Chapter 114: Anomalous
"This land west of the river is in the west of the continent, adjacent to our country, mostly grasslands and hills, the local people live by grazing, and according to this geographical situation, the local people are fierce, brave and warlike, and there have been many wars with our dynasty, it can be said that each has its own victory and defeat!" Qian Yu introduced to everyone.
Lingxi nodded, and then asked, "What about this King of Hexi?" and his second son. ā
"A few years ago, the original king of Hexi died, and there was a war in the land of Hexi, and the various tribes attacked each other, with countless casualties, and the current king of Hexi is said to be brave, brave, and victorious, and spent a few years to dominate the Hexi grassland, as for his second son, there is no news, but his eldest son is missing. Qian Yu said.
"The eldest son is missing?" Lingxi frowned, and the Qin Nu on the side looked a little unusual.
"Yes, it is said that he disappeared in a tribal war, and there is no news from many searches, so it is estimated that he died in battle!"
"So, then, the king of Hexi is also strange and pitiful, his son died at such an old age. Lingxi sighed.
"He's not pitiful, not pitiful at all!" After hearing this, the Qinnu on the side suddenly shouted loudly.
Everyone was taken aback by him, and Lingxi looked at Qin Nu with some surprise, this Qin Nu is usually gentle and elegant, and his tone is very soft when he speaks, but what happened suddenly?
"Listening to you, it seems that you know the king of Hexi, so why don't you pity him?" Qianyu thought that Qinnu might be hiding something, so he asked.
"I, I also heard from others, although the king of Hexi is tolerant of his people, but he is extremely harsh to his son, and he is a killer at all, relying on conspiracy and killing to get to his current position!" Qinu explained with a somewhat flustered expression.
"Really?" Lingxi looked at Qinnu with some confusion.
Qian Yu on the side nodded, and said: "What he said should be right, according to rumors, this tribe of the King of Hexi was originally a very inconspicuous small tribe on the grassland, but I don't know what's wrong, it suddenly grew overnight, and after swallowing several tribes in a row, it gradually became the number one force on the grassland, so I also have some doubts." ā
"What do you suspect?" Xiao Xi tossed the lychee high and opened her mouth to let the lychee fall into her mouth.
"I suspect there must be some other help behind him, and it is the help of this force that has enabled him to dominate the grasslands. Qian Yu analyzed.
"You're saying this help is the Emperor?" Lingxi said.
"That's right, I think it should be the emperor, I can't think of anyone else who can do this except the emperor, the king of Hexi should be the emperor's agent chosen on the grassland. Qian Yu said.
"Hmph, I didn't expect this guy to have some means. Lingxi touched his chin and said.
"Yes, the purpose of the king of Hexi entering Beijing this time, in addition to sending tribute, is also ready to take the second son as a hostage and mortgage it in Beijing to gain the emperor's trust. Qian Yu nodded and said, "I think this method is also the emperor's side knock on the side to tell him, otherwise with the character of the grassland people, he would not have done this kind of thing." ā
"Despicable, shameless!" Xiao Xi couldn't help but scold.
"Hey, it's not right for you to say that!" Lingxi retorted: "Although his move is inconsistent with human feelings, but in front of the government, this kind of human feelings is nothing at all, after all, he is in charge of the whole world, if this move can make the king of Hexi keep to himself and avoid some wars, it is not impossible." ā
"Hey, why are you suddenly talking to him again!" Xiao Xi said very unhappily when she heard it.
"Well, although people are a bit of a jerk, there is nothing wrong with what they do, and I am not towards him. Lingxi smiled a little awkwardly.
"Hmph, you don't talk nonsense, to be honest, do you think of a way now, what are you going to do with Ya'er's marriage contract?"
"Ahh
"I think this matter is already a foregone conclusion, although the king of Hexi took the initiative to let the second son as a hostage, but there must be resentment in his heart, and the emperor obviously appeased the king of Hexi, so the matter of arranging this marriage contract cannot be changed. Qian Yu said.
"No, I seem to have seen it, Ya'er blames me when she grows up, and I'm so annoyed!" Lingxi said very distressedly,
"Why don't I go and kill the king of Hexi and his son, so that the marriage contract will naturally not be established?" Xiao Xi said with a smile.
"No!" Qianyu, Lingxi, yelled at Xiao Xi with Qinnu.
"Hey, what are you doing! I'm just mentioning if yƬ is okay, is it necessary to yell at me like this! I'm so bullied!" Xiao Xi said very unpleasantly.
"Hey, I'm very strange, Qin, Xiao Xi said that he wanted to kill the King of Hexi, what are you excited about? It seems that when it comes to things related to the King of Hexi, you don't seem to be right!" Lingxi looked at the Qin slave who stood up, frowned and asked.
"I, I. Qin Nu was asked by Lingxi, and he didn't know how to answer for a while, and said: "On this grassland, it was not easy to settle down, if you kill the king of Hexi, there will definitely be war again, and there will be countless casualties at that time, and the people will fall into war again, so I naturally oppose this mention!"
"Really?" Lingxi narrowed his eyes with an expression of disbelief.
"When, of course it is!" Qin Nu's heart was a little empty when he was looked at by Lingxi, and he couldn't help but stand up, picked up the guqin, and said, "I, today, that, I'll come another day." After saying that, he left directly, without even saying goodbye.
"This guy is weird today, I don't think it's normal!" Lingxi muttered as he watched Qinnu's departing back.
"Hehe, I guess he has something to do with the King of Hexi, otherwise he wouldn't be so excited. Qian Yu said.
"You mean, he's the eldest son of the King of Hexi?" Lingxi said.
"I didn't say that, that's what you guessed. Qian Yu hurriedly shook his head and said, "But there is indeed such a possibility, if you count the age, it should be about the same." ā
"Looks like we're going to have to find a chance to ask this guy a good question!" Lingxi said with a light snort.
