Chapter 542: Third Brother's Advice

Seeing the awkward situation between the two brothers, Fu Yao hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Prince Yi'an: "My Royal Brother, why did you have time to come here today?"

Prince Yi'an naturally knew Fu Yao.

After all, she was a member of the Fu family and the only female general in the Dali Kingdom.

So he was very polite to her and bowed: "Sister-in-law."

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but looked at Fu Yao hesitantly.

His suspicious attitude made King Yixuan angry: "Ayao is my wife, and she can be involved in all matters of the family. If you suspect her, please do as you please!"

"I can't learn to be two-faced."

The latter sentence is naturally a mockery of King Yian.

Seeing that King Yixuan looked like he had taken poison today, Fu Yao reached out and pulled his sleeve, signaling him to be more restrained.

No matter what, Prince Yi'an is still his royal brother. If he really is that kind of person, and he is caught doing something wrong here today, wouldn't he be reported to the emperor for no reason?

King Ui Seon naturally knew what his wife meant. He took out his hand and patted the back of her hand, signaling her to rest assured, then turned around and looked at King Ui An in front of him again.

It seemed like she was waiting for him to speak.

King Yi An finally stopped hesitating, nodded and said, "I know, you have blamed me all these years."

"We all know what kind of person the Second Prince is. Did you get any good results by confronting him head-on like this?"

"Being sidelined and imprisoned is your way of avenging your brother?"

"You!" King Yixuan was stunned for a moment. He looked up at his brother in surprise, and felt that he was a bit strange. But he said unmercifully, "I have no regrets!"

Even Fu Yao realized that something was wrong. Could it be that for all these years, the Third Emperor had been... ?

However, the two did not let down their guard. What if this person was the emperor's lobbyist and came to test them?

It's better to deal with it carefully.

The couple looked at each other and understood each other's thoughts, even if King Yian was truly repentant today, or had been pretending to be stupid in the past.

They would definitely not reveal any information about Pei Chuyan.

They were still afraid in their hearts, fearing that Prince Yi'an was sent by the emperor, and his purpose, of course, was to extract information about Pei Chuyan from them.

After realizing this, King Yixuan's tone became bad again when he spoke again.

"Brother, there is no need to stand here and point fingers at others. If you have something to say, just tell me. If not, my wife and I have things to do."

King Yi'an let out a long sigh, but he was very relieved in his heart.

Fortunately, my younger brother has grown up now. Since he knows how to guard against me, he can definitely guard against others as well.

Under the surprised gazes of the couple, the Third Prince turned around and sat on a chair beside him. He reached out to the small table beside him, but there was no tea.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly.

Knowing that his younger brother hated him so much over the years, he even refused to serve him tea.

Forget it. I’m not here for tea anyway.

Then he looked up at the couple in front of him and said to himself, "It's normal for you to be wary of me because of what I have done over the years."

"My royal brother can certainly understand."

"In recent years, the days when you and I followed my brother are still vivid in my mind."

"Brother, just speak your mind, no need to..."

King Uian waved his hand to interrupt King Ui Seon and continued speaking without paying any attention to him.

"I know that for all these years, because I was close to Li Cheng, you hated and resented me in your heart. You felt that I did not firmly support my brother, or that I was just a fence-sitter."

"I have struggled hard over the years."

"But among us brothers, you have been sidelined because you rebelled against Li Cheng. If I were to do the same as you, who would fulfill my brother's ambition in the future?"

"That child will be found eventually."

Upon hearing this, King Ui Seon stood up from his chair and looked at King Ui An in surprise: "You..."

He originally thought that Pei Chuyan's affairs were a secret, but he didn't expect that even King Yi'an knew about it now.

Did he discover it himself, or did Li Cheng tell him?

Fu Yao was naturally surprised, but she tried hard to suppress her excitement. However, her tightly clenched hands with red knuckles betrayed her nervousness at the moment.

After taking a long breath, Fu Yao said, "What are you talking about, my brother? My prince doesn't understand."

King Yi'an had no intention of letting the couple be honest with him, so he didn't care at all about their disguise in front of him.

But this time, King Yi'an did not speak a word. Instead, he took out an exquisite little object from his sleeve, which looked like a tiger talisman.

Now it was Fu Yao's turn to be surprised.

She reached out her hand and pulled King Yixuan, who was still standing, to sit down. Then she looked at King Yian opposite her with a fierce look: "What do you mean, my brother?"

When the couple refused to take the bait, King Yi An simply stood up, walked in front of the two of them, and placed the tiger on the small table between them. He continued, "All these years, I have been groveling and withholding my dignity beside him just for this thing."

"A few days ago, I came to Prince Yixuan's mansion to arrest someone. I personally asked for permission to come."

"Perhaps it was because of my action that Li Cheng trusted me a little more, so he gave me the tiger talisman."

"This tiger talisman governs the 5,000 troops in the camp outside the city."

"Although there are not many, they are elite. Most importantly, they are all my former brother's men."

"If the time comes, I will be able to use it for you."

"Even though you two don't recognize me, you have been sidelined for so many years, and there must be no one around you to use."

"These people and this tiger talisman are at your disposal."

"There is only one tiger talisman. I'll leave it with you."

"You..." King Yixuan opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say next.

He was doubtful, but also somewhat moved.

The brotherhood that has lasted for so many years cannot be let go.

As if he saw the hesitation in his heart, King Yi'an waved his hand again and said, "You don't have to feel guilty. It's a good thing that you are now on guard against the world and everyone."

Thinking of this, King Yi'an gave a helpless smile, tears welling up in his eyes, and his voice was choked up when he spoke: "As for me, as long as I can help you, that's the best."

"One more thing. The Fourth Prince is on Li Cheng's side. You must be careful with him and never reveal anything to him."

"You two know where the child is."
