Chapter 206: Fate
Yin Xuan's current mood is really difficult to describe, with a very resistant heart, he walked to the warm couch on Nie Qingwan's side and sat down, as soon as he sat down, Nie Qingwan stretched out his hand to Nie Yin, and Nie Yin handed her the silver bag that was packed.
Nie Qingwan took the silver bag and checked it.
And when she was squeezing the silver bag, Yin Xuan's eyelids trembled vigorously, and he trembled every time she touched it.
Yin Xuan was really frightened that she would suddenly say: "Son, kneel down to pay New Year's greetings to your mother, and your mother will send you New Year's money." ”
To tell the truth, if she really said that, even if he didn't want to, he would have to kneel and shout.
It's not that he doesn't want to recognize her as his mother, with her as powerful as his mother, he can't steal the fun, how can he refuse? It's just that she's too young, and he really can't shout.
Calling at a ten-year-old little girl, Yin Xuan felt that it was better to let him die headbuttless.
Yin Xuan's beautiful eyes were rolling, and her little heart was thinking about how to make her completely dispel this idea before she opened this mouth, at this time, she must not take a gift, as soon as the gift is taken out, she will have an excuse to send him the New Year's money and let him call his mother, so he can't mention the gift, nor can he mention everything related to the New Year.
Yin Xuan's mind flashed with inspiration, and before Nie Qingwan could speak, he quickly led the topic to the monarchs of those small countries who came to send tribute.
Yin Xuan didn't know much information, he only knew that the monarchs of small countries were here, they were blocked from the city gate, and they did see blood, which was not bad from what he had guessed before, and these monarchs of small countries really took the opportunity to send tribute to find out the attitude of Great Yin.
He also knew that Yin De had been to Nie's Mansion and had a temper tantrum when he came back.
That day, Yin De also called him to him and counted him down.
It's just a matter of counting and being angry with him.
Yin De still had some scruples about the little queen mother, so he didn't attack him, and let him get out after he was angry.
Yin Xuan doesn't know much about the rest of the matter, for example, after killing the three monarchs of small countries, what countermeasures does the little queen mother have, she will return to the palace immediately, does she have any plans to meet the monarchs of those small countries.
Yin Xuan didn't know anything about this.
After Yin Xuan mentioned this topic, Nie Qingwan threw the silver bag in his hand into him, glared at him angrily, and said, "It's just over the New Year, can't you mention something that can make me happy?" Mention this terrible thing. ”
Seeing that the topic was bypassed by him, Yin Xuan smiled secretly, looked down at the silver bag in his arms, didn't ask a word, just picked it up and stuffed it in his sleeve pocket, he dared to pack the ticket, he only needed to ask one more word, this topic would be pulled back by her again, and he couldn't shout this 'mother'.
Packing a bag of extremely heavy silver ingots, Yin Xuan said: "I also want to make you happy, but it is better to help you solve your troubles than to make you happy." ”
Hearing him say this, Nie Yin, who was sitting on the side with the silver ingots left, glanced at him, and Nie Qingwan also looked at him with a smile: "It's as if you can solve what you said." ”
Yin Xuan said: "I don't have that ability, but I can give you an idea, three stinkers, and Zhuge Liang." ”
Nie Qing smiled and beckoned to him.
Yin Xuan consciously moved next to her and sat beside her.
Nie Qingwan asked him: "Are you happy to go back to Yin's family for the New Year?" ”
Yin Xuan said: "It's okay. ”
Nie Qingwan said: "Is it good or bad?" ”
Yin Xuan looked at her sideways: "Is this important?" ”
Nie Qingwan said: "Important, you are my ......"
Before the words came out, Yin Xuan immediately said: "This year is the third year that I have kept filial piety for my parents, so I can't be absent, next year I will accompany you back to Nie Mansion for the New Year, if you want to in the future, I will go back to Nie Mansion with you for the New Year, as for whether I am happy or not, in fact, it doesn't matter at all, I haven't known what happiness is for many years, since the death of my parents, I haven't really been happy, the idea that has supported me to survive in the past three years is not to let those who want to see me die as happy, so I work hard to practice martial arts, Trying to live, that's the most important thing for me, and as for anything else, I don't have and don't need to. ”
After he said this, Nie Yin glanced at him again, but this glance was obviously different from the previous one.
