Chapter 659: Secret
Chapter 659: Secret
Hearing this, Emperor Yong Ping wanted to cry even more. The problem was that Anakui’s words did not count!
“Generations of friendship…” He agreed without thinking. A slight movement would cause the entire body to move, and the ground of Daliang would shake.
Anakui’s eyes flashed.
The people of Liang were cultured and always considered themselves to be the central country. They called all other countries and tribes barbarians. Eastern barbarians, western barbarians, southern barbarians, northern barbarians…
Other than himself, he had no good reputation.
From this, one could see the attitude of the Liang people towards other races.
Contempt. I can’t beat you, but I despise you. This is annoying.
Rouran and Daliang had joined forces to suppress Northern Wu, so both sides were considered allies. Daliang was also considered friendly to the Rouran diplomatic mission. However, that kind of disdain was innate. It could be revealed in unintentional words and eyes.
The people Anakui usually interacted with were the upper-class nobles of
Daliang. As for the group of people who were friendly to Rouran, one could imagine the others.
Anakui was straightforward and did not care about trifles, but that did not
mean he was stupid.
It was clear whether they were really friendly or not. In order not to embarrass the Rouran people, they wrapped themselves up like dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival every day in Jiankang City.
For what?
Wasn’t it because they didn’t want others to laugh at them for being
uncivilized?
Otherwise, how pleasant would it be to sing loudly on the prairie, take off your clothes, and let the wind blow?
However, for the sake of Rouran’s self-esteem, she would always wrap herself
up in layers of cloth. Why was that?!
For Rouran, for Father Han?
In the end, his father died.
Who was he trying to show off his face to?
Anakui was sad. The First Prince did not get along with him. Of course, the people who dealt with the First Prince were few. It was not a good thing for him that the First Prince had ascended the throne. As expected, he was not even allowed to marry a wife, and the other party was going to do it personally.
“It’s good that Your Majesty knows my intentions. As for the First Prince, I mean the new king, he was not willing to cooperate with Daliang. He has always been close to Wu. His concubines are all from North Wu. His mother is even a princess from North Wu. Back then, in order to win over our Rouran, North Wu also put in a lot of effort.”
Emperor Yong Ping was shocked again.
Since Xie Xian did not mention it, it was possible that the First Prince’s
background was still a secret.
Or was it Anakui’s nonsense?
Of course, my father and I are willing to be on good terms with Daliang. The people of Beiwu are despicable, brave, and capricious. But the new king…” Anakui wiped away his tears and said in pain,” “It is hard to believe that my „ father would pass the throne to him. Their political views are very different.”
Oh my god, the other me in the world?
Emperor Yong Ping’s heart was in turmoil. Fortunately, he had Sikong Xiao and Xie Xian to protect him. When the Seventeenth Prince’s father died, he was still in Jiankang. Even if he really wanted to pass the throne to him, he had to have those conditions.
Regardless of whether it was true or false, the Emperor’s heart wavered.
It was not because they appreciated each other, but because they were moved.
It was better to have someone close to Daliang than someone close to Beiwu, right?
“Your Majesty!”
Anakui knelt on the ground with a plop. His small voice was crisp. Emperor Yong Ping was so scared that his heart trembled. He was afraid that Anakui would kneel too hard and shatter his knees.
“What are you doing? Please get up.” He ran to the Dragon Book table and helped her up.
Anakui gritted his teeth, his veins bulging.”! suspect that the First Prince attacked Father Han! I intend to return to Rouran to investigate this matter. I hope Your Majesty can help me!”
“As long as I find out the truth and give justice to my father, I guarantee that Rouran and Daliang will be friends for generations! We’ll be allies forever!”
He said that he wanted justice, but in fact, he almost said that he wanted to take back the throne. Returning to Rouran was not seeking justice, but launching a coup. Otherwise, how did he manage to make Daliang and Rouran friends and allies for generations?
They were still friends.
Emperor Yong Ping didn’t know what to say. He shouldn’t have let Xie Xian leave just now and let him stay to make the decision.
Although he was the emperor, he was still young. He still needed to take care of his baby. Such a major decision could be said to be suspected of subverting Rouran. He had to be very careful.
He forcefully endured the fact that he didn’t have to deal with Anakui and only let him have a good rest. He wasn’t in a hurry to return to Rouran in the next few days.
Anyway, Lai Jiankang City had already been here for two months, and he would lose his throne when he returned.
In the end, he gave Duo Fu a look. The master and servant had already practiced tacit understanding. Duo Fu sent out another look. Not long after, a eunuch came in to report that the minister had something important to ask for an audience.
Emperor Yong Ping personally sent Anakui out of the royal study. Anakui left in
a daze.
Did he agree or not?
“The emperor dares to agree? What decision could he make? There’s no point in agreeing.” The Yiyang County Lord crossed her arms and snorted coldly. She was pregnant for more than two months, and her stomach did not even bulge, but she was willing to hold it up.
She was also willing to put on makeup. Although she had a body, it did not affect her beauty at all. She was still so bright and dazzling.
“The emperor doesn’t have the final say.” “Xie Xian has the final say in Liang,” she said sarcastically. If you want to find someone to support you, if you want „ to talk to him, it should be this Xie Xian. If you block him, no one can help you.” Oh, Anakui was burly and valiant. His body was strong, but when it came to brains, it was Xie Xian.
How can a brainless person control the entire government?
Anakui’s eyes lit up when he heard this. Before the next sentence could come out of Yiyang County Head’s mouth, he had already rushed out in a hurry, wiping off the sweat that had instantly dripped down his face as he headed straight for Xie Manor.
He didn’t let them prepare the car.
The scholars of Daliang liked to use oxcarts. When they arrived at the Xie residence with ox- like steps, the sky would be completely dark, and they would be forced to walk faster.
If they rode on their Rouran horses, it would be too ostentatious, as if they were afraid that others would not recognize them.
Along the Qinhuai River, they passed through Wuyi Lane. When Anakui finally saw the signboard of the Xie family with golden words, the sky was already dark. Lanterns were raised high outside the Xie residence. His clothes were also soaked. He was sweating from the inside out, as if he had just been fished out of the water.
Panting, Butler Qi quickly served tea. He felt that he would pass out soon. Afraid that it would land in his hands, Qi San didn’t dare to delay any further and passed the message in.
But in his heart, he didn’t even know how to help the barbarians. How could he touch someone else’s residence in the dark?
When Anakui finished the second pot of tea, someone finally came from inside. Butler Qi hurriedly sent him away. When he turned around, the area where Anakui was sitting was obviously a puddle of water. If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that it was sweat.
Pitiful, he thought. He was also known as the prince of a clan.
