The Favoured Medical Princess: 278 Allegiance
www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!
The two cities of Fuzhong and Kailian were recovered one after another. The news that the crown prince Xiao Yi defeated the Southern Barbarians spread throughout southern Xinjiang as if it had wings. Not only the common people were talking about it, but even the storytellers and opera singers followed suit. Talking about the drama of the Crown Prince fighting the Nanmanzi.
As the Nanman were completely driven out of southern Xinjiang, the war finally came to an end. King Zhennan also returned from Fengjiang City to the Zhennan Palace in Luoyue City, making the palace that had been lifeless for many days lively again.
The servants who stayed behind in the palace have heard a lot of news recently. One moment, it was the Crown Prince fighting off the Southern Barbarians, and another moment, the princess went to the Mingqing Temple to pray for blessings... Each one was more bizarre than the other, and the servants were already feeling itchy. .
As soon as the prince came back, a woman guarding the corner gate immediately grabbed a third-class maid who had gone to Fengjiang City with King Zhennan this time. She pulled her until there was no one in the corner, and then asked in one breath : "Shui Cao, I heard that the princess went to the Mingqing Temple to pray? The prince led the troops not only to completely defeat the Nanman, but also captured several Nanman princes and their cronies alive, plus hundreds of Nanman generals. But really. "Speaking of it, she has watched the prince grow up since she was a child. The prince has always liked to play and make mischief since he was a child. Doesn't he seem to have such ability?
"The princess did go to Mingqing Temple to pray for blessings, but it's nothing to do with the prince," the maid named Shui Cao pursed her lips hesitantly, "that's a bit exaggerated..."
Before she finished speaking, the mother-in-law immediately showed a real expression, "Let me just say, don't I know how capable the prince is?"
Her brazen words made Shui Cao sweat profusely. I had heard before that this Mrs. Cheng liked to brag, as if she was serving the Crown Prince personally. In fact, she was just a gatekeeper. She was better than the three of them. It would be worse to wait for the maid.
Shui Cao said hurriedly: "The Crown Prince did defeat the Southern Barbarians, but he didn't capture several Southern Barbarian princes alive, but only the eldest prince of the Southern Barbarians!"
The mother-in-law Cheng was a little dumbfounded. She blinked stiffly and subconsciously glanced at the sun in the east. The sun did not come out from the west!
At this moment, a dark and thin boy ran in a hurry towards the outer study room, panting as if something big happened.
Mr. Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and stopped the other party: "Li Dayu, you are running in such a hurry, but what happened?"
Li Dayu took a breath and said: "Many people came outside, saying that they heard that the Crown Prince was back, so they wanted to kowtow to the Crown Prince!"
Mr. Cheng's eyes lit up and she asked anxiously: "The prince is back?"
Li Dayu shook his head, "I guess it was because the news about the prince's return spread, and they mistakenly thought that the prince and the prince came back together. ... I won't tell you anymore, I want to report to the prince quickly. ." Li Dayu said and hurried away again.
Mr. Cheng and Shui Cao looked at each other and saw the same meaning in each other's eyes: Let's go! Go watch the fun!
The two people couldn't wait to rush to the gate of the palace. Sure enough, dozens of ragged people, old and young, men and women, were already kneeling outside the gate. Their behavior not only attracted the servants of the palace, but also attracted many people. Passers-by who rarely passed by and those who came after hearing the news flocked to the entrance of the palace to watch the excitement.
The boy guarding the door had a headache. What did it look like with so many people surrounding the entrance of this grand palace? It was not a shop, but these people were not here to cause trouble. People said they were here to thank the Crown Prince. If I insist on driving them away without mercy, it seems a bit inhumane.
He thought for a while and patiently said to those who were kneeling again: "You should leave quickly. I'm not lying to you. The Crown Prince is really not in the palace now."
Those people looked at each other, and the last old man looked up and said: "Although the Crown Prince is not here, we all have received the grace of the Crown Prince. Please allow us to kowtow to the Crown Prince!" With that, he had already taken the first time. One person kowtowed to the cold stone floor, and the dozens of men, women, and children beside him also kowtowed.
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
The sound was firm and strong every time, which made people’s hearts tremble.
The people watching were also moved when they saw this. A young man asked curiously: "What kind of grace have they received from the Crown Prince?"
