Chapter 112 Princess Pingning
Chapter 112 Princess Pingning
Now that Li Wen has actually come to the imperial city and arrived in their territory, of course they have to plan carefully how to deal with this person!
"Have you found out his exact location?"
Yan Meili shook her head and said,
"When Li Wen entered the city, he was discovered by a soldier captain, who then reported him to me. Now he is nowhere to be found!"
"Then we should remain unchanged in the face of all changes. He will definitely make some moves when he comes to the Imperial City!"
"Just wait, I have a feeling that this Li Wen will jump out soon!"
Just like that, two days passed quickly!
A piece of news aroused the anger of Emperor Yan in the court!
"Reporting to Emperor Yan, all the talents who took the imperial examination this year were killed on their way to the imperial city, except for the talents sent by Changyuan City!"
"Damn it, who on earth is so bold as to do such a brazen thing!"
Seeing Emperor Yan’s rage, all the officials in the court huddled together, not daring to show their heads, for fear of being hit by the guns!
"Investigate for me and make sure to catch the murderer!"
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The person who reported it retreated trembling with fear!
"Can you tell me what's going on?"
Emperor Yan looked around at the ministers and questioned!
"I think it was someone sent by our neighboring country, Tubo. Since our Yan country has had friction with them, it seems very likely that they will retaliate against us!"
The right prime minister stood up and said!
"Yes, the Tubo Kingdom is becoming more and more rampant, and they are increasingly looking down upon our Yan Kingdom! It is very likely that they will do such abominable things!"
Most of the ministers began to agree with what the right prime minister said!
At this time, Emperor Yan also felt that this might be the case!
"Order General Mengmang to send troops to closely monitor the movements of the Tibetan Kingdom. If there is any disturbance, report it to the court immediately!"
Emperor Yan said to the mighty man on his left!
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Mengmang led most of the soldiers and generals, and was second only to one man. He held great power and made great military achievements for the Yan Kingdom! He was a confidant of the Yan Emperor, loyal and trustworthy to the country, stubborn, firm in his stance, and strong in his will!
Moreover, his own strength is at the half-step Qi Hai realm!
These advantages are why Emperor Yan attaches great importance to them!
However, Emperor Yan was deploying some plans!
The supervisor came to the court to report.
"Your Majesty, Prince Li Wen of the Pingnan Palace is here to see you!"
After Emperor Yan and the court officials heard this, the scene calmed down!
"Your Majesty, the Prince of Pingnan has not come to see you for several years. Why is he coming now?"
"What is this Li Wenshizi doing here?"
The court officials began to chat and whisper to each other!
"Announce him to come in!"
Yan Huang frowned and said that he didn't know what the man was up to, but he would know soon!
The court officials were also confused!
Soon, Li Wen, dressed in a brocade robe and with a calm expression, walked into the hall!
He didn't even kneel down, he just bowed his hands!
"Li Wen, the second son of the Pingnan Palace, pays homage to Emperor Yan and wishes him longevity and prosperity!"
According to etiquette, Prince Pingnan should kneel and kowtow when meeting Emperor Yan, not to mention his son, who seemed very rude at this moment!
Some ministers looked angry.
"How dare you! You can't kneel down and pay homage to His Majesty?"
There was also a hint of displeasure on Emperor Yan’s face!
He is the supreme ruler of Yan State and holds a high position. Which of his subjects would not kneel down and worship him when they see him?
"Oh, I'm sorry, this is my first time in the court and I don't know the rules. I will remember them next time!"
Li Wen chuckled, without any respect on his face!
"How dare you, you bastard!"
The general snorted angrily and pressed forward with great momentum! He wanted to make him look bad!
Unfortunately, it had little effect on Li Wen, who had reached the peak of the foundation-building stage. It was like a breeze blowing past and lifting a strand of his hair!
Seeing that there is no effect, Mengmang is going to take action directly to capture this guy who despises the court!
"General, do not be rude!"
Yan Huang spoke in time!
"This is indeed the first time that the Crown Prince has come to the imperial capital. It is understandable that he has not followed some of the etiquette!"
"I hope you won't do this next time, Prince!"
Emperor Yan said coldly!
He didn't want to confront the Prince of Pingnan directly for the time being! He had to suppress his anger temporarily!
The general had to step back and retract his attack!
"Your Majesty is very broad-minded! I, Li, am ashamed!"
Li Wen said in a pretentious manner!
Many court officials' faces turned pale. They certainly knew what His Majesty was worried about!
"I have brought some treasures with me today. I hope Your Majesty will help me with my good deeds!"
Li Wen ignored the ugly expressions of the court officials and clapped his hands!
A team of people carried more than a dozen carts of jewelry into the hall!
Each carload of jewellery is priceless!
When the court officials and Emperor Yan saw this scene, they wondered what Li Wen was going to do.
"Sir, what good thing can I do for you?"
Yan Huang asked directly!
"Of course I hope Your Majesty will help me and the princess get together!"
"When our Pingnan Palace and the Yan Imperial Family unite, we will be invincible!"
"These jewels are my gift to marry the princess!"
After hearing this, the expressions of the court officials and Emperor Yan changed slightly!
Everyone in the world knows that Emperor Yan has only one daughter. If nothing unexpected happens, Yan Meili will be the future ruler of the Yan Kingdom. Marrying Yan Meili means obtaining the Yan Kingdom!
"The prince has such a big heart!"
Emperor Yan laughed out of anger!
"Don't even mention whether I agree or not. Even if it's beautiful, I don't think I'll agree!"
"Oh, it's the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. As long as His Majesty agrees, I believe that Her Royal Highness the Princess will not be unreasonable!"
Li Wen gently waved his folding fan, looking like a handsome young man!
"Humph……"
Emperor Yan snorted coldly!
He originally wanted to be tolerant, but he didn't expect that the people in the Pingnan Palace have become more and more aggressive in recent years! It really proves the saying that if you are weak, you will be beaten!
"Princess Xuan is here to see you..."
Yan Huang said!
He also had to ask Yan Meili's opinion on this matter. If the two of them had feelings for each other, it would seem inappropriate for him to reject her directly, as he would offend the Pingnan Palace and make his daughter unhappy!
Then the eunuch hurried down to convey the order!
Li Wen was waiting boredly! He didn't believe that Emperor Yan would not be tempted by these dozen carts of jewels. If they were converted into silver, they could satisfy the salary of 300,000 troops for ten years!
Not long after, the two princesses came together, followed by Guan Xiaobai and others!
The eunuch didn't know which princess His Majesty wanted to summon, so he invited both princesses!
Yan Meili still looks like a scholar in a white robe!
Lu Yuewen was wearing a light green dress, and both of them were wearing light makeup, with handsome features!
After arriving at the main hall!
"Her Royal Highness Princess Jianning has arrived!"
"Her Royal Highness Princess Pingning has arrived!"
The eunuch shouted like a duck!
All the court officials looked over there!
Two princesses come together!
The princess has a special seat, above the ministers and below the throne, in the middle position!
The princess can attend the morning court or not, which is a special status!
Although Li Wen heard yesterday that a new Princess Pingning had been added to Yan State, he did not expect that it was Lu Yuewen, whom he had met before, and Guan Xiaobai was also among them!
