Volume 2 Sword Qi Chapter 24 The Emperor's Ambition
Yang Xiaotian slapped Li Muwen lightly, and stood aside with his hands behind his back.
Li Muwen woke up slowly, as if he had a dream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw Yang Xiaotian, he jumped up in fright, and shouted, "Who are you?"
Yang Xiaotian pointed at Princess Danyang and said, "Don't pay attention to who I am, let's see who this person is first!"
Only then did Li Muwen discover Princess Danyang, and hurriedly knelt down and shouted, "Li Muwen visits the princess." ”
Princess Danyang didn't speak, just looked at him quietly, and looked at Li Muwen until she felt furious, and then said, "Get up, General Li!"
Li Muwen stood up and stood aside, this nine-rank peak martial artist who had experienced a hundred battles, was apprehensive and hesitant, not knowing how much Princess Danyang knew.
Princess Danyang looked at Li Muwen coldly and said, "General Li, do you have anything to say?"
Li Muwen's eyes rolled, and he pretended to be confused: "I don't know what the princess wants me to say?"
Princess Danyang saw that he was cheating, but she didn't know what to do for a while, and looked at Yang Xiaotian for help.
Yang Xiaotian shouted loudly, like a thunderbolt sounding in Li Muwen's ears on a sunny day, and said, "Li Muwen, why did you plot to slaughter the Heqin team, why did you murder Princess Danyang." ”
Li Muwen's hands trembled slightly, and he defended: "This young man, you can't spew blood, and the one who plotted to slaughter the Heqin team and Princess Danyang is obviously from Nanzhaoguo, so you can't frame it on me." ”
Yang Xiaotian said: "The entire affinity team was slaughtered, why did you appear in the Armor Breaking City unharmed?"
Li Muwen said: "I saw that the princess was rescued, and we were outnumbered, so I quickly escaped from the siege and rushed to the broken armor city for help." ”
"Nonsense!" Yang Xiaotian shouted, "According to the two surviving soldiers, you were captured by the enemy at that time, how can you say that you fought your way out of the encirclement?"
Li Muwen hurriedly defended: "I was indeed captured by Nanzhaoguo, but fortunately, General Wu Zhongtian Wu led his troops to rescue me from the enemy. ”
Yang Xiaotian's face turned cold, and he said: "There are many loopholes, it was clearly said that you fought your way out of the encirclement by yourself, and now it is said that Wu Zhongtian rescued you from the enemy." ”
Li Muwen's eyes didn't dare to look at Yang Xiaotian, and he flickered: "Being captured and becoming a captive is never a long-faced thing, I am afraid that I will lose face in front of the princess so I lie that I am fighting my way out of the encirclement." ”
Yang Xiaotian retorted: "Then why did Wu Zhongtian save you so coincidentally, could it be that Wu Zhongtian was an unpredictable prophet, and you would be captured by Nanzhao Kingdom, so he rushed to the territory of Nanzhao Kingdom to rescue you?"
"This ...... This ......" Li Muwen was stunned by the question, not knowing how to answer.
Yang Xiaotian didn't want to listen to his nonsense anymore, and shouted: "Li Muwen, we already know what you and that Wu Zhongtian did, you pretended to be the army of Nanzhao to slaughter and pro-team, and also killed the two soldiers sent by Princess Danyang to deliver letters to Broken Armor City, one by one, Princess Danyang and I are all clear." If you want to live, you don't have to come from the truth. ”
Li Muwen saw that what Yang Xiaotian said was serious, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes, and he was frightened for a moment, thinking that everything had been completely revealed.
Yang Xiaotian said slowly: "General Li, hurry up and tell me everything you know, I can also plead with Princess Danyang and spare your life!"
Li Muwen settled down, and secretly calculated in his heart: although he did slaughter the Heqin team with Wu Zhongtian, in the final analysis, this was not his own idea, he was just acting on orders, not to mention that this was the idea of the person above, to put it bluntly, it was the matter between their father and daughter, what does it have to do with him?
After thinking about this section, Li Muwen was no longer flustered, looked at Princess Danyang and said calmly: "The princess really wants me to tell the whole thing?"
Princess Danyang said angrily: "Hurry up!"
Li Muwen pretended to be mysterious and said: "The princess doesn't have to regret it!"
Princess Danyang was stunned, and said in a cold voice: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up!"
Li Muwen cleared his throat and said slowly: "This matter is actually very simple, because all this is arranged by His Majesty the Emperor, and General Wu and I are just acting on orders. ”
Although Princess Danyang had long suspected that all this was related to the emperor, her body was still shaky and shaky at first glance, and she didn't want to believe that all this was true.
Liu Feiyi hurriedly supported her and said, "Princess, be careful!"
Princess Danyang relieved herself and continued to ask, "Father arranged for you to kill me too?"
Li Muwen said: "That's not true, Your Majesty just let us arrest the princess and imprison her first, and then release the princess after the matter is completed." ”
Princess Danyang felt a little better when she heard that the emperor did not let Li Muwen and them kill her, but she gritted her teeth and did not speak.
Yang Xiaotian said curiously: "Why did your emperor slaughter the peace team?"
Li Muwen regained his feminine aura, and said with a sympathetic smile: "This is going to ask Princess Danyang." ”
Yang Xiaotian couldn't see his face, so he slapped him in the face with his backhand, making his cheeks as red as pig liver, and scolded: "I am asking you for a question, but you want me to ask Princess Danyang." ”
Li Muwen saw that Yang Xiaotian was a ruthless character, and he covered his swollen and aching cheeks and didn't dare to reply.
