Chapter 148 The envoy saw the living Rong Chen
"But, Master Imperial Master." Shu Wan paused for a moment, then supported her chin with one hand, blinked and looked at Rong Chen, "Are you praising me for my superb chess skills, or for my amazing ability to manipulate rumors?" If she couldn't understand what Rong Chen meant, then she would have lived in vain.
"Both!" Rong Chen admitted it frankly, "How did Wanwan come up with this idea? Using rumors to suppress Yuwen Yan. When he was in such a passive situation, he must have torn you and me into pieces in his heart!" But when he thought of Yuwen Yan's angry but daring not to speak, he felt that Shu Wan had done a great job. She had been going out early and coming back late these days, and she actually did such a big thing.
"Yuwen Yan dares to threaten us, isn't it because he relies on the fact that no one knows the truth of this matter? In name, you are the imperial teacher, and I am a princess of a foreign country. It is perfectly normal for us to stay in Chiyan, or for anything to happen to us in Chiyan." Shu Wan's eyes flashed with a sly smile, "I was thinking, why don't I make this matter public, let everyone know our identities, and at the same time give him and the late emperor a good reputation of being righteous and understanding. In this way, he won't dare to stand up and say that what we said is false, but can only choke on us. "He had to swallow his blood and admit it. In public, he had to send someone to send us back politely. As for privately, of course, we don't need him to be hypocritical. Since we can't sneak around and hide it from others, and return to Black Water City smoothly from Chiyan under Yuwen Yan's control, then we should go back openly and let everyone in the world know our whereabouts. In this way, at least in public, Yuwen Yan dare not do anything again!" Shu Wan was very satisfied with her masterpiece this time. This time, it was enough for Yuwen Yan to drink a pot.
"Indeed!" Rong Chen nodded, indicating that Shu Wan was right. "Now that he is forced to wear such a high hat, it is indeed difficult to back down. The court is now flooded with praises from the people for him and the late emperor submitted by civil servants. Yuwen Yan would not be stupid enough to stand up and say that all this is fake!"
"Although he can't do anything on the surface, he will definitely not give up in private!" It goes without saying that Yu Wenyan will definitely make some small moves in private, "The more it is at this time, the more we can't be careless!"
"Well, okay, I will keep a close eye on him!" Rong Chen also knew that what she said was indeed something that had to be guarded against, "I won't let him sabotage secretly."
"Yeah!" Shu Wan responded, starting to feel a little tired and yawning unconsciously.
"Go to sleep!" Rong Chen saw that she was sleepy, so he stood up and carried her back, "I'll call you for dinner!"
"Okay!" Shu Wan responded lazily, and then she closed her eyes and fell asleep. She didn't even know when Rong Chen put her on the bed.
During this period, many people often gathered in front of the National Master's Mansion. They wanted to come and see the legendary Blackwater City Lord Rong Chen and his wife Shu Wan, who were deeply in love.
Rong Chen had to go out for something. When he went out to the border, he saw the people outside the government gate. The brave ones came up to interview him and asked him whether the recent rumors were true.
Rong Chen smiled elegantly and easy-goingly, telling everyone that these were all true, but their Majesty was about to send them away, and they didn't know when they would have the chance to set foot on the land of Chiyan again. He and Shu Wan were extremely reluctant to leave.
In order to express his and Shu Wan's gratitude to Yu Wenyan, he decided to form a brotherly relationship with Chi Yan. If Chi Yan was in trouble in the future, they from Heishui City would stick their necks out to help him. In addition, they gave many shops in Chi Yan from Heishui City to Chi Yan as a token of their gratitude. They asked all the elders and villagers to bear witness for him and never forget their promise in the future! It was from here that people started to discuss this matter to a new level. Whether it was a casual street greeting, a reunion of old friends, or a casual chat between neighbors, they all talked about this matter.
After praising Yuwen Yan and the late emperor for their kindness and noble character, they began to praise Rong Chen and Shu Wan for their gratitude and their deep understanding of justice, and for not being the kind of ungrateful people.
This matter is truly regarded as a beautiful story in the world! ...
A few days later, the envoys from Blackwater City arrived in the capital.
Yuwen Yan personally brought ministers from the court to the city gate to welcome them. The streets were lined with onlookers. The more enthusiastic they were, the more people from Blackwater City would feel their kindness. They wanted the people of Blackwater City to know that not only their Majesty and the Lord of Blackwater City were brothers, but they, the common people, were also willing to interact with the people of Blackwater City.
Yu Wenyan greeted the envoy from Blackwater City with an exaggerated smile on his face.
After the Blackwater City envoys exchanged greetings with him, they all knelt down in front of Rong Chen, almost crying, and told him how difficult their lives were during the days when Rong Chen was away!
It goes without saying that the news of Rong Chen's death caused a huge coup.
Rong Chen has no brothers and no children. After his death, the position of city lord will inevitably cause war, and those who are ready to make a move will definitely not be able to sit still.
Now the news that Rong Chen is still alive has spread. Even if he has not appeared in Blackwater City and it is just a rumor, this piece of news has stabilized the turbulent situation in an instant, and everyone is just waiting for him to return to take charge of the situation.
Today, the envoys saw Rong Chen alive. I believe that within a few days, this news will reach Blackwater City. By then, the situation will become more stable and no one will dare to act rashly.
Rong Chen’s reputation as the living king of hell is not undeserved!
For a moment, Yuwen Yan and Shu Wan's eyes met. Yuwen Yan's eyes were filled with anger, while Shu Wan, on the other hand, gave him a calm smile with some provocation in it.
…
The Blackwater City delegation acted quickly. After handing over the list of thank-you gifts, they said they wanted to take their leave, saying that their city lord had been away for too long, and now there were countless things, big and small, piling up in the city, and they were looking forward to him returning to take charge of the situation.
Yuwen Yan tried every means to keep the envoys, saying that he wanted to let the envoys get a good look at the customs and culture of Chiyan, and that Queen Mother Gao's birthday would be in a month, so he hoped that they could stay and celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday before leaving.
He was too timid to resist the fact that these people were too determined to leave, and he could not stop them without any bottom line, otherwise, people would notice that there was something unusual going on.
That would be a waste of time.
So in the end, Yuwen Yan could only force a smile and announced that he would prepare a banquet for everyone three days later.
