Liuchi composed himself: "There are worms in my body. As long as the whistle is blown, the worms in my body will be activated."
I stared at the whistle in my hand with wide eyes in shock: "What?"
After Liuchi regained his composure, he gave me a comforting smile: "Princess, don't panic, this poison has been planted in my body a long time ago, and it will not harm my health."
I was dubious: "Are you serious?"
He nodded.
"But you look so miserable..."
"Tell the princess now that you will be whistled when nothing happens. Otherwise, I will suffer."
Although Liu Chi is gentle and elegant, he rarely says such funny words, and he usually adopts a dry humor line.
I laughed at what he said, and quickly put the whistle carefully away, but took it out after a while. This is Xia Yan's body, I have to hide it in another place.
Just when I was thinking about where to hide the whistle, footsteps suddenly came from outside, and Liuchi's figure flashed and quickly disappeared from my eyes.
Liu Chi left as quietly as when he came, not even alerting the secret guards lying in wait around him.
I quickly sat back to my original position and waited for someone to come.
Many people came, Tong, the commander of the secret guard. He looked happy and held a secret letter in his hand: "Your Majesty, there is good news."
"What good news."
"See for yourself."
He handed over the secret letter and I flipped through it. My eyes were glued to the paper like a magnet and I couldn't move an inch away.
When I closed it, my mood was like a surging tide.
This secret letter was sent by the Right Prime Minister of the Yan State. He was Xia Yan's spy in the Yan State. He said that Yan Xiaoqing had actually left the Yan State for two months. There was no one in the court now, only the Zuo Prime Minister was with him.
Taking control of the imperial court, Prime Minister You said in the letter that if we send troops to attack Yan State at this time, we will definitely win.
"Is this news reliable?" I asked calmly.
"That's what Prime Minister Right said. We need to explore the details further. If Yan Xiaoqing is really not in the Yan Kingdom, then we can directly send troops to beat him to pieces." Duotong showed a bloodthirsty expression. It seemed that he had already
Yan Xiaoqing looked unhappy.
"But what if this is fake?"
Duotong looked at me in astonishment, lowered her shoulders for a while and said, "If it's fake, then it's Yan Xiaoqing's bait to lure us in."
"This matter must not be made public. You can go down."
Duotong stepped back doubtfully. After he left, Liuchi fell in front of me like a ghost.
He must have heard the conversation with Duotong just now.
"Liu Chi, what do you think?" I waved the secret letter in my hand towards him.
Liu Chi narrowed his eyes and put on an inscrutable expression: "Yan Xiaoqing is willing to take the risk and come to Xia Kingdom, it must be for the Dzi Bead."
I also guessed this. The baby was going to be born soon, so he naturally wanted to come and get it in person, but I didn't expect him to be so impatient.
"Princess, have you ever thought about what will happen if Yan Xiaoqing becomes immortal?"
Meeting Liu Chi's questioning eyes, I was startled.
That is definitely not a good thing. It is a great disadvantage for Xia Yan. Xia Yan can fight against Yan Xiaoqing simply because everyone is on the same starting line. But once Yan Xiaoqing has immortality, Xia Yan may not be able to win even if he has three heads and six arms.
"Then what do you think we should do? You can't let me go back on my word."
"Of course not. If the princess thinks about it clearly, Liu Chi has a way. I don't know if it will work."
