Chapter 798: Really? But I Don’t Think So
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Empress of the Northern Han had originally seen that Xuanyi was unrelated to her and had a master-disciple relationship with her Little Seven, so she was very at ease with him.
After all, such people had no children. Even if they snatched the throne, no one would inherit it.
Naturally, it would not be easy for him to have the intention to rebel.
However, it was different now. Xuanyi was actually related to the East Continent. He was even related to the East Continent’s Emperor and the Bai family, the most prosperous family in the East Continent. That would be dangerous.
“I’ve heard that you’re Bai Xuan, the little general of the Bai family who has been missing for many years. Your identity is quite surprising. It’s a little inappropriate for Little General Bai Xuan of the Bai familys army of the East Continent to be the Imperial Preceptor of our Northern Han!”
Xuanyi looked at her and said with a cold expression, “Is that so? But I don’t think so. I’ve been the Imperial Preceptor of Northern Han for so many years. I think it’s quite suitable. No one is more suitable for this position than me.”
Actually, it was not that Xuanyi could not bear to part with the position of Imperial Preceptor.
It was because the Empress of Northern Han had already gone berserk in her pursuit of immortality. She did not care about the suffering of the people of Northern Han at all.
If he did not become the Imperial Preceptor and no one else dissuaded the Empress, the lives of the Northern Han citizens would be even more difficult.
Due to the geographical location and the size of the country, Northern Han could not compare to the other countries that were rich.
The lives of the commoners were not as good as those of the other countries.
Xuanyi had been the Imperial Preceptor for so many years. How could he quit just like that?
However, what he was thinking was not what the Northern Han Empress was thinking.
In the eyes of the Northern Han Empress, he just could not bear to part with the position of Imperial Preceptor. He even had an even bigger plan.
She was already dissatisfied with him. Now, the dissatisfaction in her heart intensified.
After Xuanyi left, she hurriedly summoned the Eldest Princess, Yuwen Qin, into the palace.
“Ah Qin, you said that there’s a way to deal with Xuanyi. What is it?”
“Has the Queen Mother finally though it through?’
As the Eldest Princess of Northern Han, Yuwen Qin had always been jealous and wary of the fact that Yuwen Zhi was the Imperial Preceptor’s disciple.
She was worried that Xuanyi would help Yuwen Zhi snatch her throne,
Therefore, she had always wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of Xuanyi.
However, the Queen Mother had never hardened her heart when it came to Xuanyi. She felt that it was impossible for him to be so ambitious. She even said that Xuanyi did not have any children. What was the use of snatching that position?
Yuwen Qin rejoiced that the Queen Mother finally understood and was willing to deal with Xuanyi.
“Xuanyi has always doted on Little Seven. I think we can use Little Seven to deal with Xuanyi.”
Speaking of her Seventh Princess, the Empress was still a little reluctant since shehad doted on the little girl since she was young.
After hesitating for a moment, she said, “Is there no other way? Must we drag Little Seven into this?”
Not only did Yuwen Qin want to deal with Xuanyi this time, but she also wanted to take the opportunity to deal with her seventh sister, Yuwen Zhi.
She planned to kill two birds with one stone and eliminate her two greatest obstacles.
“l know that the Queen Mother loves Little Seven. Don’t worry, I’m just making use of the master-disciple relationship between the Imperial Preceptor and Little Seven.”
Xuanyi’s cultivation level was not low, so it was very easy for them to fail if they attacked him directly.
In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, they needed to use Yuwen Zhi to lure the person over and trap him.
The Empress thought for a while before rubbing her swollen temples. “Then do as you say! Xuanyi colluded with outsiders. He can’t be kept alive.”
Yuwen Qin lowered her head and agreed. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly..
