The life in the small courtyard is quiet and warm.

Ying Qi will not bring any military affairs back to the small courtyard, he and Jin Yan are like the most ordinary couple in Nanqian, they will talk about wine in the afterglow of the sunset, and they will also cut the candles in the west window in the rainy night. Everything is shallow and faint, and when it passes through the heart, it becomes a timeless tenderness.

All in all, Ying Qi likes this kind of life like never before, except for the sorrow that Jin Yan inadvertently revealed when he looked north.

It's been five days, and she hasn't opened her mouth to herself, and she's really stamina. Ying Qi secretly wondered, could he be waiting for his conscience to find out? Forget it, he didn't plan to kill them all, he still wants to live a good life.

There is a small hill near the yard, which is not particularly beautiful, but the acacia trees planted on both sides of the road are lovely. Now is the flowering season, and the golden light yellow of the trees wafts a faint fragrance under the swaying of the summer breeze.

After dinner, the two walked hand in hand on this mountain road full of acacia trees.

At first, Jin Yan didn't know this kind of tree, but he thought that this flower was brilliant and lovely, so he asked a few words. When Ying Qi smiled and replied that this was the acacia tree, she immediately realized that all kinds of beautiful poems kept popping up in her mind.

"Red beans are born in the south, and a few branches are sent in spring."

"Throw red beans across the water, and the tender peaches are like faces and waists."

"Exquisite dice An red beans, I don't know if I am lovesick to the bones."

......

After reciting more, it is inevitable to yearn for it, what does the acacia tree that can grow red beans look like? After standing under the tree and watching for a long time, Ying Qi asked, "Do you like it?" ”

Jin Yan nodded and said, "I want one of such cute and affectionate beans too." ”

Ying Qi shook his head disapprovingly, "Red beans, also known as acacia, legend has it that people who suffer from lovesickness fall under the weeping tree, which is difficult to dissolve, and finally condensed. So, even though the red beans are affectionate and cute, I still don't like it. ”

"If you can stay together in the morning and twilight, what kind of red beans do you want, isn't it enough to see me every day?"

When Jin Yan heard this, he was disgusted and said: "It's obvious that you are stingy, and you are not even willing to give me a little bean."

Ying Qi had no choice but to promise: "In two months, when the fruit is ripe, I will pick all the red beans all over the mountain and give them to you, is this enough?"

"No, just one, one is enough." Jin Yan smiled and said, "I'm not greedy, I always have to leave some for others." ”

Ying Qi smiled heartily, "You are really a queen who is sympathetic to the people's feelings, why, do you want to be a generation of virtuous queens?" ”

Jin Yan just smiled and didn't answer, but took the initiative to hug Ying Qi's neck. Under the bright moonlight, gently kiss the thin lips and slowly rub them together.

Such a passionate and active kiss made Ying Qi's mood extremely good, and the words became more.

"Ayan, don't worry about your 100,000 troops, I have my own plans in my heart, and I will never let them die in desperation."

"And the city of Beiluo, I have not touched a single bit, and the people's property is as good as before. In fact, they had already begun to retreat, and I had no intention of making a feud with Beiluo, and if I had not been forced to do so, I would definitely not want to fight this battle. ”

"Now that Beiluo has an heir to the throne, you don't have to go back to be the empress. Ayan, as long as you stay, Beiluo and Nanqian can form an alliance forever

Good. ”

"I did something to deceive you and deceive you, and it's normal for you to resent me and hate me. But you don't, do you know why? ”

Ying Qi didn't wait for Jin Yan to answer, holding her face, her eyes full of affection, "Because you love me more, you can't bear it, you will always be good for me." ”

In the four eyes, there were waves of light flowing, Jin Yan didn't say anything, just looked at Ying Qi, there was a breeze blowing back and forth in his heart, and the heart lake could no longer be calm.

There is one thing that Ying Qi does not know.

Her queen secretly handed over a note, which read: In three days, Ashu and I will welcome you home.

Her justifiable husband, and the little Ashu who she can't remember, want to welcome her home......

In the current situation, Nan Qian is still in control of the victory, she doesn't know how her queen will quickly reverse this situation, but she knows very well that the return date has come.

She believed everything Ying Qi said.

He is indeed cautious and does not want Nan Qian and Bei Luo to have too many grudges. However, since the beginning of the war, it is no longer clear whether it is passive or active.

She can't hide in the paradise compiled by Ying Qi, ignore and deceive herself. Since she is the empress of the world, how can she be trapped in a gorgeous palace and only be a princess?

She can not resent, but she cannot turn her back on responsibility.

Jin Yan gently kissed the thin lips again, very light and shallow, but with an incomprehensible lingering. The closed eyes are already moist, and when they can't hold it, they all retreat to their hearts. When did she learn to keep tears in her heart? Hehe, it's quite useful.

It's just that after a day, all kinds of unexpected bad news have come one after another.

