The best ring

Jin Zheyun was a little embarrassed at the moment. He found that he had thought things too simply before. Of course, this could not be blamed on him. He had not expected that the old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom would suddenly die. This news caught him off guard and disrupted his previous plan.

Now thinking about it, he did nothing wrong in letting Zhao Qi go back. The mistake was that he did not consider it thoroughly enough.

In his heart, Jin Zheyun did not want to cancel this marriage. With this marriage, he could plan many things, especially annexing Yanfeng Kingdom. If he gave up this marriage, he would have no suitable excuse.

But if he did not give up this marriage, Zhao Qi would resist this matter again. He might not cooperate with Yanfeng Kingdom in the future. He might even contact Shuiyue Kingdom secretly to get rid of this marriage. Besides, after Zhao Qi went back, even if she had the title of concubine of King Xi of Tianji Kingdom, she might not obey his orders.

On the contrary, it might be better to give up this marriage.

Jin Zheyun looked at Wu Fan and said, "If I give up this marriage, how can I believe that your Yanfeng Kingdom will stand on the side of our Tianji Kingdom?"

Hearing Jin Zheyun's words, Wu Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Jin Zheyun's words have already shown that his attitude on the matter of marriage has been loosened. What he needs to do now is to make him make up his mind completely.

Thinking of this, Wu Fan said to Jin Zheyun: "Our princess can sign a covenant with you."

However, Jin Zheyun shook his head and said: "This method will not work. Both parties must abide by the covenant. If one party does not abide by it, it is a piece of waste paper, even worse than waste paper."

Jin Zheyun knew very well how binding the covenant was. Not long ago, their Tianji Kingdom signed a covenant with Shuiyue Kingdom, but in the end, they did not abide by it. Although Shuiyue Kingdom condemned them for this, so what? They will not lose a hair.

So, signing a covenant will not make him feel at ease.

Wu Fan frowned slightly. If signing the covenant could not reassure Jin Zheyun, then verbal assurance would be even less likely to reassure him.

If Jin Zheyun could not be reassured, then Jin Zheyun would not let them go back.

Wu Fan tried hard to think of a solution. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said to Jin Zheyun: "Your Majesty, I have another solution."

"What?"

"Poison!"

"Poison?" Jin Zheyun was a little confused.

"Yes," Wu Fan nodded and said: "I believe there must be many doctors with superb medical skills in the palace of your Tianji country. It should not be difficult for these doctors to mix a poison. If your majesty is not sure about the promise of our princess, you can give our princess this poison. At that time, if our princess breaks her promise, your majesty will not give her the antidote. Of course, if our princess keeps her promise, I hope your majesty can give her the antidote."

Wu Fan's words made Jin Zheyun's eyes light up.

This is a good idea!

With the restriction of poison, he didn't believe Zhao Qi would dare to break his promise. More importantly, after Zhao Qi took the poison, her life would be under the control of their Tianji Kingdom. At that time, he could do whatever he wanted. Whatever he asked Zhao Qi to do, Zhao Qi would not dare to disobey! Even, it would be easier than he imagined for him to annex Yanfeng Kingdom at that time.

This method made Jin Zheyun quite excited. In his opinion, this method was even more effective than marriage.

If they married, Zhao Qi might stay in Yanfeng Kingdom and not come back, or even join forces with Shuiyue Kingdom.

But if she took the poison, Zhao Qi would not dare not come, let alone contact the people of Shuiyue Kingdom, unless she didn't want to live.

This was naturally impossible.

So, at this moment, Jin Zheyun had been persuaded by Wu Fan and was really moved.

However, Jin Zheyun said with some embarrassment on his face: "Is this method not good? Will your princess feel humiliated and will she not agree to take the medicine?"

Jin Zheyun's series of words made Wu Fan understand that he had persuaded him. Now Jin Zheyun just wanted to save face and let Zhao Qi take the poison willingly.

Thinking of this, Wu Fan said to Jin Zheyun: "Your Majesty, don't worry. I will persuade the princess. I believe she will agree. However, I hope that your majesty can give our princess the antidote in time."

"That's for sure," Jin Zheyun said seriously: "Our two countries are allies. How can I harm my allies? What's more, your seventh princess is so predestined with our Tianji country. I even regard her as my daughter-in-law. How can I harm her?"

"Your Majesty said so, I am relieved," Wu Fan said.

The two laughed with their own thoughts. Both sides got what they wanted, and everyone was happy. As for what happened next, they each had their own plans. It depends on who can laugh last.

After Wu Fan left, Jin Zheyun called the imperial physicians and asked them to take out a poison that only they could detoxify. Jin Zheyun wanted to control Zhao Qi through this poison, so it was naturally impossible for Zhao Qi to make the antidote herself.

This matter was not a difficult task for the imperial physicians. It didn't take long for such a poison to be taken out. After Jin Zheyun got the poison, he confirmed it again and again.

"Are you sure that only you can detoxify this poison?"

"Your Majesty, this poison was found by us in the classics. No one can make the antidote except us." The leading imperial physician said: "If you don't know the ratio of the poison, even a master-level pharmacist can't make an antidote."

Jin Zheyun listened, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "In this case, I will be relieved."

This matter is of great importance, Jin Zheyun cannot but pay attention to it, and the answers of the imperial doctors also made him very satisfied.

Afterwards, Jin Zheyun asked Wu Fan and Zhao Qi to come.

At this time, Wu Fan was in the mansion, preparing to talk to Zhao Qi about the old emperor, but he didn't know how to start for a while.

"Wu Fan, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel that you are a little strange after returning from the palace? Do you have anything to tell me?" Zhao Qi looked at Wu Fan and asked with some doubts.

Zhao Qi always felt that Wu Fan was a little strange after returning, especially the way he looked at her, which always made her feel bad.

"Is the marriage troublesome?" Zhao Qi asked.

Wu Fan shook his head and said: "No, there is no trouble with the marriage. On the contrary, the emperor of Yanfeng has agreed to announce the cancellation of the engagement."

"Really?" Zhao Qi asked with a face full of surprise.

"Yeah." Wu Fan nodded.

"Great!" Zhao Qi almost cheered out.
