Looking at her, he couldn't say a word, he finally gradually understood the truth of people, maybe anything is predestined, the front edge is a tangential thing, Duoduo's life experience seems bizarre, but if you think about it carefully, it is just an occasional thought of Master Kuhe decades ago, but this one thought fell on the future generations, in front of him, and on the grassland in front of him.

There is no need to think about why Haitang was able to convince the people of the northern tribe of her identity as a princess, and there is no need to think about how she did all this two years ago, since Master Kuhe threw out this variable before his death, of course he had already prepared for it - Kuhe had concealed from his brother and left a side of the blood of the Kharna royal court, how could he not leave some tokens or something.

The key is......

"...... your parents?" Fan Xian asked softly as he looked at Begonia's rare face.

Haitang hugged his knees and didn't move, but he felt the man's affection in his heart, he didn't ask about the things on the grassland, he didn't force himself, but he thought of the things he was most concerned about for the first time.

"I passed away when I was very young. The girl's face under the hat looked a little lonely.

Fan Xian didn't continue to ask this question, as for Begonia's parents, how the last pair of Khalna nobles left this world, whether it was Kuhe's secret black hand, it doesn't matter anymore, presumably Begonia is not willing to associate her master with that kind of role, but she must have some guesses in her heart.

"Master said these words to me on his deathbed, and let me choose what I should do. Begonia looked at the water ducks on the lake. The brows gradually frowned, and for some reason, the water ducks no longer played in the twilight, but hid a little timidly in the few water and grass beside the lake.

"Your choice is to follow his advice, return to the tribe, and then come to the steppe. Fan Xian lowered his head and thought, Songzhi is the surname of the king of Kharna, but this tribe was slaughtered by the commander of Zhan Qingfeng decades ago, so no one in the world thought of the relationship between the name Songzhi Xianling and the Hu people. A trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Haitang and said, "If you want to avenge your mother's family, you should also take revenge on Northern Qi, why bother targeting us Daqing?"

"Revenge? I rarely think about these decades ago. Haitang swiped the hair sticking out from the brim of his hat, glanced at Fan Xian, and said softly: "Just like you, we all know very well that hatred is such a thing." Often it is not washed clean. I'm just going to see how people who share my roots are living...... Anzhi, the Hu people are actually human beings, they also have the right to survive, this journey to the south, I don't know how many people died along the way, women and children in the tribe, shouldn't they live?"

"As for Daqi...... she lowered her head and laughed to herself, "Although the master has pointed out my background. But he gave me the heavenly one, and I am still the holy daughter of Daqi, if I really want to harm Daqi. Why should I run to the grasslands? ”

"I just want the people of these tribes to have a stable kingdom to live in. Haitang stared at Fan Xian's eyes, "So I want to help Subida unify the grassland, end the endless rolling within the grassland, and bring peace to this grassland." ”

"Peace?" Fan Xian's voice suddenly became cold. "The unification and peace of the grassland will inevitably lead to a full-scale war with Daqing in the future, and this is the future you expect?"

"I'm going to check and balance. Begonia lowered her head.

"Childish. Fan Xian said softly. The taste in his words was very similar to Li Hongcheng's ridicule when he reprimanded him in Dingzhou City, "The ambition of the king will never be something that you and I can balance." ”

"Then what do you say I should do? Could it be that watching the Qing army invade westward day by day, one day it will occupy the entire prairie and slaughter the people of the Hu tribe?" Haitang's brows furrowed, "Everyone has the right to live, do you still think that the lives of the Hu people and the Central Plains people are different?"

"There is naturally a difference between the noble and the low, and the lives of those close to me are naturally precious. Fan Xian did not back down, and said: "You only think about how the Hu people survive, have you ever thought about the people of my Qingguo Tun army on Xiliang Road? All the way west, I don't know how many houses have been burned and women and children have been killed. ”

"If this is the peace you want, then I'll ruin it all. Fan Xian's eyes narrowed slightly, staring at Haitang's face, "This is a thousand years of hatred, and our generation has no way to eliminate it...... If you stand in the position of the grassland royal court, you naturally hope that Qingguo will back down, but I stand in the position of Qingguo, and naturally hope that chaos will continue on the grassland. ”

Haitang stood up, looked up at Fan Xian slightly, and said, "You have been coming to the grassland for more than ten days, and you must have found out some things, so why don't you go back, and wait for me here?"

