0Wu Yan's defeat had shaken the entire Great Lu Dynasty. Although it couldn't be said that the army led by Wu Yan was the entire Great Lu Dynasty, however, it was also the majority of the army led by the Great Lu Dynasty. Moreover, there was no lack of elites among them. However, it was precisely this group that had the strength. There were so many of them that they couldn't even defeat the Rebellion Army. Furthermore, they had suffered a crushing defeat. This was something that no one had expected.    

    

On the side of the Imperial Court, the Emperor was naturally furious. He wanted Wu Yan to immediately return to the capital to make a statement. As a matter of fact, he wanted to denounce Wu Yan, and Wu Yan himself was well aware of this point. Although he was experienced and had contributed a lot to the Imperial Court in the past, in addition, there was also the help of Noble Consort Wu in the Palace, and his own life. However, Minister of War's position would definitely be lost. Even his position in the Ministry of Personnel could be affected.    

    

However, it was impossible for him to not return just like that. Since the Emperor had already ordered him to return, if he didn't return... That would be disobeying the Imperial Decree, and he would be killed. Furthermore, his family was also in the capital. If he didn't return... Those families are bound to be affected.    

    

Therefore, even though he was unwilling, Wu Yan still bit the bullet and headed towards the capital. In his heart, he was already prepared to lose Minister of War's position. However... He was prepared to try his best to keep Minister's position in the Ministry of Personnel. With his connections, in addition to his methods and Imperial Concubine Wu's pillow talk, he still had some confidence in this.    

    

However, just as Minister Wu rushed to the outer perimeter of the capital and was about to enter the city... The person he left behind in the capital sent a message saying: His Majesty knew that he had been in close contact with the messenger of the Fengjue Country, and had even secretly colluded with the messenger of the Fengjue Country.    

    

Wu Yan immediately felt that something bad was about to happen.    

    

He had indeed been in close contact with the messenger of the Fengjue Country. But... It was all for the sake of negotiations. He believed that the Emperor must have known about this situation before this. Although he would be a little unhappy, he could understand.    

    

However, Wu Yan did not agree to the harsh conditions of the envoy of the Fengjue Country before this. He only wanted to maintain a good relationship with the messenger of the Fengjue Country, which would help him gain more control of the situation in the future. Even if he had any intentions of colluding with the emissary, he did not carry it out. Therefore, the emperor now knew that he had colluded with the emissary of the Fengjue Country. That must be a lie. Someone must have taken advantage of the moment when he was defeated. He said bad things about himself in front of the king and deliberately said that.    

    

More importantly, Wu Yan had always known that the Emperor would marry Princess Qi to the Fengjue Country. He had always felt guilty. Now, if he knew that he had tried his best to facilitate the marriage, if he had even suggested this idea to the messenger of the Fengjue Country... Then... He would definitely blame him. At that time, even if it was because of his contributions to the Imperial Court... His Majesty had always trusted me. In such a furious situation... He would definitely be in danger. If there were a few more people who would attack him at this moment... If he could control a few of his black materials, then he wouldn't just lose Minister of War. The position of Minister in the Ministry of Personnel would most likely not be able to be preserved. Furthermore, his own life was in danger!    

    

Wu Yan, who had been in the government for many years, immediately realized the danger he was in. He immediately stopped and did not rush back to the capital. Instead, he asked the people who stayed in the capital to carefully inquire about the news. In addition, he also let Noble Consort Wu's side also investigate the Emperor's thoughts from the side.    

    

After all, Wu Yan had been in the Bureau of Personnel for many years, Minister. He still had some connections. In addition to Noble Consort Wu's hard work, so he very quickly obtained more useful information.    

    

His Majesty indeed knew about the matter of the marriage proposal he had proposed to the envoy of the Fengjue Country. This was the thing that made His Majesty the Emperor the most furious. After all, the one who was married off was his most beloved younger sister. Furthermore, the one who was married off was his most beloved younger sister. It was a very shameful thing to marry a distant relative. The king had always regarded it as a great humiliation. Now, he knew that this matter was brought up by Wu Yan first. It wasn't the Fengjue Country's messenger who thought of this. How could this not make him angry? Angry?    

    

At this moment, someone went to report him to the Emperor. It was said that during the period of time when the messenger of the Fengjue Country was in the capital, Wu Yan and the messenger of the Fengjue Country had come too many times. Furthermore, they had also secretly reached an agreement with them. After revealing the bottom line of the Great Lu Dynasty's negotiations, the emissaries of the Fengjue Country... During the negotiations, they were full of confidence and had the upper hand.    

    

When the Emperor found out about this, he was naturally even angrier. If it was in the past, there was someone who didn't say anything about Wu Yan in front of him. He might not believe it, or rather, he would never believe it. Because, he had always trusted Wu Yan. However, he was currently in a state of fury. Furthermore... He had already known about Wu Yan's betrayal. He naturally believed it when he heard the news.    

    

With these things, the fury of the king towards Wu Yan... It wasn't just him who lost the battle. Of course, winning the battle was also a huge factor, and when all these factors were added together, it had made him very disappointed in Wu Yan. He even hated him. Then, what awaited Wu Yan when he returned to the capital... It wouldn't end well for him.    

    

After learning of this news, Wu Yan was shocked. Currently, he wasn't thinking about losing Minister of War's position anymore. This was already a certainty. What he needed to worry about now was... It was his life. Under the current circumstances, it would be very difficult for him to keep his life.    

    

What should he do?    

    

Wu Yan was so anxious that he stomped on the ground. It was obvious now. If he went back, he would be courting death. However, if he didn't go back... It was also impossible. His Majesty the Emperor would still issue an order to arrest him. If he didn't go back, he would die. Wu Yan could feel it. He was already at the end of his rope.    

    

In a moment of desperation, Wu Yan thought of a way, and that was to kill the Emperor!    

    

Under such circumstances, only when the Emperor died could he be safe. After all, he was still the Minister of Personnel, Minister, who was also Minister of War. Once the Emperor died... He was the most powerful person in the entire Great Lu Dynasty. Who could convict him?    

    

If it was in the past, Wu Yan wouldn't dare to have such thoughts. Although he had a strong desire for power, he knew that this was a matter of killing the head. He couldn't let his thoughts run wild. Besides, he had already gained the trust of the Emperor. There was no need to have such thoughts.    

    

However, it was different now. He was already in a hopeless situation and had no way out.
