Seeing that she had relented, GongYimo relaxed her tense back and smiled calmly.
"The Empress Dowager must not like me, right? How about this … As long as the Empress Dowager allows Si Wuyan to leave Yuhua City alive, I will return to Dai Yu state and no longer interfere with Yu Qi's matters. How about that? "
Dong Luanyi did not speak.
Let Si Wuyan go? Although she was confident in her poison and believed that Si Wuyan would not survive, she was still hesitant about letting him go.
She knew about Si Wuyan's talent. If he did not die this time and made a comeback, even with the child in her hands, she would not be able to hold her ground. If those who supported her saw that Si Wuyan was not dead, they would definitely not allow her to raise another puppet. They were worried that she would become too powerful and eventually lose control of the country.
However, GongYimo's conditions were also very tempting. Without her orders, even if more than half of the people switched sides to Si Wuyan, what could they do? Now that Shang Mingxi had returned, he also had the military power in his hands. In this way, Si Wuyan had less than fifty thousand soldiers, while she had two hundred and fifty thousand. It was not enough to be a threat.
However … if Shang Mingxi knew that Si Wuyan was not dead, would he … switch sides again?
Dong Luanyi was deeply conflicted and was in a difficult position.
On the other side, Shang Mingxi looked at the mischievous monkey in front of him and held the note with a smile.
On the note was a sentence. "His Majesty has been rescued. The situation is critical. Please come and save him."
However, he did not move. It had to be said that GongYimo had guessed correctly. Shang Mingxi was starting to have his own considerations.
He knew very well that with the Empress Dowager's temperament, even if His Majesty was rescued, he would still be in a state of uncertainty. Moreover, GongYimo herself had said that the situation was "critical". It was not wise for him to get involved in this mess.
If the Emperor was not going to make it, he could still do well with the Empress Dowager. However, if he appeared now, it was uncertain whether the Emperor would survive or not. He would definitely be standing on the opposite side of the Empress Dowager …
If it was in the past, he would not hesitate. However, His Majesty now had a child …
Shang Mingxi looked at the crying child not far away and a trace of gentleness flashed across his eyes.
As long as he had a child, even if he was by the Empress Dowager's side, he could make the child look like what he wanted. As long as he was willing, this child would be a thousand times more perfect than his father. Moreover, there would be no stain. When he grew up and the Empress Dowager was old, he could inherit the throne without making a big fuss. Everything was logical. Why should he give up what was near and seek what was far away?
Seeing that he had not moved for a long time, the little monkey scratched his head and took out a note from the pocket of his vest.
There's more? Shang Mingxi raised his eyebrows and opened it.
"Do you want to be the Dark Emperor? But I don't agree with you being the Dark Emperor. Yuqi will fall behind the other three nations."
Was this a threat? Shang Mingxi didn't have to guess to know that this was GongYimo's tone. If His Majesty died, the Empress Dowager would support a puppet dictatorship. But the Empress Dowager didn't like to deal with political affairs, so these things would eventually fall into his hands. The title of Dark King was not wrong.
But why didn't they agree with him? What he wanted to do would only be better than what His Majesty was doing now.
The little monkey was baffled by his stare and took out another piece of paper.
There were only four words on it, "Bad character."
Shang Mingxi couldn't help laughing when he saw this! GongYimo really understood him. What Yuqi urgently needed now was someone who could abandon himself for the country. He was better than Si Wuyan, more mature, and more rational. But he couldn't sacrifice himself for the country, but Si Wuyan could.
The little monkey took out the last piece of paper.
"You once said that you didn't want Yuqi to have more children like you. I promise you this wish in the name of the princess!"
The smile on Shang Mingxi's face disappeared and his eyes became cold.
After a long time, the little monkey was frightened by his appearance and shrank its neck. But he patted its head and revealed a smile that made its hair stand on end!
Dong Luanyi was thinking about GongYimo's words, and GongYimo was also arguing with her.
At this moment, Bai Qiyou walked out from the shadows and stunned everyone present. They didn't expect someone to be hiding here.
GongYimo gestured for him to carry Si Wuyan. The two exchanged glances and she knew that Bai Qiyou had done it.
Next, it was up to Shang Mingxi to decide!
"Empress Dowager, you have to make a decision quickly. If you continue to hesitate, the contents of the deal won't be like this …"
Dong Luanyi finally made up her mind.
"GongYimo, Aijia admits that you are very smart and know how to control people's hearts. But Aijia thinks that letting the tiger return to the mountain is no different from digging your own grave!"
Her eyes suddenly flashed with a venomous light. "Say, Si Wuyan loved you before he died and wanted to drag you down with him. What do you think of this ending? It's still very much like his style, isn't it? "
GongYimo smirked. "You mean that even if it means starting a war with Dai Yu state, you will still kill him and me?"
Dong Luanyi smiled. "Yes, you … will all die here!"
Then, she raised her eyebrows. "What are you waiting for? Kill them! "
The Empress Dowager's order stunned the thousands of imperial guards present. They feared GongYimo from the bottom of their hearts, but now that she was so weak, she didn't seem difficult to deal with.
GongYimo looked calm on the surface, but she was secretly anxious.
Dong Luanyi sneered. "Don't wait anymore. This time, you will all die!"
"That may not be true …"
A gentle male voice sounded. GongYimo heaved a sigh of relief, but Dong Luanyi turned around as if she had seen a ghost and stared at Shang Mingxi!
But this wasn't the scariest thing. The scariest thing was that he was carrying a child! A large group of palace servants followed behind him, but they didn't dare to get close to him. They could only watch as he carried the child closer. Every step seemed to be stepping on Dong Luanyi's heart!
Shang Mingxi must have threatened them, so they didn't dare to use force. But she trusted him so much! Why did she value him so much?!
"Shang Mingxi!" She suddenly jumped off the carriage and shouted his name with a twisted expression. "Shang Mingxi!!"
Shang Mingxi smiled at her. "Empress Dowager Jin 'an, please don't get too close. Otherwise, this child's life will be at stake …"
Hai Qing quickly stopped the Empress Dowager and said in a low voice.
"Please calm down!"
"Calm down?!" Her eyes were instantly bloodshot, as if she had been ruthlessly slapped in the face, or as if someone had forcefully stabbed her with a knife!
She continued to stare at Shang Mingxi. How could she calm down?! How could she calm down?!
"Why did you betray Aijia?! Haven't Aijia given you enough? You should know that what Aijia can give you, Si Wuyan can't give you in his lifetime! "
Shang Mingxi stroked the child's head and avoided her gaze as he sighed softly.
"There are some things … that she can give you, but you can't."
This' she 'was referring to GongYimo!