"I want to confirm your role. Fan Xian's face was a little pale, and he said: "Maybe you haven't thought about it yourself, but in fact, you have always regarded yourself as a citizen of Northern Qi, and you don't see yourself as the princess of Khalna at all." In fact, finding a living space for the grassland is actually ...... Or for the safety of the rear of the Northern Qi Dynasty, for the Northern Qi to hold back the footsteps of my emperor Lao Tzu. ”

Without waiting for Haitang to speak, Fan Xian raised his eyebrows and stopped her from speaking: "This is a subconscious behavior...... Speaking of which, I have to admire Master Kuhe. ”

He looked at Haitang with pity: "You are a saint, you are the most outstanding person in Tianyi since the bitter lotus, but your whole life, it seems that like me, is controlled by a high-ranking figure, any choice you make falls on his calculations, whether active or passive, the bitter lotus is using you to save his piece of the Great Qi Dynasty." ”

Kuhe has raised Begonia for nearly 20 years, and knows his female apprentice too well, and has already calculated clearly the decision of Begonia after knowing his life experience, knowing that no matter how Begonia chooses his own path, he will give Qingguo a very painful blow according to his arrangement.

Begonia's face is getting more and more lonely, in the past two years on the grassland to assist Shan Yu Subida, it has really consumed too much of her mind, and today by the lake by Fan Xian directly exposed the hidden thoughts under her leather robe. It was the slightest hint of her own avoidance that she found out......

"None of us are saints, we can't put the people of the world on an equal footing, if I am insidious, in fact, you are also selfish. Fan Xianwei sneered and said: "You use the lives of the people of Xihu to delay the pace of my Daqing Iron Cavalry, which is beneficial to Northern Qi, but have you ever thought about it...... Do these people of the steppe really need a strong royal court? Need to march east?"

"Bitter lotus is really powerful. Fan Xian closed his eyes and said slowly: "Although he was finally defeated by His Majesty, even if he died, he would bring so much trouble to my Daqing...... I have to say that the two brothers of the Zhan family are really the top people in the world. ”

Emperor Qing conquered the south and the north in his life, and it was rare to lose once, and the only time he was defeated. It was the disastrous defeat at the hands of the Great Wei Dynasty commander Zhan Qingfeng.

Unexpectedly, decades after Zhan Qingfeng's death, before Kuhe died, he planted a mine in the west of Qingguo.

"You know I'm not that kind of person. Haitang was not angry, stood quietly beside Fan Xian, and said: "It's just that among the many choices, I have chosen the best path for the grassland and for Daqi. ”

Fan Xian

Dao Haitang is not that kind of person. Just deliberately trying to provoke the other party, this coldly said: "What about me?"

Haitang glanced back at him and said, "You also said it before. We are not saints, it is impossible to consider the people of the whole world on an equal footing, and now it is you who are pointing the sword at Nanqing and the sword of the world, and the north and the east are all in the wind and rain...... Isn't it a little ridiculous if you expect me to consider Nanqing's interests?"

"Ridiculous?" Fan Xian stared at Begonia's eyes. As if he wanted to see the deepest heart of this girl's family, he said quietly: "A few years ago, in the restaurant in Shangjing, I was the secretary of the Qingguo Supervision Yuan. Isn't it ridiculous to make that deal with you?"

He laughed self-deprecatingly: "That's right, I'm a powerful person in Nanqing, but I want to raise my face and let you slap you." Obviously, my Daqing Iron Horse is about to go all over the world, but I want to make an agreement with a foreign saint...... Taiping?***Taiping, it's really ridiculous, I'm a very ridiculous thing to exist in this world. ”

Farming, drinking and chatting set this world for 20 years, recalling that the two of them traveled together in the capital, drunk in the building, and talked together under the melon stand in the garden, where no one knew, the two most outstanding young people in the Northern Qi and Nanqing set a naïve in the eyes of the world, but in their opinion, it was a particularly beautiful goal - no war in the world.

