Nie Qingwan said with a smile: "The first time I saw Brother Sixteen wearing such formal clothes, I thought it looked good, I also thought it was quite novel, and I thought it was even weird, so I laughed." “

After she finished speaking, she stood up, crossed her hands behind her back, circled around Nie Bei twice in a fashionable manner, and reached out to pull the clothes on Nie Bei's body, and said with a smile: "Little catcher? “

Nie Bei took her hand away, tapped her forehead, and said while pouring water for herself: "The official is not big, and it can't be compared with you, the queen mother who is in power, but when you come back next time, your sixteenth brother will no longer wear this official uniform." “

Nie Qing smiled, stroked his chin and looked at him, his eyes were cute and shining: "Brother Sixteen likes to solve cases so much? “

Nie Bei said: "Well, I like it very much. “

Nie Qingwan walked over, sat down next to him, raised her little face and said, "Is there any Gonzo?" “

Nie Bei looked at her, drank the water in the cup slowly, and then said: "Where can I catch up with your interesting things with this little bit of fun, the fifth brother and the ninth brother came back this time to share with the family the battle you encountered in Fengqiu, of course." That battle has spread to every corner of the Great Yin Imperial Capital, and now everyone knows that you, the Queen Mother, almost lost Fengqiu, I heard that Yin Xuan saved you, and he almost failed to save the Son of Heaven Sword in order to save you, I just listened to it and felt that the battle was very dangerous, and I don't know how you fought at that time, the fifth brother and the ninth brother said that you were not injured, are you really not injured? “

Nie Qingwan smiled and said: "The fifth brother and the ninth brother both said that I was not injured, of course I was not injured, it was Yin Xuan who was injured, but I was also hurt a little bit, and now I have recovered, didn't the second uncle tell you?" “

Nie Bei sighed: "He only said that you were good, but we all knew that you were definitely not good at that time." “

Nie Qingwan said: "It's really good now. “

Nie Bei said, "Don't you go next time, right?" “

Nie Qingwan looked at him.

Nie Beidao: "Now that there are Da Yin troops stationed in the south and west, Yin Xuan also has experience in fighting, and my Da Yin has no less than one million soldiers, to deal with those small countries, you don't need to go to the front line in person, just send the old general to lead a million lions to step on the level." “

Nie Qingwan stroked her chin and said, "That makes sense." “

Nie Beidao: "How long will you stay when you come back this time?" “

Nie Qingwan said, "It won't be too long. “

Nie Beidao: "Next time you send troops, won't you go?" “

Nie Qingwan pondered for a while and nodded, "Hmm." I don't personally attend every battle, you're right, Yin Xuan already has experience in battle, next time he will be in command, presiding over the entire battlefield, and I won't go to the western conquest. “

Nie Bei smiled and asked her, "Yin Xuan didn't come back with you?" “

Nie Qingwan said, "I came back, I didn't bring him over." “

Nie Bei snorted, glanced out of the half-open window, and saw that the hour was not early, he said, "It's late." Go back to sleep, I'll sleep too, and I'll have to get up early tomorrow morning. “

Nie Qingwan got up with a smile, patted his little catcher official uniform again before leaving, and said with a smile: "It's not quite suitable for you, hurry up and change it." “

After saying that, he turned around and bounced away.

Last time, the troops brought 120,000 elite soldiers, and more than 90,000 were lost, leaving only more than 20,000, there are indeed many soldiers in Dayin, but the territory of Dayin is vast, and the border garrison has divided half of the strength of the Dayin soldiers, and the maximum number of people who really guard in Gyeonggi is two million, and the two million soldiers Nie Qingwan will not move, so when he returned to the palace from Nie Mansion, Nie Qingwan passed on Wu Tao, the secretary of the military department, and Nie Wujing, the prime minister of Wucheng, and issued them an order to recruit troops.

As soon as the order was given, the entire Da Yin entered the craze of joining the army.

