Inside the Imperial City.

Su Qi'an followed the chamberlain all the way and walked towards the interior of the palace, and this time the place they went to was not the council hall, but Su Xuanyong's bedroom.

This is the core place in the entire imperial city, and in normal times, even if it is a first-class national prince, it is forbidden to enter it without being summoned.

As you walk into the interior of the imperial city, you can see the forbidden troops on both sides of the sub-station along the way.

These forbidden troops are different from what Su Qi'an saw in Tongguan, they are real elites, and their strength is definitely beyond the new army he trained.

But their number is not very large, roughly estimated to be only a few hundred.

But it is these hundreds of people who are the backbone of protecting the Daliang royal family.

Being able to be summoned in the emperor's bedroom is enough to show that Su Xuanyong attaches great importance to him.

Not to mention Su Qi'an, the entire group of powerful people staying in the imperial city, they are all waiting, how to deal with this matter in the end.

Under the leadership of the chamberlain, Su Qi'an came to a huge palace that was quite magnificent.

Standing at the door of the hall, after an extremely strict body search, and waiting for a while, Su Qi'an was allowed to enter.

Stepping into the palace, what catches your eye is a high platform, which is made of fine golden silk nanmu, and on the high platform is a golden plan, Su Xuanyong is sitting behind the plan.

All around, it was empty, only four huge coiling dragon pillars were standing, and on the vermilion pillars, there were five-clawed golden dragons, which looked very majestic.

At the back of the high platform, there should be a passage, and behind the passage is Su Xuanyong's bedroom.

It's just that Su Qi'an didn't observe this, after all, above him, but the Great Liang Emperor, his eyes can't be swept around.

The first time he stepped into the palace, Su Qi'an saluted Su Xuanyong respectfully.

"Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live your Majesty."

"Huh, hooray? When did Higashiyama Bo become so disciplined, he was under the walls of Kyoto before, but no one paid attention to him."

As soon as Su Qi'an's words fell, Su Xuanyong said directly.

Su Qi'an's face was calm, and he hurriedly said, "Back to Your Majesty, the matter of the Kyoto City Wall, the minister is enforcing military law, as the commander-in-chief of this war, no matter who he is, he must punish the military law in accordance with the military law, and this right should be thought of when His Majesty grants the post of commander-in-chief to the minister."

"Hmph, Uncle Dongshan, you are really sharp-tongued, the widow didn't say anything, you are so tough, I really don't know who you learned from, you get up and talk back first."

Su Xuanyong pursed his lips and looked at Su Qi'an, with a completely helpless expression.

Su Qi'an got up, and Su Xuanyong continued, "The commander-in-chief does have the position of cutting first and then playing, but the widow also sent a prison army, but this prison army disappointed the widow too much, and he became a traitor, which is really hateful."

"It's okay to die a Wang Xian, but you killed Zheng Liang and the others, and you shot them in front of you, even if you are in accordance with military law, but you make the widow very embarrassed."

Su Qi'an nodded and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is indeed a bit abrupt for the minister, but if there is a chance to do it again, the minister will still do it."

"In the defense of Kyoto, there is no room for negligence, Zheng Liang and the three of them have seriously violated military regulations, and if they don't kill them, they can't give an explanation to the front-line soldiers."

"If Your Majesty feels embarrassed, you can hand over your ministers, and this matter should be over."

Seeing Su Qi'an's sincere question, Su Xuanyong directly slapped the plan and said angrily.

"What nonsense are you talking about, you are also a child of the royal family, I really handed you over, do you want to see the widow being laughed at by the world? Let the widow chill the hearts of the front-line soldiers?"

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister definitely doesn't mean that." Su Qi'an hurriedly said.

Su Xuanyong glanced at Su Qi'an, did not speak, but remained silent.

From the conversation between the two sides just now, Su Xuanyong already felt that Su Qi'an's attitude was resolute.

He is a royal family, having said that, if Su Qi'an has nothing to do, he will not be able to explain to these powerful families in Kyoto.

Even if he is the emperor, he has to balance and unite Beijing

All people, only in this way will Kyoto not be chaotic.

After being silent for a while, Su Xuanyong's face returned to calm, looked at Su Qi'an seriously, and spoke.

"Qi An, your talent, the widow has seen it, this time in the defense of Kyoto, you fought well, if there are no accidents, the marquis is a certainty."

"But your royal status is what the widow values the most."

"Qi An, the widow gives you a choice, if you can stay with the widow and be loyal to the royal family, the widow can give you a piece of disclosure."

Speaking of now, Su Xuanyong can be regarded as saying what is in his heart.

He valued Su Qi'an very much, especially through this battle of Kyoto, which made him feel that this person's talent was unique in Daliang.

And he is also a child of the royal family, which is the reason why Su Xuanyong is a little partial to Su Qi'an's disputes in Kyoto again and again.

But he can also see that Su Qi'an's heart is actually a little hesitant to be loyal to the royal family.

His resume along the way, Su Xuanyong has investigated very clearly, and he has relied on himself all the way, and he has never been a bit powerful.

This made Su Xuanyong more satisfied, but in the same way, Su Qi'an went all the way, and he was too close to the low-level poor family and martial arts, giving people a natural disgust with the powerful of the family.

