The next day, Anyuan Palace
"Damn Wang Jingyun! He actually has the nerve to come here!
"Where is Miss Zixuan? Has she left the palace?"
Early in the morning, when Zhu Yajie heard that Wang Jingyun came to visit him in person, he was so angry that he slammed the table and stood up.
He Kun had already expected Zhu Yajie to be furious, and at this moment he was trembling with fear, not daring to look up at him.
"Master, do you want me to just kill him?"
He Kun suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with cold light, extremely cold and murderous intent growing stronger.
Zhu Yajie gave him a fierce look and beckoned him to come closer:
"Are you a pig-brained person? Wang Jingyun dared to come to his house in person. Was he completely defenseless?"
"Then what should we do now? Miss Zixuan is still being held captive by him in his mansion. Why don't we just fight back with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth!"
Thinking of Wang Jingyun detaining Zixuan, He Kun was so angry that he wanted to tear him apart immediately.
These words reminded Zhu Yajie, and he instantly became much more sober.
"Has that bastard Wang Cangyun been found? Have you found out who took him away?"
Zhu Yajie certainly understood that Wang Jingyun came here to take his son Wang Cangyun away.
But what worries him most right now is that Wang Cangyuen had been kidnapped a long time ago and his whereabouts are still unknown, and his life or death is uncertain.
Today is the day when he sets out for the northern country. Wang Jingyun comes to him at this critical juncture, and he certainly doesn't want to return in vain.
"Master, not yet. The other party is too secretive, and our people haven't found them yet.
I heard that the palace is also looking for someone, but like us, there has been no results so far."
He Kun did not dare to hide it. He reported it tremblingly and subconsciously took a step back.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yajie was completely speechless and furious.
"What should we do now? Wang Jingyun has come to our house to question us. I can't tell him that his stupid son is not in our hands, right?"
Zhu Yajie began to become a little anxious, and a trace of panic quickly flashed in his bottomless eyes.
The expedition was about to begin, and he didn't want anything to go wrong.
But Wang Jingyun didn't know what was good for him and deliberately made trouble.
"Why don't we tie him up now, or get rid of him completely, and then rush into the palace to rescue Miss Zixuan and take her to the North together, so as to avoid any more trouble."
He Kun still thought it would be easier to get rid of Wang Jingyun, and his eyes were particularly determined.
But he was still thinking too simply.
Zhu Yajie didn't agree with his idea at all and kept calling him an idiot.
"Did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? I am going to go to war today. If you kill Wang Jingyun now, won't the emperor track you down?"
“Although I am the regent, the position is in name only and I have no real power at all.
Since ancient times, have you ever seen a regent as cowardly as me?"
It can be seen that Zhu Yajie was indeed very angry. Not only were his veins bulging, but even his face turned green.
"What's the big deal? I'll deal with him. What does it have to do with the Regent?
At worst, if the emperor investigates, I will firmly declare that it was me who did it, and will never implicate you, Your Highness."
He Kun was very loyal and always followed the lead of Prince Anyuan.
At the moment, he couldn't think of any useful solution, so he could only choose one person to take the blame, and he did it without any hesitation.
King Anyuan said nothing more and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he suddenly looked up and beckoned He Kun to come forward:
"You are like this..."
The two of them exchanged a few minutes of brief conversation, and then He Kun took the order and left quickly.

"Haha! Minister Wang, it's not even time to call up the troops yet, and you're already rushing to give me a farewell party? It's really rare!"
Wang Jingyun has been sitting in the front hall waiting since he stepped into the Anyuan Palace. When he saw that Zhu Yajie had not shown up, he became extremely anxious.
Just as he was about to get up and make some noise, Zhu Yajie suddenly appeared, looking very happy, which really shocked Wang Jingyun.
"Is the Regent preparing to go to the training ground? Going out to the battlefield today may not be a good thing, right?"
Wang Jingyun quickly put down the teacup and said with a gloomy face.
He cursed in his heart: "I want to see you die miserably on the road!"
"Minister Wang, you are joking! Going to war is of course a good thing. Although I am the commander-in-chief, I only need to stay in the camp. Let the vanguards do the work of shedding blood. What's wrong with that?
By that time, when the Northern Kingdom is annihilated by my Daye warriors and I return triumphantly, it will be a completely different scene! Haha..."
When Zhu Yajie said this, he actually felt very uncomfortable, and it was obvious that he was saying it against his will.
Anyone with a bit of common sense would understand that being the regent at this time would mean going to the North to fight and die.
None of the princes were willing to serve as regent at this time, but due to the situation, they had to scramble for the position of regent.
Even the usually unknown Prince Changning Zhu Zhengxun was like this.
"Your Highness, that's easy to say! To make a long story short, I won't disturb you from going to war.
To be honest, I came here today because I have an important matter and would like to ask Your Majesty for help. I hope Your Majesty will not refuse. "
Wang Jingyun didn't want to continue wasting time with Zhu Yajie, so he got straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yajie looked calm and composed, as if he was not nervous at all. He fiddled with the teacup in his hand and said coldly:
"Oh, what did Minister Wang do? Why don't you tell me about it?"
After he finished speaking, Zhu Yajie picked up the tea and took a sip, his lips curled up subconsciously, his brows full of teasing.
Wang Jingyun was immediately furious when he saw this---
He was anxious to find his son, but King Anyuan was treating him as if he was playing.
[It seems that King Anyuan came prepared. Doesn't he want to save Miss Zixuan?]
[Butler Wang has inquired about this. Prince Anyuan and Miss Zixuan are in love with each other. He even redeemed her and wanted to take her as his concubine.]
[Could it be that our information is wrong? Prince Anyuan and Miss Zixuan are just...playing around?]
"My Lord, you have kidnapped my son for many days, isn't it time to return him?
I didn't want to visit you in person about this matter.
But seeing that the prince is about to go to war, I don’t want to disturb the emperor now, so…”
Wang Jingyun glanced at Zhu Yajie unhappily, and suddenly straightened his back.
His meaning is obvious---
If Zhu Yajie doesn't hand over his son Wang Cangyun, he will go to the emperor and report the truth.
In that case, not only would Zhu Yajie be able to go on the expedition smoothly, he would also have no time to dream of becoming the regent.
Who would have thought that before Wang Jingyun finished speaking, Zhu Yajie quickly interrupted him with a fearless look.
"So you kidnapped Miss Zixuan and wanted to negotiate terms with me, and use this to threaten me?"
The moment Zhu Yajie spoke, the corners of his lips involuntarily curled up slightly, revealing a smile with an ambiguous meaning.
Suddenly I had a chilling feeling.
Wang Jingyun was stunned for a moment and felt extremely passive.
"Your Majesty, now that we have made it clear, I just want to ask you one question: when can my son return home?"
Wang Jingyun was so eager to see his son that he couldn't wait.
But Zhu Yajie was not in a hurry at all. He sneered, raised his eyes and said slowly:
"When Miss Zixuan is sent to my palace, you, my dear young master, will be safely sent home.
How about it, Minister Wang, am I not a righteous man?"
When Wang Jingyun heard that Zhu Yajie agreed to exchange Zixuan for his son, he was immediately delighted, knowing that it was exactly what he wanted.
He quickly confirmed again: "Are you serious?"
"Of course. I'm in a hurry to the parade ground to inspect the troops. If you still can't see Miss Zixuan before I go to the battle, then Minister Wang will prepare a coffin for you! Haha..."
Zhu Yajie ignored Wang Jingyun, said a few harsh words, then stood up and left without even looking back.
Wang Jingyun did not dare to hesitate. Without thinking, he fled from the Anyuan Palace in disgrace and went straight home.
