This fox fairy is too inhuman

Chapter 228 Go and persuade him!

After bidding farewell to Shi Anqi, Ren Yidao sat on the carriage returning to his residence, thinking quietly.

"Although Shi Anqi repeatedly declined and said he didn't know anything, his reaction was enough to explain the problem."

He just said he didn't know and couldn't say anything.

But he never denied that what I said was wrong.

"As expected of the old cunning man in the palace, he knows how to get himself out of trouble."

Thinking of Shi Anqi, the bloody man who returned from Jiangnan last time after killing people, and thinking about the details he saw at that time, Ren Yidao shook his head slightly.

"Lao Shi, I'm afraid he has already decided to give up."

He was supposed to be a ruthless knife in the emperor's hand, but at some point he developed his own emotions.

Although the knife has not become sharp, it has the possibility of backlash.

Ren Yidao believed that Li Long would not have any overreaction to Shi Anqi in the short term because of their years of friendship.

He will still be treated as the most trusted person and will still be assigned the most difficult tasks to him.

This is trust in powerful ministers and tolerance of old brothers.

But this tolerance has a limit, and you don’t know when it will be exhausted.

Ren Yidao knew this, and Li Long and Shi Anqi, the emperor and his ministers, were probably feeling the same as Ming Jing.

In this regard, Ren Yidao didn't have to worry about the two of them.

The answer was already there when Shi Anqi resisted the decree for the first time and Li Long didn't kill him with a single sword.

As for how it will end in the end, Ren Yidao is still a little curious.

"I hope that Shi Anqi will be able to put on a big show and make everyone happy."

In the past, Shi Anqi would have just handed over his military power and waited for his fate.

But now, it's hard to say.

Nowadays, Shi Anqi has long since given up and put down many of his previous worries.

"Speaking of which, his expression just now was very strange."

Halfway through the drink, Shi Anqi's expression changed drastically for some reason, and he suddenly sat on the other side and crossed his legs.

Shortly after that, the banquet was hastily ended and I was asked to go back by myself...

"Hmm...maybe you are feeling anxious?"

You can't just go change your pants, right?

Shaking his head in pity, Ren Yidao lamented over the pitiable plight of a middle-aged man.

"As a middle-aged person, there is no choice but to soak wolfberries in a thermos."

"I used to pee three feet against the wind, but now I wet my shoes with the wind."

"Poor!"

"Someone come and change General Shi's pants!"

……

After sending Ren Yidao away, Shi Anqi's face twitched for a long time. He looked down at his pants, which had become wet for a while, and his eyes became moist for a while.

"Think about how majestic I was back then, how could I end up in such a situation now?"

When I was young, wasn't I also so proud?

It's a pity that later on I met a woman who ate people but never spit out their bones, and she tortured her day and night.

How much wine have I drunk now, and I can’t control myself...

Wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Shi Anqi coughed hard and spoke in the same tone as usual:
"Come on."

A guard who had been waiting for a long time walked into the room upon hearing the sound and knelt down on one knee respectfully in front of Shi Anqi.

"What is the commander's order?"

"You... go make arrangements and have someone bring me my daily clothes. I don't feel comfortable wearing this."

After thinking about it, Shi Anqi added seriously:
"Remember! Don't tell anyone!"

"One more thing, don't be discovered by my wife!!!"

……

……

When Ren Yidao returned to his residence, he saw an unexpected guest.The carriage of Prime Minister Wang Xuesong, who was hired back to support the party, was parked not far outside the door.

Ren Yidao looked at the sun, and then at the morning dew above. He probably didn't know how long he had been waiting for it, and his brows were raised even more covertly.

It had just dawned that day, and Wang Xuesong might have arrived early.

This old man probably rushed over as soon as he received the news that the Donghuang people were entering the city.

Before Wang Xuesong could get off the carriage, Ren Yidao jumped in. He asked softly to the old man who was concentrating with his eyes closed:

"Master Prime Minister, what do you mean? Why don't you go in..."

Slowly opening his eyes, Wang Xuesong showed a kind smile on his face and said:

"I originally planned to wait for a while before letting someone tell you, but I didn't expect that I was still discovered."

"I'm getting older, so I don't sleep much. I'm always energetic in the middle of the night. I couldn't help myself and rushed over here."

Smelling a trace of alcohol on Ren Yidao, he admonished:

"You are still young, so don't be careless, but you need to get more rest."

Although the old man was a bit verbose, his intentions were good. Ren Yidao nodded and thanked him, then asked:
"Thank you for your warning, sir. I wonder what you have to tell me when you come today?"

"Is it about the dispute between the two domains? Didn't we already reach an agreement last time?"

According to the last conversation, Ren Yidao acted as a mercenary and as a team leader for them.

Afterwards, regardless of whether you win or lose, you can take the reward from Beigan's treasury.

"Your Highness, don't worry. What I promised before will naturally not change."

Facing Ren Yidao's probing gaze, Wang Xuesong shook his head:
"I'm here today. I have two things to tell Your Highness, one big and one small. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"Well, let's talk about the little things first."

Wang Xuesong nodded and said:
"In this bet between the two domains, the Chu family named Chongzhou City."

Ok?
"...You mean, Chongzhou City?"

Narrowing his eyes, Ren Yidao repeated.

"Yes, it is the Chongzhou City that His Highness is familiar with."

Ren Yidao: "..."

With the news he received from Li Fengyao and Shi Anqi, Ren Yidao, who had some psychological preparation, was not too surprised by this result.

Donghuang's repeated temptations over the years are definitely not out of boredom, but must have some agenda.

Ren Yidao suppressed the thoughts in his heart and smiled easily:
"This is all about the small things, what about the big things? It's better for adults to stop being so secretive and speak out together."

"This is such a big deal, but...oh!"

Wang Xuesong's expression was full of helplessness. Ren Yidao actually saw helplessness on the face of this prime minister who had been an official in the north all his life.

How big of a deal is it to make him helpless?

Ren Yidao suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

With deep exhaustion in his eyes, Wang Xuesong said:

"In this battle between the two realms, Your Majesty has decided to send only one person to fight."

one person?
With an ominous premonition in his heart, Ren Yidao asked in a deep voice:
"Who is he going to send?"

Could it be...

Wang Xuesong also lowered his voice and said slowly:

"he himself."

Ren Yidao:?

Covering his eyes in pain, Wang Xuesong sighed:

"He said that he is still young and is the most suitable candidate."

The old man, who had worked hard for Beigan all his life, weakly held the young man's hand.

"Your Highness, I came to you today just for this matter."

"Go and persuade His Majesty..."

　I updated two chapters first, but my body is still very uncomfortable, and with Kavin on top of it, it’s very uncomfortable.

　　I worked hard until 10:30 to see how much I could write.