After that, until all the small countries perished and belonged to the territory of the Great Yin, for ten years in between, the young men of the Great Yin were all proud to join the army, whether they had status or no identity, men who had reached the age of twenty would rush to join the army, during that period, the soldiers of the Great Yin entered the strongest period in history.

Nie Qingwan really didn't plan to go in person for the expedition to the west, the most dangerous enemy was not the small country in the west, but the long-dormant Qu Shang, so she had to investigate this person well before deciding on the strategy in the future.

When Yin Xuan came over to greet Nie Qingwan, Nie Qingwan said his plans and arrangements, Yin Xuan listened quietly, and after listening to him, he said, "You mean, let me lead the troops to conquer the west?" “

Nie Qingwan said: "Well, when the recruits report and fill the barracks, you will join Feng Chang and Yin Tianye, as well as Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei and Chen Wenqi, each of whom will lead 200,000 elite soldiers, integrate 1.2 million lions, and go to collect the west." “

Yin Xuan was puzzled: "Why did you bring so many soldiers this time?" “

Nie Qingwan said: "Because I don't allow you to make any mistakes, plus you are the first time to be the boss, you naturally want to win, and there is no need to waste too much time on the expedition to the west, if my guess is correct, the monarchs of several leading countries in the west have already sent a distress signal to Qu Shang, as for whether Qu Shang should or not, I can't guess, and whether he should or shouldn't, it's always good to bring more soldiers." “

Yin Xuan squinted, thinking of Qu Shang, his hand clenched for no reason, if there was a chance, he would definitely pick his skin with his own hands.

Yin Xuan lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, no matter whether the Qu Shang faction sends reinforcements or not, I won't let you down." “

Nie Qingwan said: "Well, I will leave after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I will come back for the New Year." “

Yin Xuan replied, and after returning to the Prince's Mansion, he asked Suihai to call Feng Chang, Yin Tianye, Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei and Chen Wen, as well as their deputy generals. Several people gathered in the study of the prince's mansion, discussing the affairs of the west and studying the map of the west to formulate the best methods of warfare.

In fact, there is no need to be in such a hurry, because the time to send troops is after the Mid-Autumn Festival, but there are many small countries in the west, and the time given by the Queen Mother is not long, so it is necessary to formulate a combat method for each country in advance, and then Feng Chang and Yin Tianye, Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei, and Chen Wenqi will come to the prince's mansion every day to report, and occasionally Yin Xuan will take them to the new barracks together, in short, since that day, Yin Xuan is often a dragon who sees the head but does not see the end.

Nie Qingwan didn't care about him, she concentrated on investigating her own affairs.

Tuoba Mingyan has her own residence in the palace, saying that she is a slave and maid, not like, saying that she is the master, not like, her Fuguan Palace has palace maids and eunuchs, but there is no one to serve her, and her daily life is responsible for herself.

The prince is still young, he didn't marry a wife, except for the queen mother, the hostess, he didn't see any woman in the harem, Tuoba Mingyan just wanted to find other people to chat and climb the relationship, and he couldn't climb the relationship, and it may be because of the reason that Da Yin is now fully preparing for war, and there is no party in the palace, the queen mother is a busy person, Tuoba Mingyan just wants to kiss her, and he doesn't dare to go when she is busy, so most of the time Tuoba Mingyan stays in his Fuguan Palace, studies Tuoba Clan's incense-making books, and then chats with the palace maids and eunuchs in the palace, Inquire about some interesting things about the palace of Da Yin, and then take out the spices or other rouge and other things made by yourself, and share them with them, over time, Tuoba Mingyan has adapted to such a life, carefree, not like the master but even the master, living a life of abundant food and clothing and relying on the queen mother.

A few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace was lively, and Yin Xuan, who had not seen anyone for almost a month, also appeared, but when he appeared, he seemed to have grown taller again, and his face became more handsome, and his eyes were more calm and profound, he came to see Nie Qingwan.

