Chapter 50: Prelude to Yanbei
A strong wind blew up, blowing up the brocade cloth on the dragon table in Jingxiong Hall. Mo Li looked at Jingxuan kneeling in the center of the hall calmly. There was a deathly silence in the air. Suddenly he heard a crisp voice that broke the silence.
Breaking "Brother Royal."
Li Li raised his head and looked outside the hall. Yun Hui was dressed in a long red dress and a golden crown and slowly walked to the center of the hall. He glanced at Jingxuan kneeling on the ground from the corner of his eyes, cupped his hands and said, "Brother, my husband, what will happen to my husband?"
What crime was committed?”
Li Qiye laughed loudly, withdrew his sharp light, and looked at Yun Hui doubtfully, "Yun Hui, you misunderstood, Jing Xuan just asked me to say hello. I said Jing Xuan, why don't you get up quickly?"
Otherwise, Yun Hui would have thought that I was going to do something to you."
Jing Xuan shouted loudly, "Thank you, Your Majesty, long live, long live, long live." He stood up and looked at Li Moli on the dragon throne with his cold eyes quietly.
Yun Hui looked at the two of them, put her hand on Jing Xuan's arm, and smiled at Li Qiye. The atmosphere was really heavy.
Li Li narrowed his eyes slightly, and with a faint smile on his lips, he came to Jingxuan and Yunhui, looked at the two of them up and down, and stroked Yunhui's head, "Yunhui, the emperor really can't let you go, but you
Since you are married
Jingxuan, you must follow him. You can go back to Yanbei tomorrow. As for the three thousand troops and horses, they will also go back with you, but you must remember Jingxuan." At this point, Mo Li stopped and glanced at Jing
Xuan's expression, seeing the scene
Xuan remained calm, shook his head lightly, and patted his shoulder, "Jing Xuan, Xiaoxiao came here for you, and I let you go back to Yanbei because I
I once promised Uncle Yan that I would
I keep you safe. I hope you will govern Yanbei well and never have any rebellious intentions. If not." He looked at Yun Hui beside him and stared calmly into Jing Xuan's cold eyes. "If not, I will never
I will let you go."
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely keep it in my heart. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's grace." Jingxuan said as he bowed to Mo Li and lowered his head, but at this moment, his heart was as cold as ice.
It was as cold as a block, and he didn't care about anything. As long as he could return to Yanbei, there would be hope. Xiaoxiao once said that those who do great things must endure, and endure must endure. He clenched his fists, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
refracted.
Yun Hui and Jing Xuan exited Jing Xiong Hall. Looking at their increasingly blurred figures, Jing Xuan felt uneasy and worried in his heart. He sat on the dragon chair, gently held his head with his hands, and frowned slightly.
Wrinkle: "General Yan, where do you think these three thousand troops and horses should be deployed? Is it really okay to let Jingxuan go back like this?"
He had never heard Li Li say something so uncertain. General Yan was startled and frowned slightly, "Your Majesty, why don't you invite General Lin to discuss it?"
"General Lin? Uncle Yan once saved him. Back then, he risked his life to save Jingxuan. It's not appropriate to let him discuss this matter."
"Your Majesty, General Lin has indeed received favor from Prince Yan, but this General Lin is also loyal to Daxia and has made many contributions to Daxia. What plans does your Majesty have for this man?"
"Arrangement? Arrangement?" Li Li raised his head and looked ahead, "General Yan, how are our elite troops training?"
"Your Majesty, our elite troops have been training intensively. It won't be long before they will be a lion on the battlefield, shocking the entire land of China."
Mo Li smiled heartily and said, "Okay, according to my decree, General Lin's three thousand troops will follow Jingxuan back to Yanbei to ensure the safety of Yanbei. General Lin will also go with him. This person is still very interested in Daxia."
He is relatively loyal, so with him around, Jingxuan will be more restrained. He will buy more generals and let them report everything in Yanbei on a regular basis."
