Ning Chen Ling Xiao

The next day Chu Yifeng was much better. Although his expression was still sad, he would at least have a good meal. Ling Xiao knew that he was uncomfortable and didn't want to say anything. This kind of thing was the only thing he couldn't bear for Chu Yifeng. He could only rely on time Smooth it out slowly.

Chu Yifeng and Fu Jieqin both thought that the prince would let him go back after reading the contract signed with Xiongnu Shanyu. Although Ling Xiao didn't say it, he was not so optimistic. According to the prince's temperament, it would be wrong not to ascend the throne. He will rest assured that Chu Yifeng will return to court.

This is a generation in which the king makes his ministers die and the ministers have to die, even if the minister is the son of the army, Ling Xiao will not be stupid to break this cognition just because of a little humiliation, even if this cognition is wrong.

Silence does not mean acceptance, and non-resistance does not mean willingness to surrender.

Ling Xiao drew up a note for the prince in the account, and spoke earnestly. First, he stated the important role played by the King of England in this peace talk, and then expressed the grief of His Royal Highness these days, and finally begged the prince to let him go as soon as possible. They return to court.

After writing the booklet, Ling Xiao took the secret letter from his own spies in the imperial city. Shi Pei has already opened up all the joints. He only waits for Ling Xiao to say a word. At that time, Marquis Wu'an will invite the soldiers in the north, and Chu Yifeng will be sealed. Zheng Yipin Jian Guozunsheng County King, when the crown prince ascends the throne, Chu Yifeng will be the first Jian Guozunsheng Prince.

Ling Xiao took the secret letter and gently threw it into the charcoal basin, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, it must have been lively in the early court, Marquis Wu An personally invited him to seal it, and he was sure that 12 people in the court would second it, and the crown prince could reject it what?Of course he can, but he dare not, he can prevent the army from returning to the court, there is barely a reason to guard against the Huns, but he can't refute the courtiers' awarding meritorious soldiers, otherwise the soldiers in the north will do something out of anger, Ling Xiao can Can't control it.

And at this time, the peace talks had already spread to the imperial city, and the reason why the crown prince ordered the northern army to prevent the Huns from invading would gradually become untenable. Ling Xiao just wanted to let the crown prince know that he couldn't move Chu Yifeng now!

In order to put down Zhang Ji's rebel army, Ling Xiao and Chu Yifeng rolled back with scars all over their bodies. Since then, they have suppressed King Hui Chu Yijin until he could not stand up straight. Ling Xiao also wanted the prince to let the courtiers know that now he can still suppress the prince straight Don't get up, even if he is the emperor soon.

Ling Xiao used to be always afraid that he would lose control of the situation after the crown prince ascended the throne, but now he is not afraid. As the power in his hands grows, Ling Xiao is less and less worried.

Ling Xiao has always been a person who must take revenge, not to mention that the prince bullied Chu Yifeng this time, Ling Xiao sneered, very well, didn't the prince not let them go back to court?Alright, then I won't go back. How can the title of the first-rank Jian Guo Zun Sheng Prince be enough?The fief of Prince Jian Guozunsheng is not bad. Since the crown prince cares so much about the north, he should seal this land to Chu Yifeng.

Ling Xiao wrote a secret letter, telling Shi Pei to be careful in everything, and please be sure to take down the fiefdom in the north when sealing it.

Ling Xiao ordered Qin Long to enter the account, and handed over the secret letter to him for him to seal. Ling Xiao always asked Qin Long to read the secret letter sent to the imperial city just in case, Qin Long changed his face after reading it briefly , dumbly said: "Master... so, is it..."

"Don't worry, if I dare to ask for it, I already expected that he will give it." Ling Xiao chuckled, didn't the prince always use the method of emphasizing the importance of the north to trap Chu Yifeng and prevent him from returning to the court?Well, he won’t go back yet, he didn’t ask Chu Yifeng to seal the land of fish and rice in the south, but as long as this place is bitter and cold, he has to hold the 10,000+ army to garrison the Xiongnu fortress, and he wants to make the prince think of the north when he ascends the throne. When you come, you will worry, you will feel sick, and you will not be able to sleep!

