Jiang Yuetang looked at him motionlessly, and after a long time, he put his head into his chest and said, "If your situation in Shuguo is too dangerous, then don't go back, stay in Zhaoguo, and I will provide you with a place to live." I believe that with your ingenuity, you will be able to live well in Zhaoguo. ”

Xiao Diyuan smiled when he heard this, and said, "Thank you, as far as the current situation is concerned, I still have to go back." ”

After that, Xiao Diyuan looked at the sky and asked her, "Your father is waiting for you to go back in the carriage together, right?"

"Hmm. She nodded, but her hands were still tightly wrapped around his waist.

"Then let's go back first, don't let him wait too long, we'll meet tomorrow." He said as he stroked her head.

That being said, the other hand around her waist was reluctant to let go.

So the two hugged tightly for a while before parting.

On the way back, Jiang Yuetang told Jiang Chuanxiong about her worries about Xiao Diyuan's situation and asked Jiang Chuanxiong if he had any good suggestions to help him.

Jiang Chuanxiong sighed and said, "I also know that he will be blamed by his father when he returns to China this time, but we really can't help him at the moment, so we can only pray for him silently." Then he said: "I also admire and thank him for taking such a big risk to leave the chance of victory to you and Zhaoguo at the last moment." ”

"I guess he must have realized who he really was. Jiang Yuetang said.

Jiang Chuanxiong also nodded and said, "I think so too, otherwise he wouldn't be able to do this." ”

.....................

When Xiao Hong received a letter from the contestants about the results of the competition, he was so angry that he almost tore up the letter. At that time, there were more than a dozen important ministers of the court beside him, and everyone knew the result as soon as they saw his expression, and they hurriedly persuaded him not to be too angry, so as not to hurt the dragon body.

Xiao Hong couldn't speak for a long time, he only felt that his head was chaotic, and he couldn't believe that this would be the result.

But when he finally calmed down, he understood the reason for this result - either Xiao Diyuan didn't play well on the spot, or Xiao Diyuan deliberately lost to Jiang Yuetang.

Xiao Hong felt that the possibility of the former was not high, because Xiao Diyuan's ability Xiao Hong was very clear. But if it is the latter, then Xiao Diyuan is tantamount to telling Xiao Hong with his actions that he knows his identity.

If Xiao Diyuan really knew his identity, then a question about why he created the illusion that the third prince was eaten by a wild wolf would inevitably happen soon, and Xiao Hong would inevitably face the possibility of being questioned or even killed by a vendetta.

Although Xiao Hong's personal safety has always been guaranteed, and he can increase the number of guards, who knows if Xiao Diyuan will play tricks at that time?

Xiao Hong was very flustered.

The ministers also felt a lot of doubts about Xiao Diyuan's defeat, but they didn't dare to make more statements, so they were all waiting for Xiao Hong's statement.

Xiao Hong said: "Regarding the failure of King Guangxian's competition, we can wait for him to come back and then do a deep study, and now discuss which city should be ceded first." ”

As soon as it came to the matter of ceding the city, Xiao Hong's face sank, but he was willing to lose the bet, so he could only endure the pain.

After some discussion, Shuguo finally decided to cede Zhang Yingcheng.

After the meeting, Xiao Hong went back to the Heart Cultivation Palace, and when he just wanted to sit down, he felt that his chest was extremely stuffy and out of breath, so he hurriedly sat down slowly with his desk.

At this time, the crown prince Xiao Di asked to see him.

Xiao Hong thought about it before allowing him to come in.

After sitting down, the crown prince Xiao Di said: "Father, with the ability of the second brother, how can he not defeat the little prince of Zhaoguo? ”

Xiao Hong said coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Xiao Di said: "Even if the father refuses to admit it, the son can see it - the second brother is probably not the son of the son, and the son of the son should be someone else." ”

Xiao Hong immediately raised his hand and gave Xiao Di a slap, and before Xiao Di could speak, Xiao Hong followed up with another slap.

Suddenly, Xiao Dikai's face left two clear red marks, Xiao Dikai has never been slapped since he was a child, at this time it was pain and shame, covering his painful face and glaring at Xiao Hong and said: "This matter has already been spread in private, but it is not made up by Erchen himself." ”

Xiao Hong was so angry that he slammed the table and said, "How old are you?"

Xiao Di opened his angry eyes and said: "Then he doesn't look like you and the queen mother at all, what can you say about this?" Erchen heard that the second brother was a little demented after birth because of difficult childbirth, but when he was nearly a year old, he suddenly became smart and smart, what can he say?"

"Shut up. Xiao Hong roared, and then he felt that his blood was attacking his heart, and he fainted suddenly.

Xiao Di was startled, and hurriedly rushed over to help him up while calling someone in.

For a while, the scene was in chaos.

Xiao Hong was sick for three days before he could get out of bed, but after this illness, his mental condition was much worse than before.

He called Liu and said, "When King Guangxian and his party return to China, you can meet with King Guangxian alone and convey to him some of the things I want to say to him, and I will not meet him directly at that time." ”

Liu nodded, and looked at Xiao Hong with a worried face: "Your Majesty, what if he forces his concubines to understand the events of the year?"

Xiao Hong: "At that time, I will arrange for the guards to lie in ambush outside your room, and if he asks about it, you will call the guards to tie him up and take him to the prison." ”

Liu: "You have to get a reason for closing the prison." ”

Xiao Hong: "It's not easy to find a reason? I can list three or four at will." ”

Liu: "Yes. ”

Then Xiao Hong deployed heavy troops to guard the palace and his various places of activity.

Obviously, he was ready to do everything to protect himself and capture Xiao Diyuan.

That night, Xiao Hong vomited blood again, and fainted for a while, which frightened the Liu family, and stayed in front of Xiao Hong's bed overnight despite his already bad health.

The crown prince Xiao Di Kai also came, but Xiao Hong was angry when he saw him, and said sharply: "You go out." ”

In order not to make him angry, Xiao Dikai had to go out.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Hong vomited blood again.

Ryu wept as he wiped the blood from his mouth.

His situation was really worrying, so she said warmly and comfortingly: "Your Majesty, the dragon body is important, and the rest of the things, let's see one step at a time, don't worry too much." ”

Xiao Hong sighed and said: "The crown prince is not the best candidate to be the successor, and we don't have a more suitable candidate at the moment, how can I not worry? ”

Liu Shi suddenly burst into tears, but after crying for a while, she wiped away her tears and said, "Anyway, isn't the crown prince assisted by six important ministers?"

Xiao Hong sighed and said, "I can only rely on those six important ministers." ”

Thinking of the situation that may occur after Xiao Diyuan returns to China, he will inevitably be confused. The worries of the two were intertwined, making his whole heart feel like it was being torn apart by something, and there was no moment of peace of mind.
