Qin Yunuan also smiled sweetly at Leng Changxi, who was seriously tender like the sea, the two seemed to have the same heart, and the pulse was affectionate, knowing that there was an embarrassing dry cough beside them, so that the two noticed that Jing Yuanxiao had arrived not long ago.

"The old eleven and his wife have a deep affection, which is really enviable." Jing Yuanxiao smiled slowly, since he paced forward on the city wall, after holding a porcelain vase and exposing Jing Yuanchu's conspiracy, no one would think that the prince of Western Xia was a wreck.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, aren't they also Qin Se and Ming, and the plaice is deeply affectionate." Qin Yunuan praised back very generously, Jing Yuanxiao lowered his head and smiled, his face was full of sweetness.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, Prince Leng, Mrs. Leng, the emperor has summoned you in." The eunuch in charge of affairs came out to report the news, and Jing Yuanxiao was about to pace forward, but he turned around and reminded the eunuch: "Remember, this is no longer Leng Gongzi, you should call him His Highness Eleven." ”

Leng Changxi smiled lightly, waved his hand and said, "These, it doesn't matter." ”

When this conversation happened, the curtain happened to be lifted, and Jing Donghua, who was sitting inside, happened to hear the conversation outside, and some trivial matters in his hands had been dealt with, because Jing Yuanxiao's cooperation and precautions minimized the loss of this mutiny, and at the same time, the situation in Xiliang City was stable, and there was Bai Shishi, the concubine of the Jiangmen, who presided over the overall situation in the palace, so there was no need to worry.

"It's time for a change." Jing Donghua raised his head and beckoned the three of them to come in.

Jing Yuanxiao, Leng Changxi, and Qin Yunuan saluted Jing Donghua in turn, Jing Yuanxiao called himself a son, Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan still called themselves "grass people" and "people's women", and couldn't help but make Jing Donghua frown.

"Didn't you say it all? It's time to change the title. Jing Donghua seems to think that giving Leng Changxi a name is a matter of course" There was also a letter from the palace, saying that Qinghe seemed to be waking up, it seems that your medicine is very effective. Jing Donghua's later words were said to Qin Yunuan, Jing Donghua closed the fold in his hand and the list, and said to Qin Yunuan with a smile, "When you and Lao Eleven also live in the palace, I don't have to let you take care of Qinghe more, she has lived alone in Crescent Mountain for so many years, there must be many old problems all over her body, after all, that place is too cold, as for the two of you, when you return to Beijing and everything is settled, I will announce it to the world and make your identity public." ”

The more Jing Donghua said that his heart was more and more happy, and the joy between his eyebrows and eyes could not be hidden, and Jing Yuanxiao also congratulated him heartily: "Congratulations to my father for finding his beloved son, and also let me have a good and capable brother." ”

Just when all this was about to be decided by Jing Donghua, Leng Changxi replied abruptly: "Forgive the grass people for being abrupt, the grass people haven't thought about the matter of correcting their names." ”

"Huh?" Jing Donghua didn't seem to believe it, he thought that this was Leng Changxi being modest, and immediately put forward the condition, "It's okay, if you don't want to live in the palace, I can order someone to find a house with seven entrances and seven exits, so that you can live outside the palace, as long as you miss Qinghe, you can enter the palace to visit your mother at any time;

。 ”

"That's not what the grass people meant." Leng Changxi's tone was firm.

"What does that mean?" Jing Donghua raised his head slightly, "Do you want to be crowned king directly?" Want to stay away from me? I know that I have wronged you and Qinghe for more than twenty years, and this time, I want to make amends. ”

"No" Leng Changxi raised his head and said categorically, "The grass people don't like the identity of the eleventh prince of Western Xia at all, and they don't want the emperor. Tell the world about this identity. ”

As soon as Leng Changxi's words came out, Jing Yuanxiao immediately persuaded: "Eleventh brother, although Western Xia is not as strong as before, the status of the prince is a recognition of your royal bloodline, you have been away for so many years, it is time to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors." ”

Leng Changxi didn't look at Jing Yuanxiao, he just glanced down at Qin Yunuan, he knew that she supported him, and she would understand and support him no matter what he did.

"Your Majesty, please listen to me" Leng Changxi knelt down on one knee and said to Jing Donghua sincerely, "Maybe, this identity is very noble, and maybe, this identity is rare, but this identity is not warm for me, the hometown of the grass people is Daqi, and there is a father in the grass people family who can give up his life for his family, and has taken care of the grass people since he was a baby, he may not have given the grass people a supreme prince, but he gave the grass people all the care that a father can give, and he found the best master for the grass people." In order to let the masters of the world teach the grass people to practice martial arts, they can take the grass people to kneel in front of the door of the people in the mountains and fields for three days and three nights, and the father of the grass people is only one, that is, Leng Zhongxiao, the king of Ning, of Daqi. ”

Jing Donghua was already very unwilling in his heart, and the corners of his mouth twitched and asked Leng Changxi: "So, are you unwilling to recognize your ancestors and return to your ancestors?" Don't want to recognize me as a father? ”

Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan glanced at each other, and then slowly said to Jing Donghua: "The grass people are grateful to the emperor for giving the grass people life, but the Great Qi Dynasty is now under the control of Sima Rui, and the grass people's father is under huge pressure to protect everyone in the Ning Palace, and he can't share his father's worries, it is the grass people's unfilial piety, since the emperor has always felt that he is sorry for his mother and the grass people, he also asks the emperor to give the grass people a chance to fulfill their filial piety." ”

"Give?" Jing Donghua's tone was slightly raised, with doubts and a kind of self-deprecation.

