step by step

Chapter 227 Sending to Chongji
Emperor Donglin is an emperor who has nothing to gain and can't afford to be early. For the sake of the great cause, he can sacrifice everyone around him.

In his eyes, what is the Ye family who is not relatives or relatives?
When the disaster was approaching, he could only wish to send the Ye family out immediately in exchange for peace.

Ye Wenxuan thought of everything the other party said, and his heart twitched a few times, "How did our Ye family offend you, and actually want to use such a despicable way to plot against us!"

Qu Lizhen patted him on the shoulder, "Ye Zhaoyan's family is just a daughter, so what if it's the daughter of the Ye family? In this era of the jungle, women are going to give birth to children for their husbands. The general is reluctant to let her marry Beiliang, so it must be I don't like this desolate land, if it is replaced by a rich country like Chongji, it must be enough."

"You are so ambitious, do you think that Chongji will not be able to see it, and you will be plotted by you obediently?!"

"I don't need to bother the general." Qu Lizhen smiled indifferently, "If the general is unwilling to agree to Beiliang's agreement and wait for Ye's daughter to marry another country, then it will be useless for the general to make up for it."

Ye Wenxuan stared at Qu Lizhen with eyes wide open, his voice hoarse and dry, "Despicable! Even if I fight this old bone to death, I will never agree!"

Qu Lizhen shook his head: "Why is the general so stubborn? This world is driven only by the word profit. Even without me, there will be other people who will take advantage of this."

He stood up slowly, and the footsteps behind him became more and more clear. After a while, several maids helped a woman into the dungeon. She was wearing a red dress and a gold hairpin and emerald jewels. Although her eyes were tightly closed, she was still bright and compelling. .

It was Ye Zhaoyan.

At this moment, her eyes were closed tightly, her clear face was expressionless, and the biting heroism between her brows had dissipated a lot, making people feel pitiful.

When Ye Wenxuan saw this, his mind was torn apart. If he remembered correctly, this gorgeous dress with a different style was the wedding dress used by the royal family of the Chongji Kingdom.

Many years ago, in that magnificent secret room, he had seen such a dress.

The phoenix on it is lifelike, showing the dignity of the owner during his lifetime.
It's just that the brilliance on that shirt is half faded, not as bright as the one in front of me.

Qu Lizhen admired Ye Wenxuan's groggy expression with satisfaction, and continued: "I heard that women who marry into the royal family in Chongji country all wear this wedding dress. If Miss Ye is unwilling to get married, the general will persuade her for me and let her Take the initiative to sacrifice yourself for the Ye family, so as not to be forced to go on the road when the time comes, and make an ugly mess."

After finishing speaking, he took the cold water on the side and splashed it on Ye Zhaoyan's face, and Ye Zhaoyan flinched from the sudden cold, shaking his chaotic head lightly, his eye feathers flickered twice, but he couldn't wake up after all.

"It seems that Miss Ye is immersed in a good dream and can't hear the general's persuasion."

Ye Wenxuan's eyes were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth and stared at him, couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted angrily: "Shameless villain! You are really bullying people too much!"

"The one who bullies others too much is Emperor Donglin, I advise General Ye to think twice!" Qu Lizhen said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, very good!" Ye Wenxuan was in a hurry, his mouth and nose were bleeding, "I want to see if you Beiliang can bear His Majesty's anger!"

"Just try it, General Ye. I'll wait and see what kind of status Miss Ye holds in Emperor Donglin's heart."

Without waiting for Ye Wenxuan's reaction, Qu Lizhen put away his smile, and said to the maid outside the door with a calm face: "Please ask a secret decree from the dead son to send Miss Ye to Chongji Kingdom in person."

Marven Ye glared at him angrily, "What are you doing?"

"Since General Ye is obsessed with obsession, there is nothing I can do. I hope General Ye can bear the consequences."

"Wait!" Marven Ye still called out to him.

He was silent for a moment, and finally lowered his head, his voice hoarse, "I promise you."

"What does General Ye mean?"

Ye Wenxuan raised his face and said seriously: "The old man is willing to share Hexi with Beiliang, and ask Uncle Qu Guo to spare Zhaoyan."

"This is the man who knows the times and is Junjie!"

The corners of Qu Lizhen's mouth were slightly curved, revealing a sinister arc, and then he left the dungeon with a flick of his sleeves.

The next day, Ye Wenxuan and Ye Zhaoyan were respectfully sent out of the Wuwu Gate by the Beiliang royal family.

The blood on his body has been cleaned up, and his clothes are brand new, but his pale complexion and faintly sluggish steps exposed everything.

Two hours before leaving, Qu Lizhen didn't let go of handing over the document to him.

If you can't take this thing away, even if Ye Zhaoyan regains his freedom and escapes to the ends of the earth, as long as Qu Lizhen's words are true, the things on the document will make Ye Zhaoyan have no place to hide.

And the Ye family will also suffer disaster.

After the First World War in Hexi, Chu Li will let the Ye family go as promised, but what if there are more disputes in the future?

There is no guarantee that this matter will not be used as a fuss again.

How dare he bet?
When the two parties were at a stalemate, Tuoba Yuan, the national teacher, proposed to let Ye Wenxuan subdue the Heart Linking Gu, and then hand over the document to him.

This kind of Gu poison needs to take an antidote every half a month, otherwise he will die of heart-piercing pain, not afraid that Ye Wenxuan will violate the covenant.

What Tuoba Yuan said was grandiose, but what he actually thought was that after the Battle of Hexi, there would be more opportunities to use Marven Ye.

His suggestion was supported by Qu Lizhen.

Ye Wenxuan, who has always acted cautiously and dominated the battlefield with his wits, did not refuse.

Tuoba Yuan gave the antidote to Ye Wenxuan who planted the Gu poison, and promised that he would not have an attack within one month.

When Ye Zhaoyan woke up from his coma, he was already on the carriage leaving the palace.

A familiar and haggard old face came into view. The owner of the face was leaning weakly against the corner of the carriage, and the disappointment on his body exposed to no one was too strong.

Ye Zhaoyan was a little unsure if he had read it wrong.

She exclaimed: "Grandpa—"

She had never seen such a depressed Marven Ye.

Ye Wenxuan opened his eyes, his reaction was unusually slow, unlike his usual alertness and quickness.

Seeing Ye Zhaoyan wake up, he raised his hand to stroke her soft black hair, and said with a gentle smile, "Zhaoyan, I'm fine now, we're going to join Ye's army soon, don't be afraid."

Ye Zhaoyan's eyes were filled with tears.

She had already sharply seen the blood stains on Marven Ye's collar.

She has been practicing martial arts with him since she was a child, and she can detect abnormalities just by listening to the breath of his speech. How can she not know Ye Wenxuan's current state?
Ye Zhaoyan shook his shoulders: "Grandpa, you are injured!"

Ye Wenxuan is not only excellent in martial arts, and ordinary people can't hurt him, more importantly, even if he is injured, he is rarely weak.

Ye Zhaoyan was disturbed by his embarrassed appearance now.

Ye Wenxuan shook his head and said in relief: "It's just some skin trauma."

"Why did Grandpa lie to Zhaoyan?!" Ye Zhaoyan choked up, "Zhaoyan is no longer a child!"
