Si Zhengxuan and Ling Yuefeng were stunned again, but no one thought that the girl's words were arrogant.

Si Zhengxuan will never forget his daughter's words that they should pull up this deep-rooted tree step by step and make them roll down from their high position.

Now, she has pulled up half of the tree, and the other half is left.

What happened in the palace had a huge impact on the Prime Minister's party and all the civil and military officials in Daxuan.

The emperor was not really a confused person. That night he summoned Si Qingshan and the three main generals of the Jingji camp and asked them to strengthen security around Shangjing City and be ready to enter Shangjing at any time to maintain order.

Si Yan really rested at home for a few days. It was not that she didn't want to talk to the prime minister and others, but she was worried that the series of events would make the emperor unable to bear it.

The emperor doted on Concubine Xin for more than twenty years, but Concubine Xin was proven to have poisoned the emperor. The blow the emperor suffered was no less severe than that suffered by the prime minister's party.

At this moment, if something happens to the emperor and the position of crown prince remains undecided, Daxuan will surely cause great panic and civil unrest.

Si Yan’s next plan was to remove Xin Rui from the position of prime minister and completely overthrow the support behind Prince Xin.

On the tenth day of the first lunar month, the court meeting was cancelled.

Hu Wen, the young eunuch beside Eunuch Gu, brought news to Si Yan, saying that His Majesty was seriously ill, but fortunately the genius doctor Yun Ya had taken care of His Majesty and he was fine now.

After Hu Wen conveyed Eunuch Gu's words, he also relayed the words of Divine Doctor Yunya: "Master Si Yan, Divine Doctor Yunya asked me to ask you if you have any ginseng left. He said that His Majesty needs it..."

"Yes, we just dug up a batch yesterday." Si Yan turned around and instructed Si Rong, "Pick out some of the best ginseng and take it back to the palace for Eunuch Hu Wen."

"Yes, sir." Si Rong hurried to get the ginseng, and Yun Li took the initiative to follow and help.

Si Rong refused, "I don't need Mr. Yunli's help."

This is Situ Mansion, and Si Rong doesn't want outsiders to interfere too much.

Yun Li raised his eyebrows. This Miss Si Rong seemed to have a lot of opinions about him...

Hu Wen took the ginseng, and Si Yan personally escorted him out. He kept saying, "Master Si Yan, please go back. Please go back."

"Father-in-law, walk slowly."

"Okay, okay, please go back, sir." Hu Wen said politely.

Si Yan knew that the emperor's body could not hold on for much longer.

After Hu Wen walked away, Si Yan waved his hand and asked someone to drive a carriage over.

Yun Li hurried over and said, "Old man, let me drive the car. You go back and rest..."

The coachman shook his beard and was about to say it was not necessary, but Yun Li forcibly pulled him down.

Yun Li gently snatched the whip from the coachman's hand, jumped onto the carriage, and said to Si Yan with a smile, "Sir, please get in the carriage."

The coachman was a smart man. Seeing that Si Yan didn't say anything, he went back quietly.

Si Yan turned around and said to Si Rong, "Go to the Zuowei Mansion and talk to Second Young Master Ling, and bring someone to the Special Envoy Inn."

"Yes, Miss." Si Rong responded respectfully and hurried to Zuowei Mansion.

Si Yan is a first-rank female official in front of the emperor. Although she holds a high position and rank, she has no one under her.

The five hundred soldiers that His Majesty asked her to train secretly have not yet been trained.

However, Ling Mohan has regular soldiers under his command, and if they work together, they can still accomplish a lot.

The carriage of Situ Mansion drove towards the envoy's inn. When the soldiers of Beimang Kingdom who were watching at the door saw Si Yan, they immediately ran in to report.

Si Yan killed their warrior Chi Lei and also killed a tiger they brought from Beimang Country, making everyone hate him to the core.

King Hao of Beimang Kingdom was in a rage. When he learned that Wu Wan'er had actually come forward in the palace to testify against the Imperial Concubine's side, he couldn't help but become furious.

