"Your Majesty, we are now facing a powerful enemy. What needs to be stabilized is the morale of the soldiers. If Your Majesty ignores the soldiers' requests, the consequences will be disastrous!" Jiang Yan said earnestly.
"Jiang Yan, tell me honestly, was this planned by you? What is your conspiracy?" Yue Nanxuan stood up and asked coldly,
"Pang Dayuan is your old subordinate, and the two newly elected left and right vanguard officers, they all have a close relationship with you, right?"
Jiang Yan raised his head and shouted, "I am terrified, Your Majesty, you have really wronged me!
It is true that Pang Dayuan is an old subordinate of mine, but ten years ago, I was the Minister of War, in charge of the Ministry of War, and all the generals were my subordinates. As for the newly appointed left and right vanguard officers, they were selected through a martial arts competition according to the emperor's wishes, and have nothing to do with me. Why did they do this? I have no idea!"
Jiang Yan's words were so sincere that he almost swore his life, leaving Yue Nanxuan unable to find any fault with him.
"Your Majesty, in my opinion, it is better to obey them first. Anyway, it is just a demotion of the prince's title. The prince will surely come back after receiving the news, and it will not be too late to restore it then! Now all the subjects are angry. If Your Majesty insists on having his own way, I am afraid..." Jiang Yan spoke again, with an appearance that he put the people first.
Yue Nanxuan naturally knew these principles. Originally, Yue Nanyu was already having a hard time in Louxi Country. After finally waiting for reinforcements, they stopped fighting and refused to go to the battlefield. Tianwen, on the other hand, led the people to expand continuously.
Time waits for no one. I hope Yue Nanchen can see the imperial edict and come back quickly to explain everything.
Even if he has lost his martial arts skills, he will let Yue Nanchen be the emperor and he will lead the charge into battle himself. Anyway, he has been pretending for so many years and that’s enough!
So an imperial edict was issued.
In the palace of Miro Kingdom, Yue Nanchen held the imperial edict of Nanyue in his hand, his arms trembling slightly. Yes, it was the printout of the Emperor of Nanyue, an imperial edict personally issued by the three of them. Why? Why exactly? Why didn't the third brother wait for him to return?
"Brother Yue..." Xiangze called him softly, "Don't be sad, things in the world are just like this. Now that you have lost your martial arts, you are already a useless person to him. Those people are so resistant to you, so he naturally has to follow the will of the people. You can't blame him!"
Yue Nanchen waved his hand coldly, signaling Xiangze to go out. Now he wanted to calm down and think about it!
"Princess, Princess, something bad has happened. There are so many snakes in your bedroom. Qingfeng and Qiuyue have both been bitten by snakes, and they won't leave no matter how hard we try!"
Xiangze's personal maid came hurriedly, and the Qingfeng and Qiuyue she mentioned were the two senior maids who served Xiangze.
"Idiot!" Xiangze was not flustered. "It seems that this princess has offended someone accidentally. Someone is playing tricks on this princess!" Xiangze said coldly, "Use realgar to fumigate, and the snake will naturally disperse!"
"Yes, yes, Princess!" The maid left in a hurry with gratitude. Xiangze turned around and glanced at Yue Nanchen. "Brother Yue, you should have a good rest. Don't think about anything. Anyway, you will be absolutely safe here!"
Yue Nanchen was silent. On the one hand, he was worried that it was Lan Shuiyao who released the snake as a prank. On the other hand, he couldn't figure out what happened to Nanyue.
What happened? Ten days have passed and there is still no news about Qianhun and Bairen. Could they have been murdered?
Who is this person with such superb martial arts skills? Is it the woman in black? What is her relationship with Xiangze?
Suddenly, a fine drizzle began to fall from the sky. The sound of wind and rain sounded like a low cry, shrouding the entire scenery in a misty rain. Yue Nanchen stood in front of the window dejectedly, looking at everything in the drizzle. The emotions in his heart could not be untied, entangled together, inextricably linked, chaotic, and he could not find a clue.
"I said, I can cure your poison and restore your martial arts!"...
The words Xiangze said that day came to my mind again. It didn't seem like she was just talking casually. Is this really the only way to go?
A red shadow flashed in the drizzle, and Yue Nanchen's heart moved. He watched the red light quickly flash into his room, and then quickly closed the window.