Qin Long also knew his master's temperament, so he stopped persuading him, sealed the secret envelope and took it out in front of Ling Xiao.

Wuji came to look for Ling Xiao at Xushi in the evening, and it was interesting to deliberately pick Chu Yifeng to come when he was on patrol. Ling Xiao poured tea for Wuji himself: "General Wu, what do you want to tell me?"

Wu Ji lowered his head and sipped his tea slowly, and said for a long while, "Young Master... the sergeants have heard about the Crown Prince's refusal to allow us to return to court these days, and they are all... somewhat resentful."

"The prince also has considerations for the prince." Ling Xiao said indifferently, "General Wu must understand the truth about the loyalty of the emperor."

Wu Ji laughed at himself: "Jun? You have already gone, and we didn't even have a head. Now this... is not a gentleman if he hasn't ascended the throne for a day."

Ling Xiao raised his phoenix eyes slightly, put down the teacup and said, "General Wu, please be careful, even if the enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, the prince is still a prince."

"Young Master, I won't play around with you anymore." Wuji also knows Ling Xiao's temperament, don't expect him to tell you the truth if you don't show some sincerity first, Wuji sighed and lowered his voice Said, "Little Lord, you can see that too, right? The prince has never looked down on our military generals. Those who are capable under his command, those who have been supported by him are all confucians, right? That group of people are better than us. We didn't know how many words he scolded us around the corner, and he didn't even think about who brought down the world, relying on the civil servant's polite bullshit? Pooh!"

Wu Ji looked at Ling Xiao's expression, and continued: "Just take His Royal Highness the King of England, because the King of England liked martial arts but not literature since he was a child..."

"General Wu!" Ling Xiao said coldly, "If the general came to discuss with me the rights and wrongs of His Royal Highness, please come back."

Wu Ji knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and he also knew that Ling Xiao never discussed anything about Chu Yifeng with anyone. The ambiguity between the two of them also came from the army. Don't care, little duke, what I mean is...now that we have 10,000+ sergeants under our command, instead of waiting for the crown prince to divide our military power little by little after he ascends the throne, it's better to..."

Wuji said that Ling Xiao hadn't thought about it. Now they can dispatch 12 sergeants. With Zhu Yu's relationship, they will borrow some soldiers from Qianghu, and then let Wei Zhengfu in the imperial city take over. ...

Ling Xiao closed his eyes. In the past, Ling Xiao thought it was funny to see other people holding power and not being satisfied, but now he also knows that the more power he has, the less he will be satisfied. This is a man's natural desire to conquer.

Ling Xiao sighed and said, "I pretended that I didn't hear what General Wu said today. General Wu's house is also a meritorious service of the times. Now that the world has been settled, why start a war?"

Wuji paused, let out a long breath, got up and said: "Since the young master has no such intention, then it's all in vain for me to worry about it. The young master has something else to do, so I'll go first."

Ling Xiao fixedly looked at Wuji's back, and said with emotion: "I appreciate General Wu's kindness, but nothing in the world can escape the word 'reason'. If General Wu is still willing to help me on the day when the name is justified, then I will definitely repay the general a thousand times to thank you for today's kindness."

Seeing Wuji's head turned to one side, Ling Xiao sighed in a low voice: "Before I came to the north, I asked for the title of the King of England. I didn't inform the general beforehand, but the general in the palace was not afraid of offending the prince and resolutely seconded it. This kindness and affection Ling Xiao has always Keep it in mind, if one day something big happens, Ling Xiao will definitely not forget the general's help all the way."

Wuji paused, and Ling Xiao's words touched his heart. It's not the most sad thing that he can't make achievements as a general. The saddest thing is that no one appreciates him, and his blood has nowhere to flow. Wu Ji nodded, and said in a low voice: "I didn't think much about it that day, as military commanders, it's normal to feel sorry for each other, not to mention that I have shed blood on the battlefield with His Highness the King of England... I wrote down what the young master said today. , if one day I will be needed, the young duke can just order me."

After Wuji left, Ling Xiao stared at the candles in the tent in a daze. At this time, Wuji came to surrender, and he was not happy. It doesn't matter if people criticize him, Chu Yifeng has never done a single wrong thing in his life, and Ling Xiao refuses to give Chu Yifeng a bad name for usurping the throne in the history books.

