With a million soldiers, the empress begged me not to rebel

Humph, just pretending!

Chen Qingwan sneered, and became more certain of her guess.

He wanted to take this opportunity to show his strength to other countries.

Win over people's hearts and then replace them?

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

Li Mu quickly agreed, but he was secretly wondering in his heart, what on earth is Lu Yan up to?

Chen Qingwan pondered for a moment, a look of determination flashed in her eyes, and she said:

"I will go to Shannan Prefecture in person!"

"Your Majesty, this..."

Li Mu showed concern and tried to dissuade him:

"If you leave, something unexpected might happen!"

"It's okay." Chen Qingwan waved her hand and said firmly:

"I want to see what tricks Lu Yan is up to! Besides, the Datong Dynasty is now besieged on all sides. I need to take this opportunity to build relationships with envoys from various countries, seek support, and by the way, give those fence-sitters a try!"

Chen Qingwan thought to herself, Lu Yan, do you think you can cover up everything just by organizing a sports meet?

I want to go and see what tricks you are playing!

I want you to know that this world is still mine!

At this moment, Chen Qingwan looked haggard, with sunken eye sockets and a frighteningly pale face.

The long battle had exhausted her both physically and mentally, and her nerves were stretched to the limit, unable to relax for a moment.

She always had trouble falling asleep. The slightest movement would wake her up and she would have nightmares one after another.

The dream was filled with bloody battlefields and the wailing of soldiers.

She became extremely sensitive, and everyone seemed like an enemy to her and she felt like everyone wanted to harm her.

If a cup of hot tea is handed to her, she will knock it over reflexively.

Then he stared at the maid in horror, as if she was holding a deadly poison in her hand.

She locked herself in an invisible cage, full of suspicion, fear and anxiety.

This situation made her even more suspicious of Lu Yan's intention to host the World Games.

It also strengthened her determination to go to Shannan Prefecture in person.

She wanted to see with her own eyes what conspiracy Lu Yan was plotting!

At the same time, Princess Aisha, who was far away in Java, was dressing herself in front of the mirror.

Her slender fingers gently stroked the crystal clear jade pendant on her neck, which was left to her by Night Owl.

Ever since she was hijacked by pirates and rescued by Night Owl, Aisha has been obsessed with this mysterious man.

Although the loss of Haixiaguan made her love and hate Yexiao, her curiosity and affection for him could not be shaken off.

"Princess, news has come from Shannan Prefecture that they will be hosting a World Games there and all nations are invited to participate."

The maid's voice interrupted Aisha's thoughts.

"Shannan Prefecture? Sports meet?"

Aisha's eyes lit up. Isn't this where the Night Owl is?

"Great! This princess was just worried about not finding a chance to go there again!"

She immediately got up and ran to the king's bedroom excitedly, saying coquettishly:

"Brother, I'm going to Shannan Prefecture to participate in the sports meet!"

The King of Java has always been very fond of his only sister and naturally would not refuse her request.

He immediately arranged a ship and entourage to escort Princess Aisha to Shannan Prefecture.

"This time, I must see him again!"

Aisha was secretly looking forward to it, with a happy smile on her face.

In Shannan Prefecture, Lu Yan was standing on the city wall, looking at the endless stream of people in the distance with a smug look on his face.

"Sir, envoys and athletes from various countries have arrived in Shannan Prefecture one after another."

Xiaoyu walked to Lu Yan and said respectfully.

"Very good." Lu Yan nodded.

"This World Games must be held with great fanfare, so that the whole world can witness the strength of our Shannan Prefecture!"

"Sir, Miss Chen is here too."

Li Kui suddenly appeared behind Lu Yan and whispered.

"Miss Chen?"

Lu Yan was slightly stunned, then a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What is she doing here? Is she here to congratulate me?"

"I don't know."

Night Owl shook his head.

"However, she is accompanied by a number of Yulin soldiers, and it seems that they have bad intentions."

"interesting."

"It seems that this sports meet will be more lively than I imagined!"

Just then, a magnificent ship flying the Javanese flag slowly sailed into the port.

Princess Aisha walked down from the boat slowly, surrounded by her maids.

A pair of beautiful eyes looked around, as if looking for something.

"Princess, what are you looking for?"

The maid asked curiously.

Aisha blushed slightly and said calmly:

"Nothing... nothing, I just wanted to see the scenery of Shannan Prefecture."

However, her eyes were always searching for that familiar figure in the crowd.

"Night Owl, where are you?"

Aisha muttered to herself, feeling a mixture of inexplicable anticipation and uneasiness.

……

At the same time, in the distant Beixiang Kingdom, a mind-blowing drama is being staged.

Princess Mingyue has become depressed since returning to her country.

The delicacies from land and sea that once made her salivate now seemed like chewing wax to her.

Princess Mingyue tossed and turned at night, unable to fall asleep.

She counted sheep until they became bald, but she still couldn't fall asleep.

Lu Yan's annoying yet charming face always appeared in her mind.

One moment he was on the city wall, waving his fists and pointing out the way forward, while the masts, oars and sails were reduced to ashes while he was chatting and laughing.

One moment he is sharp-tongued and vicious, and he is always complaining about everything.

She was so angry that she looked like a gangster and deserved a beating!

The King of Beixiang looked at his daughter who was getting thinner and thinner, and his brows were filled with worry!

He was the king of a country, with three thousand beauties in his harem, but he only had this one precious daughter.

I'm afraid of it falling if I hold it in my hand, and I'm afraid of it melting if I hold it in my mouth.

But now she looks like a withered flower. How can he not feel sad?

How could he have known that the apple of his eye was actually suffering from lovesickness.

And the object of his longing is Lu Yan, the prefect of Shannan Prefecture who robbed his city!

This is simply outrageous! This is intolerable!

The queen, however, saw through her daughter's thoughts at a glance. After all, she was an experienced person and knew many things!

She took Princess Mingyue's hand and said earnestly:

"My silly daughter, what's wrong with you? Are you still thinking about that Lu Yan?"

"Talk to the Queen Mother. She'll help you find out how to take him down!"

Princess Mingyue blushed and stammered, unable to speak.

Like a child who has done something wrong, he wishes he could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.

The queen sighed. What was there to not understand?

"Ah, you are such a loser! He kidnapped you, and you still can't forget him?"

"When my mother was young, her suitors lined up from east to west of the city. They were all young talents, both talented in literature and martial arts."

"Mother, I wasn't kidnapped by him! It was me who didn't want to come back..."

Princess Mingyue defended herself in a low voice, as thin as a mosquito, for fear that her father would hear her.

The queen was at a loss for words. This child was truly...

"Oh, forget it, forget it. I will go talk to your father and ask him to let you go to Shannan Prefecture again. By the way, I will help you find out about Lu Yan's background and find out who he is and how he can be so obsessed with my precious daughter!"

"Mother, you are so kind!"
