Disobedient Minister Against Favors

Chapter 12 Not Approachable

Emperor Yan entered the hall quickly, and the dragon chair made of pure gold stood proudly on the fifth step jade pedestal, proudly overseeing the hall in a serious and solemn manner.

There was only one individual kneeling alone in the hall at this moment. Even though his knees were on the ground, his back was upright. “Your Majesty, a calamity is looming. We heard from a Yun Shuang Kingdom spy which Wei Chen caught, that the Yun Shuang Kingdom is planning to join forces with the southern Zhao Kingdom to deal with us. Your Majesty, what should our Kingdom do if both north and south attack?”

“What?!” Yan Tenghua frowned deeply.

Yan Kingdom was often harassed by this small Yun Shuang Kingdom in the northwest, but he didn’t take it to heart. Moreover, the Kingdoms of Yan and Zhao had been in a close relationship. How could the State of Zhao consider collaborating with such a minor kingdom to attack the Yan Kingdom? The reason why they care so much was because the north of Yun Shuang Kingdom is the strongest among the ten kingdoms – the Qin Kingdom, if there is no Qin supporting them, then would Yun Shuang dare to cross the border.

“Whether the information is reliable or not, we must be on guard against the Zhao Kingdom. Quickly adjust the infantry and cavalry of the West city wall to step up the defense in the south. This King will first contact the Qin Kingdom to determine what the King of Qin intends.”

“Your Majesty, I’m afraid there will be insufficient provisions if you deploy troops to the south. I wonder if…”

“This King knows that General Qinglin will return to the front lines soon, so there is no need to be concerned about army supplies.”

“Yes!”

Yan Tenghua’s eyebrows moved slightly as the military-clad individual saluted away, exhibiting a solemn yet deep expression.

The problem of army provisions is not a trivial matter. Although the Yan Kingdom is located in the heart of the Central Plains and the terrain is spectacular, however he is a king who had only recently inherited the throne from his elder brother. How can a monarch who had just acquired the throne from his brother earn the favor of Xu, who controls the nation’s finances at once? That old fox was a difficult person to deal with.

It was only at this time that he remembered someone who had been forgotten for a long time. “Bring over Young Master Ning Xiang for this King.”

“Your Majesty, where do you wish to  receive him?” the maid who served him personally carefully reminded.

Yan Tenghua’s expression shifted slightly, and a trace of redness appeared on his solemn and exhausted countenance. “Ah, no. There is no need to bring him over. Just follow this King to Anning Pavilion.”

(t/n Anning-peaceful, calm)

He would have preferred to return to his chamber before going to  Anning Pavilion if it hadn’t been for the border situation. He wondered if someone’s injuries had healed, and if so, how about finishing the unfinished business? The more he thought about it, the more hesitant he was on his steps, and the excitement that could not be hidden crept on the corner of his mouth.

Simultaneously. Someone looking at the charming, graceful, white-like face was embarrassed.

“Prime Minister Liu, Prime Minister?” Zipei sat alongside the bed and softly pushed Liu Yuzhen’s smooth and delicate body.

** The person’s eyelids are tightly clenched, forming wrinkles, his face is as attractive and exquisite as a devil, and cold sweat was dripping from his brow. Liu Yuzhen seized Zipei’s sleeves with both hands, his grip so strong that he could practically tear them apart. “No, don’t kill my brother, escape swiftly, hurry!” he shouted, unable to rouse from his deep sleep.

“Prime Minister!” Xiao Zipei noticed something was wrong with him and wanted to slap him across the face.

“Pa!” However, it wasn’t a slap, but it still sounded crisply in front of Liu Yuzhen’s face.

The moment Xiao Zipei separated his hands from clapping, Liu Yuzhen, who was very sensitive to attack even in deep sleep, slapped Zipei’s big hand with one stroke, grabbed it, and buckled his throat. He was still in a half awake half asleep state. He slammed Zipei into the * * and locked his throat with two fingers of his left hand. With just a little force, Xiao Zipei’s life can be immediately taken away!

Xiao Zipei was shocked. Someone with such skills must have had bad intentions staying with Emperor Yan. Just as he was about to ask a question, the moment his throat moved slightly, it immediately aroused a great reaction from Liu Yuzhen. Not only did the hand that clasped his throat gain more strength, but those deep black eyes suddenly opened and stared straight at him with a terrifying killing intent.

