Chapter 217 (1/2)

Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin nodded and agreed with the emperor's idea. Gu Zetian's purpose was clear. For a moment, he was confused by the emperor's plan. He thought Nangong Lin had reached an alliance with the emperor and wanted to deal with him, so he decided to start first.

He had many eyes and ears in the palace. He inquired about the agreement between the emperor and Nangong Lin about using wooden colored beads. He felt that the wooden colored beads were valuable. He wanted to use them as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Nangong Lin. he had to say that this move was really clever. He understood the situation and seized other people's weaknesses to attack.

If Mu Caizhu is really in the hands of Gu Zetian, Yan Xiaoxi and Nangong Lin will become very embarrassed. All they do is for mu Caizhu. Mu Caizhu is no longer in the hands of the emperor. They have no reason to continue to help the North moon country.

Unwilling to get involved in the imperial power struggle of other countries, they are also deeply involved. What they have to do now is to get the wood color bead and retreat.

”Isn't this what the emperor wants to see?” a joking smile appeared at the corners of Nangong Lin's mouth. The emperor announced that Yan Xiaoxi was the princess of the moon at the banquet. He had expected Gu Zetian to take action.

The only thing he didn't expect was that Gu Zetian would pay attention to Mu Caizhu, which made his hard work fall short. Without Mu Caizhu in front of Nangong Lin, even if he was an emperor respected by tens of thousands of people, Nangong Lin wouldn't give him half of his courtesy and help him.

”The theft of wooden colored beads means that I didn't protect them well, and I absolutely didn't have half a point to do the right thing with Lord Lin. we are all smart people, and sometimes we need to pretend to be confused and play charades.

”Lord Lin, it's useless for us to continue our discussion. We might as well discuss how to deal with Gu Zetian and how to get back the wooden colored beads.” beiboxi suggested.

”Does the prince want to cooperate with the king?” Nangong Lin sneered, thinking that beiboxi's words were the funniest joke he had ever heard.

The huge imperial palace of the North moon country can't even protect the treasure of the country. How can he trust them?

”This is not the south water country. Lord Lin thinks he can fight against Gu Zetian alone.” beiboxi believes in Nangong Lin's ability and Gu Zetian's power and mind. In terms of wisdom and strategy, both of them are equal. A strong dragon can't fight a local snake. Nangong Lin doesn't have an advantage no matter how you look at it.

Over the years, he has stood still. He wants to cultivate power and doesn't want to act rashly. Now is the most appropriate time. He has five levels of assurance and Nangong Lin's help. There is no doubt that he will win the battle.

”Does the prince think he is qualified to cooperate with me?” Nangong Lin never cooperates with useless people. During this time, he also knows something about the situation of Beiyue country. He admires the tolerance of the emperor's father and son. He has endured humiliation and heavy burdens for many years in order to give Gu Zetian a fatal blow.

If he hadn't lost the wooden colored beads, he wouldn't mind helping.

”Lord Lin, don't deceive people too much.” the emperor clenched his hands and looked at Nangong Lin angrily.

”The emperor thinks I can talk to you kindly after losing the king's things?” Nangong Lin's tone was cold and powerful.

Beiboxi gave the emperor a look, wanted him to calm down, opened his mouth and advised him, ”Lord Lin, don't fall into the trap of Gu Zetian. Isn't he just trying to see this scene when he stole the wooden colored beads? How can you not understand so smart?”

”Of course, I understand. The crown prince also said that the wood color beads are in Gu Zetian's hand. Why should I give up close and seek far to cooperate with you and not choose Gu Zetian? It makes no difference to me, doesn't it?” Nangong Lin asked.

These words blocked beiboxi silent. What he said was reasonable. They didn't hand over the wood color beads as promised. Nangong Lin was understandably angry.

Yan Xiaoxi stood in the same place without saying a word and silently supported every decision made by Nangong Lin. she and he had already reached the point of heart to heart. For many things, only one look can read each other's heart.
