lonely king

Yue Ming couldn't even handle it that night, what Baili Nian said made him too anxious, so he went to Qi Tea Garden overnight.And Baili Nian just put away his paintbrush, and after talking with Yue Wei, he has been painting until now, he drew more than a dozen pictures, and threw them all away.

Mo Yan knew that Baili Nian was in a bad mood today, but he couldn't figure out why.

When Yue Ji entered the door, Baili Nian was standing in front of the desk, throwing the used rice paper on the corner of the table, his complexion remained unchanged except for a little paleness, and Yue Ji did not see that Bai Li Nian was in a bad mood good.

"Mr. Baili, can this prince bother you?"

Seeing Yue Ji enter the door, Baili Nian nodded, "Caomin has seen the young master,"

"Mr. Baili, don't be too polite. I'm being rude to disturb you at such a late hour."

The more he approached the desk, he was full of thoughts, but he didn't find the painting on the corner of the table by Baili, and he couldn't suppress the anxious look on his face, "Mr. Baili, I came so late, but I actually wanted to ask Mr. , my father king he..."

Baili Nian knew what Yue Ming was thinking, and also understood his anxiety.

"King Xizhao is the lord of Xizhao Kingdom, but now he is in Nanming's Hengyuan. It is really wrong. Nanming Kingdom has been very strict with your father and king these years, and you know this very well."

"In the past six years, this prince has petitioned the king of Nanming countless times, hoping to bring his father back to the country, but the king of Nanming is suspicious by nature, and he won't even let me meet, let alone bring my father back to the country! Sir, tell this prince that this prince does not know that his father is in such a situation!"

Yue Ming clenched his fist and thumped the wooden table violently. The table shook a few times, and the ink almost splashed onto Baili Nian's white gauze sleeves.

Baili Nian raised his eyes lightly, feeling deeply moved in his heart, but his face was indifferent, like the surface of a calm lake.

"The words that King Xizhao asked me to bring to the young master, I have already sent them. King Xizhao misses his homeland and wants to return to his country, but with King Nanming's temperament, I am afraid he will never send King Xizhao back to his country."

"You are not even allowed to meet face to face for the last time, and of course you will not let my royal father go back to the country!"

Yue Ming clenched his fists. He knew this matter well. In order to contain and ensure that Xizhao would not cause trouble, Nanming Wang Gongsunzhi would definitely detain his father. He knew this and would pay tribute every year. , I just thought that my father in the Nanming Palace would be better off, but I didn't expect such a result!

He suddenly turned his head to look at Baili Nian, Bai Lian's expression did not change at all, but Yue Yan remembered something that Baili Nian said today.

"Mr. Baili mentioned the situation of Nanming Kingdom today. General Cao of Nanming Kingdom has passed away?" Yue Wei asked Baili Nian.

Baili Nian nodded, "It is true that he has passed away. General Cao was a powerful general in Nanming. After the founding of Nanming, he was not favored by Gongsun Zhi. General Cao's family produced more than a dozen generals. How can we not be suspicious, now that General Cao has passed away and the Cao family is in decline, the generals of the Nanming Kingdom may not be able to sustain themselves."

"It is indeed a problem that the generals can't support themselves, but Nanming's country is rich and the people are safe, so it can be underestimated."

Yue Wei pursed his thin lips slightly. It was indeed a good thing for Xi Zhao to lose General Cao and the generals of the Cao family. If the two countries really fought each other that day, at least Xi Zhao would not suffer too much.

Baili Nian lowered his eyes slightly, "Only when the country is stable can the country be rich and the people safe. If a rich country does not have a strong army to protect the country, it will still be vulnerable. The young master has seen a strong army fight, but you have seen silk, satin, gold, silver and jewelry battles." Is it? Without a strong army, no matter how rich a country is, it will fill the treasury of other countries.”

Only money does not have a strong army, and no matter how rich the country is, it cannot defend against the enemy.

Thinking about Baili Nian's words, Yue Wei felt a bit of an epiphany, and nodded, "At first glance, the Nanming Kingdom seems to be the country with the largest landmass and the richest land in the world, but Gongsun Zhizhong used civil servants to abandon military generals, and Nanming Kingdom is no longer The previous powerful country with strong soldiers and horses can only be regarded as a rich country."

"A rich country can't defend against the enemy, if the young master works hard, he won't lose a chance." Baili Nian murmured.

Yue Ming turned his head to look at Baili Nian. He looked at the white-clothed man in front of him. His eyes were calm, but it was difficult to see his eyes. This man's insights and understanding of the world situation made him He was dumbfounded.

"Mr. Baili's words are very reasonable, but..." Yue Ming raised his eyes, "I just don't know why Mr. Baili is making suggestions for this prince?"

Baili Nian lowered his eyes. Although Yue Ming was young and energetic, he was not reckless. Although he was not as suspicious as Gongsun Zhi, he still kept vigilance. If he was a monarch, Yue Ying would indeed be a good monarch.

"Dedicate a small plan to the Ming Lord. Today, I will make a plan for the young master. If the young master is the master of a powerful country in the future, I just hope that the young master can still remember today."

"Besides, it's not a bad thing to rectify the army horses and train the soldiers to wait for the opportunity." Baili Nian said.

He raised his eyes to look at Yue Ming, his eyes were calm, his eyes were calm, Yue Ming couldn't see his emotions, but he could guess what Bai Li Nian meant, Bai Li Nian just felt that Xi Zhao had the potential to become a powerful country Potential, just throw an olive branch first.

