Qin Xuechuan was stunned for a moment when he heard what he said, and then he laughed loudly: "Hahaha—do you think you can deceive me with this kind of reason, Master? Tell me, what enmity do you have with the Xiao family?" ?”

Wu Lin knew a long time ago that Qin Xuechuan would not believe him if he said it. At this moment, he said again: "I have known for a long time that Your Majesty will ask such a question, so I have a merciless request."

"What are you asking for?"

Wu Lin said: "Your Majesty can check the background of the minister. I have never had any contact with the Xiao family, and there is no reason to frame them. Therefore, what I said today is all from the bottom of my heart. For the stability of the country, I ask your majesty to kill Xiao." Prince. If your majesty is worried that after the death of prince Xiao, the king of Linchuan will rebel, then you can come up with advice from the underground side and come up with a perfect idea for your majesty."

Qin Xuechuan suddenly felt startled when he heard this, he couldn't control himself and grabbed Wu Lin by the collar: "Okay, so you have even thought about the murder plan, it's because I underestimated you ?”

Seeing this, Wu Lin still calmly said: "Your Majesty can do whatever you want with me, but before I die, I only want Your Majesty's country to last forever, so I'm willing to risk my life to talk about it."

"Then what is your plan, tell me and let me know."

But at this moment, Wu Lin suddenly showed a smile: "Why are you so anxious to catch up with the minister's plan? Is your majesty really soft-hearted towards that traitorous minister? Your majesty... If you don't kill him, one day he will kill him." Will kill you, does Your Majesty want to give up the throne that he has earned so hard?"

Qin Xuechuan gave him a cold look, he didn't seem to have listened to Wu Lin's words just now, he just wanted to know what Wu Lin was planning and what method he was planning to use to kill Xiao Yu.At this moment, he looked at Wu Lin with a sullen expression: "Aren't you going to tell me?"

Wu Lin said again: "Your Majesty, since I dare to risk my life to speak out, I must have thought of a perfect plan when I come again. For the sake of your country's stability, if you are soft-hearted and unable to do anything, then only I will do it for you. If today I If you can't go back alive, Prince Xiao will also go down to accompany the minister."

"Damn it!" Qin Xuechuan let go of him.Wu Lin had been by Qin Yuan's side for so many years anyway, if he really wanted to be unfavorable to Xiao Yu, it was not impossible.The most urgent thing is to get out of his mouth what he wants to do.

"Okay, very good, you dare to threaten me, I can immediately call Xiao Yu into the palace, and then kill you, do you think I will believe your nonsense?"

Wu Lin said again: "If Your Majesty doesn't trust the minister, then His Majesty will not be so excited. Besides, His Majesty intends to deal with the Xiao family, so what's the point of killing Xiao Yu?"

Qin Xuechuan calmed down after hearing his words. He really wanted to deal with the Xiao family...but he never thought of letting Xiao Yu die.To a certain extent, Xiao Yu is very important to him... Even if one day the Xiao family falls, he will give Xiao Yu a way out.

He suddenly remembered the day he met Xiao Yu... It has been six years so far, he wanted to use Xiao Yu, he wanted Xiao Yu to be the sword in his hand, but he never thought of killing Xiao Yu .

Emperor Star...

Qin Xuechuan turned his back, and he called out in the bedroom: "Come here."

As soon as the words were finished, a group of imperial guards came in, Qin Xuechuan told them: "I'm so lucky to send the national teacher back to the residence, if anything happens on the way, I'm the only ones to ask!"

"Yes! The general obeys the order!" After speaking, a person walked up to Wu Lin, "My lord, please!"

Seeing this, Qin Xuechuan turned around and patted Wu Lin on the shoulder: "I know that the national teacher has always been thinking about Da Chu, and I am very relieved. It was just that I didn't think carefully. I will think about what you said. Today's weather It's late, you should go home first."

Wu Lin frowned slightly after hearing his words, then he knelt down and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty, then I will take my leave first!"

Qin Xuechuan nodded slightly at him at this moment, and then gestured to the guard next to him.

***

As soon as Wu Lin left, Qin Xuechuan yelled, "Li Ying!"

As soon as the words fell, a black shadow flashed in front of him, and Li Ying knelt beside him at this moment: "I don't know what orders your majesty has?"