A middle-aged woman immediately said: "You don't even know this! These people all fled to our Luoyue City after their families were ruined by the Nanbarbarians! Now that the Crown Prince has repelled the Nanbarbarians, So they came to the palace to express their gratitude."
Another young daughter-in-law in her early twenties nodded repeatedly and said: "Thanks to the prince's bravery and skill in fighting, I avenged their **** revenge. I should give the prince a few good kowtows!"
"Speaking of which, if the Crown Prince hadn't repelled the Nanman, our Luo Yue City might not have been safe." Another middle-aged businessman, thinking of the Nanman's capture of several cities a few months ago, still felt a little timid. He was heartbroken. At that time, if the war situation continued to worsen, he was already considering whether he should close the shop quickly and go north with his family...
But fortunately, he waited one more day, and then came the news that the prince had captured Fuxing City from the Nanmanzi. For this reason, he waited and watched for a while, and only heard the good news. News came in a few days... The prince saved Fengjiang City, the prince captured Lingchuan Canyon, the prince regained Fuzhong and Kailian cities, and the prince drove out the Nanmanzi!
"That's right." An old man came over to talk excitedly, "Our feng shui in southern Xinjiang is really good! There used to be an old prince, and now there is a prince. I think that prince must be the reincarnation of the old prince. !"
"Uncle, what nonsense are you talking about?" The middle-aged woman just now shook her head with a smile, "When the prince was born, the old prince was still alive!... I heard that the prince was personally taught by the old prince. ”
"I've heard of it too." I don't know who was also echoing, "That's why the prince has the style of being ancestral!"
Outside the palace, the people watching became more and more excited...
At the same time, King Zhennan in the outer study also learned that people outside the mansion came to kowtow to Xiao Yi, but his face darkened.
He originally felt that his position in southern Xinjiang was in jeopardy because of Xiao Yi's growing popularity. Today's news was like another stab in his heart.
The King of Zhennan ordered in a cold voice: "This is the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion, not a tea house or a theater. Why don't you hurry up and get rid of those people!"
Li Dayu, who came to report the news, was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly responded: "Yes, Your Majesty!"
He hurriedly retreated, but almost ran into Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie outside the study. "General Yao, forgive me!" Li Dayu apologized in panic.
Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie frowned slightly, but did not argue with him. They lifted their robes and walked into the outer study. They clasped their fists and saluted the King of Zhennan: "I have met the prince!"
After the King of Zhennan signaled the two of them to excuse themselves and sit down, Yao Yan reported: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from the Crown Prince. The army will arrive at Luoyue City early tomorrow morning."
Xiao Yi stayed in Kailian City for twenty days to rectify people's livelihood and military affairs, and to put the final touches on the war.
After everything was ready, he led his army back to Luoyue City to resume his duties. Before setting off, he had already ordered someone to report to the King of Zhennan. However, as far as Yao Yan knew, the prince had always been cold and indifferent and did not ask any questions. In a word, it's just that the army is coming back now. Yao Yan feels that the prince should show some expression.
Unexpectedly, when King Zhennan heard the name "Xiao Yi", he frowned and said coldly: "So what? Do I have to go to welcome him in person?"
Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie looked at each other, and finally Song Xiaojie said cautiously: "Your Majesty, I think you should go out of the city to welcome Liuli, and welcome those soldiers who sacrificed for Dayu and Southern Xinjiang back to Luoyue City. ." Song Xiaojie deliberately did not mention Xiao Yi, emphasizing that the people King Zhennan wanted to welcome were the soldiers who died on the battlefield.
But in the mind of King Zhennan, if he went out of the city to greet Xiao Yi, that traitor, wouldn't it make that traitor's arrogance even more arrogant? crazy! He glared at Song Xiaojie and Yao Yan fiercely, thinking that they were really crazy for letting him, the father, bow to that rebellious son! In all this time, there has never been such a thing!
Yao Yan naturally sensed the anger of King Zhennan. Huo Di knelt down on one knee and said in a military salute: "Your Majesty, Emperor Taizu of the previous dynasty personally went out to greet General Li Fei when he returned to the court. It's a good talk, why don't you imitate it?" Yao Yan felt a little heavy, this proposal was made by him and Song Xiaojie after careful consideration.
