Chapter 121 The imperial decree must not be violated

The leader of the guards was pushed out by a guard beside him to act as their spokesperson.

"Well, Mr. Lian, I swear on behalf of my brothers that if we enter the enemy camp alone, we will not frown. There are only enemies in the enemy camp. But, the Netherworld Tower is connected to the Netherworld Hell. If you enter the hell,

Even if I am unable to survive or die, I will endure the torture of purgatory forever..."

"That's right, that's right. When the adults were talking to Ma Lei, Ji Zhi heard it outside the door. He and Ye Xuanlang have entered the first level of the eighteen levels of hell, the tongue-pulling hell. It's so miserable!"

"Yes, yes, so what if you escape by chance? Ma Lei came out, but he will still be captured by the ghosts..."

Lin Ming shouted loudly and interrupted the guards, "That's nonsense! All the talk about the underworld and hell is just a rumor."

Pei Wuyan kept his face dark, but at the end he simply closed his eyes and said coldly:

"Those who are willing to enter the Netherworld Tower with us tonight will stay. Those who are unwilling will disappear immediately before I change my mind. Dali Temple will never tolerate people who believe in superstitious rumors and are greedy for life and fear of death."

As soon as Pei Wuyan finished speaking, the smallest and youngest one turned around and ran away.

Yu Qingfeng wanted to call the person back, but felt that calling was in vain.

"You are all men, why are you not as good as a woman like me?"

"You are a famous person in Dali Temple, a sixth-grade Sizhi, or Lord Pei's... We are just guards. We still have parents, wives and children at home, and we don't want to die in a foreign land."

"Huh, it's better to die in a foreign land. Didn't the boss just say that what I'm afraid of is that I can't survive but can't die, and I will never be reincarnated in the eighteenth level of hell and experience all the tortures!"

Yu Qingfeng wanted to say something else, but the remaining eleven guards didn't give her a chance. In less than ten seconds, they all ran away.

Pei Wuyan opened his eyes and could only see the backs of the three guards who were at the end.

"Rat, if they still have the nerve to go back to Dali Temple, drive them away." Pei Wuyan said to Lian Shurong, "Don't be soft-hearted, Dali Temple does not accept waste."

"Soft-hearted? Huh, if they dare to go back, I will personally kick them out! Don't even think about getting a penny in salary." Lian Shurong angrily made a kicking motion.

Yu Qingfeng had a sad face, biting her lips and muttering, "It's just the four of us, are we still going?"

Lian Shurong suddenly turned his head towards Yu Qingfeng, "Hey, Yu Qingfeng, are you like them?"

Yu Qingfeng was already depressed enough when she saw all the guards retreating. Lian Shurong also made her angry at this time, making her even angrier and retorted directly:

"Of course not. I just think this matter should be discussed in the long term, and we should find enough manpower before we act more safely."

"Hmph, I think you are just afraid. Are you not saying with certainty that the underworld and hell do not exist at all, and everything is their illusion? If so, what is wrong with it?"

Lin Ming hurriedly smoothed things over, "Okay, okay, I understand that you are all in a bad mood. The more times like this, the less likely you are to fight among yourself..."

"I'm in a bad mood," Lian Shurong rolled his eyes at Yu Qingfeng, "Before, she dragged me into acting without my permission and completely ignored my feelings. Now she is the one who wants to enter the tower, and she is the one who is afraid of being repelled.

Humph, if it weren't for Mr. Pei, how could a mere woman sit on this sixth rank..."

"That's enough!" Pei Wuyan interrupted Lian Shurong in time.

"Look, are you trying to protect your shortcomings again?" Lian Shurong pulled Lin Ming as an ally and pointed at Pei Wuyan, "Lin Ming, I have told you a long time ago that our Lord Pei, who is exceptionally qualified to be the Minister of Dali Temple, is nepotistic.

You still don’t believe it.”

