On the second day after Si Yan set off, Yan Longyi received a letter via carrier pigeon and learned that Si Yan had gone to Boao Mountain.

Yan Longyi's eyebrows jumped, Bo family!

Yan Longyi was not worried if A Yan went to other places. He was not worried either because the Bo family had Boya.

But the problem is that the Bo family has had problems recently.

This time when A Yan goes to the Bo family, he will definitely be in danger.

Yan Longyi spent the whole day arranging all the affairs of Yan State, and asked Yun Tan to pack up and rush to Boao Mountain overnight.

Boao Mountain is full of traps and secrets, and he is really worried about Ayan.

Although Boao Mountain is located in Daxuan, it is named after the ancestors of the Bo family who helped Emperor Gaozu of Daxuan to establish Daxuan and made great contributions.

After the Bo family retired from the court, the ancestor emperor, in gratitude for the Bo family's contribution, allocated Boao Mountain in the east of Daxuan to the Bo family.

Emperor Gaozu issued an order that Boao Mountain would belong to the Bo family for generations and would not be subject to the control of any local government.

Therefore, Boao Mountain became a place within the territory of Daxuan, independently owned by the Bo family.

At dusk, the setting sun filled the sky. Yan Longyi was about to go out when he heard the voices of a team of armored soldiers at the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion.

Then, the eunuch's shrill voice rang out from outside the palace gate: "The Queen Mother has arrived!"

Yan Longyi remained calm and went out to greet her in person. The empress dowager had already stepped into the courtyard.

Ever since Yan Longyi returned to the country last time, the Queen Mother has made a harsh statement that the King of Yan cannot leave the country unless he gets married.

Yan Longyi looked up and saw that not only the queen mother had come, but also his brother, the emperor.

More than a dozen palace maids and eunuchs surrounded the Queen Mother and the Emperor of Yan. A team of palace guards were lined up in the Prince of Yan's Mansion, and the gate was surrounded by guards from the city of Yanjing.

Queen Dowager Yan was graceful and dignified, with a dignified look, and walked towards her son calmly.

Yan Longyi bowed to the Queen Mother and Emperor Yan, "Your son pays homage to the Queen Mother and Your Majesty."

"Where are you going, my son?"

Queen Mother Yan raised her hand towards Yan Longyi and walked towards the hall while speaking.

Yan Longyi followed him into the hall and said to the Queen Mother, "I am going to patrol the southern border."

Going straight south from Yanjing City, crossing the border between Yan State and Daxuan, you can reach Boao Mountain.

The distance from Yanjing City to Boao Mountain is nearly half the distance from Yanjing to Shangjing.

It was also reasonable for him to inspect the southern border while passing through on the road.

"Oh..." The wise and experienced old queen mother replied calmly and looked at her son, "You don't have to go. Mother has already sent Yan Peng."

As soon as he finished speaking, the gate of Prince Yan's Mansion creaked open and was closed tightly by the guards.

Yan Longyi already understood, but his mother still wouldn't let him leave Yanjing City.

Queen Mother Yan looked at her silent son and stopped talking. The mother and son were secretly competing with each other.

The atmosphere in the hall was somewhat cold. The palace servants all lowered their heads and dared not make a sound.

In the end, it was Emperor Yan who spoke and broke the silence and awkwardness.

The Emperor of Yan gently took the tea served by the servant and looked at Yan Longyi with a smile: "Brother Prince Yan, the Queen Mother said that you must get married before you can leave Yanjing City. If you don't cooperate, it will be difficult for me to deal with it."

Emperor Yan paused for a moment, then said to Yan Longyi, "My brother, you are already twenty-six years old. You are not young anymore. It's time to get married."

Prince Yan said softly, "Brother Emperor, I have already said that I have a favorite woman."

"I know, I know." The Emperor of Yan said with a smile, "Everyone in Yanjing City knows that our Yan Kingdom's God of War likes Miss Si Yan, the first-rank female official of Daxuan."