Yue Ming pursed his lips and laughed, the world's scheming people are very weird, Yue Ming didn't think much about it, he smiled and patted Baili Nian on the shoulder.

"This prince will never forget Mr. Baili's words today!"

Baili Nian nodded slightly, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

There are also smile lines on the corners of Yue Ming's mouth. In fact, deep in his heart, he has already had a seed to compete with Nan Ming, but he always feels that the time is too late. Now that Baili Nian is coming, his proposal is reversed. It became an opportunity, if Yue Ming worked harder to train his troops, sooner or later he would capture Nanming and rescue his father!

Baili Yan looked at Yue Ming's expression, he knew the ambition and indignation in his heart, and it was not in vain for Jin Feng to send him to Xizhao.

Yue Ming made up his mind and went back to the dormitory. The training of soldiers seemed to be imminent, and he didn't want to send it for a moment.

Baili Nian stood alone under the window of the west room of Qichayuan. This place is not as high as Wangshu Pavilion, and he cannot see beyond the palace. This is the first night he left Qiangzhu. Knowing that Baili Nian was in Xizhao Palace, he didn't know what kind of trouble happened.

However, on the second day, Baili Nian saw this anxious monkey.

Saijian's Chiteng Liema rushed into the city of Xizhao King. He searched for two days at the border between Qiangzhao and Xizhao, but he didn't see Baili Nian. The grasslands of Qiangzhao are vast Well, it's really not easy to hide a person, this vast grassland can't hide people, unless Baili Nian produces Qiang Zhu.

The grassland where Baili Nian disappeared was next to Xizhao Kingdom. Although Sai Jian was reckless and rough, he was not as stupid as Mo Yan thought.

Sai Jian took only one guard, Wei Yu, and rode his red horse, directly into the city of King Xizhao.

The news reached Baili Nian early in the morning. People like Sai Jian never restrain themselves, and they went on a rampage when they entered the city of King Xizhao.

"Are you sure it's Sai Jian?" Baili Nian asked Mo Yan.

"It's the lord. The subordinates saw it clearly. He rode his red horse and directly broke into King Xizhao's city. The horse even kicked and injured the city gate guards. How insolent."

Mo Yan frowned. He didn't like this Sai Jian, who was reckless and rude, especially when he was chasing after the Lord. The Lord intended to come to Xizhao Kingdom. Take it to Qiangzhao country, why did the lord only come to Xizhao now.

"Understood, go and get me a veiled hat." Baili Nian said, this Sai Jian finally came after him.

Mo Yan was a little puzzled, "Master, are you going out?"

"Since the person has come, let's go back to Qiangzhu."

"To Qiangzhu?" Mo Yan was even more puzzled.

He really didn't know why Baili Nian stayed in the Qiangzhu Kingdom. Saijian's royal palaces were all newly built low-level palaces. Words are reckless and rude, and it is useless to talk about Qiang Zhu's struggle with the world.

"My lord, why didn't you stay in Xizhao? Isn't our original intention of coming to the west region to come to Xizhao?"

"What should be said to Young Master Xizhao has already been said, and staying here is also an extra problem."

Baili Nian stood up, he stretched out his hand to Mo Yan, and Mo Yan immediately put the veiled hat on Baili Nian's hand, and put the veil on his head, the white gauze at the brim of the hat completely covered Baili Nian's face , with only a red jade crown on his head exposed, and white clothes Ran Ran, Baili Nian stepped out of the chess tea garden.

……

Xizhao Wangcheng, street tea house.

Baili twisted the carriage and saw Sai Jian who was noisy on the street. Sai Jian entered the king's city on a rampage, and the guards in the city couldn't stop him alone.

A person with a reckless temperament but a strong martial arts is really a headache.

Sai Jian also saw Baili Nian, he raised his eyes abruptly, as if a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, he wanted to tighten the reins and move forward quickly, but he saw the people around Baili Nian.

That man is Yue Ji, the young master of Xizhao, and Sai Jian recognizes Yue Ji, who is on the border with Xizhao.

"Twister!"

Sai Jian jumped off the Chiteng Lie horse, and flew to Baili Nian's side on tiptoe. He grabbed Baili Nian's wrist and glared at Yue Ming angrily.

Saijian established his own country, and has always been at odds with other countries, especially Xizhao, which borders on the border. Although Xizhao was a subsidiary country of Nanming, at that time, one of the princes was a powerful country, and they suppressed Qiang, who was still a small country. Saijian naturally treated Xizhao The young master is resentful.

"Nian'er, why did you come to Xizhao here? Didn't I ask you to stay by my side?" Sai Jian frowned at Baili Nian.

Baili Nian's wrist hurt a little from Sai Jian's grip, but he couldn't break free. He glanced at Sai Jian, with a flash of displeasure in his eyes, "Let go first, Your Majesty."

"I won't let you go," Sai Jian looked at Yue Ming again, his expression was even worse, his beard blowing and his eyes staring, "Why is Nian'er with this kid?"

Baili Nian sighed in his heart, Yue Yan was the young master of Xizhao, how could he be the one who insulted Sai Jian with his mouth shut, but only Sai Jian could be so reckless and not afraid of causing trouble.

"King Qiang Zhuo, please pay attention to your words!" Yue Ming's subordinates really couldn't listen anymore.

Yue Wei's expression was also not good, but he was measured and didn't tangle with Sai Jian, but he turned his eyes to look at Baili Nian with a regretful and puzzled expression.

"Is Mr. Baili really a guest of the Qiang Dynasty?"
