Zuo Qiyang clenched his fists tightly and knelt there with his body straight.

Emperor Yan sat back down on the top and looked down at him from above. At this point, he had already put his attitude in front of Zuo Qiyang, what should he do next, how to say it, Emperor Yan believes that there is no need to say more, and this subordinate in front of him should also be very clear.

Five years ago, Zuo Qiyang suddenly had a falling out with Yan Ciyi, the king of Dongyuan Xin, and fled to the west to try to take refuge in the Xiyou court.

At that time, in addition to the ambiguous attitude of the Empress Dowager, it was rare for the court and the central government and the east and west palaces to be unanimous with the outside world, thinking that this person should be eliminated, and only he Yan Ciyong was the only one who overrode public opinion as the king of a country and left him.

Now, five years later, he has always believed that he did not see the wrong person, nor did he use the wrong person.

But whether this kind of trust can continue can only depend on whether Zuo Qiyang's current reply can satisfy him.

Zuo Qiyang's forehead was slightly covered with a layer of fine sweat.

He is such an eight-faced person, how could he not know what Emperor Yan is thinking at this moment.

With his style, if he changes someone else's other things, let alone wait until this moment to confront the saint, I am afraid that as early as a few days ago, when he learned that the emperor secretly sent troops to Beijing, he could not wait to rush to the emperor's dormitory, kneel in front of him, "heartbroken" and admit his mistakes.

After all, with Zuo Qiyang's life principles, he only needs to use his mouth to show his attitude, dissociate himself from the people who have a headache with Emperor Yan, and he can eliminate a crisis without using a single soldier and let him continue to gain a firm foothold in the Xiyou Palace.

He has never been a person who puts the hat of loyalty on his body like Tang Yinbrown and adds a lot of burdens to himself for no reason -- for his own interests and safety, he thinks that he can do anything.

This is also why when he found out that Zhu Ciyi was not a long-term place to live, he decisively chose to defect all the way to his companions and spurn the countrymen.

But this time, in the face of such a simple question, he couldn't give an answer that could satisfy Emperor Yan.

Emperor Yan waited for a while, and when he saw that Zuo Qiyang still didn't mean to speak, he pouted a little impatiently, leaned forward with one hand on his knees, looked at Zuo Qiyang's tightly lowered head, and asked, "You only told me that if Xin Zi really came to Xiyou and rushed all the way to Xijing, would you open the door to welcome her in, or would you turn her away?" ”

Such a question made Chang De'an, who was respectfully standing aside, looking at his nose and nose, and his heart, but he couldn't help muttering a little in his heart.

The emperor even threw out such a question, and he inevitably attached too much importance to Lord Zuo.

Not to mention that at this juncture, it is impossible for his decision to change anything, even if he can really shake some people in the palace to stand in his camp, but he is facing the king of a country at the moment, if the emperor has made it clear that he will not let that girl step into Xijing City for half a step, what else can he do to accept her?

Do you want to be the enemy of the emperor? What is he capable of and what capital is there to do so?

Thinking like this, he didn't understand what this Lord Zuo was hesitating at the moment.

Zuo Qiyang naturally didn't know what Chang De'an, who was serving the emperor, was thinking, but he figured out one thing, that is, if he refused to help Ah Zi, he would definitely regret it in the future - and he had never done anything in his life that he would regret it later.

After thinking about this matter clearly, he also understood how to deal with it, and the whole person was much more relaxed.

"Returning to Your Majesty," Zuo Qiyang raised his head and looked at Emperor Yan's gaze with a firm and calm gaze, "I humbly ask to go to Gaoxiang Town." He promised the emperor that he would leave Xin Zi in Gaoxiang Town and not let her set foot in Xijing City for half a ......."

Zuo Qiyang was halfway through his words when he was interrupted by the sound of a tea bowl slamming on the table, and he immediately lowered his voice, maintaining a saluting posture and not daring to move.

Emperor Yan glared at him, his eyes burning with anger: "Do you really not understand or are you pretending to be confused here with me?" Are you going to wait for her in Gaoxiang Town? Hehe, do I want this from you?

"Okay, you Zuo Qiyang. You are used to taking advantage of loopholes, I said that I would not let that girl step into Xijing City for half a step, you just want to find a convenient place next to Xijing City to settle her?

"You're thoughtful, huh?

"Do you take what I mean for child's play?"

Zuo Qiyang didn't dare to answer, so he could only lower his head again, and only replied in a low voice after a while: "Don't dare to be humble." ”

But in his heart, he began to think about what he should do next if the emperor really agreed to his seemingly unreasonable but feasible request, so that he could build the defense system of the town on the edge of Xijing as much as possible.

Emperor Yan's voice came slowly: "What Zhu Ciyi wants is to let Xin Zi escape into Xiyou and escape to Xijing, so as to give him an excuse to send troops to invade my Xiyou, so that his troops stationed in the border can kill all the way here and directly threaten the rule of the Yan family."

"Do you think there really makes any difference whether Xin Zi stays in Xijing or Gaoxiang? Do you think that if Dongyuan's army really arrives in Gaoxiang, it will stop at the town adjacent to Xijing and let go of the capital of Xiyu? ”

Of course, Zuo Qiyang would not be stupid enough to really think like this.

But Emperor Yan apparently didn't realize how important Xin Zi was to him.

Since this is the case, it is naturally impossible for him to take the initiative to pierce this layer of reason, which will undoubtedly deepen the emperor's hatred for that girl. Instead of letting him put his resentment on a little girl, let him continue to mistakenly think that his hesitation was just vacillating between the two camps, as he is now.

Therefore, Zuo Qiyang decided to continue to pretend to be stupid.

He lowered his head and said resignedly: "Your Majesty didn't just ask for the opinion of the lowly position just now. The lowly position only thought about what could be done within the lowly position, and did not consider such things as how King Xin and Dongyuan would send troops......"

Emperor Yan only felt a terrible headache when he heard this, and he didn't understand why a person who was so transparent before was like a piece of wood at the moment, how could he not make sense, he stroked his forehead with one hand, sighed long, and fell silent.

The pin drop could be heard in the imperial study for a while, and everyone held their breath, hoping to disappear into the background.

After a long time, Emperor Yan spoke again, and his tone was obviously tired: "In this case, if you insist on going, I will allow you." Zuo Qiyang listened to the order. ”

Zuo Qiyang put his hands on his sleeves and respectfully accepted the order.

"I order you to leave immediately and go to Gaoxiang Town, and you must not leave without my will. Remember, I said that you are only allowed to leave, not a single soldier. ”
