Yongye froze at her, then directly grabbed one of her arms, pulled her whole person up and walked out, "Let's go, I'll take you to see with your own eyes how terrible these old things are......"

Luo Liyao: "...... Even if you say that, I'm—"

"Don't say you don't want to?" Yongye pulled her out, looking back at her, and showed a smile that was not like her before, "I already received the news when I came, the Tianqi delegation has entered the city—don't you just have some plans at this time?" ”

Luo Liyao looked at her quietly and was silent.

Sometimes, silence is acquiescence.

Seeing her silent appearance of wanting to say something, but not knowing what to say, Yongye couldn't help laughing: "Little princess—you are really naïve. You need to know...... Shen Chu is not your Tianqi, there is no imperial brother here to protect you. No matter what you want to do in Shenchu, the first thing you have to think about is how to leave a way back for yourself. ”

"Where are you taking me?" Luo Liyao didn't want to continue this topic with her, so she had to resist her pull slightly, and asked her other questions, "This is the direction to go to Shen Chu's political palace - if I remember correctly, Shen Chu obviously never allows harem women to appear in the court......"

"So what?" Yongye glanced at her with a smile, as if he had heard something extremely funny, and even looked at her with a look at a childish child who was messing around, "You are Tianqi's person, is it possible that Tianqi also has this pedantic rule?" ”

Luo Liyao was choked by her words, and even felt that she was very reasonable, and she didn't know how to refute it, and after hesitating back and forth, she was directly pulled out of the hall, causing the heavenly machine outside the palace door to "tsk" twice.

Yongye didn't have time to pay attention to him, so he just kept pulling Luo Liyao from the palace avenue to the upper political hall, without the slightest intention to avoid people's eyes, and even let Ye Luoqing follow them far away very openly.

It's like it's meant to be shown to someone.

Luo Liyao was silent, let her hold her arm, and just like that, she went to the Shangzheng Hall where Shenchu Guojun met with the courtiers - I don't know what Yongye did, from the time they walked through the gate of the Shangzheng Palace, to the time they appeared in front of Chu Zhaoxi and the others, none of the guards said anything to stop them.

"It's just for the sake of the overall relationship between Tianqi and Shen Chu, as far as the matter of the wedding banquet snake tide is concerned...... I hope Your Majesty will give a clear answer-"

Although Luo Liyao's words can be regarded as her original intention, in the eyes of others, it is just following the words of Yongye and Chu Yang, and at the same time threatening Chu Zhaoxi with Tianqi, she gave him a step to go down, which can really be called gentle.

Chu Yang only smiled and said nothing more.

When "negotiating" with others, if you accuse and threaten the other party and force the other party into a desperate situation, it will be unfavorable to yourself - it just so happens that what you want to say has been said, and the things that Luo Xizheng ordered him to bring have been brought at night, and the bad guys have already been done by themselves, so it doesn't hurt for the good guys to leave to Luo Liyao to do.

It's just that when did Chu Zhaoxi face such a situation?

His concubine openly ignored Shen Chu's ancestral system and came to the palace, and even brought a princess from another country, isn't this just a clear show that he didn't take him seriously, and even came to challenge his authority?

But Yongye and Luo Liyao's words, Yongjun's persuasion, and the threat from Tianqi brought by Chu Yang ...... One by one, on the surface, it seems that they are forcing Chu Zhaoxi, the emperor, to make him make some kind of choice; In fact, everything they said was justified, and it happened to be the same mystery that had plagued Chu Zhaoxi for a long time.

What was the reason for the sudden snake tide on the night of Chu Lingze's wedding?

After that night, among the people who were bitten by the poisonous snake, only Luo Liyao survived, and the rest directly did not survive, and there were even some ministers who had made many contributions to Shen Chu.

Whether it was for Luo Liyao, who had diplomatic relations between the two countries, or for the courtiers who had dedicated their youth and talents to Shen Chu, Chu Zhaoxi should have thoroughly investigated this matter - but he didn't.

It's not that he doesn't want to investigate thoroughly, and it's not that he hasn't thought about the Shengyu clan who has been banned by all countries in the world, but he doesn't want to believe that there will be people in the palace who will collude with the remnants of the Shengyu clan to make trouble, and he doesn't want to believe that the people around him will be unfavorable to Shen Chu - whether it is the Yong family brothers and sisters who have always been favored by him, or Cao Han, who he has always cared about so much, or Chu Lingze and Chu Lingyuan, who were the most suspicious of not being present that day......

In other words, he would rather simply think that the snake tide that night was just an accident, or a coincidence caused by the remnants of the Shengyu clan who had been planning for a long time and happened to sneak into the palace, rather than believe that any of them could have anything to do with it.

But Yongye and Luo Liyao directly put this matter on the surface, and told the matter in front of everyone, and also made it clear that they wanted an answer - in such a situation, Chu Zhaoxi could no longer calm down and gently expose the matter.

"Princess Zhenli wants a clear answer...... Chu Zhaoxi paused, directly crossed the different costumes of the eternal night, and fell on Luo Liyao's body, and said in a deep voice, "Is it that Tianqi wants a clear answer?" ”

Luo Liyao was a little puzzled when she heard this, and she didn't know why he asked such a question - although she was the princess of Tianqi, she could not represent Tianqi in the strict sense, let alone be equivalent to Tianqi at this time.

