Jing Yuan didn't speak.

After a long time, he picked up the teapot on the table, poured tea for Xiao Jining, and said, "Ning Ning, after all, you are too easy to soften your heart. You can rule a prosperous world, but it is difficult to calm a chaotic world."

Xiao Jining looked down at the tea in the cup in front of him that was gradually filling up, and murmured: "I..."

"But this is you." Jing Yuan put down the teapot, put his hands on Xiao Jining's head, and gently led him to lean against him, "You can keep your soft heart, you don't need to change, I will calm down for you in troubled times , you only need to live in the prosperous world, I just want you to live freely."

"What about you?" Xiao Jining didn't raise his head, he just closed his eyes and buried his head in Jing Yuan's waist. The mysterious armor on Jing Yuan's body was cold and hard, and it was very uncomfortable to lean on, but Xiao Jining just didn't want to leave, "I always feel that I Didn't give you anything."

Jing Yuan laughed when he heard the words, and he said: "What I gave you is neither what you want most, nor is it something important, so you don't owe me anything."

"Isn't the throne important enough?" Xiao Jining didn't laugh when he heard the words, and it didn't matter if he didn't.

"At least for the two of us, it doesn't matter." Jing Yuan half-kneeled in front of Xiao Jining, looked into his eyes and said, "What I did, it will take two days at most, after two days, you will know Answer."

Xiao Jining promised him, "Okay."

The two days are not long at all. With the precedent of the Sixth Prince coming here to give away the head, Xiao Jining feels that no one will dare to come to him in the next two days. After all, the fourth and fifth princes have such personalities. I just like to play with yin, and I don't like to come to light.

Encouraging the Sixth Prince is not going to work now, and there will be no other actions in a while.

During the time they were trapped in Li Xinggong, Xiao Jining also talked to Xiaodan and asked Xiaodan what the current situation was like, but Xiaodan told Xiao Jining that it was just a system, and it was still an imperfect one. The system, all the plots related to the original book, can occasionally go through the back door to give Xiao Jining some spoilers, but the current situation has completely deviated from the original book, and it doesn't know what to do next. If it encounters such a situation in the game, He can only hope that the Central General will be reliable and able to suppress the rebels, otherwise it will be game over.

But now it is his central general, Jing Yue, who is rebelling.

So Xiao Jining felt that Xiaodan's answer was useless, so he stopped asking about it.

And two days later, that is, three nights before Concubine Zhen, Jingyue finally started to attack the mountain. Fortunately, he didn't use fire to attack.Perhaps Jingyue knew that the fire attack would not be able to attack Lishan, and his army could not go deep into Lishan because of the fire, so he used the most direct way - relying on the number of people to attack Lishan.

There were only [-] soldiers outside Lishan Palace, and they took advantage of the high mountain to force Jingyue to go up the mountain with the rain of arrows, but it was impossible for the soldiers to shoot arrows continuously, and there were not so many bows and arrows in Lixing Palace.

Therefore, on the first day when Jingyue began to attack the mountain, the imperial guards of Li Xinggong could still hold the fire canal to prevent Jingyue's army from crossing, but on the second day, when the bodies of the fallen soldiers could almost cover the fire canal When it was full, the imperial guards of Li Xinggong were already at a disadvantage, and many soldiers were killed or injured.

However, the 20 imperial guards had no chance of winning against the [-] elite soldiers. They could only rely on defending Li Xinggong and waiting for the arrival of foreign reinforcements. However, judging from the current situation, whether Li Xinggong could last until the reinforcements arrived? It's hard to say.

On the second night of Jingyue's attack on the mountain, everyone could not fall asleep, or they had not been able to close their eyes and fall asleep peacefully since the first day of Jingyue's attack on the mountain, but at that time they could comfort themselves quietly Don't think too much when you stay in bed, and now—everyone can't even sit still.

On the second night, whether it was Concubine Zhen, the Fifth Prince, or Queen Mother Chun and Qiao Xi who was under house arrest, they all went to Yugui Island in the Palace of Picking Stars to stay together.The Star Reaching Palace is the highest palace in Li Xing Palace. Once Li Xing Palace is broken, this will be their last line of defense, and it may also be their burial place.

No one fell asleep that night, and everyone was silent and did not speak.

However, even so, the annoyance and worry between the eyebrows of the fifth and fourth princes could not be hidden. They may be regretting in their hearts at the moment, and they should have directly led their own actions when they received the secret report. It is only for the personal soldiers to leave the capital for refuge, why bother to follow Xiao Jining to this Li Xing Palace?If they were not in the capital, even if Li Xing Palace was broken, Xiao Jining died, and Jing Yue ascended the throne, as long as they survived, there would be a day when they would lead their troops to make a comeback, and they would not be trapped in the dilemma of living in Li Xing Palace.

In the dead silence, the panic in everyone's hearts was magnified. The Empress Dowager Chun couldn't bear it any longer when she heard the clash of swords and guns and the shouting and shouting of soldiers outside Li Xing Palace, and pushed the palace people to present her Tea for calming the mind and calming the mind, and shouted: "How many days have passed, why haven't the imperial guards from the capital come to rescue us?"

Xiao Jining raised his eyes to look at the Empress Dowager Chun when he heard the words, and also glanced at Concubine Zhen who was sitting on the right back side of the Empress Dowager Chun.

Concubine Zhen also had a frowning and worried look on her face, but she only drank a few sips of the Jingxin Anshen tea in front of her—you know, even the Fifth Prince had already drank this Jingxin Anshen tea It's a trick, let alone other people.