In this battle with the Southern Barbarians, the reputation of King Zhennan has been completely overshadowed by the crown prince Xiao Yi, and now he can only find another shortcut to remedy the situation.
As the vassal king of southern Xinjiang, if King Zhennan is willing to go out of the city to welcome the returning army, firstly, he can win over the morale of the soldiers and make those soldiers feel that the sacrifices of himself and his colleagues are worthwhile, and secondly, it will The reputation of the King of Zhennan as a virtuous corporal, generous and benevolent, and a kind father and a filial son can be spread throughout southern Xinjiang. As for the third time, it can also ease the relationship with the prince.
This is definitely an idea that kills three birds with one stone!
"Your Majesty..."
Yao Yan was about to analyze the pros and cons when King Zhennan raised his hand to stop him. His eyes flashed and he said, "Okay, I'll go!" After calming down, King Zhennan also knew that Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie's proposal was absolutely beneficial to him. It is beneficial and harmless.
Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie exchanged glances. They were glad that King Zhennan finally figured it out. From now on, they only hope that everything will go smoothly tomorrow.
In the early morning of the next day, before the sky showed the belly of the fish, countless people spontaneously gathered on both sides of the official road to welcome the return of the prince Xiao Yi and his army.
Although it is late winter, the weather is still very cold, but it cannot cool down the burning hearts of the people at all.
When they saw King Zhennan leading a group of soldiers out of the city to greet him in person, their eyes and faces were full of excitement, and they began to discuss in whispers.
Soon, the first ray of the morning star illuminated the eastern sky, and a sharp voice in the crowd shouted: "Here it comes! The army is back!"
A dark piece of armor soon appeared on the horizon, accompanied by the sound of neat footsteps...but the monotonous sound seemed to beat a military drum in the hearts of the people, instantly making their blood boil. Get up, cheer, sing, dance, and shouts of joy come and go:
"The Crown Prince has returned to the city!"
"The prince is a thousand years old!"
"..."
The shouts on both sides were louder and louder. These simple people could only use their own voices to express their gratitude. They were grateful to Xiao Yi for protecting their homeland and for driving away the Nanman thieves.
From a distance, I saw a handsome young man wearing silver armor riding his horse in front of the dark group of people. He looked like the legendary God of War, riding majestically on a black cloud on the snow. As he walked, he looked around on both sides and nodded slightly to the people on the street, making them even more excited and excited. The crowd It was almost boiling.
The King of Zhennan on the side almost vomited blood when he saw such a scene. He has inherited the throne from his father for many years and has never received such treatment! Obviously, as the King of Zhennan, he has been completely robbed of his glory by the crown prince!
Under the complicated and suppressed sight of King Zhennan, Xiao Yi finally led thousands of soldiers to him. He clasped his fists at King Zhennan on his horse and said, "I have seen my father!" But he did not even dismount. , just looked at Zhennan King in front of him indifferently.
The King of Zhennan was unhappy, but he could not get angry with Xiao Yi at this time. He could only put on a father's majesty and said to Xiao Yi in a high-sounding manner: "Ayi, although you won the battle this time, there is an old saying. Yun, the king's soldiers should be victorious without arrogance and defeated without resentment. You should always keep this in mind."
As usual, after the father's earnest teachings, the son only needs to say "Thank you, father, for your teachings", which can be regarded as a smooth situation.
However, Xiao Yi did not follow common sense and said with a half-smile: "My son still remembers that his grandfather often said when he was still alive, when marching and fighting, food and grass go first. If you want to destroy the army, you must first cut off the food; also, the military must have a strong morale. All in all, we cannot hold our own people back...Father, don’t you think so?"
This traitor clearly means something in his words, and he means something! King Zhennan was so angry that his breath choked in his throat, and his eyes bulged slightly. Is it possible that this rebellious son still dares to hate his father?
What Xiao Yi said was not only heard by King Zhennan, but also by the people on the nearby road. There was a commotion in the crowd soon. They all speculated on the meaning of what the prince just said——
Could it be said that the prince led the troops to fight outside, but they couldn't keep the food and grass?
Could it be that someone in southern Xinjiang was holding back the prince?
But the prince is inferior to one person in southern Xinjiang, and above ten thousand people. Who else can take the lead for the prince?
Could it be that...
