"Are you the Luo Liya that the military officer spoke of?" Bi You asked in a low voice, staring fixedly at Loria.

Hearing him say so, Luo Liya raised her head and met his gaze. She nodded, "Yes, I am Luo Liya."

"You're the one who said that the Fiery Gilt Steel Ores set you up?"

"It's not me, it's the truth."

Luo Liya's face was like a calm lake surface. She didn't have the slightest expression, speaking in a neither humble nor haughty manner. Bi You listened to her indifferent tone, and a hint of amusement flashed in her eyes.

"Just based on a few students and Si Qing's words, is that true?" What if you bribe them? "Where is the evidence?"

"Fire Blaze Feng and Fang Zheng also have no physical evidence, but they still chose to frame me unjustly. Is His Majesty only acting towards them?"

Luo Liya retorted coldly, but the moment she said that, everyone was shocked. A flash of ruthlessness appeared on Chang Wuyou's face, "How dare you!" How dare you speak to your majesty like that! "

Luo Liya snorted, "I am just speaking the truth."

Bi You was not angered by Luo Liya's words, his eyes turned to Luo Yan who had been silent all this time, "Commander Luo, the daughter you taught is really something."

With a tone full of ridicule, Luo Yan immediately kneeled down and said, "Please calm your anger, your highness. It is your humble servant's fault that I didn't teach my daughter well. If your highness wants to punish me, then punish me."

"Your son will not teach you. It is indeed your fault that your father did this. However …" "She's right. What's wrong with you?"

No one had expected that Bi You would have such a reaction. He had always been strict in punishing those who dared to offend him without being cautious. How could he not be angry when he heard Luo Liya speak like that?

"Your Majesty, it was this witch who wronged us. Don't be fooled by her!" The fiery phoenix saw that Bi You was moving towards Luo Liya and immediately tried to defend herself, but her tone remained the same as always.

Bi You looked at Feng Chen for a while, and then said solemnly: "This is just a misunderstanding, why does the military need to be so aggressive? Since neither side has complete evidence, isn't it good to just let this matter pass?"

When Bi You's words came out, everyone was somewhat surprised. They never thought that Bi You would have such a reaction.

"His Majesty's meaning is …" Zhang Wuyou forced out a few words.

"A small matter can never be a small matter. That little girl who provokes the phoenix often gets into trouble, but her heart is good. Don't be too serious, I know that Luo Liya was wrongly accused."

"Your Majesty …" Several commanders subconsciously murmured. They had always known that Bi You Yu was an Emperor with no bottom line and basically ignored national affairs. Most of the matters were entrusted to the Military Minister and the Deputy Minister, but after listening to Bi You Bi Bi speak like this, they could finally see for themselves.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a foppish lord.

"This matter is decided. If anyone mentions this matter in the future, I will definitely not let them off lightly."

As he said that last sentence, a flash of ruthlessness appeared on Bi You's face. It was the domineering air of an emperor. Chang Wuyou and the other military commanders immediately bowed, "We shall obey the imperial edict."

Luo Liya did not expect the matter to end like this. She originally wanted to make Feng Chenfeng completely disappear from her sight, but she didn't expect all the effort she had put in to that end.

Fire Phoenix must occupy an important position in Bi You's heart.

She could not take it in, but she knew that now that she had made the decision, there was no room for her to argue.

Wu Kong was a bit depressed. He wanted to go up and explain things to Bi You, but he was stopped by Luo Liya and Fu Dongming. They shook their heads at him. Wu Kong's face was filled with anger, but he had no choice but to listen to Luo Liya's words.

"All of you, kneel down. Luo Liya, stay here alone. I have something to say to her."

This time, Wu Kong really couldn't sit still. He heard that the Emperor's harem had three thousand beauties, but he was still not satisfied. He was plundering women to fill the harem, could it be that he had fallen for Luo Liya?

"Your Majesty, this commoner, Wu Kong, has been travelling with Sister Luo Liya, and is willing to stay with her."

He did not know the rules of the palace, so he spoke incoherently. The moment he opened his mouth, he received everyone's vicious gazes.

"Oh?" Bi You raised an eyebrow, "Do you think that since you are willing to stay, I will let you stay?"

Wu Kong's chest rose and fell as if she was trying her best to suppress her anger. Her face was completely red, and Luo Liya was afraid that he would turn into a giant ape. She quickly lowered her voice and told him, "I will protect myself well. You go down first, don't cause any trouble."

Her tone was filled with warning. When Wu Kong heard this, a tinge of panic appeared on his face. His lips moved slightly, but just as he was about to speak, he heard Bi You slowly say, "Alright. If you want to stay, then I will let you stay."

This time, even the accustomed Long Wuyou couldn't guess Bi You's intentions. Just what was he planning to do? Why was he suddenly interested in Luo Liya? Luo Liya was just a normal student, she had nothing to do with Bi You.

Wu Kong's face instantly lit up when he heard this. He couldn't help but reveal a smile at the corner of his mouth.

"The remaining people, do you want me to invite you out?"

Chang Wuyou and the others immediately left the throne room, and after that, Bi You ordered the nearby eunuchs and court ladies to leave as well, leaving behind only the three of them in the throne room.

