As for why they stopped fighting now, Xiao Jining was not clear.

All he knew was that they had fought so badly that there were only two good chairs left in the room.

Just now Li Yihui and Jing Yuan shared one seat, now that he came, Jing Yuan and Li Yihui got up together to make two seats available.

Xiao Jining picked a place where he could set his feet, walked over the broken porcelain and furniture debris on the ground, walked to the chair that Jingyuan had just vacated, sat down, tapped the armrest a few times with his fingers, and said: "You know I'm coming over Bar."

Although it was a question, it was said without a trace of doubt.

Li Yihui deliberately told him his address, just to make it easier for him to find it; even Jing Yuan had bluntly hinted at the beginning that he had "something" to do, but Xiao Jining was only able to react when he returned to the palace.

Due to his status, Xiao Jining had very few friends, even a handful of them, counting with fingers, only Ruan Jiaren, Tan Qingxuan, Xishu Mu Kui, Wen Yu and others can be counted.Li Yi recalled that he was one of the few friends he met outside the palace that he could chat with, but the current situation told him that this friend was probably related to the assassin who assassinated him.

Xiao Jining also couldn't tell what kind of feeling he felt in his heart, loss and sadness were far from being considered, but there was no shortage of sadness.

And Li Yihui met Xiao Jining's gaze, and said to him: "Your Majesty, before today, the grassroots did not know your true identity."

Xiao Jining was noncommittal: "Really?"

"He is indeed not the assassin who killed you." It was rare for Jing Yuan to say a word of defense, "Although they are very similar in stature and shape, Li Yihui's moves are too rigid, not as soft as that assassin."

"However—" Jing Yuan changed the subject, "Although he's not the mastermind assassin, he's not another assassin, so it's hard to say."

After all, there are quite a few people who rushed out with the mastermind assassin on Yugui Island.

"No." Li Yihui smiled wryly, shook his head and sighed, "I'm too old to act with them anymore."

Li Yi turned to look at his face, but he was only in his early thirties, but he told Xiao Jining and Jing Yuan that he was actually over forty.There are people in the world who don't look old. Although Xiao Jining was a little surprised, he was not shocked.

"When I competed with General Jing, the moves I used were all Dongping's martial arts. Not only me, but all the descendants of Dongping County living in the Western Regions, regardless of gender, almost everyone knows it." Li Yihui continued.

After hearing this, Jing Yuan asked Li Yi: "Do you all hate Da Xiao so much?"

Both men and women practice martial arts, which means that everyone is ready for the restoration of Dongping County - everyone is full of hatred, and they are devoted to this road with almost no end in sight and no end in sight, but they can see Is the road full of bones on the way really worth it?

It's just that Jing Yuan didn't ask the last question because there was only one answer.

Even if the answer is not worth it, there are still many people who will not hesitate, such as him; if there is no Xiao Jining, he will still be walking on such a road.

So Li Yi replied to Jing Yuan: "Hate, how can you not hate the hatred of destroying the country?"

"It's just that no matter how many things you do and how many people you kill, Dongping will never come back."

Li Yihui looked straight ahead, but his eyes didn't focus on one point, he just looked at a certain place vaguely, Xu Sheng said slowly: "After leaving the Western Regions, I went to Liangdu once."

"Not everyone in Dongping County migrated to the Western Regions back then, and some people stayed and lived in Liangdu today. Some of the people there, some of the older generation, still remember Dongping County, and those who came later thought they were born It’s from the Great Xiao, it’s from Liangdu.”

"It was rumored that after Dongping County was destroyed, Da Xiao's army set fire to everything in Dongping County."

Later, the history books about Dongping County were destroyed. According to the records about Dongping County, the descendants who fled to Dongping County can only see the appearance of Dongping County 200 years ago from their only remaining history books.

Everyone thought that Dongping County would become a desolate and desolate place if the Great Xiao cavalry stepped over Dongping County.

"But when I arrived in Liangdu, I found that it was similar to the scene in the picture scroll. There were lush green leaves and vermilion leaves, and there had never been any changes." Li Yi smiled back, but her eyes were a little moist, " It’s just that the people living there are different.”

The word "Dongping" in Dongping language means a lush forest, and the entire Dongping County was originally just a small county in the southwest mountains.

Things are different and people are different.

The change of dynasties is a very normal thing. Even if it is as powerful as the Great Xiao, it may be replaced by another dynasty one day—in the original book, it is Jingyuan, and now, it may be another country a hundred years later.

Li Yihui, who had seen Liangdu, did not understand what all the hard work he had done back then was for.

In the past 200 years of the Great Xiao, there has not been a foolish tyrant. The Great Xiao under the rule of Emperor Yunhong was strong and prosperous. It formed an alliance with the Great Liao and Dongying, and the border forces such as Turks and Tubo did not dare to invade. The struggle for imperial power made Da Xiao's current situation somewhat unstable, but the new emperor Yun Chu who reigned at last still managed Da Xiao well.

Li Yihui has always admired Emperor Yun Chu, especially after the chaos in Li Xing Palace - the crimes committed by the Seventh Prince and Princess Zhen, it would be difficult for any emperor to give them a good death.

But Emperor Yun Chu treated them with extra lenient.

Not only the Seventh Prince, but even the Fourth and Fifth Princes whose wolfish ambitions are clearly exposed, Emperor Yun Chu is extremely forgiving.

