Their eyes met, Lou Jinhuan looked at Yan Ruqing subconsciously.
He was wearing a black robe and a silver belt around his waist. He had a straight posture and a smile on his face. His amber eyes were shining brightly in the sunlight, and he didn't look like he was seriously injured.
She pursed her lips, her expression unchanged, but her heart was beating like a drum.
After seeing her, Yan Ruqing couldn't help but speed up and strode forward, but stopped three steps in front of her.
At this time, the little emperor and the secret guard had been captured and pressed in front of him.
The little emperor was pressed on the shoulders and kept struggling, his face turned red, "Yan Ruqing, you escaped during the border war. What crime should you do?"
"Isn't this what your Majesty wants?" Yan Ruqing looked away and suddenly became cold when she looked at the little emperor.
"You placed spies in the army, and you worked together to set a trap for me. You wanted me to die at the border. Unfortunately, Your Majesty, you are still too young to dare to use this little trick on me."
Yan Ruqing twitched her lips, her tone of regret concealing murderous intent.
"If you had grown up a few more years, you might really be able to defeat me, but you are too impatient."
"Yan Ruqing, even if you kill me today, how can you convince the people? The people in the border areas are in dire straits, but you ignore them. After today, everyone in the world knows that the so-called God of War is just a coward who ran away from battle!"
"Haha -" Yan Ruqing stood with her hands behind her hands, a look of mockery on her face, "Why should I convince everyone? Anyone who doesn't obey will be killed."
"you dare?!"
The little emperor's eyes were about to burst, but Yan Ruqing ignored him and looked at Lou Jinhuan.
In front of so many people, he moved his fingers and then put them back.
"What is the Queen Mother doing?" Yan Ruqing glanced at Lou Jinming on the other side with a playful expression, "Forcing the palace to rebel?"
Lou Jinhuan raised his eyes slightly, "Why did the regent ask questions knowingly and managed to lure the tiger away from the mountain? Why can't the Ai family still control such a little emperor?"
"It's a good idea, but you didn't expect that the king would come back, right?"
Yan Ruqing took a step forward and faced Lou Jinhuan face to face.
Du Ruo looked at this and that blankly, "Prince, you..."
"Someone is coming——"
Yan Ruqing suddenly interrupted her, and Mo Shangshuang came out of the queue, holding a tray he got from somewhere in his hand and walking over expressionlessly.
On the mahogany tray, there is a glass of poisonous wine and three feet of white silk.
Du Ruo and Chu Yun's expressions changed drastically. Lou Jinming's breath dropped and he wanted to rush over, "Yan Ruqing, how dare you——"
Lou Jinhuan turned around and gave him a look. Lou Jinming pursed his lips and looked at her eagerly.
"Brother, don't move." Lou Jinhuan shook his head gently at him.
Lou Jinming was puzzled, but when he saw her eyes were clear and showed no fear, he thought she had a backup plan and reluctantly held back.
The little emperor looked at him in disbelief, "You want to kill her? Are you not with her -"
"Your Majesty, be careful not to insult the reputation of the Queen Mother."
Yan Ruqing successfully silenced the little emperor with a single blow.
Lou Jinhuan lowered his eyes and looked at the two choices handed to him, and chuckled: "So, in order to preserve the reputation of the Ai family, the regent asked the Ai family to follow the late emperor?"
"My Majesty has such a powerful brother. He is always a hidden danger to me. If a gentleman doesn't stand behind a dangerous wall, don't blame your Majesty."
Yan Ruqing picked up the wine cup and handed it to her, "The poison that seals the throat when the blood is seen can make the empress suffer less."
Lou Jinhuan looked at him steadily, and Yan Ruqing smiled at her, "After drinking this glass of wine, you will no longer have to be the Queen Mother of Daxia."