Princess Danyang's face was full of doubts, and she said, "Why are you asking me, I don't know anything about this matter. ”
Li Muwen was afraid that the young man would slap him again and took two steps back before saying, "Your Royal Highness Princess, you have been deeply favored by His Majesty the Emperor since you were a child, didn't Your Majesty tell you about his grand wishes?"
"Did!"
Looking at the puzzled Yang Xiaotian, Princess Danyang explained: "Brother Yang, my father has a big ambition, what he wants is peace in the world, there will be no more wars in the world, and everyone can live and work in peace and contentment. ”
Yang Xiaotian smiled and said: "This is a good thing, I can't imagine that your father is still a good emperor with great ideals." ”
"That's not right!" the young man thought for a moment and looked at Li Muwen and asked, "What does it have to do with such a great ambition and his arrangement for you to slaughter and pro-team?"
Seeing Yang Xiaotian's question, Li Muwen didn't dare to talk about him anymore, and explained respectfully: "Your Majesty said that it is impossible for countries to coexist peacefully all the time, and there will definitely be wars after getting along for a long time. ”
Yang Xiaotian sneered and laughed: "Let the whole world be unified, this emperor's ambition is quite big, the question is whether he has such ability?"
Li Muwen straightened his waist and said in a hurry: "His Majesty the Emperor's ability is beyond doubt, in the entire Zhaoyang Continent, there is no one before or after. His Majesty himself is a peak powerhouse of the Thirteen Realms, with 400,000 Zhenbei Army, 300,000 Zhennan Army, and 2,000 Xuanjia Iron Cavalry under his command who are known to be able to kill below the Immortal Realm, and there are countless capable people under him. ”
Yang Xiaotian knew in his heart that this emperor was a peak powerhouse of the Thirteen Realms, and he was a figure who could stand side by side with the heads of any sect in the Jiuzhou Continent, so it was no wonder that he would have the great ideal of dominating the world.
Seeing that Li Muwen had been talking for a long time, he still didn't say why Emperor Ningguo wanted to arrange for him and Wu Zhongtian to slaughter the peace team, so he said: "General Li, you still tell me why the emperor let you slaughter the peace team!"
Li Muwen was about to speak, but Princess Danyang said: "Big brother, I already understand my father's thoughts. Father Emperor wants to make a continent a country and be the lord of a continent, and then let Jiuzhou become a country and be the co-master of Jiuzhou. Father still wants to be a wise man through the ages, and he doesn't want future generations to leave a little flaw when he inks on him. If he wants the world to be unified, he must destroy other countries, and if he wants to destroy other countries, he must be famous. Massacre the Heqin team and place the blame on Nanzhaoguo, then there will be a good reason to start a war, and there will be no infamy. ”
Yang Xiaotian suddenly said: "This emperor has an idea, to say something unpleasant, sister don't be surprised, that is, to be a bitch and build an archway!"
Princess Danyang's face was red, and she couldn't refute anything, because what Yang Xiaotian said was indeed the truth.
Li Muwen shouted loudly: "Bold, you dare to insult His Majesty the Emperor." ”
Yang Xiaotian disagreed, laughed and said: "You are afraid of your emperor, but I am not afraid at all, I won't tell you, I still want to rush into the palace and reason with your emperor, but I have to sacrifice the lives of innocent people for my own thoughts, what else do you want to do like this!"
Li Muwen's face was hideous, his teeth and claws were dancing, and he wanted to continue to argue, but Yang Xiaotian raised his hand and slapped him in the face again.
"Sister, what are you going to do with Li Muwen?" the young man asked.
Princess Danyang hesitated for a moment and said, "Forget it, let him go!"
Yang Xiaotian said to Li Muwen, who was struggling to stand up: "For the princess's sake, hurry up and get out, remember to go back to the imperial city and tell you the emperor, I will go to him!"
Li Muwen staggered forward as if he was about to be amnestied.
"Wait!" Yang Xiaotian shouted.
Li Muwen thought that the young man had changed his mind, and when he was sweating like rain, he didn't go or not.
Who knew that the young man laughed and said, "Remember to tell him that my name is Yang Xiaotian." ”
Li Muwen didn't dare to stop any longer, and walked two steps at a time, eager to put his wings on his back, and ran dozens of feet away in the blink of an eye.
Yang Xiaotian no longer paid attention to Li Muwen, looked at Princess Danyang and asked, "Sister, the whole thing has come to light." What are you going to do next?"
Princess Danyang is the six gods and no master, I don't know what to do, do you really want to go back to the imperial city to ask her father and the emperor if it is okay?
Yang Xiaotian didn't force her, and said softly: "Sister, why don't we go to Nanzhao Kingdom first, and see the customs and scenery of Nanzhao Kingdom, I guess you haven't been to a foreign country in the deep palace." ”
Princess Danyang didn't say yes or no, but just asked, "Big brother, what you just said about going to the imperial city to find my father's theory is true?"
The corners of Yang Xiaotian's mouth lifted and he laughed softly: "Then there is still a fake?"
Princess Danyang said worriedly: "Big brother, I think it's better to forget it! My father is the peak powerhouse of the Thirteen Realms, and if you go, I'm afraid that there will be no return!"
Yang Xiaotian laughed and said arrogantly: "Big husband, do something and don't do something, as long as it's right, although tens of millions of people will go to me!"
Princess Danyang wanted to continue to persuade Yang Xiaotian, but the young man took her palm, held Liu Feiyi with his left hand, and shouted loudly: "Nanzhaoguo, we are here!"