He stood up slightly and left the Dragon Throne. Stepping down from above, he walked up to Luo Liya and Wukong who were supporting him on the ground and gently raised his hand. "You guys can stand up. Do you want me to talk to you while bending down?"

Luo Liya and Wu Kong immediately stood up. Bi You's face was very close to them, and her eyes were filled with a profound light. She was dressed in rich clothes and had a dragon robe on her body, which made her appear quite grand.

"Do you know why I kept you here?" Bi You said this to Lorya.

"This humble girl doesn't know."

"Do you know why I have been favoring Fire Chase over and over again?" Bi You asked again.

"This humble girl doesn't know either." "No," Loria replied, her face still bland.

"Heh, what a nice Luo Liya. You don't even know what I'm going to say, then what do you know? "Don't think that just because I'm a bit more polite to you, you can kick up your nose and give me face." said Bi You, somewhat annoyed, no longer as gentle as before.

"This humble woman only knows that His Majesty clearly knew that he had committed the crime of provoking the phoenix, yet she favored him. No matter what His Majesty's reason is, if His Majesty was wrong, then so be it."

She was already dissatisfied with Bi You, and although she knew that Bi You would be angry if she said it, she had a feeling that Bi You would not really argue with her, and she did not know what was going on with her.

Hearing his words, Bi You's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Wukong immediately spoke up, "What big sister said is the truth, you … "You're not trying to harm her …"

Since Wu Kong was the first person to dare address the Emperor of the Azure Water Country as' you ', Bi You was slightly angry. However, seeing Wu Kong's blank look, he probably did not know anything about court etiquette. Forget it, why did he have to argue with this brat?

"Forget it, I will just be frank. The Fire Phoenix and her mother have a secret matter regarding our royal family, so we cannot let anyone know about it, so we have to forgive them time and time again, but I do not want to be threatened forever. Lori Ya, I have heard of your name before, you made great contributions in the battle between the Blue Water Nation and the Fire Nation. I know very well that your future is limitless, and there is no one in the empire right now, so if the Fire Nation once again goes to war, the Blue Water Nation will not be able to withstand a single blow. So I need you to take care of two things today."

Bi You's words caused Luo Liya to be confused. Sometimes it would cause trouble for the royal palace, and sometimes it would lead to a war between the Brilliant Empire and the Blue Water Nation. She didn't know what kind of medicine Bi You was trying to pull.

"What does Your Majesty want this humble daughter to do?" This humble woman is only a real person right now. Compared to many people whose abilities are insufficient, His Majesty might have entrusted the wrong person. "

Luo Liya said without feeling humiliated, but when Bi You heard it, he laughed: "Do you think I am really as stupid as the rumors say? I have always known clearly that something like 'fire provokes the phoenix' has happened today. I had originally intended to send you to the Greenwood Kingdom under some other name after the martial arts competition, but now, I feel that it would be wisest to explain things to you clearly. "

This time, not only Luo Liya, even Wu Kong was confused. He had no idea what Bi You was talking about.

Seeing their faces at a loss, Bi You sighed and continued, "I want you all to go to the Greenwood Country and do two things for me. First, I want you all to find a way to improve your true qi, you all are the hope of the Blue Water Country, and I originally wanted to send you all here in the name of rewards after the martial arts competition. Since I've made the decision today, I'm not willing to beat around the bush, but the second thing is to help me find the evidence that Huo Chou Feng and her mother are hiding in the Greenwood Country.

Luo Liya and Wukong were both stunned as they didn't expect Bi You to say such a thing. Luo Liya was stunned for a moment and then muttered, "Your majesty, you mean …" You want us to go to the Greenwood Country? Let us work for the Emperor? "However, we are still students. Compared to the experts from the Royal Academy, we are still lacking by just a little bit."

"I know, but I am very clear about your previous achievements. Your poison techniques and your pets, do you think that I am the same as the rumors in the outside world — a muddleheaded monarch?" It's just that for the past ten years or so, the Kingdom of Tianyin did not put too much thought into national affairs. Now that the Fire Nation is eyeing us covetously, it's time for war to begin again. We're not the emperors who are afraid of death, but the common people of the world must not be bullied by that old fart, Dongli Xian. "

Bi You slowly opened his mouth, a complex expression flashed across his face, the previous playful look completely gone, Luo Liya and Wu Kong looked at each other, not knowing how to react.

She only wanted to cultivate properly. Before she had the ability to do so, she had no interest in matters like fighting for power and profit.

As if he had seen through her thoughts, Bi You continued, "The main goal of letting you go to the Greenwood Country is to practice martial arts and raise your cultivation. This way, you can prepare sufficient reserves of martial arts before the war begins. If you disagree, no one will listen to me, even if I am to use imperial power to suppress you, that's why I have a good talk with you. Luo Liya, don't disappoint my expectations for you. "

When Wu Kong heard his words, he was very excited. He cupped his hands and said with a bow, "Wu Kong is under the orders of His Majesty. As long as it is beneficial to the people of the world, Wu Kong is fine even if he is smashed to pieces."

He could empathise with this displaced life. If they were to fight again in the future, the ones who would suffer would be the commoners. Wu Kong's heart was kind and he naturally would not want this to happen.
