Chapter 209
It had to be said that Prince Qing's estimation was not wrong at all.

When he came under the capital with his 20 army, what he faced was the 20 army that was sharpening their knives.

Similarly, on the same day that his army arrived under the capital, he also received a signal from Gu Xiao and Dongfanghou asking for peace talks.

After Prince Qing personally walked around the capital, he found that the capital has now become an iron barrel, and there is no possibility of capturing the capital in a short period of time, so he simply agreed with Gu Xiao and others. The incoming peace signal.Since there is no possibility of winning in a short period of time, it might be an acceptable choice to sit down and negotiate.

Three days later, a huge open space was cleared outside the east gate of the capital.

A huge iron umbrella was erected on the open space. Under the iron umbrella, the two factions representing the Dongfang clan, the current royal family, were negotiating with each other to determine the future of the world.

"Brother Huang, you and I are evenly matched now, what do you think we should do now?" Upon meeting, Dongfanghou and Prince Qing, the brothers who had not seen each other for many years, shivered a few words, and Dongfanghou said straight to the point.

Prince Qing said hoarsely, "The dragon chair belongs to me!"

"It's impossible!" Dongfang Hou flatly refused.

For Dongfanghou, that dragon chair was also something he had longed for.Now, Prince Qing wants to leave without saying a word, which is absolutely unacceptable to him.

Prince Qing had known for a long time that this was something that the Marquis of the East would never accept.

Therefore, as soon as Dongfang Hou finished speaking, he added, "After a hundred years, this king can pass the throne to your son."

Hearing this, Dongfang Hou was a little moved immediately.

He knew that his imperial brother was not lying.Prince Qing didn't have a son, only a adopted daughter, and at his age, it would be unrealistic to want to give birth to a son.What's more, now that the Dongfang Clan's internal children are withered, he has no other choice now.

"How can you guarantee it?" Dongfang Hou was really moved to tell the truth.

In his opinion, it doesn't make any difference whether he sits on this dragon chair or his son sits on it, but he still hopes that Prince Qing can give a guarantee.

Hearing this, Prince Qing first glanced at Gu Xiao who was standing beside Dongfang Hou, then turned his head and glanced at Tuotuo who was standing behind him, and said, "It's very simple, this prince only has one daughter, this prince You can marry Tuotuo to your son, that would be appropriate, right?"

"Father!" Tuotuo, who was standing behind Prince Qing, immediately said coquettishly.

Tuotuo sneaked a glance at Gu Xiao who was standing behind Dongfang Hou, seeing the tall, mighty, imposing Gu Xiao, his pretty face couldn't help but blush.

As the saying goes, which woman is not pregnant, although she is cruel by nature, she is not an emotionless person.With Gu Xiao's conditions, he can definitely be called the number one good man in the world today, not to mention that Tuotuo has long since lost his heart on Gu Xiao.

Dongfang Hou couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, of course he knew which son Prince Qing was talking about.

To be honest, if it was a year ago, if Prince Qing said that, he would have readily accepted it, because it meant that he would be able to get the strong support of Prince Qing, but as the saying goes, one moment and another moment!

For Dongfanghou today, Gu Xiao's son is no longer as important as before.

Because what he hopes most now is to help his son born with Concubine Ju to the throne!

Gu Xiao stood aside, seeing Dongfang Hou's hesitation, his heart was filled with sorrow.

Of course he knew why Dongfang Hou was hesitant. Dongfang Hou was afraid that if he took the route of Prince Qing, he would pose a threat to his beloved son's status.Gu Xiao knew this very well in his heart.It was only because of this that he felt even more sad.

I saved the life of this cheap old man, saved his woman and son, and even single-handedly helped him to the position where he is only one step away from the throne.However, in his heart, his status is still inferior to that of his youngest son!Could it be that the son a beloved woman gave birth to was really that much more important than myself?
Perhaps family affection is simply a very extravagant thing for me!Gu Xiao said sadly in his heart.

Dongfang Hou asked after a while: "Brother Huang, do you mean that you hope that Sheng'er will succeed you in the future?"

"Of course, Sheng'er is courageous, resourceful, and intelligent. There is no one in my Dongfang family who can beat him!" While speaking, Prince Qing gave Gu Xiao admiring glances.

For Gu Xiao, a nephew, on the one hand, Prince Qing resented him for ruining his good deeds many times, and on the other hand, he admired his talent from the bottom of his heart.

As for my capable nephew, even if he is not in the same way as me at all, as an elder, he will somewhat appreciate it in his heart.Undoubtedly, Prince Qing now has such a similar feeling for Gu Xiao, that's why he chose to make Gu Xiao his successor.

Dongfang Hou said: "Brother Huang, Sheng'er already has six women, and she really is not a good match for Tuotuo's niece!"

During this period of time, besides taking possession of the four women, Gu Xiao also brought Liu Shengxueji into his backyard. As for Liu Shengxueji's father, Liu Shengdan Ma Shou, he has now brought the Central Plains court to canonize him as a The imperial edict of Dongying martial arts leader has returned to Dongying.

Prince Qing was surprised when he heard the words, and asked back: "Then what do you think?"

Dongfang Hou pondered for a while, and said, "Is the emperor interested in recognizing a foster son?"

Click it!Hearing this, Gu Xiao immediately clenched his fists tightly.

Of course he knew what Dongfang Hou meant by these words. Dongfang Hou wanted Prince Qing to recognize the little prince as his adopted son, and then raise the little prince from an early age!

This old guy treats his two sons so differently, this is absolutely unacceptable to him!

Even though he had never been interested in that dragon chair in his heart, he couldn't help but feel a little chilled at this moment!
Could it be that, in the face of power, is there really no such thing as flesh and blood?Gu Xiao asked himself from the bottom of his heart.

Prince Qing and Dongfanghou were still negotiating, but Gu Xiao was not interested in continuing to listen.

At this moment, he has never been so eager, eager to return to the Star Continent.

Even on the Continent of Stars, family love is still an unattainable luxury for him, but even if he can't get it, he feels better than now.After all, having a thought in your heart is at least better than having no thought at all!

Maybe, I shouldn't expect any family affection at all?Gu Xiao sighed inwardly.