Nie Qingwan was discussing with Ren Ji and Nie Yin about the time to go back to Nie's house for Mid-Autumn this year, and after Yin Xuan came, Nie Qingwan asked him: "Do you want to go back to Nie's house with me for Mid-Autumn or go back to Yin's family?" “

In the past, Yin Xuan was squeezed out and oppressed by the Yin royal family, if it weren't for his parents, he would not want to go back, but now Yin Xuan has already become a person that the Yin royal family does not dare to offend, plus Yin Xuan has not visited his parents for a long time, this is always fighting outside, he has not burned incense and paper to his parents during several Qingming periods, and he still spent the Chinese New Year outside last year, and he did not go to their graves to take a look, so Yin Xuan refused to go to the Nie family for mid-autumn. He said back to Yin.

Nie Qingwan didn't force him, and said to him: "It's okay, having a good relationship with the Yin royal family is also good for you to stabilize the throne, and you miss your father and mother too, right?" “

Yin Xuan lowered his eyes silently and said, "Hmm." “

Nie Qingwan sighed: "This is really my own mother, but it's different, and I don't see you being so attentive to me." “

Yin Xuan was stunned for a moment, and after understanding her words, he almost blurted out: "I have always put you in my heart, although you are not my mother, but you are my most important person, and you are also the person I cherish the most in the future." “

Nie Qingwan sneered when she saw him so eager to explain.

Ren Ji also smiled and said to Yin Xuan: "Don't worry, prince, the queen mother is joking with you." “

Nie Yin raised his hand and poked Nie Qingwan's little head: "You just bully the prince to be careful and soft, and be obedient to you." “

Nie Qingwan looked at Yin Xuan with a smile: "Hearing you say this, I have become the person in your heart?" “

Yin Xuan looked at her, his gaze was very deep, and after a while, he lowered his eyes again, the roots of his ears were slightly red, and he whispered: "Hmm." “

No one really takes this word seriously, just laughs it off.

But they didn't know that Yin Xuan's word was really from the bottom of his heart, and at this time, no one would have thought that Nie Qingwan's quipping words would become a prophecy, and she became an obsession that Yin Xuan's heart could no longer pull out, and this obsession eventually made Yin Xuan turn from a human to a demon, killing his mother and killing gods.

After Yin Xuan left, Nie Qingwan told Ren Ji and Nie Yin about the time to go back to Nie's Mid-Autumn and go back a day earlier.

Nie Yin asked, "Do you want to bring Tuoba Ming cigarettes?" “

Nie Qingwan thought for a while and said, "Don't bring it, let her live in the palace." “

Ren Ji said: "There are only two masters in this palace, you and the prince, one of you has returned to the Nie Mansion, and the other has returned to the Yin family, and there is no master in the palace for you to leave, let Tuoba Mingyan stay in the palace alone, is it okay?" “

Nie Qingwan lowered her eyes lightly and said softly, "So this is a good opportunity to test whether she is really at peace." “

Ren Ji was stunned for a moment, and Zhuan Er smiled.

Nie Yin said: "It's still the Queen Mother's thoughtfulness." “

Nie Qingwan didn't respond, in fact, it wasn't that she was thoughtful, but she wouldn't take Tuoba Mingyan back to Nie's Mansion at all, the last time she saved her was entirely because the person who chased and killed her at that time was the Qiang royal family, if it wasn't for the Qiang royal family, she wouldn't have made a move, she met her Pingshui, she didn't know her at all, what did she have to do with her whether she was alive or dead?

Although there are many people in this world who will bully the weak, a few big men besiege a weak woman, and it seems that this woman is quite pitiful. It's the party who is sympathetic, but when you don't know the root of the matter, it is a deviation to draw conclusions, maybe the weaker the person, the more vicious?

