Chapter 518 If Qin Xi wants to go to the grassland, he must return to Xianyang, ask his father in person, and after getting his father's permission, he can only go to the grassland after obtaining military power.

Qin Xi took a few guards and hurried back to Xianyang all the way, and regardless of how late it was, he went directly to the palace to ask for a meeting.

Dad was eating dinner in the imperial study, and there was a book on the table, when he suddenly heard the prince ask to see him, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Let him come in, go and prepare a pair of chopsticks." Daddy said.

"No." After a while, Qin Xi came in.

"Stinky boy, come and eat together." Daddy waved with chopsticks. Qin Xi sat down, and his father said, "Why didn't you supervise the work in Luoyang, and suddenly ran back?" Qin Xi said while eating: "Over there in Luoyang, I have handed it over to Mo Ling and Prime Minister for the time being, the plan has been clearly explained, and there will be no problem if I am not there." ”

"You came back because of the Huns?" Daddy asked. Qin Xi nodded, and when he swallowed the food in his mouth, he said, "I'm going to the grassland to lead the troops, and it will be extremely unfavorable for us to drag on the affairs of the grassland for two or three years." Dad smiled: "Meng Tian and Wang Ben have no way, can you go and have a way?" Qin Xi looked at his father and said: "If it is in spring and summer, I really can't help it, but now that the cold winter is coming, the Huns will either go south to fight our army and recapture the grassland in the south for the winter, or they can only go west for the winter." ”

"And I happen to know where to spend the winter in the west, which is the most important thing."

"Are you going to lead your troops there to find a decisive battle with the Hun army?" Daddy asked. Qin Xi nodded and said, "I only know a general direction over there, so I plan to go over in person." ”

"How's the progress going on in Luoyang?" Daddy suddenly asked. Qin Xi was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "The city's main drainage system is nearing completion, and the next step is to divide the area and then build the foundation." ”

"Are there enough sinners, are there enough materials and money?" Daddy asked.

"In terms of manpower, it's still a little short, but there will only be more manpower needed in the future. As for the material, there is still a certain gap at present, but the problem is not big, and the output can still be increased in the future, but it is necessary to send someone to keep an eye on the quality. Qin Xi said while eating.

"You slow down, the food is still there, it's like you've been hungry for dozens of days, it's not like words." Seeing Qin Xi gobbling up, Dad beckoned to the eunuch, and the eunuch was exchanged for new dishes.

Qin Xi pinched the vegetables and ate them, and said, "My amount of food is actually not large, but this dish is a bit large." Dad shook his head and smiled, and added vegetables to Qin Xi with his own hands.

Qin Xi asked while eating: "Dad, I will go to the grassland, you always agree to it, a matter of one word." Dad put down his chopsticks and said, "Yes." ”

"That'll do, I'll leave tomorrow." Qin Xi said.

"Wait." Daddy said, "I can let you go, but you stinky boy must promise one thing for your father." ”

"You say, as long as my son can do it." Qin Xi said. Dad brought a note from the side and said, "Mo Ling presented a note, saying that your kid can form a powerful navy that goes to the sea to catch Kun, and my father will see this navy within ten years." ”

"Yes, but the financial and material resources required for this must be there, otherwise it will be difficult to do." Qin Xi said.

"This depends on my Daqin's taxes in the next few years, of course, if there is a problem in the next few years, my father can also give you grace." Daddy laughed.

"Then let's be undecided." Qin Xi said and started to move his chopsticks again. Of course, the navy is to be established, but well, dad doesn't know what the navy is like, and when the time comes, build a few steam ironclad ships first, and you can bluff daddy.

Qin Xi came out of the Xianyang Palace very late and returned to his prince's mansion. Dad pulled Qin Xi and asked about a lot of things about the so-called navy, but Qin Xi couldn't say too much, and it was easy to have problems if he said too much, so he could only use a hammer in the west and a stick in the east, and he returned to the prince's mansion very late.

The old housekeeper was left in the prince's mansion by Qin Xi, after all, the old housekeeper stayed at home to take care of the house, and Qin Xi was relieved.

The old housekeeper had already fallen asleep, and after learning that Qin Xi had returned, he hurriedly got up.

"Your Highness is back? Just came back? Have you eaten? The butler asked with concern.

"I ate, and as soon as I came back, I went to the palace, and I was full in the palace." Qin Xi pushed the old housekeeper to the room and said, "It's so late, you can go to bed first, don't worry about me." ”

"Your Highness, the crown princess and them, why didn't they come back?" The housekeeper returned to the room and turned around and took Qin Xi's hand and asked.

Qin Xi smiled: "They will come back in a few days, and the little girl also wants to take care of her grandfather, and she is clamoring to come back." The butler nodded with a smile and said, "Your Highness, is there anything important to come back overnight today?" Is it dealt with? Qin Xi nodded and said, "It's all dealt with, you can rest assured when you are old." ”

"Okay, good, then good, then don't spare Your Highness, and Your Highness will rest early." The old butler said.

Qin Xi watched the old housekeeper lie down before closing the door and leaving. The old housekeeper has been with Qin Xi for even longer than the time that his father has been with Qin Xi.

In the past, Qin Xi was disobedient, and after being beaten by his father, the housekeeper would come to secretly guard Qin Xi and give Qin Xi medicine.

Qin Xi has long regarded the old housekeeper as a family member, not a simple housekeeper. Qin Xi came to the arsenal at home, and after opening the arsenal, he took out his armor.

Qin Xi never leaves his sword in his hand, but this armor can't be worn all the time, so the armor has been sealed here.

Qin Xi is going to the grassland this time, not only to bring a sword and armor, but also to bring a dragon head gun. This is the second time that the dragon head spear has gone out with Qin Xi, and the first time is the battle to exterminate the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.

After packing up his things, Qin Xi was about to rest, but before he could take off his clothes, there was a knock on the door.

As soon as Qin Xi hit the guard, it turned out to be a killing sword. But also, only a master like Killing Sword comes to him, so as not to alarm the guards in the prince's mansion.

Killing Sword directly took out an edict and said: "This is Your Majesty's appointment edict, let your subordinates and His Royal Highness go to the grassland together tomorrow." ”

"You're going with me too?" Qin Xi asked. Killing Sword nodded and said: "Last time I went to the grassland, I couldn't solve the first master of the grassland, Sha, this time I went to see if that old thing dared to come out." ”

"That guy killed so many of my brothers! I also hope that he will come out, and you will leave me a breath when the time comes! I'm going to kill him with my own hands. Qin Xi said.

"Yes." Killing Sword said decisively. Qin Xi opened the edict of appointment and found that his identity as an overseer when he went north this time was actually the same as his position last time.
