Thinking

"There's nothing dissatisfied, at least let Great Liang cut off his flesh, Duji Hubu's life will not be easier," Qi Si smiled, very calm.

Emperor Su nodded: "You are a person who understands the general situation, good boy, I have not misunderstood you."

Looking at the sword again, he said: "Break away, the world will be peaceful, and there will be no separation in the world... Yes, I will study and practice martial arts with peace of mind in the future. If I regret it, I will tell Gu and let Xiao Zhi and Pei Nanxian go to Daliang to take that sword." The head of Duji Falcon is coming."

Qi Si laughed: "Forget it, Shen Yingwei travels thousands of miles, just because of his head, it's not worth it."

Sudi smiled: "A man should be generous and informal, that's very good."

After talking to Qi Si again, he was sent back to the prime minister's mansion.

When they arrived at Xiangfu, Jiang Xunyan and Jiang Xuan were both there.

Jiang Xuan was still at ease, leaning lazily on the chair in the hall, seeing Qi Si come back with the Poli sword, and asked, "Have you accepted King Daliang's apology?"

Qi Si nodded: "Apologizing still has a lot of gold in it, it's almost enough."

Jiang Xuan laughed: "Take it when you see it, not bad."

Seeing the sword again, he asked, "How about it, I got a good one by accident?"

Qi Si asked him with a smile: "How do you know what I like?"

Jiang Xuan raised his eyebrows: "I have seen countless people, and I can tell at a glance that you are compatible with this sword's aura."

Qi Si smiled and cupped his fists and said, "Young Master Jiang has good eyesight."

He said again: "Fortunately, Yuan Feng asked them to give it to me, otherwise it would be really difficult to use it. The sword that Duji Falcon bought in exchange always feels uncomfortable."

Jiang Xuan shook his head: "Don't be so particular, even if it was exchanged by Duji Falcon, the sword is innocent."

Jiang Xunyan looked at the Poli sword, and said to Qi Si: "This sword is the sword worn by Jin State General Rui Chu when he was young. It is destined for you, so take it with you."

Hearing what Jiang Xunyan said, Qisi wanted to ask some questions in his heart, but he held back after thinking about it, and wanted to ask him alone later.

Jiang Xunyan stayed with them for a while, and before leaving, he told Jiang Xuan to stay in the Prime Minister's mansion honestly this time until next summer, and then left.

Seeing Jiang Xuan's wilted look immediately, Qisi wanted to laugh but didn't dare.

In the past few days, when Qisi practiced martial arts in the morning and evening, he used this Poli sword, at first he felt that the Poli sword was a bit heavy, but after using it, he took advantage of it a lot, and it really fit him.

When confronting Jiang Xuan, when the Poli sword touched the Yanzhi sword, the voice was thick and clear, which was really different from usual.

One day, Jiang Xuan went out, and Jiang Xunyan rarely had time in the mansion to give advice to Qi Si. When the two were talking about the battle between Ruichu and Daliang in the bookstore, Qi Si finally couldn't bear to ask Jiang Xunyan: "Sir, You know General Rae Chu, right?"

Jiang Xunyan didn't expect him to ask this question suddenly, paused, and nodded: "We met when we were young, why do you ask this?"

Qi Si took off the black gold chain attached to the red string inside his collar, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Jiang Xunyan: "Mister, can you recognize this?"

Jiang Xunyan looked at the black gold chain, then at Qi Si, with a complicated expression, nodded and said, "This is the family heirloom of the Rui family. Rui Chu used to carry it on his body."

Qisi looked into Jiang Xunyan's eyes, hesitated to speak, and finally asked, "The family chain?"

Jiang Xunyan thought for a moment, as if he was recalling something, and said: "The Rui family has been a general for generations, and this black gold chain talisman is owned by the head of the family, but now that Rui Chu is dead, His Majesty Jin gave it to you, probably...in memory."

Qi Si asked again: "Is it related to military power?"

Jiang Xunyan nodded: "Since the former dynasty of Dongzhou, the Rui family has held military power for generations and has been loyal to the royal family. The emperor of the previous dynasty gave the Rui family a black gold chain talisman. Until now, in the state of Jin, if Rui Chu is alive, most of the army can be mobilized with this chain talisman , but there is no one in the Rui family, and the chain symbol is just a symbol."

Jiang Xunyan was silent for a moment, then picked up the chain talisman again, fiddled with his fingers a few times, as if he had touched some delicate mechanism.

The chain talisman like a snake buckle twisted and opened the clasp as if it were alive, like a black flower with mysterious color, it changed into the shape of a unicorn. vivid.

Qi Si was very surprised. After Lu Yingqiu gave him the chain talisman, he always thought it was a keepsake of the royal family of the Jin Kingdom. He was not willing to touch it, and never played with it. He didn't expect such an exquisite ingenuity to be included.

Jiang Xunyan touched another delicate mechanism, and the black unicorn turned into that black flower, its branches and petals fluttered and twirled, and it became dormant again into a normal chain symbol like a black snake.

"The Rui family chain talisman mechanism is exquisite. It is said that it was made by the descendants of the Mohist family. It is unique in the world. When I saw you for the first time and saw this chain talisman, I was also a little surprised and emotional. Times have changed."

Qisi took the chain talisman and brought it back to his neck, remembering that day when Duji Hubu saw the chain talisman, he said that "Yu Ke" was Rui Chu's son, presumably it was because of this.

But Jiang Xunyan hesitated for a moment, and said: "But after Rui Chu died, it is said that his saber Kunwu Sword and the black gold chain charm disappeared together. ...how come..."

