"Your Highness, these people have no contact with Liangshan, how can they collude?" Thirteenth Niang is such a smart person. She has already made some guesses about Li Yan's intentions, but her face shows shock. And the color of incomprehension.
"I have found out that the Third Emperor's brother and Shangguan Tong had many connections with Liangshan before the Xiao family's rebellion. The physical evidence is complete." Li Yan shook his head repeatedly and said, "The reason why I asked Miss Zhu to testify is just to increase the persuasiveness. That’s all.”
"The civilian girls really don't know about this." The thirteenth mother has just settled in the imperial capital. How can she be willing to get involved in these high-level games? Although her tone is soft, her attitude is very firm, "Since your highness already has the evidence, directly submit it to His Majesty the Emperor, I think that with the wisdom of the current Holy One, he will definitely be able to deal with it justly."
"Miss Zhu, these two people are powerful and cunning. Although I have evidence in my hands, it is difficult to defeat them." Li Yan said seductively, "If you are willing to help Gu bring these two thieves to justice The law has greatly benefited the people of Daqian, so I will no longer pursue the matter of Song Hai, how about it?"
Didn’t you just say you don’t care?
Seeing that Li Yan had gone back on his word, Thirteen Niang became even more uneasy about his character. She shook her head and said, "Your Highness, although a civilian girl comes from a humble background, she is not an ignorant person. She clearly doesn't know in her heart. But to come forward to testify against other people’s crimes, isn’t it just talking nonsense and how is it different from making false accusations?”
"Miss Zhu, after all, these people under your command are gangsters and have committed many crimes." Li Yan was quite unhappy when he saw her stubbornness, and his tone could not help but become colder, "If you don't pay any price, you can do it." If you want to change your appearance and become a good citizen, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world?"
"Why didn't you pay the price?" Coral listened to the side and was very angry, and couldn't help but retort, "If our brothers hadn't worked hard on the front line to help the army kill the enemy, Xiqi might not have been able to win the battle!"
"This is Miss Zhu's adopted sister, Miss Huang, right? She is indeed very courageous." Li Yan's eyes swept over the youthful and pretty face of Huang, and he praised, "It's just that you know this and I know, the people of the imperial capital But I don’t necessarily know that if Gu now spreads the news that this shop is opened by Liangshan gangsters, do you think there will be any customers willing to come?"
"You..." Coral was suddenly speechless, her fair little face bulging with anger, and she was speechless for a moment.
"As the crown prince of Daqian, I cannot stand by and watch traitors like Li Qing and Shangguan Tong continue to be at large. As long as Miss Zhu is willing to take action, she can help bring down these two major hidden dangers to the empire." Li Yan suddenly gathered ten people. Sanniang stood in front of her with a flawless face, gently held Thirteenth Niang's white and tender right hand, and said softly, "Gu not only wants to give all of you the status of good citizens and announce your contributions to the empire to the world, but also give What do you think, Miss Zhu, of your position as the crown prince's concubine?"
Even though Thirteenth Niang was extremely intelligent, she still couldn't help being surprised, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.
After all, she was not an ordinary person. She quickly weighed the pros and cons in her mind, and quietly pulled her jade hand out of Li Yan's palm. There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone: "How can a civilian girl be so virtuous? Can I win the favor of His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Miss Zhu is a heroine, with both talent and beauty." Li Yan's face came closer, smelling the faint feminine fragrance of Thirteenth Niang, and staring at the beauty's charming face. He felt his mind wandering and almost couldn't control himself, " I have admired you for a long time, so you must not belittle yourself."
"It is a great honor for a common girl to be favored by His Highness the Crown Prince." Thirteenth Niang leaned back slightly and distanced herself from Li Yan. "After all, this matter is serious. I wonder if Your Highness can allow a common girl to consider it?"
"These rebel forces are huge. Even if they wait a moment longer, they may bring great harm to the empire." Li Yan shook his head and said, "I really can't wait any longer. Please give me an answer now."
Faced with Li Yan's aggressiveness, Thirteenth Niang realized that she might not be able to deal with it today. She glanced at the coral beside her with a heavy heart, and saw that the girl's pretty face was full of indignation. It was obvious that she was dissatisfied with the prince. What he did was quite disgraceful.
