Pampering the sea

"It's not beautiful. However, the emperor is too weak and wants personal companionship and protection. You are so strong and you should be selected. Although you are a bit ugly, it is not a problem."

Xin Yue glanced at him angrily, and the smile on the corner of Yan Zhan's mouth rose even more.

"I would like to know, if your emperor really wants to get me into the palace, but I don't want to, what will you do? Help me or help the emperor?"

Yan Zhan was startled, and smiled: "I want to help you."

"Then?"

"It depends on whether you want it or not."

What, it was so mysterious, Xin Yue still wanted to ask, but at this moment, the emperor who was far away had finished his speech, and raised his glass to signal for everyone to drink together.

Yan Zhan stopped whispering to Xin Yue, stood up, raised his wine glass, Xin Yue followed suit, and drank down his stomach with a sip of water and wine.

"Everyone eats and drinks well, so don't be restrained." Zhu Yan drank the wine in his glass, flicked his sleeves, and said dignifiedly and boldly.

Everyone sat down, and gradually, they began to talk again, and the atmosphere gradually heated up.

Xin Yue touched Yan Zhan's shoulder and asked, "Hey, you just said you wanted to help me, how can you help me?"

Yan Zhan looked at her and smiled softly.

"What are you laughing at, just say it."

"Come closer."

Xin Yue stretched his head suspiciously, and looked at Yan Zhan with clear and dark eyes without blinking.

The man Ruyu's face gradually approached, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he whispered in her ear: "The method is very simple, tell the emperor that you are already my woman, and that's it."

Yan Zhan turned his head and saw the young girl Xuenen's melon-seeded face was flushed with a thin blush. I don't know if it was because of the hot atmosphere, or because of a little bit of shyness from her daughter's family.

Before Xin Yue had time to say anything, he felt a bright light swaying toward him.She dodged and flipped the table to block the unexpected attack.

The table full of delicacies was overturned on the ground, the high-quality wine jug was broken, and the ground was scattered, and it was a mess.

The sound of gasping suddenly rose from the crowd, Xin Yue's body moved like a leopard, and he jumped up violently, knocking down the attacker to the ground with a single pounce, spreading his slender legs, and straddling the man, while with this At the same time, the five fingers of Su Bai's hand turned into claws, attacking the aorta of the man's neck.

But at this moment, a lot of white light suddenly struck behind her, and Xin Yue just wanted to get up to avoid it, but unexpectedly, there was a terrible dizziness in her head, she lost all strength, and the people under her took the opportunity to overthrow her and stood up, with a bang Her body rolled to the ground.

"Take her down."

A majestic and indifferent voice came from a distance, and Zhu Yan walked slowly in his yellow robe.

"emperor."

Yan Zhan on the side was about to attack, but he saw clearly that it was not someone else who attacked Xin Yue, but the emperor's bodyguards. His mind went blank for a moment, and when he realized it, Xin Yue had already been captured by the guards.

He left his seat, lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, looking up at the young emperor.

Zhu Yan's boots rustled on the scarlet carpet and thought to himself, his face was expressionless, and a coldness flashed in his eyes:

"Do you really think that I don't know who you are? On the deserted island, how did you and Chu Zhiling deal with me?"

Damn it!Xin Yue frowned, she knew where the problem was.

Zhu Yan had already recognized her when they met on the deserted island.He wanted to touch her, that's why when she held her hand like a favor, in fact, he wiped something on her hand, and then added ingredients to the wine that reacted with the thing on his hand , in fact, neither of them has toxins, but when they are mixed together, they will produce a drug that can cause dizziness and physical paralysis.

Xin Yue drank the wine after repeatedly confirming that there was no poison in it, but it was obviously impossible to guard against.

So, what is he thinking now, kill her, and take revenge for the bullying and humiliation that Chu Zhiling gave him that day?

Xin Yue raised his eyes, his pale face was very calm: "Your Majesty, you still remember that on the isolated island, the Emperor said that as long as I keep a secret and don't tell Chu Zhiling about your identity, I will be spared. "

"Save your life?" A sneer flashed across Zhu Yan's face, "What I said at the time was that I will not kill you on the desert island."

Xin Yue still wanted to speak, Zhu Yan waved his sleeves and said coldly:

"This woman has a close relationship with the Chu thieves. She was imprisoned in the sky and beheaded at a certain date. But Nian Zeng rescued her from me and left her whole body for burial."

Xin Yue's face turned pale, and the guards put knives on her neck, and even a little struggle couldn't help.

"Your Majesty!" Xin Yue was lifted from the ground, and Yan Zhan shouted, "Xin Yue has nothing to do with Chu Zhiling now, I beg the Emperor to spare her life."

"What are you doing in a daze? Drag it on."

The coldness on Zhu Yan's face did not decrease by half, his eyes swept over Yan Zhan and Xin Yue, and he said in a low voice with his hands behind his back.

Yan Zhan clenched his fists, and could only watch helplessly as Xin Yue was held up by the guards, and his slender figure was taken away from the banquet scene, heading towards the prison.

"Get up." Zhu Yan glanced at Yan Zhan lightly.

Yan Zhan lowered his head, stood up, and sat back in his original position.

"Everyone, continue to eat and drink, don't be distracted by such trivial things." Zhu Yan changed his previous cold attitude, and greeted everyone with a smile, as if nothing happened just now.

There is another lively scene of singing and dancing.Veterans in the officialdom have long been accustomed to seeing all kinds of changes, drinking and chatting casually, but it is obvious that each of them hides a cautiousness under their hypocritical smiles. Also, in royal banquets, few people can really laugh. happy.

The banquet soon came to an end, and the emperor Zhu Yan lost interest, he waved his hand: "I'm tired, go back and rest first, you have fun."

Just as Zhu Yan left, Yan Zhan followed.

"stop."

The imperial chariot carried Zhu Yan through the palaces and palaces. When he was in the imperial study, Zhu Yan ordered in a calm voice, without the slightest sign of sleepiness.

The imperial chariot was put down, and Zhu Yan walked out from inside, waving his hands, the imperial chariot was carried away by several eunuchs, leaving only two guards in black by Zhu Yan's side.

The young emperor put his hands behind his back and said in a cold voice, "Go in and talk."

Yan Zhan, who was following behind, nodded and followed Zhu Yan's footsteps into the imperial study room without saying anything.

Zhu Yan sat on the dragon chair, and the guards took the door to guard the door, and there were only Zhu Yan and Yan Zhan inside the door.

"Follow me all the way, what do you want to say?"

Zhu Yan rubbed his temples, and his eyes fell on Yan Zhan who was standing in front of him.

The young minister respectfully knelt on the ground and said in a deep voice, "I beg the emperor to spare Xinyue's life."

Zhu Yan waved his hand, looking very sleepy again, and ordered coldly:

"go out."

"Can your majesty tell me the reason why you have to kill Xin Yue?" Yan Zhan clenched his fists, still knelt on the ground, and asked in a deep voice, "The majesty should know that if it wasn't for Xin Yue, the majesty might..."
