The emperor's favorite useless concubine

Chapter 53
The accident happened in an instant that no one expected.

Just when Yan Han ordered someone to break in, Yi Ren felt her eyes blur. She looked back in surprise, and then found that the surroundings had become dense with swords and halberds. The sun was shining, reflecting the glaring white light, which hurt Yi Ren's eyes.

Yan Han also discovered the situation at the same time. After being shocked for a moment, he quickly recovered, leaned over and said in a low voice: "I didn't expect that there is such an army in the Celestial Dynasty."

To be precise, it is not an army, but a group of dead soldiers sneaking around. Everyone can control their breathing and footsteps very well, and their internal strength is unimaginably high.

This group of teams was exactly the one that allowed He Lanxue to break into the formation last time when they besieged Rong Xiu.

But with their current strength, it was a fluke that He Lanxue was able to break through them alone last time.

Yan Han is not an emperor who lives in a deep palace. He has been in the army for several years, conquering all directions, and with just one glance, he can see their strength from their organization, their internal energy, and their formation.

However, it seemed too late to recall his own people.

The door was broken into.

The people in the room turned around at the same time, facing the uninvited guests who stepped through the door.

Not many people came with Yanhan this time, and the old man was still in the inn—he didn't agree with this action, so naturally he didn't want to intervene.There was a bodyguard beside Yan Han, the other four guarded here last night, at this moment, they were ordered to rush into the house and stand in front of Rong Xiu and He Lanxue.

"Who are you?" He Lanxue was almost furious, his whole body weight fell on his hands propped on the edge of the table.

His face was pale, and his lips were almost colorless.

He originally thought that these four people came to help Rong Xiu, but Rong Xiu also asked the same sentence at the same time, "Who are you?"

When Rong Xiu said this, she subconsciously took a step back in He Lanxue's direction.

Her beautiful appearance was paled by panic and astonishment.

In sudden situations, she would still lean towards He Lanxue——He Lanxue had protected her too many times, and she was used to it.

He Lanxue immediately realized that the four in front of her were mysterious figures who did not belong to any side, almost without thinking, she reached out to protect Rong Xiu behind her, but just as her right hand moved up, she fell forward due to lack of strength.

He put his hands on the table again, half-lying, his eyes mocking himself again.

Why does she need his protection?

He can't protect himself, who else can he protect?

Probably because of the violent action just now, the effect of the Wangyou herb that He Lanxue had suppressed for a long time suddenly hit the sky and overwhelmed her.

He was dizzy.

The arm that was struggling to support it trembled involuntarily.

Will it all be forgotten?

He Lanxue was no longer able to trace the origins of the four people in front of him, but at the last moment of losing consciousness, he thought of a question that made him extremely frustrated and confused.

Has he ever known Rong Xiu, elder brother, second elder brother, Pei Ruochen, Yi Jian, anyone around him?
He had thought he knew what they wanted, that he would not disappoint anyone.

It turned out not to be.

He Lanxue's incomparable self-confidence finally collapsed amidst all kinds of uncertainties and doubts.

He clenched the hand of memory, but found that there was no one in it, they were all such complicated and unpredictable existences.

Except Yiren...

Except Yiren!

Yi Ren's heartless smile unexpectedly became the last image in his mind for no reason, and then he fell into the eternal night completely.

"It's too late, we must hold Rong Xiu hostage immediately." Seeing He Lanxue fell down, Yan Han made a decisive decision, whispered to Yi Ren 'stay here', and jumped down.

Yan Han's prestige lies in that he never abandons his subordinates, even if they are just the four most common guards in Yan Palace, he must personally take them back.

And his personal bodyguards continued to stay on the roof according to his instructions to protect Yiren.

Yi Ren wanted to jump down with him, but was pinned down by the guard, unable to move.

She could only watch helplessly as the swords around her surged with Yanhan's appearance, and the encirclement began to shrink rapidly. When Yanhan stepped into the house, the outside had already turned into an iron bucket.

The direction of the tip of the knife is all one point.

"Leave He Lanxue alone, control Rong later." Yan Han succinctly instructed the four subordinates, then opened the window, calmly looked at the approaching figure outside, and asked loudly: "I don't know who is coming?"

Before Rong Xiu had time to say anything, the guards who had already heard the sound grabbed both arms, and the Ya acupoint was tapped at the same time.

Outside the door, a man in Chinese clothes stood out in front of the crowd, with his hands behind his back, his posture was straight, he stood in a stable manner, with a stable and reliable appearance.

Yan Han looked closely: the man looked about forty years old, with a calm and wise expression, the calmness of a person who has experienced many storms and has a clear mind.And it is well maintained, with clear eyebrows and eyes, and you can vaguely see the handsomeness when you were young.

With a thought in his mind, he called out in an unquestionable tone: "Pei Linpu, Prime Minister Pei?"

Sure enough, the other party acquiesced, and he didn't look surprised, but just looked at him lightly.

In Pei Linpu's eyes, the Yan Han in front of him is obviously unfamiliar. Although Yan Guo has been very restless recently, the two countries have not communicated with each other for 20 years. Therefore, although one of them is the emperor and the other is the prime minister, Actually, he didn't know each other.

