"So, why have you invited me to such a place" Yuan Shao straight to the main point, he's not someone who likes went roundabout ways and most of all he didn't comfortable with this place.

Yang Qiong Yan smiles without care, he lifts the winecup than take a sips before he starts "You very straightforward person aren't you General Yuan, but so be it, is not like I hated it will save us the time" he put down the wine cup than he lift his head "I can make Qian Qi Wei responsible for what happened with you're Mother" ​​

Yang Qiong Yang make Yuan Shao face become stiffed but than he composed himself "Why do you mean…" he frowned at Yang Qiong Yang. He didn't know what Yang Qiong Yan purposed to tell him this, is he want to trap him?

Yuan Shao face remain calm he doesn't look anxious or excited he drinks his wine calmly, Yang Qiong Yan expected this he knew Is not easy to disrupt him but it doesn't matter he is not in hurry than he shifts his gaze to Zhao Qin Fong who can't hide his suspicion toward him, this time Yang Qiong Yan sneer turns out the fifth Prince is more simple-minded then he thought no wonder his faction lose in the war of throned miserably.

"Fifth prince, I could help to strengthen you're position in the Jiang Wei Kingdom and if you wanted it is not impossible to make you as the next Emperor"

Zhao Qin Feng suddenly clenched his fist and his face become dark, he stares at Yang Qiong Yan deeply "Marquis Yang this is not something you can't joke easily" he glare at him.

Yang Qiong Yan stifle "I never consider myself as a jokester" he leaned his back on the chair "Both of you running out of time, a time to protect the one you care and time to achieve what you desire," he said with low voice "But I could fulfill what you want and what you need"

"You seem very confidence," said Yuan Shao "Qian Qi Wei is the Emperor daughter, against her meaning against the Emperor and if we against the Emperor that mean you will against the whole Kingdom and if that not enough you even want to interfere the war of throne of another kingdom, Marquis Yang I'm afraid this is beyond you're capability"

Yang Qiong Yag hit his knee excitedly "You are not disappointed me, general Yuan, you are right this is a risky game but I know you don't have no other way, what happened with you're sister how could you know you its not repeated again"

Yuan Shao's faces become dark, no one knew what happened to his sister because he had covered the incident to protect his sister's reputation sadly it also make him unable to make his aunty, uncle and Qian Qi Wei responsible for what had happened.

"Don't look at me like that, It is not like I'm going to tell anyone and I don't think the fifth prince would care for a little girl's reputation in a different country isn't it" he gives meaningful gaze at Zhao Qin Feng to remain silence.

Zhao Qin Feng scoffed and drink his wine, in his situation right now the last thing he wants to do is to infuriate a famous general from other Kingdom, Yang Qiong Yan heaved "You may save her at the right time for know but next time you might not that lucky, Qian Qin Wei is a cruel woman she always feel threatened by you're late mother and you're sister is the spitting image of you're Mother, a jealous woman like Qian Qin Wei will never let you're sister live a good life and you're father…..well you know he practically useless isn't he?"

"Just tell me what you want!" Yuan Shao grit his teeth, Qian Qin Wei is a thorn in his flesh that he unable to get rid off and this what always vexed him.

"Simple, you can marry my cousin Yang Wei Lan" he said in relax manner "Normally is easier to find a good match for you're Sister to protect her but unfortunately you're sister is a wasted eventhought she's beautiful she can only be a beautiful vas, please don't be offended" he sip his wine to moisten his throat "The only person who valued her is you, but with you're position right now you wouldn't able to protect her in a long run"

"You think I need prime minister as my backer?" Yuan Shao frown deeply.

"Of course, you need to strengthen you're foothold first before you able to protect you're loved one"

"You know I don't like that stupid woman," yuan Shao said in disdain.