He thought that this lost son would be grateful to Dade for his arrangement, at least, he accepted it calmly, but he didn't expect that he would be rejected, and even, he would be rejected so coldly and directly.

"What opportunity do you want?"

"I want to ask the emperor to borrow the 200,000 black-armored soldiers of the grass people, kill back to Daqi, punish Sima Rui, and return Daqi to peace."

"Ridiculous!" Jing Donghua grabbed a sentence, he even stood up directly, and his tone was extremely serious, "The black armor soldiers are the most elite troops in my Western Xia, and the best soldiers are selected from the army to enter the camp for training every year, and there are a total of 300,000 black armor in Western Xia, and 100,000 are stationed in the palace, how can I send you all the black armor stationed abroad, impossible!" ”

"Naturally, it's not all dispatched by the grass people." Leng Changxi knelt on one knee, clenched his fist with one hand, and respectfully pleaded, "Sima Rui, the third prince of Great Qi, controls the government, brutalizes Zhongliang, puts the emperor under house arrest, and connives, and connives, and his subordinates commit adultery, kidnapping, and extermination of humanity, this is known to everyone in the world. ”

Jing Donghua sat down slowly, there were countless lists and data maps scattered on the yellow case in front of him, one of which happened to be the territory of today's world, and now the situation is that Daqi and Xixia carved up the Central Plains, many of which are small countries, just like Liuli and Nanyue are dependent on the two countries and born, the relationship between Daqi and Xixia has been very delicate, since fifty years ago, after Daqi got rid of the control of Xixia, there is more and more of a domineering attitude on an equal footing with Xixia;

However, the two countries have a common contradiction, that is, the nomadic regime in the north is Beidi, and the culture of Beidi is backward, but the territory is huge, south to the edge of the Savage Valley, north to Changbai Mountain, east from the East China Sea, west to Langya Mountain, and Beidi is not as good as Daqi to speak, Beidi people are warlike, and there is no need for excuses and temptations to start a war.

Emotionally, Jing Donghua was really reluctant to send troops to help Leng Changxi return to his hometown, because it meant that he would lose this son forever, but intellectually, Daqi is now terminally ill, and he just needs someone to send charcoal in the snow, so cheap, it is a waste not to pick it up.

"Your Majesty, please think twice." Leng Changxi stepped forward.

"You stand down first." Jing Donghua tilted his head, unwilling to see Leng Changxi.

After Leng Changxi left with Qin Yunuan, Jing Yuanxiao stayed in the tent, Jing Donghua squinted his eyes and kneaded his slightly sour eyes with his slender fingers.

"What do you think?" Jing Donghua asked Lang Ran.

Jing Yuanxiao pondered for a moment and took a deep breath: "It's feasible." ”

"Looks like this is the general trend?" Jing Donghua seemed to be asking himself, and he seemed to be asking Jing Yuanxiao.

Jing Yuanxiao bowed his head slightly, expressed his agreement, and was about to salute and leave, Jing Donghua squinted his eyes and said leisurely: "Pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, the old thirteen is not wrong, Yuanxiao, you have been hiding from me for too long." ”

The tone was leisurely, but the attitude was solemn, Jing Yuanxiao's fingertips trembled slightly, in fact, this is Jing Donghua's temptation, it depends on how he answers, it is too big, this is the crime of bullying the king, as long as Jing Donghua speaks, he can convict Jing Yuanxiao, so that Jing Yuanxiao will never be able to turn over, if it is said well, this is a meritorious escort.

Fortunately, Jing Yuanxiao was prepared, and according to Qin Yunuan's suggestion, he said sincerely: "Erchen is guilty, but Erchen wants to ask his father, does my father know why except for Erchen and Lao Thirteen, the other four brothers died at a young age?" ”

Jing Donghua opened his eyes slightly and motioned for Jing Yuanchu to continue.

"Because of interests, there are more monks and less porridge, so there will be rebellions, wolves and less meat, so there will be competition, and there is only one position for the crown prince, but everyone is watching with their eyes, once anyone sits on it, they will become the target of everyone, but what if you think about it from another angle? If the seat is a waste that is not competitive at all, will the focus be on the waste, or on the next person who is more capable of taking its place? The corners of Jing Yuanxiao's mouth removed a trace of a bitter smile, "Erchen once regarded every brother as a sibling, but in the end, he also knew that in front of interests, siblings can be broken, in the face of power, friendship is impermanent, they fight to climb up, Erchen pretends to be stupid, just to survive." ”

Climb up, survive, what a stark contrast, this passage deeply pierced Jing Donghua's heart, he also came from the palace struggle, if it wasn't for the battle for the heir, he would not have left the Qinghe River in the Crescent Mountain, the pain and pain, he was very clear, this is also Qin Yunuan's purpose.

"Alright, you can go down."

Jing Yuan saluted and left, and as soon as Fang came out of the camp, he saw Leng Changxi and Qin Yunuan waiting for him outside.