Not tolerance, but forgiveness.

The attitudes represented by the two are different.

After Emperor Yun Chu ascended the throne, all ceremonies were kept simple, he did not recruit the harem, and did not make extravagance and waste. Although there were no major reforms, he let the Seventh and Eighth Princes patrol the state capitals on their behalf, and they would never be soft-hearted when dealing with corrupt officials. Do more hesitation.

Li Yihui feels that with such an emperor in power, not only those who live in Liangdu and have the blood of Dongping County can live better, but the people of the entire Great Xiao will also have a stable life. They also live with hatred—after all, even if they can wipe out everyone in the Great Xiao royal family, so what?At that time, there will be no master in the Great Depression, and it will fall into troubled times. Tubo in the Western Regions will take the opportunity to attack, and Dongping County will not be able to return.

"Taking up the pole in troubled times can be called an uprising; in troubled times, it's just killing people." Li Yihui focused his eyes on Xiao Jining again, looked straight at him, and said firmly, "So there's no need to be overwhelmed. "

After listening to Li Yihui's words, Xiao Jining did not respond for a long time.

Jing Yuan lowered his eyes to look at Xiao Jining, and finally opened his lips and said: "Your words are not bad, but whether the matter is really as you said, I will have to wait for my careful investigation. Now, I can only invite Mr. Li to be a guest at my residence. some days."

"Okay." Li Yi smiled back, "My house is like this now, and I can't live in it anymore. I can only go to the General's Mansion in Beijing to bother me for a few days."

Jing Yuan turned slightly sideways, and made way for Li Yihui to get out of the door: "Then Mr. Li, please—"

Li Yihui didn't say anything more, got up and walked to the door, and was taken away by the Xuanjia Army.

After the people left, Jing Yuan called Xiao Jining and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to return to the palace."

"General Jing, where is Liangdu?" Xiao Jining came back to his senses, but his expression was still a little sad, "Have you been there?"

"I haven't been there." Jing Yuan said, "Feng Yusheng said that the weapons there were very famous 200 years ago, but I only know that the purple radish pancakes there are delicious now. When spring comes, I will take you there to eat."

"Okay." Xiao Jining also laughed when he heard the words, and he handed Jing Yuan his hand, motioning for Jing Yuan to pull him up from the chair.

Seeing this, Jing Yuan raised his eyebrows, but followed Xiao Jining to hold his wrist and gently pulled it in his direction, but the young man took advantage of the situation and threw himself into his arms, and finally leaned on his chest and said softly: " Li Yihui is my friend anyway, you have to treat him well."

Jing Yuan pursed his lips and said, "Don't worry, the treatment will not be worse than that of Jing Zhen."

"En." Xiao Jining raised his head, "Let's go back to the palace."

The first snowfall in the capital lasted for seven consecutive days, and it didn't clear up until seven days later.

However, the snow was not heavy, and it did not cause a snow disaster. The common people also said that this is Ruixue, and there will definitely be a bumper harvest in the coming year.

However, Xiao Jining can't predict what will happen in the coming year.

The most intuitive impact of this snowfall on Xiao Jining was that during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Fourth Prince was seriously injured due to the rape of the Forbidden Army, and the Fourth Prince, who was recuperating in the palace, stayed in the snow and hadn't left the palace yet.

When it was snowing, he said that the snowy road was difficult, and his injuries were not healed, so he didn't want to move, so he didn't want to go out of the palace; It's like being addicted to living in the palace.

But their brothers all grew up in the palace, and Xiao Jining had lived both inside and outside the palace. To tell the truth, he still felt that living outside the palace was the most comfortable. Why did the Fourth Prince fall in love at this time? Life in the palace?

Xiao Jining felt that the fourth prince's long stay in the palace and refused to leave must be tricky, since the fourth prince said that it was not easy to walk in the melting snow, Xiao Jining ordered him to leave the palace immediately after the snow melted, and he was not allowed to stay in the palace.

Except for the matter of the Fourth Prince, the winter this year has been relatively peaceful, with no major incidents happening. Shujieyu Ding Shuxue, who was keen to "seduce" Xiao Jining before, after trying several times and being reprimanded by Tan Qingxuan, saw that Xiao Jining seemed to be treating her He really didn't have any ideas, so he stopped making trouble with Xiao Jining as if he had completely given up.

She also discovered that Xiao Jining's harem is completely different from other emperors' harems. There are only four people in the entire harem, which can barely make up a table of mahjong. Among them, the empress and concubine compete in separate courts, but they don't form cliques. There are only two people there. fight without involving others.If she really wanted to fight Gongdou, she could only trouble Qiao Xi.But Qiao Xi always looks like a good man who is as calm as a chrysanthemum, and the fight is boring.

Ding Shuxue didn't even know why this kind of person entered the palace.

The most important thing is that if you want to live well in Xiao Jining's harem, it has nothing to do with the emperor's favor, because the emperor only enters the palace of the noble concubine and the empress.

And Ding Shuxue also began to pretend to be good in order to get more shares and red envelopes before the New Year. She didn't oppose Ruan Jiaren, but also listened to Tan Qingxuan's words and flattered both sides.

She was so well-behaved that finally, in mid-November, the Empress Dowager Chun became ill.
