At this moment, Mo Niang on the side greeted her, supported Xia Ji, and called softly with worry on her face: "Queen Mother", Xia Ji patted Mo Niang's hand, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly to comfort Mo Niang so that she didn't have to worry, when it came to this, there was no other way, Mo Niang helped Xia Ji to sit on the seat.

Xia Ji said lightly, "Today is the case, then the mourning family will use this jade pendant to exchange for the emperor's choice", "What choice?" Emperor Yan responded that as long as Xia Ji's choice did not affect state affairs, Emperor Yan planned that no matter what kind of request Xia Ji made at this time, he would agree to her to make up for the guilt of his mother.

"Will the emperor choose what the mourning family wants?" Xia Ji raised her head, looked at Emperor Flame with loving eyes, and asked rhetorically, hoping that he could consider it for the sake of the relationship between mother and son.

Emperor Yan was so generalized by Xia Ji, no matter how he chosen, it seems that one party will be injured, but the major affairs of the country must not be mistaken by personal feelings. Emperor Yan exhaled lightly and said bluntly: "As long as there is no harm to state affairs, I will satisfy the queen mother." Xia Ji was suddenly disappointed, it seems that there must be a gap in the mother-son relationship today.

"Okay, the mourning family let the emperor choose one of the options between the expedition and the mourning family", Xia Ji stood up and said in a cold tone. "Queen Mother" and "Queen Mother", Emperor Yan and Mo Niang were summoned at the same time, obviously shocked by Xia Ji's words.

"Mother, what do you mean by that?" "Choose a mourner or go on a campaign?" "Queen Mother, what do you want? "Choose a mourner or go on a campaign", "How about a campaign?" What about after choosing a mother? The Flame Emperor and Xia Ji walked towards each other at the same time as they spoke, their eyes facing each other, and they did not back down from each other.

"If you choose to go on the expedition, the mourning family will use this jade pendant in exchange for the emperor's promise to let Xi'er return to the capital, accompany the mourning family to the end, choose the mourning family, the emperor will give up the expedition, and the mourning family still has only one son by the emperor's side."

"Does the queen mother have to be so forced?" "Yes, the mourning family can't watch the emperor do foolish things. "Emperor Yan was completely stumped by Xia Xi, this is a choice, it is simply coercion.

"Your Majesty, how to choose?" Seeing that the Flame Emperor did not speak, Xia Ji took a step forward again, looked directly at the Flame Emperor, did not leave him a chance to breathe, and continued to ask.

The Flame Emperor was forced to be a little short of breath by Xia Ji, and everyone present at this time looked at the Flame Emperor in unison, all waiting for his golden words, and it was the momentum that the old prince Gu looked at him did not lose Xia Ji at all, and while giving him support, it was also an invisible pressure, and the Flame Emperor couldn't help but clench his fists.

Emperor Yan kept telling himself in his heart, I am the emperor, I am the emperor, I am the emperor, when the Emperor Yan remembered that he was still the prince, the emperor patted his shoulder in the imperial study and said to himself: "Huo'er, in the future, this country will be yours, although you enjoy no honor, but also the height is unbearable, you must remember, for the monarch, for the country and the people, you must not be indecisive, children are long, misleading the country and the people."

Emperor Yan recalled what the emperor said back then, slowed down the rhythm of breathing, gradually relaxed his clenched fists, raised his head to meet Xia Ji's eyes, and said unhurriedly, neither humble nor arrogant: "Even if the queen mother is bound to be like this, the ministers there can only choose one of the two, no matter who is around the queen mother in the future, how the queen mother will treat me, the queen mother is my mother, and I will raise her with the world, but today I am only a king, and I am the father of the world......."

"Your Majesty, what choice do you make?" Xia Ji eagerly interrupted the words of the Flame Emperor, she was afraid to hear the promise, and finally said it from the mouth of the Flame Emperor, at this time she couldn't retreat, she hoped that the Flame Emperor could think again, it seemed to be forced, but it was also prevented and asked again.

"I, elect to go to the expedition", such a short four words, once they were spoken, there was no turning back, Xia Ji finally failed to make Emperor Yan change his mind, but pushed the matter to this irreparable place.

"Okay, since the emperor has made a choice, then the emperor also please fulfill his promise", that is, this is the case, Xia Ji can only give up, as a mother, she has done what she should do, and she can't worry about what will happen in the future.

Xia Ji put the jade pendant in her hand back into the brocade box, and Mo Niang handed it to the Flame Emperor, who walked to the Flame Emperor with the brocade box in her hand and held it in front of the Flame Emperor.

"Your Majesty", Emperor Yan raised his hand to take the jade pendant in the brocade box, and explained to Gonggong Yan that "pass on my will, order to return to the capital in the Wang's mansion, give him a residence in the palace of the prince of Zong, and freely enter and exit the harem to accompany the queen mother's side", Emperor Yan's eyes have never left Xia Ji.

"Queen Mother, the sons and daughters will retire first, and come again tomorrow to ask the Queen Mother for peace", "Queen Mother, the ministers will retire", Emperor Yan and everyone asked Xia Ji to retire, Xia Ji turned his back and never looked at Emperor Yan.

Seeing Xia Ji like this, Emperor Yan was very helpless, clenched Wang Pei, and turned around to leave the side hall.

After everyone retreated, Mo Niang called softly, "Niangniang, do you really want to be like this?" "There is no other way to mourn the family", Xia Ji raised her head, took a deep breath, and was surrounded by loneliness. Mo Niang on the side was very distressed when she saw Xia Ji like this, Niangniang, why are you so troubled.