For Nie Yin, what kind of life Yin Xuan lived before, what kind of exclusion and neglect he suffered, it has nothing to do with her, and she is not interested in caring, as for what kind of life Yin Xuan will live in the future, whether it is good or bad, she doesn't care, she only cares about what this child can bring to the Queen Mother in the future.
But now listening to Yin Xuan's painlessness, obviously talking about his bumpy and unbearable past, obviously his words are so distressing, but when his seven-year-old face did not have any pain at all, she still felt distressed.
It seems that as Yin Xuan said, he is just living for the sake of living, not for those living emotions, maybe since the death of his parents, this child's life has lost color.
However, the Queen Mother is just the opposite of him.
The life of the Queen Mother is colorful, even if she lives in the palace, she will spare no effort to create a variety of colorful colors to make her life and even the whole life gorgeous.
These two people, the fate is diametrically opposed, life is diametrically opposite, one was born into the royal family but is as low as dust, the other was born in the courtiers but unattainable, one of them was excluded, the other was lonely, they would go farther and farther in this world, but now, their fate is closely linked together, and their lives will be inseparable in the future.
Nie Yin couldn't help but sigh, fate is really a wonderful existence.
Nie Qingwan heard Yin Xuan's words, and the heart of a ten-year-old child also hurt, and then the heart full of motherly love overflowed more and more, she stretched out her little arm, and hugged the defenseless Yin Xuan into her arms with a snort.
Although Yin Xuan is only seven years old, three years younger than her, and her current body is not as tall as her, her body is stronger than her, she looks chubby, but she is basically supported by a thick cotton jacket.
At this moment, her short arms were around Yin Xuan, and she couldn't hold it, so she made a little more effort.
Yin Xuan: "......"
Yin Xuan was hugged by her like this, and the whole person fell on her body suddenly, her chin was against her little shoulder, and it hurt a little, her face was her fine hair, with a very light fragrance fluttered down, and the gemstone earrings on her little ears were also imprinted on his face, a little cold, a little awkward, the stinging Yin Xuan's numb heart had a different feeling, it seemed to be a little painful, but it seemed that there was something else fermenting in his heart, what was it, Yin Xuan didn't know, he was too young, he couldn't figure it out, and he couldn't catch it, Even if he caught it, he didn't understand, he just smelled the strong smell of the New Year on her body through such a fragrance, and felt this real embrace through the pain.
At that moment, Yin Xuan's heart was inexplicably warm, he didn't want to offend her, but he still couldn't control it, and reached out to hold her in his arms, at this moment, he probably longed for a warm embrace to place his sadness that he had never told anyone.
The loss of parents, the loss of family, and the only warmth and light in his life.
He doesn't want people to see it, and he doesn't want to tell others, he knows that no one will feel sorry when he says it, but he will be ridiculed, and he knows more deeply what kind of backlash he will suffer once he shows a little sadness or weakness on his face, so even if he is only seven years old, he has already interpreted the deep concealment to the point of perfection.
No one understands how deep this seven-year-old boy is.
No one understands how cold this seven-year-old boy is.
No one understands how much this seven-year-old boy longs for love and warmth.
When he held the little queen mother in his arms, the fragrance on her body, the smell of the year on her body, and the warmth on her body broke all the defenses and ice walls in his heart, which was not the most deadly, the most deadly thing was that she slapped his back with the most gentle voice, and said in his ear: "You have me now, Yin Xuan, you are no longer alone, from now on, you will be happy and happy, and you will be invincible." ”
Later, Yin Xuan thought of today and felt that it was the little queen mother's means to get him together.
But at that time, he was young, he didn't expect it.
But even if he thought of it, would he refuse?
He won't.
Her gentle words and warm embrace were like the deadliest poison in the world, bewitching his heart, making him sink willingly, making him willingly surrender.
At this time, Yin Xuan really didn't think about it so much, he just felt very happy at this moment, very happy, really happy, he couldn't express his feelings, he didn't know how to express it, but his little arm hugged her slightly, the corners of his lips slowly raised an arc, and whispered: "Well, I have you now." ”
From now on, I will only have you in my life.
