Happy Emperor

Chapter 142 1 chance

"Then why do you do this?"

"Since An Xia can't kill Emperor Li, then let Emperor Li kill An Xia!"

When Duan Chengming heard this, his brows immediately furrowed.

Now he finally understood it completely.

Lu Jianyan knew how sinister this plan was, and at this moment he did not dare to underestimate this person in the slightest.

Even Emperor Li, the top figure in Daxia, was within his calculations.

Moreover, it is a two-way killing by borrowing a knife.

No matter who dies between Emperor Li and An Xia, he can reap the benefits.

This situation is still a dead end, and there seems to be no way to break it.

He now began to suspect that this scheme had been implemented since Tang Bo first withheld food shipped to the front line.

Because only in this way can Emperor Li be led to Anfeng City and this plan can be truly implemented.

The more Duan Chengming thought about it, the colder he felt, because he was unknowingly helping Tang Bo and others complete this plan.

"Yes, as long as the emperor doesn't enter Anfeng City, the game will be broken, right?"

Duan Chengming's eyes lit up and he said, "Uncle, I will leave the city right now to persuade Emperor Li to leave."

"You need to leave the city." Li Zuo also seemed a little conflicted at this moment.

His brows were furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After a long while, he slowly spoke: "Chengming, if Emperor Li knew that An Xia wanted to assassinate him, based on your understanding of Emperor Li, what would he do?"

"Uh... he should be killed directly. Emperor Li has always been decisive in killing people. There is no way he would allow such a person to exist."

"Alas! Perhaps this is the fate of the Great Xia royal family."

Li Zuo sighed deeply, "The previous emperor was benevolent and righteous, and hesitated to make decisions when necessary, which led to the current state of Daxia. But the current Emperor Li is too ruthless and ruthless, and doesn't know how to make reasonable concessions for the sake of peace."

"Go out of the city and fetch Emperor Li." Li Zuo lowered his head and took a sip of tea. "But don't try to persuade Emperor Li to leave. Tell the truth about everything. It's up to Emperor Li to decide."

"why?"

"Remember, you are a subject and cannot make any decisions for the emperor."

"Could it be that...could it be that even a white lie is not okay?"

"No! Unless you want the Duan family and our Li family to be executed."

"My nephew knows."

After Duan Chengming finished speaking, he turned around and left the prefectural government.

.......

Outside Anfeng City.

"His Majesty."

An Bilie came to Lin Tian with a serious expression and called out softly.

"Your Majesty, the spies have returned."

"Ah."

Lin Tian was not actually asleep just now. He opened his eyes immediately when he heard An Bilie calling him.

"You're not asleep?" Qi Mengchan's cheeks flushed.

Lin Tian was not in the mood to flirt with Qi Mengchan at the moment.

When he saw An Bilie's expression, he knew there must be something wrong ahead: "Is there an ambush ahead?"

"No." An Bilie shook his head and hurriedly explained: "No, to be more precise, the people who ambushed him left."

"The spies who returned reported that they found signs of people lurking on both sides of the mountain. They also traced their footprints and found that they had returned to Anfeng City."

"I have already arranged for some people to occupy the high ground on both sides. Your Majesty, we should have no problem passing through now."

"Well, I know!"

Lin Tian stood up, stretched, and squinted at the sun.

"It's already Si time, let's go and go into the city."

Although he had just heard that the enemies who were going to attack him were in Anfeng City, he did not take it to heart at all.

First, if these people really had the power to fight against him, they would not need to launch a sneak attack; second, he needed to determine whether the food stored in Anfeng City posed a safety hazard.

This would be a fatal matter if he went to war with King Pingdong and ran out of food supply later.

There is no need to fight this war.

"His Majesty."

An Bilie did not organize the Royal Guards to leave as ordered.

He stood there with a confused look on his face.

After a long while, he finally spoke: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty has something else to report.

"What is it that you and I need to hide?"

Lin Tian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at An Bilie and asked.

He believed that he had been extremely kind to An Bilie and the An family since he took control of the northern political power.

Moreover, he regarded An Bilie as his own brother.

"Your Majesty, my lord...my lord."

An Bilie was extremely solemn, his fists clenched tightly, his eyes fixed on the ground, not daring to look up at Emperor Li.

Lin Tian had never seen An Bilie like this.

Even when he first came through and asked An Bilie to be loyal to him and resist Ji Feng, he only hesitated for a moment.

"An Bilie, you are my subject and even more so my brother."

Lin Tian came to An Bilie and helped him up.

"No matter what happens, as long as I am here, I will fight for you!"

"Your Majesty~"

An Bilie's expression was somewhat moved. He stood up and looked directly into Emperor Li's eyes.

After a while, he took out half of the short blade from his arms and handed it to Emperor Li.

"This is what the spies just brought back from the top of the mountain."

Lin Tian took the short blade with one hand, looked at An Bilie again in confusion, then looked down at the short blade in his hand.

The short blade was so ordinary that if Lin Tian used a little force, he could even break it.

However, there was a word "An" engraved on the handle of the short blade.

When Lin Tian saw this word, he understood everything.

"What is your relationship with the person who wants to attack me?" Lin Tian asked.

"He's my uncle, and Anjie's father. Anxia!"

"Why did he do this?"

"He and his father..."

"Okay, I understand."

Lin Tian replied calmly and said nothing more.

Instead, he played with the short blade in his hand.

He was thinking about how to deal with this matter.

If it weren't for my caution, I might have died on the road last night. From this point of view alone, An Xia must be killed. Isn't the greatest crime in ancient times to want to kill the king?

But if he wanted to kill him, how would he deal with An Bilie and An Jie?

"Damn it, this predecessor is really looking for trouble. No, this can't be blamed on that unlucky guy, Ji Feng should be blamed more."

Lin Tian smiled bitterly in his heart.

"Your Majesty, my uncle saved my life back then, and he did this for my father. I dare not forget the grace of your majesty and the love of family. I am willing to end my life here in exchange for my uncle's."

An Bilie knelt on the ground again.

After saying this, he wanted to draw the sword he was carrying.

"Your Majesty~Don't!"

Qi Mengchan stood beside the two of them and saw everything.

Although she didn't know the inside story, she knew that An Bilie was definitely a rare loyal minister beside Emperor Li. Seeing that he was about to take her life, she hurriedly shouted.

However, her shouting did not stop An Bilie from doing what he was doing.

The sword had been drawn, and An Bilie placed it across his neck and closed his eyes, without any hesitation during the whole process.

Perhaps at this moment, he didn't know how to face Emperor Li, let alone how to face his uncle An Xia.

Because from his point of view, neither of them was wrong, but they were both "wrong".

But An Bilie's sword did not really stab him.

The blade across his neck was blocked by a short blade.

Before he knew it, Emperor Li was already standing in front of him.

"His Majesty?"

"Okay, you've already died once."

"His Majesty!"

"I want you to keep your life and fight against the King of the East. As for~"

Lin Tian took the short blade and looked at it in front of his eyes.

Then he grasped the handle of the knife, swung it hard and threw it into the stream.

"As for An Xia, I will give him a chance."

"Thank you, thank you for your grace!"

An Bilie knocked his head heavily to the ground. He didn't expect that Emperor Li could really be so "tolerant and generous".

"However, this opportunity only comes once! And only this once."

After saying that, Lin Tian did not look back, nor did he support An Bilie.

Instead, he led his horse towards Anfeng City.
