Ji Yunkai was not a pampered person, nor was he a woman who would never let go. She always knew what was best for himself.

Although she understood in her heart that Xiao Jiu'an's idea was definitely not as beautiful as he said, but it was hard for her to be confused. She did not need Xiao Jiu'an to be magnanimous enough to let her interact with Feng Qi, as long as Xiao Jiu'an was good at acting, she would be satisfied.

Amongst them, the one who felt the most was Xiao Shaorong.

"Esteemed wangfei is really amazing. Your highness won't be angry if you casually throw a tantrum. I have to hug her thighs tightly in the future."

If Xiao Shaorong knew that Ji Yunkai had not acted coquettishly in the first place, and that his king had given way to him, perhaps she would be even more determined to hug Ji Yunkai's thigh for a hundred years.

Cough cough, hugging or not hugging a girl is secondary. The most pressing matter now is to settle all the official matters.

Looking at the three piles of official business on the table, Xiao Shaorong silently wiped away her tears. He did not need to sleep for the next two days!

Leaving all the official matters behind, Xiao Jiu'an took a break and accompanied Ji Yunkai for a lunch before she returned to the city to tell the Emperor about Li Jing.

As the King Fan who gave orders to enter the capital, Xiao Jiu'an could not leave the capital without an order. He needed the Emperor's permission to go to the Black Stone Mountain.

Of course, Xiao Jiu'an was not worried that the emperor would refuse. He had the most reasonable reason, if the emperor dared to say no, he would destroy the palace.

Xiao Jiu'an handed over the cheque in advance. She wanted to enter the palace to see the emperor today, and the emperor would never show him any respect. As soon as he arrived, she was welcomed by eunuchs.

The emperor had already been waiting for Xiao Jiu'an in the imperial study for a while, but when Xiao Jiu'an walked in, he did not have a trace of regret.

It was precisely this person that had never kneeled before him and had never placed him in the eyes of the emperor. This person was truly infuriating, yet he was unable to do anything to him.

Hearing Xiao Jiu'an's words, the emperor smirked and said, "Jiu An is going to Black Stone Mountain? "That's not good. The imperial government has never interfered in the affairs of the martial arts world."

"This is not between the imperial government and the martial arts world, but between this subject and the Devil Sect." He, Xiao Jiu'an, had been slapped in the face and he still wanted to let go. It was simply laughable.

"I heard that the Prince Yanbei's Wife's poison has been cured. If that's not possible, why don't we send the imperial physician over to take a look?" Feng Qi was the head disciple of the Sky Doctor Valley and had even returned to the Feng Family. It could be seen that nothing had happened to Ji Yunkai.

"Even if the poison has not been dispelled, I will not let the Devil Sect off the hook." As for the imperial physician mentioned by the emperor? Xiao Jiu'an pretended not to hear.

Alright, Xiao Jiu'an admitted that whenever this matter was brought up, he would get annoyed, and even the Emperor wouldn't be able to think it through.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago, the Southern Goblin King stayed in the Prince Yanbei's Mansion. This subject heard what he said and intended to send troops to the Revelation." Once the Southern Wilderness went to war with the Revelation, the Emperor would not be able to hold him back.

"The Southern Wilderness' imperial power has changed. The internal strife has just begun, and we are not able to fight against the Revelation for a short period of time. You don't have to worry, Jiu An." The emperor's expression changed as he said stiffly.

Was Xiao Jiu'an threatening him? Using the Southern Goblin King to threaten him?

Was Xiao Jiu'an not afraid? Was he trying to punish Xiao Jiu'an for acting as the enemy and selling her own country?

"This subject does not feel at ease. The Southern Wilderness is very ambitious, and it only takes a day to get rid of it. The Revelation is worried, and this subject requests that the Emperor return to Yanbei as soon as possible and eliminate the Southern Wilderness in one fell swoop." It didn't matter if he wasn't allowed to go to Blackrock Mountain, he could just go back to Yanbei.

Once they reached Yanbei, the emperor couldn't do anything. There was nothing he could do.

The Emperor's mouth twitched, and pretended as if he hadn't heard. "Jiu An, when are you going to Black Stone Mountain?" He agreed after saying this.

"Your subject is preparing to leave tomorrow." He knew that the emperor wouldn't let him go to Yanbei and would agree to anything as long as he said he wanted to go back.

"So fast?" He was still thinking of what he could do to delay it.

"Princess's poison can't wait." It didn't matter if the reason was real or fake. He had only put one out on the surface for the sake of everyone's face. If the emperor wasn't stupid, then he wouldn't expose him.

As expected, although the Emperor was stifled, he still agreed in the end. "Return early."

So what if I don't agree?

If he did not agree, the Southern Wilderness might very well send troops against Yan Bei. At that time, even if he was unwilling, he would let Xiao Jiu'an go back to Yan Bei, and this was something he did not want to see.

He would definitely let Xiao Jiu'an return to Yanbei first, but that would only happen after he had a basic level of control over Yanbei. Previously, he did not have the confidence, but now, with the help of Infanta Shiqing, the Emperor was not worried at all.

The moment Xiao Jiu'an left, Li Yuan, who had been hiding in the darkness to protect the Emperor, appeared out of nowhere and kneeled in front of the Emperor, begging him, "Your Majesty, please allow this person to follow Prince Yanbei to Black Stone Mountain."

Twenty years ago, the Demon Sect annihilated his family, he was saved by the late emperor, he had always worked for the imperial family and had no intention of taking revenge on them.

The opportunity had come. He did not want to miss it, and he could not let it go either.

He was old, and he didn't have a second twenty years to live.

He knew it would be like this, so he didn't want to agree to Xiao Jiu'an going to Black Stone Mountain, but unfortunately, he was unable to do anything to Xiao Jiu'an.

"You've decided?" From the bottom of his heart, the Emperor did not want Li Yuan to leave him. Only with Li Yuan here, would he be at ease.

Thinking about what his father had told him before he died, no matter how unhappy the emperor was, he had to endure it.

royal father said, people like Li Yuan cannot be threatened, they can only show mercy.

If one day Li Yuan went to take revenge, not only would he not stop his, he would also help her.

"Decided." He had waited twenty years for this day.

Li Yuan also knew that the emperor was not feeling well, so she added, "If this old man is lucky enough to survive, please accept this old man as a disciple again. If this old man were to die on Black Rock Mountain, the emperor will treat this old man as non-existent."

He had never thought of taking revenge for the emperor. After following two emperors for twenty years, he was very clear on the ruthlessness of the imperial family.

Although the previous two emperors had placed great importance on him, he knew that this importance was all due to his usefulness and loyalty.

As long as he was not used by the emperor, only death awaited him.

He wasn't afraid of death, but before he died, he had to avenge his family …