Yin Xuan didn't say this, he just swore in his heart, what you give me, I will create for you, if you give me the position of the prince, I will sit firmly for you to sit on the throne of the prince, if you give me the respect of the emperor, I will guard the world for you.
Maybe Yin Xuan was still estranged from this little queen mother before, and kept the attitude of watching the fire from the other side, she was testing him, and he was also testing her, but since this day, he has wholeheartedly regarded himself as her child, as a chess piece in her hands, and is willing to be her puppet to balance the Yin royal family and the whole world.
The two little ones hugged each other like a little adult, and Nie Yin, who was waiting on the side, couldn't help laughing.
She really didn't want to laugh, but such a scene really made people laugh uncontrollably.
Hearing her laughter, Yin Xuan's ears turned red inexplicably, and he immediately let go of Nie Qingwan.
The seven-year-old boy didn't know what love was, but he looked at Nie Qingwan who withdrew from his arms for a while, and his heart was inexplicably happy, her face was red, her nose was red, her delicate lips were even more red, and her long eyelashes blinked up and down like wings under a pair of obsidian-like eyes, and Yin Xuan's heart was even more joyful. ”
Nie Qingwan looked at the insect in his hand, she knew that it was a grasshopper, green and faint, like a real thing, she didn't dare to answer it for a while, and asked him, "Where did you catch it?" Is there still such a living creature this season? ”
Yin Xuan smiled: "It's made of water and grass, doesn't it look like it?" ”
When Nie Qingwan heard that it was made of straw, she stared at it more and more curiously, stared at it for a long time, and after finding that it was really a dead thing, she reached out to take it, looked at it in four directions, and said with a smile: "It's really like!" If you don't say it's made of water and weed, I think it's true! ”
She suddenly became interested: "Is there anything else?" ”
Yin Xuan said, "It's gone." ”
Nie Qingwan said, "Why did you just make one?" ”
Yin Xuan said: "One is enough, how many more do you want?" ”
Nie Qingwan pouted: "One is not fun, you make up a few more, and when the time comes, we will play together, how boring it is for me to play alone." ”
Yin Xuan looked at her, and slowly smiled at the corners of her eyes, this little queen mother is really very playful, if she gets angry one day, she will coax her with things to play, and make sure that she is coaxed one by one.
Yin Xuan said: "Then I'll make up a few more when I'm free, so that you can have enough." ”
Nie Qingwan nodded again and again: "Okay, okay." ”
She excitedly placed the grasshopper on the table, flicked it with her hand, and watched it jump three times, and then she herself was amused by herself.
The couch in the carriage in winter is like a warm pit, there is a charcoal fire burning inside, it is very hot, and after a while, Nie Qingwan's forehead is sweating, she is very hot, let Nie Yin take off the cotton coat outside for her, Nie Yin took it off, and wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, and said: "Don't play, the more you play, the hotter it gets, and then play when you return to the palace, it's not interesting for you to play alone, isn't it?" ”
Nie Qingwan was actually quite energetic to play alone, but it was really hot, so she put away the grasshopper and put it in her sleeve pocket, and lay down on the couch with a soft cotton body, asking for water.
Nie Yin was folding her clothes, Yin Xuan poured water, helped her up, and fed her to drink.
After she finished drinking, she sat cross-legged on the couch and asked Yin Xuan: "Do you think I will announce that the monarchs of those small countries will enter the palace to meet them when I return to the palace, or will I let them dry for a few more days?" ”
Yin Xuan put the cup back, raised his eyelids and glanced at her, probably looking at the look on her face, but without seeing anything, he said to himself: "How did the Queen Mother deal with the three small monarchs who were killed?" ”
Nie Qingwan said, "Send someone to send their bodies back." ”
Nie Qingwan told Yin Xuan about the person who sent it, and when Yin Xuan heard that one of the people was Nie Xifeng, the seven-year-old immature brow raised slightly in surprise, but he didn't ask anything, the things that Xia Qian, who was in his forties, understood after analyzing it was here at the seven-year-old Yin Xuan, and he understood it in a matter of seconds, he didn't ask anything else, only asked: "Then is the person back now?" ”
Nie Qingwan said, "No." ”
Yin Xuan asked, "Didn't the matter get done?" ”
Nie Qingwan's pink lips hooked a faint sneer: "This just exposes the attitude of these countries, and of course, it also makes others see the incompetence of my courtiers." ”
Yin Xuan didn't dare to answer this.
