Si Yan, the prince of Yan Guo, His Royal Highness the Prince, the queen mother died early, and was raised by the most favored concubine since he was a child.

Si Yan's adoptive mother is the mother of the emperor's eldest son, but since ancient times, the battle for the throne has established a long line, therefore, this concubine naturally wants to plan for her son, and she is naturally always on guard against Si Yan, and often plays behind her back. But because Si Yan's mother's family is very powerful in Yanguo, Si Yan's uncle is the chief general of Yanguo, his maternal grandfather is the prime minister of Yanguo, and his grandmother is the aunt of Emperor Yanguo, plus Si Yan is the future royal prince appointed by the emperor, so this prince's status cannot be shaken in the slightest after all.

However, many people know that as long as His Royal Highness Si Yan, the crown prince, dies, this title must belong to the eldest son of the emperor. Countless assassinations, licking life on the knife every day, and losing his mother's love after the age of seven, Si Yan will definitely not be like a normal child, simple, and ignorant of the world. In other words, this person has always lived in a state of defensiveness against people, and even more, it can be said that this person does not understand love at all. How can such a person who has never been loved love love someone?

Perhaps this is why the family of origin can affect a person's life. Some people spend their whole lives in order to forget the painful memories of their childhood, and some people, at a young age, give up their precious lives early because they can't get out of the shadow of their original family.

Half a month ago, because some ministers jointly wrote a letter to accuse Si Yan's uncle Qin Li, the general of the protector of the country, on the battlefield with Li Guo that he deliberately killed the younger brother of the concubine, He Ziyu, who was the official general and the lieutenant, the reason is that because when he was on the battlefield, He Ziyu led nearly 100 people to carry out a late-night sneak attack in the middle of the night in order to rob the military merits, regardless of Qin Li's dissuasion, and was found when the Li Guoying tent was burned, and nearly 100 people were picked up by the pot, except for He Ziyu, who took the lead, because he was the status of the emperor of Yanguo, he did not kill him, and the rest were all killed on the spot.

At that time, when Qin Li received the news, it was already midnight, and when he heard his personal guard hurriedly wake him up, Qin Li still looked puzzled, in the middle of the night, he subconsciously felt the temperature under his hands, cold and cold, this was clearly not on the big bed, Qin Li instantly woke up, and found that this was in the battlefield tent, and immediately straightened up, "What's the matter?" ”

Qin Li saw that the personal guard's face turned a little blue, almost out of shape, and he knew that something had definitely happened. urged: "What kind of gasp, running such a little step to pant like this, what kind of physical strength is this?"

"General, Captain He just led nearly a hundred people, pretended to pass on your order, went to Li Guo's military camp, took some tinder, and said that he was going to burn Li Guo's military camp." This anxious appearance touched Qin Li's anger even more.

"Does he have a brain!" Qin Li angrily rolled out of bed, stood up with a bang, and yelled: "Is this person sick, he has talked to this pig ten thousand times, or has he run away, don't you let you look at him?" This person, there is not enough success and more failure, can't you even look at one person? What are you going to eat! ”

"General, Captain He pretended to be your handwriting, and directly said that you asked him to go out to inspect the terrain, and the minister asked him why he went out so late, and he took out your hand, and the brothers really didn't dare not let him go." The young personal guard said with a look of embarrassment when he saw Qin Li's angry appearance.

"Now is not the time to talk about this," Qin Li scratched his hair that had just been woken up and irritable, "What about that idiot?" Are they being arrested now? This sentence should be an interrogative sentence, but it becomes a statement tone, as if the result is completely certain and does not need to be considered.

"He said he was arrested, and now he is being held in the Li Guo military camp, and those people are waiting for us to take him back." Seeing that Qin Li was entangled, the guards knew that this person who had always been upright would not be able to stand idly by, because this person was not only Li Guoren, the younger brother of the concubine, but more importantly, if he had a grudge with the concubine, his nephew's life in the palace would not be easy. Therefore, no matter why, Qin Li must save him, even if there is too much hostility and calculation between them.

When Qin Li sorted out the army and was about to confront Li Guoren, he heard the voice of the observer soldiers in front of him before he saw him, "General, the body of Captain He was hung in front of the camp tent a hundred miles away, saying that it was to inspire the army's spirit and behead the public." ”

"What!" Qin Li's head slammed, Li Guo has a small land area, sparsely populated population, and an underdeveloped economy, as a small country in the east of Yan Kingdom, how dare he openly argue with the extremely powerful Yan Kingdom, do you not want to live?

Qin Li really didn't understand, originally he thought that Li Guo would not kill He Ziyu anyway, so he wasn't particularly worried, but now in this situation, the younger brother of the concubine followed him to fight, although he especially didn't like this aristocratic scum who fought with people, but this time, he completely offended the concubine's faction.

