On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1755 Relationship Metaphor

Yan Ruyu saw Mingluo's expression change and smiled inwardly.

If you are still afraid of death, then that’s easy.

Yan Ruyu drank her tea nonchalantly and was no longer in a hurry to interrogate him.

The clear heart was hung up in the air - buried in the ground, was he really going to be killed?

She lowered her eyes and thought quickly. From the moment she stepped into the territory of the Li Dynasty, she was ready to die. But now...

Is she really going to die? She is still young and has so many years left, and she is going to die?

Huo Changhe could also see that this was the difference between secret guards and spies. Secret guards were similar to death squads, loyal and rarely betrayed, but it was hard to say about spies.

The spies are also carefully trained, and they are taught simple skills like disguise and accent. Of course, there are also some who are proficient in them, such as Bei Bei and Ming Liao in front of us.

Huo Changhe judged her identity from her clear reaction and whispered a few words to Yan Ruyu.

The two of them talked in low voices, which made Ming Liao even more anxious.

"Princess," she couldn't help asking, "how did you recognize me?"

Yan Ruyu glanced at her and said, "You are very smart and bold, but you are not qualified to ask this princess."

Ming Liao blushed: "I...what do you want to know? I can..."

The man outside the pass was surprised: "What are you going to do?"

Huo Changhe waved his hand, and Yinding took the man outside the pass away. The man stared at him intently.

"If you dare to betray me, the master will not let you go!"

He was dragged away, and Mingluo closed his eyes slightly. When he opened them again, he had made up his mind.

"I am from Dasang. I came to Li Dynasty three years ago and came to Youcheng a year ago."

Dasang, Yan Ruyu heard from Huo Changhe that it was an inconspicuous small country. It rarely had direct conflicts with Li Chao. After all, there was a big gap in national strength. If it was provoked, it would not be able to win and might even anger Li Chao.

Especially since the ones guarding Shencheng before were Huo Changhe and his son. If they were provoked, it would not be impossible for them to write a letter and march straight in to destroy it.

Because Huo Changhe only mentioned it when talking about Dacheng and didn't emphasize it, Yan Ruyu didn't take it too seriously.

Hearing Dasang at this time, he couldn't help but look at Huo Changhe.

Huo Changhe also frowned slightly, a little surprised by this answer.

I thought it was someone from Dacheng again, because Mingli's accent was 80% similar to Youcheng's, but the ending syllables of each sentence still had a bit of Dacheng's accent.

Ordinary people couldn't hear it, but Huo Changhe had been at the border for many years and had had countless dealings with Dacheng. He had been interrogated countless times by Dacheng's spies, so naturally he couldn't hide it.

Unexpectedly, he was from Dasan.

However, Huo Changhe still had doubts, wondering if this woman was cunning and was not deliberately framing him.

"Da Sang and our dynasty rarely have conflicts. Although our dynasty is a big country, we have never oppressed Da Sang. The trade is carried out normally and there has never been any special treatment."

"Da Sang spies are rare even in Shencheng, let alone Youcheng. You'd better think it over before you speak."

Ming Liao lowered his head: "I know that the prince is suspicious of me, but I can prove it."

She raised her head and looked at Huo Changhe: "If Your Majesty doesn't believe me, you can let that man bleed a little."

Yan Ruyu: “???” What kind of a weird operation is this, she is trying to prove herself by shedding other people’s blood?

Huo Changhe raised his eyebrows slightly: "You mean..."

"Yes, Your Majesty, you will know once you try it."

Huo Changhe ordered: "Go prepare the silver ingots."

"Yes."

Yinding turned and left. When Yan Ruyu saw that Huo Changhe actually agreed, she knew it was not as simple as she had thought.

"Go on."

Ming Liao continued, "In fact, we didn't want to come either. The king didn't agree at all. It was... the regent who asked us to come. Before we came, the king didn't know about it. As for whether he knows about it now or not, I don't know."

"When we report a situation, we report it directly to the Regent."

Yan Ruyu listened patiently, thinking that the royal families of various countries, from ancient times to the present, from China to abroad, the royal stories are all wonderful.

There must be an untold story between the king and the regent in Daesang.

Huo Changhe seemed to know what she was thinking. He looked at her and indicated that he would tell her later.

"Why are you here? Don't tell me that you are plotting against my territory."

"We dare not," Ming Liao said quickly, "We just want to take some money and take away some beautiful women."

"That's all?" Huo Changhe's voice suddenly turned cold. "My dynasty's money and my dynasty's people are not something you can take at will. You're just paying that! How dare you!"

Mingliao was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground, not daring to say anything more.

Huo Changhe was still furious. How could he deal with such a person without causing bloodshed?

"Someone, drag her away and give her thirty slaps first!"

"Yes!"

Mingluo's face turned pale and he wanted to beg for mercy, but before he could say a word, he was dragged away.

There were sounds outside, and screams were heard one after another.

Huo Changhe's face was gloomy and he was very angry.

Yan Ruyu filled his tea cup and said, "This person is abominable. Your Majesty, you don't need to get angry with her. Just find out the truth and hold her accountable directly."

Huo Changhe suppressed his temper and took a sip of tea: "Yu'er, you don't know. Although Dasang is small, it can survive in the cracks for a reason. It is closer to Dacheng, and half of the border land borders Dacheng."

"Although the previous conflict with Li Chao was not direct, it was also a covert sabotage, most likely under the instructions of Dacheng."

Yan Ruyu listened and thought to herself, this relationship…why does it sound so much like that of so-and-so and that so-and-so?

"Isn't that just a lackey, little brother?"

Huo Changhe was stunned and couldn't help laughing out loud, and all his anger disappeared.

"Yes, you are absolutely right. This metaphor is well put."

Huo Changhe laughed and continued, "Although Dasang is a small country, it has many mineral resources, especially iron ore. This is why Dacheng is on good terms with it."

Yan Ruyu nodded: "A weak country has no diplomacy. If it does, it must be because someone is plotting against it. I'm sure Da Sang is helpless."

"How can such a small country be called Dasang? Really, are they afraid that others don't know how small it is?"

Huo Changhe couldn't help laughing again: "That's right, Yu'er said that a weak country has no diplomacy, this is a very reasonable statement."

"So, I suspect that the spies sent by Da Sang this time were secretly pushed by someone."

"This was not done by Dacheng, but it must have been done by Dacheng," Yan Ruyu asked again, "She just said she wanted to test the man's blood, what does that mean?"

"Just now I said that there are many Dasang mines and the soil is also very special. The life expectancy of their people is generally not very long. It is said that after the efforts of many of their ancestors, they found a kind of grass that can alleviate the impact of the soil, but the amount of that grass is limited, so there is a rule."

Huo Changhe looked into Yan Ruyu's dark eyes and suddenly felt guilty for a moment.

He knew Yan Ruyu's personality very well, and had long realized that in Yan Ruyu's heart, human life and laws were both important and should have inviolable dignity. Another important point was that in her cognition, men and women should be born equal.

Can this rule of Dasan be discussed?
