Crazy criticizes Emperor Ji for marrying the regent and becoming more powerful

"Didn't you say you won't come back until tomorrow? Why today?"

"Now that the matter is done, I naturally have to come back early. After all, there are people in Xiangmeng City who have been thinking about me, and there are also people I am thinking about."

Nan Xi walked slowly to Xia Houqi's side, looked at Xia Houqi's bloodless face with a distressed expression, and couldn't help but reach out and touch it.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi couldn't help but curl his lips.

"The person Di Ji mentioned that you are worried about is this king?"

"Why does the prince ask questions when he knows clearly?"

The smile on Xia Houqi's face grew wider, and he hugged Nan Xi. Only by holding Nan Xi tightly in his arms could Xia Houqi feel the reality.

"Aren't you hurt?"

"No, I'm fine. Not only was I not injured, but I also had an unexpected surprise." Nan Xi curled her lips and whispered to Xia Houqi.

She also coveted Xia Houqi's warm embrace.

Hearing this, Xia Houqi was slightly startled, and then let her go.

"What unexpected surprise? Who did you meet, or what did you discover?" Xia Houqi asked.

Then the two of them sat down, and Nan Xi and Xia Houqi talked about some things they accidentally discovered while following Cang Mingtian, as well as the cooperation she had reached with him.

Xia Houqi listened carefully to Nan Xi's words and was very surprised, but it was a good thing for them.

"That being the case, why didn't Cang Mingtian just deal with Xiao Ruyan? Instead, he continued to act beside her?" Xia Houqi frowned and asked in confusion.

"Of course it's because of his soldiers and the critically ill Emperor Yelan."

"What do you mean by that?"

"Cang Mingtian told me that Xiao Ruyan drugged the old emperor so that he was dying and unable to go to the ground. In order to stabilize Xiao Ruyan, Cang Mingtian had to pretend to be confused by her and obey her. Meaning, he was actually trying to stop what Xiao Ruyan was doing. When we went to see him with Cang Qingtian that day, he discovered the clues, so he deliberately created opportunities for us to find the medicine." Nan Xi patiently talked to Xia Houqi explained.

"The people in the city over there were really massacred?" This was the question that Xia Houqi was most concerned about.

"Don't worry, they were not really killed. Cang Mingtian secretly rescued them all and hid them in a very safe place. There are still people responsible for protecting them. The reason why they massacred the city was also to show Xiao Ruyan. That's all." Nan Xi glanced at Xia Houqi and reassured him.

Xia Houqi let out a long sigh of relief when he heard Nan Xi's words.

"Then have you asked Shen Changyi about his condition? Is his leg really broken?"

Hearing this, Nan Xi gave Xia Houqi a regretful look, and then said:

"Shen Changyi's legs were indeed broken because when Yelan Kingdom first invaded the border town, there were too many changes. Cang Mingtian failed to save Shen Changyi. In addition, you should also know Shen Changyi's temperament, which is very tough, so Xiao Ruyan You are not polite to him at all, and being able to save his life is already the result of Cang Mingtian's efforts."

After hearing what Nan Xi said, Xiahou Qi could imagine how Shen Changyi would confront the people of Yelan Kingdom. He indeed had a temper that would rather break than bend.

But fortunately, he saved his life and his leg. After he was rescued from the predicament, he would ask Feng Yue to try his best to heal his leg.

"Did I ask you to give Fengyue the powder you brought back?"

Xia Houqi nodded, "From yesterday to now, Fengyue has been developing the antidote and has never stopped."

"Well, then I'll go take a look. My lord, just have a good rest and don't have to worry about my safety anymore."

Nan Xi smiled at Xia Houqi, then walked out of Xiahou Qi's room calmly, and went to find Fengyue to develop an antidote together.

Xia Houqi couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Nan Xi being so casual. Then he obeyed me and lay down on the bed to rest for a while.

However, he only rested for a short while before going to Xiao Yuanyu and others to discuss the next strategy.

Now that Cang Mingtian has joined, their situation and control will be much better. However, Xia Houqi did not inform Xiao Yuanyu and others about the matters related to Cang Mingtian and Cang Qingtian. For fear of something changing, it is better to hide it first. .

"Why is the prince so sure? Has the prince already found out the situation in the border town?" Xiao Yuanyu couldn't help but ask.

Xia Houqi was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Yuanyu:

"General Xiao, since I said this, I am confident. It is not convenient to disclose the details now."

"If the prince doesn't make it clear, how can we dare to gamble with Xiangmeng City and our lives?" Xiao Yuanyu frowned, looked at Xia Houqi with great disapproval, and asked.

After seeing him, Xia Houqi couldn't help but squint at him, his eyes full of doubts:

"General Xiao's words are quite interesting. As a military general, you must be prepared to sacrifice your life for the country at any time. Let alone you, even if it is me, even if your majesty orders me to attack the border town immediately, I will You won’t frown, why, you have been stable in Xiangmeng City for a long time, are you greedy for life and afraid of death?”

Compared with being yin and yang and being sarcastic, Xia Houqi will never lose to anyone.

Xiao Yuanyu was so stunned by Xia Hou that he couldn't say a word and could only look at him with wide eyes.

The other generals also remained silent and stayed out of the incident.

Now Xia Houqi finally understood that the generals in Xiangmeng City were all cowards. They had been stable for a long time and had long forgotten the instability of fighting on the battlefield.

After seeing this, Xia Houqi sneered, "Well, if you don't want to, I will not force you. The ten thousand elite soldiers I have brought are not vegetarians. Generals, please take good care of Xiangmeng City. How do I manage this?" The border town was recovered!"

After saying that, Xia Houqi walked away.

Nangong Fuyang looked at them deeply for a long time, then sighed and left:

Xiao Yuanyu from Xiangmeng City is a helpless Adou, and cannot be compared with Shen Changyi from the border town.

Nangong Fuyang chased after him and stopped Xia Houqi.

"Your Majesty, please wait—"

Xia Houqi stopped, turned to look at Nangong Fuyang, and asked in a calm tone:

"Is the eldest prince also coming to persuade me to think twice?"

"The prince misunderstood. I support the prince's approach. The prince will not fight an uncertain battle, so I choose to believe in the prince." Nangong Fuyang smiled faintly and then explained.

Xia Houqi calmed down a little when he heard what Nangong Fuyang said.

"Then the eldest prince, is there anything else you want to say?"

"I just hope that the prince will let you know when he takes action. If there is anyone who can use me, just let him know." This is the third time Nangong Fuyang has expressed his position to Xia Houqi.

Xia Hou gave Nangong Fuyang a meaningful look and agreed.

Nan Xi and Fengyue carefully developed a new antidote based on the medicine powder packet and prescribing the right medicine.

Nan Xi was eager to give it a try and wanted to go to the border town immediately to grab a soldier to verify it.

"Is there any progress?" Xia Houqi walked into the pharmacy from the outside and asked.

Nan Xi raised her chin, shook the medicine bottle in her hand at him, and said confidently:

"I'm 80% sure that the antidote this time will work."