The common people were whispering to each other and casting suspicious eyes on King Zhennan. Many people were already thinking of asking their relatives and friends in the army to find out what was going on.
Feeling the strange glances from all around, King Zhennan almost cursed the traitor, but Yao Yan saw that King Zhennan looked wrong and hurriedly stopped him: "Your Majesty, the prince is going on an expedition this time. Thank you for your hard work. Why not hurry back to the palace." If this really caused King Zhennan to completely mess up the situation, then Yao Yan and Song Xiaojie's proposal would really become a joke.
The face of King Zhennan was not very good, but he finally came back to his senses and said with a dark face: "Go back to the city!"
Next, the Southern Border Army, headed by Zhennan Prince and his son, returned in triumph back to Luoyue City.
Xiao Yi only brought back several thousand Xuanjia troops this time, and the remaining soldiers were ordered to return to their camps or guard posts.
These Xuanjia troops returned to the Luo Yuecheng camp to rest for a while, while the generals went to the Zhennan Palace with King Zhennan and his son, in order to explain this incident to King Zhennan, the supreme commander of the Southern Border Army. Military intelligence.
When dozens of generals sat down one by one in the main hall of the palace, the originally empty main hall suddenly seemed a little crowded.
Logically, the prince Xiao Yi should personally report the military situation to the King of Zhennan, but the father and son refused to deal with it, and the slightest words seemed to be about to quarrel. So, let Tian He take action and briefly outline the process of how he captured the two cities of Fuzhong and Kailian, how he captured the Nanman eldest prince, how he ordered people to pursue the scattered Nanman army, and how he expelled all the Nanman people. Read it again.
In the end, King Zhennan only said lightly, "I understand," without even a word of praise, which made the hearts of all the soldiers in the hall sink, and some of them felt uncomfortable.
As the saying goes, "Soldiers die for those who know their friends." These victories were hard-won. It was not easy to drive the Nanman out of the territory of Dayu. I didn't expect that King Zhennan would treat these soldiers who returned from the **** battle like this. The contemptuous attitude, coupled with the fact that the King of Zhennan was first unwilling to support them in attacking Fuzhong City, and later even wanted the second young master Xiao Luan to come and **** the crown prince's military glory... These things he did were really disgusting. ah!
King Zhennan was not aware of the subtle changes in these soldiers. He was thinking about something more important.
"Xiao Yi," King Zhennan's burning eyes fell on Xiao Yi, who was sitting on his right, "Now that the war is over, where are the military symbols?"
This sentence was just a few words, but the expressions of all the soldiers present changed slightly.
Is the prince urging the prince to return the military talisman quickly?
Thinking about this, the officers and soldiers felt more and more uncomfortable. Although the generals should return the military symbols immediately after the war, the prince just returned to the palace, and his buttocks were not even hot. The prince did not praise or reward him, but this was the case. Isn't it too impatient to take back the weapon talisman?
The bird is gone and the bow is hidden!
Those four words appeared in the minds of the generals again, and their expressions were extremely complicated.
Xiao Yi's face remained as usual, he looked at King Zhennan calmly and said confidently: "Father, according to the rules set by my grandfather, when the prince reaches adulthood, he can lead an army as a training exercise. My son is now married. As the saying goes, 'First start a family, then start a career', it's time to learn to manage military affairs."
"Nonsense!" King Zhennan slapped his hand on the armrest, his face turned blue, and he said angrily, "Your grandfather's rule is that only the heir apparent can command the army. You are only seventeen now, it's still early!"
The soldiers below all looked at each other. Most of the generals had heard of the rules set by the old Zhennan King, but this was just a verbal sentence and there was no explicit rule.
What the prince said is not unreasonable.
Besides, the Crown Prince's defeat of the Southern Barbarians has demonstrated his ability to march and fight as the Crown Prince to the southern border and the southern border army. It is expected that he will take charge of part of the military power.
It's just that the prince is so unhappy with the prince, I'm afraid... the generals all looked at each other, looking back and forth between the father and son, with different thoughts.
Xiao Yi ignored the anger of King Zhennan, stood up and said lazily: "Father, my son has been marching for several days and is exhausted. Please forgive my son for being rude and retreat first."
This treacherous son actually ignored me and wanted to give up his military talisman! King Zhennan stood up suddenly, pointed at Xiao Yi's back and said, "Sir, stop!" He glared at Xiao Yi with monstrous anger, roaring like an angry lion.
