"Let her go?" Fang Gu asked puzzledly, "Jia Qianqian already knows the identity of the young master as a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, if she is released, she will leak it out, and provoke the Great Yan Kingdom to send troops to attack, then wouldn't our Xuancheng be in danger?" ”

Elder Mu smiled, "Do you think that the Xuancheng City Lord is a descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty, and the Emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom will not know about this?" He just didn't dare to send troops to attack easily. Xuancheng has a unique geographical location, the people in the base camp are elite soldiers, do not belong to any of the surrounding countries, we provide a place for merchants of the three countries to trade, so that the various countries can communicate with each other, if the Great Yan Kingdom wants to come to capture, Khotan and Qi will definitely come to help. Even if Dayan Kingdom spends money to capture Xuancheng, he still has to send a large number of troops to garrison here, and Xuancheng has become an ordinary city of Dayan Kingdom, and his own merchants have no place to trade with the outside world. ”

"Then they just sit back and watch us accumulate wealth, leaving this henchman behind?"

Elder Mu stroked his beard and shook his head, "What I said will not attack, it is temporary, everyone is waiting for an opportunity, we are waiting for an opportunity to start an incident, Dayan Kingdom, is also waiting for an opportunity to destroy Xuancheng in one fell swoop, and no one will act rashly if they are not sure." ”

Fang Gu nodded as if she didn't understand, as a member of the base camp, she cared about the future of Xuancheng, but what she was more worried about was that Nie Wuzheng would really marry Jia Qianqian, as long as she didn't marry him, then let her go.

In the palace of Dayan Kingdom, the same conversation is going on.

In the imperial study, Emperor Yong'an, the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom in his fifties and wearing a bright yellow soft robe, looked at the music in his hand, and said to Long Xiao and Long Jie, the masked princes who were kneeling on the ground: "Since the jade chapter has been taken away by Nie Wuzheng, and Nie Wuzheng is going to Xuancheng, then the matter is a little complicated. In fact, you may not know that the young master of Xuancheng is named Nie Wuzheng, that is to say, their young master personally came out to look for the jade chapter. ”

Even in the palace, the eldest prince Long Xiao still wears a mask, this eldest prince who was disfigured because of an accident, and then became indifferent and not well-known to the outside world, is the guilt and pain in the heart of Emperor Yong'an. Long Xiao raised his head, "Father, my son heard that Xuancheng was actually occupied by the descendants of the royal family of the previous dynasty, so is Nie Wuzheng a descendant of the royal family?" ”

Emperor Yong'an nodded, "I have always known this. ”

"Then why don't you send troops to eradicate them?"

"Long Xiao, you are still too young, it is too simple to think about things, to be an emperor, you have to consider many aspects, back then, your grandfather took what could be appeased by the rebels in various places, and if he couldn't appease, he vigorously eliminated them, so in exchange for the current stable situation of Dayan Kingdom. If Xuancheng is easily attacked, it is inevitable that the surrounding neighbors will not take the opportunity to attack us, especially the Qi State and the Li State in the north, which have been eyeing us. And once the war starts, the little wealth that the Great Yan Kingdom has just accumulated may be consumed. Before the Great Yan Kingdom is not truly powerful, it is natural that it cannot act rashly. Another thing to remember is that those who win the hearts of the people win the world, and the common people want to live a stable life, as long as we govern the country well, the country and the people are safe, even if the people in Xuancheng want to think about it, no one is willing to respond to support.

The reason why the Great Yue Kingdom perished at the beginning was precisely because the government was corrupt and the people were not able to make a living, so that the Quartet rose up to resist, and Taizu was able to adapt to the time of heaven, overthrow the Great Yue Dynasty, and establish the Great Yan Kingdom. Without the support of the people, how can Xuancheng afford the big waves? Therefore, as long as the Great Yan Kingdom is well governed, what is there to fear from Xuancheng?"

Long Jie looked at Emperor Yong'an with admiration, "Father, the sons and daughters understand that the royal family of the Dayue Dynasty is not terrible, but what I am afraid of is losing the hearts of the people." ”

Emperor Yong'an approvingly: "It's good that Jie'er understands." ”

"The matter of the jade seal, should we just give it up?" Long Xiao asked.

"Of course not, since the jade chapter is related to the national fortune of the previous dynasty, what is the mystery in this, naturally you have to figure it out, Xuancheng is very strictly guarded, Long Xiao, it is inconvenient for you to disguise, let Long Jie sneak in and inquire, and leave this matter to him for the time being."

Long Jie immediately said happily: "Erchen must do his best to inquire clearly. "Being able to go to Xuancheng means that you can meet Jia Qianqian, the different freak girl who haunts him, he will definitely not lose it easily.

In the main hall of Xuancheng, Nie Wujian sat above, and there were two rows of people at the bottom, on one side were the eight elders, and on the other side were the main cadres who managed various things in Xuancheng, most of whom were middle-aged people. Xuancheng was not in any situation at the moment, and after all the subordinates in charge made routine reports, they retreated, but the eight elders stayed. The leading Elder Mu came out and said, "Young Master, now that the jade chapter has been recovered, it is time to take advantage of the victory to pursue and find the scepter, so that the Dayue royal family can be blessed by the gods, so that it will be convenient for future troubles." The young master must not forget the blood feud of the ancestors! ”

Regarding the overthrow of the Dayan Kingdom and the rebuilding of the Dayue Dynasty, Nie Wuzheng lacked interest in the same situation as his father, but he did not have his father's decisive courage, and he could recklessly throw away everything to do what he wanted, and in the position of the young master, he would inevitably be swayed by these subordinates who were bent on recovering the country.

