Chapter 99: Yan Xiaoyi's choice, Emperor Qing is furious

Li Chengping shook his head. He already had enough people around him. Yan Xiaoyi's ninth-grade cultivation was not enough.

Yan Xiaoyi seemed to understand his own situation. After hesitating for a while, he took out a secret book from his arms and presented it to him.

"I understand that I am not qualified. This is my experience in cultivation. I hope it can help Your Highness."

Li Chengping picked up the secret book and opened it to take a look.

This is indeed Yan Xiaoyi's experience in cultivation. The content is recorded in great detail, and his own understanding is marked in every aspect.

The record is very comprehensive, and it can be seen that a lot of thought was put into it.

"Your Highness, I know I cannot escape death. I beg you to spare my family after my death."

Yan Xiaoyi kowtowed again and drew the sword from his waist. Before he could take the next step, he was pressed to the ground by Zhang Han.

"How dare you! How dare you attempt to assassinate His Highness!" Zhang Han shouted angrily.

If Li Chengping hadn't said nothing, he would have killed the man on the spot!
Yan Xiaoyi was also stunned for a moment, his cheek pressed to the ground, his mind blank.

He is a ninth-rank archer. In the whole of Qing Kingdom, except for the grandmasters and a few particularly perverted guys, no one can be his match.

Although he was caught off guard by Zhang Han's attack, he was now pinned to the ground and unable to move. This was somewhat unreasonable.

It was not until this moment that Yan Xiaoyi truly understood that what Li Chengping had just said was not a joke.

He originally thought that since Li Chengping did not bring the white-robed swordsman and the coachman with him this time, he would finally have a chance to use his skills. However, who would have expected that a young general would capture him directly.

"If you don't say anything, you're agreeing. Are you looking for death?"

Feeling the murderous intent emanating from Zhang Han, Yan Xiaoyi came to his senses and hurried to explain.

"General, I have absolutely no intention of assassinating Your Highness. I just..."

When the words came to his lips, Yan Xiaoyi suddenly stopped.

As the best archer in Qing Kingdom, his pride would not allow him to say that.

"Hmph, you have nothing to say!"

Zhang Han sneered and was about to push Yan Xiaoyi out for execution, but was called back by Li Chengping.

"Okay, let him go. He has no intention of assassinating me."

"Your Highness, but he just drew his sword on you. That's very disrespectful!"

Li Chengping smiled faintly.

"I know, but with you here, he won't be able to cause any trouble with his skills."

Zhang Han thought the same thing and let go of Yan Xiaoyi. But to be on the safe side, he took the weapon from his hand.

"Okay, you go out first. I have something to talk to him about." Li Chengping waved his hand.

After Zhang Han left, his eyes fell on Yan Xiaoyi and he smiled gently.

"I want to commit suicide and end it all. How can the number one archer in Qing country only have this much courage?"

"As a member of the guard team, I knew of the danger but did not inform His Highness to take precautions. This is a serious crime and the only punishment is death!"

Yan Xiaoyi's expression was extremely determined.

In fact, he knew in his heart that if he did not die, he would have no place to stay in the palace. Li Yunrui would definitely be wary of him, and Li Chengping would not be willing to take him in.

In a trance.

He seemed to be back in that dark night. The world was so big, but he couldn't find a place to stay.

"Since you have the courage to die, why can't you live well? Have you ever considered your family?"

"Even if I don't hold them accountable, do you think Li Yunrui will let anyone survive?"

Li Chengping's words were like a sharp knife piercing Yan Xiaoyi's heart.

Having worked for Li Yunrui for many years, he knew the eldest princess's temperament very well. If she learned of his death,

The other party will definitely not think about comforting his family, but will be very "enthusiastic" to send them off for a family reunion.

He used to do this kind of thing often when he was under Li Yunrui!
"Your Highness, I..."

Yan Xiaoyi hesitated for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence.

"Since you are so sincere, I will give you a chance." As he said this, Li Chengping took off a piece of beautiful jade from his waist and placed it on the table, then wrote a note and placed it underneath.

"I'll give you an address and hand this beautiful jade over to the steward, who will arrange the follow-up matters."

"After you leave, I will announce to the public that you sacrificed yourself to protect me, and you will not be able to see your family for a long time in the future."

"If you can't accept it, just pretend nothing happened today, but you can't stay in the team."

"Either return to Beijing or find another way out."

After saying that, Li Chengping turned and walked out of the tent.

A few minutes later.

When he came back after a round of inspection, Yan Xiaoyi was gone, along with the beautiful jade and the note on the table.

There was an extra piece of paper on the desk with four big words written on it.

Thank you, Your Highness!

At this time, Zhang Han walked in hurriedly.

"Your Highness, the guard at the door just reported that Yan Xiaoyi ran away with his palace guards. It is said that he is holding your jade pendant in his hand. I will arrange for someone to capture him immediately."

Li Chengping waved his hand and smiled faintly.

"No need. I arranged for him to leave. Send a pigeon to Zhao Gao and ask him to arrange for people to spread the news in the capital that Yan Xiaoyi sacrificed himself to protect me."

"Remember, the more people who know the news, the better!"

Zhang Han was completely confused. Although he didn't understand, he didn't ask any more questions and turned around to carry out the order.

The next day, the team set out again.

Without Yan Xiaoyi and his group, the originally dense team suddenly became sparse.

at the same time.

In the capital city, there is a stone house.

As a famous restaurant in the capital, it is frequented by dignitaries.

"Have you heard? The Third Prince was attacked by bandits on his way to Dongyi City to arrest the murderer. Commander Yan died heroically to protect the Third Prince!"

"Which Commander Yan?"

"It's Yan Xiaoyi, the commander of the imperial palace guards. He is truly loyal to the Third Prince. It's a pity for this hero!"

"The Third Prince was attacked by bandits just after leaving the city. How could it be such a coincidence? I think it was clearly arranged by Dongyi City!"

The people eating were talking about it.

The original intention was just to publicize the news of Yan Xiaoyi's sacrifice, but unexpectedly the minds of the spectators were so active that the matter suddenly escalated to the Dongyi City.

Upon hearing the news, Li Chengping burst into laughter.

Indeed, we should never underestimate the power of public opinion.

Inside the palace.

Emperor Qing was reading the memorials submitted today. When he saw the news about Yan Xiaoyi's sacrifice, he instinctively thought it was fake.

Then I opened the second memorial, and unexpectedly, what the minister wrote in the memorial was exactly the same.

Emperor Qing's expression gradually became serious, and he immediately called the eunuch Hou who was at the door.

"What's going on with Yan Xiaoyi? Also, how's the situation with the third brother?" Emperor Qing had a dark face.

Feeling an invisible sense of oppression, Eunuch Hou quickly bent down.

"Your Majesty, the news of Commander Yan's death is now circulating in the streets and alleys of the capital. As for the Third Prince, there is no news yet, and this old servant is not too sure."

"I don't know. I don't know anything. What's the point of this Overwatch Council?!"

Emperor Qing had a gloomy face and slammed his palm heavily on the table.

"Investigate! Immediately have Chen Pingping arrange for someone from the Supervisory Council to investigate. I must get news about the Third Brother before dark, or he will have to quit his job as the Director of the Supervisory Council!"
