, the eldest prince fell silent instantly.
The expression on his face was distorted to the extreme. His lips moved, but he didn't dare to make a sound.
Afterwards, he could only give the two of them a look that said "wait for me" with an extremely frustrated look, then he flicked his sleeves and entered the Yangxin Palace.
Even when she ran into the real enemy who killed her father in her previous life, Qin Mingzhu's eyes were still filled with smiles.
But the smile did not reach her eyes. She suddenly tilted her head slightly and asked the eunuch beside her in a low voice.
"Your Highness, why are you in such a hurry? What's the urgent matter?"
The young eunuch rolled his eyes, then whispered, "Your Highness the Prince is concerned about the country and the people, and has always been thinking about the envoys from the Northern Frontier who are hanging at the Meridian Gate..."
Although this is not a secret, it is obviously not something a small eunuch can say casually.
She asked, and the other party answered because he chose to stand on Yan Fengxiao's side.
Qin Mingzhu understood very well, so she quietly took out a folded silver note from her sleeve and stuffed it into the other's arms. The little eunuch was stunned at first, and then the smile on his face became brighter.
"His Royal Highness came here once yesterday, but was driven out by the Emperor. His Highness did not want the two countries to go to war, and even proposed a marriage alliance with Northern Xinjiang to put aside past grievances..."
Qin Mingzhu and Yan Fengxiao looked at each other.
Although the young eunuch didn't say much, the news he revealed was very shocking.
Although this should no longer be a secret in the palace, there are probably only a few people who know about it.
Inside the Yangxin Palace, Yan Xuanjing knelt down immediately upon entering.
"Father..."
The Emperor of Southern Yan had a gloomy expression on his face as he stared at his disappointing son below, and his voice became a little colder.
"If it's still the same things as before, then don't mention it again."
"Father, this time I have received confirmation from the Northern Frontier Kingdom. The Northern Frontier Emperor has apologized to you in a letter and wants to negotiate with us again. He said that this time the conditions will definitely satisfy you and he is even willing to send another princess to marry..."
Yan Xuanjing spoke with righteousness and sternness, his expression becoming quite serious and solemn.
There is nothing wrong with him not wanting to fight. Since the two countries have the opportunity to develop peacefully, the Southern Yan Kingdom has suffered frequent natural disasters and man-made disasters in recent years. If there is a large-scale war, it will definitely be even worse.
He is a prince, so he has to consider the country and the people. As long as the war is stopped, he, the eldest prince, will be recorded in history and his achievements will be unparalleled!
The Emperor of Southern Yan narrowed his eyes, trying to use his eyes to uncover his son's skull and take a good look at what was going on in his mind.
"Did you come up with this idea, or did your grandfather?"
Yan Xuanjing lowered his head and said, "Yes... your son."
The Emperor of Southern Yan laughed and slapped the table in anger.
"lie!"
Yan Xuanjing said nothing.
This idea was naturally my grandfather's, but he couldn't say it out loud.
Even if his father suspected him, he could not admit it. He knew the seriousness of the matter.
The Emperor of Southern Yan paced back and forth in front of the Yangxin Palace with his hands behind his back, a pensive look on his face.
He arranged for Yan Fengxiao to go to the northern border. Not long after he issued the order, the Northern Frontier Emperor received the news. Later, another message came that he was ready to retreat and negotiate again.
This retreat was quite interesting, and even the Emperor of Southern Yan couldn't help but sneer.
"Yan Xuanjing, please explain to me clearly that the Northern Frontier Emperor's reply letter not only offers benefits but also does not make any demands."
"Require……"
Yan Xuanjing's eyes flickered slightly, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"explain!"
The Emperor of Southern Yan suddenly scolded.
Yan Xuanjing lowered his head. "As long as... Yan Fengxiao is handed over, Northern Frontier is willing to cease hostilities unconditionally. We have also arranged for the princess to come and marry. We are even willing to sell the minerals produced in Northern Frontier to Southern Yan at a low price. From now on, the two countries will have friendly exchanges and forgive past mistakes..."
The Emperor of Northern Frontier has increased the stakes!
He has only one goal, and that is to get Yan Fengxiao!
Although Yan Fengxiao had made great military achievements and even held a high official rank, in reality, the price offered by Beijiang had already tempted many people in the court.
It only takes one person to put an end to a losing war. This is simply a great victory!
The Emperor of Southern Yan pondered for a while.
"Yan Xuanjing, write back to the Northern Frontier Emperor."
Yan Xuanjing's heart instantly became active.
Could it really work this time?
He has instigated many ministers in the court to impeach Yan Fengxiao every few days and accuse him of many crimes. As long as his father nods, he can legitimately turn Yan Fengxiao, a meritorious official, into a criminal!
Then, we will secretly send it to the Northern Frontier. No one will know the truth. All of this will be done in secret...
"Ask the Northern Frontier Emperor. I agree to all the other conditions, but can I replace his people?"
"Who... to change?" A moment of confusion flashed across Yan Xuanjing's eyes.
"you."
Yan Xuanjing's eyes widened instantly, and then he felt as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and he instantly collapsed to the ground...
…
The wing room on the fourth floor of Yuxiang Tower.
Although it was dark outside, the restaurant was bustling with activity.
The capital of Southern Yan is now known as the city that never sleeps, and the main streets are brightly lit at night.
Yan Liuchen was sitting on one side of the room at this time, looking at the man and woman sitting opposite him with a look of shock.
He was quite happy to receive the invitation from his friend, but when he arrived at the scene, he found that the couple came.
"The Emperor personally granted the marriage. Brother Yan, this is a generous gesture..."
Yan Fengxiao looked normal.
"I came to see you today for two things."
The Second Prince, dressed in purple and with a very elegant and handsome face, seemed to be wearing a mask of pain. "I know that Brother Yan is always straightforward and doesn't like to beat around the bush, but since you are here, can you please finish this meal first?"
"You eat, I say."
Qin Mingzhu was sitting next to Yan Fengxiao. Seeing the second prince in front of her, who had a handsome appearance and a very relaxed and unrestrained demeanor, she felt that he was indeed as his name suggested.
Although the second prince Yan Liuchen is a playboy and has many concubines at home, he is still a decent person.
However, Qin Mingzhu was also very clear that one should not judge a person by his appearance. It was definitely not an ordinary person for His Royal Highness the Second Prince to be able to compete with the First Prince for the throne for so many years.
"First, Yan Xuanjing intends to make peace with Northern Xinjiang and compete with you for the throne."
Yan Liuchen, who had just stuffed the food into his mouth, almost spit it out.
"Pfft... No, can we still do this?"
Yan Fengxiao ignored him, his phoenix eyes narrowed, and the expression on his face was so cold that it made people unable to pay attention to his extremely handsome face for a moment.
"The second thing is, tomorrow, after I leave the capital, if anything happens to my wife during this time, I will come back and ask you first..."
