As soon as I walked out of the cell, I accidentally saw a light leaf fluttering and falling on the bluestone road. A breeze passed by, and the withered leaf used its last strength to hold on to the wind's wings, but in the end it still struggled and tossed After a few strokes, it fell into a piece of bright yellow, and the dust returned to its original place.

Yan Yan followed Gao Decai's footsteps anxiously all the way, and when he walked around again and his feet hurt, the Jinluan Palace, which he was no longer unfamiliar with, appeared in front of him.

Walking in, I saw that the previous majestic and cold emperor seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and a very light sigh came from the wind, which seemed to make the listener tremble in the deepest part of his heart.

Yan Yan walked over and knelt down, "This servant has met the emperor, the emperor is auspicious."

The emperor in the dark instantly regained his former majesty and coldness, and said casually, "Get up."

Yanyan stood up shaking with her hands, she couldn't see the expression on his face, let alone what his purpose for summoning her today was.

Only he and she were left in the huge palace, and Gothe didn't know when he had retreated.Yan Yan had no choice but to stand with his head down and hold his breath, he didn't speak, and she didn't dare to make a sound.

The hall was suddenly terribly quiet, so quiet that she could clearly hear the sound of a leaf falling to the ground.

Although she lowered her head, she could still feel the oppression brought by the eyes of the emperor in the dark. Although it was not as sharp as a sword like before, it still made her feel uneasy.

"Your Majesty, what is the purpose of summoning your servants?" She really couldn't bear such a terrible silence, and stared directly at the emperor in the dark.

Feeling that the figure in the dark was obviously taken aback, she didn't expect that she would speak first, and a chuckle came out.He got up and walked out, looking at her thoughtfully, with piercing eyes, no longer looking at her like a sword.

"If I order you to be executed now..." He intentionally said these words very slowly, but there was a gloomy light in his eyes, and he stared closely at the expression on her face.

Listening to his slow and clear words, Yan Yan's heart was startled, did he finally decide to kill her?Was he eager to kill her before she defended herself?All kinds of emotions that have been suppressed since just now beat her chest like a sea tide.All of this is coming to an end, whether it is this time and space or the time and space I came from, everything is going to end.She really misses her parents who are far away in another time and space, and it is about to end, but she will never see them again.

Memories flooded in like a tide, and she couldn't hear her heartbeat. The once simple days were so beautiful at this moment, with sunrise and sunset, flowers blooming and withering.She seemed to see her parents calling her, she seemed to see her mischievous refusal to go to school, she seemed to see her kicking the quilt away when she was sleeping...

In an instant, these beautiful pictures burst apart.She reached out to grab it, but it was all gone, too fast.

It turned out that when hearing the real death sentence, the heart-piercing fear would only turn into reluctance for the person who was still alive and cared the most.

Seeing her standing there in a daze with a pale face, the emperor couldn't help coughing, an unknown smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and raised his voice, "Why don't you beg me to forgive you?"

Yanyan who came back to her senses said with a low smile, "How can a servant change the emperor's decision. If it is useful, the servant would have asked for it long ago." She couldn't help but find it funny. After watching so many TV dramas, an emperor's Will the decision be changed just because of a plea?The more arrogant the emperor is, the harder it is to change his decision.And he, the emperor of the Daxing Dynasty, has been in power for more than 20 years, and countless people have died under his hands, how could he not bear to let her go because she asked for mercy.

"How do you know that I won't spare you if you don't try." The smile on the corner of his mouth deepened, and he squinted at her, but his eyes were still fixed on the expression on her face.

"My servant begged the emperor to forgive me. If I let this servant be spared, this servant will definitely be grateful to His Majesty Long En, and I will never forget it." As he spoke, Yanyan gently twitched the corners of his mouth, knelt down on the ground, and raised his head to meet his gaze.

"Haha" he burst out laughing suddenly, even half-bent, approaching her eyes, "forgive me? What crime did you commit, tell me yourself."

Yan Yan only felt dizzy for a while, as if he was being played like a monkey by this fickle emperor, so he could only follow his words, "The reason why the emperor put the slaves into prison is because the slaves committed a crime, and this crime is just a crime." Doubting whether the servant is a spy of the enemy country. The servant says that the servant is not a spy of the enemy country. It is entirely up to the emperor whether he believes it or not. If he believes it, then the servant is not guilty. If he does not believe it, then the servant is guilty."

"You are such an eloquent girl, she pushed all the questions to me." He suddenly smiled, got up and walked towards the desk, "Get up and talk."