Qin Xuechuan hastily said: "Hurry up! Go to Xiaohou's mansion to find Shizi Xiao quickly, tell him that I have something important to ask him, and let him come to the palace quickly. Remember to keep this matter secret, and you have to do it quietly. Also let him come quietly, don't let anyone know."

After hearing his words, Li Ying quickly said: "Yes, my subordinates will obey the holy orders!"

After finishing speaking, Li Ying disappeared in front of Qin Xuechuan like a black shadow.

And at this moment, Qin Xuechuan's imperial guards were still slowly sending Wu Lin back to the residence on the long street in the palace.And just when he was about to walk to the main entrance, these imperial guards suddenly met a person, and the leader shouted loudly: "Who is in front?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Lin raised his head slightly to look at the person in front of him. It was dark at night.The imperial guards with lanterns rushed up and surrounded the man.

"Who is sneaking around in the palace?"

But at this moment, the man suddenly raised his head and looked at them innocently: "It's me, I'm someone next to His Majesty."

As soon as the words were finished, the light shone on his face, and the imperial guard hurriedly said: "Oh, it's Mr. Pei. Your subordinates are so reckless. Please don't take offense."

Pei Xing chuckled when he heard what they said, and said: "It's okay, you are also thinking about the safety of the imperial city, by the way, what's the important thing for His Majesty to send you out so late?"

The leader of the forbidden army said: "Your Majesty has ordered you to personally escort Master Guoshi back to the residence."

After Pei Xing heard it, he looked towards Wu Lin, and he realized that Wu Lin seemed to be staring at him just now.But when he looked over there, Wu Lin lowered his head again. At this moment, he frowned slightly, and then saluted Wu Lin respectfully: "It turns out that it is the Master of the State Teacher, Your Majesty!" It's really impolite, since the general has something important to do, then I won't disturb you, general, go slowly."

"Master Pei is polite."

After they finished speaking, they walked in the opposite direction. At this moment, a person who was following Wu Lin carefully noticed that Wu Lin had put on the hat of the black cloak on his head again, which covered his eyes. half face.Just now he lowered his head again, so people in the distance could not see his face.

And at this moment, hidden under the black cloak was a terrified face...

Wu Lin's eyes widened suddenly, and he murmured in a low voice: "How is it possible... how is this possible? He is still alive, he is still alive, and he will kill His Majesty..."

In this way, he was sent back to the National Teacher's Mansion with an uneasy mood.

As soon as Wu Lin left, someone asked to see him.Qin Xuechuan thought it was Xiao Yu who came, so he went out excitedly to have a look, but when he saw that it was Pei waking up, he froze for a moment.

"Why did you come to me so late, sir? The palace gate is about to be unlocked right now."

After hearing his question, Pei Xing quickly replied: "Recently, I have been in a bad mood, and I was worried about your majesty's health, so I came here in the middle of the night to deliver some tonics to your majesty. This medicine minister has personally tried it for your majesty, and the bitterness is also mild. Some. His Majesty should feel better after eating."

Qin Xuechuan nodded when he heard this, and then he said: "It's really..."

When Pei Xing heard what he was about to say, he hurriedly said: "It's my blessing to be able to serve His Majesty, and it's all due. Your Majesty doesn't look very well today, do you want me to check your pulse again?"

Qin Xuechuan froze for a moment when he heard this, he thought that Xiao Yu would come soon, so it is better not to let other people stay here at this time.

Qin Xuechuan smiled slightly at this moment: "Maybe it's because of the cold weather these days, I don't hinder you to go back first."

After hearing this, Pei Xing said again: "Yes, I obey the order!"

Just when he finished speaking, Qin Xuechuan stopped him again: "Sir, please wait a moment!"

Pei Xing turned around when he heard his words: "What other orders does Your Majesty have?"

Qin Xuechuan said again: "It's getting late, sir, I'm afraid it will be troublesome to return home now, I ordered someone to arrange a room for you, you can go out of the palace tomorrow, right?"

After Pei Xing heard this, he frowned slightly, then he smiled and said: "Yes, since it is His Majesty's will, I must obey."

As soon as the words fell, Qin Xuechuan called the palace servants outside: "Come here, send Master Pei to the other hall to rest."

"Yes! The servant obeys the order!"

