Chapter 768: Flying away? Dreaming!

I don’t know if it was because Chen Wuliang said it or because Yue Qianqiu suggested meeting the fat man’s accompanying guard first. In short, the emperor really delayed until the next day before he met the Twelve Princesses.

He had never seen the Northern Yan Jinzhi and the jade leaves who ran to Jinling thousands of miles after Yue Qianqiu. However, after placing the person on Ren Guiyi's side of Jingfu Palace, he still looked at him from a distance. Now after seeing him again for several months, he found that the person had changed a lot at a glance.

Although her appearance is still pretty and her body is not much higher, the Twelve Princess standing there is completely different from the girl who was once willful and willful and almost able to fight with the little fat man, with an unexplained aura.

Thinking of the strange will of Emperor Beiyan, the emperor glanced at the absent-minded little fat man next to him. Thinking of what Old Master Yue said in the letter that his fat son and the twelve princess had broken up, he couldn't help but smile.

However, even when the two countries were equal, he never thought of marrying a Princess of Beiyan to his only son, and he would not do so now. Therefore, after the Twelve Princesses had a skillful visit to him, he said bluntly: "This time Emperor Yan invaded Bazhou and died in the battlefield. I just want to ask, what is Beiyan going to do with this matter?"

The Twelve Princess had already expected the emperor's opening remark, but she was still feeling heavy because of the condescending words. She took a deep breath and finally said word by word: "The father has paid the price for his arrogance, and the sixth brother has also paid his life for his stupidity. Many people have died in my Dayan, and the country's power is not as good as before. Since that's the case..."

She paused and suddenly raised her voice: "Since that's the case, if His Majesty the Emperor is too threatening and the army is approaching, then those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, Da Yan will have a hero who rises up."

"I believe what you said." The emperor was not moved at all, and said in a cold tone, "But if the hero rises up, then there may be nothing that happened to your third brother. I guess Emperor Yan took the risk of passing the throne to your daughter because he felt that Prince Yan was not capable enough. Of course, you can also insist that this was just a trick."

Seeing the Twelve Princess's face suddenly turned dead, the emperor slowed down his tone: "The princess has something to say, so why not just say it, don't use this tone of burning boats to gain a temporary advantage."

"Although you have a high status, the Beiyan is no longer the Beiyan, who can make a decision based on your background. It is still unknown whether the Prince of Yan escorts Emperor Yan's coffin back to Nanjing. Even if you show full momentum, it will still be useless. You must know that even if Lin Xiangru sent Qin in the past, the back is because of the support of Lian Po's Zhao State."

"I know the intentions of your brother and sister. One is in Nanjing, Beiyan, trying to gather heroes and gain a foothold. The other comes to my Dawu, hoping to feed the tiger with one's body, and then block my Dawu lion. In fact, the most suitable person to come to the peace talks is Prince Yan, because his foundation in Beiyan is not enough to gain a foothold. You stay there and together with your mother tribe, at least you can barely defend Nanjing. But you have your brother and sister changed your position. When you came to Daming Mansion, he returned to Nanjing. How dare you ask why?"

Before the twelve princess answered, the emperor smiled and said, "You probably think it's not because of Emperor Yan's will. After all, Yue Xiang sent someone to send a message back urgently, saying that Prince Yan almost sought death after saying something to you. Since he had even had ambition to die, there seems to be no grudge against Emperor Yan's choice you over him when he died. In this case, do you want to make such a tough attitude in front of me? Or do you want to establish the impression of the royal family's unyielding in front of the Yan people, or for something else?"

The twelfth princess's originally deliberately raised her aura was completely wiped out by the emperor's words. Except for the time she was caught by Yueying, and before the brother and sister parted, the third prince once again made a heart to her, hoping that she would find someone to marry in Nanwu with peace of mind. Whether it was Yue Qianqiu or others, it was better than being the target of public criticism when she went back.