The Empress Dowager Chun found that Xiao Jining was looking in her direction, and thought that Xiao Jining was looking at her. She followed Xiao Jining's gaze, and saw Jing Yuan standing behind Xiao Jining expressionless and silent.

"Jingyuan——!" In the next moment, the Empress Dowager Chun seemed to have found someone to vent her fear, and said to Jingyuan, "You are a major general of Zhenguo, and your father is now leading troops to rebel. The emperor misses you and leaves you alone." Fate, why are you still greedy for life and afraid of death?"

"The reason why I stay here is to protect His Majesty." Jing Yue squinted at the Empress Dowager Chun, without opening his eyes to look at her, and said in a contemptuous tone, "If the minister left the Li Xing Palace and His Majesty was assassinated, who will be responsible for it?" Responsible?"

"There are so many guards here, why does the emperor need you to protect?" The Empress Dowager Chun opened her eyes wide, she lost her previous dignified appearance, and she looked like a shrew in the mountains when she confronted Jing Yuan, "You should go outside quickly and kill The Jingyue dog thief is!"

It's just that Jing Yuan is not Xiao Jining, Xiao Jining would give in to the Queen Mother because of his kindness, but Jing Yuan would not, so as soon as the Queen Mother's words fell, he curled his lips and sneered, and said: "Oh, hello, Queen Mother Great majesty, look at your posture at this time, you can already go out to fight against Jingyue on my behalf, why do I need to do it myself? Looking at your appearance, I can hardly remember how you were before your Majesty was enthroned. Flattery is flattering, or else you can relive it for me again, and beg me with some kind words, maybe I will remember it, and maybe I will show compassion and do as you wish."

Jing Yuan cherishes words like gold on weekdays, except for Xiao Jining, he has almost never said such a long sentence in front of others, but now he speaks such a long sentence in front of everyone, it is full of curse words without dirty words, angry The Empress Dowager Dechun was so ashamed and angry that she could hardly stand up, but she pointed at Jingyuan "you, you, you" for a long time, but she couldn't say anything else.

The sixth prince listened to Jingyuan scolding the pure queen mother, lowered his head and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He didn't know whether it was the cold sweat that was frightened by Jingyue or Jingyuan. Where did the Japanese have the guts to say bad things about Jingyuan? Could it be that they were really deceived by lard?He remembered that his Ninth Emperor brother used to be the most gentle and timid and would not scold others. The day before yesterday Xiao Jining scolded him like that, maybe he learned from Jing Yuan.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager Chun had shut her mouth honestly, Jing Yuan sneered again, turned around and even gave her a cold look, her appearance of disdain and contempt reached the extreme.

After Yu Gui Island became quiet again, Xiao Ji Ning quietly moved two steps towards Jing Yuan, and whispered: "It's really nice of you to scold."

"It's all made by exchanging words with Jing Yue." Jing Yuan smiled, his eyes filled with tenderness, "I will teach you a few more words after returning to the palace."

Xiao Jining also smiled, and said cheerfully: "Okay."

It's just that after laughing, Xiao Jining inevitably felt a little sad in his heart.

At this time, Jingyuan said again: "The soldiers are about to lose their hold. At noon tomorrow at the latest, the fire prevention canal will be broken."

Once the defense line of the fire prevention canal is breached, the Jingyue can enter Lishan Mountain like no one, approach Li Xinggong, or even break through Xinggong.

When Xiao Jining was still in a daze, he heard Jing Yuan say: "So I will go to battle tomorrow morning."

"Then, then you..." Xiao Jining's Adam's apple rolled up and down, but he still didn't dare to ask that question.

Jing Yuan gave a low laugh, and told Xiao Jining: "I will not die, and Jing Yue will not want me to die either."

Just because you won't die doesn't mean you'll be fine.

Jing Yue doesn't want to kill you, because killing you is not enough to vent his anger.

These words lingered in Xiao Jining's throat for a long time, but in the end he still didn't say it, he just said: "Then you have to come back properly, I'll wait for you to teach me how to scold the Queen Mother back."

"Okay." Jing Yuan said in a deep voice. In order to make Xiao Jining relax, he even joked, "When I come back, I will teach you how to be an unfilial son."

Xiao Jining lowered his head and smiled muffledly: "Yes."

In the early morning of the third day, the day of Concubine Zhen's birthday, the defense line of the Lishan Imperial Guard was finally breached by Jing Yue.The pure empress dowager lay limp on the spot, supported by the palace people, some timid palace people even cried softly.

Xiao Jining was standing on Yugui Island. At this time, he didn't need to rely on binoculars, he could see Jingyue's army pressing down on Li Xinggong like black clouds destroying the city. He looked at this scene with sadness in his eyes and pain.

But the pain was not for himself, but for those soldiers who fell under the iron spear of the Jingyue army because of protecting them.

Jing Yuan moved his thumb slightly, slowly stroking the saber at his waist, and then said to Xiao Jining: "Ningning, I'm leaving."

"Okay." Xiao Jining didn't look at Jing Yuan standing behind him, but agreed to him.

"Someone might want to kill you." Jing Yuan didn't ask Xiao Jining to turn around and look at him, "But I can't stay and protect you."

He just said to Xiao Jining: "You have to live well."

"I will." Xiao Jining resisted not turning around to hug Jingyuan, promised him, and also begged him——

"You too."
