Chapter Seventy-Two: His Curiosity Was Piqued
Seeing the suspicion and temptation in her eyes for him, his heart was suddenly stinged. He admits that he covets the throne, but promises that she will send troops after the war without any utilitarian intentions, just to fulfill the promise he made when he married her.
But she actually doubted his sincerity, which really made people feel uncomfortable!
The corners of his mouth suddenly hooked up a wicked smile, he picked up her chin with one hand, the fingertips of his thumb lingered on her chin through the white veil, and the strength of his hand increased little by little, and he said word by word: "Assan, do you doubt this king?" ”
"Aren't you worth doubting?" She completely ignored the hidden displeasure in his eyes, and said calmly: "If you don't have other ideas, why do you keep stopping me from going to the border?" ”
This woman who doesn't know what to do.
Has she really been to the border? Does she know how harsh the environment is at the border? Do you think that as long as you have a heart that is not afraid of death, you can be invincible? She thought everything was too simple.
"Assa-san." He put away the evil smile on the corner of his mouth and said seriously: "Do you know what the border looks like? ”
He really stopped her with this question. She had never been to the border, and she didn't know what it looked like.
Seeing that she was silent for a long time, he put his hands on her shoulders, stared at her, and said word by word: "Yanling Country and Bai Shen Country are neighboring countries, and Bai Shen Country and Yu Republic of China are neighboring countries, which means that there is a Bai Shen Kingdom between Yan Ling Country and Yu Republic of China." The border between Yanling Country and Bai Shen Country is a desert, where there is no grass, and you can't see the scene of birds and beasts flocking and flowers blooming. The climate is changeable, and there is a high chance of several types of severe weather such as hail, heavy snow, and sandstorms throughout the day. The strength of the hand that grabbed her shoulder tightened, and he asked, "Asa-san, can you survive if you have never lived in that environment?" ”
So, he obstructed her in every possible way because he was worried that she wouldn't be able to survive at the border?
His starting point is to care about her?
No...... No way.
How is that possible? How could he care about her?
It's that she's thinking too much, it must be.
The shock in his heart gradually calmed down because of reason, and he blinked his eyes subconsciously, and when he looked at him, his eyes were firm and said: "I have never been to the border, but I have experienced the same bad environment as the border, so I believe that I can live at the border." ”
"Have you experienced it?"
"Yes!" She immediately said: "So, Emperor Yan, don't underestimate me, I'm much stronger than you think." With that, he waved away the hand he had placed on her shoulder, and after glancing at him, she pushed open the door and walked out.
He had a moment of nostalgia for her last look, and beyond that, there was a huge curiosity about what she had experienced before she married him.
Immediately, he made a decision.
Qiansang saw Yan Xuanfeng in the living room, and because the conversation between the two was inconvenient for Steward Shen to hear, she looked at Steward Shen and said, "You go and prepare some refreshments." ”
Steward Shen understood what she meant, and said with a slight bow: "Yes, princess." ”
Seeing Steward Shen leaving, she looked at Yan Xuanfeng, then at Wen Ziyu, her eyes fell on Yan Xuanfeng's face, and she said to a long story short: "Your Majesty, after receiving that copy, I plan to enter the palace, but Emperor Yan is very strict with me, and it is really inconvenient for me to enter the palace to meet me." ”
Wen Ziyu said: "The emperor saw that you had not entered the palace in the past few days, so he came to Yanwang's mansion." ”
"Yes." She said: "I'm discussing with Emperor Yan about going to the border, but he hasn't allowed it, and today is a breakthrough." ”
Yan Xuanfeng said: "Qiansang, you have worked hard. ”
"It's nothing, that's what I'm doing." After a pause, he continued: "I must rush to the border as soon as possible, the soldiers of Bai Shenguo and the Yu Republic are already stationed at the border, I have to go to command the battle immediately." ”
Wen Ziyu said: "If you can't withdraw here for the time being, I can go first." ”
"Not necessarily!" His eyes were between him and Yan Xuanfeng, and he said: "The emperor needs you to give advice, you can't leave the emperor, I have to go to the border, so I will definitely find a way to get out." There was confidence in his eyes: "You can rest assured." ”
"Okay." Yan Xuanfeng was relieved for a while, and said: "Xuan Ting has already led his troops to the border, presumably he has already been stationed at the border at this time, and the war is about to break out. With worry in his eyes, he looked at her and said, "Assan, I really didn't expect the war to come so quickly." ”
"Your Majesty, please rest assured, we will win the battle with Bai Shenguo and Yu Minguo!"
There was appreciation in his eyes: "With your help, I am quite relieved." ”
Wen Ziyu felt that there seemed to be eyes outside the door looking into the house, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said cautiously: "This place is not a place to talk, please make it short for the emperor and the military advisor." ”
"Okay." Qiansang said: "The emperor can rest assured, after I get out of the Yanwang Mansion, I will go to the palace first, and then I will leave to go to the border, and if I have anything to say, we will talk about it in detail." ”
Yan Xuanfeng nodded and agreed.
When Steward Shen almost arrived, Yan Xuanfeng and Wen Ziyu had already left. At this time, at the gate, Qiansang watched Yan Xuanfeng's sedan chair disappear at the intersection in front.
With a soft sigh, he turned and entered the door.
The mood is a little heavy, for everything unknown, everyone will be confused and hesitant, but fortunately, she is not half afraid. Leaving the Yanwang Mansion, for her, it is like a bird that has been trapped for a long time to regain its freedom.
In any case, she must persuade Yan Difeng to let him let her go to the border.
"Princess, the master asked you to go to his room."
Hearing this, she subconsciously raised her head, and when she saw that the person in front of her was Mingjin, she was slightly surprised, and then looked at the injuries on his forehead and wrists, and frowned slightly: "Your injury?" ”
"Princess, please go to his room." He repeated it mechanically.
There was a hint of complexity in her eyes, she nodded with him, and said, "Okay, I know, I'll go now." "It's just that what's wrong with his injury? In the entire Yan Wangfu, no one dared to touch him except for Emperor Yanfeng, so his injury was caused by Emperor Yan? But why?
However, because he was scarred at this time, she couldn't bear to let him return the whipping punishment of the iris.
Originally, he left Emperor Yan's room that day, and he wanted to settle accounts with Emperor Yan, but who knew that he didn't ask Steward Shen and didn't ask where he was, so the matter was delayed, and he didn't see him for a few days, but he was so scarred, could it be that Emperor Yan punished Ming Jin instead of her?
If that were the case, the punishment of flogging could have been avoided.
Thinking like this, when she looked up again, she had arrived at the door of Emperor Yan's room, and she raised her hand and knocked on the door.
"Knock knock!"
"Come in!"
Pushing the door in, I subconsciously looked into the house, but I didn't see Yan Difeng sitting at the tea table, and when she was confused, she suddenly felt that her waist was circled, and someone's chin was on her shoulder.