After finishing speaking, Pei Xing said again: "The minister will retire first."

***

After Pei Xing left, Qin Xuechuan looked at the medicine and frowned slightly, just when he wanted someone to put the medicine down first.There was a sudden knock at the side door of the bedroom.

The side gates were guarded by Yunfei and Li Ying, the dead soldiers he had trained since the East Palace. Qin Xuechuan hurried over when he heard the movement.When he arrived at the side door, he found that the side door was ajar, and there seemed to be no one outside.

Just when Qin Xuechuan was in doubt, he heard a sound of quiet footsteps behind him, and at this moment he turned his head quickly - he saw Xiao Yu stretching out his hand to pat him on the shoulder.

Qin Xuechuan was very excited when he saw this, so he immediately hugged him.

Xiao Yu was stunned at this moment, he saw through the door the guards waiting for him outside, so at this moment he signaled with his eyes to ask those people to close the palace door first.

Qin Xuechuan hugged him quietly like this for a long time, Xiao Yu felt that he was trembling, as if he was afraid of something, at this moment he stretched out his hand and stroked Qin Xuechuan's back: "What's wrong with you? Li Ying came to me and let me Immediately go to the palace to see you, and don't allow other people to know, I thought something happened to you, but I'm worried to death."

Qin Xuechuan suddenly raised his head after hearing what he said, and a smile appeared on his pale face: "It's nothing, I just missed you suddenly, if I don't see you, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep tonight."

This kind of words... Qin Xuechuan said it for the first time, Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment, and then he put his arms around Qin Xuechuan's waist and looked at him affectionately: "Really?"

"Of course, don't go back tonight." Qin Xuechuan grabbed Xiao Yu's hand.

After hearing what he said, Xiao Yu suddenly frowned slightly: "Don't you often say that you and I have been in close contact so that people will be suspicious? I didn't expect you to let me live in the palace now?"

Qin Xuechuan said: "Anyway, if anyone saw you when you came, it doesn't matter if you stay here for a few days. I remember that you will be on duty tomorrow night, and I will find someone to replace you, so that others will think that you are still on guard. to the palace."

Seeing him like this, Xiao Yu felt even more puzzled...Qin Xuechuan had never been like this before, but his appearance was more like chaos.

At this moment, he couldn't help frowning and asked: "What's wrong with you, did something happen?"

Qin Xuechuan shook his head at this moment, he raised his head and smiled: "No, nothing happened. It's just...you're not by my side, I'm suddenly scared..."

Xiao Yu looked at him with red eyes when he raised his head, and his heart suddenly softened. At this moment, he hugged Qin Xuechuan.Qin Xuechuan was stunned now.

He hugged Qin Xuechuan to the bed, this time it was different, this time his movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of hurting Qin Xuechuan.

Qin Xuechuan thought he was going to do it... so he closed his eyes... His hands tightly grasped the bed sheet under him, his pale knuckles were turning blue.His health will not be very good once winter begins, if Xiao Yu tortures him again, he may have to lie in bed for a long time again, but the current situation... there is no way to refuse.

He had to ask Xiao Yu to stay. Wu Lin, an old fox, had been in the palace for so many years. If he was able to kill those 30 soldiers back then, there was no guarantee that he would not use some tricks to kill Xiao Yu.

He must keep Xiao Yu here until his safety is ensured.

Xiao Yu took off his outer robe at this moment, and untied his complicated clothes one by one.Recently there was only one layer of underwear left, just when he thought Xiao Yu was going to continue, he suddenly stopped.

Qin Xuechuan slowly opened his eyes at this time, he saw Xiao Yu put down the gauze curtain on the bed, and then took off his coat to cover Qin Xuechuan with the quilt.

He also got under the quilt and hugged Qin Xuechuan with one arm: "Okay, don't be afraid anymore. Go to sleep."

Qin Xuechuan suddenly felt that his body was very warm, the two of them pressed together, Xiao Yu's body temperature warmed him, hotter than the stove fire.At this moment, his face turned red, and he buried his face in Xiao Yu's arms.

"Just now... I suddenly dreamed that someone harmed you."

Don't let him know what Wu Lin said.

Xiao Yu chuckled lightly after hearing him say this in a low voice, and he looked down at the helpless and pitiful person curled up in his arms: "So Your Majesty is afraid because of this?"

