"Father, what's the matter with you?" Xie Qian seemed a little unbelievable, and his voice trembled a little under careful listening.

He understands what a difficult feeling this is, and Xie Wuya, as the commander in chief of the northern border, has been a soldier all his life, and his invincible cultivation is his pride and backbone.

Xie Wuya's face became silent, half of his body was buried in the shadows, but he was silent for a moment, but suddenly raised his eyes and smiled at Xie Qian, his whole body looked surprisingly calm.

He just said: "Small things, don't tell your concubine mother and your sister."

Xie Qian's eyes moved, he took a deep breath, and suppressed his emotions, of course he would not tell them about this to make them worry for nothing, so he replied: "I know, father, don't worry."

Afterwards, the two of them had nothing to say, Xie Qian knew that Xie Wuya seemed to be fine, so he must feel uncomfortable in his heart, probably because he didn't want to talk about it with him in detail.

No wonder Xie Wuya would prevent him from coming to the northern border before, and it is estimated that Xie Wuya also ranked him among the people who don't need to know about it; moreover, it's no wonder the guard said that he was in the commander's mansion all day today, and Uncle Meng was the last It was so unnatural to start reacting.

But Xie Wuya's disguise is actually very good, so that people can't see anything unusual, if Xie Qian had not had the same experience in his previous life, and he was very careful about Xie Wuya, he probably wouldn't be able to see it.

But at this moment, he needs to know all about this matter, so that he can find a solution in the future.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Meng Linyuan.

Meng Linyuan couldn't help taking a step back when he saw him, and looked at Xie Wuya with some embarrassment, then he gritted his teeth and said the matter with his head held high: "My lord, it's not that the commander-in-chief didn't tell you, it's true that we didn't I know what's going on, that day the commander-in-chief went to the front line to fight against Yan Yi, and at the end of the battle, he felt powerless. If it wasn't for that, we would definitely beat Yan Yi's grandson to the bum! Where is our grandson from our commander-in-chief? opponent……"

When he scolded here, he found that no one was complaining, and there was still a weird silence in the air. He touched his nose, so he had to continue the topic silently: "Anyway, after returning to the camp, the commander-in-chief couldn't hold on and fell limp. In the tent, we called the military doctor to look at it, and the military doctor couldn’t see anything wrong, it’s just that he lost his spiritual power for no reason.”

This fact is strange, Xie Qian couldn't get any clue after listening to it like this. He glanced at Xie Wuya and found that Xie Wuya didn't have anything to add to this, which means that he should have checked everything that should be checked secretly, but he didn't Find out what's the problem.

Xie Qian inexplicably felt flustered for no reason, as if he couldn't find the root cause and couldn't implement it.

But he couldn't show it, so he calmed himself down and asked again: "How many people know about this?"

Meng Linyuan replied: "The commander-in-chief insisted on being in the tent before he acted strangely. At that time, I was the only one in the tent. Later, he hired a military doctor, but the man was very strict and told not to speak out, so this matter At present, only the three of us know, and now you are added, Shizi."

Xie Qian nodded upon hearing this.

Then he found a chair and sat down, as if he couldn't accept this.

This happened quickly and violently. Although Xie Qian was prepared for the Chiling Mansion when the war broke out in the northern border, when this thing really happened suddenly, he felt a little out of breath, as if Unknowingly, the sky above the Chiling Mansion had already begun to be covered by dark clouds.

But at this time, there was absolutely no reason for Xie Wuya to turn around to comfort him, so Xie Qian secretly breathed out, and straightened his spine thoroughly.

Xie Qianfu stood up again and walked in front of Xie Wuya, smiled at Xie Wuya, looking very relaxed: "It's okay, father, maybe it's a temporary illness, maybe it will be fine after a while, You should have a good rest recently, Uncle Meng and the others are still here in the north."

But he said so on the lips, but he said in his heart, there is me in the north.

But he won't say it like this, he can probably understand Xie Wuya's thoughts, if the northern border can be safely and smoothly transitioned to his hands, then Xie Wuya will be fine; but now Xie Wuya has an accident, feeling It's as if Xie Qian was forced to grow up ahead of schedule and put the burden of the northern border on his shoulders.

Little did he know that Xie Qian had already grown up in a world he didn't know.

Xie Qian didn't stay for long that night, nor did he stay in the Shuai's mansion, but went back to the post to rest.

This was his first night in the north this year, the night when he learned about Xie Wuya's accident, and the night without Chu Lingyue by his side.

