Tragic death in the previous life: After rebirth, the sickly prince pampers her every night

The sword cut the delicate skin on her neck. If she had used more force, Yang Susu's slender and fair neck would have been broken.

"I won't allow you to save him."

The man in blue thrust the sword into Yang Susu's neck a little further, his voice full of joking: "He deserves death just like you do. Today, both of you must die."

Yang Susu's face showed a trace of anger: "The Lan family is a hermit family that has been in seclusion for thousands of years, but time has been too long. I don't know if the leaves have rotted or the roots have decayed. This person has cultivated so much that he doesn't even look like a human anymore."

If Lan Yi's sword went a little deeper, Wang You thought, she would definitely perish along with Lan Yi to save the young lady.

Yang Susu did not look back at Lan Yi, but she could naturally imagine Lan Yi's arrogant and annoying face at that moment.

Emperor Wen Zhao, who ordered Jinxiu to send the queen back to the palace, watched silently for a long time before speaking solemnly: "Miss Lan, I specially prepared such a feast for you today to express my welcome to the Lan family. However, has Miss Lan passed the test?

Are you going to kill our Eastern Zhou's King Li and my son?"

Lan Yi glanced at Emperor Wen Zhao calmly and said, "The Emperor of Dong Zhou lacks forethought. Our Lan family only cares about filial piety and is dedicated to providing assistance to our people.

If you can't listen to us and submit to our Lan family, why should we help you?"

She licked her lips and continued, "It's not like our Lan family has to be in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

For example, Northern Yan is currently at war with Eastern Zhou.

Is this prince important?

Or is the future of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty more important?

I think the Emperor of Dong Zhou should be able to tell the difference, right?"

Lan Yi seemed to hold the lifeblood of Emperor Wen Zhao in her hands, believing that Emperor Wen Zhao would not dare to disobey her.

From her observations during these days in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the emperor of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, although diligent in government affairs, was obsessed with profit and was very cowardly. Despite this, he was very ambitious.

Moreover, the words of Lan Yi were also naked threats.

If Emperor Wen Zhao disobeyed her wishes, she would not help the Eastern Zhou, but would help Northern Yan fight against the Eastern Zhou.

Emperor Wen Zhao clenched his fists and was speechless for a moment.

If the Lan family goes to help Bei Yan, then the Eastern Zhou Dynasty will be in danger.

Emperor Wen Zhao seemed to have a block in his throat, and he did not say a word. He was also struggling internally.

Everyone has been acting as a transparent person.

Only Concubine Wan, who had not participated in the dispute, said respectfully to Emperor Wen Zhao: "Your Majesty, are you willing to let Dong Zhou become a prisoner of the Lan family?"

Master Zhuang, who was standing below, stroked his graying beard and stood up. "Your Majesty, although the Lan family is a secluded family, they are a bit too much. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty is the Eastern Zhou Dynasty of your Majesty, not the Eastern Zhou Dynasty of the Lan family."

Once there is a first time, there will be a second time. Chen Yanhe's father, the Minister of Rites, also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, it is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace. Your Majesty, please think twice."

Then Lord Yang Shishu also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think what the Grand Master and Lord Chen said is right. The Eastern Zhou Dynasty was defended by our ancestors with blood and sweat. How can it fall into the hands of others in your Majesty's hands?"

Soon after, many loyal officials came forward to express their protest against the Lan family's arrogance.

Prime Minister Zhou smiled coldly and said to Emperor Wen Zhao: "Your Majesty, I think it would be a blessing for the Eastern Zhou Dynasty if we could get the help of the Lan family.

All the Lan Family wants is our loyalty. If we can show our loyalty, and the Lan Family can help the Emperor unify the country, then why not?"
