Volume 10 Chapter 511

Chapter 511

Fang Xiaoxuan was able to sit in the position of Grand Secretary, and it goes without saying that he was knowledgeable and knowledgeable. He was not old, at most in his early forties, and looked like a gentle and elegant middle-aged man.

Fang Xiaoxuan was very excited when he finally got the summons from Princess Yin Rou. When he entered the Yonghe Palace and saw Yin Rou, he knelt down and kowtowed, and bowed to greet her. Yin Rou waved her hand slowly and said with a smile: "Master Fang, please stand up."

Fang Xiaoxuan stood up, looked up at Yin Rou, and then lowered his head. He had heard people say before that the princess was so beautiful that she could overwhelm the whole country. Seeing her today, he felt that the rumors were untrue. The princess was not only beautiful, but also had a rare ethereal aura, which made people feel ethereal and unreal, as if the fairy in the painting could disappear at any time.

He was looking at Yin Rou, and Yin Rou was also looking at him.

Yin Rou had not met many people, and was not very good at distinguishing good from evil, but she believed that appearance is determined by the heart. People who are righteous on the outside would not be bad on the inside. In her eyes, Fang Xiaoxuan was such a person.

She smiled calmly and said, "Lord Fang has repeatedly asked to see me in recent days. I wonder what Lord Fang can do for you?"

Fang Xiaoxuan bowed and said, "I want to see the princess because..." At this point, he paused and glanced around. Yin Rou understood, waved to the maids on both sides, and said, "You go out first!"

"I'll take my leave!" The maids around bowed and then filed out of the hall. Yin Rou looked at Xiao Min and Ao Qing who had not left, and said with a smile, "You two go out first!"

"Princess!" Xiao Min was not very familiar with Fang Xiaoxuan, and did not dare to leave him alone with the princess. She looked at Yin Rou with difficulty, hoping that she would let her stay.

The two of them had known each other for so long, how could Yin Rou not understand Xiao Min's worries? She smiled and said softly, "It's okay, go!"

Xiao Min had no choice but to leave the hall, and Ao Qing followed him out, but when she walked past Fang Xiaoxuan, she paused for a moment, looked at him deeply, and then walked over expressionlessly.

As Xiao Min and Ao Qing left, only Yin Rou and Fang Xiaoxuan were left in the hall. At this time, Yin Rou said softly, "Lord Fang, you can say anything now!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Fang Xiaoxuan knelt on the ground again with a plop and said, "Your Highness, I risked my life to advise you that Your Highness must not marry the King of Feng!"

Yin Rou's worries these days are precisely because of this. She likes Tang Yin, which even she cannot deny, but she is also afraid of and distrusts Tang Yin, and always feels that one day, the Haotian Empire will perish in Tang Yin's hands.

At this time, she is also in a dilemma and can't make up her mind about her marriage with Tang Yin.

Hearing Fang Xiaoxuan's words, Yin Rou's heart was shocked, but she didn't show it on her face. She pretended to be calm and asked lightly: "Why do you say that, Lord Fang?"

"The King of Wind despises the emperor and threatens him. His rebellious heart is about to come out. It can be said that the biggest threat to the imperial court is not the other countries, but the King of Wind. Once the princess marries the King of Wind, it will push the imperial court into an abyss of no return. I hope the princess will put the overall situation and the imperial court first!" When speaking, Fang Xiaoxuan's eyes were red and he kowtowed repeatedly.

This was the first time someone had spoken directly to him about Tang Yin's faults and pointed out Tang Yin's rebellious heart. Yin Rou was still struggling with her emotions. She took a deep breath, looked unhappy, and said, "Mr. Fang is a university scholar and an important official of the imperial court. How can he take the rumors that are groundless seriously?"

"Your Highness, this is definitely not groundless. Now the power of the imperial court has fallen into the hands of King Feng. King Feng is fighting everywhere and oppressing the countries under the banner of the emperor, but these are not the emperor's original intentions! The emperor is held hostage by King Feng, and the court of Feng Kingdom has already surpassed the imperial court. If this continues, one day, the court of Feng Kingdom will replace the imperial court, and King Feng... will also replace the emperor!" At this point, Fang Xiaoxuan couldn't help crying and sobbing.

These words moved Yin Rou, and the only hope left in her heart for Tang Yin became weaker and weaker.

What Fang Xiaoxuan said was true. It was true that Tang Yin held the emperor hostage and forced him. It was true that the Feng Kingdom's court was superior to the imperial court. Even many ministers in the imperial court had been bribed by Feng Kingdom, or were directly placed there by Feng Kingdom. What's more, there were rumors in the palace that Tang Yin had done something shameful with Queen Yatong. She didn't believe some of the rumors, but most of them were true and she had witnessed them with her own eyes.

But even if these rumors were true, what could she do? The imperial court had become the fish meat of Feng Kingdom. If she didn't want to be slaughtered, what other way out could she have? Looking at Fang Xiaoxuan kneeling down and crying, Yin Rou felt sad and tears fell from her eyes.

