"Your Majesty Qizuo, is His Royal Highness King Qin seeking an audience?"

At this time, there was a loud notification from the guards outside the door.

Xiao Ji frowned, his eyes became a little complicated.

During this time, many ministers wrote letters to impeach Xiao Jie, but only Xiao Huang wrote to defend Xiao Jie, who sang against the royal party and most officials, thinking that before the matter was investigated and the truth came out, no conclusion should be made, and even more so. Xiao Jie should not be punished indiscriminately.

Xiao Ji was very pleased with Xiao Huang's attitude. He thought that because of the matter of Su Yao and Wang Yu, even if the relationship between the two brothers could not be said to be in turmoil, it would not be much better, but he did not Thinking that when Xiao Jie was in trouble, not only did Xiao Huang not make trouble, but he tried his best to protect his younger brother, which Xiao Ji was happy to see.

Although he is the son of heaven, he is also a father, and no father would not wish his sons to be harmonious and respectful among brothers.

It's just that when Xiao Huang came to him at this time, he had a vague feeling that it must be related to the Wang family.

After all, the Taiyuan Wang family intends to marry their daughter to Han Wang Xiaoxun. It is obvious that the Wang family intends to change their families and support Han Wang Xiaoxun. Xiao Huang, the son-in-law of the Langya Wang family, cannot remain indifferent.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ji's mood was naturally complicated, and his hatred for the Wang family deepened. First it was Xun'er, then Huang'er, and now it was Xun'er's turn. How many sons did they plan to go to the Wang family? Repeatedly jumping sideways, let his own sons continue to turn against each other.

But Xiao Huang was already outside the door, and it was hard for Xiao Ji to see him, so he had to order the guards to announce him an audience.

As soon as Xiao Huang entered the imperial study room, he saw the Duan inkstone that had been smashed to pieces on the ground at a glance, and his thoughts suddenly turned sharply.

He just saw the eighth younger brother Xiao Xun at the gate of the palace, with a happy face, looking like a good thing is about to happen, and he also heard that Wang Zheng, the head of the Wang family in Taiyuan, intends to marry Xiao Xun, so he naturally knows where Xiao Xun's joy comes from.

Now seeing the broken Duan inkstone on the ground, he naturally understood where his father's anger came from.

On the contrary, he was determined in his heart, it seemed that it was right for him to draw a clear line with the Wang family, the Wang family had already become a heart problem of his father, anyone who dared to mess with it would be a violation of his father's rebellion.

But he still pretended that he didn't see anything, bowed his head and said respectfully: "I see my father."

Xiao Ji nodded slightly, and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, get back on your feet. I don't know why you came to see me?"

Xiao Huang didn't get up and didn't speak, but just looked at Lian Yi who was standing beside him.

Lian Yi was very tactful, before Xiao Ji could speak, he voluntarily left the imperial study room, and closed the door very considerately, leaving only the father and son behind.

"Tell me, what is it that is so mysterious that even Lian Yi can't listen to it?"

Xiao Ji looked at his son quietly, with a playful tone.

Xiao Huang still didn't say a word, just kowtowed heavily to Xiao Ji, and said in a deep voice: "My son wants to go to Liangzhou, please grant permission from the emperor."

"Why are you going to Liangzhou!" Xiao Ji's eyes suddenly became sharp, staring at his son, his tone couldn't help but aggravate.

Xiao Ji had an ominous premonition in his heart. Now Wang Chong obviously planned to abandon Xiao Huang and support Xiao Xun, but Xiao Huang proposed to leave the capital for Liangzhou at this time.

You know, Xiao Huang is just Wang Chong's grandson-in-law, and the relationship is not considered close. As long as he is ruthless, he can give up Xiao Huang at any time, but Wang Cheng is different. Xiao Huang married his only precious daughter. He hopes for Xiao Huang more than anyone else. Being able to rule the world, so that his daughter can be the mother of the world, and he, Wang Cheng, can become the head of the country in one leap.

Xiao Ji even felt that although Wang Chong had made up his mind to give up Xiao Huang, Wang Cheng who was far away in Liangzhou might not agree with his father's decision.

Therefore, under the current situation, Wang Chong decided to give up Xiao Huang, but Xiao Huang went to Liangzhou to join his father-in-law. He clearly wanted to put pressure on the Wang family in the capital through Wang Cheng, forcing them not to give up easily.

A burst of deep disappointment welled up in Xiao Ji's heart instantly. When is the time, will this son of his still hold on to this rotten tree of the Wang family and not let go, and go the same way as the Wang family?

Xiao Huang lifted him up, met Xiao Ji's sharp gaze without fear, his eyes were full of firmness and determination: "Reporting to my father, I want to go to Liangzhou for no other reason than to imitate my seventh younger brother and do my best for me." Ning opened up the territory, swept across the Western Regions, and rebuilt the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate."

Xiao Ji was slightly taken aback, as if he hadn't thought at all that Xiao Huang wanted to go to Liangzhou to rebuild the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate and restore the Central Plains Dynasty's rule over the Western Regions.

But Xiao Ji's heart seemed to warm up all of a sudden. The emperor he admired the most in his life was Emperor Wu of the Qin Dynasty. The establishment of the six major protectorates of Anxi, Anbei, Andong, Annan, Shanyu, and Beiting made the territory of the Qin Dynasty reach the acme of all dynasties.

He still has an ambition to expand the territory in his heart, otherwise, after Xiao Jie found the evidence of rebellion against the emperor in Linyi Kingdom, he would immediately announce the removal of the title of Linyi Kingdom and restore the titles of Jiuzhen County and Rinan County, because In his heart, there shouldn't be any Linyi Kingdom in the world, where there should be Jiuzhen County and Rinan County in Daning, which is the territory that his idol Qin Wudi lost his army and defeated.

However, Xiao Ji soon calmed down. At the beginning of his succession, he also wanted to follow the example of Emperor Wu of Qin, expand the territory for Daning, and restore the territory to the time when the Great Qin was at its peak. Hu was staring at him, coupled with the fact that there were royal parties fighting against dissidents in the court, and Wang Cheng supported himself in the local area, he didn't dare to act rashly, lest he make a wrong move, he is a sinner of Daning through the ages, how can he face the Xiao family after death? Ancestors and ancestors.

"I am very relieved that Huang'er has such a heart, but the time has not yet come, and it is too early to say that he will send troops to the Western Regions."

Xiao Ji smiled and rejected Xiao Huang, but there was clearly a hint of disappointment and approval in his tone.

"No! Father, in my son's opinion, now is the best time to send troops to the Western Regions." Xiao Huang shook his head, but his tone became more firm.

Xiao Ji was not angry because of Xiao Huang's insistence, he also saw that his son had come prepared, so he asked in a deep voice, "Why do you think now is the best time to send troops to the Western Regions?"

Xiao Huang didn't answer Father's question directly, but instead asked: "Father, in the 18th year of Jingxing, the imperial court dispatched troops and generals, intending to send troops to the Western Regions, but why did nothing happen in the end?"

It was good that Xiao Huang didn't say those words, but when he said those words, Xiao Ji's complexion instantly became extremely gloomy.
