Chapter 27
The shikigami who flew back turned into the form of paper, with a slightly light blue color.I don't know what extreme method Lao Sun used later, in short, he really pried open the assassin's mouth and asked for information.
After Yan Haoling browsed quickly, she handed it over to Lie Yi. "Yi, what do you think?"
"I have no opinion." Lie Yi replied lightly, but folded his hands and did not pick up the note.What I said is that I have no opinion. In fact, it is more like that I don’t want to comment on this matter.It doesn't matter what the reason is, he just doesn't want to involve himself in Yan Haoling's right and wrong too quickly.
He didn't force it, took back the paper, lightly waved it in the air, and it turned into fly ash immediately. This was originally transformed by his shikigami, and it was not difficult to do this step.
"The behind-the-scenes messenger is the royal family of the Ice Clan, and the reason is probably predictable." Yan Haoling said unhurriedly, not as if speaking to others, but more like talking to herself.
However, the distance is too close, just above a private room or a dining table, Lie Yi can't hear it even if he wants to.He, who is used to deep thinking, couldn't help thinking about the root cause behind it.
The Ice Clan, in fact, cannot be counted among the seven major tribes, and is even weaker than the Meizu, the weakest of the seven tribes.In order to find a place to survive in this troubled world, the Ice Clan had to rely on the powerful Xi Clan for a long time as a delivery place for their labor and raw materials.
As for the reason Yan Haoling said, it wasn't all to change this oppressed state.Even if the assassin succeeded in killing Yan Haoling, it would not change the relationship between the two clans. On the contrary, because of the emperor's anger at being assassinated, it is very likely that the Xi clan would retaliate even more tragically.It doesn't take too much effort for the world-famous iron cavalry of the Xi clan to flatten a small subsidiary country.
So this assassination is not like a battle between clans, but it seems to be aimed at Yan Haoling herself.At this moment, there is only one reason that can cause the Ice Race royal family to be so disgusted——
Marriage.
Speaking of marriage is not entirely true. In the past dynasties, the Ice Clan will always send the royal women who have reached the age of marriage to the Xi Clan, but after these countless beautiful and youthful women enter the Xi Clan Palace, they are like a fish that has sunk in the sea. The waves are like waves, and there is no more news.Not to mention the main concubine, even the partial concubine, there has never been a single one.
Such a weird custom is not so much for the two clans to repair each other and exchange in-laws, it is better to say that it is a forced dedication of the Ice Clan.The royal woman who was originally a high-ranking woman in her own clan was just reduced to a plaything in the end.
I don't know if it is due to outright disgust, but in the past ten years, not a single girl was born in the royal family of the ice clan.Of course, there is another theory that the royal family of the ice tribe hid all the newborn girls, or sent them out of the palace to be adopted by ordinary people, or simply concealed their gender and raised them as boys.
It's just that Yan Haoling himself is not interested in any of these two guesses. What caused the current state of the Ice Race is simply not in the scope of his concern.So when the diplomatic envoys reported the matter in embarrassment and helplessness in the main hall of the Xi Clan's palace, Yan Haoling hardly responded, but replied calmly——
"It doesn't have to be a woman, there is really no one else, so you can come, Qi Lin."
The envoy's expression changed drastically on the spot.Not only him, but even the princes and ministers of the Xi clan who witnessed this scene on the spot couldn't help but look sideways at their king.Yan Haoling's freewheeling and arrogant personality is quite famous among the seven clans, but everyone never expected to reach such a point.
This is no longer a demonstration by a big country against a dependent country within an appropriate range, and it has completely constituted a serious provocation.No one can suppress the anger in their hearts after hearing these words.This kind of anger has nothing to do with strength, it is completely an instinctive feeling that one's dignity has been trampled upon.
Who is Qilin?
It is none other than the King of the Ice Clan.
The former Ice Clan king died young and failed to have a son or half heir. The posthumous son conceived by the main concubine is undoubtedly the heir to the throne.Just from the moment he was born, the infant Qi Lin ascended to the highest throne of the Ice Tribe.Now, at the age of [-], Yu Lin has begun to slowly take back the power that should belong to him, and the bearing and demeanor he displayed is also known as a rare thing in the Ice Clan in a century. They were also willing to return the imperial power.
Such a character can be said to be a hope shared by all the people of the Ice Race.However, Yan Haoling said at this moment that she would bring her into the palace?
No one can bear this tone.
Holding on to the last glimmer of hope, the envoy asked the last question, not only his lips, but his whole body was trembling, his voice was extremely broken, "Your Majesty, but... are you joking with your subordinates?" I thought this was all I could say so far The most tactful sentence, combined with a few dry laughs, his expression was really uglier than crying.
Yan Haoling only half-supported her chin, obviously there was a step to ease the atmosphere, but he didn't intend to go down here at all. "Whether you are joking or not is up to you, Yu Lin, you can just take the original words back home."
At that time, this incident was really a big deal. Although Yulin did not give any answer for a long time, and there was no substantive conflict between the two clans, but at the time in the main hall, Yan Haoling said a few short words The words have revealed many things.
His tough attitude, arrogant language, and domineering behavior have fully demonstrated the ambition of this young king not to put the world in his eyes.
After hearing this news, those with a little foresight already had a premonition that the troubled times will become even more chaotic, and the sky above their heads has already changed color in horror.
