Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Emperor's Mind
After making a decision, Chen walked into a shop and bought a map of the north of the Panning Kingdom, he especially emphasized the need to mark the map with the three city gates, the boss didn't ask much, and found a brown skin scroll map for Chen Tian, although the map looked tattered, but the markings in it were very clear.
After Chen Tian checked that there was no problem, he paid the money and left with the map, and he did not stay in the city too long, but rushed to follow a gate marked on the map.
……
Involving the empire, there is a huge palace in the center of a prosperous capital that spreads for thousands of miles, the palace is majestic and domineering, the dim sky makes the palace have a stronger sense of oppression, and a powerful and powerful obscure aura comes from all corners, making the whole palace appear more mysterious and dangerous.
In the main hall in the palace, a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe sat on the dragon chair on the high position, and a young man stood respectfully under the main hall.
At this time, the middle-aged man sitting on the dragon chair spoke: "Yi'er, what are your plans for tomorrow?" ”
Standing respectfully in the main hall, Shi Junyi said softly: "Everything is arranged by my father!" ”
The middle-aged man spoke again: "What do you think of the princess of the Panning Kingdom?" ”
Shi Junyi chuckled and said, "Father, don't worry, I just regard her as a plaything, and I will never really be tempted." ”
"Haha! You have this consciousness and you are very relieved to be a father, you must know that marrying the Panning Kingdom is only the first step to annex them, you must not really take the initiative to be sincere to the Panning Kingdom, so as to break the plan of becoming a father. ”
Shi Junyi bent down and said respectfully: "The child knows! ”
The middle-aged man nodded, and continued: "The Panning Kingdom is now in a difficult situation of being attacked on its back, this is a great opportunity for me to get involved in the empire, once the Panning Kingdom is annexed, our country's comprehensive strength will be among the top thirty, and in three years, the Eastern Dabi will also have a place for my empire." ”
Speaking of this, the middle-aged man's eyes were blazing, as if he had seen the great future of the empire, and imagined the magnificent scene of the empire soaring into the sky.
Even Shi Junyi, who was standing in the main hall, also had blazing eyes, and the four words of Eastern Dabi had been whispered in his ears since he was a child, although he didn't know what Eastern Dabi was, but he knew that once there was a place above Eastern Dabi, it would mean that the Shi Empire could soar into the sky and get rid of the embarrassing situation of not being up or down.
The middle-aged man's fiery gaze quickly disappeared, and he said indifferently: "Yi'er, tomorrow I will send four people from Tiangang and Earth to accompany you, and I will secretly send Shi Geng to deal with emergencies, although this marriage is just a pawn for me, but I can't make any mistakes, but I must not fall into the face of the empire." ”
Shi Junyi bowed and said, "Thank you, father, the child will not let this happen." ”
The middle-aged man nodded, the four Tiangang and Earth Demons he sent were all masters of the Fifth Realm of the Imperial Sword Realm, and there was also Shi Geng, a peerless master of the Human Sword Separation Realm, presumably even if other countries wanted to make trouble secretly, they would have to weigh it.
"Okay, you go down and get ready, and you'll leave early tomorrow morning." The middle-aged man waved his hand and said.
Shi Junyi bent back and exited the main hall before straightening up and leaving.
……
In the dungeon in the palace of the Panning Kingdom, Kan Jie sat cross-legged on the dark and damp ground, seemingly calm, but in fact he was anxious, calculating that the time tomorrow is the deadline of January, she has learned from the previous allegiance to one of her generals that she has learned of the agreement between Shi Junyi and her father, and the deadline is coming, but she can't get out, let alone save her sister from danger, and the thought of her favorite sister since childhood is about to fall into a situation from which she will never recover, her heart is a pang.
Just when she frowned, there was a sound of the door opening outside the dungeon, and then she saw Emperor Panning striding over, he did not enter the dungeon where Kan Jie was imprisoned, and stood outside the dungeon in silence for a while before saying: "Jie'er, you have suffered for a month, and I promise my father that I can release you in three days at most, and you will still be restored to your position as a general, and you can still lead the army to kill the enemy." ”
Kan Jie looked expressionlessly at Emperor Panning outside the dungeon, who was also his biological father, and said with a sneer: "Go into battle to kill the enemy? It's ridiculous, I can't even protect my closest sister, what's the use of me going into battle to kill the enemy? Isn't it possible to become a cold-blooded and ruthless person like you? ”
Emperor Panning's face changed, but he still tried his best to be as pleasant as possible and said: "Jie'er, I know that you hate being a father, but you must know that I am doing this for the tens of millions of people in the Panning Kingdom. I don't think there's anything wrong with sacrificing Kan..., sacrificing Yue'er alone to protect tens of millions of people in the Panning Kingdom. ”
"What a high-sounding reason, in order to please the empire, even your own daughter can be given up at will, what else can't you do." Kan Jie didn't give a good face at all, and said to each other.
Emperor Panning's face changed again and again, and finally he could no longer disguise, and said angrily directly: "Kan Jie, for the sake of your father's kind words and persuasion, but you are pressing step by step, do you really want to make a discord between father and daughter?" ”
Kan Jie simply turned his head away and said indifferently: "Have you regarded me and Yue'er as daughters from beginning to end?" We are just one of your pawns, if I hadn't shown a strong leadership talent since I was a child, I'm afraid my current fate would not be much different from Yue'er! ”
Emperor Panning's face was extremely ugly, and he flicked his sleeve robe and turned to leave, and as the door of the dungeon closed, the dungeon fell silent again.
In Kan Yue's courtyard, she was standing in the room at this time, staring blankly at the bright moon in the sky that was gradually disappearing into the clouds, and as the clouds continued to gather, the bright moon finally disappeared.
Looking at the drowsy sky, Kan Yue's face, which had not been smiling for a long time, showed a smile, and muttered: "Chen Tian, I will come to accompany you tomorrow, I hope you haven't gone far, I can still find you, you must be very lonely now!" ”
When she said this, she quietly glanced back at the two maids behind her, and after seeing that they did not react, she looked at the dark sky again, and said to herself: "It's just that my sister is tired, I hope that person can treat my sister well after I leave, after all, my sister is her general, and she can't lose it easily." ”
Then she slowly closed her eyes, recalling the bits and pieces of this life, and finally fixed on the day she met Chen Tian, when he called her Miss Kan Yue, and wanted to hear him call herself 'Miss Kan Yue' again, but there was no chance again.