Pei Wuyan raised his eyes and looked around. This farce had already attracted a group of servants from the palace to watch from a distance.

These spectators had just enjoyed the good show of the guards of Dali Temple escaping from the battle, and now the conflict has shifted to his nepotism, and this girl is still a woman he likes.

It's really embarrassing.

"What about the four of us? The plan remains unchanged. We will enter the Netherworld Tower tonight."

Yu Qingfeng was shocked, "Master Pei, you can't just..." just for the sake of your face.

"That's enough, this matter is settled. The farce should end." After saying this, Pei Wuyan left.

Yu Qingfeng grabbed him and said, "Master Pei, even if the underworld and hell are all hallucinations, we have to be careful not to be drugged by someone with intentions, right? This is simply impossible to guard against."

"Psychedelic drugs need to be mixed with wine. Does Yu Sizhi have to drink to strengthen his courage?" Pei Wuyan asked coldly.

Yu Qingfeng slowly let go of her hand and let Pei Wuyan leave.

Lian Shurong was so proud that when he passed by Yu Qingfeng, he laughed out loud and said: "Great, solve the case quickly and return to the capital. I will never come to this ghost place again in my life."

Lin Ming walked up to Yu Qingfeng and said, "Qingfeng, don't worry, I will be with you tonight."

Yu Qingfeng stared at Lin Ming gratefully, "Master Lin, you know, I am not greedy for life and fear of death, I just want to be more secure and comprehensive. How about this, you go to King Xiaonan to discuss it, and he sends someone to join us?"

Lin Ming hesitated for a moment, "Okay, I'll give it a try, but, alas, don't have high hopes."

Yu Qingfeng returned to her room, wondering when to go to Pei Wuyan's room.

She knew that she was going into the tower tonight and she should have a good rest now, but she was so excited that she couldn't sit still and couldn't even close her eyes to rest.

Yu Qingfeng opened the window and looked at Pei Wuyan's room. She recalled the scene last night when Qi Yao knocked on the door and Pei Wuyan opened the door for her and pulled her into the room.

Although she knew that Pei Wuyan and Qi Yaoyun had no intention of recognizing the wrong person under hallucination, the thought of it still made her uncomfortable.

Yu Qingfeng had a premonition that Qi Yao would go to Pei Wuyan again, desperately trying to make Pei Wuyan responsible for her and take her back to the capital.

Although what happened last night was a misunderstanding, everyone knew that Qi Yao and Pei Wuyan were in the same room and bed together. Qi Yao took the initiative at the expense of Qing Yu. She will definitely take this initiative

use.

Just as he was thinking about it, as expected, Qi Yao appeared at the door of Pei Wuyan's room again.

Qi Yao knocked on the door, and Pei Wuyan opened the door. Qi Yao said something at the door, and Pei Wuyan let her in and closed the door.

Yu Qingfeng was so angry that she pushed the door open and headed towards Pei Wuyan's room.

Yu Qingfeng did not knock on the door in a hurry, but followed the old trick, saying that walls have ears.

She put her ear to the window and eavesdropped on the conversation between the two inside.

"Brother Wuyan, if you leave Yao'er alone, Yao'er will only die." Qi Yao said pitifully.

Yu Qingfeng rolled her eyes disdainfully.

"Your Highness, be careful. Your Highness is Princess Xiaonan. In Annan Prefecture, one person is inferior to ten thousand people. How can she die?"

"Brother Wuyan, are you still pretending to be stupid? The entire palace knows what happened last night, and it won't take long for everyone in the entire Annan Prefecture and the entire Dayong City to know. How can you let Yao'er have the face to face the world?

"

Qi Yao was sincere and choked with grievance.

"It can be clarified." Pei Wuyan said coldly, cherishing his words like gold.

"It would be okay if Brother Wuyan doesn't clarify. The more you clarify, the more shameless Yao'er will be to face the world. Do we want the whole world to know that Brother Wuyan is unwilling to take responsibility for Yao'er?"

