The Dark and Foolish King: The Fierce and Crazy Concubine Has Infinite Strength

Ye Beimo's heart was shaken, and a murderous look flashed across his face, but on the surface he looked annoyed, and lowered his head and said, "Yes."

Lu Shian rolled his eyes, but he still couldn't give up. A sinister look appeared on his face, and he sneered, "What the prince said just now makes sense. It is really not worth damaging the friendship between the two countries for this matter.

"Since your cousin has died as he deserved, there is no point in you bringing his body. How about I arrange a place for it to go?"

Ye Beimo's heart skipped a beat, and his expression became a little stiff. "What kind of place does the emperor want to arrange for my cousin?"

Lu Shian smiled, covered Lu Yanluo's ears with his hands, looked at him and said word by word: "Chop it up and feed it to the dog."

"You!" Veins bulged on Ye Beimo's forehead, his eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he almost exploded with anger.

The followers around him all had ferocious looks on their faces, and they wished they could explode on the spot.

"What? The prince disagrees? It is you who are seeking peace. Whether you are sincere or not, and whether the peace talks can proceed smoothly, depends on you."

Lu Shian was so aggressive that he finally vented his anger.

Ye Beimo’s teeth were about to break, and his fists in his sleeves were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound.

After pondering for a long time, he finally chose to temporarily swallow his anger and replied with a slightly trembling voice: "Let... the emperor deal with it!"

"Very good." Lu Shi'an responded with satisfaction and winked at the soldiers below the stage. The soldiers immediately understood and went to pick up the body with its head and body separated.

Seeing them dragging the body away, Lu Shian looked at Lu Xiuyuan and his wife in the audience, paused, and ordered: "Give a seat to Prince Yu Nan and his wife."

Lu Xiuyuan raised his eyebrows, thanked him, and pulled his wife to sit in the VIP seat on the side.

Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Lu Yanluo sighed gloomily and said to Lu Shian, "Brother, I want to go back to the palace. I want to be alone."

Lu Shi soothed her red and swollen eyes, his eyes full of tenderness and pity, "Okay, Yanluo, go back and rest. I will come to see you after I'm done with my work, okay?"

"Okay." Lu Yanluo agreed obediently, got up and left.

There was no further trouble afterwards. The entertaining performances continued on stage as planned, and the people below toasted each other in peace.

Xia Younan opened her mouth and took a bite of the strawberry that Lu Xiuyuan fed her. Although she was obviously concerned, she pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "What did you just say to Tang Guojing? You talked for half an hour, right?"

Lu Xiuyuan hesitated for a moment, then replied with a worried look, "I don't want to lie to you, Tang Guojing asked me to marry Tang Ran.

"He said that Tang Ran's old illness relapsed because of me, and that her illness came on suddenly and was serious. Ever since I rejected her, she has been crying every day and has lost her appetite. If this continues, her life may be in danger.

"He said that only if I married her and resolved her worries would it be possible to control her condition."

Xia Younan was silent, lowered his head and said nothing.

Lu Xiuyuan put his arm around her shoulders and comforted her, "Don't worry, I won't marry her. You are my only wife and that's enough for me."

Xia Younan raised his eyes and looked at him, "But Tang Ran's body..."

Although Lu Xiuyuan did not do it on purpose, Tang Ran's old illness relapsed for Lu Xiuyuan, and it might even be life-threatening.

If Lu Xiuyuan just let Tang Ran die, it would seem a bit inhumane.

Lu Xiuyuan sighed, "I won't marry her, but I can't ignore her either. I want to find a famous doctor for her while trying to persuade her. What do you think?"

Xia Younan nodded, "Yeah."

Lu Xiuyuan held her hand and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I made my wife suffer today.

"If Lu Shian hadn't sent someone to notify me to come and rescue you, I wouldn't have known that my wife had suffered such a great injustice. It was my fault as a husband."

Xia Younan looked up at him and asked in surprise: "Did Lu Shian send someone to call you here? What did he say?"

"That coward said that he was forced to not openly protect you because of the situation, so he asked me to apologize to Zhu Jingguo and others and ask for their forgiveness and pardon."

Xia Younan lowered his eyes, feeling a little guilty.

I was just angry just now and didn't consider things from Lu Shian's perspective.

As the emperor, Ye Beimo pressed him hard, and he couldn't produce any evidence that the prince had committed a crime, so how could he allow him to openly cover up for him? He really shouldn't have been so petty and blamed him for kidnapping him.

Lu Xiuyuan sighed slightly and murmured, "After all, you look like the one he loves. Even if you are not her, based on this appearance, he is reluctant to hurt you at all."

Xia Younan was shocked and turned to look at Lu Shian sitting on the dragon throne, his brows furrowed into a knot.

He had lost weight, and it had only been a month since we last saw each other, but he looked much more decadent.

His already sharp features became even thinner, his eyes were dull and numb, without a trace of emotion in them, his lips were sickly pale, and there were some blue stubble around his mouth.

He was still dressed in the same imposing manner, with a purple gold crown on his head, a dragon robe on his body, and auspicious cloud boots on his feet.

But now, he has completely lost his former high-spirited and domineering demeanor, and his whole body is filled with the weak aura of someone who has not recovered from a serious illness.

As if he noticed her gaze, Lu Shian turned his head to look at her. After just one glance, he looked away again.

Xia Younan clearly saw a flash of pain in his eyes.

The face he loved most was right in front of him, but it wasn't the one he loved the most. Xia Younan couldn't understand his feelings.

Zhu Jingguo seemed to come with real sincerity, presenting rare treasures one after another, and praising and complimenting him endlessly. The ministers were so happy that they smiled and nodded, and their hearts were a little floating.

Lu Shian, however, remained expressionless, his eyes like a pool of stagnant water, as if he had no interest in anything, and he responded to Zhu Jingguo's politeness mechanically.

As time went by, the highlight finally arrived.

Ye Beimo stood up and walked to the center of the stage, bowed to Lu Shian, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I believe you have seen our country's sincerity in seeking peace.

"My father not only spent all the country's financial resources to send rare treasures to your country, but also generously gave his most precious treasures to Your Majesty. Would Your Majesty like to see them?"

"What is it?" Lu Shian asked casually.

Ye Beimo answered proudly, "My father's most beloved little daughter, this prince's younger sister, and the most beloved little princess of Zhujing Country."

Lu Shian remained calm and replied calmly: "Not interested."

Ye Beimo was stunned, and reluctantly threw out the temptation, "Your Majesty, my sister's peerless beauty is famous throughout the world, and she can be called the most beautiful woman in the entire Zhujing Kingdom.

"Whether it's her graceful figure or her unparalleled appearance, she is worthy of the title 'the most beautiful woman in the world'. When she was still a young girl, countless princes and nobles asked my father to marry her, but he rejected them all.

"This time, for the sake of friendship between the two countries, my father reluctantly gave up his sister to be your consort. How can your Majesty refuse to meet her?"

Lu Shian still couldn't muster the slightest interest, and still had that cold and unsympathetic expression, "I said, I'm not interested."

Ye Beimo frowned, secretly cursing Lu Shian for being so ungrateful. He sent his country's princess to marry, but he was so disrespectful that he didn't even want to see her.

This won’t do. He must arrange Qiandai into the palace and make her favored!
