Chapter 292 Promise
"You're so naΓ―ve. Xiao Yichen shook his head with a smile, sighed a little helplessly and said: "The king has the difficulties of the king, even if one day, my father really wants to use the knife against this king, to be honest, I will not blame him." Since the day he embarked on the road of commanding the Xingchen Army, this king has thought very clearly, when all the responsibilities belonging to this king are completed, if he can still be safe, then he will hand over Fuhu, remove all his duties, and please return to the fiefdom to recuperate, and be an idle prince from now on. It's a pity ......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Yichen shook his head slightly with some self-deprecation, turned to the other side and walked slowly, his expression gloomy as he paced.
"Unfortunately, there are many things that are not what the king originally thought. Xiao Yichen looked back at Yu Xiaoxiang with a smile, and said calmly: "When this king joined the Xingchen Army, the Xingchen Army was like a mess. The so-called army, the so-called defending the country, and the so-called meritorious service, those are all legendary things. The top of the army are all the children of nobles who came to gild. These people, fighting? haha, I'm afraid what is a bloody battle, they are all seen in ancient books. Three ship groups, besieging one and a half ship groups of Donghu State, were beaten and lost their armor, ran all the way, returned to Shengjing and swore that Donghu sent seven ship groups, they fought and retreated! It is such a group of people who are in control, the most elite armed force of the empire!
It took the king twenty years to remove the tumors in the Star Army one by one, and then he began to 'cultivate his own power' in the mouth of the world. Now, the superintendents, deputy superintendents, and staff commanders of the seven major ship groups are all drawn up by this king. Just like General Gongsun Zhan, the commander of the Dragon's Tooth Ship Group, he was unwilling and didn't know how to meet the horse, and now he is known as the 'Imperial Fang', the victorious general, was surrendered again and again, and went to a small planet on the border to serve as the city gate official in the proverb. Do you say it's ridiculous, or is it sad?
It is also like guarding the Thunder Fortress, in the front line of resisting the White Wa people, the commander of the Panlong Ship Group Commander Xu Rong, this person has a steady temperament, thinks a lot and says little, and no one can reach him in the stars in the defensive battle. Even when the White Wa people heard his great name, they would respectfully call out 'Imperial Rock'! Such a talent, but in the position of squadron-level thousand-commander who commanded only 600 starships, he had been in office for eighty years!
There are countless people like this in the Star Army. At best, the king promoted these generals and handsome talents to high positions, which naturally greatly enhanced the imperial army. But in the worst place, people have feelings, whether it is the grace of knowing the situation, or the moving of setting things right, in short, they will always remember the good of this king, and they will naturally follow the side of this king. To put it mildly, one of the king's decrees is even more effective in the army than the decrees. So much, you say, you are the father, what will you think?"
Yu Xiaoxiang, who had always listened silently, walked up to Xiao Yichen's side, gently grabbed his arm, her beautiful eyes fell on that handsome face, and said softly but firmly: "I don't know what Your Majesty thinks, but I know very well that the man in front of me has exhausted all his efforts for the sake of his motherland, and everything he has done has no one to say for a reason." Wise, resolute, loyal, brave, and so on, I believe that all the people in the world, when they mention you, will use all the compliments they can think of, which are not obtained by your pretense, but by what you do. If you want, you can always walk out of the main hall and look at the monuments outside that go straight to the sky. Not to mention that you have done so much, even if I wanted to read them all, it took me a few days, and my raised neck felt like it was about to break. Isn't this worthy of your pride, pride, arrogance, and carelessness? Just as your subordinates trust you, I trust you too. I believe that Your Majesty must have trusted you so much, so even so, he is still willing to hand over the Double Tiger Talisman that can mobilize all military strength to you for safekeeping. Isn't this the greatest trust and love of Your Majesty?"
"Silly girl......" The warmth in her eyes surged, Xiao Yichen reached out and hugged the small body into his arms, wrapped his arms around the somewhat hot delicate body, and said softly: "This king promises you that as long as you stay by this king's side for a day, you will use all means to protect your safety." β
"Well, people believe in you. At first, there was still a little shy little beauty, but at this moment she suppressed the shyness in her heart, a more and more sweet and moving smile appeared on her cheeks, and the outstretched jade arm slowly hugged the tiger waist of the man in front of her, as if for the first time she really felt that this embrace was so safe and warm.

"Third brother, third brother~~~"
Xiao Feixing's shout interrupted Xiao Yichen, who was sitting on the desk to check the latest report.
Raising his head and looking at his younger brother who was striding into the hall, Xiao Yichen said directly: "How is it?
"You are simply a god! Although I have seen your 'miracles' many times, but this time I still can't help but say, third brother, you really don't know the ability of prophets?" The man who searched for Xiao Yichen's figure instantly pounced in front of him, lying directly on the desk, and said with excitement on his face: "I got it, the slut who released the poison is really a person from Sanssouci Palace." And, you certainly can't guess who she is. β
"It's a concubine's personal bride maid, right?" Xiao Yichen asked with an indifferent smile.
"I'm going!" Xiao Feixing straightened up instantly, slapped the table, raised his hand and shouted at Xiao Yichen's nose: "Tell me, where are you running from?!"
"You're itching again, aren't you? Xiao Yichen opened it angrily and pointed at his finger.
"Hehe, let's have fun, third brother, don't you always say that the combination of work and rest is the king. After Xiao Feixing finished speaking with a hippie smile, he directly grabbed the teacup next to Xiao Yichen and poured it into his mouth, then his eyes lit up and said: "Third brother, what kind of tea, although the taste is a little strange, but it quenches your thirst." β
"Xiang'er's new bubble method. Okay, hurry up and get down to business, the man has nothing to say. After Xiao Yichen replied casually, he immediately began to ask.
"Hey......" Xiao Feixing shook his head, and then said helplessly: "The slut said the general thing, but the problem is that she said that she didn't know what kind of poison it was, and she didn't know what the antidote was." Now, I'm afraid I'm going to lose hope again. β
Raising his hand and touching his chin, after closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, Xiao Yichen got up and said, "Go, enter the palace." That woman is lying!"