Saving her is not because she is a weak woman, nor because she is being hunted down, but because those people from the Qiang royal family, but they not only begged for people, but also destroyed her clan, leaving her homeless, and she happened to be very resigned to her fate, and she was very willing to follow her, and Nie Qingwan didn't mind making room for her to survive.

But giving her a place to live doesn't mean that she can enter her world in a grand way.

She can live in the palace. But it's just life.

Nie Qingwan returned to Nie's house in mid-autumn, had a reunion dinner with her family, and went out to watch the lanterns with several children of the Nie family in the evening.

When I met Chen Wenqi when I was looking at the lanterns, Chen Wenqi pestered her, pulling her around the flower market, her face was covered with a veil, no one knew her appearance, but Chen Wenqi recognized her at a glance, which made Nie Qingwan very puzzled.

Standing under the colorful lanterns, she was dressed in a light purple skirt, her face was also covered with a purple veil, her long hair was splashed with ink, her fourteen-year-old body was not tall or short, she tilted her head slightly, and asked Chen Wenqi with a smile: "How do you know who I am?" Am I not covering my face? “

After speaking, he was quite puzzled, reached out and touched the veil, and lowered his little head: "Isn't this veil able to block my face?" “

Chen Wen laughed, and leaned over his little head and whispered to her: "Even if you cover your head, I can recognize you." “

Nie Qingwan blinked: "Really? “

Chen Wenqi said: "Of course it's true. “

Nie Qingwan was puzzled, lowered her head and looked at herself repeatedly: "How did you recognize me?" Could it be that my clothes have betrayed me? No, my clothes are very ordinary. “

Chen Wenqi thought to himself, how to recognize you, in fact, he himself doesn't know. It was probably the familiar aroma on her body, or the familiar back of her, or the snow spirit hidden in his heart was too profound, so in the vast sea of people, as soon as she appeared, he recognized it at a glance.

Chen Wenshu said: "I don't know, probably because I look at your back is quite familiar, what lantern do you like, I'll buy you one." “

Chen Wen cut her hand, and after holding it, he held it tightly, Nie Yin and Ren Ji did not follow Nie Qingwan, Nie Qingwan came out to play with the children of the Nie family, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to follow, but Nie Yin did not come, but Ren Ji protected Nie Qingwan in the dark, and when he saw that Nie Qingwan and Chen Wenqiu met, he smiled, and did not appear, still protecting in secret.

Nie Qingwan loves colorful things, Chen Wenqi didn't know about it before, but later he gradually knew, so he bought Nie Qingwan the most beautiful lantern.

The lantern West Market of the Mid-Autumn Festival is open all night long, almost all night long, but whenever you want to play. can let you play enough, as long as Nie Qingwan is not in the palace, not in the position of the queen mother, she is very fun-loving, and she can play, the first half is Chen Wenshu with her jumping around, and the second half is when she takes Chen Wenqiu everywhere.

Chen Wenqi really convinced her, looking at her little arms and legs, she can run.

After chasing her, he grabbed her by the waist, ignored her kicking legs and two grasping arms, found a place where no one was around, climbed over a wall, flew up the eaves, and lowered her.

Nie Qingwan glared at him: "What are you doing?" “

Chen Wen smiled, reached out to remove her veil, he looked at her playing with the red face, imprinted in the cold disc-like moonlight, alive and fragrant, he pursed his thin lips, took her hand, sat on the roof of the tile, and said to her: "Rest for a while, aren't you tired?" “

Nie Qingwan said: "I'm not tired. “

As she said that, she was about to get up, but Chen Wenqi held her down again, turned her head in a different direction, and asked her to look at the lantern street in the West Market.

Nie Qingwan's eyes widened suddenly, and her hands danced excitedly: "Wow! It's beautiful! “

Her eyes were shining and she looked at the Milky Way-like lantern street, without blinking, Chen Wenqi looked at her, thinking, it is indeed so beautiful, your galaxy is far away, but my galaxy is close in front of you, you are the most beautiful galaxy in my eyes.

