The daughter of the emperor is beautiful and holds the power over the world

Chapter 8 Before going to war, your marriage has been arranged

Si Yan glanced at Yun Li and said bluntly, "The Beimang army is searching everywhere for your prince's whereabouts. Now there is an opportunity to divert the enemy. Are you willing to cooperate?"

Yun Li looked at Si Yan with scrutiny. It was obvious that this Miss Si already knew his identity, or at least knew that he was the prince's man.

After thinking for a moment, Yun Li replied, "What do you need me to do?"

"Pretend to be your prince."

Yun Li immediately understood that the girl wanted him to pretend to be a prince to lure away the enemy.

"Where are we leading the enemy?"

"Where the Prince of Yong is stationed, we will lead the enemy there."

Yun Li couldn't help but be stunned. After Prince Yong abandoned his master, he had been hiding in Xiongyue Pass.

Is she planning to lead the enemy to Xiongyue Pass?

"Okay, I promise you." Yun Li's voice was filled with anger.

King Yong's betrayal made the Yan soldiers pay a heavy price. If they could lead the Beimang army to Xiongyue Pass, the Yan State would be able to vent their anger.

But Yun Li was still confused in his heart, why did this Miss Si do this?

Si Yan looked at the young man in front of him and said, "Are you wondering why I, a Daxuan native, would lead the enemy to the Daxuan Pass?"

"Miss Si is so insightful, I admire her."

Yun Li bowed to Si Yan and said, "Excuse me, Miss Si, why are you doing this?"

"To save your prince." Si Yan looked at the commander of the Yanwang Palace's hidden guards and spoke slowly, "At the same time, to save Daxuan. These two things are not contradictory."

Yun Li frowned and said, "Please forgive my ignorance, I still don't quite understand."

Si Yan said calmly, "Without Daxuan, Yan State cannot resist the invasion of Beimang State alone. Similarly, without Yan State, Daxuan State cannot resist Beimang State alone. To deal with the powerful Beimang State, the two countries must join forces. Neither can be missing."

Yun Li understood that this Miss Si still wanted to promote cooperation between the two countries.

But Daxuan has already betrayed the State of Yan. How can they just reunite like that?

Besides, she is a weak woman, what can she do?

But Yun Li didn't say much. He bowed to Si Yan and said, "I'll leave it to you, Miss Si."

……

Half an hour later, a soldier from the Beimang army came to report: "General, we've discovered the whereabouts of the King of Yan and that woman."

"Where is it?" Liang Junshan asked sternly.

"They ambushed a small group of us, stole two horses, and headed towards Xiongyue Pass."

"Chase!" Liang Junshan gave the order with a gloomy face.

The one stationed at Xiongyue Pass now is Prince Yong. He had received secret information long ago that Emperor Daxuan had issued an order forbidding Prince Yong to send troops.

He wanted to see, when the Beimang army was approaching, would King Yong choose to protect Yan Longyi or fight against the Beimang army?

The heavy snow at the border fell all night and finally stopped, leaving a thick layer of snow covering the ground.

Si Yan took Yun Li and headed straight for Xiongyue Pass. They left traces along the way to lure the soldiers of Beimang Kingdom.

After a night and a day, we finally arrived at Xiongyue Pass in the evening of the next day.

The guards on the tower saw the two men and shouted, "Who are you?"

"It's me, the eldest daughter of the Situ Mansion, the younger sister of General Xuanwei Si Qingshan, Si Yan."

Si Yan directly revealed his identity.

"Who is the person next to you?" Yang Ke, the guard of Xiongyue Pass, glanced at Si Yan and fell on Yun Li, who was covered in blood beside her.

"This is my guard." Si Yan said loudly.

"Miss Si, please wait a moment. I will send someone to report this."

"Thank you for your help, General." Si Yan bowed.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Si Qingshan came on horseback himself. Seeing his sister in tattered clothes and disheveled hair, Si Qingshan's eyes were red.

He dismounted and hugged Si Yan in his arms: "Brother thought... I would never see you again."

Si Qingshan's throat choked and his eyes were wet with tears.

His men found Ayan's ornaments on a tragic battlefield.

He thought A Yan was dead.

He shouldn't have agreed to let his father bring this girl to the border. If she had stayed in Shangjing, so many things wouldn't have happened.

"I'm fine." Si Yan patted his elder brother's shoulder gently, his expression solemn, "Brother, I want to see Prince Yong."

Si Qingshan couldn't help but be stunned: "It's dark now, why not talk about it tomorrow?"

The fact that A Yan had secretly slipped out of the army had been known to the imperial envoy, and Prince Yong was in a very difficult situation.

Half a month ago, a special envoy from the imperial court came to the border and ordered that no one in the army was allowed to leave Xiongyue Pass.

A Yan was able to leave the pass only by claiming that he was not a member of the army and exerting pressure with the identity of his father, Situ.

The envoy was furious about this matter, and it was only after King Yong intervened that the envoy calmed down.

Now if Ayan goes to see King Yong, he might be displeased.

"Brother, I have important military information." Si Yan said.

Seeing his sister's serious expression, Si Qingshan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see Prince Yong."

Si Qingshan glanced at Yun Li standing beside him and said to Si Yan, "Are you sure this is your guard?"

He was the one who arranged all the guards for this girl, how come he doesn't know her?

"I met a refugee on the road. I felt sorry for him, so I brought him back..."

Yunli: ...

Si Qingshan didn't ask any more questions. How many people were displaced by the war launched by Beimang Kingdom?

There were many refugees on the road, so it was not surprising to bring back one or two people.

Si Qingshan arranged two subordinates to look after Yun Li and took his sister to see King Yong.

"To be honest, I'm not sure whether Prince Yong will meet you. Those who have wanted to see Prince Yong in the past few days have all returned empty-handed, including you."

Half a month ago, all the soldiers of the three armies were ready to fight against the Beimang Kingdom together with the Yan army, but the imperial court suddenly issued an imperial edict.

Half a day after receiving the order, King Yong ordered the army to stay where it was.

For the next three days, King Yong refused to eat or drink and did not see anyone.

The officers and soldiers in the army were discussing the matter, and many of them risked their lives to advise King Yong to send troops.

"I understand, big brother. I'll tell you after I meet Prince Yong."

Seeing that his sister was determined to see Prince Yong, Si Qingshan knew that he could not persuade her, so he said nothing more.

But there was one thing he had to tell A Yan.

Seeing that there was no one around, Si Qingshan whispered, "Ayan, there's something I haven't told you."

"Brother, it's not too late to talk about it later."

"Before you left for the war, your marriage was arranged by His Majesty and father."

Si Qingshan took a deep breath and shook off the stone that was pressing on his heart.

Some time ago, he had been considering Ayan's mood and didn't dare to tell her.

Now that the news has spread, it can no longer be concealed.