Liu Yuzhen stared at him for a moment, his consciousness slowly returned to the present, and the image of his brother’s tragic death that had been lingering on his mind for a long time finally dissipated.

Liu Yuzhen only felt in a trance, and when he looked down, he saw  Xiao Zipei’s suffocating face, and quickly let go of his hand. “How is it you?”

Zipei coughed and retreated. He wasn’t sure if he was afraid of him or terrified of tarnishing Emperor Yan’s golden silk bed. When he got out of bed, he quickly took out his sword and pointed to Liu Yuzhen, “Who are you? Prime Minister Liu doesn’t know any martial arts, you can’t be him!”

Yuzhen was still bothered by the frequent scene flashing through his head. He was confused and didn’t have the heart to pay attention to him. “Xiao Pei, don’t make trouble. I want to rest for a while, you go out.”

“You are…”

Yuzhen ran out of patience, and as the phoenix eyes were raised, the person who was as delicate and smooth as a flower revealed a domineering and homicidal aura, “Obey the order!”

Xiao Zipei was the commander-in-chief of the Yan Imperial Army, so he wasn’t startled by the reprimand, but he nonetheless took back his sword. “Your injuries have not yet healed, it’s better not to move around.”

Yuelan stepped in with a copper basin, preparing to wash Yuzhen, before he could even finish his statement. Zipei instructed Yuelan to set down the copper basin and retreat. If he hadn’t remembered Emperor Yan’s reminder “if this person makes trouble, don’t pay attention”, he would definitely not have relinquished.

Yuzhen ignored the two. He closed his eyes wanting to sleep again.

It wasn’t that he put on airs as a prime minister after receiving the good hospitality from Emperor Yan, but that painful image assaulted his head again and again, telling him how cruel and ludicrous everything was. Team A2203, 150 people. He died as well, but was reborn in someone else’s body. However, this does not imply that everyone was as fortunate as him.

His comrades died, and he lived in a body that was played with by a man. Just how long will fate play pranks on him? Human endurance, after all, is finite.

He was exhausted and tired. He had no idea how long it would take him to awaken from this sleep. He simply hoped no one would bother him and that he’d get some good rest.

Liu Yuzhen finally rolled over and faced the wall. His lovely eyes were fixed on the snow-white curtain. His face was expressionless, but that did not imply that his heart was at peace. It had been a while since the time he had drifted in the underworld before he got the chance to be reincarnated, but every time he fell asleep, he remembered the scenario during that time, and he couldn’t help but feel distressed.

Just when he finally got peace and eventually felt better, a loud shout was heard from outside the door again. “Your Majesty, you haven’t seen Ning Xiang for many days. Ning Xiang doesn’t want to wait any longer. If you don’t let Ning Xiang see you today, Ning Xiang won’t go back even if he dies!”

“Young Master Ning Xiang, don’t make a fuss, this is the Emperor’s chamber. How can you be so rude.”

“I don’t care! I want to see the Emperor!”

Noisy, fucking noisy…

The ruckus outside rekindled Yuzhen’s rage, and he sat up with his eyes wide open for a few seconds. Ignoring the ache, he hurried to the door.

Before he could open the door, someone rushed in and hugged him tightly with both hands.

He didn’t imagine Xiao Zipei would be brave enough to hug him. Anyone who comes to hold him will be tossed away as long as he has strength! This is his body’s innate reaction.

The person in his arms was hurled over his shoulder with a loud “Dong,” and his entire body was thrown to some corner of the room. Liu Yuzhen, on the other hand, departed the room as though nothing had happened. “Annoying…”

Liu Yuzhen saw that Yuelan was hiding and peeping silently, so he called out lazily, “Yuelan, I’m hungry, get me something to eat.”

Yuelan rushed up, glanced at the room, and said stealthily. “Yes, Yuelan will prepare now.”

He suddenly remembered one thing. Whenever this figure appeared in his mind, those cruel pictures were always swept away. His eyes narrowed thin, with a treacherous meaning, “Yuelan, where’s that bastard?”

“Are you talking about Emperor Yan? Emperor Yan had something to do and was in the main hall.”

“Get him for me.”

“Ah? You still want to see him?”

Liu Yuzhen clenched his hands and it made crackling sounds. More than just wanting to see him,  he really wants to kill that person now!
