General Helian had suffered a disaster. As his deputy general, he would most likely die to atone for his cris when he returned to Nanzhao. He only hoped that by doing the State Preceptor a favor, he could protect his family from the Emperor’s anger when he returned to Nanzhao.
Deputy General Hu told him everything about Helian Qi visiting the brothel and the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. Although he was not the coachman of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion that day, Helian Qi did not hide it from him after that.
After hearing Deputy General Hu’s words, Lord Du was so shocked that his mouth could not close. “He… he… he really said such disgraceful words to Young Master Yan?”
What did he an by “I heard that Mrs. Xiao is the number one beauty of the Great Zhou? Why don’t you let her accompany for a night and I’ll give you the armor”? He had actually humiliated his biological mother in front of the Young Master of Yan City?!
“I’ll tell you sothing else.” The State Preceptor seed to be talking to Deputy General Hu, but in fact, he was talking to Lord Du. “I’ve already found out that the maidservant from the Drunken Immortal Pavilion is not a servant of the Young Master Manor, but Young Madam Yan’s friend. She’s not Yan Jiuchao’s trap for General Helian. General Helian and her just happened to et.”
Deputy General Hu was stunned.
Lord Du widened his eyes and said, “In that case, General Helian insulted Young Master Yan’s mother first and tried to bully Young Madam Yan’s friend…” He still had the cheek to seek revenge on Yan Jiuchao?!
Helian Qi had brought this entire matter upon himself. To put it bluntly, he deserved to die. As envoys of Nanzhao, they could go and cause trouble with the Emperor of the Great Zhou, but the one who would be shad would ultimately be Nanzhao. The hatred of humiliating his mother was irreconcilable. Yan Jiuchao had been a little heavy-handed, but no one would reprimand him.
Helian Qi’s life was already hopeless. They had to maintain their dignity.
Lord Du shut up.
The State Preceptor glanced at Deputy General Hu and looked at the endless night. “No wonder they kept you alive. So they wanted to use you to tell us that the culprit was him, but we couldn’t do anything about him!”
If Deputy General Hu was also dead and they did not know the truth, they would definitely seek an explanation from the Great Zhou Emperor. After the truth was found, although General Helian was shad, Yan Jiuchao had also violated the Great Zhou law by killing people. No matter how much the commoners sympathized with him, the law would not forgive him.
This was the result that no one could benefit from.
But it was different now. As long as they chose to settle the matter peacefully, not only would General Helian’s reputation be saved, but Yan Jiuchao would also not have to accept any punishnt. Although he was unwilling, he had to admit that this was a win-win situation.
This ti, Lord Du understood without the State Preceptor’s reminder. He sighed and said, “This kind of behavior of tricking you yet wanting you to thank him… It reminds of soone.”
The State Preceptor looked at him.
Lord Du gave him a look that he could not have guessed.
The State Preceptor said, “Prince Consort.”
There were a total of two Princesses in Nanzhao Nation. The Eldest Princess had long severed ties with Nanzhao. The Prince Consort that Lord Du was referring to was the little Princess’s husband. He was not from Nanzhao. At first, the Emperor did not agree to his marriage with the little Princess, but the little Princess was willing to give up the throne to want him. The Emperor was furious because of this and did not ntion the appointnt of the Queen for more than ten years. It was not until the little Princess obtained the holy artifact and proved that she was the destined person that the Emperor finally conferred the title of the Queen.
The Prince Consort was both the husband of the Little Princess and his advisor. Today, Yan Jiuchao played a trick on them. For so reason, he had the sa thods as the Prince Consort back then.
Lord Du had been subdued by the Prince Consort, but in the end, he had beco the Little Princess’s trusted aide. He did not know if the State Preceptor was the sa as him, but he did not know and did not dare to ask.
… .
Helian Qi was ambushed by ferocious beasts in the hunting ground. Although the envoys from Nanzhao did not hold the Great Zhou Dynasty accountable, the Emperor felt a little apologetic. He personally went to the palace to visit the miserable Helian Qi and left behind a few imperial physicians with superb dical skills. He also promised the envoys from Nanzhao that no matter how many herbs were needed, he would try his best to find them for Helian Qi.
It was not that the Emperor had never suspected that there was sothing else going on, but the imperial guards did not find any clues in the forest.
It was said that Helian Qi had once caused trouble in the Drunken Immortal Pavilion. In the end, soone beat him up. He guessed that it was Yan Jiuchao. He also heard that Yan Jiuchao had once gone to a brothel to look for Helian Qi. Why was he looking for him? Naturally, it was for Xiao Zhenting’s armor. The Emperor had always thought that Yan Jiuchao only had hatred for Xiao Zhenting, but now, he actually fought with the envoy for Xiao Zhenting’s armor. The Emperor was a little jealous.
Of course, this did not an that Helian Qi’s injuries were caused by Xiao Zhenting and Yan Jiuchao. Not to ntion that Xiao Zhenting did not go to the hunting ground today, even if he did, he would not do such a thing. It was possible for that brat, but look at the thin horse he chose. Who could he catch up to? And the two secret guards beside him. It was said that they were sacrificial soldiers who gave up halfway. How could such a dilettante defeat a Nanzhao General?