Yan Yan let out a quick low gasp, and he also slumped on his calf.Immediately, he staggered and stood up, thinking in his heart that the ancient rules are really perverted, the kneeling together, the feet are numb and painful.

Now she is more and more confused about the purpose of the coldly smiling emperor calling her to see her, and she also has a faint feeling in her heart that the purpose of the emperor's visit today is not to want her life.

With a "snap", there was a muffled thought in the hall.A bright yellow memorial was thrown out of the emperor's hand and slid to her feet.

"Pick it up and have a look, and tell me what you think after reading it." He relaxed on the back of the chair, stared at her closely, and finally showed his eyes like a knife, pointing straight at her. looking at her.

Bending down to pick up the memorial on the ground, Yan Yan carefully held the memorial, but he still didn't want to open it.In this kind of feudal society, women are not allowed to participate in politics, not to mention that what she holds in her hand is a memorial, which is highly confidential, and only the performer and the emperor know the content of the memorial.Now she is asked to open it to see what's inside, she doesn't know if she should open it or not.If the ever-changing emperor was just playing tricks on her and then convicted her, then the memorial in her hand would be the real evidence.

"Open it." With dignity, he ordered her to open it.

No way, this is what you want me to open.Yan Yan was thinking in his heart, and when he opened the memorial, he saw that the enemy army was about to move again, and the enemy army invaded from time to time. In the past few years of fighting with the enemy army, the people were struggling to survive, food was in short supply, and some even ate grass roots And seek peace and satiation.

Closing the memorial, Yan Yan's heart is heavy, and his heart is very bitter.Because of the war between countries, the pain suffered by the people is beyond what emperors like them can understand.She couldn't help but think of the plots on TV, there are babies who are just waiting to be fed, there are old and frail old people, and there are women who have been separated from their husbands for many years and have been alone in their boudoir... because the emperor made a decision to attack , they can only make a living by boiling grass roots and bark in clear water, while the emperor who is high above him is still rich in clothes and food, and cannot experience the suffering caused by war at all.

"What's your opinion?" The emperor in front of the desk asked.

Stopping the tears in his eyes, Yan Yan firmly raised his head to look at the emperor who didn't eat the warmth and coldness of the world, and only uttered four words, "Quick battle and quick decision."

"What a quick fix!" The emperor stood up in front of the desk.

Yan Yan looked up at the emperor who suddenly stood up, wondering what was his motive for asking her to read the memorial?He approached her and said with a smile, "Because of your words, I can spare your life."

Startled by his words, speechless.Is he saying he spared her?Just because of four words, quick battle and quick decision.

"The enemy army has been at war with our army for so many years, and its strength has long since collapsed. Only by fighting a protracted battle with our army can we have a chance to turn defeat into victory. If our army comes to pursue a victory, the enemy army will definitely be defeated. I was just testing you. "It seems to be explaining why she was spared, and it seems to be talking to himself.

Anyway, he has decided to spare her, no matter whether he is showing kindness or because of other reasons, she just doesn't want to die anyway.

"What do you think of my two sons?" Suddenly he changed the subject and asked her such a question for the first time.She knew that the two sons he was talking about were Qi Feng and the crown prince, but suddenly asked her such a question, how should she answer it.Tell the truth, or say something flattering.

"Then which one of them do you like?" Seeing that she hadn't spoken for a long time, he suddenly asked her in a different way.

As soon as his words fell, Yan Fang suddenly felt completely dizzy.

"If I gave you a chance to choose one of them, who would you choose?"

"I don't want to choose anyone!" Yan Yan replied immediately.

"Why? They all pledged their lives for you." He didn't expect her to refuse so simply, he just wanted to try her.

"Slaves have self-knowledge. First, their status is not worthy of Elder Brother's status. Second, I don't like them either."

He suddenly approached her, half bent over, and whispered in her ear, "Don't forget what you just said."Yan Yanqing couldn't help shrinking back, whether this level has been counted, watching him take two steps aside, suddenly raised his voice, "You two come in."

"Yes", there were several low-pitched answers from outside, but the words were all too familiar.Those were the voices of Qi Feng and the prince.I saw Qi Feng and the prince walking in behind Gao Decai.

Yan Yan was startled, and her body shook slightly. Did they all hear what she just said?

"So far I haven't found evidence that she is an enemy spy, so I decided to keep her by my side and continue to observe." The emperor suddenly walked to the desk and sat down, and said in a deep voice, "I just asked you to listen outside, just to Let me tell you, from now on, put your heart into government affairs, don’t come to see me just because of a court lady. Don’t think that I don’t know everything you have done in prison.”

Yan Yan looked at him and thought, as long as he doesn't kill her now, she must find a chance to escape.
