Su Yizhong was not very interested in the true intentions of Yan Lichu, the empress of the Yan Kingdom.
After experiencing Chu Muxue's betrayal, he deeply experienced the feeling of being used.
He understands that in this game of thrones.
Only true strength is the most reliable guarantee.
The cruel reality seemed like a wake-up call.
Let Su Ye understand deeply.
There are no permanent friends and no permanent enemies.
Only benefits are eternal.
Seven days later, Su Ye and his party finally arrived at the Imperial City of Yan Kingdom.
Even more so than the welcome along the way.
The empress of Yan State set up a grand welcome feast for Su Ye in the imperial city.
When Su Ye entered the imperial capital, the entire capital seemed to be boiling instantly.
Lanterns were decorated and the streets were empty.
People flocked to the streets one after another, vying to see the beauty of Su Ye in white.
The shops and houses on both sides of the street are decorated with colorful flags and lanterns.
It seemed as if the entire capital was cheering for his arrival.
However, in this festive atmosphere, Su Ye suddenly felt a chill coming over him.
It was a cold gaze projected from a certain direction.
He raised his head alertly, looking across the busy street and landing on the figure on the tall building in the distance.
It was a man wearing brocade clothes, standing upright in the darkness.
His eyes were full of hostility, like a beast staring at its prey.
"That is one of the heirs of one of the four major families in the Yan Kingdom, Gu Wuji."
Yan Lingshan beside her reminded softly.
She revealed a hint of worry, clearly aware of the danger this man could pose.
"He has always been eyeing the position of empress."
Yan Lingshan continued, her tone full of disgust and contempt.
"It is said that he has recruited a group of powerful martial arts masters and is ready to seize power at any time."
A smile appeared on Su Ye's lips.
This Wuji's ambition was completely exposed.
I don't know if the struggle between Yan Kingdom has been brought to the fore, or if Gu Wuji is really that stupid.
Su Ye didn't seem to notice the man's malicious gaze as he walked through the streets and walked into the Yan Palace.
As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he was shocked by the grand banquet in front of him.
In the splendid palace.
Hundreds of officials stood on both sides, solemn and solemn, and the atmosphere was solemn and grand.
Sitting in the first place is Yan Lichu, the empress of the Yan Kingdom.
She wears a gorgeous dragon robe and a golden crown.
As soon as Su Ye showed up, he saw Yan Lichu, the empress of the Yan Kingdom, standing up to greet her.
Regarding Su Ye, their eyes were full of curiosity.
Completely different from the cold and arrogant Chu Muxue.
Yan Lichu had a smile on his face and showed a calmness and elegance in his behavior.
You can feel her affinity at a glance.
Not only is it beautiful, but it also has a unique charm.
It makes people fall in love with it.
Su Ye was calm and calm, walking calmly.
He walked up to Yan Lichu and saluted solemnly:
"Su Ye, thank you for your help."
Yan Lichu returned the gift with a smile and a gentle voice:
"Mr. Su, you're welcome. It's a blessing to our country of Yan that you can come to us."
"Please take a seat. The banquet has been prepared. Let's chat while we eat."
Yan Lichu did not directly mention the purpose of inviting Su Ye, but cleverly avoided it.
Su Ye did not reveal his thoughts, but just followed the flow.
As Su Ye took his seat, the banquet officially began.
All kinds of fine wines and delicacies are dazzling.
The aroma permeates the air, making your mouth water.
All the officials tasted the delicacies with satisfaction, and the atmosphere of the banquet was relaxed and pleasant.
There was laughter and chatter.
It seemed as if the entire banquet hall was immersed in a sea of joy.
When the banquet reaches its climax.
The palace musicians played a beautiful piece of music, and the dancers danced to the music.
It adds a bit of romance and elegance to the banquet.
While everyone is immersed in delicious food and music.
Suddenly, a drunken drunkard stumbled into the banquet.
"I heard that the white-clothed Su Ye is here, let me see what he looks like!"
The vulgar and arrogant words made everyone present couldn't help showing expressions of disgust.
Yan Lingshan explained quietly from the side:
"This is another heir of the four major families, Bai Ye, the most ridiculous and useless person."
"His family is the richest man in Yan State and controls the economic lifeline of Yan State."
Su Ye remained silent and observed silently, as if he was deaf to Bai Ye's offensive words.
Being so arrogant at the Empress' reception banquet would not only hit him in the face.
Sure enough, a voice shouted loudly:
"How presumptuous! Why don't you apologize to His Majesty!"
The speaker was a middle-aged man with a serious face and a majestic expression.
Judging from his clothes and demeanor, it is obvious that he has a high status in the court.
I saw that Bai Ye was still stumbling and unsteady, but he clearly taunted:
"Who doesn't know that Su Ye was originally an aide to the Empress of Chu?"
"Now he has defected to the Empress of Yan Kingdom. I don't know where he got the ability to serve two empresses."
This is a suggestive attack on life!
When the middle-aged man heard this, his face darkened, and he was about to scold him again, but saw Yan Lichu raise his hand to stop him.
She looked at Bai Ye calmly and said calmly:
"What are the Bai Qing family saying? Su Ye is my man if he has the ability to be used by me."
"When I employ people, I naturally make use of their strengths, not their weaknesses."
"Besides, Su Ye once helped the Empress of Chu to quell civil strife, and her strength is recognized by the consensus of the seven countries."
"It's you..."
Yan Lichu changed the topic and said lightly:
"The Bai Qing family slandered my guest in public. Do they think I have no idea, or do they think there is no one in my court?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Ye's face immediately turned pale, he fell to his knees with a plop, trembling all over and said:
"Your Majesty clearly knows that I have no such intention..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Yan Lichu waved his hand and said:
"Okay, today is the day for me to take care of Mr. Su. It is not appropriate to see blood."
"Come here, pull Bai Ye out and slap him ten times as a warning to others."
Bai Ye was dragged out like this.
Accompanied by bursts of loud applause, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly dropped to freezing point.
Su Ye observed everything in front of him with great interest, and new thoughts arose in his heart.
He began to wonder, was Bai Ye's play a farce for him?
Or does Yan Lichu really have the courage to ignore the heir to the richest man in Yan country?
While thinking about it, Yan Lichu raised his wine glass and greeted Su Ye:
"Mr. Su is laughing, please don't take Bai Ye's matter to heart."
Su Ye smiled slightly, raised his glass and said in reply: "Young people are not worth mentioning."
It is not only the disdain and refutation of Bai Ye's hint, but also the disdain of Bai Ye himself.
Hearing this, Yan Lichu's eyes flickered a little, but he soon regained his composure.
