Transmigrated into a goddess from another world, and criticized the King of Yan for loving her like

Gao Qinglie narrowed his eyes slightly, secretly surprised in his heart, but his face remained expressionless.

He never expected that Yan Xuanye would make such a request for a woman who had been married to someone else.

Gao Qinglie: "Su Qingci is already married and is now a married woman. She is also the daughter of an important official of our dynasty and the wife of a loyal official."

"I'm afraid this... is a little inappropriate."

Gao Qinglie looked at Yan Xuanye and thought to himself that this man was extremely bold.

He didn't even think about whether Lu Huan would agree to this, and he actually dared to ask for Su Qingci so bluntly.

Yan Xuanye: "Using a woman to calm the situation is probably the wisest move for your country."

"I originally thought that this move was also for Your Majesty's consideration... I never expected..."

Gao Qinglie chuckled: "There are countless beautiful women in Nanchang."

"If the Prince of Yan is interested in this, I can send people to carefully select seventeen or eighteen stunning beauties for you. Their looks will definitely be much better than Su Qingci's."

"I wonder what the prince thinks?" he asked.

What a joke, Yan Xuanye might not know what kind of person Lu Huan is, but he, Gao Qinglie, has some basic knowledge about him.

This person is vindictive.

In the past, Gao Jiarong caused Lu Huan's biological mother to die due to dystocia when giving birth to her second son.

Lu Huan was still young at that time and didn't understand the inside story.

However, as he grew older, Gao Qinglie deliberately designed to let him know about this past event.

But who would have thought that although Lu Huan did not reveal anything on the surface, he was playing dirty tricks behind the scenes.

He ordered people to secretly replace Gao Jiarong's pregnancy medicine with a medicine that would prevent her from getting pregnant forever.

Even if she gets pregnant by chance, the baby will definitely die in the womb, and no matter how you investigate, there will be no way to find the cause!

But the idiot Gao Jiarong didn't know it at all. He just kept drinking for many years as if nothing had happened.

At that time, he and Lu Huan both thought it was because of the medicine.

Later I found out that Lu Guang had never touched Gao Jiarong, so Gao Jiarong had never been pregnant for all these years.

But Gao Qingrong continued to take the medicine year after year, thinking that maybe one day Lu Guang would come to his senses and fall in love with her, and she would become pregnant with their child.

She simply thought that this was just an ordinary medicine that helped to regulate the body and promote conception, and there was nothing unusual about it.

In addition, Gao Jiarong had 100% trust in the imperial physician assigned by Gao Qinglie and never had any doubts. She always felt at ease using him.

Little did she know that it was Gao Qinglie who revealed to Lu Huan that she had caused Lu Huan's mother to die during childbirth.

Gao Jiarong, this stupid man, didn't even think deeply about the interests involved.

How could an emperor easily marry his own sister to a general who holds military power!

If they had a son, he would be of royal blood.

In addition, Lu Guang had a large number of troops under his command, and most of this vast land was conquered by him. He had a very high prestige in the army, and everyone was convinced of him.

As the king of a country, how could he be at ease letting his own sister marry this famous general and give birth to a healthy offspring?

After all, if Lu Guang had any ulterior motives and attempted to usurp the throne, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, he could not completely deprive Lu Guang of his power.

The reason is simple, because most of the generals in the army are Lu Guang's confidants, they follow his lead and obey his orders and dispatches only.

If he forcibly took back the military power and angered Lu Guang, he, as the emperor, would suffer.

If that were all, I could still accept it.

But what is even more difficult is that Gao Qinglie gradually realized that Lu Huan seemed to have secretly trained an army, in addition to a team of well-trained and well-equipped secret guards.

There had been rumors before that Lu Huan secretly ordered the construction of an underground passage after suppressing the rebellion.

He seemed to be rebelling.

Gao Qinglie had secretly sent people to investigate many times, but he was never able to find any clues about the tunnel, not even the location of the entrance.

Faced with such a situation, Gao Qinglie had to put the matter aside for the time being, wait for the opportunity and not act rashly.

However, Gao Qinglie knew in his heart that Lu Huan harbored resentment towards their Gao family only because of the cause of his mother's death.

