"Really? Then tell me, why are you afraid of me?" Nan Wenqing said with a straight face.

"Chen..." Xia Yi clenched his fists, "I'm afraid of your majesty, I don't like you anymore."

Nan Wenqing squinted at Xia Yi—his head buried, his voice trembling.

"You__" the little emperor shook his head, patted him on the shoulder, and a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I really can't do anything about you."

Nan Wenqing waved her fan, let go of her hand and retreated to the dragon chair.

"Didn't Ayao tell you?"

"I'm not mad at you, I'm just mad at myself."

"Yi, I just... don't want anyone to die in vain. Whether it's me or you, there are too many dead souls in our hands."

Nan Wenqing sighed, leaning on the dragon chair and frowning.

He remembered himself.

Although there is father's preference, how can everything be so easy?Battles on the battlefield, factional struggles in the imperial court, intrigues, and royal children, no one has clean hands.

He ascended to the throne of God by stepping on piles of bones, and Xia Yi also came here by stepping on mountains of corpses and seas of blood...but no one in this world likes to kill people.

In the past, only each of them knew, or could pretend not to know, and they didn't want each other to see their bloody past.

Just like Nan Wenqing, after ascension to the throne, he seldom did anything himself, he wished to stay as far away from those bloody scenes as possible.

"If a person threatens you, I will kill him too." Nan Wenqing said suddenly.

"I just, still feel uncomfortable."

Xia Yiwen slowly raised his head, and his eyes fell on the little emperor.The listless and depressed emperor leaning on the dragon chair.

"Your Majesty... really don't blame me?"

Nan Wenqing: ... "If I really blamed you, I wouldn't have kept a sliver of reason in the wine shop and wouldn't have exposed your secret deployment of troops." Nan Wenqing rubbed her temples and sighed , "Don't look at me like this, I won't be happy when I see you nervous and scared."

"Or are you blaming me for saying so many harsh words to you?" Nan Wenqing raised her eyebrows.

"No!" Xia Yi quickly replied.

He was indeed a little flustered, and he hasn't recovered yet.

Until he saw the little emperor with a smile on his lips, looking at him sweetly.

—Seconds, two seconds, three seconds... "Qing'er..." He suddenly felt a little distressed, "Thank you."

Since when did he start, no matter what he does, no matter what he sees, the little emperor always believes, accommodates, and tolerates..."If you really want to thank me, treat yourself better " Nan Wenqing paused, "You are not in good health, but if you fight with others, if you get poisoned, I really won't forgive you."

"Don't worry, I know it well." Xia Yi smiled.

He was one who would seize opportunities, seeing that Nan Wenqing didn't intend to complain about him, he immediately slapped his nose on the face.Without waiting for His Majesty's orders, he walked to the little emperor's side in three strides and two strides, sat on the dragon chair very naturally, leaned back to find a comfortable position, and adjusted his clothes.

The movements were very smooth, and the corners of his eyes were smiling, until the moment he raised his head, he met the little emperor's scrutinizing eyes.

"Is the dragon chair comfortable?" Nan Wenqing's mouth twitched.

This guy can change his face faster than turning the pages of a book.

"It's okay." Xia Yi swallowed, sat a little stiffly, pretending to look nervously at the little emperor in front of him, but didn't have the slightest intention to get up.

"Hiss, you have become more and more arrogant since you came back. The imperial study room in the bedroom follows you around, and you even make your own decisions about things like sealing off the city and dispatching troops? Did you just hand over the imperial seal to you?" Nan Wenqing asked. Picking up the tone, he asked.

"This__" Xia Yi scratched his head.

"I was wrong." With a smile on his face, he said aggrievedly: "Your Majesty, calm down, think about it, if you really scare me, this poison... Maybe it won't be able to control it anytime soon." Living."

What a pity!

A naked threat!

Nan Wenqing tightened her hand holding the fan.

"I originally wanted to discuss it with you after you came back, but I felt that the people coming and going in and out of the wine shop in the past two days... are getting more and more wrong." Xia Yi grabbed Nan Wenqing's wrist and coaxed Forcefully dragged and pressed the person to sit beside him.

"Just last night, not long after you left, I bumped into an unfamiliar servant while I was wandering in the palace. Transport the explosives to the palace." Seeing Nan Wenqing's shocked expression, Xia Yi hurriedly said, "But don't worry, Your Majesty, I have already cleaned up the explosives in the palace, and destroyed all those hidden in the wine shop. "

Nan Wenqing nodded, and Shen Yan said: "It's just that I didn't expect that Mobei has been brewing for so long, and it seems that the day when the sword is on the verge...isn't far away."

Xia Yi held his hand tightly, and said: "Not only Mobei, but also the remnants of southern Xinjiang. It's just that it's still unclear who that person is."

"Maybe I know." Nan Wenqing took a deep breath, and said slowly: "The queen mother often mentioned a person to me—Liu Bai'an."

Nan Wenqing closed her eyes, and suddenly in her mind was the image of her mother passing away after drinking poisoned wine in the late spring of that year.

He stood aside. At that time, he didn't know that it was poisoned wine. His mother told him to go over and listen to the story.

It was only now that he realized that maybe... it was a past event of his mother.

Liu Bai'an?Xia Yi carefully searched for the name in his mind, but there was no clue.

"厨木压__" There was a sudden knock on the door, pulling the two of them back from their contemplation.

"Go in." Nan Wenqing frowned.

It's so late, why are you in such a hurry?

"Your Majesty!" The person who opened the door was dressed in white, with a letter in his hand __ it was Meng Yiyao.

"A report from the border gate. A few days ago, Mobei led a large army to suppress the border, and they have already surrounded Zhennan Pass!"

"What!" Nan Wenqing's pupils shrank suddenly, and he slapped the table.

"Your Majesty, don't worry! A Yao, is the news accurate? Have you estimated the strength of the troops?" Xia Yi got up and said.

"The spies came to report that there were about 15 soldiers and horses, and the leaders were Mo Keer and...A Cai." Meng Yiyao rubbed the letter in his hand and paused.

Nan Wenqing was slightly taken aback.

It seems that the little girl..."A Yi." Nan Wenqing opened his mouth and looked at Xia Yi.

There were stars shining in those eyes, just like when Xia Yi saw Nan Wenqing for the first time.

Xia Yi smiled, bowed his head and saluted, "But according to His Majesty's instructions."

"Your Majesty, please lead the army to fight!" Meng Yiyao was also decisive, calling for battle immediately.

"Good __" Nan Wenqing's eyes were firm, and the majesty of the emperor was immediately revealed.

This is his Majesty, who can be coquettish and pester him like a little kid.

It can also be decisive and heroic.

"Mobei has been coveting my great south for a long time, and the late emperor has already told me that this battle will come sooner or later... Don't wait until tomorrow morning, Meng Yiyao obeys the order! I order you to lead a 20 army on the border, Set off early tomorrow morning. Invigorate our country and protect our mountains and rivers!" Nan Wenqing said with a flick of his sleeves.