However, they had already heard too many rumors about the other party from the spies, and almost everyone had a simulated portrait of the other party in their hands.

However, once the situation meets, it will be another look.

Yanhan's appearance deeply touched Pei Linpu - not only because of the handsomeness and arrogance that belonged to the desert, but also because of Yanhan's demeanor that he could still talk and laugh freely in a difficult situation.

"You look very similar to someone." Pei Linpu finally said slowly, "If you guessed right, you should be Yan Zihao's son, right?"

"Have you met my royal father?" Yan Han was slightly taken aback, but then his expression became clear again.

Pei Linpu used to be Mrs. Xi's follower, and Mrs. Xi had a relationship with Yanhan's father, Yan Zihao.

It's not unusual for him to know Yan Zihao.

"After Emperor Hao passed away the year before last, I wanted to pay homage to him, but because of the many court affairs, I couldn't do it all the time. I must say it's a pity." Pei Linpu shook his head lightly, sighing to himself.

"That's not easy." Yan Han smiled easily, and said in a gentle voice: "I will arrest you and return to Yan Kingdom, when that time comes, Master Pei can worship the late emperor."

"It is absolutely impossible for you to break out of the siege here, because this formation is the formation passed down by Mrs. Xi. At that time, Mrs. Xi relied on it to keep your father behind. Since then, she has not set foot in the Celestial Dynasty for 20 years. Now , it will keep you in the same way, if the Celestial Dynasty captures you, I also hope that we can continue the promise of the previous generation: Your Majesty will not set foot in the Celestial Dynasty again during your lifetime." Pei Linpu was not annoyed, but looked at Yanhan, smiled gently and slowly. Slow down.

"You are wrong. Last time my father was trapped by the formation, he returned to China to study it with great concentration. Many years ago, my father had already cracked this formation and wanted to use it to trap me. There are 81 changes." Yan Han smiled slightly, and then turned his body to the side: just in time for Pei Linpu to see Rongxiu in the room.

Rong Xiu couldn't speak, and could only look at Pei Linpu for help.

Pei Linpu was not surprised, he already knew that Rongxiu was in the room, but he couldn't confirm He Lanxue's situation at the moment, so he was always afraid.

"If you don't mind, how about letting the queen of your country pay homage to the ancestor?" Yan Han blocked Rongxiu again, facing Pei Linpu, and asked calmly.

This sentence is a very straightforward threat.

If they take into account the safety of the future, they will naturally let them go.

Of course, if they didn't care about Rong Xiu's safety, a bloody battle would be inevitable.

Pei Linpu didn't answer right away, but frowned and pondered, as if he was weighing.

If it was someone else, he might decide to let them go, but Yan Han is not someone else, but the number one enemy of today's dynasty.

The Celestial Dynasty has suffered successive disasters this year, and its national strength is weak. If the Yan Kingdom takes advantage of the vacancy again, it will be extremely difficult.

But now, he has a chance to catch Yan Han and resolve this catastrophe—is it really worth giving up such an excellent opportunity for a mere queen?
When Pei Linpu was silent, although Yanhan still had a calm look, he was already screaming in his heart.

It seems that He Lanchun didn't ask Pei Linpu to issue any military order, maybe He Lanchun's original words were just: play by ear.

He never emphasized the safety of his queen, so Pei Linpu dared to hesitate so boldly, hesitating about the life and death of the dignified mother.

Thinking of this, Yan Han felt a little sympathetic to Rong Xiu, and couldn't help but look back at her.

Rong Xiu's face was pale, much paler than when he faced He Lanxue just now, like a ghost.

He secretly sighed: She is also a smart woman.

Pei Linpu's hesitation already reflected He Lanchun's indifference and He Lanchun's choice.

Yanhan can understand, doesn't Rongxiu understand?

Sure enough, after a brief silence, Pei Linpu said slowly, "If Your Majesty insists on inviting our empress back home, the state of etiquette in the Celestial Dynasty will also invite His Majesty to stay in the Celestial Dynasty for a longer period of time."

He has chosen to sacrifice.

Abandoned Rongxiu.

Although Yan Han had already guessed the ending, he was still a little surprised when he heard the words, and asked: "For such a big matter, doesn't the prime minister need to ask the emperor of the Celestial Dynasty?"

Pei Linpu smiled slightly, and replied calmly: "The general will not be accepted by the emperor's life, not to mention, it is an honor for the Celestial Dynasty to invite His Majesty back. I believe the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty will also welcome Your Excellency."

Yanhan smiled wryly, and then he shot like lightning. The people outside thought that he was going to make a surprise attack, but before he had time to react, his hand had already been put down.

Rongxiu's acupoints were unlocked.

"Forget it, you are of no value. I have hated bullying weak women all my life—of course, the woman who can bring down Xiaoyao Wang is not a weak woman." Yan Han ignored Rong Xiu's surprise and embarrassment, and said to himself To: "You go there, after returning to the palace, help me take He Lanchun well, and say that I would like to have a meeting with him as soon as possible."