Qin Li heard his father Qin Zheng say when he was very young that a girl's pillow style is really too important and has too much influence on a boy. Over the years, because of his scruples about the Qin family and the will of the former emperor, the emperor did not abolish Si Yan, the crown prince, but if his family fell, how long could he last just by relying on the edict of the first emperor, the court would definitely be bloody.

Si Yan is only 16 years old, Qin Li thought, raised his somewhat tired eyes and looked at the sky, how long can his uncle, his father, his grandfather, protect this child.

"Wait until the evening to snatch that body's body back, you can discuss how to rob it yourself, General Ben has something to do now, let the soldiers go back to their respective tents to rest." After Qin Li finished speaking, he turned his head and returned to the tent in the blink of an eye.

After saying this, because this army has always been led by Qin Li, and they have always gotten along with each other like brothers, and a few generals knew that in that situation just now, it was definitely a loss-making deal to rob people, and they were not convinced when they went, and their faces were not particularly good. Because the generals will not consider the intrigues and intrigues in the court, once the power changes, the catastrophe will not be recovered, and the descendants will suffer.

Because the soldiers were all Qin Li's cronies, they followed him to fight in the south and the north, and when they heard that this Qin general's sworn enemy, this waste who was a fox and a fake tiger in the army, was killed, one by one as if they were going to celebrate, chatting under the tent, and smiling one by one, for fear that others would not know what 'happy event' had happened. However, at the thought of a hundred brothers who had died because of his meritorious service, he hated this man and applauded the death of this captain.

In fact, He Ziyu should not have been killed, as everyone knows, how dare a small country like Li Guo argue with Yan Guo, one of the two great powers. Just because just now, He Ziyu bribed a soldier in the tent where he was detained, and then escaped, and after being captured, he killed five soldiers, General Li Guo was furious, but everyone dissuaded him, and directly killed He Ziyu on the spot, in order to encourage the soldiers and motivate the army, beheaded the public.

After Qin Li got the news from the spies in front, his face was really blue, and he only said one sentence, "If people are stupid, they can't catch a hundred good fortunes." After finishing speaking, he straightened out the soldiers, encouraged the morale of the soldiers, and began a passionate speech.

...... You and others are the pillars of the Yan country, nearly 100 of us were killed by the small country, today, let us take revenge, a shame before the snow, and revive the majesty of the Yan country, okay......

At the end of a passionate speech, the soldiers were sad enough because of the death of their brothers, but after being persuaded by this burst of encouraging words, they completely fell into a state of excitement.

However, what puzzled many people, in the end, Qin Li did not take revenge and killed General Li Guo, and even accepted the latter's surrender, which made everyone unexpected, and it was precisely because of this move that the concubine had the handle to sue him for intentional homicide.

However, Qin Li is a real hero, he would rather be a broken jade than a complete tile, talking about the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and the importance of heroic courage, so he became familiar with General Li Guo and became good friends.

Just after returning to the palace after this big victory, the concubine used this to let the emperor rectify him, but after all, the emperor of Yanguo has his own thinking, knows what the situation is, who is right and who is wrong, but also wants to find a reason to weaken Qin Li's military power, and it just so happened to take this opportunity to let Qin Li temporarily hand over the title of general and be named Prince Qin, which is called promotion, which is actually a reduction in power.

As a courtier, the Qin family also knew the emperor's intentions, and they didn't say anything, but at this time, the concubine began to hurry up and do it, after Si Yan was almost burned to death, they decided to let Si Yan go out to hide for the time being, and then Si Yan came to this western suburb courtyard, which is often the most dangerous place and the safest.

The two countries contain each other, and no one is stronger than the other, so when you come to the Night Country, this closed western suburb of Nanyuan, is the safest. Right here, at the first glance when he came here, Si Yan saw the heroic female general he had seen on the battlefield.

Half a year ago, on a snowy day in winter, the battle for Lake City, which had lasted for a long time, entered the climax stage in the middle, the night country helped Chen Guo, and Yan Guo helped Li Guo, these four countries were at the junction of Chen and Li Guo, and it was difficult to separate. At that time, Ye Qianling was sent to the field by Ye Qianchen, some time ago, because Ye Qianchen was sent to the battlefield to fight soon after she got married, Ye Qianling stayed at home with her sister-in-law, until her sister-in-law gave birth smoothly, Ye Qianling came here to help fight.

At that time, Si Yan came to the battlefield for the first time, and at first glance, he saw this sassy figure on the battlefield, so he remembered this figure deeply in his mind, and wanted to get acquainted with him one day, but then asked the person next to him, only to know that this person was Ye Qianling, the fifth princess of the Night Kingdom, who knew that he saw it in Nanyuan in the western suburbs this time.
