Xiao Diyuan nodded and followed him to Jingde Palace.

Located in the northwest corner of the Imperial Palace, Jingde Palace is a small palace surrounded by greenery, and there is only a path between flowers.

When Xiao Diyuan entered Jingde Palace, he saw that Li Pei and the Empress Dowager were already sitting inside, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Li Pei stretched out his hand to signal him to get up, and said softly, "Tell me about the investigation over there." ”

Xiao Diyuan sat down and replied, "I found a person who experienced the whole incident back then. ”

After that, he told them everything about Zou Twelve, and showed them the information that Zou Twelve.

Now, the matter of Xiao Diyuan being taken away by Shuguo back then is ironclad, and there is only one question left now - why did Xiao Hong do this back then.

But now this question is not the most important thing for Li Pei and the Queen Mother, because the most important thing is to determine Xiao Diyuan's identity.

After learning what Zou Twelve stated, the Queen Mother burst into tears, and regardless of whether Xiao Diyuan was willing or not, she quickly walked over and reached out to hug Xiao Diyuan's head, shouting: "Yun'er, my Yun'er, the queen mother is sorry for you!"

Xiao Diyuan was also very emotional, hugged the queen mother and said: "Then you can't blame you, please don't blame yourself anymore." ”

The Empress Dowager shook her head desperately and said, "No, I have a lot of responsibility for this matter, if only I had arranged for a few people to stay by your side at that time." ”

Xiao Diyuan hurriedly patted her on the back and comforted: "You didn't expect this kind of thing to happen at that time, I can't blame you." ”

Seeing this scene, Li Pei was also very emotional, and his eyes were full of tears unconsciously.

So the three of them discussed what to do next.

Xiao Diyuan said: "Now there are 51 cities in Zhao and 46 cities in Shuguo, and the national strength is not far apart, and the situation in the five countries of the Central Plains is very stable. What I personally mean is that I will wait for him to verify his motivation for doing so in the first place before proceeding to the next step, when it is likely that he will need to move into the army. ”

Li Pei said: "Well, when you go to ask him for verification, he will undoubtedly deny it, and immediately order someone to arrest you, and the way for you to escape at that time is to arrange your own people inside and outside." So, when do you think it's appropriate for you to ask him for confirmation?"

Xiao Diyuan: "When I find a suitable general to work with, I should be able to find a good one by the end of next year at the latest." ”

Li Pei asked the Empress Dowager for her opinion, and the Empress Dowager said: "I don't have any opinions here, everything is about Yun'er's safety." ”

Then the Queen Mother said: "Where there is a war, there will be sacrifices, and I don't want this matter to lead to too many innocent people sacrificed, so try not to fight if you can." ”

Xiao Diyuan: "It's hard not to fight, we can only do as little as possible. ”

The Queen Mother took Xiao Diyuan's hand and nodded, looking at Xiao Diyuan's eyes full of love.

Li Pei said: "Also, there is no doubt that the army of Zhao State cannot enter the territory of Shu Kingdom without fighting, so the army has to be deployed by you on the Shu side, which will also be a big challenge for you." ”

Xiao Diyuan said: "Well, so it will take time to deploy, but don't worry, I will definitely deploy it properly." ”

The Empress Dowager and Li Pei both nodded with great trust.

Then, the Empress Dowager and Li Pei asked him about his life in Shuguo over the years, and Xiao Diyuan said: "Speaking of which, they treated me well, and gave me the best in terms of education and life, so I don't have a deep grudge and bitter hatred against them, but their behavior back then was extremely bad and they deserved the punishment." ”

When he said this, Xiao Diyuan's face was calm, and there was no deep hatred or hatred.

Li Pei and the Empress Dowager were very pleased, after all, a person who has always been bitter is very terrifying, and they are glad that the events of the year did not leave a shadow in Xiao Diyuan's heart.

Li Pei and the Queen Mother both hoped that Xiao Diyuan could win Zhao Guo in this competition, but when they thought of Xiao Diyuan's current situation, they still couldn't help it.

Before saying goodbye, Xiao Diyuan asked: "Can you let Jiang Shoufu's son Jiang Yueting secretly enter the palace tomorrow?" I want to see her. ”

Li Pei and the Empress Dowager were stunned, and then Li Pei asked, "Do you have a personal relationship with him?"

Xiao Diyuan smiled slightly and said, "It's more likely, I really want to be friends with her." ”

Li Pei: "Right now, 'he' is also preparing for the '95 Race', and you also need to prepare well, so it's better to wait until the game is over before meeting." ”

Xiao Diyuan smiled and said, "It will be too late then." ”

Li Pei suddenly realized the question of whether Xiao Diyuan was helping Shuguo or Zhaoguo in this year's 'Ninth Five-Year Competition', so he immediately agreed.

In the evening of that day, Jiang Yuetang learned that Xiao Diyuan and his party had arrived in the capital of Zhaoguo, but due to everyone's tight time before the game, she resisted the urge to ask him out to meet.

However, because she realized that he was in the city, her heart felt extremely sweet and anxious, and she couldn't help but think about him, guessing what he was doing at the moment, whether he also missed her.

The person sent by Li Pei to deliver the message arrived in Jiangfu at dark and conveyed the meaning of Li Pei and Xiao Diyuan to Jiang Yuetang.

Knowing that Li Pei personally invited him into the palace for Xiao Diyuan, Jiang Yuetang was inexplicably excited and immediately informed his family of the matter.

Jiang Chuanxiong listened to it but said solemnly: "His Royal Highness Shuguo II invited you into the palace to meet him at such a critical juncture, I always feel that he took this competition too casually. ”

He couldn't help but speculate about what kind of position Xiao Diyuan held in this competition.

Maybe Xiao Diyuan asked Jiang Yuetang to enter the palace at this time?

Thinking like this, Jiang Chuanxiong immediately said: "Since he pulled His Majesty to help him invite you, then I'm afraid you won't be able to go, then you will enter the palace with me early tomorrow morning." By the way, if he asks you to deliberately lose to Akebono at that time, you must not agree. ”

Jiang Yuetang said: "Daddy, don't worry, no matter what, I will never deliberately let my country lose." ”

Jiang Chuanxiong was relieved at this time.

At night, after Jiang Yuetang lay down, she couldn't help but think about Xiao Diyuan.

The last time the two met was in the 55th year of the Zhao Dynasty (two years ago), on Feilong Mountain, when Jiang Yuetang was only ten years old, and now, she has grown two years old, regardless of height, body shape and appearance, she has changed a lot.

Now she has grown into a slender figure, a peach-like girl, if it weren't for the thick wrap wrapped around her body, men's clothes and masculine demeanor as a cover, she is actually more charming than ordinary girls.

She is looking forward to the scene where the two will meet tomorrow, and she is also imagining what Xiao Diyuan looks like now.

She slept sweetly in this warm and happy feeling.