Looking back at the woman who was slumped in the round chair as if she had no bones, Yue Nanchen asked in a low voice, "Did you release those snakes?"
Shui Yao seemed very tired, nodding her head again and again, saying lazily, "That's right! That Xiang Ze really didn't disappoint me. She knows everything, including Qimen Dunjia, medical skills, and gambling skills. It's far from being as simple as it looks on the surface!"
"Are you doing this just to test her?" Yue Nanchen's eyes lit up and he sat down in front of her.
"That's right!" Shui Yao raised her eyes, "Do you think I would be childish and just scare her? Come on, am I such a boring person?" Shui Yao finished speaking, stretched out her arm lazily, took the teacup, and gulped down two cups of tea, "Since you said that she helped you along the way
After breaking the Tianwen formation and arriving at Louxi Country, I was puzzled. The Tianwen formation was very strange. How could Xiangze, a princess living in the deep palace, know such a profound art of Qimen Dunjia? And that night, she chose to appear when you were injured and completely lost your martial arts. Isn't it too coincidental? Or maybe you had contacted each other in advance?"
Yue Nanchen didn't say anything. He naturally understood what Shui Yao's suspicions meant. They all pointed to Xiangze. He had long felt that Xiangze was no simple person!
"You must be hungry, eat something!" Yue Nanchen didn't answer her, but just put the cake in front of her. Last time he was poisoned by Liu Yirou, he hid in the palace with Shuiyao for a few days, so he knew the hardship of hiding. He really didn't want Shuiyao to suffer like this again, so he would find out everything. Shuiyao was here just to distract him!
Shuiyao didn't hesitate to take the cake and eat it. She looked lazy, which made Yue Nanchen feel distressed. No, he must make Shuiyao leave here!
"Lan Shuiyao, you can leave after eating. I know what kind of person Xiangze is better than you! You are right, I can't be the King of Yongnan anymore. I can only be the consort of the Miro Kingdom!" He spoke lightly, his eyes dim, unable to bear to look at Shuiyao's expression.
"You!" Shui Yao looked at him angrily. At first, she thought that Yue Nanchen chose to be with Xiangze because he didn't want to drag her down. Now that they have arrived in Miro Country, Yue Nanchen still wants to be with her even though he knows that Xiangze has problems. Is this man's head stuck in the door?
"Xiangze is right. She is inferior to you in every aspect, but she is better than you in one aspect. She loves me very much. Now I am tired. A man with nothing.
I am no longer qualified to pursue you, so I can only stop and give you freedom! "
Yue Nanchen spoke in a low voice, with his eyes lowered. He really didn't have the courage to look at Lan Shuiyao. "Fortunately, we haven't reached the point where we love each other. Lan Shuiyao, this is not the place for you to stay. Let's go!"
After Yue Nanchen finished speaking, he turned around and said, "Go back to Nanyue, you may be needed more there!"
When Shui Yao returned to Nanyue, she at least knew what had happened. Here, if the woman in black was really from the Miro Kingdom, then Shui Yao would be in danger at any time!
Shui Yao shot two cold rays of light at Yue Nanchen's face for a long time, "Yuen Nanchen, you are right, there is really no need for me to delay your good things here. In this case, considering that we are acquainted, I will let Xiangze go for the time being. I will go to A Luo to get blood, and after I have dissolved the blood oath, I will naturally leave. Don't worry, I will not bother you again!"
After Shui Yao finished speaking, her red clothes fluttered and she left.
Staring blankly at the red shadow disappearing in the misty rain, Yue Nanchen closed his eyes and cried bitterly. He knew that it would be difficult to get Shui Yao's forgiveness in the future, but in the current situation, he had to find a way to get the antidote, restore his martial arts, and by the way, uncover the mastermind behind the scenes. He had no choice but to do this, there was no other way!
The candlelight was on in Prince A Luo's study all night. Leng Jiu personally brought a bowl of midnight snack to A Luo's table and said respectfully, "Prince, don't be too tired. Drink this bowl of bird's nest first!"
A Luo raised his face. After going through so many things, the calmness and indifference in the man's eyes were gone, replaced by a gloomy and aggressive look. "Go down, don't disturb this prince from reading the memorials!"