"Yes." General Yan lowered his head, his calm expression did not change at all, and exited Jingxiong Hall. Li Li slowly narrowed his eyes and said coldly, "Jingxuan, I hope you will not let down Uncle Yan's high expectations."
.”
The head of the Huerte family sat in the middle with a solemn expression. Looking at the three heads of the Yan family, the Zhu family and the Ai Lie family, he stood up with his round body, pointed at the three of them with his finger, and said angrily, "You guys
...If you don’t go, I will.” After saying that, he shook off his sleeves and walked forward. Zhu immediately moved forward and ran to his side.
, stopped him, and the slender figure stood in front of the Huerte family. "I said, Mr. Huerte family, why don't you understand? Your Majesty is no longer the His Majesty of the past. He is now in Daxia."
He has established a firm foothold on the throne, and if you go against him again and again, this will bring about death for yourself."
Huerte raised his arrogant head and glanced at Zhu with disdain, "What kind of people are we? The old Xia Emperor wants to give us three points, but don't forget that in the entire Great Xia, our four great clans
He has the power to make decisions. Whatever he decides, Emperor Xia must discuss it with our four great clans. And this time, that Mo Li
He actually sent Jingxuan back to Yanbei and sent him three thousand troops and horses. You...you, just let him go? Don't forget, we were the chief judges of the death of Prince Yan back then. That Jingxuan returned to Yanbei
Bei, one day he will definitely come to take revenge, and then I will see if you can sit peacefully like you are today?"
After hearing what Huerte said, the heads of the other three clans showed a trace of worry on their faces and nodded. The head of the Ailie family stood up, came to the front of Huerte, and bowed to him.
He cupped his hands and said "Hurte's family"
Your Majesty, what you said is indeed reasonable, but if this happens, His Majesty will definitely regard us as a thorn in his side and get rid of us. If Jingxuan is eradicated without anyone noticing, then our wishes will be fulfilled, and His Majesty will
He will not be angry."
Huerte looked happy and nodded happily, but Yan, who had been sitting, stood up and said, "It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate."
The three heads looked at him with puzzled expressions on their faces, "Don't forget that Jingxuan is now Princess Yunhui's husband, and he lives in Xinyue Palace. If Princess Yunhui knows that he is
Think about us, what can we do with her temper? And when His Majesty finds out, he will definitely convict us. This crime is the crime of treason."
After listening to Yan's explanation, the three of them frowned again and walked up and down the hall, mumbling, "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what should I do?"
Suddenly, a guard ran in, raised his hands to several heads of state and said, "My lords, Emperor Xia has a decree to send your lords to Jingxiong Hall to discuss matters."
"Discuss?" The four people looked at each other in confusion.
In the Xiaoyue Palace, Concubine Yan was sleeping quietly on the bed, with a faint fragrance floating in the air. Xinyue was holding a cattail leaf fan beside her, yawning from time to time, just when she was about to fall asleep.
At that time, I suddenly heard the guard outside the door shout loudly, "The Queen is getting married."
Xinyue suddenly cheered up, pushed Yan Fei, and said anxiously, "Yan Fei, Yan Fei, the Queen is here."
Concubine Yan stretched impatiently and sat up, looking ahead quietly, snorted coldly, and scolded Xinyue, "What a fuss."
Queen Airei was wearing a long red skirt and a red wide-collared top, with golden phoenixes delicately embroidered on the wide sleeves, and a golden phoenix hairpin on her head as she walked slowly step by step.
While shaking her head slightly, all the guards and maids in Xiaoyue Palace knelt on the ground to salute her, but Concubine Yan was still sitting quietly on the bed, with a sick and disdainful expression.
.
Queen Airei looked at her and sat down on the chair gracefully, "Sister Yanfei, I heard that you were sick, so I brought some medicine to relieve colds."
"Thank you so much, the Empress. Alas, my sister really can't salute the Empress."
"It doesn't matter, as long as my sister is fine."
