Love Affairs in Chang'an - Chapter 96

Chapter 96 Jedi Counterattack
Qin Mubai looked at Concubine Yin De’s sudden change in expression and was still unable to understand it. At this moment, she realized that she was extremely frightened and then her face turned ashen, causing her heart to be even more shocked.

Fear? What was she afraid of? Could it be that she had noticed something extremely dangerous? … What could make Imperial Concubine Yin De feel dangerous?

Could it be that she sensed the Emperor’s killing intent? !

At this moment, Qin Mubai’s expression also changed. He frowned and whispered, “Your Highness, why are you so frightened and uneasy?”

“No, nothing.” Imperial Concubine Yin De is worthy of being someone who has experienced storms and seen the world. She instantly stabilized her emotions and her expression became comfortable. Her tone also returned to its original gentleness. She slowly said, “General Qin, His Majesty the Emperor allowed you to convince Ling’er. This shows how much he trusts and values you.” You must not let His Majesty down. “Actually, Ling’er is just too young and ignorant to be excited. This palace is about to convince her, so it won’t take General Qin any trouble.”

“That’s good.” Qin Mubai nodded in agreement, but in her heart, she said, This woman really knows how to speak. She clearly realized that the emperor had “sent” me, but she said “permission”. It was me, Qin Mubai, who bravely tried to persuade her. In this way, the emperor would be placed in a magnanimous and magnanimous position, rather than a cold and tough attitude.

Using softness to suppress strength and invisibly take care of the Emperor’s face to protect his dignity, this was probably the magic treasure that Concubine Yin De had been able to live in the world for so many years and become one of the four concubines of the harem! After all, her Yin Clan was the enemy of the Li Clan, and Li Shimin was her enemy who killed her father.

Just how tough and smart was this woman? Qin Mubai secretly exclaimed in his heart. He looked at the stunning Yin De Fei in front of him again, but her eyes met hers. He discovered that although Concubine Yin De was still dignified and noble with a smile on her face, her eyes inadvertently revealed a trace of fear and sorrow.

In the blink of an eye, Imperial Concubine Yin De naturally shifted her gaze away and smiled faintly, “Does the general want to see Ling’er?”

“No, I’m sorry to disturb you. I’ll take my leave now.” Qin Mubai stood up and bowed, ready to leave. He thought to himself, it’s really good of you to even give such a polite and tactful expulsion order.

“Wait!”

Just as Qin Mubai was about to leave, an angry reprimand came from behind the screen. Princess Gaoyang rushed out angrily. She glared at Qin Mubai and then roared at Imperial Concubine Yin De, “Mother, why didn’t you tell him the truth? What did you say? You almost convinced me? What a big lie!”-Qin Mubai, I told you, I would rather die than marry Fang Yiai! I’d rather die than die, I’d rather die than die! Do you hear me clearly? ”

For a moment, Qin Mubai and Concubine Yin De were stunned.

“Did you hear me clearly?” Princess Gaoyang shouted at Qin Mubai.

“I heard it very clearly. I’m afraid even the palace servants outside heard it very clearly.” Qin Mubai nodded and said.

“Ling’er, you’re too impulsive.” Imperial Concubine Yin De let out a long sigh and sat down dispiritedly, shaking her head.

‘”Mother! I don’t understand. Why are you so patient? You saw him this morning. How can such a virtuous man be my son-in-law? You obviously don’t like Fang Yiai, so why are you willing to let your daughter marry him?” Princess Gaoyang shouted angrily, “Anyway, I don’t care what you say. I don’t want to marry that stupid Fang Er! Qin Mubai, please reply to my father, either kill me or don’t let me marry Fang Er!”

Qin Mubai took a deep breath and nodded, “If I really answer like this, then I can only accompany you to your grave.”

“If Ling’er dies, can I live alone? I’ll accompany you to your grave!” Imperial Concubine Yin De’s eyes turned red as she spoke, and her voice suddenly choked. She covered her mouth with her hand, trying hard not to cry.

“You, you! … Why are you all forcing me like this!” Princess Gaoyang was anxious. She stomped her foot and burst into tears, “Why! Why are you all forcing me to do this! Wuuuuuuu, what exactly did I do wrong? Why did I marry that terrible man that I don’t like!”

Qin Mubai felt a headache. In his life, he was most afraid of women and children crying. Right now, one mother and daughter are crying loudly while the other is sobbing with their faces covered … Ah, what a sin. They are the family affairs of other people, so why did they involve me in this?

While the mother and daughter were crying, Qin Mubai thought to himself about a safe solution to this matter. Just now, Qin Mubai could vaguely sense a trace of intense danger from Concubine Yin De’s expression. If her guess was correct, Concubine Yin De must have realized the Emperor’s killing intent.

On the other hand, Princess Gaoyang’s marriage was related to the Emperor’s face. For an emperor, there was nothing more important than a sovereign’s might. The reason why the Emperor sent me to persuade Princess Gaoyang was probably because of ulterior motives. Perhaps he really had a murderous intent. If I can’t persuade Princess Gaoyang, then we’ll most likely end up in misery together.

In other words, right now, I, Qin Mubai, am on the same boat as this mother and daughter. Since that’s the case … why don’t I teach her that vicious scheme? Anyway, it’s better for others to be crippled than for me to die … Who told us to be forced? If we don’t stop fighting back, we might lose our lives!