Such a naïve agreement, but because of the two people involved in this agreement, it seems close at hand, and it may become a reality at any time, because these two young people have great influence in their respective countries, if the situation remains unchanged, the old man gradually withdraws, and the future of the country is originally the domain of these two young people.

And now, a few years have passed, and the general trend of the world has already changed dramatically because of the outbreak of the Dadongshan incident. The world is changing, people are also changing, twenty years are far from coming, Fan Xian and Begonia seem to be able to farm and drink and chat anymore.

"I'm not reconciled. Fan Xian's face turned pale, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, "It's been five years since I left Lanzhou, and in the past five years, no one knows what I want to do, only you know...... You know how much I have taken risks for this agreement, how many losses I have suffered, and how much I have helped you Northern Qi. ”

He stared at Haitang's eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "You know all this, I don't hesitate to risk being accused of being a traitor in a thousand years, for what...... But you, running silently, came to the prairie, and began to stab me in the back. ”

"I'm not reconciled. Fan Xian's eyes gradually turned cold.

Haitang looked at Fan Xian's face, listened to his faint words, and for some reason, her heart hurt as if she had been stabbed, and her cheeks turned white in pain.

"I didn't think of it...... You'll be implicated. Haitang looked at him in a daze, feeling that the pain of the man in front of him seemed to fall on him, "I don't know where those knives came from, after knowing this, I went to Qingzhou City, but one was stolen." ”

Although Fan Xian had already guessed that a master as high as Jiupin, it was Haitang's act to steal into Qingzhou to help him destroy the evidence, but at this time, when he heard her admit it herself, her mood was slightly better, but her face was still very ugly, and she said, "You are still hiding from me...... The appearance of these knives is a very strange thing. ”

He grabbed the placket of Begonia's clothes. Gritting his teeth, he said, "Your connection with that little emperor of Northern Qi has never been broken...... This time, it's clear that he's yin against me, what else do you want to cover up for him?"

Haitang put his hand on his hand, looked at his eyes with pity and apology, and said: "I really don't know about this matter, and I don't know what went wrong in the capital, why Your Majesty would do such a stupid thing." ”

is indeed stupid, Northern Qi is in Qingguo, and the biggest help is Fan Xian. Although Fan Xian gradually severed his relationship with Northern Qi after Dadongshan, it would be very difficult for the Northern Qi Emperor to leave Fan Xian's help if he really wanted to have a future.

Fan Xian knew very well what the little emperor of Northern Qi thought.

He leaned close to Begonia's slightly reddened face and whispered into her ear: "It's not stupid at all, he wants to force me to rebel......? Two years ago in Kyoto, he wanted to kill me with the hand of the eldest princess and help the eldest to ascend to the throne. I haven't settled this account with him yet...... How can I be opposed?"

There was a hint of ridicule in his words, but Haitang's heart became cold, it was the first time she knew that in the change in Qingguo Kyoto two years ago, there was still a shadow of the Northern Qi Land, so thinking about it, the context of this matter was very clear. The little emperor of Northern Qi knew that Fan Xian was a very grudgeful person, of course he didn't dare to continue to put hope on him, plus Begonia has been on the grassland for the past two years. Unable to act as a bridge between the Emperor of Northern Qi and Fan Xian, the two sides gradually drifted apart, for the sake of the safety of Northern Qi. The Emperor of Northern Qi would inevitably choose to break the relationship between Fan Xian and Emperor Qing.

"Your Majesty can't help it. At this time, the posture between Begonia and Fan Xian was very warm, but the two of them were so shocking when they spoke, she said quietly: "In the past two years, you have helped Emperor Qing rectify the rule of officials and govern the people's livelihood. Take care of Neku, the big war is about to break out, how dare he believe you?"

"I don't care if he believes me or not. I don't even need your trust right now. Fan Xian shook his head, rubbing his cheeks against Begonia's slightly cool face, he took a deep breath, and said: "You bring a message to the little emperor of Northern Qi, just say that I, Fan Xian, will give me two big gifts because of him, and return him with a lesson that will never be forgotten." ”

Haitang's body trembled, and she looked at Fan Xian in surprise, not knowing what he would do. In this world, people who dare to teach the king of a country, except for the great grandmaster, are probably the only ones who dare to be so arrogant.

