Empress Chu

"Did sister write back?" Xiao Yu asked again, staring at him, "Show me."

Xie Yanlai immediately shook her head: "No, there is no time for her to write a letter."

Xiao Yu looked disappointed, and asked again: "Then can I write to my sister?"

Xie Yanlai said: "The station soldiers don't have time to read the letter when they are on the road." However, he looked at the eagerly looking child, but he didn't completely refuse, "You can't read the letter until she arrives in Yunzhong County. "

There was a smile in the child's eyes: "That's good, that's good, my sister can watch a lot in one go."

Xie Yanlai stood up: "There is nothing else, I will leave."

The child took his hand and called: "Uncle, if it was someone else, they would definitely not tell my sister that she was attacked, but would only say that everything is fine." He looked up at Xie Yanlai with a face full of dependence, "Uncle is the most reliable person I have ever heard of." people."

Xie Yanlai looked down at the child who was not as tall as her own legs, and the corner of her mouth curled up: "This kind of thing is a risk, and it can't make people feel at ease if you say it well, only knowing the real situation can make you feel at ease."

He reached out and stroked the child's cheek.

This was probably the first time that Xie Yanlai was so intimate with him, Xiao Yu seemed surprised and froze, he rushed over and hugged Xie Yanlai's waist and arms, Xie Yanlai always avoided shaking him in disgust.

This uncle looks better than that uncle, but his breath is not as pleasing as that uncle's. His hands are obviously fair, but when he touches his face, it is like a rough stone.

"Since you know that I can make you feel at ease, don't play tricks in the future." Xie Yanlai said in a low voice, "Little guy, if you don't like Xie Yanfang, just tell him, don't use me as a raft, once or twice is enough, Stop it forever."

Chapter 43 Offensive

The rough palm brushed across the immature cheek, and there was a chill.

The child was stiff and motionless.

He looked straight at Xie Yanlai and moved his lips, as if he wanted to say Uncle, I don't understand you, but he didn't say anything.

Xie Yanlai didn't speak any more, she withdrew her hand and backed away step by step, then bowed down to salute the frozen child: "I'll take my leave."

Without waiting for permission, he turned around and strode out.

When Eunuch Qi saw him coming out, he quickly saluted with a smile: "It's easy to go, Captain."

Xie Yan came to see him without even looking at him and went straight away.

Eunuch Qi didn't care about his attitude, he hurried into the hall, and saw Xiao Yu standing by the table with a wrong expression.

"Your Majesty." He hurried over and whispered, "Are you alright?"

Xiao Yu turned his head to look at him, Eunuch Qi saw the child's immature right cheek blushing slightly, and his heart skipped a beat, this Xie Yan came, wouldn't he hit His Majesty!

Although this Xie Yanlai was guarding the palace that night, and now he is leading the Longwei army to protect the imperial capital, Miss Chu trusts him very much, but seeing this Xie Yanlai, he just feels uneasy.

He could see that Xie Yanfang was dedicated to His Majesty, but this Xie Yanlai, he did not dare to think so.

Although they are all surnamed Xie, although they are all the emperor's uncles, even though their status and status, their future honor and disgrace are all tied to the emperor.

But this Xie Yanlai is still a bit unclear.

He doesn't seem to care about anything—

Eunuch Qi half knelt down and carefully asked: "Your Majesty, what happened?"

If this Xie Yanlai was really rebellious and domineering and beat His Majesty, he would definitely—tell Miss Chu Zhao.

Xiao Yu looked at him, his eyes were slightly red: "Uncle said, my sister was attacked."

Eunuch Qi was taken aback, but at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out to be like this.

Xie Yanlai really doesn't care about other people's feelings and identities, but his heart is honest, and it's a good intention to say so——Although His Majesty is a child, he can't just be obedient and deceive, and it is best for him to tell His Majesty the real truth of.

And since it can be said that it is dangerous, it proves that the danger has passed.

"Ah." Eunuch Qi fell to his knees on the ground with a frightened look, grabbed Xiao Yu's arm, and his voice changed, "What should I do! What should I do! Your Majesty, let the Taifu dispatch troops!"

Xiao Yu was amused, and hurriedly supported Eunuch Qi, saying: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, sister is fine, and sister is not afraid at all, continue to move forward."

Eunuch Qi was still in shock: "Is it true? But what happened?"

Xiao Yu said: "I don't know much. My uncle has just received the news, and I have to wait to report the details."