He asked someone to go to the palace to see Wu Wan'er, but Wu Wan'er simply refused to see him.

Their people warned Wu Wan'er: "Young lady, don't you worry about your father's life?"

Wu Wan'er replied directly: "Everyone has their own destiny. I am like a clay Buddha crossing a river, I can barely save myself, so I can't care about so many things."

Di Hao was so angry that he clenched his fists and threw things around the room.

Hearing Si Yan coming, Di Hao couldn't help but get even angrier.

He came out of the room at the inn and looked at Si Yan who walked into the inn step by step. He gritted his teeth and said, "Si Yan, are you imprisoning me to start a war between the two countries?"

Si Yan glanced over and said, "I think King Hao wants the Beimang army to be destroyed by another 200,000 soldiers."

Di Hao was annoyed. "What do you want in exchange for letting me return to my country?"

"We've made it very clear. Once Beimang Kingdom has handed over all five cities of Daxuan that King Hao promised to me, King Hao can return to Beimang Kingdom."

"You must be dreaming!" Di Hao slammed his fist on the table in the hall. "I am not the emperor of Beimang Kingdom, so my words don't count."

Si Yan sneered, "Prince Hao, what our Emperor said is very important. As long as Beimang Country doesn't hand over these five cities, Prince Hao will never be able to return to Beimang Country. Today is the tenth day of the lunar month, and the ten-day deadline promised to Prince Hao by our Emperor has expired. Beimang Country has not replied yet, which means Prince Hao doesn't want to go back."

"If Daxuan doesn't allow me to go back, how can I go back?"

Di Hao stared at Si Yan with serious eyes. He had escaped twice, but was caught by Ling Mohan each time.

"How about you let me go first, and then I can convince the emperor to hand over these five cities?"

"Prince Hao is such a dreamer. Since he doesn't want to go back, then he should just stay in Daxuan."

Di Hao gritted his teeth. He never imagined that their biggest enemy, who was now in control of the Daxuan Dynasty, was actually a young girl.

There was a sound of uniform footsteps outside the door, a team of guards appeared at the door, and Ling Mohan's tall figure walked into the inn.

Si Yan calmly gave the order: "All the valuables brought by the Beimang Kingdom's envoys must be confiscated and transferred to the national treasury to supplement the expenses of the Beimang Kingdom's envoys in Daxuan."

"Yes, sir." The soldiers responded in unison and walked towards the inn room.

General Ling has already given orders that Lord Si Yan's orders are his orders.

"Who dares?" Di Hao's dozen guards drew their swords. Di Hao shouted angrily, "Si Yan, you are so bold! Do you have the order of Emperor Daxuan? How dare you seize my things?"

Si Yan chuckled: "Don't worry, after checking Prince Hao's things, I will report to His Majesty and ask him to give Prince Hao an extra steamed bun at each meal so that he won't have to eat porridge every day."

Di Hao's face turned dark. This woman wanted him to drink porridge every day?

Si Yan turned to look at Ling Mohan: "By the way, General Ling, the fur on King Hao is quite valuable, don't forget to confiscate it as well."

"Yes, sir." Ling Mohan said respectfully to Si Yan.

Di Hao's cheek twitched. Ling Mohan waved his hand and his guards rushed towards the envoy from Beimang Kingdom.

These brothers were carefully selected by him, and each of them is worth ten of his strength.

The two sides came into close combat and started fighting.

Di Hao and his gang were also very powerful, but they were ultimately outnumbered.

Di Hao took a look and saw that the entrance of the inn was still crowded with people, so he gave up struggling.

The two guards twisted Di Hao's arms. Di Hao looked at Si Yan angrily, "Si Yan, what do you want?"

Si Yan chuckled and said, "Not so good. I'll send you to the Zuowei Mansion prison and let you eat prison food. When the emperor of Beimang Kingdom hands over those five cities, I'll release you."