Lu Huan is a sinister and cunning person. It is difficult to detect any abnormality from his appearance because he will not easily show his joy, anger, sorrow or happiness in front of others.

But after that, he will keep that hatred firmly in his heart.

Lu Huan was not in a hurry. He was like a lion lurking in the darkness, quietly waiting for the best opportunity.

Perhaps when people are off guard, he will suddenly leap up and bite the enemy's neck tightly.

That fierce attack would be as ferocious as that of a wild beast, tearing the tendons, bones, blood and flesh together until the throat is broken and the person is killed.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, Gao Qinglie really didn't want to make an enemy of Lu Huan, nor did he want to offend him.

Although Lu Huan and Lu Guang have always had a lot of grudges over the years, they are still father and son with blood thicker than water.

Lu Guang holds the military power, while Lu Huan secretly builds secret passages and trains soldiers and secret guards.

Neither this father nor his son is easy to deal with.

If the two of them join forces, the city will be plunged into civil strife before Yan Xuanye sends troops to attack it.

Therefore, Gao Qinglie would rather reject Yan Xuanye's request today than offend Lu Huan.

The Gao family brother and sister, the younger sister killed Lu Huan's mother. If he, as the emperor, took his wife and gave her to Yan Xuanye, that would be a real slap in Lu Huan's face and would create complete hatred with him!

I'm afraid he won't be able to sit on the throne for long.

Gao Qinglie thought that the conditions he proposed were good. Since Yan Xuanye only wanted beautiful women, wouldn't it be better if he gave him a dozen more beauties?

Unexpectedly, Yan Xuanye bluntly rejected his suggestion.

"Your Majesty, I have just said that what I want is General Hongyi's wife, Su Qingci."

"Xiao Wang doesn't want other women, nor is he interested in them."

Gao Qinglie was also annoyed. Why did these two have to include Su Qingci?

The Crown Prince had told him before that he wanted to take Su Qingci, the daughter of Susongqi, as his concubine.

Lu Huan also put a lot of thought into marrying her, and now Yan Xuanye, who had just arrived in the capital not long ago, actually fell in love with Su Qingci.

What kind of magic power does this woman have?

"That may disappoint the Prince of Yan. I really cannot make the decision on this matter."

Although he was the king of a country, at this moment, he had to swallow his pride and admit his difficulties.

"General Hongyi is a loyal minister of the country. He helped Nanchang State to suppress the rebellion. His father was a pillar of the court and had made great military achievements."

"I...cannot make another mistake just to make up for one mistake."

Gao Qinglie sighed falsely and said in an awkward tone, "Please understand my difficulties, Prince Yan."

"If the Prince of Yan can understand, then the dozen beauties I just mentioned can still be treated as usual..."

Yan Xuanye bowed and interrupted Gao Qinglie's words, "Then I won't embarrass Your Majesty, and let this matter drop."

Where can he not find beautiful women? As long as he wants them, people will come to him one after another.

Yesterday he gave Lu Huan six beautiful dancers, but Lu Huan refused them.

His actions yesterday rebounded so quickly and the retribution came back upon him.

Yan Xuanye only now knew what Lu Huan was thinking and feeling last night.

Now, he could understand the frustration that Lu Huan felt at that time.

It's really... kind of funny to feel the same way as my love rival.

Yan Xuanye flicked his sleeves and turned to leave, but there was a strong sense of hostility on his body that could not be shaken off.

Shi Zhuo was waiting outside the palace for Yan Xuanye to come out. Seeing him approaching the palace gate, Shi Zhuo hurried to greet him.

"Your Highness, how is it? Has the Emperor agreed?"

Yan Xuanye spoke coldly, with a bad expression, "The dog emperor will not agree."

Shi Zhuo was a little discouraged: "Ah?"

"Your Highness has always wanted something but has not obtained it."

"How dare the dog emperor refuse to give it to me? He is so ungrateful!"

Shi Zhuo looked at Yan Xuanye's gloomy face and lowered his voice, "Your Highness, what are you going to do?"

Yan Xuanye glanced at him coldly, patted his shoulder earnestly, and said, "Shi Zhuo, if you want something, you have to fight for it yourself."

"They refused to give it to me, so I tried to snatch it away."
