Emperor Yongcheng's face was gloomy for a moment, "Do you really think I won't kill you?"

"Your Majesty is now in the world, holding the power of life and death. When the emperor is angry, he is buried in millions of corpses and blood flows. His wife is just a woman. Your Majesty naturally wants to kill him." Xie Luan is not afraid at all, and every word is covered with thorns, which makes Emperor Yongcheng's face change again and again.

Emperor Yongcheng was choked by her words, and his face turned pale. If someone else had changed, I would have to bear the wrath of the emperor, but in the end... she is different. Perhaps... she dared to be so presumptuous because of this!

Emperor Yongcheng sighed, not knowing whether it was for her to be presumptuous or for her to let her be presumptuous himself.

"Since you guessed that I met you, I wonder, have you guessed why I wanted to see you?" When I spoke again, my tone was already helpless.

Xie Luan raised his eyebrows, "It is a serious crime to guess the holy intention, and the wife does not have that courage."

Emperor Yongcheng was choked again. Are you not brave enough? What if you are a little bigger?

"Your Majesty has anything to say, please be honest! The Empress can't take an hour or two to take a cloak." No longer quarrel, Xie Luanyin lowered her eyes coldly, and she didn't want to chat with Li Yong here again.

"Sit down first, then talk." Emperor Yongcheng didn't say anything else. He paused and said, and then he took the lead in sitting down at the stone table.

Then, he said, "Xiao Shunzi, go and make some refreshments."

"Yes." Outside the pavilion, a little eunuch with a low eyebrows responded and walked away quickly.

Xie Luan was not pretentious and sat down opposite him.

Brocade mats were laid on the stone bench early, neither hard nor cold. I don’t know if it was because of this, Xie Luanyin’s eyebrows and eyes seemed to be relieved a little.

Seeing this, Emperor Yongcheng also brought a few soft and soft eyebrows, "How do you feel when you go back to Beijing this time? Can you go to the Duke Dingguo Mansion to see it?"

"This time I come back, of course I can't compare to the last time I'm thrilling, but I've never been at ease. I've been hanging all day long, up and down. As for the Duke Ding Mansion... what should I do? No matter how good it is, it's not my home."

This sentence means something in it, and the person who speaks and listens knows it.

No matter how good the capital is, it is not her home. No matter how much it is made up for, she will never let go of some things.

Emperor Yongcheng's throat was slightly astringent. After pondering for a moment, he said, "I believe you should have heard of what is being argued in the court recently." Emperor Yongcheng is not a fool. A person like Qi Shen still has not moved his troops. He is just pretending to be stupid and knowing nothing.

Xie Luanyin was not afraid to admit it, "Your Majesty should be here to give us a prophet today, your decision?" The corner of his mouth curled up, with two points of mocking, as if she didn't care what Emperor Yongcheng made. Only she knew that her chest was already tense quietly.

Emperor Yongcheng stared at her with a pair of peach blossom eyes, "How I decide depends on you and how I make a choice."

Choice? These two words made Xie Luan's heart suddenly feel cold. It was really Cao Qianqian's pillow, was she guessed it?

Xie Luan was frightened by force and said calmly, "How to make a decision? Your Majesty should open the skylight and speak loudly!"

"Since you have heard of the affairs in the court, you must know that I have difficulties. Qi Shen did a good job in Shaanxi, which is great. Not only did he hold heavy troops, he defeated the Tatars, so that they would not dare to violate the Great Peripheral Pass again for several years. Moreover, you and I know where the food and wages for war came from."

After hearing this, Xie Luan sneered, "The court has shortened the military rations of the frontline soldiers, but Qi Shen can't watch the soldiers who follow him through life and death starve to death. He thought of a way to solve this matter. Will he be criticized by His Majesty for this?"

"Shaanxi is now open up wasteland and farming, which is different from the chaos in various places. The people are rich and the people are determined. I heard that there are still county schools that have been established to capture the scholars. Among the people, he is even more concerned about the people's hearts, and everyone regards him as a reborn parent. In the army, his prestige is increasing day by day. People in the army are most afraid of only accepting commanders and not kings. Of course, I have trusted Qi Shen's loyalty to the court, but people's minds change, and their power is the easiest to change a person. I can't bet on the future. In Shaanxi, how can I feel assured that Qi Shen will just go back like this? Wouldn't that make him feel like a fish in water? Who can guarantee that he will not behave in the future?"

Xie Luan's eyes were already cold and the mocking smile on the corners of her mouth was even deeper. For nothing, what's the use of saying too much? The person who sat in that seat was indeed the first to inherit was suspicion.

"So... how can your Majesty be at ease and calmly back to Shaanxi?"

In Shaanxi, Qi Shen spent too much effort. Judging from the current situation, the power held in his hand cannot be released. If it is released, it will be a fish on the table and can be slaughtered by others, but it cannot be held too tightly. If it is tight, it will also be a death talisman. If you are not careful, you will be respectful and intend to rebel, you will be detained. Just like the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion back then, you will be afraid that you will be destroyed.

Therefore, the best way is naturally to go back and return to Shaanxi. As Emperor Yongcheng said, there is a territory carefully established by Qi Shen. Only when he returns can he be like a fish in water and gain the power of self-protection in this increasingly chaotic world.

As for the future... Xie Luan's eyes were cold and cold. She had no feelings for the court, and there was a deep hatred between them. The so-called loyalty had long been wiped out by their coldness. Now, looking at Li Yong, she felt cold and a hint of uncontrollable hatred and disgust. Let's talk about what happened in the future!

"You should know that in the past, many princes would send a child to the capital or pay tribute to Shu Kingdom. In order to be assured by the court, they would send a child to stay in the capital to show their loyalty."

"Proton?" Xie Luan curled coldly in the corner of her mouth, "Qi Shenke and I have no children to leave for you to show our loyalty." Even if there is, she would never allow it.

"Yes! You don't have children. But... I see what Qi Shen values ​​you. With you, he will not act rashly."

Actually, I guessed it long ago. "Are you planning to let me be a hostage again?" Of course, this is considered as an emperor. Could it be that there is no other selfishness?

Xie Luanyin didn't think Li Yong had such a deep affection for her. If it were indeed true, why could he give up her easily and not fight for it? After all, he liked her, but he didn't like her enough, at least not as good as Power.

Perhaps, this is what Li Yong really wants to see.

Didn’t she always think that Qi Shen is kind to her and regard her as a treasure? He wanted her to see that Qi Shen is no different from him.

For men, no matter how beautiful or liked women they are, they are not as powerful as their hands.