Eunuch Qi patted his chest: "It's frightening to death, the old slave has long said that he shouldn't go."

He sighed.

Xiao Yu comforted him, and also spoke for Chu Zhao: "How can my sister be the kind of person who will not do anything when she is in danger? If that is the case, she will not save me that day."

That night, in fact, Miss Chu didn't have to save them, just relying on the Longwei army in Chu Yu's hands, and took refuge in Xiao Xun, Xiao Xun would also give Miss Chu a queen, and Eunuch Qi was an adult, so he knew it very well.

"Yes." He half-kneeled on the ground, stroking Xiao Yu's arm, "Miss Chu is a brave person, and her bravery is also for those who care about her. Your Majesty, you are the same as Miss Chu's father. She is not afraid of hardships and dangers." People who should also be protected and cared for.”

Xiao Yu nodded: "I know, I am in my sister's heart." He put his hand on his heart, "My sister is also in my heart."

Eunuch Qi saluted: "Your Majesty is wise." After finishing speaking, he stood up and took Xiao Yu's hand, "Your Majesty, finish your meal and start studying."

……

……

Xie Yanlai walked in the palace with a calm expression, not feeling that the previous behavior towards the emperor was too much.

The emperor, what about the emperor, little boy.

It is not certain whether it will survive or not.

Moreover, there are many people who are dissatisfied with him, and it is not always the turn for the brat to take revenge.

Xie Yanlai sneered at the corner of her mouth, her eyes were cold.

Also, the little boy is worthy of the blood of Xie's family, and he has a wicked heart at a young age.

Can Chu Zhao see it?Tell her, will this dead girl say him again, what kind of life did you live in Xie's house, you always speculate about a child like this.

Thinking of this, he sneered, he didn't want to meddle in other people's business, then Chu Zhao also had a wicked heart at a young age, so let the two of them fool around.

He walked quickly, and there were two people rushing towards him, one imperial guard and one official general, the imperial guard was okay, but the general was a little flustered, it seemed that he was entering the palace for the first time, although he was walking fast, his footsteps were flimsy——

"Boss Zhang." Xie Yan stopped and called out.

Only then did the imperial guards and Zhang Gu see him, and rushed over even faster, "Captain Xie."

There was news so soon, Xie Yanlai's cold eyes faded away, and she looked at Zhang Gu: "Come and sit indoors and talk."

How it was attacked, how it was checked, the identity of the attacker, and the new guards, etc., it took a long time to talk about it in detail.

But Zhang Gu didn't follow him, but took a step forward and said anxiously: "Ah Jiu, something happened."

Xie Yanlai was suffocated for a moment by the undeserved title Ah Jiu.

What happened?How could something happen to her?Nothing should happen to her—

"——Xiliang soldiers have violated the border." Zhang Gu continued.

Xie Yanlai poured it into his internal organs in one breath, stepped on the ground, raised his eyebrows and scolded: "If you violate the border, you will violate the border. There is no need to panic!"

Zhang Gu was stunned for a moment, why not panic about such a big matter?

Looking at the dull face of the young general in front of him again, he sighed again, Ah Jiu is indeed extraordinary, calm in situations, and does not change color even when Mount Tai is overwhelmed.

Zhang Gu quickly regained his composure, and said loudly: "What the captain taught me is true."

Xie Yan came to see him, and asked in a deep voice, "What's going on? Tell me carefully."

……

……

"The envoy from Xiliang said that he would pay tribute to the late emperor and congratulate the new emperor on his enthronement."

"But they have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses."

"General Wei Chu Yu directly beheaded the Xiliang envoy, saying that there is no need to go, and the head can be sent."

In the main hall at this time, Xie Yanfang also got the news, and immediately asked the Grand Tutor and court officials to come, and the little emperor who was eating was also urgently called to sit on the dragon chair.

Listening to the post report, the officials looked shocked.

"This—" an official couldn't help but say, "General Chu is too—be more careful, isn't this leading to a war?"

Xie Yanfang said: "General Chu decided to intimidate immediately, and changed from passive to active. Since the Xiliang envoys have brought troops, it is for the sake of fighting. No matter how cautious they are, it is inevitable."

That's true, if you really want to come to see him, you don't need to bring tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

"The king of Xiliang is really wicked!" An official said angrily, "The one who was beaten knelt down and begged for mercy for so long, and now he sees that there are changes in my Great Xia Dynasty, and he immediately jumps out with evil intentions!"