However, this strategy was too risky. This was because all of the players were cunning characters. Li Shimin, Fang Xuanling, including those who were paying attention to this matter, which one of them wasn’t a human spirit? It was a bit difficult to be seamless.

At this moment, Princess Gao Yang and her daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly. Qin Mubai was so engrossed in her thoughts that she could no longer hear them crying as she turned a blind eye to everything before her.

“Smelly man, you really have no conscience. Seeing us crying so sadly, you won’t try to persuade us!” Princess Gao Yang suddenly turned her head from her mother’s embrace and cursed.

“That’s because I know that persuasion is impossible unless I can come up with a brilliant plan to preserve the beauty of both.” Qin Mubai suddenly smiled strangely and said.

The mother and daughter were stunned at the same time. They stopped crying and looked at him in surprise, “What’s the plan?”

“Although this plan is wonderful, it is very complicated and dangerous. At the same time, the fewer people who know, the better.” Qin Mubai turned to look at Imperial Concubine Yin De and cupped his hands. “Your Highness, please forgive me for being rude. I can only tell Her Highness Princess Gaoyang about this plan.”

“What kind of strategy is this so obscure?” Imperial Concubine Yin De frowned slightly and questioned, but immediately agreed, “However, since you are unwilling to tell this palace, you have your own reasons. This palace is helpless at the moment, so I can only trust you. Ling’er, for mother’s sake, you should avoid it first. You and General Qin are good at discussing plans, so don’t act impulsively, okay?”

“Good, good!” Princess Gaoyang hurriedly stood up from the ground and waved her sleeves to wipe away the tears on her face. “Mother, you haven’t slept all night. Go rest. This child will discuss with someone surnamed Qin.”

“Don’t be rude, it’s General Qin!”

“Understood, General Qin!” Princess Gaoyang hurriedly pulled her mother away and ran back to Qin Mubai. She anxiously said, “What’s the good plan? Tell me!”

Qin Mubai looked around vigilantly and whispered in her ear, “The palace has many eyes and ears. I can’t tell you everything at once. I can only do it step by step. Are you willing to believe me?”

Princess Gao Yang was stunned. She raised her head and looked at Qin Mubai in confusion and suspicion, staring straight into his eyes.

Qin Mubai’s eyes were firm, and he smiled confidently. “This plan is also very dangerous. But no matter how dangerous it is, it can’t be as dangerous as our current situation. Do you understand?”

“Is there?” Princess Gao Yang blinked her eyes a few times. “I have already fought to the death. After all, Father Emperor has always loved me. He definitely won’t force me!”

“You’re so childish!” Qin Mubai whispered, “To tell you the truth, it was the emperor who asked me to persuade you to agree to the marriage. Otherwise, do you think that I really dared to come to see you at such a time despite the world’s condemnation? The emperor said that if you don’t agree to marry Fang Yiai, then you’ll have to wait to marry into a Tibetan place and get married!”

“What?!” Princess Gaoyang was shocked. “How is that possible? How come I’ve never heard of it?”

Qin Mubai shook his head and sighed. Actually, he also knew that this was just a method Li Shimin used to scare Princess Gaoyang. Princess Wencheng was the most famous one in the history of the Great Tang. However, they were not the Emperor’s own princesses. They were the daughters of Emperor Qi. Naturally, Li Shimin was unlikely to give his own daughter to the savage Tibetans. However, it was best not to let Princess Gaoyang know of the current danger. Otherwise, with her temperament, it would be easier to go to extremes and do bad things. Therefore, he could only use Li Shimin’s excuse to scare her.

“It’s a matter of national importance. Do I dare to make it up? If you don’t joke, will the Emperor deceive us again?” Qin Mubai shook his head with a grim expression. “I’m afraid you don’t know what Tibetans are? Let me tell you. I heard that Tibetans born and raised on the plateau are not civilized yet, and they are rough and bloody. Moreover, they often share a wife with father and son brothers. If you marry them …”

“Stop!” Princess Gao Yang’s entire body trembled with fear as she gritted her teeth and nodded fiercely, “Alright, I believe you! Quickly tell me your plan!”

“First of all, you have to accept my advice today and express your willingness to obey and marry into the house.” Qin Mubai said.

“What are you talking about?!” As expected, Princess Gaoyang immediately jumped up.

“What are you excited about?” Qin Mubai knitted his eyebrows and glared at her, “Why are you so angry?”

“Mm … Alright. Tell me about your next plan.” Princess Gaoyang restrained herself and asked.

“No, I can’t tell you.” Qin Mubai said, “If I tell you the next plan, you will behave abnormally and attract suspicion. Now, all you need to do is take my advice and show obedience. You can reluctantly admit defeat and compromise helplessly. Don’t change your attitude too quickly, or you will reveal a flaw.”

After hearing this, Princess Gaoyang was speechless for a long time. She was as anxious as a hundred claws to know Qin Mubai’s plan. So he waved his pink fist and stamped his feet. He angrily and helplessly opened his teeth and clawed his claws for a while. He gritted his teeth and said, “Alright, I’ll let you do it! But if you dare to deceive me with some kind of slow-moving tactic or use the reality of wooden boats to frame me after I marry into the Fang Clan, I will definitely not stand apart from you!”

“You just said, believe me.” Qin Mubai said indifferently, “Now that we’re in the same boat, what good will it do for me to harm you? Remember, only the two of us can know about this matter, and we can’t divulge it to anyone else!”
