Chapter 230 You don’t have to teach Xiao Wang a lesson!
Seeing that the matter was resolved, the Empress Ji Yao on the dragon throne changed her serious expression, smiled, and spoke calmly.
"Princess, you have come a long way and you must have worked hard. I will hold a banquet to welcome you the day after tomorrow. Now I have ordered someone to take you to your place to rest."
Ashina didn't react much, but Yili and Huyanzhen responded to make the atmosphere less awkward.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Then Ji Yao ordered: "Come here, send the envoy to the Royal Post House."
"Yes!"
……
There were three people in one carriage, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Princess, are you still angry?"
Yili glanced at Ashina, whose face was gloomy, with a half-smile.
After leaving the palace, Ashina's face fell and he glared at Yili angrily.
"Why did you agree?"
"That evil princess is so hateful, why do we let her go so easily!"
Huyan Zhen, who had always been at odds with Yili, glanced at Yili and snorted coldly.
"Humph, I think Yi Xiang is scared!"
"We were afraid that the Eastern Zhou empress would punish us and we would all die, so in order to please her, we protected her daughter and spoke for her."
Hearing this, Ashina became even angrier and his face turned ashen.
"Yi Xiang, don't forget what my mother told me before she left!"
Yili's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said calmly, "Of course I haven't forgotten. Before leaving, the king told us to be careful on the road and not to have unnecessary conflicts with Dong Zhou. Everything should be based on peace between the two countries, and we should not provoke trouble."
"Isn't this my duty according to the king's will?"
"On the contrary, it was you, the princess, who abandoned the delegation and left the team without permission, and finally offended the princess of Dong Zhou and caused such trouble."
"Your Highness Princess, this is really inappropriate."
Ashina's face darkened when he heard Yili's words. He glared at Yili and said angrily, "You don't have to teach me a lesson!" Yili's expression calmed down a little, and he smiled humbly, "The reason why I agreed to the Queen of Eastern Zhou's decision is for the good of the princess and the king."
"Think about it, although the Princess of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is confused, she is the biological daughter of the Eastern Zhou Empress after all. If the punishment is too severe, it will inevitably make the Empress feel uncomfortable."
"Or do you think you should kill the princess to vent your anger because of your personal grudge?"
"How can it be……"
Ashina's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked a little weak.
However, she did have such thoughts in her mind.
Yili's eyes flashed indifferently, but she didn't point it out.
"Since the king's wish is for the two countries to have good relations, we naturally cannot rashly offend people to death. This is the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, not the Tibetan Rong. If we anger the Eastern Zhou Empress, we may not even be able to return."
Hearing this, Ashina glared: "She dares!"
"I have a million strong army in Zangrong, all of them are brave and good at fighting. If she dares to detain my daughter, I will ask my mother to send troops to crush her Dongzhou!"
"Princess!"
Hu Yanzhen's heart skipped a beat and he quickly covered Ashina's mouth to prevent her from spreading such outrageous words and causing big trouble.
Yili frowned slightly: "Princess, be careful, there are ears on the other side of the wall."
Ashina was slightly stunned, curled his lips and hummed softly.
"What are you afraid of~"
Yiliwei said seriously: "In short, we must be careful in everything and not take the lead in anything, especially the general."
Hu Yanzhen was slightly stunned, and asked with a bit of temper: "What's wrong with this general?"
Yili smiled and said, "General, you'd better control your temper. If you offend others, it will be a mess."
Hu Yanzhen wanted to refute but was choked and turned his head away.
"Humph!"
Probably knowing that his personality could easily offend people, Yili smiled faintly and said nothing.
