"We have arranged to enter the hotel." Ye Zhiyu replied: "Do you want to see him tomorrow? I will make arrangements."
Hearing this, Nan Yanxi pondered for a while: "Okay, let's meet tomorrow, but..."
He smiled deeply: "Let's go meet the young master first?"
"good."
Ye Zhiyu agreed, and the two of them walked out of the imperial study room one after the other.
Since the war in the South China Sea was initially decided, not only was everything waiting to be done, but it was also affected to some extent.
Coupled with the reforms carried out by Nan Yanxi and others to streamline personnel and downsize the establishment, there were quite a few spare rooms in the palace.
After that guy was personally escorted back by Qiu Min and the Royal Forest Army, he was arranged to live in an empty courtyard.
Nan Yanxi was neither interrogated nor imprisoned, and was even served with delicious food and drinks.
As long as you don't leave the yard, other requirements can be met as much as possible.
That boy was sensible enough to eat and drink as he should in the yard without making any noise or making a fuss.
The only request I made was that I wanted to listen to Nanhai opera with local characteristics.
Nan Yanxi is naturally satisfied with everything. As long as there is no trouble, everything else is easy to talk about.
Of course, being so polite to him was not because he was afraid of Dayan, but because he followed Ye Zhiyu's advice.
After all, in his strategic plan, it is not the right time to start a war with Dayan.
Nan Yanxi also needs Dayan to contain Daxia to a certain extent in the future.
Let Daxia always be on guard against his "friendly" neighbor who is not weaker than himself, and never be able to make a desperate move against his expeditionary force.
Especially from the observation in the first few days, I felt that the boy did not seem to be an arrogant and domineering person, so Nan Yanxi just went along with the situation and did not make it difficult for him.
In recent days, state affairs have been busy, so Nan Yanxi just listened to the information about this boy.
I still don’t know exactly what he looks like or what his personality is.
They only knew that his surname was Lin and what his name was. The servants didn't bother to ask, and he didn't tell them either.
Since we have to talk to the Dayan envoy tomorrow, we have to meet him today.
To put it bluntly, maybe it can be sold at a good price tomorrow.
The two refused to be followed by their entourage, one after the other, and soon arrived at the place of detention.
A man in uniform walked up to the dressed man in small steps, bowed his hands and saluted: "Your Highness, long time no see!"
"Oh? Daxia Jiang?" Nan Yanxi was stunned when she heard the voice, and after looking carefully, she found that it was Jiang Yingxue.
At this time, he was dressed as a typical middle-level officer of the Tiger Guard.
He wears white-lined silver armor, a silver helmet with white tassels floating on it, and the long sword in his hand is also decorated with silver and white tassels. Coupled with his silver hair, he still looks like a general.
The look in his eyes was full of energy, and the previous decadence had long gone.
After all, from a landowner's nurse to a mid-level officer in the Imperial Forbidden Army, it would be no exaggeration to say that he has soared into the sky.
"Brother Jiang is... transferred to the Tiger Guard?"
"Yes, Your Highness." Jiang Yingxue smiled happily: "The Tiger Guard is reorganizing its personnel and there is a shortage of officers."
"The prince transferred me here."
Then he asked: "Your Highness, are you... here for interrogation?"
"Absolutely..." Nan Yanxi smiled and nodded: "I just came to have a chat with him."
"I've been busy lately and haven't been able to take care of it. I should come and see you."
Jiang Yingxue hurriedly agreed: "Okay... That gentleman just finished listening to a big show and asked for a banquet and a jar of good wine."
"You're probably enjoying yourself this time. I'll accompany you in."
Hearing this, Nan Yanxi nodded, and the three of them walked slowly towards the courtyard one after the other.
Jiang Yingxue led the way, turned a few corners, and arrived at the entrance of the main hall.
He whispered: "Your Highness, that gentleman is inside. The door is closed in the middle of the day. I'm afraid he might be asleep."
"Subordinate, go and wake him up."
