Chapter Forty-Eight: Dong En's Childhood Confidant
Yinghui's enemy is naturally not Yingfeng alone. At this moment, the Huadu Kingdom wantonly launched an attack at this time.
Xue Xin, who had sent away Master Xingchang, was even more depressed, she sat in her room all day, and she didn't seem to need to be guarded, and she wouldn't take a step outside. The food delivered was also eaten casually, like a mechanical body reaction. Obviously in good health and uninjured, he will be helped out by his subordinates to bask in the sun every day to obtain energy. Although she was angry when she looked at her like this, she was inevitably distressed. It's just that there are more important things to do at the moment, so I don't pay attention to Xue Xin.
Xue Xin only knew that she was a pawn that was poisoned in the Eagle Country, but she didn't know that she was just one of the pawns. If you want to fight, how can it be as simple as arranging a small flower to poison a poisonous Eagle King? Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side can survive a hundred battles, Xue Xin is not the first, let alone the only one. Dong En is the person he trusts the most, and he is also the person who deals with the people of Eagle Country the most. Dong En can be regarded as a famous family, if there is no war, he is the best candidate in his heart to be married to Xue Xin. But in the face of war, not to mention this brother-in-law who has no words, even his own sister and his husband, which one can't sacrifice for the country?
Above the court, everyone expressed their opinions, but the unanimous thing was that the existing territory of Huadu was about to be unable to meet the increasing population, and fighting for territory through war was the only thing they could try.
"Queen Xuan, the King of the Eagle Country is already dying, and His Royal Highness Xue Xin's efforts have paved a very good road for us." One of the ministers said that he called him His Highness at this time because of the reward he received for the sacrifice he had made at the risk of dying to the Eagle Kingdom. In the country of Huadu, only the future queen, the daughter of the current queen and the queen's sister, can be called her highness, and the queen's husband is called the king. If the "Highness" and the "King" are of the same generation, they are the same level of figures. The country of Huadu is ruled by the queen, and her husband assists her, and acts on behalf of the queen during her pregnancy. Now she is named Her Royal Highness, the same as the "Second Queen". It's just that this news, Xue Xin didn't know it at the moment, and Zhu Bi saw that she was immersed in pain all day long, and the war was imminent, so she postponed the ceremony of rewarding.
After hearing this, Ju Bi was a little comforted, and turned to ask Dong En: "Eagle Wind, is there any news?" ”
"Back to the Queen, when Eagle Wind learned that we refused to practice with her, she was very disdainful, as if we had given our small country a chance but we didn't cherish it. also threatened to destroy Huadu if he became the king. It's that Yingming, and I've been in contact with us. Dong En replied.
"That Eagle Ming seems to be quite deep in the city, and he will not sincerely cooperate with us. As for Eagle Wind, he was supposed to use him to see the state of the Eagle Civil Unrest, but when they were fighting with each other, we took advantage of the situation. "Jubi analyzes the situation, and it looks like it is inevitable.
"Yes, Queen Chrysanthemum." The officials responded.
"I just don't know, will His Highness Xue Xin participate in the war?" Dong En knew that there were many things that should not be asked, but Xue Xin was a key part of this. If Xue Xin participates in the war and sprinkles flower poison with her skills, the soldiers of the Eagle Country will be much weaker, but if Xue Xin is accidentally captured, then the Eagle King will not only be able to detoxify, but the combat effectiveness of Huadu's side will also be halved.
"I'll go talk to her again. Now, it is impossible to let Xue Xin go undercover again, not only can she not succeed, but we will become passive. "Ju Bi is also very helpless, in the final analysis, it is his own sister, if Xue Xin is really so ignorant, he can only rely on other soldiers in Huadu Country.
The officials dispersed, and only Zhu Bi and Dong En remained.
"Dong En, if we win this battle, you have to take care of Xue Xin." Jubi was a little worried, the war was won, and she might not be able to survive to the end.
"Dong En understands." What Dong En admires most about Jubi is that he doesn't have too many high-sounding and comforting words, but focuses on what he should do.
Dong En quietly went to see Chi Xin a few times, and when she saw Chi Xin's unruly appearance, she didn't feel distressed, but she just said anything to Chi Xin, her face was like ashes, she didn't react, and she completely lost her lively and stubborn appearance in the past. After retreating from the court, Dong En thought that he was about to go to the battlefield, although he didn't know if he would go with him, but he was still relieved of his current appearance, so he entered Xue Xin's dormitory again.
Xue Xin was lying on the bed, her eyes were looking straight at the ceiling, looking a little scary, Dong En didn't know what she was thinking.
Dong En thinks back that when he first saw her bright appearance, that heart-warming feeling is still unforgettable.
At that time, both of them were at the age of children, and Zhu Xin had not yet inherited the queen, and Xue Xin was a little one who followed her sister all day long.
After being reprimanded by her sister, she was very aggrieved. A person cries without hesitation, without hiding her aroma.
"Where did the little flowers come from, they can't control their fragrance?" Dong En wanted to step forward to comfort, but accidentally, the comfort turned into ridicule.
"Where did you come from, a wild boy, and you dare to laugh at this princess?" Xue Xin had never seen anyone so bold as to speak to her like this.
Only then did Dong En see that it was Princess Xue Xin. This little princess was born petite and cute, with tears on her pink and tender little face.
Being scolded by Xue Xin Dong En just looked at her and smirked when I saw the pitiful appearance and didn t realize the courtesy of the monarch and the minister.
"Princess Ben is asking, what are you smiling at?" Xue Xin looked at his stupid appearance, and his mood improved a lot.
"My name is Dong En." Dong En wants Xue Xin to know him and remember him.
"Who is Dong Eun?" Xue Xin asked.
"Dong Eun is me." Dong En replied.
Xue Xin sneered and laughed: "Okay, Dong En, I know." ”
Dong En smiled at her and was very happy. Seeing that Xue Xin was leaving, he followed her.
"What are you doing with me?" Xue Xin asked puzzled.
"I don't know, I just want to follow." Dong En replied honestly.
"If you want to follow, then follow it. Then you're going to answer all my questions. Xue Xin didn't bother him, but felt that he could let her relieve her inner unhappiness.
"Just ask." Dong En was very happy when he got the permission.
"How did you get back to the palace?" Xue Xin asked as she walked, not looking at him.
"I came with my father." Dong En kept looking at Xue Xin and didn't look at the road.
"Who is your father?" Xue Xin asked again. Sometimes Xue Xin accompanied her sister to study and knew the names of some ministers in the court.
"Dong Wu." Dong En replied one by one.
"It turned out to be him." Xue Xin knew Dong Wu and knew that Dong Wu was a very important minister, because every time the queen mother would ask Minister Dong Wu a lot of opinions.
"Why did your father bring you into the palace?" Xue Xin saw that he was just the right age, and guessed that he should enter the palace to study, and then inherit his father's official position.
"Learn." Dong En replied succinctly.
Sure enough, it was the same as what Xue Xin thought in his heart.
"And one last question, do you know the Eagle Country?" Xue Xin lowered her voice and asked mysteriously.