"Even if you stay in Nanwu, even if the emperor's will, Emperor Wu will launch you or your future child as a puppet because of that father's will, it will be better than in those chaotic times, where heroes from all sides question you, the empress, and we will all die at their hands. You might as well stand tough in Nanwu, so that they can also make them afraid of the rats and set up a good image in the minds of the people of Dayan. As for me, whether it is cedes land or compensation, I will come forward to agree to the conditions of Nanwu."

"Anyway, I, as a prince, cannot be said to be a prestige. If you can take the blame when you die, you will not live in vain in this life. If you choose a better man to marry, you will be able to inherit the Ji family's incense in the future."

Thinking about these things before, the Twelve Princess was silent for a long time, and finally pulled off the veil that pretended to be strong just now and said word by word: "Why would you ask His Majesty the Emperor, what do you want?"

The emperor said in an understatement: "Return the Yanyun prefectures that were thrown away by Emperor You in the late Wei Dynasty. In addition, 200,000 yuan a year."

Faced with these two simple conditions, the twelve princesses angrily brows and shouted: "Impossible!"

"I know that 200,000 yuan of annual monies are just a drop in the bucket for Beiyan, but the Emperor of Northern Yan won the Yan place to dominate. Therefore, despite the fact that Yan's national name has been used more than once, it is still used as a national name. If it is really lost to Yanyun's states, Prince Yan will have no face to face his ancestors in the future. But the princess might as well wait and see if Brother Ling can defend the Nanjing City of Northern Yan!"

"Since he cannot keep this ancestral land, wouldn't it be just right to use such a piece of land to exchange for what he needs from me?

Speaking of this, the emperor gently patted the handrail and said, "I have said this, the princess might as well go back and think about it carefully. I have no intention of keeping you there. If Da Wu wants to attack, there is no need for a puppet of the Northern Yan royal family. Moreover, I will not only send you back, but also make the will of Emperor Yan public."

"Of course, once the will is made public, will Prince Yan, whom you trust now, really have such an attitude of no grudge against you? He personally brought someone to escort the coffin back, but will he blame the guards who had been with Emperor Yan before his death for the death of Emperor Yan? As long as someone dies, he says that the will is fake, it will be easy."

"He and you were just extremely estranged brothers and sisters. Before, you returned to Beiyan together. You worked hard to help him seize the position of prince, but that was just an alliance of interests, and it was not really a matter of love. Even after the ceremony of enthroning the prince, you shared the joys and sorrows, but if you think about it, are you really deeply in love? He asked you to come to Dawu, do you really have a kind heart to protect you?"

This last sentence was like a bolt from the blue for the Twelve Princess, so that when she walked out of the house in a daze, she almost staggered and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Chen Wuliang, who was guarding the door, reached out and held her hand, and she did not fall.

Disturbed, she quickly broke free from Chen Wuliang's hand. When she straightened her waist, she saw a expressionless person strode in at the gate of the yard. She opened her mouth to speak, but when she thought of the conflict she had in Bazhou Prefecture, she finally fell silent. She walked slowly towards the other party and found that when she passed by, the person didn't say a word. She couldn't help but turn around and scream.

"Brother Chang Gong, can't you really help Da Yan in the end?"

"The big Yan is full of madman, I can't do anything!" Yue Xiaosi said a hard sentence, then turned his head and looked at Chen Wuliang, and actually pushed open the door. Before crossing the threshold and going into the emperor, he said without looking back, "Since I haven't promised you, I will naturally not go to any other wise master... I said that my lifelong diligence has been used up on Emperor Yan!"

Seeing that Yue Xiaosi had finished saying this, he threw it hard on the door, then strode to him, with a rebellious face. The emperor couldn't help but think of Yue Qianqiu, who had always been in front of him, who did his own way. If he hadn't known that these two people were definitely not biological father and son, he would almost have thought that the two people were carved from the same mold!

Chen Wuliang whispered to comfort the Twelve Princess and sent someone out. The emperor took advantage of the brief moment to adjust his mood. However, what he unexpectedly expected was that before he could think about how to speak, it was Yue Xiaosi who said before him.

"I still remember what the emperor praised my young man Zhigao back then. When I ran away from home, I was actually holding my energy and felt that the lifeless place like Jinling was boring, so I wanted to go out and explore a career. The point where I finally reached this point is mostly luck, not that I really have the ability to go to heaven and earth."