He originally thought that he would not be able to fall asleep, but he didn't expect to sleep well, and he fell asleep after holding the crab root for a while.

It's just that he woke up very early, and he woke up before Mao.

But when he woke up, he met the blue cat's eyes of the crab lotus at a glance. Xie Qian was taken aback. , don't you sleep?"

The crab lotus eyes remained motionless, and then let out a very soulless 'meow'.

Xie Qian has long been used to it like this, and he doesn't force anything, he thinks, no matter what it is, as long as it is by his side, it will always be better, at least at a moment like now, he can be with the crab Lotus root talks so that it doesn't look like it's lost its mind when it talks to itself.

Xie Qian squeezed the soft meat pad of the crab root, and spoke softly in the stillness of the night, as if he was afraid of disturbing the tranquility of the night.

"I haven't been to the northern border for a long time. Now it seems that nothing has changed, but it feels that it has changed a lot."

"Father Wang is over 25 years old this year, and now he has guarded the border for [-] years. Today I saw white hair on his head."

"The same goes for the concubine mother. I have never seen the concubine mother galloping on the battlefield, but sometimes an adult in the audience mentioned that she must have amazed the thirteen cities in the northern border with her sword flower back then."

"My sister doesn't look as free and easy as before, as if she is always troubled. I thought she would be able to run amok for the rest of her life."

"...and Chu Lingyue, he has also changed a lot, but I can't tell whether this change is good or bad..."

Xie Qian babbled a lot with Xie Ou, but even when he was so empty, he only talked about the facts, not about his hopes and opinions, let alone his sincerity, he felt that there were some things he wanted to say Yes, but some words are not suitable for hanging on the lips.

Xie lotus squatted quietly in his arms, his eyes glowed faintly, and he didn't know if he could understand.

He said that he stopped and thought for a while, and before he knew it, it was dawn.

Zhong Shanxiu came to knock on his door early in the morning and said that the envoys who were going to set up tents and peace talks on the border today were ready to go, and the Chiling commander's mansion also sent General Meng Linyuan to lead troops to guard him.

Xie Qian nodded when he heard the words, and soon followed Zhong Shanxiu to the gate of the post station.

In the eyes of everyone, Xie Wuya is busy with military affairs, so it is natural for him not to show up in person, but now that he sent his confidant, General Meng, to come, it is enough attention.

Meng Linyuan rode on the big horse and glanced at Xie Qian from a distance, but he didn't show too much attention. He only greeted Chen Xinyun, the leader of the team.

On the way, Zhong Shanxiu and Xie Qian were in a carriage. Zhong Shanxiu said: "This time Yan Yi is coming so aggressively, the negotiations may not have any results."

Hearing what he said, Xie Qian couldn't help curling his lips: "Not necessarily."

"What?" Zhong Shanxiu looked at him with a smile, "Could it be that the son of the world has a backup?"

"You can't be called a follower," Xie Qian said. "Today's talk, it mainly depends on who the talker is."

"Although Louyue is small, there is one advantage. The morale of the army has always been as stable as a mountain. Now that Yan Yi is in charge of Louyue Border Gate, I am afraid that no one will disobey him. As for his two elder brothers, Yan Yi will not let them intervene." .”

Xie Qian smiled: "The royal family of Lou Yue has more than these three princes."

Xie Qian stopped, because he was not sure about the rest, but Zhong Shanxiu immediately understood.

When they arrived at the place, a splendid tent had been set up in the middle of the endless wilderness, and the armies of both sides stood at both ends, as if they were about to meet each other if they were not careful.

However, the two countries do not fight each other, this is the principle that the whole world abides by, and no one will openly fight at this juncture.

Seeing this situation after Xie Qian got off the car, he knew that the people from Lou Yueguo had probably arrived.

But Xie Qian's status was there anyway, so he followed Chen Xinyun into the tent.

The moment the curtain was lifted, Xie Qian looked at the other party, and couldn't help showing a slight smile.

Chen Xinyun was the first to say hello: "Chen Xinyun of the Imperial Academy of Chu, I have met the fourth princess of your country."

At this time, Asuruo was at the head of the other party's mission, so he could tell at a glance who had the final say in this negotiation.

She stood up when she heard the words, first returned the salute to Chen Xinyun, then looked at Xie Qian, and smiled slightly: "It's been a long time since I saw you, the son of the world has become more handsome and stable."

Xie Qian nodded: "Your Highness, the princess, thank you."

