Chapter 83: Xinxin, wait for me to come back
Yuan Yuan replied to Emperor Yan with a sweet smile, and then concentrated on cooking, Yan Huai stopped saying a few ribs for her, hoping that the little girl would not mess with him.
After eating and drinking, he was willing to sit beside Yan Huai obediently, waiting for Emperor Yan to tell him the true intention of calling him to come to the Qinzheng Palace.
Emperor Yan didn't delay any longer, and told Yuan Yuan about the news of Yuan Zhentian's injury in Biansai, so anxious that Yuan Yuan stood up directly, and asked with an anxious face, "Your Majesty, how is my grandfather now?" Is it badly injured? He wrote me back and said everything was fine! Swindler! Grandpa is a big liar! ”
"Don't worry, let's listen to my uncle first, okay?" Seeing that the little girl was blaming herself and anxious, Emperor Yan had to interrupt her, planning to inform her of the results of his discussion with Shenzhi first.
"Xinxin, there has been an accident on the side of Biansai, and I have decided to recall Yuan Qing back to Yanjing, and let Shen Zhi take Yuan Qing's place and continue to conquer Beiting."
I was still happy that my grandfather could come back one second, but the next second I heard that Yan Shenzhi was going to fight in his grandfather's place?
"Yan Shenzhi, do you have to go? Is it okay not to go? I don't want you to get hurt. Yuan Yuan took Yan Huai's hand with a face full of resistance, hoping that he could respond to his words.
Yan Huai knew that the little girl was scared in her heart, she had always been like this, although she was bold, but her heart was very fragile, and she was two points more dependent on the people close to her than her peers, but he had to go to the expedition to Beiting, and the most important thing now was to appease her little emotions.
"Father, the son will return to the East Palace with his heart first, and he will come back to discuss with you the candidate for his entourage later." Yan Huai wanted to coax the little girl, but not in front of Emperor Yan.
Emperor Yan knew that he must have something to coax Yuanyuan, nodded his head and said, "Go ahead, talk to Xinxin, don't scare her." ”
Yan Huai got up, and then led Yuan Yuan out of the Qinzheng Palace, and Xiao Dezi and Chaifeng followed quietly behind the two.
Along the way, Yan Huai didn't take the initiative to explain the reason for the expedition to Yuan Yuan, and Yuan Yuan refused to speak, his little face was stinky, but his hand was honestly held by Yan Huai.
Back in the East Palace, Qingshuang just wanted to go up to greet Yuan Yuan, but was stopped by the quick chasing wind, Yan Huai led Yuan Yuan to skip them and go straight to the study.
"What's going on? Did His Royal Highness and His Highness lose their temper? Tsing Yi was the first to ask Chasing the wind.
Chasing Feng sat down on the stone chair in the courtyard, poured himself a cup of tea, and said with a rare serious face, "Grandpa Guo is injured and is about to return to Beijing, and His Royal Highness has already asked His Majesty for his life." ”
"What! Grandpa Guo is injured? Badly hurt? Qingshuang asked a little anxiously, Yuan Zhentian was a kind and benevolent elder, and he had never treated his subordinates harshly in the mansion, Qingshuang treated him like a family member, and now that he heard that he was injured, he was naturally worried.
"Auntie, don't worry, I don't know how Grandpa Guo's specific injuries are now, but it must not be life-threatening." Xiao Dezi also listened to it outside the Qinzheng Palace, the conversation between Emperor Yan and Yan Huai was more about the current battle situation in the border area, and it should not be a particularly serious injury to the grandfather of the country.
"What Xiao Dezi said is, aunt, don't worry, now that His Royal Highness is about to go on the expedition, His Royal Highness can't leave you here." Seeing that her face was not good, Tsing Yi hurriedly comforted Qingshuang and asked her to shift her attention to Yuan Yuan.
In the study, after Yuan Yuan broke free of Yan Huai's hand, he curled up on the soft couch, buried his head in his folded legs, and refused to communicate with him.
Yan Huai didn't force her, just sat at the desk and began to write, quickly put away the written letter, and then looked at the little girl who was still twisting.
"Xinxin, are you willing to listen to Lone's explanation?" Yan Huai said as he got up and sat down beside her.
Yuan Yuan reluctantly raised his head to look at him, then buried his head back in his original position, and said in a muffled voice, "You're going to war, what else is there to say." ”
"Then do you know why Lone went to war?" Yan Huai followed her words and continued, refusing to let the little girl continue to screw with herself.
"Isn't there just a bad guy trying to rob our home? But didn't we all run away with the bad guys? Why keep fighting? Are you going to rob their home? ”
In the past, I may not have known what the meaning of the war was, but now I know that the purpose of fighting is to regain the home that belongs to them and regain the territory that was robbed, but what she doesn't understand now is that she has obviously snatched the territory back, so why continue to fight?
"Xinxin, it is incumbent on us to regain the lost territory, and the conquest of Beiting is to deter them, if they are not scared and scattered, they will still take a chance to grab our territory and hurt our people."
"Just like when the general was young, was there always a mouse or a wild cat to steal his food? But over the years, the general has grown up and become much stronger, don't those cats and mice dare not come and steal food? ”
"Xinxin, these two are the same truth, the weak eat the strong, today we don't give Beiting a lesson that they will never forget, and in the coming day they will wait for the opportunity to beat us off guard, do you think we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory?"
Yan Huai rarely explained the reason so patiently with Yuan Yuan, he believed that his little girl was not the kind of person who was unreasonable, on the contrary, she was very smart, she was kind and simple, she didn't like to fight, that was because she was afraid of separating from herself, and she was also afraid of being hurt, so he didn't blame her, but felt very distressed.
Yuan Yuan didn't respond to Yan Huai's words for a long time, but Yan Huai knew that she understood, but she couldn't convince herself for a while.
"Yan Shenzhi..."
"Alone."
"You don't want to get hurt, okay..."
The little girl's nasal words made Yan Huai's heart soften, and she reached out to hug the person into her arms, and the placket on her chest soon became wet, and the little girl cried.
"Lone promises you that you will not let yourself be hurt." Yan Huai endured the sourness in her heart, and reached out to gently pat the muffled crying wish to soothe her uneasy emotions.
"Yan Shenzhi... If you go, you'll have to beat all the big bad guys away! So that they will never dare to come and grab our territory again! I don't want to see you go to war again... I hate wars... I don't want you to die..."
In the end, Yuan Yuan couldn't hold back his collapse and threw himself into Yan Huai's arms and cried.
"Good heart, Gu has already agreed with his father, when Grandpa Yuan returns to Beijing, you will go back to the Gongfu Mansion first, and when Gu comes back, I will take you back to the East Palace, okay?" Yan Huai discussed in her ear gently, and he had no worries in his heart when he sent his original wish back to the Gongfu.
"Yan Shenzhi, you have to come back early, don't talk like grandpa, otherwise I won't wait for you." Yuan Yuan grabbed him by the collar with red eyes and asked him to assure him.