This is not a good thing, after all, in the future, if Su Qi'an wants to use it for himself, the path he will take is destined to be the upper magnates, as for these civilians at the bottom, Su Xuanyong does not value it.

And it happened that Su Qi'an shot Zheng Liang and others, and this matter was a troublemaker, if it was not handled well, Su Qi'an's life would be in danger.

Now with this incident, Su Xuanyong can just negotiate conditions with Su Qi'an.

With Su Qi'an's intelligence, he should know how to choose.

Seeing that Su Qi'an was silent, Su Xuanyong did not urge anxiously, but gave him enough time to think.

This choice, if it were someone else, I am afraid that without hesitation, I will agree.

After all, it is the supreme emperor of Da Liang who is opening in front of him, as long as he agrees to follow, he will be the real career in the future, and the scenery will be infinite.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is under one person and above ten thousand.

Such a temptation condition, but unfortunately, Su Qi'an is not someone else, he shook his head and refused directly.

The career is flat and the rights are unlimited, which seems to be very beautiful, but Su Qi'an is not stupid, this is a price.

If nothing else, let's just say that the reinforcements from various states, why they are so obedient and obedient, it is not because Su Xuanyong's hands control the families of these generals.

The family is serving as a hostage in Kyoto, who dares to act rashly?

And once Su Qi'an belongs, the price of allegiance is afraid that it will not be far from ten, and he will send all his relatives who are far away in Xizhou to Kyoto.

As for deception, a delaying tactic, it is even more nonsense, Su Xuanyong has been the emperor for so many years, and the emperor's mental tricks are better than anyone else.

Dare to play Xiao Jiujiu in front of him, it is really a class axe, rather than this, it is better to simply have a showdown.

Su Qi'an's refusal was unexpected by Su Xuanyong, his eyes flashed, he looked at Su Qi'an seriously, and said coldly, "Qi'an, you really don't regret it? Do you know that if you reject the good intentions of the widow, then the widow will not be able to do the good thing?"

Su Qi'an nodded solemnly, looked at Su Xuanyong and said, "The minister is grateful for Your Majesty's love, but the minister is a grass people, and he was able to rely on his own talent to go to Kyoto, which won His Majesty's pity, and the minister is grateful."

"But the minister is still used to being unrestrained alone, there are too many rules in Kyoto, there is no need for Your Majesty to be embarrassed about this matter, Zheng Guogong wants to kill me, let them come, after all, life and death have a fate, wealth is in the sky, and a big deal is worth a life."

"If nothing happens, the minister will retire."

Su Qi'an said very decisively, and there was a little indifference on his face, and he turned around and left after speaking, without the slightest intention of staying.

Su Xuanyong, who watched this scene, had a complicated gaze, putting aside his position, as far as Su Qi'an's bloodiness was concerned, he was indeed worthy of the identity of a child of the royal family.

Seeing that Su Qi'an was about to leave the palace, Su Xuanyong stopped at this time

He.

"Qi An, you wait first."

Su Qi'an's footsteps froze, he didn't look back, and stood in place.

"Since you have made this choice, the widow will not embarrass you, you have blood, the widow admires, rest assured, your feudal lord, the widow will give it to you."

"Moreover, the widow can assure you that you will be safe for a day in Kyoto, and the widow also wants to see if you can surprise the widow when you leave Kyoto and travel the world."

Su Qi'an turned around and bowed respectfully to Su Xuanyong, "Minister, thank you, Your Majesty."

Su Qi'an can see that Su Xuanyong values himself very much, after all, Su Xuanyong can rely on his supreme right to keep Su Qi'an.

But he didn't do this, but respected Su Qi'an's choice and guaranteed Su Qi'an's safety in Kyoto.

And in the words, Su Qi'an was reminded that since he was leaving, he would leave as soon as possible.

Only when he leaves Kyoto can Su Qi'an be truly safe, as for what will happen to him on the road after leaving Kyoto, it depends on whether Su Qi'an has the ability to turn the danger into a disaster.

Su Qi'an got up and was about to say goodbye and leave, but at this time, Su Xuanyong said suddenly.

"Qi An, do you think the widow is a faint king?"

As soon as these words came out, Su Qi'an was a little stunned, and he just wanted to speak subconsciously, but was interrupted by Su Xuanyong.

"The widow shall hear the words of thy heart."

Su Qi'an looked at Su Xuanyong on the high platform, was silent for a while, and said softly.

"In the eyes of the ministers, Your Majesty is not a faint monarch, when Your Majesty was young, he should also want to do something, but because of some changes, His Majesty was hit and addicted to the emperor's art and couldn't extricate himself."

Su Qi'an's words made Su Xuanyong laugh, "Hehe, only you dare to accuse the widow so bluntly."

"Don't dare."

Su Xuanyong waved his hand and chuckled, "It's okay, the widow doesn't blame you, it's right to talk between you and me."

"There is one more thing about the widow, I want to hear your opinion, do you think among the many princes of the widow, who can inherit the widow's throne?"

If what Su Xuanyong said before was a joke, then this sentence suddenly made Su Qi'an count down.

After all, the position of the prince has always been a taboo in the royal family, and the last thing Su Qi'an wants to talk about in the face of Su Xuanyong is this topic, one is not good, that is, the head falls.