"Don't forget, you are from Qingguo, and you are the son of Emperor Qing. Haitang sighed and said: "Who would believe that you would consider the problem from the standpoint of Northern Qi or Dongyi? Your Majesty, it is normal for him not to believe you." ”

"I consider the problem from the standpoint of Qingguo, and I don't want the people of Qingguo to fall into endless war blood. ”

......

......

"Surely you won't tell me what you have laid out on the prairie. Haitang naturally passed his hands under Fan Xian's armpits and said, "But I will try my best to stop you." ”

"Except for my emperor Lao Tzu, no one in this world can stop me, and neither can you. Fan Xian took off her hat and touched her hair.

Fan Xian hugged Begonia tightly, but his eyes gradually calmed down, holding her in his arms, his eyes squinted slightly at the sky, a goshawk was flying in the twilight, and those water ducks in the lake were intimidated by this goshawk and hid in the aquatic plants.

In fact, Haitang also noticed the goshawk, and also knew why Fan Xian would hold himself like this, and sighed in his heart, knowing that he and His Majesty were really sorry for the young man who was holding him, and there were extremely complicated emotions in his mind, so he didn't want to break Fan Xian's careful thoughts.

"Stay with me for three days. Fan Xian said in her ear.

......

......

On the grassland, about ten miles away from this lake, hundreds of Xihu cavalry were guarding their king, the master of this grassland, Shan Subida looked indifferently into the distance, looking at the traces of the goshawk in the air.

Songzhi Xianling left, and Shan Yu was worried that she would not come back,

Led the cavalry to follow, for some reason, Shan Yu felt in his heart that someone was about to take the most important woman in his life.

This woman is not beautiful, not at all as beautiful as the beauties contributed by the tribe, but Shan Yu regards her more important than anyone else, because this woman has brought him the allegiance of more than 10,000 iron horsemen, brought some statecraft that he had never thought of, and brought a new atmosphere on the grassland. More importantly...... This woman brought peace to Shan Yu, a rare peace.

Whenever he was with this princess of Khalna, he felt that it was the happiest moment of his life, even if he was just sitting face to face and looking at each other.

He knew that she was the Holy Maiden of Northern Qi, the closed disciple of the Great Grandmaster Kuhe, and the walker of the mysterious Immortal Heaven in the world, but he knew it even more. Songzhi Xianling is a Hu person, his own kindred.

If you can sweep Liuhe in the future, attack the grassland, next to the horses, if you can have her sitting beside you, this world will be much more beautiful.

The goshawk gradually descended, and Shan Yu Subida's eyes narrowed, like an eagle falcon. Shining with a terrifying light.

The girl chased after a man, who was that man.

The goshawk couldn't report to Shan Yu, and the man was hatefully slighting your treasure, so Shan Yu could still keep his peace at the moment. In other words, Fan Xian's deliberate behavior did not play the role he imagined.

"Rush over and kill him. Da Danghu looked at Shan Yu's cloudy face and said loudly: "Kill him!"

Subida didn't answer, and when Songzhi Xianling left. He had said that if she was going to come back, then she would definitely come back, and he respected this woman with a strange background. While he didn't mind using his sword to assert his strength, he wasn't willing to use it to gain a woman's heart.

"Follow them and don't bother. Shan Yu Subida closed his eyes and spoke softly, but there was a chill in his words that made his heart palpitate.

Alone beside him, the royal court master is like a cloud. If these hundreds of horsemen are about to pass at this time, Fan Xian has great ability, in this vast grassland. I'm afraid that I can't escape death. But he was very curious, who was the person who could make Songzhi Xianling so moved, could it be the little white face of Nanqing that was rumored a few years ago?

The hand of the grassland master holding the reins became tighter and tighter, but his expression was still calm, he was destined to become the master of the world, of course, he would not be messed up because of a powerful minister in Nanqing, but he would not let that young man come to the grassland, and he would be able to go back alive.

The goshawk sent a message, and the Xihu cavalry near the royal court began to mobilize, and as long as the Songzhi Immortal Order was separated from the young man, they would start attacking.

But that one is three days.

......

......