Nie Qingwan didn't really want to ask Yin Xuan what to do, what to do, she had her own rules in her heart, she just wanted to know at which critical point his wisdom was.
Seeing that Yin Xuan stopped talking, Nie Qingwan didn't ask him.
These days, she has seen the wisdom and foolishness of this child very clearly.
A person knows when to say and when not to do, then he also knows when to do it and when not to do it, and when to do it and when not to do it, then he knows very well what to do and what not to do.
Nie Qingwan said: "Although I really want to see them, see where they are sacred, and dare to show their fangs to Da Yin, but it is really those three countries that do not give face, since this is the case, then leave them alone for the time being, if they don't even have this little patience, how can they have the patience to be a long-term submissive king?" ”
Yin Xuan pursed her lips and hummed in a low voice, the little queen mother did this just to grind the dissatisfaction and anger of those small monarchs, until they turned from wolves to sheep, she would let them into the city.
As the king of a country, it is impossible not to even understand the mind of a ten-year-old girl, right?
If you really can't understand it, this monarch won't do it.
But if you can't understand it but pretend not to understand, and deliberately work against Da Yin, then don't blame the little queen mother for being ruthless.
In the eyes of Yin Xuan, who is now seven years old, this ten-year-old little queen mother is no longer a good person.
All the way back to the palace, Nie Qingwan went to sleep under Nie Yin's service, Ren Ji put the folds that he brought back to Nie's mansion back to the study, Yin Xuan stood for a while, there was nothing to do, so he went to practice martial arts.
Yin Xuan could vaguely feel that these martial arts would be very useful in the future, so he went to practice martial arts during the day, and continued to practice martial arts after eating at night, and practiced until the second half of the night before returning to the house to sleep.
Ren Ji would report Yin Xuan's dynamics to Nie Qingwan every day, Nie Qingwan knew that Yin Xuan had been practicing martial arts hard day and night these days, and at night when the cold wind was howling, she put on a fox fur, held a stove in her hand, and went to Yin Xuan's courtyard accompanied by Nie Yin and Ren Ji.
Nie Qingwan didn't alarm Yin Xuan, just stood there and watched.
Seven-year-old Yin Xuan's martial arts are superior among his peers, but here in Ren Ji, his martial arts are still in the low-level stage, and here in Nie Yin, his martial arts are also in the low-level stage, accompanied by Ren Ji and Nie Yin, Yin Xuan didn't find that there were three more people in his courtyard, he just practiced the sword selflessly.
Nie Qingwan looked at it for a while, and said to Ren Ji: "The Son of Heaven Sword is asking Emperor Mountain, whether the emperors of the Great Yin Dynasty have always been hereditary or by bloody competition, they have to go to Emperor Ask Mountain to take the Sword of Heaven in person, so as to rule the four seas, you say that with his current efforts, when will he be able to take out the Sword of Heaven and become the real prince." ”
Ren Ji pondered for a while, and said: "With the progress of ordinary people's martial arts, at least twenty years, so the era when the kings of the Great Yin Dynasty really ruled the Great Yin was from the age of thirty, Yin Xuan needed a few years, and I couldn't see that this child had a ruthless energy in his heart, and no one knew how far he could play." ”
Nie Qingwan said, "Help him take out the Son of Heaven Sword as soon as possible." ”
Ren Ji rolled his eyes and whispered, "Understood." ”
The sword of the Son of Heaven is the sword of Shang Fang, that is a god that has gone through thousands of years, has gone through many emperors, and has survived to this day, the divine soldier has been inherited by generations of emperors, the anger is extremely heavy, the evil spirit is extremely heavy, the king is also extremely heavy, the Son of Heaven is critically ill, or the Son of Heaven does not have the ability to suppress this sword, this sword will automatically return to the Emperor Mountain, waiting for the appearance of the next strong man, ask the Emperor Mountain 9981 dangerous pass, the pass is a life and death calamity, the person who can break through to the end is the owner of the Sword of the Son of Heaven, and it is also the emperor of Tianding.