"Okay, got it, I'll go see my father." As a descendant of the Dayue royal family, he is helpless and can't help himself.

Came to the place where Xuancheng's master Nie Xun practiced, this is a small temple near the cliff in the north of Xuancheng, this place was originally secluded and peaceful, because it was classified as a forbidden place, and no one approached. Nie Wuzheng walked into this small temple alone with a complicated mood.

Nie Xun because of his weak body, unable to learn advanced martial arts, so he has always had two personal guards to follow him, after he left home, the two guards because they did not want to leave the master, also followed him into this small temple. There was originally a host and two little monks in the small temple, and after this place was classified as a forbidden place, the three monks no longer worried about the incense, and after cooking and cleaning every day, they followed Nie Xun to read and study the scriptures. On the other hand, the two guards are idle every day, and the greatest pleasure is to block the elders who want to disturb their masters.

Nie Wuzheng came in, and the two guards naturally recognized him, but after hesitating, they still blocked him, "Young master, the master said it, and I don't see anyone." ”

"Is this anyone, including me?" Nie Wuzheng actually resented his father in his heart, he left it alone, all the responsibilities and burdens fell on him, and he had no brothers and sisters to help him, and he was old and old in exchange for losing his happy and happy teenage life. Because of this, he never took the initiative to see his father except on certain days.

"Young master, I'm sorry! Today is not a specific day designated by the owner, so you cannot be allowed to go in. The two guards blocked the doorway, not accommodating in the slightest because of his special status.

"What if I insist on going in?" Nie Wuzheng looked at the two guards with a smile.

The two of them had a tacit understanding and stood in front of him, "Where the duty lies, unless the young master kills us!" ”

Nie Wuzheng finally understood why those elders couldn't see their father, and suddenly smiled in a good mood: "Okay, it's a blessing for my father to have you two to protect him." After saying that, he left without looking back.

Back in the inner city, Nie Wuzheng began to worry again, and he couldn't even see his father's face, so how could he ask about the jade seal and the scepter? I didn't want to deal with other trivial matters, and I came to *.

After two days of rest, Jia Qianqian's body has fully recovered, except for the scars on his wrists. As for why Lu Dong'er wanted to hurt her, Nie Wuzheng didn't tell the truth, but just lied that Lu Dong'er loved to bully outsiders and tortured her on a whim, so he persuaded Jia Qianqian that if she wanted to play on the street in the future, it would be best to have him by her side. Jia Qianqian couldn't figure out why Lu Dong'er, who she didn't know, tortured her, and without any other reason, she believed Nie Wuzheng's lie.

While he was playing with those alien gadgets in the house, Nie Wuzheng came in. Seeing him coming, Xiao Ye withdrew from the room with interest, and Jia Qianqian held up a woodcarved ghost-faced human: "Why do they carve such a terrifying little wooden figure?" Aren't you afraid that children will be scared when they see it? ”

Nie Wuzheng said with a smile: "This is the mask worn by the wizards of Khotan, no matter how big or small the Khotanese people are, there are wizards dancing gods, and the children of Khotan have long been accustomed to it, and the adults even use this kind of little wooden figure to play with their children, it is in the hope that the wizard little wooden man can help the child drive away evil and grow up healthy." ”

Jia Qianqian sighed: "Sure enough, it is a hundred miles of different customs, and this alien is even different." ”

The two of them were chatting while enjoying themselves, and they were having fun when they suddenly heard a sarcastic voice coming from the door, "The young master is really interested, I guess the tasks assigned by the elders have been completed." ”

By the door, Fang Gu was wearing a water-green long skirt, combing the popular beauty bun, and applying light makeup, which was even more beautiful.

Nie Wuzheng sank his face, "It's not your turn to supervise this matter." ”

Fang Gu originally didn't dare to talk to the young master in this tone, but when she was dressed up beautifully and found an excuse to come to see Nie Wuzheng, she saw the two getting along intimately, and she was jealous for a while, and she forgot her identity.

At this time, seeing Nie Wuzheng's face change, he immediately came to his senses, and hurriedly bowed down and said, "I'm sorry!" The subordinates are anxious about the task, and they have forgotten for a while, and I hope the young master will forgive me! The subordinate came here because he met Madame just now, and Madame asked you to see her, and she had something to look for you. ”

Jia Qianqian was very happy to see Aunt Fang, although Aunt Fang didn't want to see her, but she also met in Dayan Country, and they drove acquaintances for more than ten days together. Immediately said with a smile: "Aunt Fang, come in and sit, come and take a look at these gadgets, it's very interesting." ”

Nie Wuzheng saw his mother looking for him, he knew that Fang Gu didn't dare to be unfavorable to Qianqian here, so he left with confidence.

Fang Gu sat down, disdainful of those gadgets, and just said coldly, "Miss Jia, do you want to leave Xuancheng?" If you really want to go, I can help you. ”