In three days, Fan Xian and Haitang walked on the grassland, bought two good horses in a certain tribe, galloped a lot, and went to Haizi somewhere to catch two nets of small whitebait to roast and eat, and the last night, but stopped in a larger tribe, around the fire, eating beef and mutton with those Hu people, drinking roasted knife wine.

Begonia knows what these three days mean, and after three days, maybe the two will tear apart from the current complicated relationship and become enemies who don't share each other's sky, so these three days need to be cherished.

Fan Xian also knows what these three days mean, Begonia's identity as the princess did not resound in the grassland, but she can take herself to act freely on the grassland, she wants to use this vivid fact to tell herself that the Hu people and the Central Plains people can live in peace, and the Hu people are not born barbaric and easy to kill.

Because of the apology, Haitang accompanied Fan Xian for three days, and didn't ask anything else, but she didn't think of Fan Xian's true purpose at all.

The firelight reflected the faces of the two, red and red, like two children who were playful in winter. Haitang handed two things to Fan Xian and said, "Give them to your child." ”

Fan Xian took it and found that it was a string of ruby beads, as well as a small saber that Huren children like to play with, which was very cute.

"Beads for Xiaohua'er, knife for Liangzi?" he raised his eyebrows and said, "Xiaohua'er probably likes it, Liangzi is still young, I'm afraid I won't like it...... But...... Thank you, for your heart. ”

"Master said before that it is difficult for Mrs. Fan's body to give birth to children, and now that Fan Liang is born, it can be regarded as a wish of hers. Haitang smiled faintly and said, "I guess you have spent a lot of effort." ”

Three months ago, Lin Wan'er, who worked hard to conceive in October, finally gave birth to a Lin'er, and before the name was given in the palace, Fan Xian hurriedly took a Fan Liang and joined the family tree. This incident made Emperor Qing angry, but fortunately, Fan Xian still left the right to take words for Emperor Laozi, so he could be regarded as bluffing this matter.

Listening to Haitang's words, Fan Xian smiled bitterly, in the past two years, in addition to helping His Majesty deal with state affairs, most of the rest of his energy has been focused on treating Wan'er, in order to have a child, Wan'er really paid a lot, and he also suffered a lot in order to develop drugs, but fortunately, the number of roads set by Teacher Fei Jie in advance was right, and he succeeded in making Wan'er pregnant.

"Why is it named Fan Liang?" Haitang asked curiously, she knew that she and this young man would not be able to see each other again after tonight, so she kept asking all the time, wondering how the other party had lived in the past two years, and what the people around him were like.

"An idle wife is a good mother. Fan Xian smiled and said, "It's interesting, isn't it?"

The tribesmen gradually fell asleep, and only Fan Xian and Haitang were left by the fire, both of them seemed to feel something, and they did not feel the slightest sleep, quietly waiting for the dawn to come.

"It's going to be dawn soon. Haitang leaned on Fan Xian's shoulder, and said quietly, this woman finally revealed the feelings that a girl's family should have at the moment of parting.

Fan Xian was silent for a moment, and then suddenly said: "After dawn, as soon as you leave, that amorous Shan Yu will break my body into thousands of pieces." ”

After three days, with the cultivation of the two of them, it was naturally clear that not far behind them, the master of the grassland was forcibly suppressing his anger, waiting to give Fan Xian the most fatal blow.

Haitang closed his eyes and said lazily: "Don't worry about these things, I'll take care of it." ”

"I'm a man, and I'm not used to letting women handle things. Fan Xian laughed, the firelight reflected his smile, looking extremely kind and confident, "You are very strong, and that Shan Yu is also very strong, but I will prove that I am stronger than you." ”

Begonia sat up straight and looked at him quietly, not knowing what he wanted to say.

Fan Xian looked at her calmly and said: "I have never liked the story of a couple who are separated by the ethnic groups in the novel, Duoduo, you have been planning on the grassland for two years, and I have been preparing for four months, I will completely defeat you and cut off all the thoughts left by the bitter lotus." I like the happiness of the grassland, but for the sake of the happiness of the people of Qingguo, for my happiness, for the sake of Shan Yu's restlessness, I must ruin all this. ”

"If I keep you for three days, I will keep you for the rest of your life. ”

The young man from Qingguo stood up, looked at the dark grassland before dawn, and said softly.

......