"That's right." Yan Longyi said solemnly.

"But where is Miss Si Yan?"

Emperor Yan gently put down the tea in his cup and said, "My dear prince, it's been so long, and my brother and mother haven't even seen her. I'm really worried."

Emperor Yan looked at his brother with a gentle expression, "Since Miss Si Yan is your beloved woman and you both have feelings for each other, can you at least let me and the Queen Mother meet her?"

Yan Longyi understood that his brother and mother wanted A Yan to come to Yan State.

Yan Longyi was silent for a while, then spoke slowly: "Ayan's status is special, I'm afraid it's inconvenient for him to come to Yan State casually."

"So, she asked you to go to Daxuan to find her every time?"

Queen Mother Yan's expression didn't show any anger, but there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her smile. "What a stunningly beautiful woman! She actually has my son so bewitched."

"Mother, I volunteered to go to Daxuan to find Ayan." Yan Longyi said seriously.

"A gentleman dreams of marrying a beautiful lady." Queen Mother Yan chuckled. "I understand my son's feelings, but do you understand my feelings?"

Queen Mother Yan suppressed her emotions, remained calm, and put pressure on Yan Longyi.

Yan Longyi remained silent.

He had promised Ah Yan that he would not restrict Ah Yan, so he could not open his mouth to agree to his mother.

Queen Mother Yan looked at her silent son and sighed secretly.

"My mother has seen the portrait of Miss Si Yan. She is indeed very beautiful. I have also heard the story of you and her at the border. I want to meet her now. Is it so difficult?"

Queen Mother Yan was actually a little worried. She heard that not only her son liked this Miss Si Yan, but even the new emperor of Daxuan and Boya, the head of the world's number one reclusive family, were also attracted to her.

So, can her son and Si Yan succeed?

Yan Longyi was silent for a moment, then spoke carefully: "Mother, there is a long way to go. You will see Ah Yan again one day. There is no need to rush."

"How can the Queen Mother not be anxious?"

Queen Mother Yan's voice suddenly became harsh, and she stopped talking again, then gently picked up the tea beside her and drank it.

She calmed down her anger and then spoke, "My Queen Mother gives you two choices. First, there are many women in Yanjing City. You can choose a girl, get married, and go wherever you want..."

"The second option is to quickly bring this world-famous Miss Si Yan back to Yan State and let the Queen Mother see her. Which one is easier to do? Think about it."

Of course, the second one is easier to do, but it is also difficult for Yan Longyi who does not want to restrain Si Yan.

Seeing that his brother still refused to give in, the Emperor of Yan could not help but persuade him, "My brother, you know that my brother is in poor health and has not yet had any children. Now that we are both grown up, you should also understand how our mother wants to have a grandchild."

Yan Longyi was understanding, but there was absolutely no way he could do it.

A Yan has already said that he will not get married too early, and he will never let A Yan have their children before getting married.

At this moment, Yan Longyi stood up and said, "Mother, I will go to the southern part of the border inspection first. If there is a chance in the future, I will bring Ah Yan to see you."

Yan Longyi had a determined look on his face, and exuded an irresistible aura.

Queen Mother Yan placed the teacup heavily on the table and was about to get angry when the woman standing next to her spoke.

"Queen Mother, please listen to what this minister has to say."

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Yue Ning, the eldest daughter of Yue Mansion.

Le Ning was a noble lady from the State of Yan who was favored by the Queen Mother. Originally, the Queen Mother had the power to make her the Princess of Yan, but the Prince of Yan refused, and their relationship dragged on.

Queen Mother Yan was reluctant to let Le Ning suffer any injustice, so she always kept her by her side. Le Ning's status in Yan State is now no less than that of a princess of Yan State.

Hearing her beloved Le Ning speak, Queen Mother Yan's expression improved a little: "Le Ning, if you have something to say, just say it."
