After my soul traveled to ancient times, I don't want to be cannon fodder

I desperately want to stay in a quiet environment and think carefully about what to do next.

Unfortunately, he wanted to be quiet, but the reality did not allow him to be quiet.

The palace door was slammed shut, and when Yelu Zhen opened the room, he saw the anxious expressions of the think tanks in the delegation.

"Your Highness, something happened!" The delegation representative Liu Dingfu spoke first.

"Something happened in Dayong Palace today, but the Imperial Guards suddenly dispatched. The Duke of Ying's Mansion, the Marquis of Cheng'en's Mansion, and other mansions that were previously connected to the two mansions were all surrounded by the Imperial Guards, and their entire families were imprisoned."

"Come in quickly and tell me the specific situation you have found out." Yelu Zhen didn't care about the social death. The sudden incident at the Duke of Yingguo's Mansion was somewhat related to his Beidi.

After all, this person has always been a friendly partner of their Beidi.

Zhang Yu continued, "Our people in the palace have reported that Crown Prince Dayong has been kneeling at the gate of the Qinzheng Palace for half a day and a whole night."

"Before noon, Princess Zhaohua suddenly requested an audience. Afterwards, the Crown Prince was invited into the palace. The Empress opened the palace gates and headed to the Qinzheng Palace!"

"Empress?" Yelu Zhen was slightly taken aback. "Is it Empress Dayong? Wasn't she suddenly confined to the imperial palace five years ago? Why did she suddenly come out?"

Everyone was puzzled. After all, the discord between the Emperor and Empress of Dayong had always been a topic of conversation after tea.

Now that the Queen has suddenly left the palace and the Duke of Ying's Mansion is in trouble, there must be a connection between the two.

Before anyone could figure out what the problem was, a guard hurried in and said nervously, "Your Highness, the Dayong Black Dragon Guards have suddenly appeared and surrounded the entire Sifang Guild Hall!"

"How dare you!" Yelu Zhen shouted angrily, "What on earth does Qi Yu want to do?"

Yelu Zhen stood up while speaking and was about to walk out angrily.

He wanted to see what the Great Yong court wanted to do.

The group looked anxious and hurriedly followed their prince out.

Outside the Sifang Guild Hall.

The Western Rong delegation came out first, followed by the Northern Di and Southern Zhao.

Meng Huanyan's face was pale. The moment he saw Yelu Zhen, he glared at him with murderous intent.

Yelu Zhen avoided the sight.

He didn't want to do that, so why should everything be blamed on him?

Not far away, Qi Yu was riding a tall horse, wearing a dark robe with silver patterns, a plain crown on his head, and a red cloak on the outside. He looked cold and majestic.

Behind him was a luxurious carriage, protected by two rows of Black Dragon Guard cavalry.

Looking at this situation, everyone probably understood which prince or grandson of the emperor in the palace had come out to cause trouble.

Sure enough, when they arrived in front of the Sifang Guild Hall, the guards finally paused.

All the Black Dragon Guards dismounted, and Qi Yu personally went to the side of the carriage to wait.

When the car door opened, a girl with delicate makeup and a cold face walked out.

Her black hair was tied up high, she wore a golden crown on her head, and was dressed in a lotus-pink brocade dress with lotus cloud patterns and linked beads and peacock patterns, and a pleated satin skirt with dark patterns.

The whole person looks elegant and noble, as bright as the autumn moon.

A slender white hand stretched out from under the lotus pink robe and rested on the back of Qi Yu's outstretched hand.

She lifted her palace skirt and stepped down from the carriage step by step.

She was dignified and polite, yet inexplicably felt imposing.

"Greetings to Princess Zhaohua!" All the Black Dragon Guards, soldiers from the Sifang Guild Hall, and onlookers saluted.

The envoys from the three countries also bowed.

Only the seventh prince of Beidi, Yelu Zhen, the second prince of Xirong, Li Yuanche, and the princess of Nanzhao, Meng Huanyan, just nodded slightly.

Meng Huanyan looked at her coldly.

For some reason, she always felt that everything that happened to her was related to the woman in front of her.

She couldn't help but show it on her face as she spoke bluntly, "Princess Zhaohua, may I ask, for this plot against me on your territory, should Dayong give me an explanation?"

Meng Huanyan shouted coldly, wanting to ask for an explanation for herself as soon as she opened her mouth.

But Zhong Ning looked indifferent and said calmly: "Catch him!"

Several Black Dragon Guards immediately stepped forward, intending to capture Meng Huanyan, but were blocked by members of the Nanzhao delegation.

At this moment, both sides are standing with swords in their hands, facing each other!

The Northern Di and Western Rong envoys were also shocked by Zhong Ning's sudden outburst. When the Black Dragon Guards drew their swords, several masters in charge of protecting the envoys also drew their swords to oppose them.

The representative of the Nanzhao delegation was a seemingly gentle Confucian scholar named Chu Liang. Seeing Zhong Ning's indiscriminate behavior and the fact that he dared to offend their Nanzhao princess, his face immediately turned cold and he asked:

"Princess Zhaohua, what do you mean by this? When our embassy visits your country, is this how Dayong treats embassies from neighboring nations? I wonder what His Majesty the Great Yong thinks of Princess Zhaohua's actions?"

This question, raised in public, was intended to point out that Dayong, as the host, neglected the delegation and showed no courtesy.

At this time, the curious people had put down what they were doing and rushed to watch. After all, the court had treated the delegations with great favors in the past.

It was the first time they had seen the imperial court actually dare to engage in combat with the diplomatic delegation!

Zhong Ning waved her hand slightly, and the Black Dragon Guards took two steps back with their swords in hand, standing on both sides of her, forming a confrontation with her as the center.

Facing the surrounding discussions and the questioning of the Nanzhao delegation, Zhong Ning's face darkened slightly and he said in a cold voice:

"Ever since the delegation arrived in Beijing, our Great Yong has treated them with great courtesy. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led all the officials to personally welcome them, and the people are also delighted."

"The imperial court has prepared everything the delegation needs."

"I would like to ask Master Chu, how has my Great Yong wronged your Nanzhao that you dare to assassinate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of our dynasty?"

Zhong Ning shouted loudly, and the surrounding area suddenly exploded.

The common people were filled with righteous indignation at the revelation that Nanzhao had secretly murdered His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

[Nanzhao harmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? How dare they?]

[I heard that Nanzhao is the best at using poison. Could it be that they have poisoned the prince?]

[Didn't I hear that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince asked to marry the Princess of Nanzhao after the banquet?]

"You're stupid! The Crown Prince has only met the Princess of Nanzhao once, and you're asking for her hand in marriage straight away. This is totally unacceptable."

........

There was discussion one after another, and everyone in the delegation looked hesitant.

Chu Liang was so angry that his face flushed red, and he directly retorted:

"Princess Zhaohua's words are like a huge bucket of dirty water. I wonder how our Nanzhao country secretly harmed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. When we left the palace banquet yesterday, your country's Crown Prince was still fine!"

What I mean is that no one is blind. Your Highness is in good health, and that is something that everyone can see. Don't talk nonsense here!

"At the palace banquet yesterday, the crown prince of our dynasty suddenly asked to marry your princess. He knelt for half a day and a whole night, and his love for you remained unchanged!" Zhong Ning responded calmly.

Chu Liang immediately replied, "My princess is so beautiful, it's unknown whether your prince will fall in love with her at first sight!"

What I mean is that your prince is obsessed with lust, what does it have to do with us in Nanzhao?