Qin Xuechuan nodded slightly: "Mmm..."

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard his words, and he suddenly hugged Qin Xuechuan tightly: "Don't be afraid, no one will harm you if I am here, and of course no one will be able to harm me if His Majesty is here, you Say yes?"

Qin Xuechuan nodded again when he heard this: "Yes...with me around, no one can harm you, your life belongs only to me."

After hearing this, Xiao Yu coaxed him softly: "Yes, my life belongs to Your Majesty, no one in this world can take my life except Your Majesty."

Qin Xuechuan suddenly laughed when he heard his words: "Yes, only I can..."

I probably won't kill you.

***

Xiao Yu stayed with Qin Xuechuan for a few days, but Qin Xuechuan didn't feel anything when he ate and lived with him.Xiao Yu lived in the palace, probably no one would dare to harm him, but seeing Qin Xuechuan being suspicious these days, Xiao Yu couldn't help worrying about him.

"Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."

At this moment, a palace official put the jade bowl on the table.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu hurriedly stepped forward: "You go down first, as long as your majesty has me here."

As soon as he finished speaking, the maid put the medicine beside him, Xiao Yu gently helped Qin Xuechuan up, and brought two soft pillows for him to lean on.

Qin Xuechuan looked at him and smiled: "There are palace servants taking care of these things, why do you have to do it yourself?"

Xiao Yu smiled after hearing this: "If possible, I would like to take care of you for the rest of my life."

"Don't say that, it's as if I can't walk. Besides... Your life is still long, so you don't need to waste time on me. "

Hearing his words, Xiao Yu quickly stepped forward and covered his mouth: "You mustn't say that, my life is as long as your life is."

Qin Xuechuan laughed when he heard his words: "Aiqing's words mean, do you want to sleep with me in the same coffin after I die?"

"If you go ahead of me, I will accompany you." At this moment, he looked at Qin Xuechuan with a very serious expression, Qin Xuechuan suddenly felt a little touch at this moment, he suddenly put his arms around Xiao Yu's neck, "No matter what happens to me in the future, you must live on. I hope that we will never sleep in the same coffin."

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard his words, and he smiled: "Well... I hope Your Majesty can live a long and healthy life."

As soon as the words finished, Xiao Yu brought over the medicine bowl: "The medicine is getting cold, why don't you drink it first?"

Qin Xuechuan nodded after hearing this.Xiao Yu brought the medicine in front of him, and then drank a spoonful to test the temperature for him, when the medicine entered his mouth, he suddenly frowned slightly.

Just as Qin Xuechuan was about to take the jade bowl, Xiao Yu suddenly put the medicine on the table next to him: "Axue, who prescribed this medicine for you?"

Qin Xuechuan was stunned for a moment when he heard this question, and then replied: "It's that Mr. Pei next to me, you have seen it before. This medicine was sent by him a few days ago, why is there something wrong with this medicine?"

Xiao Yu frowned even more when he heard this, and now he put down the jade bowl: "Don't drink this medicine, I still have some doubts in my heart, after I show this medicine to Guan Xuan, I will take it again." decide."

Seeing his serious expression, Qin Xuechuan asked again: "You mean there is something wrong with this medicine?"

Xiao Yu nodded slightly: "I'm not sure now, but Guan Xuan has taken care of me since I was a child, and I have also been exposed to some herbal medicines. Maybe this is also my illusion, but before Guan Xuan saw these medicines, You'd better stop taking this medicine."

Qin Xuechuan saw that he looked suspicious, so he smiled slightly: "Well, whatever you say is what you say. But I think Mr. Pei has always been by my side, so there should be no reason to harm me."

After hearing his words, Xiao Yu shook his head again: "It is imperative to be on guard against others, Axue, you haven't told me the origin of Pei Xing, he might be against you."

After Qin Xuechuan heard this, he smiled again: "Pei Xing is a monk I met in Lushan. I was still the crown prince at that time, and he had no reason to harm me. Besides, he has been by my side for three years. If he wants to harm me, I'm afraid I'm no longer in this world, I think you're being supercilious."

Xiao Yu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then muttered to himself: "Hmm... I hope it's just me thinking too much."