Xiao Yi, however, had no intention of stopping. He was so angry that the King of Zhennan threatened him without hesitation: "Treason, do you think I dare not destroy you?"
This sentence made even Yao Yan's heart sink, and his brows furrowed slightly, showing a hint of disappointment. The prince's actions are based on personal likes and dislikes, which is really a disaster rather than a blessing for Nanjiang. After deposing the prince, is it possible to let the second young master become the prince?
Yao Yan thought of this, and so did the generals.
Xiao Yi finally stopped, but looked at King Zhennan with disdain, and said lightly: "I wonder what name my father plans to submit the letter under?"
Not to mention that he just won the battle, this deposed prince also needs the emperor's approval!
King Zhennan was stunned to the extreme for a moment. This rebellious son had the support of the emperor, and he no longer had his father in his eyes!
Damn it! It’s truly abominable...
The King of Zhennan felt a surge of anger rushing straight to his forehead. Suddenly his vision went dark and he fell back in a daze. He only heard a few exclamations: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty..."
King Zhennan suddenly fainted, and Xiao Yi naturally couldn't leave anymore. He looked at the unconscious King Zhennan with a complicated expression and ordered his servants to call for a doctor.
The comatose King Zhennan was quickly sent to the bedroom of Shi'an Courtyard, and the whole palace became commotion... Xiao Fei and Xiao Luan soon heard the news, and at this time, Doctor Wu in the palace had just I checked the pulse of Zhennan King.
Xiao Fei hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Doctor Wu, how is your father now?"
Doctor Wu wiped a strand of his beard and replied: "Sister, the prince was so angry that he fainted. As long as I prescribe some fire-clearing medicine and let the prince take a few doses, he will be fine soon. ."
The maid then led Doctor Wu to write the prescription.
Xiao Fei glanced around the bedroom and asked in a bad tone: "Where is my eldest brother? My father has fainted, and he is not waiting at the bedside?"
The maid serving beside the King of Zhennan's bed knelt down in fear and replied: "The prince came to see the prince once, and it seems that he has gone to the outer study now."
"My father is so ill, yet he still wants to go to the study!" Xiao Fei was so angry that she knitted her beautiful eyebrows together, turned to Xiao Luan and said, "Second brother, let's go to the eldest brother together... Big brother is so outrageous!"
As soon as he heard that he was going to find Xiao Yi, Xiao Luan shrank reflexively, and said with a pale face: "If you want to go find him, you go alone, I won't go!" He ran away impatiently, " Since my father is fine, I will go back to study first!"
What reading? ! Or is he just flirting with that Pianpian of his! Xiao Fei stamped her feet, bit her lower lip and said, "If you don't go, I'll go by myself!"
With a strong will, Xiao Fei rushed into Xiao Yi's study room angrily. She started with a rebuke, talking about how unfilial Xiao Yi was... and finally defended her outspoken words: " As a younger sister, I know that an eldest brother is like a father, but Confucius also said: "If a father quarrels with his son, he should not be rude; if a scholar quarrels with his friends, it should not be unjust. Therefore, when a son obeys his father, does it make a mockery of a son's filial piety? A minister obeys the emperor, a mockery of a minister's chastity?" The reason why he follows it is called filial piety and chastity.'" She quoted scriptures and talked eloquently, with a righteous look, "As a younger sister, I can't just watch my elder brother make mistakes, but Be silent."
Xiao Yi was nonchalant from beginning to end. As a younger sister, he likes to convince people with reason. This kind of person is always easier to deal with than unreasonable people.
He smiled slightly and said: "Eldest sister is right. It's just that I have a heavy responsibility now, so I should focus on the overall situation of southern Xinjiang. There is also an old saying: 'Don't ignore the king's father's order with the father's order, and don't use the family affairs to make up for it. King's affairs', the king's order is higher than the father's order, and the king's affairs are more important than family affairs. Sister, you are a woman, so it is natural that you don't understand."
Xiao Fei concluded for a moment that what Xiao Yi said was true. The emperor's destiny is higher than the father's destiny. With a word from the emperor, the ministers can seize love without Ding You. But...
Xiao Fei wanted to say something else, but Xiao Yi no longer wanted to hear it. He picked up the tea and said: "Sister, I still have something to take care of. If you have nothing to do, please go with your father. ."