The next day, Yin Xuan wanted to practice martial arts again, Nie Qingwan called out to him, and when he came to his side, Nie Qingwan threw him a book, Yin Xuan paused, took the book and glanced at it, and saw that the book was written on the title of 'Topography of the Ten Eastern Kingdoms', he squinted his eyes, and looked up at Nie Qingwan again.
Recently, he found that she often holds books to read, except for eating and sleeping, she spends all her time reading books, and she doesn't even play on swings, even if the weather is sunny, she just holds books and sits in the sun to read.
Yin Xuan has no interest in reading, he just wants to improve his martial arts now, Ren Ji doesn't know where to get him two sword books, the sword book is simply amazing, he almost forgot to sleep and eat to practice, with the help of those two sword books, his internal strength and swordsmanship have obviously improved a lot, and he himself can feel that he is stronger than before.
Usually the little queen mother doesn't call him, let him be free, but today she stopped him.
Looking at the name on the title of this book again, Yin Xuan realized that the little queen mother is just reading books these days, she is clearly making preparations before the war, the ten countries in the east refer to the ten small countries east of Dayin, most of them are land countries, a few two countries are hilly terrain, prone to drought, and the most large Yin water conservancy, therefore, in order to borrow the great Yin water conservancy, benefit the country and the people, they are attached to the big Yin, last year's tribute abnormal list, there are no these ten countries at all, it's just that Nanfeng, Baishui and Baichuan want to come to Dayin, It is necessary to pass through the land of the ten countries, could it be that for this reason, the little queen mother also has to implicate these ten countries?
Or, because Nanfeng, Baishui and Baichuan have also developed water conservancy in recent years, and the relationship with the Eastern Ten Countries is getting better and better, the little Queen Mother is afraid that the Eastern Ten Nations will become chicken ribs and wants to cut them off, or is it to block the traitorous roads of Nanfeng, Baishui and Baichuan, and first pocket these ten countries to cut off the back road of these three countries?
Or is it just watching and playing?
With Yin Xuan's understanding of the little queen mother, it is impossible for her to purely watch and play, then she definitely has a plan.
Figure what?
Except for the territory of the ten countries, Yin Xuan couldn't think of anything else.
It's just that the ten countries are divided into security and security, even if they really have a rebellious heart, they are not superficial, and if Da Yin starts to grab other people's territory first, it will cause great anger among the people.
Yin Xuan's eyes rolled and asked Nie Qingwan, "Are you letting me read?" ”
Nie Qingwan said: "Well, don't just know how to practice martial arts, you also have to read books, and combine work and rest." ”
Yin Xuan's forehead twitched slightly, can he say that sword practice is easy for him, and reading books is labor? If he doesn't read, he won't get tired at all. But Yin Xuan knew that he couldn't say this.
Even if he really hates reading, he has to use all his patience to sit here and read.
Three days later, Nie Xifeng sent the good news back, the letter wrote that the kings of the three small countries have been buried, the people of the three countries have also been appeased, the three countries will elect the next king, and the king will come to Dayin to worship as soon as he takes office.
When I received this letter, the first month had passed, and Dayin ushered in the spring equinox in February, although the climate was still cold, but the north wind was decreasing, the rain and snow were decreasing, and the sunshine was more.
It's a good day.
Nie Qingwan handed the letter sent back by Nie Xifeng to Yin Xuan beside him, Yin Xuan took it and read it, and after reading it, he said: "Then is the Queen Mother going to meet the other monarchs of other small countries who are still in the post house outside the city gate?" ”
Nie Qingwan smiled and said, "The weather is very good today, let's go out, let's go outside the city." ”
Yin Xuan's thin lips pursed slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at her.
Nie Qingwan said: "You personally take Feng Chang to welcome the monarchs of the small country into the city, and then tell them that the palace is outside the city." ”
