The little guy's little hands are fleshy and soft, which makes Xing quite a little lovely, looking at his clear eyes without a trace of impurities, looking at the innocent smile on his face, happy with the unprecedented tranquility in his heart.

Dispelled the distracting thoughts in his heart, happily handed over the little guy to Zhao Jing, and then said with some seriousness: "Brother Wang, you are from Yingzhou, you must have a lot of contact with Dahe Chucai, I don't know if he has ever unified the Dahe clan, what is the current trend of the Khitan?" ”

Wang Yan's face suddenly became serious, and he said in a solemn tone: "Little Prince, the current situation of the Khitan is not optimistic, I went south this time, firstly, to meet the little prince and his father, and secondly, to deliver a message for Dahe Chucai!" Little prince, this is the secret letter that Dahe Chucai entrusted me to hand over to you! ”

As he spoke, Wang Yan took out the letter he kept in his arms and handed it to Xing Xing with both hands. Nodding happily, the envelope was in good condition, apparently no one was peeking at it. In today's Northern Qi Dynasty, paper has become very popular, whether it is for the dissemination of knowledge and scholarship, or the exchange of information between people is much more convenient.

When the happy eyes fell on the letterhead in his hand, his face changed slightly, and as the reading deepened, his face became more and more serious, and by the time the letterhead was finished, his face was shrouded in a layer of coldness, and his brows were even more tightly wrinkled.

"What is Dahe Chucai doing, he can't unify the Dahe clan for more than a year, how can he strengthen the Khitan and eliminate the Turks?!" Happy put the letterhead on the small table beside him, with a hint of anger in his tone.

Happy originally thought that with the material support he gave, it was not difficult for Dahe Chucai to defeat his eldest brother and uncle, unify the Dahe clan, and then take the eight Khitan tribes under his command, but a year later, Dahe Chucai not only did not unify the Dahe clan, but was defeated by Dahe Biluo and the remaining seven Khitan tribes.

Wang Yan pondered for a moment before he spoke: "Little Lord, in my opinion, Dahe Chucai is a strong general, but he is too presumptuous, and the kindness of a woman, if you want to take charge of the clan, I am afraid it is not a suitable person." ”

Happy eyes moved slightly, but what Wang Yan said made sense. Whether it is Dahe Chucai or Dahe Wushu, they are both frank and upright men, upright, but I don't know if Dahe Chucai has learned more Han culture, and sometimes he seems a little indecisive.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but understand a little why Dahe Chucai ended up in such a field. Sure enough, Wang Yan's next words proved his guess.

"Little prince, Da He Chu has your support, the original situation was very good, and he annexed most of Da He Biluo's forces half a year ago, but he couldn't bear to kill his comrades, so he slowed down the offensive, hoping to talk to Da He Biluo.

Who would have thought that Dahe Biluo Mingli negotiated with Dahe Chucai, so as to delay time and make Dahe Chucai relax his vigilance, but secretly united Kumoxi and other seven Khitan people, when everything was ready, Dahe Biro besieged Dahe Chucai a month ago, so that it was defeated and lost, and now it can only be in a corner of peace, struggling to support, if there is no reinforcements within a month, Dahe Chucai's defeat is a foregone conclusion. ”

"What stupidity!" After listening to it happily, he immediately scolded angrily, and he couldn't wait to slap Da He Chucai hard.

As a friend who can talk, I am happy and hope that Dahe Chu can wash away his grievances and take charge of the Khitan; As a powerful person in the Northern Qi Dynasty, from his own interests, he naturally hoped that a person who was close to the Central Plains would become an ally rather than an enemy; What's more, now that the Turks are ready to move, they hope that the Khitan can become a nail in the grassland, so that the Turks are like fish in their throats, and they dare not look south easily.

However, now that Dahe Chu is too busy to take care of himself, the Khitan is strife, how can he be happy to find the bad luck of the Turks, and so on, how can he not be angry and disappointed.

Although he was indeed annoyed in his heart, his happy face quickly regained his calm, and the warm smile on the corner of his mouth hid his mood deeply. glanced at the little guy who was lazily leaning on Zhao Jing's arms, yawning, and said with a happy smile: "Brother Wang, I must be traveling all the way, my sister-in-law and nephew are tired, I will arrange for you to rest in the house first, and at night you and my brother are talking on foot, do you think it's good?" ”

The letter had been brought, knowing that he was happy to be busy with official business, and his wife was really tired along the way, Wang Yan and Zhao Jing stood up together and said: "It's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, Wang Yan will thank the little prince!" ”

Seeing that Wang Yan did not refuse, the smile on his happy face couldn't help but brighten, and seeing the happy smile on his face, a trace of worry in Wang Yan's heart dissipated. Because of the matter of Fang Cai, Wang Yan did not dare to say anything to refuse the good intentions of happiness.

"Brother Wang, sister-in-law, please come with me!" happily led Wang Yan and Zhao Jing out of the house, and while walking towards the guest room, he said to the maid standing at the door: "Go and call Mrs. Rong to come, just say that the old man is coming!" ”

When Happy led Wang Yan's family of three to a secluded small courtyard, Zhang Rong's graceful figure also appeared in front of the courtyard.

"Husband, I don't know which old man it is?" Before entering the door, Zhang Rong's delicate and soft voice came, and when she saw Wang Yan and Zhao Jing, she suddenly grew her mouth in shock, and a trace of imperceptible shame flashed in the depths of her eyes.

