In King Qin's mansion, tonight is sleepless, I don't know what the prince and the princess said, it actually caused the princess to cry. Jing Zhi went to call the county lord, but the county lord entered Chiba Xuan for a while, and also ran back to the Moon Pavilion crying.

This was the first time in the Qin Palace, and the people were all silent, not daring to speak loudly, and each of them was doing their own work in peace. It's just that among them, a certain woman is obviously interested in the contradictions between the prince and the princess, but she still stays in the front hall and does her own work.

"You don't owe enough when he was young, and you have to send him to the west. Have you done this father? The princess's voice was already a little hoarse, and she had been crying for several hours since Xu De told her about it. Her deep eyes were red and swollen at the moment.

Xu De didn't say anything when he heard this, but silently played with a piece of broken jade, which was the jade pendant that the princess fell to the ground at first, and it was Xu You's birthday gift to the princess on the princess's birthday.

"I don't believe that there are any assassins in the high-walled and deep courtyard of the Qin Palace." The princess's momentum is like that of a female tiger guarding a calf.

"Madam," Xu De clenched the broken jade in his hand, the irregular cracked surface cut the skin in his palm, and blood flowed out along the gap in his fist, but Xu De didn't seem to feel the pain, "In the past, I relied on you what you wanted, but this time, I can't rely on you." ”

Seeing that the princess was just crying and didn't refute it, Xu De said again: "What the Qin Mansion needs is a prince who carries a big banner, not just a prince. I've never told you what I'm going to do, but I'm sure you do! ”

"Wei Guogong has a great favor to me, what I want to do is not to let a real pillar of the country like him die empty. It's a long process, and there's a lot to give up. ”

"So you're going to send Yu'er west for an adventure?"

"The west side is safer than the capital on this day."

The two fell into a stalemate again, and at this moment, Jing Zhi's voice sounded by the door: "Lord and Princess, His Royal Highness the Prince has come down." ”

The two were silent, and after a while, Xu De opened his mouth and said, "Let him in." ”

"Father, mother." Xu You saluted the two, his voice a little weak. He has been coughing up blood recently, and Dr. Chen is still giving him injections.

Because no one dared to pass this on to the prince, Xu Youcai knew from the maid Ruyi next to him that the princess and princess were arguing.

Xu De and the princess were silent, they each sat on one side of the room, especially Xu De, his hand was still bloody, Xu You asked Jingzhi to take gauze to wrap Xu De's hand simply. The two remained silent in front of Xu You, without saying a word.

"Why are my father and mother arguing, why don't you say it, especially mother, you still have my younger brothers and sisters in your womb, don't be angry." Xu You's voice was as gentle as spring rain, and when it fell on people's ears, it seemed to penetrate into the soil.

"You'er ......" listened to Xu You's gentle persuasion, and the princess couldn't hold on anymore and cried again.

Xu You took a few steps forward, took her hand, and said to Xu De: "Father, what have you done, apologize to your mother." ”

Seeing that Xu You threw the wrong reason on himself, Xu De was not angry at all, and asked: "You'er, if the situation in Jingzhong is unstable and my father wants to ensure your safety, what is the best thing to do?" ”

Xu You's eyes looked as good as amber in the lights, and after listening to Xu De's words, he smiled and said, "Of course, send me to the Anxi Army in the west, so it's the safest." He had already guessed a few points of this kind when he came.

Xu De and the princess were stunned, Xu De knew that Xu You was precocious, and he was still stunned, not to mention the princess?

"Would you like to go, then?" Xu De's voice had some indescribable flavor.

"Yes, I don't have martial arts, my body is thin, and I'm afraid of dying in the capital." As he spoke, he smiled, but in the ears of the princess and Xu De, his joke was especially not funny.

The final ending of the night was that the princess who had cried all night was coaxed to sleep by Xu You, seeing that the princess was asleep, Xu You picked up a thin velvet blanket and covered the princess, the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and the night was already a little cold.

The princess has been pregnant for almost two months, and if she is not obvious when she sits, she is lying down at the moment, and her lower abdomen under the velvet blanket is like a slowly mountain bag. Xu You stretched out his hand, gently placed it on the princess's lower abdomen, and asked Xu De, who didn't talk much tonight, in a low voice, and said, "Father, you said that my mother would give me a younger brother or a younger sister." ”

"I don't know." There was a little more vicissitudes in Xu De's voice, which was rare in him, and his ambition did not allow him to grow old.

"I hope it's a younger sister, and I will buy her the best-looking rouge gouache and make her the best-looking princess in the world." Xu You said softly.

Xu You got up, and with Xu De, except for Chiba Xuan, the subordinates carried lanterns one after another, wanting to show them the way, but Xu De took a lantern, retreated, and said, "I'll walk alone with the toddler." ”

The road from Chiba Xuan to the Star Pavilion was full of plants from all over the world, these were all princesses serving, sometimes the princess was petty, and Xu De would also follow to cut the flowers and plants.

The path paved with bluestone slabs in the middle looks particularly bright in the moonlight. Xu You looked up and saw the moon in the sky, although it was not yet fifteen, it was already very round.

Walking to a quiet place completely, Xu You opened his mouth and said, "Father, in fact, I want my mother to give me a younger brother." ”

Xu De could feel that in this seemingly calm night, there were still at least four masters of the Anxi Army, but Xu You had never practiced martial arts and could not feel the faint breath. After listening to Xu You's words, Xu De asked, "Why?" ”

"I have always been in poor health, and I may not live long in the future, and with a younger brother, I don't have to worry about having no successor to the Xu family after my death."

