Happy Emperor

Chapter 148 Traitor

"Now, the ten cities and fifty counties of Liaoan Province all support Governor Tang Bo as the governor of Liaoan Province. It was Batu Da who abdicated this position himself. Has Your Majesty let down the hundreds of officials in Liaoan Province?"

Lu Jianyan stood forward and walked in front of Lin Tian.

With a confident look, he glanced at everyone present.

"Lu Jianyan, are you threatening His Majesty?"

An Bilie, who was standing by, slammed the table and stood up, angrily speaking to Lu Jianyan.

Lin Tian's expression didn't change at all, he just looked at Lu Jianyan coldly.

When he arrived in Longfeng County, he had already guessed the situation in Liaoan Province.

The reason why Lu Jianyan said it was just to verify his own thoughts.

"I dare not threaten Your Majesty. It's just that Your Majesty issued the letter, and I, as a loyal minister, spoke the truth. I don't want some people to dare to act without taking responsibility."

Lu Jianyan narrowed his eyes and looked at An Bilie, threateningly.

The An family has the evidence to assassinate Emperor Li in their hands.

This is also the main reason why he did not leave Anfeng City and escape today.

"Master Lu, I have to interrupt you."

Li Zuo, who had been silent until now, stood up and bowed to Emperor Li beside him.

Then he said, "This old minister and Admiral An Xia, the old general, have been in charge of the military and political affairs of Anfeng City for many years. Although we have not made any contributions over the years, we have also made no mistakes."

"As for who will be the governor of Liaoan Province, although I covet that position, as long as Your Majesty gives the order, I will certainly do my best."

"And the ten cities in Liaoan Province you mentioned all support Lord Tang, and our Anfeng City is not among them."

"you......"

Lu Jianyan did not expect that Li Zuo would immediately come out and express his position.

This old guy had tacitly agreed to Tang Bo becoming the governor of Liaoan Province, so he didn't take action against him.

"Hmph!" Lu Jianyan snorted coldly, then sneered, "Okay, even if we throw away Anfeng City, we still need the support of the nine cities for Lord Tang Bo."

"An Bilie, bring that fat man in to me."

Lin Tian sneered and gave instructions to An Bilie beside him.

An Bilie understood what he meant and immediately went out and pushed in a fat man who was tied up.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. I will never dream of becoming an official again. I can tell you anything you want to know..."

The fat man who was pushed in had his eyes blindfolded. The moment An Bilie took off his blindfold, he knelt beside Lin Tian and cried for help.

This person was none other than Li Se, the prefect of Longfeng County who had only been in office for a few days.

At this moment, he no longer had the majestic and wealthy appearance he had before. He was covered in mud and exuded a foul smell.

When Lu Jianyan saw the person coming in, he immediately became panicked.

He sat down immediately and turned his head to the side casually, not wanting to be seen by Li Se.

Although Lu Jianyan tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, Lin Tian, ​​who had been watching him for a long time, noticed some clues.

"Why is Lu Jianyan so afraid that Li Se will recognize him?"

Lin Tian thought to himself, "Could it be that he is still from the State of Zhao?"

Otherwise, it would be normal for him, the Governor of Ontario, to know Li Se. There is no need to hide it like this!

"Longfeng County is no longer among the ten cities you mentioned."

An Bilie sneered and said to Lu Jianyan.

“Hey, you’re not…”

Li Se also noticed Lu Jianyan who turned his head to the side in his seat at this time, "Who are you...?"

"Who told you to move around?"

When An Bilie saw Li Se trying to stand up and walk to Lu Jianyan, he immediately pushed him to the ground again.

"An Bilie, don't be so rude. Li Se is, after all, a 'distinguished guest' of Zhao!"

Lin Tian deliberately smiled and said, "Isn't it okay for me to get to know some of my acquaintances here?"

"What? He's from Zhao!"

An Xia immediately stood up and glared at Li Se, who was kneeling on the ground, with an angry face.

Back then, they fought the most fiercely with the State of Zhao, and most of their sons and daughters in the An family died in the war with the State of Zhao.

When he heard that the fat man in front of him was actually from Zhao, his temper was immediately ignited.

He stepped forward and was about to end Li Se's life.

Li Se was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly and dared not to identify Lu Jianyan again.

Fortunately, Lin Tian reacted quickly and grabbed An Xia.

"Old General, don't worry. This 'distinguished guest' seems to be acquainted with one of us!"

Lin Tian looked at An Xia with a faint smile, and glanced at Lu Jianyan who lowered his head.

An Xia was not a fool, so he naturally knew what Emperor Li meant.

Moreover, even if he did not understand what Emperor Li was secretly referring to, it would be extremely difficult for him to take a step forward at this moment.

He didn't expect that Emperor Li, despite his seemingly thin body, could burst out with such power in his hands.

And it seems that Emperor Li has not yet used his full strength.

If it weren't for the slight pain in the arm that was grabbed, An Xia would have begun to doubt whether she was dreaming.

The last time he was captured and unable to move was during the reign of Emperor Gaozu, when he first arrived at the barracks and saw the already adult King Pingdong.

At that time, he was like a newborn calf that was not afraid of a tiger. He relied on his youth and did not submit to the Prince of Pingdong who was just a prince.

The two men got into a fight over some trivial matter. He was deeply impressed by that incident. If Emperor Gaozu and his father had not come over later, he would probably have been beaten to death by King Pingdong.

"My dear, why are you suddenly silent? Are you not talkative?"

Lin Tian walked up to Lu Jianyan and grabbed him by the head.

Feeling pain, Lu Jianyan turned his face towards Li Se who was kneeling on the ground, following the direction of Lin Tian's hand.

"Lu...Brother Lu. Is it really you?"

Li Se felt like he had found a lifeline. He completely ignored Lu Jianyan's constant blinking to signal him not to recognize him, and cried with snot and tears, "Brother Lu, please plead for me in front of the emperor because my sister has been so kind to you."

"Bullshit, I don't know Yourong, you fucking ......"

Lu Jianyan spoke the truth in a hurry and immediately shut up.

I secretly hope that Emperor Li doesn't know who Yourong is.

"Oh, Lord Lu's connections are even wider than mine. He even knows Miss Yourong. I hope I can introduce her to him in the future."

Lin Tian released his hand and asked Lu Jianyan coldly.

"Who is Yourong?"

An Xia asked with a confused look on her face.

Li Zuo and Duan Chengming also looked at Emperor Li at the same time.

"Yourong is Li Se's sister, from the Zhao State of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance's Misty Rain Pavilion, and also..."

An Bilie on the side whispered an explanation to the three of them.

"You're actually a f**king traitor, and a running dog of the Zhao Kingdom!"

An Xia could no longer suppress the anger in her heart, and stepped forward and kicked Lu Jianyan down.

Even Li Zuo, who usually did not show his emotions, was staring at Lu Jianyan with anger on his face.

The people of Daxia at their age could not understand the hatred that the next generation felt towards Zhao.
