Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1211 Answer
"Oh……"

Yuwen Qian's eyes flickered again.

Yu Mingyue didn't know why he suddenly asked her this, but after asking the answer, Yuwen Qian didn't say much, just walked past her silently, took a piece of incense from the other side, and threw it into the incense burner. After a while, a puff of green smoke came out of the furnace again, lingering in front of his eyes.

In the mist, those clear eyes seemed a little empty.

Yu Mingyue felt a little uneasy for some reason, but she heard Yu Wenqian say, "So, what kind of books do you like to read? Do those books give you answers?"

"Answer?"

These two words made her even more confused.

What answer does she want?
She didn't like reading those boring history books, not even serious books. They said that books can bring you wealth, but that was just some toxic chicken soup, not as exciting as refreshing novels. She didn't think there was anything wrong with it, as everyone around her was like that. But now Yuwen Qian's question made her a little confused, and even for the first time, she felt ashamed to speak up.

She whispered, "Just read and have fun. What answers do you need?"

"...!"

Hearing this, Yuwen Qian slightly widened his eyes, and his originally empty pupils were filled with astonishment. After a moment, the astonishment gradually turned into an emotion that seemed like pity.

He looked at Yu Mingyue quietly, was silent for a long time, and then let out a long sigh.

Yu Mingyue bit her lower lip: "What's wrong?"

Yuwen Qian did not answer her, but turned and walked out. Bingbing was standing in the yard waiting outside. Although she was the personal maid of the Crown Princess and her clothes were gorgeous and thick, she was still shivering in the cold wind at this late hour. When she saw the two of them coming out, she immediately came forward to pay her respects. Yuwen Qian waved his hand and said as he walked, "Have they all gone home now?"

He cut off the topic right there as if with a single blow of a knife.

Yu Mingyue had unspeakable doubts in her heart, but subconsciously did not want to ask, so she just followed and said: "Those officials have left. But they are all very worried."

"..."

"The Qin King is gaining momentum. If we don't find a way to suppress their arrogance, it's inevitable that someone in the court will have dissenting thoughts."

"..."

"What if even my father is shaken..."

Yuwen Yuan shook his head, thinking back to everything that happened in the court today. In fact, he said very little, and he was not even very angry. Instead, Yuwen Yuan was obviously irritated. Whether it was Yuwen Ye's previous act of opening the treasury in Luoyang, or his move of retreating to advance and taking the opportunity to expand the Twelve Guards to expand his own strength, they were undoubtedly challenging the emperor's authority, and they were putting the emperor in a difficult position. That was why Yuwen Yuan had such an attitude when he adjourned the court.

He said, "It doesn't matter. There's still a knife stuck in the body of the second brother."

"a knife?"

"Whoever it is, holding that knife, even if it's not fatal, can restrain him."

"Oh?"

Yu Mingyue was a little confused. She tried her best to recall what weaknesses Yuwen Ye had in the history she knew. But unfortunately, since some things changed because of her appearance, some of the things she knew did not happen because of these changes, or other situations were formed. This made her feel very difficult.

Ever since she had the experience of being resurrected, she believed that she was special and different from everyone else in this world. So when facing many people here, especially Shang Ruyi, she felt the most superior, just like the protagonists with golden fingers in those cool novels she had read. But when she had to face the completely unknown future, the difficulty and helplessness she felt were no different from when she faced her ordinary and trivial life in the past.

She is still ordinary after all.

However, these things seemed to be under Yuwen Qian's control, so she could only ask, "What knife?" Yuwen Qian stopped and looked at her. There seemed to be a hint of the pity that had just appeared in his eyes. Yu Mingyue felt very unhappy when she was looked at, but she couldn't say anything.

At this moment, a cold voice with a mocking smile came from the night ahead -

"Of course it's the one I brought back."

Upon hearing the voice, Yu Mingyue immediately put away her uneasiness and displeasure, raised her head, and saw Yuwen Cheng walking slowly towards her. Maybe it was because of the darkness of the night, but there was only one servant holding a lamp beside him. The faint light illuminated his handsome yet extremely sharp face from bottom to top, revealing an indescribable hostility in the night.

Yuwen Qian asked: "You didn't leave?"

Yuwen Cheng immediately smiled and said, "Brother, am I the same as the others? I just arrived."

"Oh, where have you been?"

"In the barracks, of course."

As he spoke, he had already walked in front of Yuwen Qian. He didn't even look at Yu Mingyue, but bowed to Yuwen Qian and said, "Royal brother, once these hundreds of thousands of people entered Chang'an, the tens of thousands of defenders were no match for them. Second brother was even more generous in the army today. He redeployed all the hundreds of thousands of troops. Each guard has 8,000 to 10,000 people. Especially the Yulin Guard, which has more than 20,000 people. The left and right commanders are Shentu Tai and Shen Wuzheng respectively. The left and right Xiaowei were all squeezed out of the city, like watchdogs."

"..."

"I saw that your father-in-law was almost sick with anger, and Su Changjing almost had a fight with Shen Tutai and the others."

"..."

"Your Highness, my second brother is already the governor of Yongzhou, and now he commands the Twelve Guards. The entire Chang'an belongs to him. If he wants to do something to us in the future - let alone you and me, it will be a question whether my father can resist."

Upon hearing this, Yuwen Qian's face darkened: "Don't talk nonsense."

At the same time, Yu Mingyue frowned upon hearing this: "What the King of Qi means is..."

Yuwen Cheng had no intention of keeping silent. When he heard her question, he turned around and said to her with a smile, "What I mean is, whoever has a knife in his hand can become the king. There are many precedents of this throughout the dynasties."

"..."

"Brother, if you really let the second brother continue to be so arrogant, then who will care about your prestige as the crown prince?"

"..."

Yuwen Qian didn't say anything, but his brows gradually furrowed.

Yu Mingyue said: "What the King of Qi said makes sense."

After saying that, she thought of something and asked, "By the way, you just said that Yuwen Ye had a knife stuck in his body, and it was brought back by the King of Qi. Are you talking about Xiao Yuansui?"

"Ah."

"What can he do?"

"..."

Yuwen Qian did not answer her, but looked at Yuwen Cheng. The latter had already understood what he meant and smiled slightly: "There are so many things he can do."
