The sunset on Chiluo Peak is the same as yesterday, and the beauty is still the same. Yan Longyi looks at the woman in front of him, and she seems not to have changed at all.

There were clanging sounds coming from all around, and iron ore was constantly being transported out from here.

The place where the two used to watch the sunset has become a mine. Yan Longyi found a new place and watched the sunset with Si Yan.

"Ayan, we have to part again." After leaving Chiluo Peak, he was going back to Yan State, and Ayan was going back to Daxuan.

He is the indispensable god of war of Yan State, and she is the indispensable regent queen of Daxuan. The two people who hold the highest power in two countries must return to their own countries.

"Separation is for a better reunion." Si Yan smiled faintly and looked at Yan Longyi.

Yan Longyi kissed his most beloved woman without any hesitation.

This road is indeed very difficult, very difficult, but he will definitely make it through.

Si Yan felt the man's explosive power, his broad chest, and his strong arms...

All good things must come to an end. Yan Longyi returned to Yan State, and Si Yan also secretly returned to Daxuan.

Everything was normal in the Daxuan court. After Si Yan left, Grand Tutor Si Zhengxuan and Duke Anguo were in charge, along with Prime Minister Jia Zhongchun. No one in the court dared to say anything.

After all, in today's court, after the struggle between Prince Yong and Prince Xin, most of those left are their own people.

But the princes in various places were not so obedient!

This is the Qi family's kingdom, which was won by the Qi family's ancestors with great effort. Why should they let a woman named Si control the power?

Even if His Majesty is really ill, it should be up to them, the uncles, to take control of the power.

On the first day of May, the weather became hotter.

News came from Yayue Pavilion that hostages from various vassal kings came to the capital one after another, even the sons of King Wu and King Han came.

King Wu and King Han were originally planning to join forces, but King Wu's men suddenly intercepted a secret letter. It turned out that the King of Han was informing on King Wu that he was plotting a rebellion.

King Wu could not stand this humiliation and immediately exposed King Han's rebellion. When King Wu's letter reached the court, it was immediately passed to King Han.

When the King of Han saw it, he recognized the handwriting of the King of Wu and was so angry that he exposed the conspiracy of the King of Wu in front of the special envoy of the court. As a result, the two men became enemies.

The imperial court stepped in to mediate and demoted the titles of King Wu and King Han to Marquis Wu and Marquis Han. At the same time, they ordered the two to quickly send their direct descendants to Shangjing to be selected and trained as princes.

In the imperial study, Si Yan put down the memorial in his hand and looked up at the man in front of him.

"Marquis Boguang's move is truly extraordinary."

"It's Ayan's plan that's powerful." Boya smiled gently, humble and elegant.

“No matter how powerful a plan is, it is useless if the person carrying it out cannot understand it.”

Si Yan only mentioned the counter-espionage plan, and the rest was done by Boya. This shows that Boya has considerable political acumen.

"Ah Yan, the direct descendants of the princes from various places have arrived one after another. Where do you think it would be appropriate to arrange them?"

Boya chose his words carefully and did not say that they were hostages, but in fact, these direct descendants were the hostages.

"I'll arrange for them to stay at the former Prince Yong's Mansion. Once they arrive, I'll receive them all."

"Yes." Boya nodded. His Majesty used to live in Prince Yong's Mansion. If he really wanted to train the future crown prince of Daxuan from among them, Prince Yong's Mansion would be a very meaningful place.

"Have Prince Hao, Liang Junshan, and Wu Wan'er all been arranged?"

"It's all arranged. Prince Hao was very happy to see his own mansion, but Liang Junshan seemed very worried. Wu Wan'er made a last-minute decision to stay at Prince Hao's mansion."

Si Yan paused: "That's fine."

Wu Wan'er had no relatives or friends in Daxuan, and she came to the capital with Di Hao.

She and Di Hao were once enemies, but later they worked together and became friends.

"Prince Yan Mujin and the hostage from the Gao Kingdom have both been placed in Yanyun Pavilion."

"Let them both live in the palace."

Boya paused slightly and said, "Okay."

Boya immediately understood that A Yan was going to train them personally.

Si Yan looked at an official document on the table. It was sent by Jian Zhan, saying that His Majesty had arrived safely at the top of Yunya.

"Boya, if Aju needs any medicinal herbs, please help deliver them."

"Well, okay, don't worry, Ayan." Boya smiled slightly.

"Also, find someone to watch over Brother Mo Ran and Miss Ah He. If anything happens, notify me immediately."

"Ayan suspects that girl Ahe?" Boya asked sharply.

Si Yan didn't say yes, nor did he say no, but simply said: "Brother Mo Ran's illness is the most important thing right now."

Boya understood that he had to prepare for the worst and be prepared for a rainy day.

"Then, we must send someone to protect Aru. If anything happens to Aru, both Your Majesty and Brother Mo Ran will be in danger."

Qi Ziyu and Ling Mo Ran’s illnesses are both caused by Si Ru, so Si Ru’s safety must be ensured.

"I understand." Boya knew that A Yan had already sent people to protect Si Ru, and now he was instructing him again, which was a second layer of insurance.

Si Yan picked up another memorial and said, "One more thing. All the former officers and soldiers of the Left Guard have been promoted to the Imperial Palace Guard. Now, it is time to establish a brand new Left Guard army."

"Yes."

"I have selected 3,000 elite soldiers from Ling Mohan's 50,000 elite troops for your command. From now on, you will also serve as the Grand General of the Left Guard."

Boya bowed to Si Yan and said, "Yes."

When Si Yan saw that he did not refuse, he knew that he was willing to hold an official position in the court.

Si Yan smiled and handed the seal of the General of the Left Guard to Boya.

On the sixth day of May, except for the hostages in the Southwestern Palace, the princes of the other kings and the hostages that Si Yan specifically requested to enter Shangjing had all arrived.

Si Yan received more than ten descendants of the Qi clan at Prince Yong's Mansion, ranging in age from a few years old to those in their twenties.

In the main hall of Prince Yong's Mansion, everyone looked at this young woman. It was hard to imagine that she was the regent queen of Daxuan.

"Everyone is hungry, let's eat." Si Yan looked at the children of all ages in the room with a casual tone.

However, no one dared to pick up their chopsticks. They all stared at Si Yan blankly but did not eat.

"Who knows if there is poison in this?" asked a boy of fifteen or sixteen.

Si Yan didn't say anything. He picked up the five-year-old child and looked at him with a smile: "Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?"

The child nodded repeatedly. Si Yan fed him something and sat him down beside him.

The younger children were already extremely hungry, and when they saw Si Yan eating with them, they started eating too.

"Hey! Be careful, she might poison you!" the boy shouted.

"No." A young man in his early twenties next to the boy said, "If she wanted us to die, we would have been dead long ago."

Si Yan looked over and saw a handsome young man who calmly picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"Who is this?" Si Yan looked at the young man.

The young man stood up and bowed to Si Yan: "I am the son of Wu Hou, Qi Junye, and I greet the Regent."

"Please stand up, Prince Wu Hou." Si Yan stepped forward and helped Qi Junye up, but suddenly, a cold light flashed before his eyes, and a dagger suddenly stabbed at Si Yan.
