"I don't dare." Wen Jin lowered his eyebrows in submission, his attitude was extremely obedient and docile, "I know I was wrong."

"You know what's wrong?" Yan Qing narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a complicated tone, "You have done a good job. You are a powerful minister. I should be happy for you."

Wen Jin's heart sank, and she clenched her hands tightly: "Isn't it——"

"When I decided to let you join the officialdom, I should have understood that sooner or later you would become stronger." Yan Qing said calmly, "This day comes earlier than I expected."

Yan Qing said this without any other meaning, it was just the truth.

Wen Jin's current methods of controlling the city are definitely in line with the characteristics of a powerful minister.

However, to Wen Jin's ears, these words seemed to say that you are out of my control and I don't want you anymore.

The blood on the handsome face of the powerful minister faded, and his handsome face was as pale as paper: "I have done a lot of things recently that made His Highness unhappy. I will ask His Highness to punish me when I return to Suzaku City."

Yan Qing raised his eyebrows: "You seem to be particularly looking forward to my punishment."

Wen Jin nodded: "Yes."

"Why?"

"I did something wrong and deserved to be punished." Wen Jin pursed her lips and said in a lonely voice, "I haven't done enough to satisfy His Highness. I am dull and often make mistakes. Sometimes I don't take everything into consideration. There are also mistakes in calculations... I need to be taught a lesson by Your Highness."

"An oversight in calculation?" Yan Qing smiled faintly, "For example?"

Wen Jin looked down at the soft blanket spread in the carriage, the corners of her lips turned white.

"Don't want to say it?"

Wen Jin lowered his eyes and fell silent, feeling silent in his heart. Even though his sin was serious, how could he speak at this time?

"I will only give you one chance." Yan Qing said calmly, "If you don't tell me this time, you won't have the chance to tell me later."

Wen Jin was slightly startled and couldn't help but open her lips: "Your Majesty..."

Yan Qing looked at him calmly.

"I did something very stupid, very stupid once." The voice of the powerful minister was harsh, and the hands hanging by his sides were about to tear his robe to pieces, "It was very stupid, very stupid... very stupid."

He used five "very stupid" words in a row, which made Yan Qing couldn't help laughing: "How stupid is it?"

"This is stupidity that needs to be taught a lesson by His Highness." There was bitterness and loneliness in Wen Jin's voice, but more of regret and anguish, "I am not good enough, smart enough, and capable enough—"

"Stop." Yan Qing raised his hand, "I don't want to hear your nonsense."

Wen Jin calmed down and began to be immersed in regret again, unable to extricate himself.

He didn't say anything about how stupid what he did was.

Yan Qing didn't bother to ask more questions.

The carriage quickly started moving again without any delay from the failed assassination.

Langya, who was riding alone on the horse, couldn't help but sigh, His Highness was so hard-spoken and soft-hearted.

They talk about punishment and cleaning up, but what is the reality?

Wen Jin was obviously supposed to ride with him, but instead he rode in a carriage with His Highness for two days. When he stopped to rest at night, he asked for some ointment from him. Everyone knew why His Highness asked for the ointment.

A grown man, can he be so pretentious?

But Langya was also wondering, had Wen Jin done something very stupid?

when? What's up?

After the carriage left, Yan Qing changed horses on the next day and galloped all the way to Suzaku City. When he crossed the border of Chu State, he met up with Suzaku King Luming who came to meet him.

Lu Ming is still a young and handsome man, but his appearance and demeanor are different from that of Jin. He is more aggressive and fierce, with a tall and thin body. His whole body exudes the edge of a sword's scabbard - yes, that is a scabbard. of sword.

It was sharp and cold, making 그 feel dangerous.

The horse's hooves gradually stopped, and Lu Ming respectfully stepped forward and saluted, "Is your highness safe and well?"

"Nothing's wrong."

Lu Ming turned to look at Wen Jin and raised his eyebrows: "Are you not dead yet?"

Wen Jin was on his way and had already adjusted his mood. Hearing the words, he said calmly: "Toefl, not yet."

"What kind of blessing is that?" Lu Ming sneered, "You are not welcome in Suzaku City."

Wen Jin looked calm: "You don't have the final say whether you welcome me or not."

As soon as he said this, Wen Jinyan fell silent.

These words sounded very familiar.

Wen Jin pursed her lips and glanced at Yan Qing, then quietly closed her eyes and said nothing more.

Lu Ming snorted coldly and turned to look at Yan Qing: "The regent, Chen Guojiu, has arrived at Suzaku City. What are your plans?"

Yan Qing was not surprised at all when he heard this: "How many days have you been here?"

"Two days ago." Lu Ming frowned, "My Highness was not feeling well, so he never let them see him. The Regent didn't say anything, but Uncle Chen Guo was very dissatisfied and repeatedly asked to meet His Highness. Angry and anxious, as if there was something urgent."

"There are indeed urgent matters." Yan Qing said calmly, "If I leave you so far, Queen Mother Yan Chen's poison will take effect."

Lu Ming was surprised: "Your Highness poisoned the Emperor... well, I mean, did you really poison the Emperor and the Queen Mother?"

He originally wanted to say the emperor, but when he thought that the emperor and Yan Qing were brothers and sisters, the consequences of saying this would be to take advantage of His Highness, so he decided to go back.

Wen Jin raised her eyes slightly, glanced at him calmly, then looked back calmly, looking down at her hands.

After these heavenly medicines and maintenance, the hands have almost returned to their original state. Some marks left on the palms are not obvious at first glance, and hardly affect the appreciation of the hands.

Of course, it will not affect the speed and accuracy of his killing.

"I didn't expect that Your Highness really poisoned the Queen Mother and the Emperor." Lu Ming climbed onto the horse, "But the Queen Mother, that old witch, is cruel and should be taught a lesson."

When he received the news, he didn't believe it. He didn't expect that Your Highness was so cool and said he would poison without any scruples.

"The King of Suzaku is talking more and more without taboos." Langya reminded slowly, "The old witch you are talking about is Your Highness's mother."

Lu Ming sneered: "She is not worthy of being a mother, let alone Your Highness's mother."

Langya: "..." Makes sense.

Yan Qing didn't react to what they said.

"After returning to the Imperial City, did that old witch cause trouble for Your Highness again?" Lu Ming said in an unhappy tone, "Your Highness is so kind, if they didn't choose to die, Your Highness would definitely not poison them."

Kind?

Yan Qing had a subtle expression, and then lazily hummed: "I am the kindest woman in the world."

"Your Highness is not only kind, but also the most beautiful and the most noble." Lu Ming flattered without blushing, "There is only one in the sky, and there is no one in the world."

Yan Qing frowned: "What is your intention in flattering me like this?"

"Didn't Your Highness just send two servants to the palace?" Langya guessed, "The King of Suzaku may also want to be one of them."
