Prince Pampers the Escaping Consort

Everyone was filled with doubts. They didn't understand why Liu Peng had appeared in the Southern Water Country during the war between the two countries.

Compared to the others who were shocked, Liu Zhitian and Nangong Zhen's actions were one of utter astonishment and disbelief.

They never imagined that Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin would actually send for Liu Peng.

As soon as he opened his mouth, the matter would be exposed and all that they had done would be for naught.

"Enter the Emperor." Liu Peng clasped his hands and bowed to Nangong Xiao.

Nangong Xiao frowned slightly as she sized up Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin. The two of them seemed to be prepared.

"Get up." He raised his hand to indicate for Liu Peng to immediately stand straight in the middle of the hall.

"Your majesty, the Mirror Kingdom has gone too far. They actually sent Liu Peng here at a time like this. We absolutely cannot be merciful and kill him." Liu Zhitian excitedly gave his opinion to Nangong Xiao.

Nangong Xiao swept Liu Zhitian a glance and said solemnly, "General Liu, don't you know that? When two nations fight, we don't kill and we don't use it. "

These words immediately blocked Liu Zhitian's path. He awkwardly stood where he was. As a general, how could he have made such a low level mistake?

"The Emperor is truly righteous." Liu Peng bowed to show his respect.

"General Liu, why have you come to my Nanshui Country?" Nangong Xiao asked.

"This general will tell you one thing." Liu Peng didn't conceal anything and immediately stated his purpose of coming.

His words drew everyone's attention to Yan Xiaoxi, causing them to wonder if what Yan Xiaoxi said was true.

This time, perhaps there was another reason for Dongjing's invasion?

"General, feel free to speak." Nangong Xiao immediately agreed.

Liu Peng looked at Yan Xiaoxi and was about to say something when his gaze suddenly shifted to Liu Zhitian's hand.

Liu Zhitian held a crystal clear jade pendant in his hand. The moment Liu Peng saw it, his expression changed.

He clenched his fists. No one showed any expression on his face. However, his gaze was firmly fixed on the jade pendant.

Suddenly, Liu Peng retracted his gaze. He first glanced at Yan Xiaoxi before looking at Nangong Xiao, who was sitting on the dragon throne. After considering it over and over again, he finally had an answer in his heart.

This time, Liu Peng didn't say anything. Instead, he suddenly laughed, turned around, pointed at the court official, and arrogantly said, "You can't really think that this general came here to explain the Dongjing Country's attack, right?"

Everyone was stunned by Liu Peng's sudden appearance. No one understood what he actually meant.

If he hadn't come for this matter, then why had Princess Lin come for this matter? What did she mean by her words just now?

Everyone's gaze swept over Liu Peng's body in every direction as they were truly astonished by his actions.

"What does General Liu mean by this?" Liu Zhitian smiled with satisfaction and put the jade pendant back into his sleeve.

"What does General Liu want to say?" Nangong Zhen complied. In the entire hall, there was probably no one more clear than him and Liu Zhitian on why Liu Peng suddenly changed his mind and why he did this.

Liu Zhitian and Nangong Zhen looked at each other. Nangong Zhen's crafty eyes unexpectedly showed a hint of praise towards Liu Zhitian.

The older, the wiser. That was not wrong at all.

If it wasn't for Liu Zhitian, Liu Peng would probably tell them everything about their conspiracy. At that time, they would suffer the consequences and bring disaster upon themselves.

Yan Xiaoxi also saw this move. She could tell that Liu Peng definitely had something up his sleeve, because his smile was so unreal and filled with reluctance.

She had also noticed the jade pendant that Liu Zhitian had taken out. At first, she was puzzled by this behavior.

It was only now that Yan Xiaoxi finally understood that Liu Zhitian had something on Liu Peng.

"What do you mean, you don't understand?" Liu Zhitian laughed even more arrogantly.

At this moment, a hurried guard ran in and half-knelt on the ground as he reported, "Your majesty, an urgent letter from 800 meters away from the border has arrived."

"Present." The Minister of Imperial Household immediately handed the letter to Nangong Xiao.

When Nangong Xiao opened it, she immediately read it carefully. When she finished reading the letter, he was immediately infuriated. He pinched the letter in his hand and pointed it at Liu Peng as he ordered, "Someone, arrest him."

Immediately after he gave the order, someone moved out to capture Liu Peng.

Everyone was alarmed. No one could understand why Nangong Xiao was so infuriated. They could not help but be even more curious about the contents of the letter.

"Does the emperor know the purpose of this general's visit?" Liu Peng was like a fish on a chopping block, waiting to be slaughtered. However, his attitude was neither servile nor overbearing, and he didn't have the slightest bit of fear.

Nangong Xiao stood up abruptly and asked coldly, "Are you not afraid This Emperor will kill you?"

"The Emperor said just now that when the two countries fight, they don't kill each other." Liu Peng smiled. He wasn't the least bit worried about his life.

"Father, what happened?" The corner of Nangong Zhen's mouth curled up as he pretended that he did not know anything.

"The border is in a hurry. The Mirror Kingdom will attack again and we will be defeated." Nangong Xiao gritted her teeth as she spat out those words.

What? How was this possible?

The generals of the Eastern Mirror Kingdom were here. Who would lead them and attack them from afar?

But thinking about it, everyone immediately understood. Battling relied on tactics and arrangement of troops. As long as everything had been arranged beforehand, even if the main general was not on the battlefield, it was still possible for them to win.

Liu Peng coming to the Southern Water Country at this time was a type of tactic. In order to make the Southern Water Country lower their guard, he had to sneak attack them at the border and catch them off guard.

This person was truly worthy of being a general on par with Nangong Lin. His methods were truly extraordinary.

"Imperial Father, you saw it too. Princess Lin and Liu Peng are in cahoots." After what happened to Liu Peng, Yan Xiaoxi's situation had indeed aroused more suspicion.

"May the Emperor kill Yan Xiaoxi, please." Liu Zhitian immediately agreed, and he worked seamlessly with Nangong Zhen.

"Please, your majesty, kill Princess Lin." With this, the facts were laid out in front of them, and none of the officials stood on Yan Xiaoxi's side.

Nangong Xiao frowned and felt troubled. He looked at the silent Nangong Xiao and asked, "Ling'Er, how do you think we should deal with this matter?"

"This King wants to see who dares?" Naturally, Nangong Lin continued to protect Yan Xiaoxi.

Yan Xiaoxi looked at Nangong Lin with a silly expression, clapping her hands and shouting, "Little Linlin is truly domineering."

Nangong Lin turned his head, his eyes filled with helplessness. This woman, after all, did she know of his current situation? From the looks of it, she was quite happy.

"Royal brother, are you trying to openly betray the country?" Nangong Zhen coldly asked as he easily placed the heavy crime on Nangong Lin.

"This King does not."

"No?"

"Of course."

"But everyone has seen your royal brother's actions. Even if Yan Xiaoxi is your royal consort, she is now a traitor of the Eastern Mirror Kingdom. Our Southern Water Nation absolutely cannot be forgiven." Nangong Zhen continued.

After the ministers heard this, they all nodded their heads, thinking that Nangong Lin was doing the wrong thing.

"Yes, the Crown Prince's words are reasonable." A certain official was unable to restrain himself from expressing his opinion.

"We absolutely cannot let Princess Lin go." The other minister agreed.

"May Your Majesty please kill Princess Lin."

"He killed Princess Lin." In a split-second, the situation had turned into a white-hot climax, so his heart was moved by Nangong Zhen.

"Yes!"