When Xu De heard this, he felt a little remorseful, in the deepest part of his heart, He Zeng didn't think like this, but he felt that it was too selfish, and he never told anyone. Hearing Xu You say this, he only said: "If you exercise diligently, you will definitely live a long life." ”

"Wisdom will hurt, and love will not live." Xu You looked at Xu De's face with a smile, his beard was slightly white, and said: "The master and you both say that I am precocious, I don't have to be modest, I am the smartest person in the Han, and my experience is enough, and ten fathers are definitely not as good as me." ”

Xu can already be regarded as arrogant in this remark, and he dares to say that the ten Qin kings are not as good as his own, he is the first person in the Han Dynasty.

Xu De sighed and said, "You are too smart. ”

"When I went to the west this time, I still hope that my father will give me an official position, and don't let me go to the west to recite poetry and write poems, there is nothing to see there." Xu You grew up in Xi'an City before he was seven years old, and he knows the scenery of the west very well.

"Want to try to lead a war?" There was a hint of cunning in Xu De's eyes, "You are smart, but you may not be able to defeat me in battle." ”

"My father has beaten down one-third of Tibet, and I will fight for my father for the remaining two-thirds." A raging fire burned in Xu You's eyes.

"If you can defeat it, you can also be the emperor."

"The emperor can do everyone."

After saying this, the father and son did not speak, enjoying the short silence, and the fresh smell of plants and trees made people feel happy.

Seeing that the not-so-bright lights of the Falling Star Pavilion were getting closer and closer, Xu You stopped and asked, "Father, when did you arrange for me to leave Beijing?" ”

"If it's the fastest, in three days."

"Okay, I'm going to bring a maid." Xu You smiled, thinking that Xu De must not know the maid he was talking about, and added: "It's called Ruyi, and I've been with me for ten years." ”

"Let Xu Ge follow you when the time comes, I'll rest assured."

"Father, go back and rest early, and go forward tomorrow to see Mother." After speaking, Xu You turned around and entered the Falling Star Pavilion, and Xu De simply took a detour from the Falling Star Pavilion, from the Moon Waiting Pavilion, back to Biyuan.

When he went to the Moon Waiting Pavilion, he clearly heard Liuli's cry, and wanted to persuade him, but after thinking about it, he still went back to Biyuan.

At the gate of Biyuan, Xu De saw Xuchang. When the housekeeper saw Xu De, he trotted up and said, "Lord Wang, Xu Ge is back, waiting for you in Hanshanzhai." ”

"Got it." After speaking, Xu De didn't wait for Xu Chang to follow the way for him, and went straight to Hanshan Zhai.

There was no light in Hanshan Zhai, and after Xu De entered, he found Xu Ge kneeling on the ground with a knife untied from his waist beside him.

"What do you mean?" Xu De asked while holding the lamp.

"If the general is ineffective, the prince will punish him."

"I said that the problem is mine, why do you come out to take responsibility." Xu De put the lampstand on the bookcase and said, "How is the situation?" ”

"There are masters who have touched it, and their martial arts are strong."

"How better than you."

"I fought him three times, and I didn't win or lose."

"That's about the same as you?"

"Better than me." Xu Ge hung his head, "He didn't use all his strength, after a long time, I will definitely be defeated by him." ”

"It's interesting, I didn't expect that Jingzhong could find such a master." Xu De was confident that his martial arts were the best in the capital, and he wanted to compete with that master.

"Also, the emperor agreed to the deal, and he promised very happily, but Lu Jin didn't speak, and I didn't force him with a knife."

"It's good if the emperor agrees, and the rest doesn't matter."

The two of them sat and knelt down like this, and were silent for a long time. Suddenly, Xu Ge made a move, took out the knife beside him, and slashed at the wrist of his left hand. Xu De pushed it out with one palm, and hit the candlestick Xu Ge's left hand, and slashed it down, but it scratched the skin.

Darkness returned to Hanshan Zhaili.

"Lord Wang." Although Xu Ge was not a strategist, he knew that putting people into Ansheng Palace must have greatly affected Xu De's plan.

"Leave your hand useful, my son will go to the Western Front to supervise the battle in the near future, you go with him, protect his safety, even if you make up for it."

Although Xu Ge holds the knife with his right hand, the cutting off of one of his limbs will inevitably lead to the stagnation of qi and blood, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to advance in the future, and may even regress.

Xu You didn't speak, but knocked his head three times in a piece of moonlight pulled out of the window, and the white was stained red with blood, I don't know if it was a wound on his hand or a wound on his forehead.

Xu Ge got up and left, taking the knife, leaving Xu De alone in the cold mountain fast.

Xu De didn't seem to have any intention of leaving, and sat in the dark. Xu Chang found a lamp from outside and came to Xu De's side: "Lord Wang, it's late at night, let's rest." ”

Xu De's closed eyes opened, got up and walked out, Xu Chang hurriedly covered the lamp, and followed out with a lantern. The two of them walked on the way back to Biyuan.

After walking a few steps, Xu Dehu turned around and walked in the opposite direction, Xu Chang stepped forward and asked, "Lord Wang, who are you?" ”

"Go to Chiba-ken." Xu De's voice was indifferent, and slowly disappeared into the moonlight.
