"Since you've prepared everything, what else can I do?" The Emperor was secretly delighted in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be angry.

The Prince did not mind and smiled. He got up and said, "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave." Since his goal had been achieved, there was no need for him to engage in a verbal dispute with the Emperor. Even if he won, it would be meaningless.

Did he really think that he was threatening the Emperor?

The Emperor frowned and did not answer …

Shiqing was already a piece of chess, so his queen couldn't possibly be Shiqing.

The prince didn't give the emperor a chance to reject him. He threatened and said in a serious tone, "Your majesty, Yanbei needs the trust of the imperial government."

The marriage alliance was the best trust. The marriage alliance between the imperial government and Yanbei was enough to pacify the uneasy hearts of the ordinary citizens of Yanbei.

"She has already expelled herself from the Xiao Family." His hostility towards Yan Bei had been too obvious lately. Since he didn't want to make a move on Yan Bei now, he had to pacify him.

"Yan Bei is someone from Yanbei, not someone from Xiao Family. Even if she has already expelled herself from Xiao Family, she is still a Shiqing from Yanbei, a Shiqing from Yanbei." The Prince powerfully said, and this also showed his attitude towards Shiqing.

"Earlier on, she ate and lived together with a man in the army. If she suffered losses, she could be his concubine, unable to be his retainer." The emperor knows that his harem needs a woman from the north. Rather than taking her in as someone with an unknown identity who doesn't know what intentions the emperor has, he wouldn't mind leaving Infanta Shiqing in the harem.

But it had to be the concubine, not the queen. His concubine was someone he had spent money to raise in the harem, but the empress was someone he respected in the Revelation.

Xiao Shiqing's responsibility was definitely not an ordinary trouble.

"She is no longer your sister." The Emperor stressed again, but the Prince pretended that he did not hear. He only said: "Your Majesty, if you were to give this subject a warning, would you just say that you cannot stand up to Shiqing?"

"No way!" The Emperor stubbornly refused.

Being the Empress, being able to rope in some power for him and give up the position of Queen to Shiqing, was truly too much of a loss.

"Alright …" The prince did not continue to pester him and cupped his hands towards the emperor. This King will take his leave now that the woman you made the Empress has appeared. "

He once again called himself "This King", it could be seen that the King was unhappy, the Emperor had heard it, and knew that there was definitely something fishy about the Prince's sudden retreat, but under the current circumstances, he could only pretend to be stupid, unless he put Shiqing in the back.

The prince paused when he turned around, and looked at the emperor's left rear with an unfathomable gaze. That glance was very meaningful, for a moment, the emperor thought Xiao Jiu'an had discovered his plan, but luckily Xiao Jiu'an had only glanced at it once and then walked out, without any intention to make a move.

After the prince left, a man dressed in black walked out from behind the emperor. He knelt in front of the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, Prince Yanbei has discovered us."

There were a total of twelve people behind the Emperor, and they were all highly trained by Li Yuan. Any one of them could be considered top experts in the martial arts world, and the reason why the Emperor had gathered them was so that he could take the risk to ambush and kill Xiao Jiu'an.

He knew that there were forty thousand Yanbei Army s outside the city, but he could not stop Xiao Jiu'an if he wanted to rebel. Rather than letting Xiao Jiu'an lead his troops into the palace, it would be better for him to strike first and kill Xiao Jiu'an first, leaving the Yanbei Army without a leader.

What the Emperor did not expect was that Xiao Jiu'an did not have any thoughts of rebelling, and even planned to go over to Beichen's side.

It was naturally better to let Xiao Jiu'an die than to let him die in the Revelation.

Of course, he wasn't certain if what Xiao Jiu'an had said was true, but he still wanted to take a gamble …

He bet that Xiao Jiu'an did not want to rebel, so he did not let them do it, but allowed Xiao Jiu'an to leave.

After all, if he were to make a move today, the Yanbei Army would definitely go against him.

"I hope that this Emperor has made the right decision." Hearing the black-clothed man's report, the Emperor felt a trace of unease.

He was afraid, Xiao Jiu'an knew that there was someone behind him, so he intentionally said that he did not want to go back, and intentionally said that he wanted to go to Beichen.

However, as long as Xiao Jiu'an was willing to go to Beichen, he didn't mind giving him another chance.

"Follow him... Once he enters Beichen's territory, think of a way to kill him. " The Emperor closed his eyes and ordered coldly.

Under the bed, how could he allow others to sleep soundly? If Xiao Jiu'an did not die, he would never be at ease.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The black clothed man accepted the order and left.

… ….

The moment when the prince walked out of the palace unscathed, everyone in the capital who was paying attention to the palace knew what was going on.

Some people guessed that the Emperor and the Prince had agreed on a deal, and some people were worried that Xiao Jiu'an had murdered the Emperor and was preparing to rebel.

All sorts of rumors were circulating in the capital, but none of them had anything to do with Lord Ji.

Now that he was ill and wouldn't appear in front of others for a short period of time, whether it was the reform of the Six Division or the Inspector of Heavenly Secrets, none of this had anything to do with him.

"Master, the Yun Family went to the Prince Yanbei's Mansion today." Madam Ji seemed to have unintentionally mentioned it after taking care of Lord Ji. "Do you think we should make a trip to the Prince Yanbei's Mansion as well? After all, Yun Kai will most likely return. "

"No need. Prince Yanbei will not see us. " When he thought about how he had fainted in the great hall today, how even his old enemies would come to help him, yet the Prince Yanbei had just watched coldly from the side, Lord Ji knew that he had lost a daughter.

Madam Ji stopped the hand that was pinching the quilt for Lord Ji, and her eyes reddened. "Master, the situation at our house right now … How can you expect Lan`er to live in the palace? "

The Ji Family was in a difficult situation right now. He had placed great importance on Lord Ji from the emperor and ordered Lord Ji to take charge of the reform of the six tribes. The Ji Family did not have unparalleled limelight in the capital and had instead been obstructed at every turn.

The Ji Family did not have any place to stand on in the capital. Previously, when the emperor wanted to place importance on Lord Ji, those people did not dare to make a move, but now, Lord Ji was useless. It was impossible for the emperor to protect the Ji Family, so how could those people let him go?
