Distressed Young Woman Transmigrates: Wangfei Who Defies the Imperial Edict Chapter 267: Sacrificing everything for her (1)
Yan Chi returned to his mansion, and changed into a set of black robes with silver trim, his brows and eyes no longer had the bewitching aura of the past, replaced by a dignified Xiao Sha.
He took out a bronzing chrysanthemum token from the simple and unremarkable black wooden box, and carefully touched the protruding pattern on it. In the slender and graceful phoenix eyes, there was infinite nostalgia, and finally he let out a long sigh.
He put the token on the high platform, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
Stand up and put the token in your pocket.
Feng Luoxuan is in the study of the temporary palace, having a headache about disaster relief.
A guard came to report: "Your Majesty, King Beiqi is asking to see you."
The corners of Feng Luoxuan's lips twitched imperceptibly, and finally came.
"Xuan."
Yan Chi grabbed his robe and saluted the emperor as a courtier.
Yan Chi stepped forward and announced: "Your Majesty, I'm here to beg for Xiao Shangshu's favor."
"Oh, what Xiao Yuntian committed was treason. If the evidence is convincing, it is a major crime committed by Zhujiu clan." Feng Luoxuan leaned lazily on the back of the chair with a very leisurely expression.
Yan Chi's eyes flickered and he sneered in his heart. This was to remind him deliberately that the price needed to be higher in exchange for Xiao Shangshu's life.
"I firmly believe that Lord Xiao Shangshu is loyal to the emperor and Fengguo, and has no second thoughts. This matter is just a burden from others."
Feng Luoxuan shot him coldly: "You care about Yao'er's family, so how are you going to prove his innocence?"
Yan Chi met the emperor's gaze neither humble nor overbearing, and said respectfully: "I will definitely try my best to find out the matter and find out the culprit. I believe in Xiao Shangshu's innocence, and I am willing to use the Yan family's salt road, timber, and money bank as three items." Business in exchange for Master Shangshu's right to reverse the case."
A gleam flashed in Feng Luoxuan's eyes, and his handsome eyebrows were raised: "Yan Chi, Ming people don't speak dark words, and I don't beat around the bush. If you want to save Xiao Yuntian, the Yan family's business is not enough."
Yan Chi secretly scolded him for being greedy and trying to get ahead, but now that Xiao Yuntian is in his hands, what can he do if he is under the control of others.
"What does the emperor mean?"
Feng Luoxuan's eyes were as deep as a pool with a cold light, and he directly stated his intentions: "What I want is for the Yan family to mobilize the tiger charms of the Xiling Army, and exchange his life with 100,000 Xiling troops."
Yan Chi said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, the Xiling Army was taken over by the imperial court more than ten years ago. Although the Yan family was entrusted with Xiling County, since the Xiling Army was handed over to the imperial court, it has never interfered in Xiling military affairs. "
