Chapter 223 Shocking Secret!

Li An pointed to the prisoner car behind him, where He Daoren and Shang Shanhu were guarding on both sides. As for Lang Tao and Haitang Duoduo, they had returned to the capital due to the lack of expert defense forces in the Shangjing Palace.

"The person is over there, send someone to check. Once your people have withdrawn from the border, Ye Liuyun will naturally be handed over to you."

"How can I trust you!"

If Li An kills Ye Liuyun after their people have retreated, what will happen if the Ye family far away in Kyoto rebels?
Don't underestimate the Ye family's background. Although it won't allow them to succeed, the Qing Kingdom will also be seriously injured! And this scene is undoubtedly what the person in front of him wants to see.

"It's up to you whether you believe it or not. If you don't believe it, you can just slit your throat and commit suicide on the spot. Then the negotiations between the two countries will be invalid, and we will have no choice but to fight!"

Li An chuckled, like a villain: "But I think that Emperor Qing didn't transfer you all the way from the west to here just to let you commit suicide in front of me, right?"

It was just what Li An wanted to do if he killed Qin Ye. If he committed suicide, his Qin family would be in trouble.

It seems that can only be the case.

"Then let's do as you say. I hope you can keep your promise and not cause any more trouble!" Qin Ye ended the meeting with an expressionless face.

Then, the civil servants of Qing State went to the prisoner car to check Ye Liuyun's identity. After confirming that it was correct, a special person kept a close eye on the prisoner car to ensure that it would not be replaced during the journey.

The handover lasted until the afternoon of the next day, when the soldiers of Qing State withdrew from the border of Northern Qi State, and Cangzhou County, which had been lost for a year, returned to the embrace of Northern Qi State again.

"Ye Liuyun, are you convinced?"

Ye Liuyun's face was ruddy inside the prison van. He was in good spirits except that he had lost one hand and one foot and was sitting against the iron pillar. The other hand and foot that were still attached to his body were also limp and weak, as if all his limbs were useless.

"I am convinced, but do you really need to go to the trouble of drugging a disabled person?" Ye Liuyun raised his head, his eyes gradually brightening.

His face was full of smiles, and his tone was indescribably casual and gentle, as if he had returned to his initial calm and relaxed state.

The conversation between the two was like that of old friends who had not seen each other for many years. How could they be as eager and competitive as before?
Li An sighed slightly. He didn't expect that Ye Liuyun, the great master that everyone in the world feared, would be willing to be a pawn for Emperor Qing and end up like this. It was really sad and lamentable!

In the original novel, as the golden undercover of Emperor Qing, he played an important role in the battle of Dadong Mountain. Not only did he kill Ku He, but he and Si Gu Jian also suffered losses. The reason for him to do so was very simple: for the Ye family!

Even though he has been away from home for many years and appears to have no concerns at all, he is the one who values ​​his family the most - that is the family that his brother has worked hard to maintain!
"Ha! As a grandmaster at the pinnacle of martial arts, with the fighting power to defeat an entire country, theoretically you will not obey anyone. Even if that person is the emperor, as long as you have that idea, you can make him live in the shadow of death every day."

Although Ye Liuyun is not a match for Emperor Qing, he cannot withstand such a person staring at him all the time, not to mention that this person is a grandmaster?
Seeing Qin Ye's increasingly dark complexion, Li An spoke to himself, "For you who is self-taught and has this kind of martial arts, money and status are meaningless. Emperor Qing wants to bribe you to work for him, and the only thing that can move you is your family's interests."

"I don't know if he promised to make the Ye family prosperous forever in Qing Kingdom or not. Is the ending of the Ye family what you expected? Maybe Beiqi can fulfill this promise for you?"

In the end, what Li Ang cared about was not Ye Liuyun's answer.

"For Emperor Qing, is it worth it?"

There was no answer to this question. Ye Liuyun in the prison car had already lowered his head and remained silent.

Li An didn't cause any more trouble and handed Ye Liuyun over to Qin Ye, although it was not complete.

"In that case, we'll see you later!"

There was a hint of threat in Qin Ye's words.

When two countries go to war, hundreds of thousands of troops are often involved. Although the Grandmaster is powerful, there is a limit to his power. They are human, not gods. Even if they can change the local war, it is just a drop in the bucket for the overall situation.

See you on the battlefield!
"I'm afraid I'll have to let you down. This may be the last time we meet." Li An said meaningfully.

When Qin Ye's troops slowly disappeared on the horizon, Li An called Shangshan Hu and planned to return home. Shangshan Hu would then be responsible for the defense of this area. "National Master." Shangshan Hu said with respect.

Not only did Li An save his adoptive father, but now Li An has integrated all the forces in the country and can be regarded as the number one person in the court. Coupled with his strength as a grandmaster and his numerous followers, Uesugi Tora is sincerely convinced of him.

Not to mention Li Ang, Yan Xiaoyi is not an easy person to deal with!

"What's the matter?"

"Didn't the Imperial Master say yesterday that he had something for me and my foster father to do?"

"Don't rush this. I'll give you news in a few days." Li An pondered the plan for a while, and his brows gradually relaxed. "If you want to do anything, you must let His Majesty know in advance. This is particularly important!"

Knowing that Li An was pointing at him, Shang Shanhu clasped his fists and said, "I understand."

Li An nodded, "Then let's go back!"

When Li An returned to Shangjing, it was more than ten days later. Although he rode at full speed, there were many civil officials accompanying him, so he could not go any faster even if he wanted to.

"Master He, have you repaid Chen Pingping's favor?"

Looking at the imperial palace that was about to arrive ahead, Li An suddenly asked Taoist He.

"Master, Mr. He's life will only belong to Da Qi from now on!"

Looking at the solemn face of Taoist He, Li An also continued to tell fortunes calmly. After all, once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of the rope for ten years.

After confirming the result, Li An told He Daoren: "After you finish discussing with His Majesty in the palace, you will be busy. At that time, you will go to the Black Ice Platform under Sean's command. There will be something for you to do."

"Yes, Imperial Master!"

Li An nodded and quickened his pace.

The Northern Qi Imperial Palace is still as beautiful as a dream.

In the main hall, apart from the officials who dealt with diplomatic affairs who went down to do their own official duties, those who remained in the hall were basically useful people who, in Li An's opinion, would not leak information.

The Grand Tutor, the Prime Minister, Sean, and a group of warriors above the ninth rank.
"Your Majesty, I have something important to report."

"Master, feel free to tell me what you want to say."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li An sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "Now, in addition to training soldiers and producing grain to strengthen our own strength, there are more ways to deal with Qing. And I have some information here. If used properly, it may greatly weaken the strength of Qing. Maybe there will be some unexpected surprises!"

"Oh?" Zhan Doudou's eyes lit up when she heard that, and she became interested. She and Li An had done everything they should and shouldn't have done in private, except for the last step of being husband and wife. After feeling the nourishment of love, Zhan Doudou was more eager to get Li An's care in an open and aboveboard manner.

Seeing that Li An had a way to greatly weaken Qing, the matter between the two of them could be a little closer. He couldn't help but hurriedly said, "Tell us one by one."

"This first piece of news is about Fan Xian. He is the son of Emperor Qing and Ye Qingmei! In other words, he is the current prince of Qing!"

Quiet, the whole hall was filled with silence.