The Northern Liang rebelled, refusing to allow the army of the Southern Cadres to return to the country by the means, and the Northern Luo counterattacked the defense, and hundreds of thousands of troops of the Southern Cadres were trapped in the north of the Jiangbei and had no way to retreat.

The five countries, including Nanyan and Nanyue, continued to pick quarrels and provoke troubles on the Nanqian border, and gradually moved closer to Liangcheng.

Beiluo's 100,000-strong army suddenly received a large amount of supplies and had begun to prepare for a counterattack on Xingcheng.

What's worse is that at this time of anxiety, Changping Hou finally reversed......

Although Ying Qi had long been aware of the changes in the imperial city, but now that Nanqian's external troubles have not been eliminated, he should not be in trouble at this time at the risk of destroying the country, but who would have thought that he would be forced into a desperate situation regardless of uniting with outsiders!

The Three Princes' Mansion

Ying Lizheng was tied up by five flowers and sat on the main hall.

"Changping Hou, are you crazy?! I respect you as my master, and you actually forced me to do such a thing! That's my big brother, you want me to kill my brother and take the throne?!"

"I don't want it, even if you kill me, it's impossible!"

"What's more, my eldest brother treats you well to the Hou family of Changping, how can he let you breed such wolf ambitions!"

"You disloyal, unfilial, unkind and unrighteous person, from now on, I will cut off all relations with you!"

The face of the Marquis of Changping was very anxious, and he was still full of distress, and even hovered in front of Ying Li at a loss, wishing to kneel on the ground at this moment, begging this ancestor to cooperate simply.

"Third prince, how many times have I told you, your mother is not

is the current queen mother, but Concubine Li, who was forced to commit suicide!"

"Whether it is the Emperor Taishang or the Queen Mother, their hands are stained with your mother's blood, and they are all your mother-killing enemies!"

"Now, only by sitting on this throne can you avenge your mother and comfort your mother's spirit in the sky!"

"What's more, now it's not your own eldest brother sitting on the throne, it's your enemy's son, and you are already at odds with him!"

"How many times do you want me to say it before you believe it?"

Ying Li turned his back and looked angry, "Don't tell me these fantasies, it doesn't make sense for me to let my relatives not believe it, but I want to believe you as an outsider, who knows what bad intentions you harbor!"

An outsider, who said that the Marquis of Changping was broken, but he couldn't bear to complain and be angry at all, and still persuaded with good words, "A good man should be determined to achieve hegemony, you are also a prince, with royal blood flowing in your body, others can sit on this throne, you can also sit on it, are you not moved by this at all?" That's the throne of the king of a country!"

"Today's Southern Emperor, bent on kidnapping the Empress of Beiluo, causing this catastrophe, has already lost the support of the people, how do you think that a marquis of mine has the ability to control the entire imperial city, and it is not the desire of the people?"

"Seeing that Nan Qian has become the target of everyone, and the country will not be a country, won't the three princes worry?"

"Phew!" Ying Li spurned the Marquis of Changping, and dared to coax him, thinking that he didn't know anything?

"Don't be pretending to be benevolent here, my eldest brother has long known about your collusion with the military department Shangshu and General Zhenbei, and I know it too! You lied to everyone that you just wanted to force my eldest brother to hand over the empress and resolve this war, but in fact, you had a murderous intention and wanted to kill my eldest brother and replace him, even if I listened to you and ascended the throne, I was just a puppet. ”

"Now that the national crisis is at the head, we should unite with the outside world. It's good that you, under the guise of loyalty, are doing rebellious things. It's a good calculation for you to take advantage of everything!"

"You are the sinner of Nangan through the ages!"

Changping Hou suddenly laughed, as if he was very satisfied with these words, and even praised: "Who said that the third prince is stupid and can't catch up with the two elder brothers, he is obviously such a thorough person." The three princes are not only loyal and brave, but also have a sincere heart, what else is there to worry about when Nanqian is handed over to you in the future? ”

Saying this, the Marquis of Changping approached Ying Li, turned his face, stared at the wide eyebrows and big eyes, and said seriously, "Third prince, now we have no way out, we are people in the same boat." ”

"If you don't succeed, you die!"

"However, I won't let you die, I will always leave you a way back." Changping Hou paused slightly, and there was love and sorrow in his eyes.

"The Southern Emperor is trapped in Xingcheng, without supply, like a trapped beast. And I won't let him step into the Imperial City again. ”

"As soon as he dies, I will support you to ascend the throne as the emperor, no one will say that you killed your brother, that is the Southern Emperor killed by Beiluo, and it has nothing to do with you and me."

"I've arranged everything, you just need to wait quietly, in less than half a month, Nanqian will be yours in the end."

"Son, I'm ...... for your good"

After saying the last sentence, Changping Hou turned around and walked away. Only Ying Li was left, no matter how much he scolded and struggled, it had no effect.

Depressed, he muttered to himself: The imperial city is in his hands, but there is still a way to save the eldest brother?