***

Xiao Yu lived in the palace for a few days, and finally left the palace when he couldn't help it.Qin Xuechuan was afraid that Wu Lin would be unfavorable to Xiao Yu again, so he went to the National Teacher's Mansion to invite Wu Lin over. Unexpectedly, when he went to look for Wu Lin again, the building was already empty.

Qin Xuechuan was furious when he found out, because after Wu Lin went back that day, Qin Xuechuan sent the forbidden army to guard him strictly.But even so, he let that Wu Lin run away.

In order to protect Xiao Yu, Qin Xuechuan naturally wouldn't take Wu Lin's words to heart, but he didn't have any doubts in his heart.But he doesn't believe in these theories of divination and ghosts, as for Xiao Yu is the Emperor Star...

Qin Xuechuan thought for a moment that the Xiao clan would rebel in the original book, but he has changed so many things, as long as he makes good use of Xiao Yu, then he will definitely change the original ending.

He believed in Xiao Yu...he believed that Xiao Yu would never betray him.

When Qin Xuechuan sent people to surround the National Teacher's Mansion, Li Ying found a letter from Wu Lin's mansion, which said "From Your Majesty".

After Li Ying found the letter, she hurried into the palace and handed the letter to Qin Xuechuan.After seeing the letter, Qin Xuechuan asked again: "Have you really searched all of the National Teacher's Mansion?"

Li Ying hurriedly replied after hearing this: "Your Majesty, this subordinate is incompetent. I have indeed searched the National Teacher's Mansion, but there is no trace of the National Teacher. Because this letter says that His Majesty personally Qi, so this subordinate hastily entered the palace to deliver this letter to you."

After Qin Xuechuan took the letter, he opened the envelope and found that it was written by Wu Lin himself.

The letter reads——

Your Majesty, since you don't trust me, I have long thought that one day, Your Majesty will kill me, and I dare not complain.It's just that I have been for Da Chu all my life, and I can't bear to see Da Chu's country being taken away by the Xiao family, so I can't just die before my wish is fulfilled.I know that there is an intricate tunnel underground in Fengdu, and I have put the map of this tunnel in this letter. When my long-cherished wish is fulfilled, I will definitely apologize with death!

After Qin Xuechuan saw this, he quickly took out the letter paper at the bottom. He looked at the letter paper and suddenly opened his eyes wide.There are red, black and black circles drawn on the letter paper. This was originally a map of Fengdu City, and there is a map of secret passages hidden under this map.

Qin Xuechuan saw a secret path passing by the former Jubao Hall... This secret path runs through the imperial palace, the East Palace, and the mansions of various officials in Fengdu, and this secret path is very complicated to repair. If there is no map, you will definitely be trapped to death inside.

At this moment, Qin Xuechuan discovered that there was a secret road leading from the National Teacher's Mansion to the outside of the city.

Qin Xuechuan had only ascended the throne not long ago, yet he actually forgot about it.As early as when Qin Yuan was alive, many spies from the enemy country had infiltrated it. Later, Qin Xuechuan paid attention to it, but he only remembered the secret road leading to the outside of the city from Jubao Hall, so he kept sending people there to guard it. Thinking that there is more than one exit in this complex tunnel.

At this moment, he remembered that Xiao Yu had brought him back to the East Palace in that tunnel, and Xiao Yu often appeared in his bedroom in the East Palace without a sound.Could it be... Xiao Yu is familiar with this authentic terrain?

When Qin Xuechuan thought of this, he shouted again: "Li Ying!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Ying walked in quickly: "What orders does Your Majesty have?"

Qin Xuechuan said to the surrounding palace people at this moment: "You all step back first."

As soon as the voice fell, everyone else retreated.Qin Xuechuan waved at Li Ying, Li Ying hurried to Qin Xuechuan after seeing it, Qin Xuechuan whispered at this moment: "You take those people who have followed me from the East Palace to investigate a matter, remember that this matter must be Keep it a secret, so no one will know about it."

After speaking, Qin Xuechuan handed the authentic map to Li Ying.

Li Ying immediately understood what was going on after taking the map, and he quickly replied: "Yes! This subordinate complies with the order!"

***

The investigation by the dead men sent by Qin Xuechuan proved that this map is indeed true.

