Chapter 501
While the Deputy General was reporting in the meeting hall, others were not allowed to interrupt. But even though the private audience was not yet over, someone announced from outside the door, âYour Highness, a messenger is here.â
Xie Xuanchen asked, âWho is it?â
âA messenger sent by Ye Luyan.âFiNd updates on
When Xie Xuanchen heard that it was Ye Luyan, he knocked on the table and suddenly smiled, âItâs him. Bring him in.â
As soon as the Deputy General heard this, he immediately stepped aside and let out a long sigh of relief. The scapegoat came to the door at the right time.
The messenger did not expect that just a few days ago, they were going to get their hands on the Ye Dynasty before being in the same situation as them in the blink of an eye. The messengerâs face was ashen, but after a while, he said, âI will relay the words of Prince An to the 8th Prince. However, I must see King Dongdan to make sure that he is really here.â
Xie Xuanchen laughed when he heard this as his eyes suddenly became sharp, âI am the one giving you my conditions, so you have no right to bargain. Donât worry though, I will send Ye Lujiâs finger to Empress Dowager Xiao in two days. She will tell you if itâs really him or not.â
When the messenger heard this, his expression changed and he said angrily, âYour Emperor is still in our hands. Arenât you afraid that the 8th Prince will kill your Emperor if you behave this arrogantly?â
âThen just kill him,â Xie Xuanchenâs face was pale. With a careless smile on his lips, the anger in his eyes was so vivid, âHe is my uncle. If you kill him, Iâd even want to thank you.â
The messenger was dumbfounded, never expecting that Xie Xuanchen would dare to say such a thing. The messengerâs confidence was already half gone, but he still held on to the table and said, âWhat about your capital? I heard that it is very prosperous and has a population of one million. Donât you care about the Emperor or the capital at all?â