Zhang Rong has been in battle for a long time, and has very good control over her emotions, and soon regained her calm, looked at Wang Yan and Zhao Jing with a smile, and arched her hand slightly: "It turned out to be Wang Gongzi and Miss Zhao, I haven't seen them for a few years, and the two of them are more prosperous in the past, I really envy others!" ”

Wang Yan was also surprised when he saw Zhang Rong with all kinds of charms, although he had long known that he was happy and close to Zhang Rong, he didn't know that Zhang Rong had become a happy wife.

When Zhang Rong was still the old bustard of the drunken moon building, Wang Yan also coveted it, and even occasionally took advantage of it, but now the former has changed and become the wife of the little prince.

"Madame's praise, Wang Yan is ashamed!" Although there were distracting thoughts in his heart, Wang Yan and Zhao Jing were still busy returning the courtesy.

Said to Zhang Rong with a happy smile: "Rong'er, Brother Wang and his sister-in-law have come from afar, I have arranged for them to live in the mansion, and you will take care of them on my behalf." ”

"Don't worry, husband." Zhang Rong glanced at her happily gently, and then said to Wang Yan: "Brother Wang-"

Before Zhang Rong finished speaking, Wang Yan interrupted her and said, "Madam, Yan Wan doesn't dare to call 'big brother' properly, otherwise even if the little prince blames, Yan can only go out of the house." ”

Wang Yan's face was very serious, and his tone was quite firm, seeing him like this, he had to give up with joy, but he was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart.

In life, there are gains and losses, no matter how he keeps it, with the change of status, his friends are slowly moving away. The height is unbearable, and for this sentence, I am happy to finally have a deeper understanding.

Sensing that he was happy and depressed, Zhang Rong looked at him gently, reached out and gently shook his hand, so as to comfort him. Although it was only a subtle movement, the happy and depressed mood was much better, she glanced at Zhang Rong gently, shook her head with a smile, and said that she was fine, and the smile on Zhang Rong's face couldn't help but soften a little.

"Prince Wang, if you have any needs, please tell me, don't be polite!"

"Everything has Mrs. Lao Rong!" Wang Yan was obviously relieved on his face, and said with a smile.

"As it should be!" Zhang Rong shook her head with a smile, her eyes fell on the young child in Zhao Jing's arms, and a strange brilliance suddenly erupted in her eyes, "What a lovely child, Prince Wang, congratulations on you and Miss Zhao finally becoming married!" ”

As she spoke, Zhang Rong inadvertently glanced at her happiness, and a touch of melancholy and sadness slipped through the depths of her eyes, as well as deep self-blame. Among the happy women, Zhang Rong is the oldest, even though she has a good look and no traces of time can be seen on her face, she is really no longer young. When I thought that I couldn't give birth to a son and a half daughter for happiness, and I couldn't become a complete woman, I often felt sorry for myself in my heart and felt ashamed of the Gao family.

Seeing what Zhang Rong was thinking, she couldn't help but shake her hand with pity, and said in a low voice, "I don't blame you." ”

Zhang Rong looked at the joy steadily, looking at the tolerant and gentle affection in his eyes, his heart warmed, and there was inexplicably watery meaning in his beautiful eyes.

Just as he was about to speak, the porter came to report again, and a man named Liu Zhong outside the door asked to see him.

With a pang of joy in his heart, he took the greeting post handed by the porter, and it was indeed Liu Zhong's handwriting. Happy to calculate in my heart, a farewell to Jeju, today is exactly the ten-day period agreed with Liu Zhong.

"Brother Wang, sister-in-law, don't worry about staying in the mansion, I'll be lost first!" looked at Wang Yan and Zhao Jingdao happily and apologetically.

Wang Yan hurriedly shook his head and said: "Business is important, the little prince will go by himself." ”

nodded happily, glanced at Zhang Rong and left. instructed the porter to lead Liu Zhong directly to the study, and Xing Xing tidied up his appearance a little and took the lead in going to the study. There must be an understanding with the Lunatic Cult, and I am still looking forward to the upcoming negotiations.

When I was in Jeju, after some verbal wars, I was happy to basically confirm the cooperation with Baekkagong. However, there is no time for Xing to look west, and the cooperation between the two sides is more on the commercial side.

Happy once wanted to completely cut off the several major forces behind the scenes, but now it seems that this idea is a bit naïve. Where there are people, there will naturally be conflicts of interest, and even if you are happy to remove one Lunatic Cult, there will be another Lunatic Cult rising, and it may even cause new turmoil because of the breaking of the pattern, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Therefore, I hope to find a balance between each other and seek better interests for the world and the people.

Soon after he entered the study, there was a knock on the door.

happily got up, opened the door, and saw a man and two women, two old and one young, standing outside the door, two of whom were Liu Zhong and Wu Shun. Liu Zhong was as good as ever, his face was full of red light, and his spirit was strong, while Wu Shun's beautiful face was undiminished, and there was a little less coldness in his happy eyes, and there were more other looks.

When the happy eyes fell on the old woman standing beside Wu Shun, the pupils of her eyes shrank suddenly, and the muscles in her body tensed in an instant, and her heart was very alert. This old woman looks old, her eyes are cloudy, but she can clearly feel the faint pressure on her body that makes her a little depressed, as well as her extremely long and weak breathing.

Although he was vigilant in his heart, he was not afraid of Xingxing, and his face did not show anything, he turned sideways to open the door, and said with a smile: "Senior, Elder Liu, Shun'er, please!" ”