"What do you want, Your Highness?" Pei Wuyan remained as cold as ice.

"Yao'er dare not ask for brother Wuyan's mercy. I only ask that I enter the tower with you tonight and live and die together with brother Wuyan."

Qi Yao was crying and begging for compromise, and to those who didn't know better, he sounded really compassionate.

"Aren't you afraid?" Pei Wuyan was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief.

"Don't be afraid. Yao'er believes in brother Wuyan. If you say that the underworld and hell don't exist, they don't exist. Yao'er unconditionally supports brother Wuyan's decision."

Yu Qingfeng couldn't stand listening anymore. Didn't Qi Yao make it clear that he wanted to compare with her? Someone among the spectators just now sent a message to Qi Yao.

"Master Pei!" Yu Qingfeng slammed the door vigorously.

Pei Wuyan opened the door, his face full of displeasure, "What are you doing here? You still want to persuade me?"

Yu Qingfeng walked directly past Pei Wuyan and walked directly in front of Qi Yao, reluctantly performing an inappropriate etiquette.

"Your Royal Highness, Princess Xiaonan, we are going to the tower tonight to investigate the disappearance of Ye Xuanlang. We are not there for fun, and we have no time to take care of your rich body."

Qi Yao's big almond eyes welled up with more tears, and he looked helplessly towards Pei Wuyan.

"Yu Sizhi, you have overstepped your bounds." Pei Wuyan waved his hand, "You go back first, I will discuss this matter with His Highness."

"I won't leave," Yu Qingfeng took a step forward and grabbed Pei Wuyan's hand, "Unless Mr. Pei promises Qingfeng, he will never follow His Highness for the sake of responsibility..."

"Yu Qingfeng," Pei Wuyan shook Yu Qingfeng away vigorously and interrupted with a loud shout, "You passed! You go back and prepare. We will set off after dinner."

"Wuyan, you have really changed. Didn't you say that in the past, you liked me who didn't obey you, but you liked me who had my own opinion. Why are you still treating a woman like His Highness now... You men are all the same."

Duplicity, superficiality and stupidity.”

Pei Wuyan closed his eyes, suppressed his anger, and waved his hand weakly, "You go back first, I will explain to you later."

With tears in her eyes, Yu Qingfeng reluctantly left the room.

Pei Wuyan closed the door again.

It was impossible to leave, Yu Qingfeng had to continue eavesdropping.

"Your Highness, I will definitely go into the tower to investigate tonight, and I will definitely not take His Highness there. I hope Your Highness understands. As for what happened last night, it is not up to His Highness and I to decide whether to clarify or take responsibility."

"Brother Wuyan, what you mean is that if Father gives the decree, you will..."

"The imperial edict cannot be violated. My marriage is not something I can decide on. What I can decide, and what I can give to my sweetheart, apart from a sixth-grade official title, is nothing more than the status of a concubine."

Yu Qingfeng clenched her fists. Because she couldn't see, she could only imagine Qi Yao's expression and mood after hearing these words.

Qi Yao must be so happy in his heart, and the expression on his face must be uncontrollable.

"Yao'er understands," Qi Yao's voice contained a hint of joy, "On this trip back to the capital, Yao'er will ask the prince brother to go with Yao'er to ask for permission from the father to reconcile. This is Annan Prefecture and Xiaonan.

Wang, Yao'er has had enough!"

"Divorce? I'm afraid it's not that easy, right? After all, His Majesty proposed the marriage in the first place. Now that he is asked to reverse his original decision, there must be a reason."

"Yes, what happened last night..."

"What happened last night was nothing but a scandal. Your Majesty couldn't cover it up in time, so how could you agree to Heli? I think His Highness should have given up on Heli earlier."

After Pei Wuyan finished speaking, he walked towards the door and suddenly opened the door to see off the guests.

Yu Qingfeng was so frightened that she quickly turned and left.