The officials in the palace were noisy and angry, and the Xiliang thieves were hateful.

Deng Yi stopped everyone: "There is no anger at all. The king of Xiliang has always been like this. We also know that he is not dead, so Bianjun has been stationed with heavy troops. Since he dares to come at this time, let's teach him again."

He turned around and bowed to the emperor on the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty, please issue an edict to the world to fight against Xiliang."

Xiao Yu sat on the dragon chair, no matter whether he heard the post report earlier or the officials were angry, he didn't respond. The officials felt that the children didn't understand the seriousness of the matter, or they were frightened.

Hearing Deng Yi's words, Xiao Yu nodded and said, "I will definitely fight, Da Xia is never afraid of a fight."

The officials were a little surprised. The children understood and knew how to say it.

A smile appeared on Xie Yanfang's face. A child who has experienced the tragic death of his parents and was almost murdered himself, how could he be afraid of this? He leaned over and saluted: "Minister, wait for Da Xia, die without fear."

Without any hesitation, the officials all kowtowed in unison, "I am not afraid of death for Da Xia."

Chapter 44 War

The number of galloping soldiers and horses in the capital increased obviously, and the sensitive people suddenly became nervous.

What's going on again?

To track down the remnants of the third prince, the Zhao family?It won't take so long to use such soldiers and horses, right?Are there many remnants?

Or the King of Zhongshan——

Although the court never made it clear, the people noticed King Zhongshan’s anomaly. Whether it was the burial of the first emperor or the enthronement of the new emperor, King Zhongshan seemed to have disappeared. No one appeared, not even envoys and gifts.

King Zhongshan has indeed disappeared in the capital for a long time, but if he still disappears at this time, the people have to think of him.

Does King Zhongshan have any dissatisfaction?

Does the court have any dissatisfaction with King Zhongshan?

Could it be that just after the turmoil between the prince and the third prince, there will be turmoil between the court and the prince?The king of Zhongshan is not a prince without a fief. If he has a fief, children and money, if he really wants to fight, it will stir up half of the summer.

All kinds of news were flying around the capital in an instant. When the people were about to flee the capital with their families, the imperial court announced the news that the king of Xiliang had invaded and the emperor ordered to fight.

The war between the two countries is bigger than that between the court and the prince, and it affects the whole of Great Xia, but the hearts of the people have settled down. First, the war in the frontier county is far away, and second, it’s not like they haven’t fought before. The defeated general, besides, the foreign enemy invaded, not the inner brothers fighting behind closed doors, especially seeing the imperial edict written by the little emperor——

The little emperor said that he had undergone a sudden change, his clan had self-mutilated, he lost his parents and relatives overnight, his relatives were no longer relatives, and his grandfather also died of grief.

The king of Xiliang attacked his family while he was in distress.

Although he is only six years old, he is not afraid to fight with it.

He will protect the safety of the people of Daxia and guard the land of Daxia, just like the first emperor and his ancestors.

This edict was written in the tone of a child, and even many words were childish, but no one was mocking or picking on the non-compliance with the edict standard, but read it with excitement and sour eyes.

That's right, this is bullying, what can't be tolerated, although the emperor is young, but the big summer is magnificent, how can he be bullied by Xiliang children.

All of a sudden, the capital was panicked, righteous indignation filled the air like a rainbow, and the remaining panic due to the turmoil of the prince and the third prince also completely dissipated.

"The timing is like this." Deng Yi said, "The King of Xiliang thinks this is his timing, but in fact it is also His Majesty's timing."

After this battle, the little emperor's reputation in the hearts of the people will surely increase, and the people will love him as their own child, and respect him as the supreme emperor.

He looked at Xie Yanfang who was sitting opposite, and smiled slightly.

"The third son's imperial edict is well written."

There is nothing good about the literary talent of this imperial edict, but the sincerity of the child is simple and easy to understand, and Deng Yi's praise is sincere.

He really admired Xie Yanfang from the bottom of his heart, Mr. Xie Yanfang was impeccable in his learning and conduct in the world.

But it's just admiration.

Xie Yanfang smiled and said, "It's good for Taifu to make a decisive decision."

Previously, there were some disputes in the court about whether to announce the war in Bianjun. Most officials disagreed, saying that the people would be uneasy and prone to chaos due to successive incidents.

"Deng Yi!" An old official was so angry that he called Deng Yi's name directly in the court, "Whose court is this? Do you keep your word?"
