Chapter 505: The treacherous ministers take action
Yan Chaoyue greeted Xin Che, Xin Cheng, and Chen Fulan, "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! Sister-in-law! We finally meet!"
Don't hit a smiling person. The smile on his face is warm and honest.
Xin Ningyu pinched his arm and said, "Don't smile so foolishly. It makes me feel like I married a fool."
Xin Che poured a glass of wine for Yan Chaoyue: "Brother Yan, you are too polite. We haven't had time to thank you for helping the Xin family settle down in the grassland. Let me toast you first."
When Xin Cheng saw how Yan Chaoyue and Xin Ningyu got along, he knew that his third sister really liked this strange grassland Khan in front of him, so he raised his glass and toasted Yan Chaoyue.
"Brother Yan, I cannot thank you enough for your kindness."
Yan Chaoyue quickly responded enthusiastically.
Xin Ningyu grabbed Jiang Lili and although it was the first time they met, there was no sense of strangeness at all, it was as natural as old friends meeting again.
Xin Ningyu embraced Jiang Lili and said, "Sister-in-law, I want to toast you, too."
"If you hadn't brought the message, I'd have been unable to move forward on the grassland."
"I can fight on the front lines without worries, all thanks to you for sending me all kinds of magical supplies. I feel safe!"
Jiang Lili touched Xin Ningyu's glass with the wine glass in her hand and winked at her: "You're welcome."
"That's because you're worth it."
Jiang Lili's words directly touched Xin Ningyu's heart, "Sister-in-law! You are so good at it!"
Xin Ningyu held Jiang Lili's hand and said, "If you were a man, I would be moved to hear this."
Feeding them with various supplies every day gives them a full sense of security, and they speak nicely! What kind of teammate is this?
Xin Ningyu's words aroused dissatisfaction among the two men.
Yan Chaoyue was indignant: "How am I worse than Li Li?"
Xin Che didn't say anything but looked resentful. Li Li had never said this to him.
The people who met for the first time quickly blended in with each other as they played and laughed. The young prince and his wife smiled kindly as they watched the group of young people chattering.
The atmosphere inside Prince Zhao's mansion was full of joy, which was completely different from the atmosphere outside the mansion.
Xia Su's military division and the grassland envoys were in a stalemate.
Xia Su frowned and looked at the first guard who arrived at Prince Zhao's palace. "Are you saying you saw the grassland Khan forcing his way into the palace?"
"Yes, sir! I saw it with my own eyes."
The guard said with certainty: "The woman and the Khan's horse ran too fast, but the small push was not bad. When we rushed up, we saw that the grassland Khan punched the servant who was closing the door open!"
"How could you be so rude in Prince Zhao's mansion? The grassland people are really becoming more and more arrogant."
Xia Su said this, but he was looking forward to it. He couldn't wait to see the two sides fight. His Majesty was in a bad situation now. He could openly punish the Prince Zhao's Mansion and let the grassland Khan take action. It would be best to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Maybe during the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, he could kill someone with a borrowed knife...
When Xia Su thought of this, he was delighted!
"Did you see how King Zhao reacted?"
Guard: "It seems that King Zhao asked the Khan of the grassland to come in, and then asked the servant to close the door."
Is it like closing the door and beating the dog?
Xia Su thought of the woman who looked like Xin Ningyu. Could it be...
Did the Khan of the grassland bring Xin Ningyu back deliberately to humiliate King Zhao, reminding him that although he is now a prince, their daughter is still a sacrifice sent for marriage, and to expose their scars?
Xia Su widened his eyes!
pass!
It all makes sense!
The Khan of the grassland had always been resentful of being defeated by the Xin family. When the daughter of the Xin family was sent to the grassland for marriage, he did not execute her but raised her well. He did not allow her to die so easily and be freed. Instead, he let her live well, suffering mental torture, the pain of missing her parents, and the humiliation of being on the grassland.
What the Khan of the grassland is waiting for is to avenge his previous humiliation and hold his head high today!
This Khan's endurance and cunning are truly terrifying.
If you had said it earlier, he would not have stopped you if you had told me that you were here to cause trouble for King Zhao, and you would have brought shame upon yourself.
Rather than believing in outrageous rumors that Xin Ningyu is some prairie Valkyrie, my own meticulous analysis is much more reliable!
The Xin family is full of loyal and strong people. How could they collude with the foreign tribes on the grassland and conquer territory for them? Not to mention that the third young lady of the Xin family is a sickly woman who can't lift anything with her hands or carry anything on her shoulders.
The more Xia Su thought about it, the more he felt that he was a genius! But he didn't know who won this war without gunpowder in Prince Zhao's mansion.
Xia Su kept waiting and waiting until it was dark. He had been a free security guard for Prince Zhao's palace for most of the day, but he didn't see the Khan of the grassland come out.
Finally, when it was late at night, the door of Prince Zhao's mansion creaked open.
Yan Chaoyue came out of Prince Zhao's palace with a red face and thick neck, and climbed onto the horse, but the woman did not come out with him.
Judging from the situation, the Khan of the grassland suffered a setback in Prince Zhao's palace.
The grassland envoys then headed towards the post station.
Xia Su yawned. He could finally finish this tiring job. Although it was tiring, he gained a lot.
He rode his horse hurriedly towards the palace.
After the palace gates were locked, the emperor was glad that he had to go through numerous checks before entering the palace. Xia Su came to the imperial study, but was stopped by Zhou Jushan's lackey Xiao Qiuzi.
"Master Xia, His Majesty is discussing important matters and has ordered that no one is allowed to see him at this time."
Xiao Qiuzi said with a fake smile: "Why don't you wait here first?"
Xia Su, who had been standing guard at the gate of Prince Zhao's mansion for a day, felt bitter when he heard this. He rubbed his aching back and said, "Okay, I'll wait until His Majesty is done with his work."
Xiao Qiuzi's smile remained unchanged: "How about I move a chair for Lord Xia to sit at the door of the imperial study?"
"it is good……"
Xia Su was about to agree when he was tired of standing, but then he changed his mind and quickly stopped the car: "No, no, I'll just stand here."
Now His Majesty is becoming more and more suspicious and his mind is becoming more and more sensitive. If he dares to move a chair and sit at the door of the Imperial Study, His Majesty will suspect that he wants to sit on the chair on the steps of the Imperial Study.
"Excuse me, Eunuch Qiu, who is in there now?"
Xiao Qiuzi smiled evilly when he heard this, and said warmly and politely, "A very important person."
Xia Su paused and thought, then looked inside and finished the job quickly.
In the imperial study room.
The new leader of the secret guards is reporting to Emperor Qingning about the unusual incident of the grassland Khan entering the capital today.
The more Emperor Qingning listened, the uglier his expression became, and he even drank several sips of ginseng tea.
Zhou Jushan, who was standing aside, glanced at the ginseng tea.
"Your Majesty, that Khan is really arrogant."
"It's fine that the first person I met when I came to the capital was King Zhao and not you, but you actually want to fuss over such a small matter. The emperor's majesty is bullshit."
The original leader of the secret guards had died during the assassination of King Zhao. When the new leader of the secret guards reported the situation, he told Emperor Yi Qingning everything that had happened today.
Emperor Qingning blushed, "How dare you, a prairie wretch, be so arrogant!"
After saying this, he felt a pain in his chest and a mouthful of blood spurted out, splashing on the memorial.