He had already served tea to see the guests off, and Xiao Fei couldn't think of anything to refute for a while, so she frowned tightly.
At this time, Tian He and several other generals were outside the study door asking to see Xiao Yi. Seeing this, Xiao Fei still remembered the importance of military affairs, stamped her feet, and turned to leave.
Several people came in and saluted Xiao Yi.
They all followed Xiao Yi on his conquests and witnessed him regaining lost lands one by one. They were also the most convinced of him among all the generals in southern Xinjiang.
After arriving in Luoyue City, Xiao Yi did not deliberately order anyone to do anything. They came unanimously at this time, but they had already made a decision in their hearts.
"The Crown Prince!" Tian He looked up at Xiao Yi and said decisively on behalf of everyone, "I will follow the Crown Prince!"
They all had solemn expressions and bright eyes, looking directly at Xiao Yi without hesitation.
In the confrontation between King Zhennan and the Crown Prince, they chose to side with Xiao Yi, and they chose to be loyal to Xiao Yi!
They clasped their fists at the same time, knelt down on one knee, lowered their heads and waited.
A group of veteran generals led by Tian He and Feng Xin, a younger generation of generals led by Mo Xiuyu, and everyone who had fought alongside him, a total of eleven military generals offered their loyalty to him , in fact, including Yao Lianghang.
Xiao Yi’s expression remained unchanged, he nodded slightly and said, "I understand. Get up."
This is already allowing them! Everyone could not restrain their excitement and responded loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Everyone stood up, Xiao Yi gave him a seat, and said bluntly: "The emperor's decree should be coming soon in the next few days. If everything goes well, I will return to the capital within this month. The 40,000 people I have now, I During my absence, I will trouble General Laotian."
These 40,000 people were taken by Xiao Yi from King Zhennan one after another. There were 300,000 troops in southern Xinjiang, of which 200,000 were registered by the imperial court. These 40,000 people were only one-eighth of them. But the so-called three hundred thousand is just a nice word. It also includes logistics troops, disabled soldiers and veterans. Furthermore, Dayu implements a guard system. There are only 80,000 standing troops in southern Xinjiang, and the remaining They were trained uniformly and mobilized during wartime, and they still mainly engaged in farming on weekdays.
After Xiao Yi returned to southern Xinjiang, he also deliberately selected during successive battles, and only the most elite ones were left behind.
How could he give up these 40,000 people in vain? Otherwise, what would be the point of his coming back?
Tian He stood up and responded respectfully: "Yes, the Crown Prince."
Others' eyes showed deep reverence. They all heard from Tian He that the Crown Prince would insist on putting himself in danger and take the initiative to go to the royal capital as a hostage, for the sake of the entire Southern Xinjiang! The Prince of Zhennan has been in charge of Southern Xinjiang for a long time. If Dayu decides to take back Southern Xinjiang one day, he will definitely get rid of Prince Zhennan. If this happens, a war will be inevitable. When the time comes, the people of Southern Xinjiang will suffer. . However, the prince acted foolishly and was unable to support Southern Xinjiang. They had no choice but to rely on the prince.
The prince can do this for them, and they will definitely protect the southern border for the prince.
"After I leave, all military affairs will be temporarily taken care of by General Tian." Xiao Yi said, "General Tian, General Feng, my father is willful in doing things. After I leave, he will definitely try to take back this military power. , then it will depend on the two generals."
After all, Tian He and Feng Xin are the people left behind by the old Zhennan King. They have always had prestige in the army. With the two of them here, they are enough to contain the Zhennan King.
"Prince, please rest assured." The two of them clasped their fists at the same time, and Tian He said pointedly, "The rules for the prince to be in charge of an army when he becomes an adult were set by the old prince, and he has no right to change them." They all know that, This is actually just an excuse for Xiao Yi not to return his military power, but if the excuse is used well, it becomes a rule!
Xiao Yi nodded slightly, and just as he was about to speak, Fu Yunhe hurried over and reported: "Brother, Nanmanzi sent an envoy with a letter of peace. He wants to negotiate peace with me, Dayu, and..." His expression With a strange look on his face, he said, "The envoy also said that he is willing to give their saint to the eldest brother, just in exchange for the eldest prince."