After thinking about it, he said: "Forget it, I think it's a family matter, so I won't talk too much."

Qi Si smiled: "Actually, I don't know either. I was sent here as soon as I returned to the palace. I don't understand many things."

Jiang Xunyan said: "It's all about the past, so don't worry about it."

Thinking about what Lu Yingqiu and his mother had said to him before——

"Maybe you'll understand later..."

"Don't blame your father, he has his last resort..."

"Your father is a very good person, many people survived because of his efforts..."

After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Sir, you have been teaching me Rui Chu's art of war all this time, because you were touched by this chain talisman?"

Jiang Xunyan was silent for a moment, the emotion in those wise eyes was unclear, and he didn't answer him for a while.

Qi Si tried to ask again: "Did the master recognize me as Rui Chu's son?"

Jiang Xunyan looked up at Qi Si, frowning slightly, but still did not speak.

Jiang Xunyan shook his head: "Your Highness is the prince of a country, so you can't talk nonsense."

Qi wanted to look at him, so he stopped asking, but there were still some doubts buried in his heart.

The envoy left Yan, and Ashinadaro's head was said to have been burned and thrown into the moat.

Qi Si has been behind on her homework in the academy for many days, but it is not difficult to catch up with the progress.

The whole winter slipped away silently amidst the chaos of war, the city of Changyu was peaceful and prosperous, and the capital city was covered with auspicious snow.

The heart defect left by Zhu Yanshou in Qi Si's body has been eradicated, and since then she no longer has any hidden dangers, and she has the confidence to go wherever she goes, and is not afraid of encountering accidents again.

Qi Si wrote back to Yuan Feng, thanking him for gifting him the Poli Sword, and also sent greetings to A Sigu and the others in the letter, but he hadn't received a reply until the Chinese New Year, so he didn't know if his letter had been sent to Great Liang.

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve again, and this was Qisi's second Spring Festival in Yan Country.

At the New Year’s Eve palace banquet, Emperor Su still entertained his ministers. Qisi and Jiang Xuan entered the palace together with Jiang Xunyan, passing through the bustling Changyu street. A bright moon is still the same as before.

Emperor Su still let him meet with him alone before the palace banquet, and Qi Si entered the Palace Book Pavilion, where Emperor Su happened to read the excerpts.

"Happy New Year, Your Majesty! Why are you still reading the brochure?"

The palace man took Ji Si's cloak, and Qi Si walked in quickly, warmed his body by the charcoal basin, and greeted Emperor Su with a smile.

"No way, there are so many ministers, so many people, so many government affairs, and there is only one orphan." Emperor Su put down the booklet, and waved to Qi Si with a smile.

Qisi walked lightly and arrived at Sudi's side.

"Well, it's time to grow tall. Last New Year's Eve, you were still unfamiliar with Gu. You came in timidly, thin and small, and now you are a young man with high spirits."

Emperor Su gestured with his hand and said with emotion.

Qi Si smiled: "Was I really like this at that time? It sounds pitiful."

"Isn't it? I looked at it alone and thought about it. I don't know why you are so scared. I simply let you live in the palace for a New Year's Eve to win you over." Emperor Su laughed and teased him.

Qi Si narrowed his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, don't dare to talk nonsense, otherwise the ministers' notebooks will be handed over like snowflakes, and your majesty will really have no way to live this year."

Qisi's accent had some Jiangnan accents, and Emperor Su laughed when he heard it: "If they bother Gu for these trivial things, Gu might as well quit and take you around the world. As for the excerpts, whoever wants to read them .”

Qi Si shook his head with a smile, and Emperor Su always made jokes informally.

After staying for a while, Emperor Su went to change clothes, and Qi Si left and went to the main hall.

When we arrived at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Qi Si went into the hall and saw Li Xuanrong attending a banquet with Li Cen, Prime Minister of the Right, so he greeted Li Cen and went aside with Li Xuanrong.

When the two talked, Li Xuanrong looked at Qi Siyu's gorgeous attire, with a calm demeanor, and sighed: "It's a good thing I didn't hurt you at the beginning, otherwise, judging by your appearance today, I'm afraid I have made a terrible enemy."

Qi Si couldn't laugh or cry: "I'm not so obsessed with vengeance, isn't this a reconciliation?"

Li Xuanrong said with emotion: "I haven't seen you in the academy this winter, and Kong Yu has ignored me all the time. I have become a model student in the academy. The master even said that he didn't know me anymore, and asked if I had found a substitute. Come."

When Qi Si heard the word "stand-in", his heart skipped a beat, he smiled helplessly, and asked him: "You and Li Yan are no longer playing together?"

Li Xuanrong is very innocent: "I've stopped hanging out with them a long time ago. It's not interesting to make trouble every day, but Kong Yu... oh..."

Qi Si was very strange: "You didn't go to him either? He still values ​​you as a friend, otherwise why would he be so angry?"

Li Xuanrong waved his hand: "Forget it, you don't understand..." He raised his glass and touched Qi Si's glass, raised his head and drank the wine in one gulp, looking like he was full of worries and was drinking away his sorrows.

Qi Si: "..." I really don't understand him.

"The envoy arrives at—"

The eunuch summoned.

After hearing the sound, Qi Si and Li Xuanrong turned their heads to look at the entrance of the main hall.

This year Great Liang will not allow Duji Falcon to make up for it, otherwise, according to Emperor Su's will, they will be hacked to death as soon as they enter the northern border.

Ben just glanced casually, but saw a familiar figure from a distance, Qi Si was so surprised that he almost threw the cup in his hand.
