Chapter 505: The treacherous minister takes action



Yan Chaoyue greeted Xin Che, Xin Cheng, and Chen Fulan, "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Sister-in-law! We finally meet!"

Don't hit a smiling person. The smile on his face is warm and honest.

Xin Ningyu pinched his arm and said, "Don't smile so foolishly. It makes me feel like I married a fool."

Xin Che poured a glass of wine for Yan Chaoyue. "Brother Yan, you're too polite. We haven't had time to thank you for helping the Xin family settle down on the grassland. Let me toast you first."

When Xin Cheng saw how Yan Chaoyue and Xin Ningyu got along, he knew that his third sister really liked this strange grassland Khan in front of her, so he raised his glass and toasted Yan Chaoyue.

"Brother Yan, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness."

Yan Chaoyue quickly responded enthusiastically.

Xin Ningyu grabbed Jiang Lili and although it was their first meeting, there was no sense of strangeness at all, it was as natural as old friends meeting again.

Xin Ningyu embraced Jiang Lili and said, "Sister-in-law, I'll toast you too."

"If you hadn't delivered the message, I'd have been unable to move forward on the grassland."

"I can fight on the front lines without worry, all thanks to you sending me all sorts of amazing supplies. I feel so safe!"

Jiang Lili touched Xin Ningyu's glass with the wine glass in her hand and winked at her: "You're welcome."

"That's because you're worth it."

Jiang Lili's words hit Xin Ningyu's heart directly, "Sister-in-law! You are so good!"

Xin Ningyu held Jiang Lili's hand and said, "If you were a man, I would be moved by what you said."

Feeding them with various supplies every day makes me feel safe, and they speak so sweetly! What kind of teammates are they?

Xin Ningyu's words caused dissatisfaction among both men.

Yan Chaoyue was indignant: "How am I worse than Li Li?"

Xin Che didn't say anything but looked resentful. Li Li had never said this to him.

The people who met for the first time quickly blended in with each other while joking and laughing. The young prince and his wife had kind smiles on their faces as they watched the group of young people chattering.

The atmosphere inside Prince Zhao's mansion was full of joy, which was completely different from the atmosphere outside the mansion.

Xia Su's military command and the grassland envoys were in a stalemate.

Xia Su frowned and looked at the guard who was the first to arrive at Prince Zhao's palace. "Are you saying you saw the grassland Khan forcing his way into the palace?"

"Yes, sir! I saw it with my own eyes."

The guard said with certainty, "The woman and the Khan's horse were running too fast, but the small push was not bad. When they rushed forward, they saw that the grassland Khan punched the servant who was closing the door open!"

"How dare you be so rude in Prince Zhao's mansion? The grassland people are really becoming more and more arrogant."

Xia Su said this, but in his heart, a surge of anticipation welled up. He couldn't wait to see the two sides fight. His Majesty was in trouble now. He could openly punish Prince Zhao's mansion and let the grassland Khan take action. He could sit back and watch the tigers fight. Perhaps at the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, he could even borrow a knife to kill someone...

When Xia Su thought of this, he was delighted!

"Did you see King Zhao's reaction?"

Guard: "It seems that King Zhao invited the Khan of the Grassland to come in, and then asked the servant to close the door."

Is it like closing the door and beating the dog?

Xia Su thought of the woman who looked exactly like Xin Ningyu. Could it be...

Did the Khan of the grassland bring Xin Ningyu back specifically to humiliate King Zhao, reminding him that although he is now a prince, their daughter is still a sacrifice sent for marriage, and to expose their scars?

Xia Su widened his eyes!

It’s connected!

Everything makes sense now!

The Khan of the grassland had always been resentful of being defeated by the Xin family. When the Xin family's daughter was sent to the grassland to marry, he did not execute her but raised her well. He did not allow her to die so easily and get relief. Instead, he let her live well, suffering mental torture, the pain of missing her parents, and the humiliation of being on the grassland.

What the Khan of the grassland has been waiting for is to avenge his previous humiliation and hold his head high!

This Khan's endurance and cunning are truly terrifying.

If you had told me earlier that I was going to cause trouble for King Zhao, he wouldn't have stopped me and would have brought shame upon himself.

Rather than believing the outrageous rumor that Xin Ningyu is some kind of grassland Valkyrie, my meticulous analysis is much more reliable!

The Xin family is full of loyal and strong-willed people. How could they possibly collude with the foreign tribes on the grassland and conquer territory for them? Not to mention that the third daughter of the Xin family is a sickly woman who can't lift anything with her hands or carry anything on her shoulders.

The more Xia Su thought about it, the more he felt like a genius! But he didn't know who won this silent war in Prince Zhao's mansion.

Xia Su kept waiting and waiting until it was dark. He had been working as a free security guard for Prince Zhao's palace for most of the day, but he didn't see the Khan of the grassland come out.

Finally, when it was late at night, the door of Prince Zhao's mansion creaked open.

Yan Chaoyue came out of Prince Zhao's mansion with a red face and thick neck, and jumped on his horse, but the woman did not come out with him.

Judging from the situation, the Khan of the grassland suffered a setback in Prince Zhao's mansion.

The grassland envoys then headed towards the post station.

Xia Su yawned. This tiring job could finally be finished. Although it was tiring, he gained a lot.

He rode his horse hurriedly towards the palace.

After the palace gates were locked, the emperor was glad that he had to go through numerous checks before entering the palace. Xia Su came to the imperial study, but was stopped by Zhou Jushan's lackey Xiao Qiuzi.

"Master Xia, His Majesty is in the middle of discussing important matters and has ordered that no one is allowed to see him at this time."

Xiao Qiuzi said with a fake smile: "Why don't you wait here first?"

Xia Su, who had been standing guard at the gate of Prince Zhao's mansion all day, felt bitter when he heard this. He rubbed his aching back and said, "Okay, then I'll wait until His Majesty is done."

Xiao Qiuzi's smile remained unchanged. "How about I get Master Xia a chair to sit at the door of the imperial study?"

"good……"

Xia Su, tired of standing, was about to agree, but then he changed his mind and quickly braked: "No, no, I'll just stand here."

Now His Majesty is becoming more and more suspicious and sensitive. If he dares to move a chair to sit at the door of the Imperial Study, His Majesty will suspect that he wants to sit on the chair on the steps of the Imperial Study.

"Excuse me, Eunuch Qiu, who is in there now?"

Xiao Qiuzi smiled evilly when he heard this, and said warmly and politely, "A very important person."

Xia Su paused and thought, then looked inside and finished the job quickly.

In the imperial study.

The new leader of the secret guards is reporting to Emperor Qingning about the unusual incident of the grassland Khan entering the capital today.

The more Emperor Qingning listened, the uglier his expression became, and he even drank several sips of ginseng tea.

Zhou Jushan, who was standing aside, glanced at the ginseng tea.

"Your Majesty, that Khan is truly arrogant."

"It's fine that the first person I met when I came to the capital was Prince Zhao and not you, but you're actually fussing over such a trivial matter. The Emperor's majesty is bullshit."

The original leader of the secret guards had died during the assassination of King Zhao. When the new leader of the secret guards reported the situation, he told Emperor Yiqingning everything that had happened today.

Emperor Qingning's face flushed. "How dare you, a rude man from the grassland, be so arrogant!"

After saying this, he felt a pain in his chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out, splashing onto the memorial.