But Chu Yang opened her mouth softly when she was puzzled: "Back to Shen Chu's words, it's like this." Our Majesty once said, 'Whatever Princess Zhenli wants, let her do'...... Therefore, His Majesty has the courage to say that the meaning of His Royal Highness Zhenli is the meaning of our Majesty. ”

Luo Liyao lowered her eyes silently: "......"

It's not that she doesn't believe it, because this is what Luo Xizheng would say, but it shouldn't come out of the mouth of a person like Chu Yang - you know, Chu Yang is Ning Zhong's protégé.

Although Ning Zhong and Luo Xizheng are secretly father and son, they are political enemies on the surface. Even if Ning Zhong, the so-called father, is willing to selflessly dedicate himself to his children, he will definitely not have much kindness to Luo Liyao, an "outsider" - after a little thought, you can know that after Zhao Tianyuan's death, with Ning Zhong's hatred for the royal family, not killing Luo Liyao can be regarded as temporarily stopping in the face of Luo Xizheng, let alone helping her.

In other words, it is: Although Chu Yang and she are both people who are Tianqi, they are not the same people who work together at all, it is good not to fight with each other, and they also work together externally?

Luo Liyao didn't know if Chu Yang had this meaning, so she had no choice but to respond to the changes, and chose to be silent for a while to see his intentions.

And Chu Zhaoxi didn't know that the relationship between them was not friendly, but when Yang said this, he once again proved to himself Luo Liyao's status in Tianqi, and combined with the previous sentence "Tianqi Treasure", Chu Zhaoxi suddenly felt a little complicated.

In terms of blood, Luo Liyao is his sister's only daughter and his niece; In terms of intimacy, Luo Liyao's surname is "Luo", which is Tianqi's national surname, not "Chu" of Shen Chu's national surname, and this difference alone can separate their positions.

For Luo Liyao, Chu Zhaoxi could neither ruthlessly classify her as the enemy, nor could he treat her as one of his own without defense.

At this time, it was Luo Liyao who was forcing him to thoroughly investigate the snake tide incident that he wanted to press.

And what's even more terrifying is that Luo Liyao is not the only one, there is also an eternal night by her side.

Chu Zhaoxi frowned, subconsciously feeling that something was wrong, and decided to ask the pillow person he thought he was most familiar with first: "Concubine, what did you mean by what you just said?" How can the matter of the snake tide be compared to the matter of Empress Yuan? ”

"Back to Your Majesty's words......" Yongye bowed deeply and did not look up, as if he did not want people to deduce her true thoughts at this time from her facial expressions at this time, "Although the time of these two events is far apart, they have the most fundamental relationship - the initiator behind them is one person!" ”

Chu Zhaoxi's heart suddenly swelled with some ominous premonitions: "Do you have evidence?" DID YOU KNOW – THERE'S NO SOLID EVIDENCE

So, is it a felony? Plus you still have the crime of trespassing on the palace......"

"Your Majesty." Yongye suddenly raised her head and smiled at him from afar—the smile was her usual coquettish smile, but her words were not her usual gentle words, "Since the moment the concubine stepped into the palace, she has never been lucky, let alone thought that she would go back intact again." ”

Luo Liyao was already standing beside Yongye with her eyes down, and after hearing her words, she looked at her with a slight surprise - her face was calm and firm, and her eyes were full of unknown meaning when she looked at Chu Zhaoxi: there was some absolute imperative, and there was some firm confidence...... But there is no woman who has the love and affection for her husband.

She seemed to have really made up her mind and made an important decision.

And it's a ...... She would rather die for the decision.

Obviously, Chu Zhaoxi's words were reminding her: Let's talk about it after thinking about it, otherwise the consequences are likely to be something you can't afford.

But Eternal Night was not moved at all, and the sentence "I never thought that I would go back intact" directly made him see his determination.

Yongye's words of treating death as if he were at home successfully made everyone look sideways, and also successfully made Chu Zhaoxi's brows frown even tighter - it must be a trivial matter to make Yongye break into the Shangzheng Palace like this, and it is impossible to expose it easily with her posture, and more importantly, this matter must involve the dark side of the royal family.

Or rather, it must be a scandal for the royal family.

As the saying goes, "family scandals should not be publicized", no royal family would be willing to make their scandals public, let alone in such an occasion where all the courtiers and envoys of other countries were present.

Talking openly about such a thing at such a time is tantamount to exposing the dark side of the Shenchu royal family to the public, and publicly executing them in public.

This is also the real reason why Chu Zhaoxi has never wanted to ask according to Luo Liyao's meaning, but in turn threatens Yongye with words to make her give up by herself.

But the firmness of the eternal night was completely beyond his expectations, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't want you to be embarrassed, it's just that if you have always had such sinister and unworthy people around you, you are the most dangerous one." Just as he frowned and pondered how to deal with Eternal Night's words, Eternal Night opened his mouth again, "If you fall into danger, then the entire Shen Chu will fall into danger...... For the sake of Shen Chu's safety, I also ask Your Majesty and you to listen carefully to the next words of the concubine——"
