Chapter 145 The concubine who died young in the novel "The Emperor Takes His Minister's Wi
As soon as they dropped their weapons, Song Xuean, who had been waiting for the right moment, darted out and retrieved all the swords and knives.
The people who had already taken up positions in the four directions all stared coldly at Song Xue'an, their eyes as cold as if they were looking at a dead person.
Song Xue'an ignored them all and ran to Le Yan with her weapons to show off, "It's alright now, I've put away all the weapons. If you're still worried, I'll drug them so they can't fight even if they want to."
As she spoke, Song Xue'an's hands were itching to take out the medicine packet.
Le Yan quickly stopped her, "There's no need. Let them sober up and talk things out first."
If the negotiations go well, great; if not, let them fight it out.
She only had to stop them once; there was no need to keep doing so. After all, it was their own choice to fight to the death, so let them fight it out; she didn't care anymore.
With this in mind, Le Yan looked at Emperor Kangning and the others with an extremely calm gaze, without any extra emotion.
Those people were all martial artists with excellent hearing, and they were all stunned when they heard what she and Song Xue'an were saying.
Apart from Wen Yingchen, the others all knew Leyan relatively well. As soon as they heard her words, they understood what she was thinking, and their hearts were filled with different emotions.
Although Wen Yingchen didn't understand Le Yan, he went with the flow and reacted the same way as others.
Ahead, Le Yan still held the dagger to her neck, and Song Xue'an stood beside her, watching. Although the dagger was not sharpened, it would still hurt if she accidentally cut herself.
"Your Majesty, Lanyi, Tangtang, Nanyi..."
She called out to each person in turn, her gaze landing on Wen Yingchen. Le Yan was a little puzzled. Who was this person?
Song Xuean quickly explained: "He is the Grand Secretary Wen Yingchen."
Le Yan's almond-shaped eyes widened slightly. Oh wow, the second male lead, the chief minister from the book!
How did he get involved in this farce?
She doesn't think she's ever met him before.
Le Yan was completely baffled.
So she chose not to think about it anymore and just had people sit down and talk things out, to avoid a bloody fight in the middle of the night and disturbing the peace.
Looking at Emperor Kangning and the others, Le Yan said, "Let's talk things out calmly. After we've talked, we can do whatever we want."
The group looked at each other in silence, but all followed Leyan.
In a pavilion in the corner of the courtyard, they sat in a circle, but each of them seemed to be like opposite poles, irreconcilable.
Le Yan's hand was getting a little tired, so she put the dagger down, but still held it firmly in her hand.
Emperor Kangning's eyebrows twitched, and he reached out to snatch the dagger. Liu Chutang had the same idea and also struck out.
But Leyan was wary of them, so she quickly stepped back and dodged away.
It's all thanks to the physical training she's been getting from Liu Chutang lately that her reaction time is so fast.
She looked at Emperor Kangning and Liu Chutang, a forced smile on her face: "Your Majesty, Tangtang, what are you planning to do?"
Emperor Kangning pursed his thin lips. "A sharp weapon can hurt people. Goodness, put the dagger down."
Liu Chutang lowered her eyes and remained silent.
Xiao Lanyi glanced sideways at Emperor Kangning, her disgust evident in her eyes.
He smiled at Le Yan before mocking Emperor Kangning: "I believe Qingqing would not harm herself. Your Majesty should behave yourself."
To avoid upsetting Qingqing and causing her to hold him accountable.
Emperor Kangning already loathed Xiao Lanyi, and now, hearing him mock him, he glared at him fiercely. "If you can't shut your mouth, I can help you."
If it weren't for his obedient servant keeping watch, everyone present would have become a newcomer to the mass grave.
Emperor Kangning's eyes were deep and dark, with occasional flashes of scarlet light, clearly indicating that he was not thinking anything good.
Seeing this, Le Yan glared at Xiao Lanyi and said, "Be quiet!"
He was already a thorn in Emperor Kangning's side; if he angered him further, wouldn't he be killed by him?
She glanced at Xiao Lanyi, and seeing that he reluctantly shut his mouth, Le Yan slowly turned her gaze to Wen Yingchen, who had been staring at her.
When she met Wen Yingchen's burning gaze, Le Yan subconsciously looked at Liu Chutang.
These two are actually a married couple.
Liu Chutang immediately realized what was going on and explained, "Yan Yan, he and I are just a fake couple. We got married for Old Madam Wen's benefit. There's nothing else between us."
She didn't want Yan Yan to misunderstand her and Wen Yingchen; the two of them had absolutely no relationship.
Yes, but it's just a relationship of exploitation and being exploited.
Wen Yingchen nodded in agreement: "Yes, we are only getting married on a sham basis."
He was also afraid of being misunderstood.
In particular, tonight is the first time the two of them have actually met.
She had only just met him.
Glancing at the people around him, Wen Yingchen slowly tightened his grip. Compared to them, he was much slower.
Le Yan didn't misunderstand the two of them; she had a book that described the whole story of their marriage.
She was just a little embarrassed, after all, the couple in front of her were husband and wife.
... Oh right, in a way, Emperor Kangning and Song Xue'an could also be considered husband and wife.
So she was actually an unexpected addition among them!
Le Yan thought to herself, "Let's talk this out. What are you all planning to do?"
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at her.
The words weren't spoken, but the meaning was clear.
Startled, Le Yan immediately took a step back, looking at them warily.
Why are so many people eyeing her flesh, which weighs several dozen kilograms?
Emperor Kangning bluntly said, "My dear, come back to the palace with me and be my empress."
Liu Chutang and Song Xuean immediately chimed in, "Yan Yan, we still want to travel the world!"
Xiao Lanyi retorted, "Qingqing, our wedding ceremony isn't over yet."
They all had something to say, and Wen Yingchen fell into deep thought.
