Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain
Chapter 557: Completely Unaware
Even forces that have always been at odds with the Tieyun Army have joined the ranks of begging for mercy. They know that now is not the best time to stir up trouble.
Seeing that his orders were ignored, Jiang Qiyuan became even more angry, "You..."
Ding Tu laughed coldly at the side and said, "It seems that the people of Qian Kingdom despise the words of the monarch so much. No wonder they have done nothing all these years and allowed themselves to be bullied."
As soon as these words were spoken, the court was filled with hostile looks.
"Eunuch Ding, please be careful with your words. This is the Qian Kingdom. You should respect us and our monarch." An official reprimanded.
Ding Tu refused to give in. "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you. Don't you understand this truth? You don't respect yourselves, so how can you expect an outsider to do so?"
At this time, Wu Yungui stood up and advised Jiang Qiyuan: "Your Majesty, if you want to win the respect of others, you must first respect yourself. Since the Tieyun Army has been ordered not to train privately, Mo Tian has violated the ban and should be severely punished."
"General Wu is right." Ding Tu interrupted, "Emperor Qian, if you can't even handle a mere general, how can we believe in your promise to me, Ying Xia?"
These words hit the nail on the head, and Jiang Qiyuan suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He had promised to exchange the northern territory for Yingxia's support so that he could enjoy a peaceful and wealthy life. Losing Yingxia means losing everything...
Absolutely not.
His wealth and glory must not be lost.
Ying Xia gave him the most wealth, and he could not lose this support at all costs.
"Master Tu has a point. If we can't even control a small army commander, how can we govern the country and bring peace to the world? Come here, Commander Zhou dared to ignore the imperial edict and disobey orders. Capture him and put him in the inner court."
"Your Majesty, please think twice. Since ancient times, the Tieyun Army has only obeyed the orders of the direct descendants of the Qian Kingdom. Commander Zhou has not done anything to betray the Qian Kingdom. Such a severe punishment may chill the hearts of the soldiers."
General Meng stepped forward to defend Mo Tian.
He secretly cursed in his heart that this foolish emperor was deceived by foreign eunuchs and dared to attack the Tieyun Army.
Since the emperor doesn't care about the rules, he can't care about much else.
"Your Majesty, since ancient times, it is natural for soldiers to obey the monarch. Commander Zhou disobeyed the imperial edict and should be punished according to the law! What about saying that only the royal family can decide the fate? Such outdated customs should have been abolished long ago." Wu Yungui responded tit for tat, vowing to make Mo Tian be punished, and he could not reach an agreement with General Meng.
"Shut up, you little boy, how can you arbitrarily change the rules set by our ancestors?" Just as the two were arguing, a deep and powerful voice interrupted them.
Everyone turned around in shock, only to see General Wu standing at the entrance of the palace in good spirits, completely unlike the serious illness as previously rumored.
Jiang Qiyuan widened his eyes and watched in disbelief as Wu Mengchuan walked steadily into the hall.
Wu Yungui was even more shocked. His father was clearly poisoned and bedridden, so how could he suddenly recover?
"You saved Wu Mengchuan?" Nangong Yue asked in surprise in the mansion, "The old man was poisoned, and even the imperial doctors were helpless. How could you cure him in just a few days?"
"It's just using poisonous insects to absorb the toxins. This is the most basic method." Jiang Xue said lightly: "Wu Yungui is trying to take advantage of the previous conflict to deal with Mo Tian. But in the entire Qian Kingdom, only General Wu can suppress Wu Yungui."
"Knowing that Mo Tian might be convicted for this, you still let him openly challenge Jiang Qiyuan. Your methods are really cruel." Nangong Yue curled her lips.
"My goal is to weaken Jiang Qiyuan's prestige." Xiao Zhan explained: "Once the emperor loses his authority, his rule will be shaky. His subordinates will no longer respect him, and it will be much easier to overthrow him."
"Since he is willing to sell out his country in order to become emperor, I will make him suffer the consequences."
Jiang Xue put down the teacup and continued, "General Wu is a founding hero, and his influence far exceeds that of General Meng. With his protection, neither Wu Yungui nor Jiang Qiyuan dare to act rashly."
At this time, an attendant ran in excitedly and reported: "Princess, General Zhou is back."
Jiang Xue and Xiao Zhan smiled at each other: "Look, isn't he back safe and sound?"
In a hotel room, Wu Yungui angrily smashed the wine jar in his hand to pieces. Seeing this, the guys around him were so scared that they dared not approach.
Only Ding Tu sat opposite, with a sneer on his face: "Don't be so angry, things are unpredictable. If you get furious when something unexpected happens, how can you achieve anything?"
"My father was clearly bedridden, how come he suddenly got better?" Wu Yungui wiped his mouth. The strong liquor burning his throat made him even more irritated.
He didn't understand why he had no idea that his father had recovered even though they lived under the same roof.
Could it be that his father was on guard against him?
"Princess Changle is very scheming. I'm afraid she has convinced the old general to be wary of you. It looks like your days in the mansion will not be easy."
Ding Tu tapped his fingers on the table. He knew very well that after this incident, Wu Yungui's power would be greatly reduced. His interest in this princess was stronger than chasing Si Ruochen.
"Why are you so unhappy, sir?" At this time, a gentle voice came.
Wu Yungui turned around and saw a graceful and pretty woman smiling at him.
Her unique temperament instantly calmed Wu Yungui's anger, and he responded politely: "Excuse me, young lady, it's just some trivial matters at home. May I ask your name?"
"My name is Cao Zhiqing, and I'm from Beixi." She tilted her head slightly and answered gracefully, mentioning Princess Changle's name.
When this name was mentioned, a barely perceptible ruthlessness flashed in Cao Zhiqing's eyes.
This subtle change did not escape Ding Tu's eyes, and he felt that things were becoming interesting.
"If Miss Cao is interested, why not have a chat?"
Upstairs, the servant watched Cao Zhiqing sit down next to Ding Tu and asked the man in blue beside him if he needed to intervene.
This gentle man was named Murray, and he was a member of the Beixi royal family.
Originally, the task of negotiating the land division should have been completed by him alone, but Cao Zhiqing insisted on going along.
His mission also includes sending Cao Zhiqing to the Qian Kingdom Palace as a concubine, which confuses Murray.
After all, Cao Zhiqing was once the concubine of the fourth prince, but now she is going to become the concubine of the monarch of another country.
Despite his doubts, he decided to follow the orders of Crown Prince Shangguan Jin to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Looking at Ding Tu's meaningful eyes, Murray shook his head, "That's it, no need to disturb them."
He knew that Ding Tu had successfully infiltrated the officialdom of the Qian Kingdom, and perhaps he could use this to speed up the progress of the mission and allow himself to return home as soon as possible.
Murray turned and asked the attendant, "How is Mr. Si?"
Then he walked to another room, opened the door, and saw Si Ruochen lying quietly on the bed, soundly sleeping.
