Chapter 120
Prime Minister Pei Yuandao clearly saw the situation clearly, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, now is the critical time to negotiate a peace. Although Emperor Daqin is inclined to negotiate a peace, there is still Xiao Shangyan who can't bear it."

"It is said that Xiao Shangyan had a marriage contract with the third princess, and this time he insisted on asking for a letter from the third princess. If he learns of the death of the third princess, he will definitely oppose the peace negotiation. Xiao Shangyan now holds the military power of the Great Qin State. His influence cannot be ignored, it was this person's opinion that the Great Qin had a good relationship with Southern Chu and Western Shu."

"If Xiao Shangyan strongly opposes the peace negotiation, I am afraid that the Emperor of Qin will be persuaded by him, and our Ling Kingdom will fall into a passive position. I think it is better to conceal the death of the three princesses first, and then make arrangements after the two countries negotiate a peace agreement and form an alliance."

The young emperor finally lost his patience, "I have made up my mind, please don't say anything more."

After he finished speaking, he waved his hands as if exhausted, "Let's retreat."

Doctor Yu Shi jumped out grimly and fearlessly: "Your Majesty, the matter of peace negotiation involves the great interests of the two countries, and it is even more inadvisable to make the funeral a grand gift for the empress dowager, absolutely not!"

Lord Ling Xinghan had a handsome face: "What if I insist on doing this?"

"The minister has no choice but to remonstrate with death!" Yan Yan, the doctor of the imperial censor, once again shouted his bold words.

Ling Junxing stared at him coldly for a while, and said in an extremely cold voice, "In that case, then I will fulfill you today. Come here—to drag Yan Yan out of the gate of Chonghua, with a hundred sticks!"

Wei Wuji's heart skipped a beat.Yan Yan is a civil servant, with a staff of one hundred, he is afraid that he will surely die.

Although the emperor has a headache for this group of admonishers, he has always been hypocritical and obedient, and even avoided confrontation as much as possible. If it is serious today, it will be good or bad, not to mention what kind of trouble it will cause. Who will dare to say the truth in the future? talk?

He was about to intercede for Yan Yushi, but someone knelt down before him.

"Your Majesty, Yan Yushi has a fierce temperament, and he is also the official censor. Let alone what he says is right or wrong, it is his duty to speak up and advise."

It was Pei Song, Shaoqing of Dali Temple who spoke, his voice was calm and gentle, and the moment he spoke, it seemed to lighten the tense atmosphere in the hall, "I also ask the emperor to recite Yan Yushi's sincere heart, and spare his life. "

"Please spare Yan Yushi's life, Your Majesty."

Prime Minister Pei Yuandao and the officials also knelt down, and even Wei Wuji also knelt down.

Ling Junxing's gloomy eyes swept over everyone little by little, as if the hall was covered by heavy dark clouds, everyone felt breathless.

In the almost suffocating silence, the emperor finally said coldly: "Since all the officials intercede, they will be exempted from the harsh punishment of the court staff. If anyone dares to criticize the third princess's funeral, I will never forgive him lightly!! "

The emperor walked away with a cold face, leaving the sweaty ministers looking at each other with complicated emotions.

West Garden of King Zhao's Mansion.

Chanjuan blocked the visiting doctor Xue Yuheng at the door, and refused to let Xue Yuheng enter the house.

"My princess is gone, what else do you want to see? Even if you are a doctor, there is a difference between men and women, and you can't just let you see it after death!"

Xue Yuheng turned his head and glanced at Jueying, motioning for Jueying to pull Chanjuan away.

Chanjuan hastened to grab the door frame tightly, staring at Jueying as if facing a formidable enemy.Jueying moved slightly, raised and lowered her palms, and Chanjuan fainted.

Xue Yuheng was a little shocked: "I asked you to pull her away, but I didn't let you knock her out."

Jueying said expressionlessly: "Save the trouble."

Xue Yuheng glanced at Jueying in disbelief, shook his head and pushed the door open.