She stood up, walked slowly to Fang Xiaoxuan, stretched out her hand to help him up, and said in a trembling voice: "This palace is called a princess, but in fact I am just a weak woman. Even if I have the heart to revive the imperial court, I have no power to turn the tide. In fact, whether this palace marries the King of Feng or not, it cannot affect the current situation."

Fang Xiaoxuan's spirit perked up when he heard this. He hurriedly wiped the tears from his face and said seriously: "Princess, what you said is wrong!" As he spoke, he looked around subconsciously, then walked to Yin Rou and lowered his voice, Whispering in Yin Rou's ear: "Now the core of the Feng Kingdom is all tied to the Feng King. The Feng King has no heirs. As long as the Feng King dies, there will be no successor to the Feng King's throne. The seemingly powerful Feng Kingdom will fall apart in an instant." , there will be civil strife in the court, and resistance forces in Ning, Mo, and even Feng will also arise. At that time, it will be a good opportunity for the imperial court to come forward to quell the war and regain power. It is also the only opportunity for the imperial court. "

After hearing his words, Yin Rou's body suddenly shook, and her face subconsciously showed a look of horror. What does Fang Xiaoxuan mean by this? Are you going to...are you going to assassinate Tang Yin?

She blamed Tang Yin, and she also blamed Tang Yin. She should not bully the emperor and the imperial court again and again, but she also loved Tang Yin deeply in her heart. Every time Tang Yin went out to fight, her heart seemed to follow suit. Flying away, she never thought that one day Tang Yin would completely disappear from her side.

Seeing Yin Rou's expression changing, Fang Xiaoxuan could understand her thoughts to some extent, but in his opinion, only the princess could save the imperial court, and only the princess could successfully assassinate the Feng King.

He said hurriedly: "Her Royal Highness the Princess is the favorite person of the Feng King, and she is also the person whom the Feng King loves and trusts the most. Only the princess can get close to the Feng King smoothly without arousing the Feng King's suspicion..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yin Rou almost screamed and interrupted: "Stop talking!"

"Your Highness, I have risked my life to remonstrate, and I have already put life and death out of the question. I just hope that the princess can put the overall situation first, abandon personal love for children, and ensure that the country of Haotian Empire will last forever and prosper forever. ." As he spoke, Fang Xiaoxuan knelt down at Yin Rou's feet again, kowtowed to the ground, and did not raise his head for a long time.

Now Yin Rou finally understood his purpose. Fang Xiaoxuan wanted to assassinate Tang Yin himself.

She felt dizzy and staggered back involuntarily. She looked at Fang Xiaoxuan, who was kowtowing. Her mouth was slightly open, but she couldn't say a word.

For the sake of the emperor and the imperial court, Fang Xiaoxuan risked his life and asked him to assassinate Tang Yin. But did he ever think that it would be too cruel to let himself kill the person he loved most? How could she do this?

"Currently, the only one who can save the Imperial Court is Her Highness the Princess. The only one who can protect the Emperor from harm and revive the Imperial Court is Her Royal Highness. I have the courage to ask Her Highness the Princess..."

"Get out!" Yin Rou turned around, walked to the front of the seat, and slowly knelt down and sat down.

"your Highness……"

"I want you to get out!" Yin Rou's little face was so pale that she almost roared at Fang Xiaoxuan.

"Alas!" Fang Xiaoxuan's eyes were ashen and his face was filled with sorrow. He looked up to the sky and sighed, murmuring: "At a time when life and death are at stake, the princess abandons the emperor and the imperial court. The imperial court is over. I, the Haotian Empire...are over..."

As he spoke, he stood up tremblingly, but as soon as he stood up, he collapsed to the ground again. Three times in a row, he barely stood up, pushed open the palace door like a zombie, and walked out.

Seeing Fang Xiaoxuan's retreating back, Yin Rou could no longer bear it, crawled on the table and cried loudly.

Her crying was about the cruelty of fate to her. Why should she fall in love with someone who should least be in love? Her crying was also about the injustice. Why should the fate of the entire empire rest on her alone? She has no one to share her burden.

After Fang Xiaoxuan left, Xiao Min and Ao Qing also entered the main hall. When they saw Yin Rou crying at the desk, the two women were stunned for a moment. Then, Xiao Min became furious and asked: "But Fang Xiaoxuan was rude to Her Royal Highness the Princess? I Go and capture that thief now!" As he spoke, Xiao Min turned around and went out to chase Fang Xiaoxuan.

Yin Rou stopped crying, raised her head hurriedly, called Xiao Min, shook her head and said, "Master Fang was not rude to me."

"Then why is the princess crying?" Xiao Min looked at Yin Rou blankly, with a look of confusion on his face.

Yin Rou took out her handkerchief and wiped away the tears on her face. After a long pause, she slowly shook her head and said, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I heard Master Fang mention a tragic incident just now, which made me feel something."

She didn't dare to tell the truth. Although she trusted Xiao Min, Ao Qing on the side was Tang Yin's subordinate. If she told the truth, Fang Xiaoxuan would probably not be able to get out of the palace gate, and his head would be in a different place. After all, the palace Inside and outside, they are all people from the Feng Kingdom.