Nangong Ling, Shangguan Mingyue... silhouettes of figures flashed through his mind, and finally, his thoughts settled on a handsome and smiling face.
"I'm afraid the daughter of the people will live up to His Highness's kindness." Thirteenth Niang sighed softly and said softly.
"You, you don't want to?" Thirteenth Niang's answer was completely beyond Li Yan's expectation.
Li Yan was disappointed for a while when he learned about Thirteen Niang's life experience from the people below.
Even if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince does not need to pay too much attention to the concubine's family background, it is impossible to marry a female bandit into the East Palace.
However, the beautiful image of Thirteen Niangs always lingered in his mind, and he couldn't get rid of it no matter what.
He had to admit that he was really attracted to this woman.
After countless psychological struggles, he finally decided to give the other party a chance.
As long as Thirteenth Mother can help him clear the obstacles and help him successfully ascend to the throne, he will brave the disapproval of the world and defy the opposition of all courtiers to make an exception by taking a former gangster leader as his concubine.
In Li Yan's view, such a transition from bandit to imperial concubine is an irresistible temptation for any woman.
Therefore, when he heard the words of rejection from Thirteenth Niang, he suddenly had a ridiculous feeling and could hardly believe his ears.
"I'm afraid that because of the poor fortune of civilian girls, it will be difficult for them to accept His Majesty's kindness." Thirteenth Niang did not make much excuse, but replied in an extremely humble tone, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
"Have you thought it through?" In just a few days, Li Yan was rejected by two women one after another. Li Yan felt that his self-esteem was shattered, and his mood suddenly dropped to freezing point. He said in a cold tone, "Don't regret it."
"The daughter of the people sincerely wishes His Highness a smooth trip and that he will catch all the remnants of the rebels hiding in the empire." Thirteenth Niang stood up and bowed respectfully.
"Since Miss Zhu has made up her mind, I won't force her any more." Li Yan stared at Thirteenth Niang and said word by word.
Thirteenth Niang felt relieved, and was about to say a few more polite words when she saw Li Yan's expression suddenly changed: "Come here, seal this small building, take the rebellious traitor and Liangshan bandit leader Thirteenth Niang back, and interrogate him strictly. !”
As soon as he finished speaking, several followers behind him took a step forward at the same time, exuding the powerful power of the Heavenly Wheel, which enveloped Shisanniang and Coral fiercely. Neither of the two women's cultivation reached the Heavenly Wheel, and they only felt that their bodies were full of energy. He froze and instantly lost the ability to move.
"What, what are you doing?" Hualu couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw two men holding Thirteen Niang's delicate body, "The rebellion has nothing to do with my sister. Even His Majesty the Emperor has stopped pursuing it. How can you Why are you catching my sister?"
"Oh? When did your father say that he would no longer pursue the case?" Li Yan sneered, "How come I haven't heard of it?"
"His Majesty the Emperor said it himself. If you don't believe it, we will meet with the Holy Emperor together."
Before Zhong Wen left, he told the Thirteen Niang sisters about the promise made by Li Jiuye, so Hualan felt quite confident.
"My father is seriously ill and unconscious now, but how can I confront him?" A strange smile suddenly appeared on Li Yan's face, "How dare I let a Liangshan gangster move freely in the imperial capital without hearing my father's words? ?”
"You just said yourself that you don't care anymore." Coral said anxiously, "How can you go back on your word, your majestic prince?"
"Coral!" Thirteenth Mother knew something was wrong and quickly shouted to stop.
"Have you ever said this before? What nonsense!" Li Yan's eyes flashed with a stern look, "This girl and the bandit leader Thirteen Niang are sisters. They must have participated in the rebellion. Let's take them away together."
"You..." Coral didn't expect that Prince Daqian would be so arrogant, and even wanted to curse loudly, but he was forced by a sudden and powerful force in his throat, unable to lift it up in one breath, and was unable to make a sound. .
"Thirteenth Mother, what happened?" Gou Datong's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, "I seemed to feel the breath of the heavenly wheel just now."