When Concubine Yan heard this, she stretched out her slender hands to rub her temples, raised her slender eyebrows, and looked at the queen outside the gauze, "Is my sister just coming here to bring some medicine to remove the cold?"
"Of course, what do you think my sister is?" Queen Airei looked at her calmly. Although they couldn't see each other's expressions through the gauze, she could feel the arrogance of the Yan Concubine.
"Hmph...sister, do you know what the palace is saying now? Your Majesty says how much he loves this Xiaoxiao, and he will definitely be satisfied with her words. Aren't you afraid that this Xiaoxiao will threaten your position? Haha..."
Ai Lie snorted coldly, with a faint sneer at the corner of her mouth, "Sister Yan Concubine, you are worrying too much. Over the years, have your Majesty still favored few concubines? But I, Ai Lie, still live alone in this post. It seems that my sister lives alone.
It’s time to take a good rest.” After saying that, he stood up and walked towards the door.
She retracted her feet again, looked at Concubine Yan in the gauze, and said coldly, "Sister, you should think about yourself. This girl Xiaoxiao is different from other women. I'm afraid it won't be long before your Majesty comes to the Xiaoyue Palace."
There won’t be many.” After saying that, he raised his head and walked forward dignifiedly.
When Concubine Yan in the gauze heard this, she bit her lip hard, raised her hand and tore the gauze off fiercely. Her anger devoured her heart bit by bit, and she looked ahead fiercely.
Queen Airei smiled with pleasure. Se'er who was standing by saw her expression and said lightly, "My queen, you can breathe a sigh of relief now. It seems that only Miss Xiaoxiao can shock Concubine Yan."
"Xiaoxiao, I haven't seen her since she entered the palace. Let's go to Yiyue Pavilion." The maids and guards followed her and walked towards Yiyue Pavilion.
Xiaoxiao stood quietly in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside the window. Yiyue Pavilion did not have any unique scenery. Some of the flowers in the courtyard were also moved in by Mo Lirang later, but she liked standing in front of the window and watching.
She stared blankly at the scenery here. It was already afternoon, and the sunshine was extremely strong. The maid on the side walked up to her and advised, "Miss Xiaoxiao, the sunshine is too poisonous. It's better to go into the back room."
.”
Xiaoxiao turned around and looked at the little maid. She looked like she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. Her face was pure and her big eyes blinked with concern. She smiled slightly and said, "What's your name?"
name?"
"Xia Jin" the maid smiled.
"Xia Jin? What a nice name. If you change Xia to Qiu, it is the name of a female poet I like."
Xia Jin scratched his head and looked at Xiaoxiao doubtfully, "Poet? Xia Jin doesn't have that ability. Xia Jin can only comb girls' hair and dress up."
When Xiaoxiao heard this, she covered her mouth and laughed, "That's good."
Xia Jin looked at Xiaoxiao in confusion, reached out to help him into the room, picked up the cattail leaf fan on the table and fanned her. Xiaoxiao sat on the chair, maybe because she always felt sleepy in the early summer afternoon, she slowly
He closed his eyes, rested his head on his hands and fell asleep lightly.
Jin'er hurried in, sat in front of Xiaoxiao, and said to Xiaoxiao, "Jingxuan... Jingxuan has entered the palace, and he will return to Yanbei with Yunhui tomorrow."
When Xiaoxiao heard this, she opened her eyes quickly. The sleepiness she felt just now disappeared and she immediately became more awake. She said to Xia Jin, "Xia Jin, go and find some paper and pen for me."
Xia Jin bowed and said "yes" and walked to the study room.
Jin'er looked at her doubtfully. Shi Xiajin found pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Xiaoxiao wrote something on the paper. After writing, she folded the paper and put it in Jin'er's hand, "Give this to Jingxuan."
Although Jin'er was confused, when she saw Xiaoxiao's firm eyes, she seemed to understand something, got up and walked out. Looking at Jin'er's disappearing figure, Xiaoxiao's eyes showed a touch of sadness, and she murmured in her heart