Just as he was talking, a "pop" sound suddenly came from the hall behind him.
It was a sound similar to the sound of porcelain bowls and wine glasses falling to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of drama came from the room.
The three of them looked at each other doubtfully, and listened carefully. It seemed like something... another hero after eighteen years or something like that.
Then there was the sound of chairs and stools falling to the ground.
Jiang Yingxue yelled something bad, flew forward and kicked the door open.
Nan Yanxi followed closely behind, and the three of them looked inside the house and saw a piece of white silk hanging from the beam.
A young man in white with good looks and a quiet temperament was hanging on it, with a ferocious expression and very painful expression.
Jiang Yingxue was instantly panicked. She drew out her sword and was about to step forward to rescue him, but was stopped by Nan Yanxi with her hand.
"Your Highness...you?"
"No hurry, no rush..." Nan Yanxi really didn't care, so she moved a stool and sat down.
Erlang raised his legs and said slowly: "This must have been hung just now...Brother Jiang, do you know how to persuade someone who hangs himself?"
"Ah? How to persuade him?" Jiang Yingxue was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously asked.
Nan Yanxi chuckled, raised her head and stared into the man's eyes, and said loudly on purpose: "This is the person who advised you to hang yourself."
"You can't persuade him from the beginning. In that case, the more you persuade him, the more energetic he will become."
"You have to help him, pass him the rope, hand him the stool, and help him hang up."
After saying that, he picked up a pot of tea on the table and took a sip from the spout: "Wait until he stretches out his tongue."
"I'm about to die, but if you untie him again..."
"At that time, if you ask him again, will he hang himself? He will definitely shake his head."
After hearing this, Jiang Yingxue nodded in understanding, which made Ye Zhiyu amused.
After just a few breaths, the young man began to roll his eyes and trembled feebly.
Nan Yanxi saw that it was almost done and winked at Jiang Yingxue.
Jiang Yingxue understood and stepped forward to untie it.
"Cough...cough...cough..." As soon as the man landed, he started coughing violently.
He collapsed weakly on the ground, his face turned red from holding back.
Jiang Yingxue gave him a pat on the back, poured a bowl of tea and handed it to him.
After a long time, the man managed to return to normal and glanced at Nan Yanxi with a slight resentment.
He said hoarsely: "Why did you save me? How can a defeated general have any dignity in this world?"
"I drank like crazy for several days, listened to music and watched the show, and I have no regrets. You'd better stop using me to blackmail the Yan imperial court."
Seeing his embarrassed look and hearing these simple words, Nan Yanxi only found it funny.
He asked back: "Blackmail? We haven't contacted Dayan yet, so where is the threat?"
"Besides, it's you who are invading us. Do you need us to threaten you?"
"Uh..." As soon as these words came out, the man was left speechless.
After being stunned for a long time, he finally said in confusion: "Then why do you treat me like this?"
"Are you prepared to threaten me by treating you like this?" Nan Yanxi deliberately said sadly: "I just want to be on good terms with you."
"I, Nanhai, and you, Dayan, have been neighbors for generations. By treating you like this, I hope to express goodwill to your emperor."
"After all...you have a special status..."
"Oh...that's right."
The young man scratched his head apologetically: "It turns out that I... uh... I... it turns out that I use the heart of a villain to judge the heart of a gentleman."
After saying that, he was stunned for a while, and then he suddenly came to his senses and said, "Oh, isn't that right? You... know my identity?"
"From the moment I came in until now, I have never revealed a word. The guards fled desperately, and the ordinary soldiers don't know my true identity."
"What's so difficult about that? I naturally know it!" Nan Yanxi smiled proudly: "Think about it, who can have such a noble status? Let the Royal Forest Army and the Golden Guards protect you."
But I was secretly amused. This guy was so easy to fool, and he leaked the flaw in just two sentences.
Although he is still unsure of his specific identity, Nan Yanxi has probably guessed it.