"You don't have to" Yang Qiong Yan shrug his shoulder than he shifted his gaze to Zhao Qin Feng who looks anxious listening where the conversation going, he didn't know why Yang Qiong Yan let him listening to this preposterous conversation, he knew who is Qian Qin Wei identity is, what Yang Qiong Yan had said can be considered as rebellion to his Kingdom but why he do that?

"You look tensed fifth prince" he smirked toward him "Do you feel worried?"

Zhao Qin Feng face turn ashen, he clenched his jaw while glaring at Yang Qiong Yan "You're business got nothing to do with me"

"You can't say that you're highness" he teased Zhao Qin Feng "Because when I say I can make you as the next Emperor I'm not joking and I do not speak carelessly" his expression becomes serious.

"I know you're kingdom situation, the crown prince is dead and the sixth Prince turn out to become a bastard and the only left candidate is you and the third Prince but you know how the third prince condition right know and you…you are not so popular don't you especially because the fall out between you and the sixth prince who turn out to be the great Long Ming" he chuckles while pouring wine from the flask elegantly.

His face turn livid everything is falling apart ever since Zhao Li Xin discarded them even His father Emperor who used to be doted him ignored him ever since and is all because of the ungrateful bastard Zhao Li Xin "Than you know Zhao Li Xin will never spared me and Zhao Yi Chen position is remain strong because of Lao Min Na, as long she remains engaged with Zhao Yi Chen no one can disturb his position" he balled his fist with helpless expression on his face.

"What if…." Yang Qiong Yan raised his long index finger with a playful smile "Lao Min Na let give the throne to you" than he shifted his gaze to Yuan Shao "And not just that he will also help you to get rid of Qian Qi Wei even if that means dethroned the Emperor himself" he smiles wickedly.

Zhao Qin Feng dumbfounded his heart beating faster he is anxious but excited at the same time, he wonders if the Marquis said is true on the contrary Yuan Shao's face becomes stern the offer is too good to refuse it make him restless and this Lao Min Na, he had seen her before.

A beautiful woman perhaps she is the most beautiful woman he ever saw but their's something about her, something that make the hair behind his neck rise.

"What do you think?" Yang Qiong Yan laugh lightly as if he was joking.

"For what cost? Don't tell me Miss Lao do this for nothing?" Yuan Shao sips his wine to calmed his heart, he can't trust Yang Qiong Yang and she definitely can't trust that Lao Min Na.

Zhao Qin Feng also awoke from his thrilled, he also understands Lao Min Na would want something from him. Yang Qiong Yang lean his back and he takes a deep breath "Simple….just you're allegiance for her"

"You want me to submitted under her?" Zhao Qin Feng said in disdained, he didn't like Lao Min Na he can't trust this woman for she has big appetited for power and great ambition that even him can't match her and that's why he came to Zhao Li Xin because he knew Zhao Li Xin would not interested with the throned and he wouldn't care with you as long you don't get in his way but Lao Min Na, can he expect the same from her?

Yang Qiong Yan open his arms nonchalantly "You have better offer, you're highness?" he mocked Zhao Qin Feng, he knew better Zhao Qin Feng have no choice, he already fall out with Zhao Li Xin he can't afford to fight with Lao Min Na either especially when the Ying clan didn't support him as much as they was.

"Miss Lao just want you to be loyal to her, she would not interfere how you rule you're Kingdom or involved in you're state policy. She only want you're support when she need it" said Yang Qiong Yan.

The two men become silent the offer from Lao Min Na is to good to resist, for Zhao Qin Feng who already pushed on the edged this offer is like the light on the end of tunnel, it does a big risk but if he could be an Emperor it would be worth it but what about Zhao Yi Chen why is she abandoned him, does she not love him anymore? He can't overlook this matter.

Meanhwile Yuan Shao is calmly drink his wine, his expression is hard to read. Yang Qiong Yan knew is harder to persuded Yuan Shao then Zhao Qin Feng but Lao Min Na remind him that is crucial to get Yuan Shao on they're side so Yang Qiong Yan didn't dare to be reckless.
