One thousand two hundred and ninetieth chapters: the target of public criticism
"Sister-in-law..." Xiao Rongyan raised his head. Although his expression was calm, he could not help but show a sad mood in his dark eyes. "I and the Emperor of Great Zhou were wrong at the beginning, but now I have completely ended this mistake. The father of the two children is Xiao Rongyan, the world's richest businessman, and has nothing to do with me, the regent of the Great Yan. If my sister-in-law is for my own good, I will not mention this matter in the future."
"Okay, okay! Sister-in-law won't mention it anymore, don't mention it anymore!" Empress Dowager Yan answered repeatedly, "Ayan doesn't want to. If you don't like Meng Zhaorong, turn around... Sister-in-law will definitely find you a quiet princess."
"I'll discuss this matter later!" Xiao Rongyan said.
After hearing what Xiao Rongyan said, although Empress Dowager Yan was much more relieved, she couldn't help but worry about Murong Li. She frowned and held the handkerchief tightly, and then said to Xiao Rongyan: "Ali is indeed a little wrong this time, but today I thought about it carefully. Now the dilemma of our Yan State seems... there is no better solution! Ayan, don't you think so?"
Xiao Rongyan turned to look at Empress Dowager Yan: "What sister-in-law meant is... Ali convinced you?"
Empress Dowager Yan held the veil tightly, pretending to be relaxed and wiped the sweat in her palm with the veil: "It's not that Ali convinced me, but I really couldn't think of a better way! The main force of Da Yan was now blocked by Da Zhou in Yunjing, and the Da Zhou army would at any time on the border of our Yan State!"
She was so scared that she couldn't help but use a veil to tear her tears, and turned to Xiao Rongyan: "When the main force brought by Xie Xun will not come back, the Great Zhou army approaches Yandu, Ayan... I don't want to tell your brother after death that I did not help him defend his country! As long as the Great Zhou Emperor agrees, it can not only win a glimmer of life for our Yan Kingdom, but also fulfill the wishes of mother and your brother and unify the world!"
"Sister-in-law..." Xiao Rongyan frowned and disagreed, "Since the Great Zhou took over the natural horse farms of Daliang and Rongdi one after another, it can be said that the soldiers' combat power has increased greatly, and their troops are strong! Dazhou... the emperor is ambitious and determined to unify the world. Even if they agreed to Ali's method, our Yan State had just taken back Nanyan. Its foundation is too poor, three or five years... it may not be able to catch up with the Great Zhou."
"Ayan, do you have no confidence in the national affairs left by your mother?" Empress Dowager Yan asked Xiao Rongyan according to what his brother Zhong Xingxiao taught her, "Do you think that the national policy of our mother in Yan will definitely lose to the Great Zhou?"
Sure enough, Empress Dowager Yan was stunned when she saw this. She hurriedly continued: "I have seen a rough look at the new policies implemented by the Great Zhou Dynasty. Many of them were the new policies that my mother had practiced in our Yan State but could not be implemented. They failed without exception in our Yan State. I believe that the Great Zhou is no exception. A great person like my mother can do something successful. I don't believe that the Great Zhou Emperor can succeed!"
Xiao Rongyan lowered his eyes, picked up the hem of his clothes, folded his legs, bent his fingers and knocked on the armrest of the seat. He could guess that this was taught by his sister-in-law's brother.
Seeing Xiao Rongyan silent and thoughtful, Empress Dowager Yan adjusted her sitting posture to face Xiao Rongyan, stared at Xiao Rongyan's clear-cut side face, and choked and whispered: "My sister-in-law knows that Ali's method is actually to protect me, the mother! Sister-in-law is also... She is afraid that after destroying Xiliang, the Great Zhou would turn around and attack our Yan State. The Great Zhou army has many generals. Sister-in-law thought that she could hold the weakness of the Great Zhou Emperor and at least protect our Yan State. She did not expect... but she caused a big disaster and actually sent the handle to the Great Zhou hand in hand, so that the Great Zhou could send troops legitimately, but it was sister-in-law who was sorry for Yan State."
Xiao Rongyan had not looked up, and listened to the drizzle of rain outside, and lowered his eyes and took out the white jade geese hairpin from his sleeve and played with it. It turned out that his sister-in-law still didn't understand what he was really wrong.
"Sister-in-law... you are wrong. You should not be the first to highlight the sword to the Great Zhou when the alliance between our Yan State and the Great Zhou Dynasty has not yet dispersed!" He did not move his eyebrows, but said indifferently, "Once Xiliang is destroyed, the Great Zhou and the Yan State will be in a confrontation between the two countries, and the two countries are countries that are allied together, so... whoever taps the sword first will become the target of public criticism!"
"Not to mention... the character of the Bai family's siblings would rather commit suicide than let themselves become a family. The country is dragged down!" Xiao Rongyan's voice was filled with an inconspicuous sigh, "Sister-in-law has forgotten. When you heard that Bai Qishan, the deputy commander of the Bai family army, raised an arrow and shot the five sons of the Bai family, you forgot that you heard... Before the death of the seventeenth son of the Bai family shouted that he would kill him. He was unwilling to be a drag down by the Bai family army. When he sang the Bai family's military song to die, he once lamented that the ten-year-old child of the Bai family had such a courage. No wonder the Bai family army was invincible!"
"So, even if my sister-in-law caught the younger brother and sister of the Great Zhou Emperor, she could only get a corpse, which could not be exchanged for the Emperor of the Great Zhou Emperor's jealousy, but was crazy revenge!" When he said this, his voice paused and his throat rolled, and after a while he said in a hoarse voice, "Emperor of the Great Zhou, she... for his younger brother and sister, even his newborn child can be left. Sister-in-law should understand... If my sister-in-law really gets the body of the Bai family, the Great Zhou will definitely spare no effort to destroy the Yan Kingdom."
Empress Dowager Yan tightened her hand holding the veil.
He turned his head to look at Empress Dowager Yan, who was covered in tears: "Asia, I know that my sister-in-law did this to grasp the weakness of the Great Zhou Emperor, in case of accidents, and more importantly... I am afraid I want to see Ayan break up with the Great Zhou Emperor! My sister-in-law still doesn't believe Ayan."
Empress Dowager Yan's face suddenly changed. She didn't expect that Xiao Rongyan would see through her thoughts so easily.
She drifted her eyes and was about to deny it in a panic, but she swallowed the lies back, lowered her eyes and looked at the handkerchief in her hand, tears kept falling down, and whispered: "Yes, my sister-in-law has indeed had such thoughts! But Ayan... Ask yourself, you could have abandoned Yunjing to Jiangzi City to save her, wouldn't you give up Yan State in the future? After your brother left, you were the only one who relied on to you. It can be said that... My sister-in-law and Ali entrusted the entire Yan State to you. My sister-in-law is really afraid that you would be knocked out by the word "love" and handed over our Yan State to Bai Qingyan!"
The main hall is quiet.
