บท 679: Control the Emperor and Command the Nobles (2)

"The second option is that if you are unwilling to cooperate, I will imprison you and threaten the Emperor with Prince Long Yue's life. Be honorable guests or be prisoners. Your choice." Shen Yanxiao folded her arms in front of her chest, remaining calm and composed as she stared at Pei Yuan.

It was up to Pei Yuan to choose the options presented before him.

Pei Yuan was well aware that if he refused to cooperate, his and Prince Long Yue's safety would not be guaranteed. Besides, it would be unwise to allow Shen Yanxiao to confront the Emperor. When the five great aristocrat families cooperated, not even the Emperor could win.

Pei Yuan heaved a sigh. "I will do as you tell me. I just hope you can keep your promise and not treat Prince Long Yue unfairly."

Those who adapt their actions to the times are wise. Shen Yanxiao preferred this kind of wise man.

"Do not worry. I always walk the talk."