After that day, Nie Qingwan especially likes to stand on a high place to see the scenery below, and also likes to stand on a high place to watch the excitement below.

After the mid-autumn, Yin Xuan took Feng Chang and others to pack the army and set off to the west, they went out this time with a lot of soldiers, but they still left in the dead of night, did not alarm a single person, nor did they disturb any minister, on the night of the departure, Yin Xuan went to Nie Qingwan to say goodbye, when he turned around, he didn't control it, and stretched out his hand to pull her into his arms and hugged her fiercely.

He won't be back until the Chinese New Year, and he's never been away from her for so long.

If only I could kiss her.

He wanted to kiss her.

But no.

There were two pairs of eyes next to him, if they could see him kissing her. Maybe what they think, and the Queen Mother, will she slap him off the position of the prince, even if they don't think about him liking her, but after a long time, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not be suspicious.

So in the end, Yin Xuan just hugged Nie Qingwan, let go of her, and left without looking back.

Nie Qingwan rubbed the aching arm that was hugged by Yin Xuan, frowned and thought, what are you doing with such great strength, you are still unwilling to let you lead a soldier? Haven't you always wanted to be awe-inspiring? It's majestic enough.

Nie Qingwan also went out, but she didn't leave the palace. Just let Ren Ji hug her, stand on the highest eaves, and look through the moonlight at the troops who were marching out of the city gate in an orderly and quiet manner.

As soon as the news spread that the prince of Da Yin personally took five generals and a million lions to lead the army to conquer various small countries in the west, the west was panicked, the east was shaken, and the north began to actively prepare for war. The leading kings of the east and north came to the door to achieve the goal of uniting and confronting the Great Yin.

During the Chinese New Year, Yin Xuan did not come back, but the good news came back to the palace, and after Nie Qingwan read it, she announced that Xia Qian had entered the palace and asked him to bring some experienced Wenchen to the west.

In this way, Xia Qian shouldered the important task of integrating the western region and pacifying the people in the western region.

In February of the following year, Yin Xuan led a group of generals and soldiers to return to China, and the day they stepped into the Great Yin Imperial City, it snowed heavily, but the soldiers were uniform and still obeyed the instructions of the Queen Mother. Entering the city late at night, without disturbing a single person or person, Yin Xuan rode at the forefront, his hair and body were covered with a thin layer of snow, but he was quickly dispersed by a strong internal force, and then another thin layer of snow fell, and was dispersed by him with internal force.

Walking to the city gate, waiting for the moment when the city gate opened, he tilted his head slightly, looked in the direction of the palace, thinking that she was already asleep at this time, right?

He left in August last year, and now he is back in February, and he hasn't seen her for nearly half a year, maybe he's grown taller, or maybe he's even better-looking.

Yes, she's fifteen years old this year, she's an adult, she's a real girl.

Yin Xuan lowered his eyes, thinking about what gift he was going to give her when she was at the banquet, the city gate opened at this moment, and there were two people and two guards standing at the door, as well as a few ministers and more than twenty soldiers.

The generals on horseback saw the person in front clearly, their eyes were stunned, including Yin Xuan, who was also slightly startled, and hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and knelt forward, he knelt like this, Yin Tianye, Feng Chang, Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei, Chen Wenqi all knelt down, and the soldiers behind him also knelt down, shouting in unison: "See the Queen Mother." “

Nie Qingwan took the fox fur from Nie Yin's hand and walked over, and Ren Ji held an umbrella for her beside her.

Nie Qingwan walked up to Yin Xuan, bent down to pull him up, silently dusted off the fox fur, and draped it for him.

The ministers behind also brought fox furs over, and cut them one by one for Yin Tianye, Feng Chang, Nie Xifeng, Nie Buwei and Chen Wen.

The six generals were silent and accepted the robes in the snowstorm.
