Chapter 203 Dilemma
I quickly denied the guess just now. If Mr. Fu and Sai Kamen are in the same group, why should Sai Kamen panic?My guesses are wrong. It seems that I will ask Mr. Fu to explain these problems when I return home.

"I heard that the emperor invited Mrs. Ji to enter the palace?" I looked at the emperor. Since I told him that Sai Kamen was suspicious, the emperor would definitely arrest Sai Kamen for interrogation after seeing the tragic situation in the cloud of silence. Does the emperor know the truth now?

"Hmm." The emperor's expression darkened when he heard me ask about Saikamen.I said anxiously: "Is it related to Mrs. Ji's surrender to General Ji?"

"Her? She's hard-spoken." The emperor's eyes were sharp, and he smiled coldly, "Thinking that if you don't say a word, I will have nothing to do with her, so you don't know her purpose?"

"The emperor knows her purpose? Does she really have a grudge against General Ji?" Hearing the emperor's tone, it seems that Saikamen has not been tortured to extract a confession. How did the emperor know?I frowned, and tentatively said: "General Ji is an upright person, so he shouldn't do something that makes people hate him, is there a misunderstanding?"

"Jingyun's character is upright, some ideas are too stubborn, and he knows his way to the end. I have warned him long ago that this woman has ulterior motives for approaching him, but he just doesn't listen." The emperor patted the little girl, and said angrily, "Now it's Ask for trouble!"

I remembered that Pingan said that before General Ji wanted to marry Saikamen, he had a fierce dispute with the emperor. It turned out that the emperor had become suspicious of Saikamen at that time. They thought they were smart, that others were kept in the dark, but in fact they had already seen the opportunity.

"It turns out that the emperor knew that Mrs. Ji had a problem a long time ago, so why did the emperor still agree to let General Ji marry her?" I looked at him quietly, did the emperor have other arrangements?If it is true, is there anything in this world that he cannot use?
"My hussar general of the Tianzhao Kingdom, Duke Ding of the first grade, wants to marry a woman from a brothel of unknown origin as his wife. Do you think I will allow him to mess around like this?" The emperor snorted coldly, "It's fine if it's someone else. , I can’t order it, so who can do it? It’s Jingyun, last time I gave him and Huinuan a marriage, but Huinuan died of illness, Jingyun asked me for a wish afterwards, and his marriage will be in his own hands As the master, I understood his feelings at the time and agreed to him."

There is still such a stubble?For some reason, I always felt that when the emperor mentioned Hui Nuan's name, his pronunciation was a bit harsh. I was a little guilty, so I quickly changed the topic: "Since General Ji knows that Mrs. Ji is approaching him for other purposes, why do you still want to marry her?" Even though General Ji and Saikamen are husband and wife, he is not a fool. He will not insist on marrying her even though he knows she is going to kill him. Is there any inside story that outsiders don't know?Could it be that Ji Jingyun really fell in love with Sai Kamen?

"Jingyun felt guilty towards that woman and wanted to make it up to her. I also blamed me for being careless. I underestimated that woman's means, thinking that with Jingyun's skills, even if the woman wanted to kill him, it would not be so easy. Yun easily subdued her, so he didn't object to the end." The emperor said in a deep voice, "I didn't expect that she would use such a vicious method to deal with Jingyun. Jingyun suffered this time because of his temper! "

General Ji feels guilty about Sai Kamen?Sai Kamen had wanted to kill Ji Jingyun more than once, even the emperor knew?Assassinating an important official of the imperial court is already a felony, but the emperor knowingly did not punish her, and let her assassinate again and again. What is the secret behind this?I frowned and said, "General Ji really did something wrong to her?"

"How could Jingyun have a personal grievance with a woman." The emperor snorted coldly, "It's Saikamen who can't distinguish between black and white. Thanks to Jingyun's good intentions, he ended up like this!"

"Has the emperor found out who she is?" I believe that the emperor has already got some information about Saikamen. Maybe the emperor has been paying attention to her secretly since the first day she was listed in the brothel under the name of Saikamen.She thought that using the name "Sai Carmen" could attract Ji Jingyun's attention, and she did achieve her goal, but what she didn't know was that I, an unknown "Carmen" who had fallen into a brothel, was also a thorn in the emperor's heart. Such a high-profile use of the name "Saikamen" exposed herself at the very beginning. It is strange that the emperor did not investigate her.

"Sai Kamen?" The emperor sneered, "That woman is most likely the family member of Marshal Valekin of the Chenxing Kingdom. Judging from her appearance and age, she should be his youngest daughter Zoya."

"Ah?" I couldn't help but lose my voice, "She is from the Chenxing country?" Then, since Sai Kamen is the daughter of a high-ranking foreign official, how could he have a personal enmity with General Ji?If it is not a personal enmity, is it a national enmity?Could it be that she is a spy of Chen Xing Kingdom?
Seeing my surprised expression, the emperor probably guessed what I was thinking, and continued: "Jingyun was stationed at the border in northern Xinjiang for three years, and fought more than ten battles with northern Xinjiang, and Valedin died in the last battle. During a battle in Northern Xinjiang."

I suddenly realized: "That is to say, Zoya's father died in the war in northern Xinjiang, so she came to Tianzhao Kingdom alone to avenge her father?"

