After stepping on all the noble families, the empress asked me to marry her?

Chapter 326: Detained, not killed, but killed
"absurd!"

Upon seeing this scene, an old scholar of the time began to scold.

"This is truly outrageous!"

"What kind of reason is this? It's rude and ignorant!"

This person is Guo Baoyi, the old tutor of Chengguo in those days.

He was a grand scholar who had followed the late emperor and was also a giant in the early literary world of Chengguo. Later, he retired to the second line due to his old age, which led to Wang Qianhe's ascension to the throne.

If this old gentleman continued to interfere in state affairs, even Wang Qianhe would have no say. However, the current party struggles are not actually fierce, at least on the surface.

Because the old tutor was still alive at that time.

As long as he is sitting here, no one else can cause any trouble.

Guo Baoyi, who had retired as a Grand Secretary, was extremely indignant about what Chen Huaixin did during the deduction.

At this moment, he was puffing his beard and glaring, and the crutch in his hand was poking the ground hard.

"Old Master, calm down."

Wang Qianhe, Duan Zhengqing and the others all stepped forward to intervene, fearing that the old man would pass out from anger.

"I am really angry. I thought Chen Huaixin was quite shrewd and could at least control his temper. Now it seems that I was wrong about him."

Guo Baoyi's face was filled with anger and he looked heartbroken.

Although it has little to do with him, looking at his attitude, it is as if the younger generation that the other party has high hopes for has suddenly become useless.

Logically speaking, the old man cannot be seen in any of the plots being deduced.

In other words, Guo Baoyi would never live to see the emergence of Yu Kingdom, but this attitude is indeed profound enough.

"Old Master, please stop getting angry."

As they talked, Wang Qianhe and the others became much more docile.

But at this moment, Guo Baoyi couldn't listen at all. He suddenly stood up, pointed the cane in his hand to the sky, and then started cursing.

"It is really hard for a common man like me to take on such a big responsibility."

"His Majesty!"

Hearing the other party's low growl, the others quickly stepped forward to support him and help him face Ji Qingluo who was sitting on it.

"No matter what, we can't let Zhongyuan fall into this kid's hands."

"When two countries are at war, envoys should not be killed. He doesn't understand such a simple truth. The people will still suffer in the future."

Ji Qingluo's face was calm.

She was an emperor who had fought her way out of the sword and blood, and she saw everything very clearly at this moment, so naturally she would not buy into the old man's account.

"Old Master, calm down."

"This is not an envoy, this is a spy, a secret agent, a minion of the enemy country. If I were him, I would kill him without hesitation."

Guo Baoyi was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that he would be retorted.

"Even so, you should understand the principle of not killing surrendered generals."

"The reputation of killing surrendered soldiers has always been unpleasant. This is a statement that will never be repeated in a thousand years."

But Ji Qingluo still had no expression on his face.

"Old Master, calm down."

"They are not surrendered generals. Have you ever seen a surrendered general who dares to shout after being captured? Or dares to scold the emperor? Are they still prisoners?"

Guo Baoyi's eyes were wide open with anger and his whole body was trembling.

"you you……"

The next moment the old man passed out with a red face. Wang Qianhe and other ministers hurriedly helped him to the side, fearing that something might happen to him.

But Ji Qingluo didn't care at all and still looked at the sky.

She wanted to know what Chen Huaixin would do next?
……

【The Roman spy began to confess everything without being interrogated. 】

[I was worried that I might not understand clearly enough, so I explained it very seriously. 】

[“We are the palace elite specially arranged by the bishop, and we are the knight guards responsible for the security of the royal family.”]

[“Because it has been widely rumored that Yu Country is prosperous and comparable to Heaven, merchants from all over the world are staying away from home and are unwilling to return. The Pope personally sent us here to find out the truth.”]

[“Spies from other countries are coming with us.”][“We just want to act in secret.”]

[“The Emperor’s elite troops of the Yu Kingdom are truly worthy of their reputation. We dare not engage them rashly. We can only think of ways to steal intelligence.”]

[“In order to prevent any further complications, the bishop has taken over the will of the entire sect and ordered us to return within two months. This is the deadline.”]

【Chen Huaixin smiled slightly.】

[Sure enough, these guys can't sit still anymore. ]

[“Are you scared?”]

[“Lift your head and speak!”]

[Looking at the Roman spy kneeling in front of him, Chen Huaixin knew that he had overwhelmed him in terms of momentum. As long as he could carry out the plan smoothly, he could delay for a while.]

[“Scared.”]

[“His Majesty the Emperor of Yu Country is a master of unparalleled power and a mighty force that shakes the world. We are truly overestimating our own abilities. Please spare our lives.”]

【The Roman spy couldn't stop shaking all over. 】

[In his eyes, Chen Huaixin in front of him is too dangerous. ]

【Moody.】

【Decisive and ruthless in killing.】

[It is very likely that I will lose my head in the next second. ]

[“Very good, I will not kill you.”]

[“Take the information you stole earlier and return, and personally hand it over to your bishop, the royal family, and any high-level officials you can reach.”]

“Go ahead.”

[After Chen Huaixin finished speaking, he stood up, gave the other person a last meaningful look, and then left in a huff.]

[Except for one or two great inner court masters, everyone else followed and left.]

[“Your Majesty, what does this mean?”]

[“The commander of the Imperial Guards is a little confused.”]

[It’s fine if you release the person, but you also need to take away their belongings. ]

[This arrangement really took them by surprise.]

[If this spy succeeds and leaves smoothly, then what is the meaning of all the previous interrogations and intimidation? ]

[The other masters of the Imperial Palace were also puzzled. ]

[“His life is a question I set for those distant empires, and this question has no answer.”]

【Chen Huaixin had already anticipated their confusion, so he began to explain.】

[“If you take our Yu country secret back, there will be three results.”]

[“The first is that he will be suspected. If someone returns to the country and brings back intelligence, he will be killed. He will be eliminated along with the truth.”]

[“The second is that the Catholics accepted the truth, but did not dare to act rashly. Instead, they suspected that we were deliberately setting up a trap. After all, there is no room for explanation for such abnormal behavior.”]

[“Third, he is trusted. If he survives, his intelligence will be used. This will also slow down their progress, because at some distances, even if they put all their efforts into it, it will be useless.”]

[As soon as these words were spoken, the commander and others all gave a thumbs up. ]

[“Your Majesty is wise.”]

[I didn't expect their Majesty to be so thoughtful. ]

[Such thoughts and considerations are indeed rare in the world. ]

[As the saying goes, the world is a game, and one must make three calculations before making a decision. It can be seen that he already had a plan to deal with the empire. He is truly extraordinary.]

[At this time, the commander of the imperial guards suddenly realized that this direction did not seem to be the direction back to the palace, and he became curious for a moment.]

[“Your Majesty, this is not the way back to the palace. We are going to…”]

【Chen Huaixin smiled slightly.】

【“Follow me.”】

[“A private visit incognito.”]
