Yan Qi looked at Brother Ruan who was both embarrassed and guilty, and suddenly smiled: "Why are you nervous? It's just a casual question. Come, let's drink tea."
"Master Xie Yan, thank you, thank you."
Brother Ruan sipped the fragrant tea in embarrassment and hurriedly changed the subject: "Master Yan, I came to visit you because King De asked me to tell you something."
Yan Qi thought clearly: "What orders does King De have?"
Brother Ruan made a sincere look: "King De admires Lord Yan's style very much and wants to meet Lord Yan."
"Meet me?"
When Yan Qi heard this, he felt confident.
It seems that King De is indeed coveting the position of the leader of Annan Kingdom.
This is easy to handle.
Brother Ruan was looking forward to it: "I wonder if Mr. Yan is willing?"
Yan Qidao: "I am willing, but..."
Brother Ruan suddenly became nervous: "But what?"
Yan Qidao: "It's okay to meet, but where to meet?"
Brother Ruan said: "Prince De warmly invites you to visit Prince De's palace."
"Going to Prince De's Mansion?"
Yan Qi chuckled and shook his head: "That's not necessary."
Brother Ruan was anxious: "Master Yan, King De is kindly inviting you. I hope you can understand."
Yan Qi did not let go: "It's not that I don't give face to King De, but that there is some chaos in Miao territory now. The Nine Kings and Miao King Dika are having conflicts and are fighting in Ruicheng. At this moment, if I leave, what if Miao territory breaks out? In this deadly chaos, wouldn’t I, the imperial envoy, be derelict in my duty?”
Brother Ruan was startled: "What happened to Nine Kings and Dika? What trouble happened?"
Yan Qi pretended to be helpless: "Nine kings and Miao kings are fighting for fame and fortune. Alas, it's a long story."
Yan Qi didn't mind it and told Brother Ruan in a serious manner.
When Brother Ruan heard this, he was greatly moved, a little uneasy, and even a little excited.
He did not expect that as soon as Yan Qi came to Miaojiang, Miaojiang would become chaotic and out of control.
Once chaos breaks out in the Miao territory, it will be Annan's opportunity, and even more so, Dewang's opportunity.
Because King De is responsible for security in the north.
Brother Ruan hid the sinister thoughts in his heart and looked worried for Yan Qi: "What should I do if such a big thing happens?"
Yan Qidao: "What else can we do? As an imperial envoy, I naturally have to break up the fight. After tomorrow, I will lead a large force to Ruicheng to mediate the dispute. Hey, I don't know how to solve this matter. I have a headache. I have a headache. ."
Brother Ruan was greatly moved when he heard this: "Master Yan, are you going to lead an army to Ruicheng?"
Yan Qidao: "Of course! The situation is so big, how can we allow King Dika of Miao and the Nine Kings to go to war? We are all subjects of Dahua, how can we have internal strife?"
Brother Ruan nodded: "Master Yan is right, you are right."
Yan Qi waved her hand helplessly: "Forget it, let's not talk about this matter, let's talk about King De. If King De wants to meet me, then come to Miaojiang, I will treat you warmly."
Brother Ruan looked embarrassed: "This is not possible. King De has said that you can be a guest at Prince De's Mansion in He County. I dare not not listen to what King De said."
Yan Qi sneered: "King De is your King De, what does it have to do with me? I have made it clear that I am going to Ruicheng, how can I have time to go to He County to meet with King De?"
"This..." Brother Ruan looked embarrassed.
Yan Qi rubbed his eyes irritably: "Okay, I made it very clear. If King De wants to meet me, then he should come to Miao territory in person. If he doesn't want to meet, then forget it. Anyway, I am Definitely not going to River County.”
"Besides, there is internal strife in Ruicheng, and I have to rush to mediate the dispute. Do you understand? Okay, let's see the guests off."
Hutou came in: "Brother Ruan, please get out."
Brother Ruan had already tried to understand Yan Qi's attitude and hurriedly stood up: "Well, I will definitely convey Master Yan's words to King De."
…
After Brother Ruan left, he did not leave in a hurry, but went to a suburban place.
There are thatched huts here.
Brother Ruan knocked on the door gently.
"Who?" someone inside asked.
Brother Ruan said: "Follow closely to see if Yan Qi will leave Hongcheng and rush to Ruicheng tomorrow. The matter is too big to be careless. I will wait for you at the old place."
"Yes!" The person inside agreed.
Brother Ruan finished speaking and left in a hurry.
No one noticed that the eagles were flying in the sky and kept circling.
…
In the study.
Hutou reported to Yan Qi: "According to the news from Fei Ying, Brother Ruan went to the suburbs and stayed in a thatched hut for a while, and then left."
Yan Qi nodded: "As expected, Brother Ruan still left a few nails."
Hutou said, "Do you want me to pull out the nail?"
Yan Qi shook his head: "No need, Brother Ruan's big influence has been removed, and the remaining few nails are insignificant. Besides, I will use these nails to cause trouble now. After removing them, how will I plan?"
Hutou nodded.
He won't ask Yan Qi what he wants to plan, that's not what he should ask.
If Lord Yan has an order, just carry it out.
…
That night.
Yan Qi announced that he would lead the army to Ruicheng early tomorrow morning to mediate the dispute between the Nine Kings and Dika.
Leng Youxue was very curious and asked Yan Qi: "Why are you going to Ruicheng? To mediate disputes? Jiu Wang and Dika dog bite dogs, the more fierce the bite, the better."
Yan Qidao: "You don't understand, I'm asking you to enter the urn."
Leng Youxue asked: "Who is the king?"
Yan Qidao: "King De!"
"King De?"
Leng Youxue was puzzled: "Why did you invite him here? I feel so idle."
Yan Qi joked: "If I have nothing to do, I will pick a fight with you."
"roll!"
Leng Youxue giggled angrily: "Let's get down to business, don't make those obscene farts, why did you meet King De?"
Yan Qidao: "Whether we can enter the Annan Palace depends on King De."
Leng Youxue asked: "You want King De to come, will King De come? This guy has a distinguished status in Annan and has military power. How can he be sent by you?"
Yan Qi smiled strangely: "So, I will give King De some bait to lure him to the bait. As long as he takes the bait, he will come even if he doesn't come."
Leng Youxue was curious: "I want to hear it, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Qidao: "If I lead the army to Ruicheng now, Hongcheng will be empty and unguarded. It happens that the Nine Kings and Dika are also fighting, so Hongcheng's defense will be reduced to the lowest point. You said, in this situation , will King De take advantage of every opportunity to attack Hongcheng?"
Leng Youxue had a flash of inspiration: "It goes without saying that King De has been coveting Hongcheng for many years. How can he sit back and watch this opportunity? He will definitely take advantage of it."
Yan Qidao: "Isn't Hongcheng the most fragrant bait for King De?"
Leng Youxue shook her head heroically: "Oh, I understand, why did you lead the army to Ruicheng to mediate the dispute? It turned out to be to leave a fragrant bait for King De. Bad guy, you are so bad. However, a crucial question comes..."
Yan Qixiao asked: "But it doesn't matter."
