"How dare you, you can still run around with such a rumor, and you're not afraid that someone will arrest you as a monster?" Duanmu said.

"A monster like me, ordinary people should run away immediately when they see me, who dares to come close and take me away, I'm tired of it?" Chenguang bent his eyebrows and smiled.

Duanmu snorted and laughed: "Emperor Longxi is also bold, he actually wants to marry you, and he is not afraid that he will have a short life if he marries you and goes back." ”

Chenguang flattened his mouth and retorted: "Xiao Runcai will not live a short life, Xiao Run will live a hundred years!" ”

Duanmu Yan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and asked lightly: "Do you really want to marry him, don't you fool him?" ”

Chenguang looked at him with a pair of big innocent eyes, and asked with a smile: "Of course it's true, why do you think it's fake?" ”

"Would you be willing to enter the harem and be the queen? Although you can stay in the dormitory for a whole year without going out, I can't imagine the picture of you sitting in the palace every day waiting for a group of concubines to greet you. ”

"Didn't you always tell me to go home and find a man to marry and raise children?" Chenguang said with a smile.

Duanmu was silent, he said so, but he didn't think that she would do that, after all, she always felt a bit wasteful when she really went home to marry and teach children.

"Xiao Yan." Morninglight called him with a smile.

Duanmu Yan frowned: "I told you a few times not to call me that." "It's not big, it's not small.

Chenguang didn't listen at all, she said with a smile: "Xiao Yan, the Five Congresses will be busy again after the Five Congresses, I'm afraid it will be too late to meet, so it's better to talk about the things after the Five Congresses." ”

Duanmu Yan looked at her with cold eyes, he didn't have an extra expression, if he could, he didn't want to listen, but he didn't have a choice. The land area, geographical location and special humanities of Yanyun country have brought endless wealth to Yanyun country, but also brought many drawbacks, and the small country that was sandwiched between the two great powers of Chiyang and Cangqiu was destined to be unable to develop its military, so that after the people of Yanyun country found that they had a smart business mind and took commerce as the foundation of the country, the people's hearts gradually scattered and could no longer gather.

The abundant wealth has brought many pretenders to the Yanyun Kingdom, and for many years, the Yanyun Kingdom has been seeking a balance between the Chiyang Kingdom and the Cangqiu Kingdom, and has survived secretly, but it is surrounded by powerful countries, and it is difficult for the rich Yanyun Kingdom to guarantee that it will not be leveled by the invaders in the future.

For a long time, there was no war because the great powers were also maintaining a delicate balance, and for various reasons, no one was the first to break it. But starting from Duanmuran's father's generation, this balance gradually tilted and gradually became chaotic, and Duanmu Yan judged that a big war was likely to happen while he was alive.

Once there is a big war, the Yanyun Kingdom will be divided and plundered by the powerful countries as a wealth bank, and the Yanyun Kingdom will not be able to develop its military due to various conditions, and it can only be attached to a certain big country if it wants to keep peace, but whether it is the Chiyang Kingdom or the Cangqiu Kingdom, the end of relying on them is to be occupied, and the difference is to raise your hands first and surrender, or resist and then surrender.

Although Duanmu Yan didn't care about Yanyun Kingdom, he was the king of a country in the end, and he didn't want Yanyun Kingdom to be destroyed in his own hands, so he chose to support Fengming Kingdom.

This is equivalent to investing in a deal, and the trend is also very satisfactory to Duanmu Yan, Feng Ming Kingdom can grow from a wild country to a country that dares to fight Chiyang Country but has nothing to do with her, Duanmu Yan feels that the original risky decision is right.

It's just that the country that he single-handedly supported, now he has to be led by the nose by this country, which makes him a little unhappy.

In the incense burner, the smell of ambergris is refreshing.

Chenguang has a dry mouth, holds a small porcelain cup, and drinks water in small sips. Duanmu Yan looked at her, and suddenly remembered the half-black and half-white Persian cat raised by Ziyi Gongzi in the harem.

"Let me ask you again, do you really want to marry Emperor Long Xi?" Duanmu asked, "Or is this just your delaying tactic?" ”

Chenguang pursed his lips and said unhappily, "Why do you ask me that?" I agreed to him because I liked Xiao Run. ”

"Really?" Duanmu Yan said lightly, his expression was quite disapproving, and after a pause, he asked, "How is your body?" ”

"Good." Chenguang replied with a smile.

"Isn't it okay?"

"It's all good."

"Chang Xi begged me to check your pulse."

"No need." Chenguang refused, laughing and said, "You just tell him that I'm fine and that I'm getting better." ”

"He's not a fool, he won't believe that, and when he begs me, he looks solemn, and I know that your body has deteriorated again."

Chenguang smiled, smiling lightly and disapprovingly.

"When are you leaving, shall we go together?" She said with a smile.

"The day after tomorrow."

"Then I'll live in the Cloud Hall tonight." Chenguang said with a grin, stood up with the big cat in his arms, and walked out.

"You go to the inn!" Duanmu Yan said angrily.

"Don't be so stingy, I'll go play with Ziyi Gongzi!" Chenguang said with a grin and went out.

Duanmu Yan sighed helplessly.

Not long after Chenguang left, the eunuch came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, Prince Changxi asks to see you."

Duanmu was slightly stunned, paused for a moment, and said, "Let him in." ”

After a while, Chang Xi came in from outside, gave a brief salute, and then asked in a slightly hurried tone:

"How is our Highness's body?"

"She refused to be treated." Duanmu Yan looked at him and said that as soon as he came in, he hurriedly asked about Chenguang's physical condition, which made Duanmu Yan a little unhappy.

When Chang Xi heard this, she was a little disappointed, glanced at him, didn't say anything, and after a polite sentence, she wanted to leave.

"Changxi." After hesitating for a moment, Duanmu Yan called out to him.

Chang Xi raised her eyes and looked at him.

"Is it the right thing to live in the Phoenix Kingdom?" Duanmu asked.

"Yes." Chang Xi replied lightly.

"It's more desirable than in the Yanyun Kingdom?"

"Yes."

"Is Feng Mingguo more in line with your heart, or is it in line with your heart to follow her?"

Chang Xi smiled: "You know the answer, why ask?" ”

Indeed, Duanmu Yan knew the answer to this question, but he still asked.

He looked at Chang Xi, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and he said:

"There will be no result between you and her, there is no possibility at all, even if it is possible for Si Qian, who is with you to follow her in the future, you don't have this possibility, she and you are not the same kind of people, do you understand?"

"My wish is to be by His Highness's side, and my wish is not to have a result." Chang Xi said, "Me and her are impossible in the first place, and you don't need to remind me of this." ”

Duanmu Yan frowned, and asked him softly in a pitiful tone:

"Why bother?"

"You don't understand." Chang Xi said.

Duanmu Yan stared at him, without saying a word to refute that he understood, and after a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked away.

Chang Xi turned around and went out.

There was silence in the bright palace for a long time, and Duanmu Yan sighed softly.
