Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role

Li Changhuan frowned, his expression somewhat impatient: "Who is your young master?"

"The Prime Minister's eldest son, Young Master Xiao."

Some scenes from the dream immediately emerged in Li Changhuan's mind.

It was this Master Xiao who, after becoming her legitimate ruler, colluded with her third sister Li Changle, poisoned her, stole her military token, and let the rebels into the city.

Although she knew that dreams were all fake, she was immune to all poisons and no poison in the world could kill her. The army that had finally helped her third sister in the dream was now in her hands. So she didn't dare to say that all those people were loyal to her, but they would never dare to rebel against her.

"No time."

After she said that, she turned and left.

"Your Highness!"

Xiao Yanzhi finally couldn't bear it anymore, got off the carriage and called her twice.

"Your Highness, please stay!"

Li Changhuan finally stopped, and Xiao Yanzhi quickly caught up and knelt down to pay his respects: "Greetings, Your Highness."

"Go ahead."

She didn't let him get up, so Xiao Yanzhi knelt down with his brows lowered and his head bowed slightly. He said, "The young man in Your Highness's mansion is not of a decent status, right? I want to make a deal with Your Highness."

When Li Changhuan heard the words "not presentable", his expression had become extremely ugly. Xiao Yanzhi was kneeling on the ground and could not see, but she seemed to have a hint of laughter in her tone: "Oh, what deal?"

"Your Highness, please allow me to be your legitimate ruler and give me a daughter. I will protect the young man dear to your heart in the Eastern Palace. No matter how many people enter the Eastern Palace, I will stand in front of that young man and prevent him from being harmed."

"Heh." Li Changhuan suddenly felt as if he had heard some shocking joke: "Does my lonely person need your protection?"

"I know Your Highness is capable, but you are a man of great ambition and will not stay in Yanjing forever. If the Queen becomes dissatisfied with that young man and cannot tolerate him, or if someone you have offended wants his life, the road ahead is long and arduous. Are you so confident that you can always protect him? I can do it for you."

Just as he finished speaking, a long sword silently crossed his neck, and Li Changhuan's extremely cold voice came from above: "Are you threatening me?"

Xiao Yanzhi immediately sensed her murderous intent, his heart nearly jumping out of his throat. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "I dare not!"

"The Prime Minister's Mansion is quite courageous." Li Changhuan used a little strength on his wrist, and a shallow cut was instantly made from Xiao Yanzhi's neck to his jaw. The pain was not severe, but Xiao Yanzhi felt the blood flowing out.

He suddenly became flustered.

He cannot have his appearance damaged.

"Your Highness!"

With a clang, the long sword was sheathed. Li Changhuan snorted coldly, "Now that you've spoken up today, if anything happens to him in the future, I will blame you, the Prime Minister's Mansion. Even if the Empress doesn't allow it, I will kill you all one by one!"

Xiao Yanzhi kowtowed several times, his face turned pale with fear and he was sweating all over.

He had only heard about the princess from folk rumors and from the Third Prince's mouth, and he only believed three-quarters of the rumors about his cruelty and brutality.

Now it seems that at least 70% to 80% of it is credible.

Just now, His Highness really wanted to kill him.

Xiao Yanzhi didn't know how long he had been kneeling on the ground. His body was soaked with cold sweat, and his head felt dizzy. He was almost about to fall to the ground.

Finally, a slightly older female voice came: "Mr. Xiao, His Majesty has graciously allowed you to return."

Xiao Yanzhi was shocked again.

Not Your Highness, but Your Majesty.

The princess actually told the empress about this matter.

She was not afraid at all that the Queen would know that she had kept a man who was not presentable in the East Palace. As it turned out, the Queen really didn't care. Instead, she cared more about his behavior today.

Otherwise, someone would have told him to get up long ago.

It seems that the words of the Third Princess are not credible at all. Not only is the Queen completely unguarded and dissatisfied with the Princess, but she also considers her in every way.

The Third Princess overestimated her status.

Or maybe she was lying to him, wanting him to be one of her pawns to defeat the princess and become the crown prince.

When Xiao Yanzhi thought of this, he immediately changed his mind.

The Third Princess cannot compare to the Imperial Concubine in terms of appearance and talent, and is even more infatuated and devoted than her. So why should he listen to the Third Princess?

With the time and energy to plan for her, he could just find a way to win the heart of the princess. As for that unpresentable thing in the East Palace, he could just find a way to get rid of it.

Having made up his mind, Xiao Yanzhi turned around and looked in the direction of the East Palace.

He could not see anything because of the numerous palaces, but he knew that the future king of Northern Yan lived there, and possibly even the king of the world.

How could he not fight for a woman like that?

He was born to be a king!

-

On the way back to the East Palace, Li Changhuan didn't say a word, which scared Shangguan Hui a lot.

She felt that the princess must be angry. The princess fell in love with Mr. Yan at first sight and was still in high spirits. Someone came to her and said such spoiling words. Shangguan Hui was really surprised that the princess did not chop off his head with a sword.

After all, according to her previous temper, if she heard such offensive words, not only would she not wait for him to finish speaking, but the princess would chop him in half with a sword as soon as he opened his mouth.

He was so restrained today, I wonder if it was because that man was Prime Minister Xiao's son or for some other reason?

After returning to the East Palace, Li Changhuan did not go to find Wuyou first, but went to the study.

Shangguan Hui followed all the way to the study. Li Changhuan was sitting at the desk, his mind distracted, as if he was thinking about something.

She usually has no expression when she is thinking, or rather, she has no expression most of the time. Her natural aura of a superior, coupled with her eyes that seem to be filled with cold springs, makes people surrender involuntarily in front of her.

"Your Highness?" Her voice trembled slightly, as she was worried that Li Changhuan's next words would be to kill Prime Minister Xiao's entire family.

"Ok?"

Shangguan Hui could not hear any joy in the word.

Shangguan Hui carefully considered the words: "...Young Master Xiao is well-known for his talent in Yanjing. He is arrogant because of his talent, which is why he said such disrespectful words. Your Highness, please do not take his words to heart. Young Master Yan will be fine."

She thought she was angry, but Li Changhuan said, "Just a clown. I just discovered something else and want you to check it out."

"Your Highness, please speak."

Li Changhuan thought of the face she saw. Before, there was only a shadow in her dream. She didn't see Xiao Yanzhi's face clearly. When she saw him today, he seemed familiar.

"That Xiao Yanzhi looks about four or five percent like Yan'er. Go check if Yan'er is related to the Xiao family."

Shangguan Hui was stunned: "Are you sure about this, Your Highness?"

"My eyes are still working well, they're not blind."

Shangguan Hui raised her hand and slapped her mouth: "I made a mistake. I will check it out right away."

"Go, and don't let anyone know about this except yourself."

Shangguan Hui bowed her head: "Yes!"
