Chapter 78 That Sweetness
Ye Qiongying withdrew her attention, said something to Uncle Ye, and followed An Yu to the carriage at the back.
In the carriage, Eunuch Liang was sitting on one side. When he saw Ye Qiongying coming over, he quickly asked her to sit down as well and poured her some tea.
"Just now Officer Yang came over and told me about the Xili Kingdom. I wonder what you think, Miss Yang?"
This carriage built by the royal family is indeed good. The carriage in the Ye Mansion is already good enough, but this carriage is more spacious and comfortable, and even has a special tea table and soft couch for resting.
"Eunuch Liang, that man is indeed from Xili. As for whether Xili has any intention of rebellion, I am not sure." Ye Qiongying explained her findings in detail, and then said, "I think it is better to report this matter to Your Majesty just in case. Now that Dongchen has caused unrest in the border town, if Xili is added, if we don't prepare early, I am afraid... the tragedy many years ago will happen again."
Back then, it was Xili who launched a surprise attack and massacred soldiers and civilians in the border town. This bloody act shocked the whole country.
The old man of the Ye family was still alive at the time, and Ye's father was still young and strong. He immediately asked for orders to go to the battlefield and drove the invading Xili army out of the border of Da Qi. Then he counterattacked all the way to the capital of Xili, forcing the old king to beg for mercy. He expressed on the spot his willingness to submit to Da Qi and presented a peace agreement with a seal.
In Da Qi, harmony is still valued.
Since the other party was willing to make peace, they accepted the agreement.
The reputation of the Ye family army once again spread far and wide.
During those years, the surrounding countries and tribes, large and small, became much more peaceful and did not dare to act rashly.
Until three years ago, a new round of war broke out in Dongchen Kingdom.
Logically speaking, although Grandpa Ye is no longer with us, Ye's father is not old, and Ye Qiongying's brothers have grown up. The children of the Ye family are not playboys. They have been diligent in learning martial arts since childhood and are not inferior to their ancestors.
No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be so easy for them all to die tragically.
But they died, not a single one was left alive.
The only news that was reported back to the capital was their death, their unrecognizable corpses, and the blood-stained red tasseled spear.
A Xili had massacred the entire border town;
Dongchen caused the tragic death of a famous general of Da Qi.
If these two countries join hands...
Da Qi is unprepared and will suffer heavy losses!
Eunuch Liang also had a somewhat sad look on his face. After hearing what Ye Qiongying said, he poured more tea for her and said:
"Don't worry, Miss Ye. I will inform His Majesty of this matter as soon as possible. But the journey is long and we don't know what will happen. Miss Ye, you have to be careful along the way."
Ye Qiongying agreed immediately.
Even if Manager Liang didn't mention it, she wouldn't let her guard down.
When she went to the border town, she wanted to investigate the truth behind the tragic deaths of her father and brother and to make Dongchen pay with blood.
If the Xili Kingdom is also involved, then she will have one more enemy.
Since it concerns the safety of the border town, it is impossible for Ye Qiongying not to pay attention.
The two talked for a while before Ye Qiongying got out of the carriage and went back to the front. Before leaving, she patted An Yu who was sitting outside:
"Come in, and be good and obedient."
"Anyu knows," Anyu nodded, "Sister, be careful! There are so many bad guys, don't let them beat you up and make you bleed! It will hurt so much."
There weren't too many people attacking just now, and everyone responded in time, so no one died. However, there were still some injured soldiers, but their injuries were not too serious.
An Yu probably saw the injured soldiers and was worried that Ye Qiongying was also injured.
"Okay, sister will be careful. Come on, open your mouth." Ye Qiongying pinched something in her hand and quickly stuffed it into An Yu's mouth after he opened it. "Good boy, you can have candy. Okay, come in!"
After she finished speaking, she walked over to Uncle Ye, climbed onto the horse, turned around and saw An Yu still sitting there, and waved at him, asking him to go in.
An Yu finally reacted, pulled aside the curtain and entered the carriage.
As soon as the curtain was lowered, Liang Dehai quickly knelt down on the other side and gave the main seat to His Majesty.
Seeing Di Yuan's absent-minded look, Liang Dehai asked worriedly:
"Your Majesty? You are…"
When Di Yu'an heard the name, he came back to his senses and was about to speak, but he felt something in his mouth, which made him close it again. He just shook his head at Liang Dehai and sat down on the couch.
He was an emperor after all, and he had been injured in assassination attempts by his uncles.
Assassins, poisoning, honey traps...
All means are available.
He was extremely vigilant, had a strong aversion to all kinds of beauties, and was even careful about what he ate.
When Di Yu'an felt Ye Qiongying stuffing something into his mouth, his first reaction was naturally to dodge and spit it out.
But then he thought of his current disguised identity and forced himself to endure it.
Then, a hint of sweetness spread in my mouth.
Just like the way Ye Qiongying smiled at him, it was so sweet that it made him feel uneasy and his mind was not clear.
Now, he was no longer under Ye Qiongying's supervision, so he should spit out what was in his mouth immediately.
However...he actually felt a little reluctant.
The sweet little candy melted in his mouth little by little, making his dark heart seem happy.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty?" Liang Dehai didn't want to disturb His Majesty, but the affairs of Xili Kingdom were urgent, and he was not sure whether His Majesty could hear the whole matter if he let him stay outside the curtain just now.
In addition, for some reason, His Majesty sat there and a smile slowly appeared on his face?
That's right, a smile.
That smile was so pure and joyful that it even made Liang Dehai tremble with fear.
This is not like Your Majesty!
Could it be that Your Majesty has been bewitched?
"What's the matter?" At this time, the candy in his mouth had melted, and Di Yu'an looked at Liang Dehai with a frown.
Yes, this is the normal demeanor, Your Majesty.
Liang Dehai breathed a sigh of relief, summarized what the officer and Ye Qiongying had said, and then said everything, and then asked:
"Your Majesty, what should we do? At this time, you should return to the capital and stay in the palace. As for Miss Ye, I will find a way to make it right for you."
Emperor Yuan glanced at him and said:
"Why are you in such a hurry? The more time has come, the less you should be in a hurry. Besides, it is precisely because of those bastards that I have to go to the border town to meet them. Since General Ye passed away, the news from this border town has always been intermittent. How could such a big thing happen and no one in the other city knew about it?
If it weren’t for this trip, we might have to wait until everyone reached the capital before we could get any news!
I just want to go and see for myself what is going on.
As for the capital...
Send a message back and ask the secret guards to prepare, that's it..."
Liang Dehai quickly listened to His Majesty's instructions and kept them in mind.
Outside, the large army had already set off again.
Du Ming was surrounded by soldiers in a listless state. He moved his tongue in his mouth, quietly spit out something, and caught it in his palm.