"It's okay, it was just some misunderstandings, which have been resolved." Thirteenth Niang replied calmly, "Brother Gou should send out the batch of goods from Qingfeng Mountain as soon as possible."
"As long as it's okay." Gou Datong's voice gradually faded away, "Then I'll go and get busy."
"You know what's going on." Seeing that Thirteen Niang didn't call for help, Li Yan showed a trace of satisfaction on his face, "Now that my father is unconscious, I have the final say in the affairs of the entire Daqian Empire. Don't do anything." I imagined that someone would offend me, the current prince, for a mere bandit."
"Your Highness, all the mistakes are the fault of the women alone. Please don't embarrass them." Thirteenth Niang lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, looking resigned to her fate.
"Then it depends on your performance." Li Yan looked at Thirteen Niang's peerless appearance. Although he deeply hated her for rejecting him, he also secretly hoped that the other party would change his mind. "Come back with me first."
After that, he strode to the door, but felt something was wrong in his heart.
"Qingfeng Mountain... Qingfeng Mountain..." He muttered to himself, always feeling that he had overlooked something important.
"Qingfeng Mountain...Piaohua Palace, no! That's a code word!" His expression suddenly changed drastically, "Quickly, chase that person back quickly, he is going to Piaohua Palace for help!"
Three shadows jumped out from behind him and quickly disappeared from sight.
"Bitch!" Li Yan struck Thirteen Niang hard on her right cheek with a backhand, leaving a deep red mark on her white and tender skin that could be broken by blows. "You dare to play tricks on me, okay, Very good, let’s see!”
"Sister!" Coral glared at Li Yan fiercely, her big bright eyes almost bursting with flames, "Can the prince just hit people randomly? Doesn't this Daqian Empire have royal laws?"
"You despicable bandits, are you worthy of talking about Wang Fa?" Li Yan laughed loudly, "Besides, in today's Daqian Empire, I am Wang Fa!"
Then, he turned to the attendants beside him and ordered: "Take everyone in this building away. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!"
After that, he waved his sleeves and disappeared out of the house with high-spirited steps.
…
"Divine Doctor Sun, how is Father?"
Outside Li Jiuye's palace, "Princess Izumo" Li Yiru asked anxiously with a worried look on her face.
"I have been practicing medicine for most of my life, but I have never seen such a strange disease." Doctor Sun shook his head, with a look of helplessness on his face, "Your Majesty is just in a coma, but other physical characteristics are normal, and there is no danger to his life. The cause cannot be determined at the moment.”
"Is there any way to wake up my father?" Li Yiru breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that Li Jiuye was not in danger, and then asked.
"His Majesty has spiritual cultivation and amazing physical fitness. He has tried several medicines so far, but none of them can break through his own resistance." Divine Doctor Sun frowned, "Let me go back and look through the medical books and think about it carefully. "
"Excuse me, the miracle doctor." Li Yiru bent down and bowed heavily, with a graceful and light body and a gentle and gentle voice, which made people feel close to him unconsciously.
"What did your Highness say?" Divine Doctor Sun waved his hands repeatedly, "This is my responsibility."
Farewell to Li Yiru, Divine Doctor Sun hurried back to his room in Taiyuan Hospital, unloaded the baggage on his back, turned around and closed the door.
"You did very well."
I don't know when a dark shadow appeared in the room.
"I can guarantee that Your Majesty will never wake up." Doctor Sun's kind expression instantly darkened, "Can your Excellency put Heng'er back?"
"Why are you so anxious? That boy Sun Heng is now eating well and sleeping well, and his life is more comfortable than the emperor." The man in black said sadly, "When His Highness the Crown Prince successfully succeeds to the throne, your precious grandson will come back safely. , keep a lot of his hair."
"I hope you can keep your word." A trace of pain flashed in Divine Doctor Sun's eyes.
"Don't worry." Heiying suddenly changed the topic, "Remember, don't play tricks, otherwise I won't mind cutting off Sun Heng's flesh piece by piece and making a pot of braised pork in front of you."
After saying that, along with bursts of cold laughter, the black shadow gradually faded in the room and finally disappeared without a trace.
