Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 558 Say goodbye to growing up at the end of ten years old

Mr. Ruo is the most outstanding strategist under Xiao Xu, this time he returned to the court after defeating the enemy, Mr. Ruo did not come with him, but stayed at the border.But I didn't want to see him at this time.At this time, his clothes were covered with mud, it could be seen that he had traveled a long distance non-stop, and his face was also tired.

When Huo Ling and Tu Ling saw their master's appearance, they knew it in their hearts. The master had confessed his true face to the little princess. It seemed that the status of the little princess in the master's heart was getting higher and higher.

Xiao Xu made room for someone to come in, and Huo Ling and Earth Spirit followed behind Mr. Ruo also came in.

Xiao Xu first poured Mr. Ruo a cup of hot tea to let him catch his breath, then turned to the earth spirit and fire spirit. .

At this time, Huo Ling first submitted an urgent secret report.

From Xixuan Palace.

When Xiao Xu saw the handwriting on it, he knew who sent it.

He hesitated for a moment, then finally opened it.

After a quick glance, Xiao Xu's face suddenly turned cold. In order to let him go back to Xixuan, the queen mother actually forced him to die!
The letter stated that his father planned to make Xiao Ran the crown prince on the grounds that he had been missing for several months. As long as he appeared in Xixuan, his father's plan would be cancelled, so if he dared to abandon the eldest prince of Xixuan, identity, leave the Liang family, leave everything and leave, then she will die in Zhaoyang Palace for him to see.

Besides threatening him with filial piety, what else could the queen mother do?
The change in Xiao Xu's expression did not escape everyone's eyes, but the whole room suddenly became cold.

He closed his eyes, and the sadness in his eyes was put away by him.

"Mr. Ruo, what's the purpose of coming to find this king this time?" He always treats this counselor gently and politely.

Mr. Ruo bowed to Chao Xiao Xu, and then explained the reason why he came here.

"My lord, after you disappeared in Xixuan, I was very worried. I took people from the border to look for you, but halfway I received news from Xiao Lieqi. Knowing that you were safe, I planned to return to the border, but I didn't want to receive Shui Ling. The other piece of news is that traces of mines have been found on the Fuli Mountains. Maybe there are really hidden mines, but I think the most important thing for you at that time should be to find the antidote, so I asked Shui Ling to temporarily put this piece of news aside. "

Mr. Ruo continued, "But not long ago, I received the news that you were assassinated. These people are not only from the imperial court, but also from the Jianghu. That's why I came to you when I remembered this matter again. I know that you don't have the heart to chase the stag, but I worry that one day, the tiger will not harm people's hearts, but people have the intention to kill tigers."

Xiao Xu frowned, "If Mister has something to say, just say it."

Mr. Ruo nodded and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, although I know that you have planned to live in seclusion in the court and will no longer interfere in Xixuan's political affairs, I am worried that those who were your enemies in the past will not let you go, including the current one. Your Majesty, at the beginning, His Majesty used the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain to keep you away from the capital, but he did not expect that you would survive. Now there are traces of mines in the Fuli Mountain Range, so I think that the prince can return to the Fuli Mountain Range by himself. On the surface, I told His Majesty to be an idle prince, responsible for continuing to search for mineral deposits in the Fuli Mountains, and when you appeared in everyone's sight, those people would not dare to assassinate you so blatantly, and at the same time, your Majesty was less wary of you."

Xiao Xu understood what he meant, and couldn't help frowning in thought.

Afraid that he would not agree, Mr. Ruo immediately said, "Your Highness, you have no intention of participating in the struggle for power, but you also have the ability to protect yourself. No one knows if His Majesty will take action against you one day. Since he gave The Fuli Mountains are given to you, but we don’t know that there are really mineral deposits in them, so we can push the boat along the way and use the mineral deposits inside for our own use. If one day turns against each other and you have something to rely on, His Majesty will not dare to touch you easily.”

Tu Ling and Huo Ling looked at each other, they didn't expect that the matter had developed to this point, they immediately looked at their master, not knowing what decision he would make.

"Let the king consider it." Xiao Xu got up and turned his back to the crowd, and said indifferently, but no one knew that the person with his back to them slowly clenched his hands in the sleeves, showing a bit of bitterness on his face.

Mr. Ruo still wanted to say something, but seeing that the prince had already shown his refusal to continue the conversation, he sighed, and went out with the earth spirit and fire spirit.

But Xiao Xu didn't know how long he stood, and felt that there was an extra person behind him.

"Big ice cube."

"Why are you here?" Xiao Xu turned around and saw that she was wearing loose regular clothes, so he could guess that she should have fallen asleep, and got up again.

He stepped forward and picked up the cloak on the back of the chair to wrap her tightly, then sat down on the chair beside her.

"I've heard what happened tonight from Huo Ling and the others. Are you troubled?" Chu Qingyan asked with concern.

"Yeah." Xiao Xu admitted, and then he asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"

Chu Qingyan lowered her head and thought for a moment when she heard the words, then raised her head and smiled brightly, "Go to the Fuli Mountains, put the mines there in your pocket, recharge your energy, and then see who dares to harm us in the future, and then show up to scare him to death !"

"Don't you want to go around?" This was one of the reasons for his hesitation. He had promised her that he would no longer participate in the government affairs.

"Playing is a trivial matter, making a fortune is the big thing. It is not advisable to sit and eat, and I want you, a big ice cube, to live in Xixuan in an upright manner!" Chu Qingyan suddenly looked at him with a serious face, "Big ice cube, I don't want you!" Others think that you are timid and fearful, so you will hide and hide and dare not come out to show others. Even if they want to misbehave with us, it doesn't matter, come and hit one, come and fly a pair, I still don't believe it, those who flaunt themselves with a gentleman People who dare to harm others openly!"

"Big Ice Cube, you are not wrong, it is time for you to take back what belongs to you. This is what Xixuan owes you! Besides, we are only here to protect ourselves, not to cause civil strife, so there is nothing to worry about! On the contrary, they, If we dare to touch us any more, we will smash them down with mines!" Chu Qingyan said with righteous indignation!

Xiao Xu looked at her little face that was flushed red with anger, and suddenly showed off.

"it is good."

This is his bottom line, the last concession.

If he steps on his bottom line next time, then he won't let it go so easily.

After the New Year's Eve of that year, Xixuan Kingdom unexpectedly experienced heavy snowfall.

On the third day of the first lunar month, Emperor Xixuan received a letter from Xiao Xu, which stated that he had been missing for some time due to a stab wound and recuperated, and now his health suddenly deteriorated. Xuan did his last bit.

The court ministers were moved by the king's actions, saying that the king had made great contributions to the country and the people for so many years, and now that he was seriously injured, he was still thinking about Xixuan, so they asked Emperor Xixuan to grant his request.

But Emperor Xixuan was moved after seeing the last paragraph in the eldest son's letter.

The son-in-law thought that his talents were not enough to take on the great responsibility, so he voluntarily gave up his right to inherit the throne.

He now needs time to wait for Ran'er to grow up, so Xu'er's letter came at the right time. After Ran'er grows up, these people who are not conducive to Ran'er's consolidation of the imperial power will be eradicated one by one!
After all, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers.

After Emperor Xixuan agreed, Xiao Xu took Xiao Lieqi and others to the Fuli Mountains.

In a flash, it was four years.

After four years, what kind of growth did those people become?

What kind of years and youth will that boy with dark eyes, that ten-year-old girl experience?

Fighting for imperial power, conspiracy and deceit, can you and I stay together forever?

After going through thousands of dangers, Phoenix Nirvana, I will play a song for you, Phoenix Seeking Phoenix!