Then he continued to lie: "Of course, I was just guessing before, but... someone is coming to your family!"
With that said, he handed over the scroll in his hand and said with a smile: "Look, is this the big seal of your family?"
"Everyone has told me to treat you well and try to take you back as soon as possible."
After saying that, he slowly came to him, reached out and patted his shoulder: "Brother, we are all destined to be together."
"Brother, I believe you know how I treat you. If you hide it, you won't be an open-minded person!"
"After all...I already know this."
After saying the deceptive words, Nan Yanxi slowly walked to the door.
With one hand behind his back and the other hand sipping a cup of tea, he looked straight out of the room, looking very calm and calm.
But in fact, Nan Yanxi was panicking inside at this time.
The person who sent the envoy didn't mention anything in the letter, probably because he wanted to conceal his true identity.
But the words about being kind to the surrendered soldiers and other related personnel made Nan Yanxi suspicious.
Kindness is kindness, what does it mean to add this sentence? Isn’t this unnecessary?
Nan Yanxi boldly estimated that this person must have an unusually high status, so he did not dare to be too careless when he came.
This superfluous sentence was naturally added to ensure his safety to the greatest extent.
So what is the identity of the envoy that would put him at risk of revealing his true identity, and yet his safety must be ensured?
Nan Yanxi has been thinking about it since she received the letter.
Since his arrest until now, this young man has only said his surname is Lin, but has never revealed his true identity.
The surname Lin is the royal surname of the Yan Kingdom. At first, everyone thought that this person should be a relative of the emperor.
After all, the royal family is a big family, and there are many young people named Lin.
But today, this sentence that is superfluous is combined with various other things.
Nan Yanxi felt that this young man was probably a direct relative of the emperor, and it was very possible that he was the prince's son or grandson.
Only then did he spend a lot of time and tests to find out his true identity.
After all, this guy's identity directly affects his bargaining chip in doing business with Dayan.
You might be able to make a fortune.
After being silent for a while, the young man finally sighed: "Hey... I knew I couldn't hide it."
"Since you already know it, I won't hide it anymore. Yes, I am the great grandson of Dayan, Lin Shenqing!"
"Pfft..." Nan Yanxi took a sip of tea and spit it out.
My heart was like a turbulent wave, and I was extremely shocked. This person... turned out to be the grandson of the Yan Kingdom.
Nan Yanxi had thought about many possibilities before. The most likely prince or prince was the child of the third prince of the Yan Kingdom.
Because the third prince has always been guarding the southern border of the Yan Kingdom, his troops are also responsible for this battle.
But I never expected that this person turned out to be the great grandson Lin Shenqing.
Nan Yanxi has naturally heard of his name, or in other words, no one in the world knows his name.
It's not that he is so heroic, but that his status is quite noble.
Lin Wenyuan, the current emperor of Yan State, was also a wise emperor. He made his eldest son Lin Zhenwei the crown prince.
Lin Zhenwei was very virtuous and was deeply loved by the emperor. He discussed almost all state affairs with him.
He has great power. He is known as the most powerful prince in the world. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the deputy emperor.
At that time, Dayan was also called the Shuanglong Ruler, and its national power was growing rapidly, catching up with Daxia.
But later, God was not kind to him, and Prince Lin Zhenwei died of a serious illness, leaving Lin Wenyuan with a gray head overnight.
After that, Aiwujiwu made his eldest son Lin Shenqing his grandson, intending to pass the throne to him a hundred years later.
Making such a decision at that time shocked the world and became a topic of after-dinner talk in surrounding countries.
Because Lin Wen is far more than just Lin Zhenwei's son, there are seven or eight princes in total.
The younger Seventh and Eighth Princes are about the same age as Lin Shenqing.
The more powerful second and third princes were once speculated by outsiders to be the next prince.
Unexpectedly, Lin Wenyuan skipped them and made his grandson Lin Shenqing his grandson.
When I first told you about this, Nan Yanxi was so shocked that her jaw almost dropped.