It is true that the prince's words and deeds have always displeased the generals. The old emperor did not rely on a few counselors to practice his words when he brought down the country. Baiye's life has been set, the prince is not good at martial arts, and he doesn't have much affection for the generals. More importantly, the prince wants to take down the military power of the generals. He can tell from the fact that he doesn't wait to see Chu Yifeng. Listen, when he scolds Chu Yifeng, he usually What are you scolding?A reckless man, a foolish general, and empty fists.

It is not common for the prince to teach his son a lesson, but the military generals will inevitably have a change of heart after hearing this. Are you teaching your son a lesson or scolding us?Now that the old emperor has passed away, it is not only Ling Xiao and Chu Yifeng who have lost their backing, but also the military generals who hold the military power. Ling Xiao sneered, having a common enemy is a friend, and he has always been proficient at playing this trick.

The tent door opened, and seeing Chu Yifeng smile, Ling Xiao got up and took off his coat for him, and said with a smile, "Is it cold? Look at this cold face..."

Chu Yifeng sat down with Ling Xiao, and followed Ling Xiao's hand to take off his clothes, leaving only the inner garment. Ling Xiao smiled when he saw it, and slapped Chu Yifeng's side face and teased: "Sneaking in mine again."

Chu Yifeng also smiled, and lowered his head to touch the dark lines on the cuffs of his inner jacket. Ling Xiao felt a little more relaxed. Today, when he teased him, he would laugh a little bit, which was much better than the situation a few days ago. , Ling Xiao poured water to let Chu Yifeng soak his feet, everything was packed and Ling Xiao got up, Chu Yifeng quickly pulled Ling Xiao's cuff: "What are you doing?"

Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment, smiled and rubbed Chu Yifeng's hair: "I'll go outside and bring in the tea, and I'll simmer it on the small stove for a while, so you can drink hot water when you wake up in the middle of the night."

It was warm in their tent, and Chu Yifeng would often be thirsty in the middle of the night, so Chu Yifeng nodded, and watched Ling Xiao turn around and walk behind the screen, and watched him come back with tea, Ling Xiao felt pain in his heart when he saw him Panicked, this child started to cling to him a few days ago, Chu Yifeng also loved to be close to him before but not like this, now it seems like he is afraid that he will run away if he doesn't pay attention.

Ling Xiao understood Chu Yifeng's psychology, but it was actually very simple. The death of the old emperor made Chu Yifeng uneasy, and those who loved him no matter how much they loved him would leave. Chu Yifeng lost his close relative for the first time, and he instinctively sought support.

Ling Xiao knew that Chu Yifeng was feeling uncomfortable, so he calmly indulged his unconscious acting like a baby. All of Chu Yifeng's actions were so simple and easy to understand, Ling Xiao would indulge him.

Ling Xiao also took off his coat and collapsed, Chu Yifeng kicked Mrs. Tang to Ling Xiao's feet, and automatically leaned into Ling Xiao's arms, Ling Xiao smiled: "Cold?"

"It's not cold." Chu Yifeng shook his head, Ling Xiao gently stroked Chu Yifeng's back, thought for a while and said, "What do you want to eat tomorrow? You've always lost your appetite recently, why don't you eat some hawthorn?"

Chu Yifeng nodded: "Anything is fine, everything you cook is delicious." Ling Xiao smiled, hugged Chu Yifeng to make him lie down more comfortably, and chuckled: "You are so obedient..." Chu Yifeng smiled when he heard this, as if It's like getting a great reward.

Looking at Chu Yifeng's appearance, Ling Xiao couldn't help but feel distressed. Maybe Chu Yifeng didn't even notice that he was inadvertently trying to please Ling Xiao. Like a small animal, after losing a favor, he will unconsciously try to please Ling Xiao and still treat him People who are good at themselves are afraid of losing and yearn for warmth.

Ling Xiao won't say much. When Chu Yifeng grows up, the sadness of his relatives' departure will gradually heal. Now he will only pamper his little general more tenderly, comfort his wounds, and take care of his wounds. sad.