Yue Xiaosi suddenly raised his voice: "But my greatest luck in my life is not that I once became the Green Forest Bandit whom the Emperor of Beiyan was wanted, nor that I became the Prince of Lanling in Beiyan Fuyao, but that I married Ping An! I pity her when she was born sick and later she lost her mother early and didn't even have a decent title. But after knowing my origin, I was willing to leave my country and return to Yue's family!"

The emperor looked at Yue Xiaosi who had completely exploded. After seeing someone, he sat down cross-legged. He sighed and said, "What do you mean? I thought that after I got an evil fire to me, I could get a job with your wife when I went back?"

"No, I can't get a job with her." Yue Xiaosi smiled bitterly, then lowered his head and said, "Also, I had a fight with my father before I realized that I thought I had a plan and sent Liu Jingxuan and Dai Jinglan back, but I almost caused a huge disaster. If it weren't for good luck, I wouldn't have the shame to come back this time. Since I made such a big mistake, I don't want to go back to Jinling again."

The emperor's eyes suddenly turned: "What do you want to say?"

Yue Xiaosi supported the ground with his hands and changed from sitting cross-legged to kneeling: "I would like to ask the emperor to allow me to take my wife and children to leave Jinling City."

"Now everyone in Jinling City knows that your wife is my daughter. Where do you want to take her?" Before Yue Xiaosi continued to say anything, the emperor asked again, "As for your little daughter, Nuonuo, it's fine. Could it be that the wife and children you just mentioned include Qianqiu?"

Yue Xiaosi was silent, but from his silent attitude, the emperor still came up with a positive answer, and immediately said with a pale expression: "Don't think about it, want to fly far away? Dreaming! There is no door! Yue Xiang sighed behind his back and worried about you. Since you have retired now, then go back and do your filial piety!"

"As for your wife, since I have made a rumor in Jinling that she is my daughter, even if she has not accepted the title of princess, I will not be able to rely on the debt. Anyway, my children have her, they will naturally not be missing her and you. Even Silang will treat her as a sister. Anyway, you don't have the name of a princess, and you like to be an official. If you don't want to do it, you will continue to be idle. I won't force you!"

"But Qianqiu is Qianqiu! He has never taken a wrong step because of his life experience. Naturally, I will not treat him because of his confusing life experience. I am not afraid to tell you the truth. Although the person who saved him in the fire scene was sure that it was Xiao Lele, the fire was not released more and more. Don't just suspect your father!"

Yue Xiaosi didn't expect that the emperor could explain it so thoroughly to him. After he hesitating slightly, he made up his mind and asked directly: "I heard from Qianqiu that you didn't know that the woman who once had the spring breeze was Xiao Lele, the Queen of the Northern Yan Wenwu. Since it was not the fire my father set, it shouldn't be the emperor. So who else can do such a thing in this world?"

"You know, Emperor Beiyan insisted before his death. He thoroughly investigated all the suspicious people, but there was no such person in Beiyan. Since that's the case, it's not them or you, who else can there be?"

After a long time, Yue Xiaosi, who had been staring at the emperor, finally waited for a less certain answer.

"It's been a long time, and I have no evidence at the beginning, so I'm just a pure guess. Maybe... that fire was released by Xiao Lele herself. Her dilemma is not the reason why it cannot be cured, but the fact. But as for the evidence, there is no, and why, I don't know."

Chen Wuliang, who happened to send the twelve princess away and returned to the door to serve as a guard, heard the last half of the words, and immediately felt a chill in the tailbone. Although Yue Xiaosi's refutation soon came from the room, he savored the events that had happened over the years and finally came to a conclusion that made him palpitations.

Maybe, this is true...

He shook his head and drove all these reverie out of his mind, but because the distance was too close, even if he didn't want to listen, the voices in the room kept pouring into his ears. When he heard Yue Xiaosi ask the emperor whether he planned to betroth the twelfth princess to Yue Qianqiu, he felt his heart suffocating again, but following the emperor's answer made him feel relieved.