Those who are standing here don't know that Asuruo once courted the Yang Palace and had nowhere to go, so seeing them talking peacefully now, everyone thought it was an undercurrent.

Of course, Xie Qian and Asuruo also knew that the current situation was not suitable for saying anything, so they didn't communicate any more, and each returned to their seats.

After that, the two parties did not delay any further, and quickly got to the point. Da Chu meant to stop the war and pay tribute, and asked Lou Yue to apologize for breaking the contract rashly and starting the war; but Lou Yue meant to refuse this reason, and asked Da Chu to open the North border trade rights.

The two sides insisted on their own words and neither would give in. In the end, of course, there was no agreement, and the two parties broke up unhappy.

However, it is true that peace talks are seldom concluded at one go. The two parties agreed to talk after three days, and at this time they both stopped.

After the talk, Xie Qian followed the mission back to Yingyang City, and finally went back to the house after discussing with all the adults, and then went out from the back street of the post station through the window.

He asked Meng Linyuan earlier to borrow the pass order from Yingyang City, and went all the way to the outside of the city unimpeded, until a Jinghu prescription near today's peace talks.

At this time, the moon is in the middle of the sky, and only the bright lake in the vast desert reflects the moonlight, but the beauty is beautiful, but it adds a touch of desolation.

Asuruo was standing by the mirror lake at this time, letting the night wind blow up her skirt, her eyes were looking at something, the pair of eyes that looked very sly and smart in Changfujing that day seemed to be stained with a layer of fatigue .

When she heard Xie Qian's footsteps, she didn't turn her head back, and only said softly, "I understand that troubled times hurt the people, but sometimes I look at the wind and sand in Louyue, and then think about the blooming flowers in Changfujing, and I still can't help but think, Why can’t Da Chu’s splendid mountains and rivers belong to me, Lou Yue?”

Xie Qian was silent for a moment, but his thoughts followed closely, but he also turned around. Everyone understands the reason why a country is formed by gathering people for the country. There is no need for him to talk about it seriously with Asuruo, so he just smiled and said : "Then you Louyue's rare treasures, pearls and white jade from the South China Sea Islands...why don't you take them all out and share them equally? Otherwise, you just want to eat alone."

Asuruo laughed when she heard this, she turned around, raised her eyebrows at Xie Qian, and she didn't look so heavy: "You came alone?"

"if not."

"Aren't you afraid that I'll set you up? The heir of the Chiling Mansion must be very important in this battle."

Xie Qian found a mound of dirt beside him and sat down, with a calm expression on his face: "I'm not that vulnerable."

"Haha, I didn't expect you to be quite confident." Asuruo also went to sit down, and after saying this, his brows and eyes darkened again, "I said that if you come to Louyue, I will welcome you ten miles away as a guest. , now it seems that I broke my promise."

"Hey, you got it, you haven't reached Louyue yet, the border is unknown, okay?" Asuruo's temperament is a bit like Xie Miao sometimes, and Xie Qian and her haven't met much. Once, but the two got along inexplicably naturally, "Besides, I don't know how to comfort people. Don't win my sympathy, or we will only be embarrassed together."

"Who are you?" Asuruo glanced at him, and then asked teasingly, "By the way, I heard that you married that Chu Yanshu, so now you come to meet me privately now, if he finds out Come on, don’t be crazy.”

"Pay attention to the words, thank you."

"It's almost the same." Asuruo said, "Anyway, he must feel the same."

Xie Qian glanced at her: "You know him well?"

Asuruo shrugged: "I don't really understand, but who can't see his madness?"

"Don't say that, sometimes he has a sharp personality, but not all the time, most of the time he is still very reasonable."

Asuruo looked at him inexplicably, as if saying 'Are you okay' in his eyes.

Sure enough, Asuruo spoke the next moment: "Come on, if he knew about this, he wouldn't tear me apart with his eyes, but I like to touch tigers' butts, and he yelled at me back then, he was so mad He's the best."

Xie Qian was almost speechless, but he suddenly felt that something was wrong. When Asuruo left Beijing, he and Chu Lingyue were still having conflicts. Why now, in her eyes, he and Chu Lingyue seem to have deep feelings for each other? Is it okay?

Thinking of this, he asked, "Why are you so sure that he will be angry?"

"Want to show your affection to me?" Asuruo said so, but still said it out of face, "He likes you so much, it feels like he wants to put you in his heart, and he will eat like crazy Vinegar or something is simply normal, okay?"