The emperor smiled coldly, and seemed to have reservations about the question.I thought about it, and understood that the emperor's suspicion was not unfounded. Then Saikamen is a native of Chenxing country, and also a lady of the official family. How could he know the head-bending technique of the secret tribe in southern Xinjiang?She used her body as a lure, and used hypnosis to urge her to surrender. Who taught her these things?Who is the head-bending master who taught her these sorcery?
"Then... what is the emperor's plan now?" For a moment, countless thoughts swirled in his mind.Leaving aside the issue of who Saikamen is colluding with for the time being, it is General Ji's current situation. I wonder how the emperor will deal with it?If there is only one way to save General Ji, and the emperor needs to use the divine tripod to protect the country, will the emperor agree?Even if General Ji is the emperor's confidant, the protection of the country is related to the luck of the emperor and the stability of the imperial power. Think about the tragic battles for imperial power in history. From ancient times to the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, which dynasty ascended the throne of the emperor Is there no blood on the steps?Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty murdered his father and brother, Li Shimin's change in the Xuanwu Gate, the mystery of Song Taizu's "candlelight and ax shadow", Ming Chengzu's "Qingjun side" launched an army "Jingnan", Kangxi's nine sons seized the throne... this is the Tianzhao Kingdom in different time and space , the young emperor in front of him has a difficult and bumpy road to the throne. Will he easily take something related to his imperial power and national destiny to save the life of a subject?Even if this courtier is his trusted confidant?
Furthermore, even regardless of the theory of luck, if the head-subduing master who joined forces with Sai Kamen to make a shocking cloud, if he has a cooperative relationship with Sai Kamen, what is his purpose?He can't be so coincidental, he also has enmity with Ji Jingyun, right?On the surface, it seems that the matter of the silent shock is just a personal grievance between Sai Kamen and him, but after thinking about it deeply, no matter how you look at it, the finger is directed at the emperor.Whether the emperor saves him or not, it is not good for the emperor. If the emperor saves him, he will destroy his luck and put himself in danger within 49 days. If the emperor does not save him, he will lose the usefulness of General Ji. The pillar of the country, lost one of his few confidants.To save or not to save, the emperor faced a dilemma.

"How do you plan..." The emperor smiled faintly, and glanced at me with deep meaning, "If you were Zhen, what would you do?"

"I..." I hesitated for a moment, if I were him, I would definitely choose to save Ji Jingyun, but I am not him after all, no matter what I say at this time, it is wrong.After thinking about it, I still said honestly: "The concubine will save General Ji, because the concubine doesn't have so many scruples, and the concubine's thinking has always been very simple."

He looked at me deeply, his eyes gradually dimmed, wondering if he was guessing the authenticity of my words.I hesitated for a moment, and still asked: "Will the emperor save General Ji?" His gaze fell on his drooping eyelids, and after a long while, the emperor said calmly: "I have my own opinion on this matter, you will Leave it alone."

own claim?What claim do you have?Each of these men is so conceited that I have seen a lot of them in TV novels.Although the surrender of General Ji was caused by Saikamen's deliberate mischief, and his insidious methods are hard to guard against, but are the emperor and Ji Jingyun themselves not responsible?They all knew that this woman came with bad intentions, but one still insisted on marrying her, maybe because of guilt, or because of other reasons, relying on his own skills, he let this dangerous woman by his side, with Ji Jingyun's character, Maybe he also promised to give Saikamen a chance to kill him, as long as she could kill him; and the other finally agreed to Ji Jingyun's marriage, just to continue to investigate the purpose of this woman. Obviously, the emperor wants to avenge his father I don't really believe what she said, so even if I know that this woman is a dangerous person, I comfort myself with the fact that General Ji's skill is not easy to be harmed by others, or I look down on a little girl, and I can't make any troubles at all.If these men weren't too conceited, why would General Ji follow Sai Carmen's way?

"Your majesty..." I looked up suddenly, the emperor didn't make a clear statement on whether to save Ji Jingyun or not, if you told me to ignore it, how could I be at ease?Just as he was about to speak, he saw Shuangxi hurried in from the outer hall and knelt down on the ground: "Report to the emperor, the side hall is ready, does the emperor want to move?"

"Understood." The emperor raised his hand, Shuangxi quietly withdrew, the emperor looked up at me and said, "I still have something to do, you should go back today."

I bit my lip and said softly: "Your Majesty, my concubine would like to see Mrs. Ji, please allow me!" There are too many secrets about this Saikamen. Give it a try, maybe I can get some information from her, which will be helpful to General Sabi.

The emperor looked serious, and said coldly: "What are you doing seeing her? I tell you to ignore this matter!"

I hurriedly stood up, knelt down on the ground, and begged: "Your Majesty, I know that I am self-willed and embarrassing you, but you know my temperament. It's fine if I don't know about it, but now I know." , How can you let me ignore it? Now that things are up to now, why are you still worried about the concubine? The concubine will never do anything that is not good for the emperor. The emperor, I just want to help General Ji, I don’t want to be around me My friend is hurt, please let me see Mrs. Ji."

"You..." The emperor looked at me with a complex expression, with a hint of anger in his tone, "Don't you understand? I don't want you to get involved with Jingyun, it's for your own good, let you see Jingyun like that, You can't help it, you..."

He suddenly stopped talking, looked at my tearful eyes, frowned, and after a while, he sighed: "Forget it, you get up, I'm sure."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." I quickly thanked you.The emperor supported me, and sighed softly: "It's fine if I see you, I just want to make you feel at ease. I don't want you to get involved in this matter, do you understand?"

His expression was determined, I looked at his expression, and suddenly understood that he had already made a decision in his heart, but this decision, he was not going to let me know.Why?If he is willing to save General Ji, why is he afraid that I will know?Could it be that he chose to give up General Ji in order to stabilize the imperial power?
I felt chills in my heart, but I couldn't say anything more, because I couldn't blame him for his actions.Seeing my sudden change of expression, the emperor guessed my thoughts, the corners of his lips moved slightly, but he didn't say much, just said: "Let's go, I'm going to see Saikamen!"