Sure enough... there are countless secret passages in Fengdu City.Afterwards, Qin Xuechuan invited craftsmen to take a look. The craftsmen in the imperial city said that the secret passage had been built for a long time, at least 30 to [-] years.

This secret passage was almost built by Qin Yuan before or during his ascension to the throne.The matter has come to this point, Qin Xuechuan can't sit idly by, he immediately sent people to seal up the exits of the secret passages, leaving only a few exits.

Qin Xuechuan reckoned that if there were foreign enemies or spies entering Fengdu, they would definitely go through these entrances. In this way, he would be able to catch those people without any effort.

But before sealing those secret passages, Qin Xuechuan also considered the usefulness of the secret passages this time, and he set a key at each sealed exit.Only he has this key, and only the emperor can control this exit. He is the supreme person in Dachu, and he absolutely does not allow other people to have second thoughts.

***

Half a month after Wu Lin left, an urgent report came from the border - saying that the emperor of Yan Kingdom had provoked Da Chu on the grounds that the border was unclear, but in just a few months he attacked the two countries and persuaded other countries Attack the big Chu in the middle together.

After Qin Xuechuan heard the news, he asked all the courtiers, but the courtier could only tell his ideas about whether to fight or not.Qin Xuechuan said that there was a severe drought in Chu State this year, and the common people were living in dire straits. It would be inappropriate to go to war now.

Afterwards, someone proposed the idea of ​​negotiating peace. In fact, before the courtiers put forward these suggestions, Qin Xuechuan had already thought of this method, but he wanted to test whether these people in the court were really interested in political affairs.

But the facts have proved... half of the courtiers raised by Qin Yuan are idiots, eating the court's salary for free.Qin Xuechuan took this opportunity to lay off a lot of people in a fit of anger, and then he selected a few children from poor families who were enemies of the aristocratic family to replace those deposed courtiers.

In the end, it was Pei Jian who was next to him who suggested that the emperors of Chu and Yan could meet at the border between Yan and Qin, and then discuss the border issue. This would not only enhance the relationship between the two countries, but also discuss the demarcation of the border in detail.

But when he made this statement, all the ministers jumped out to oppose it as if they had discussed it.And the people who opposed were not only some courtiers, but also many generals who were speechless in this matter were also opposed.

And their reason is to worry about Qin Xuechuan's safety. Qin Xuechuan is the king of a country, and now he has neither concubine nor queen, and Da Chu has no heirs. If something happens, Da Chu will be in chaos without a heir.

Once someone tore open this opening, those people in the back seemed to be arguing with each other, and all civil and military officials quarreled around this topic.

They quarreled because of two things, one was because Qin Xuechuan refused to accept his concubine, and the other was because Qin Xuechuan had no children.Each of these hits the crux of ancient feudal thought.

Qin Xuechuan squinted his eyes slightly when he heard their quarrel, put one hand on his forehead and put on a headache.Anyway, what they say is useless, he has no idea of ​​establishing a concubine now.

Moreover, the aristocratic family's idea of ​​establishing a concubine was just to send their daughter to the harem to continue their family's glory, Qin Xuechuan would not agree to accept a new concubine just for this reason.

Another wave of courtiers quarreled even more outrageously. They accused Pei Jian of absurd idea!

If the emperor was allowed to go to the border peace talks, wouldn't that prove a compromise?So they are firmly against it.

But some people thought that the person who let Qin Xuechuan accept the concubine must have evil intentions and was cursing Qin Xuechuan.

What's even more outrageous is that...someone actually proposed to let the princess of Dachu go to marry in order to achieve peace on the border.

After Qin Xuechuan heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes. He naturally knew who the "princess" the courtiers were referring to was.

Qin Xuechuan ascended the throne first, and he has no heirs.So the princesses that the courtiers refer to are the heirs left by the late emperor, and the princesses left by Qin Yuan are either betrothed to others or have not yet reached the age of marriage, and there is only one princess who is of the right age to marry——Qin Yuan.

"No! Marriage is absolutely impossible!" He stood up immediately, with some anger on his face.

Seeing that Qin Xuechuan was angry, all the courtiers knelt down and said in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down!"

Qin Xuechuan was still angry at this moment, he said angrily: "Okay, don't quarrel for now, this matter will be discussed later, I am a little tired, I will retreat today."

After finishing speaking, he angrily walked to the screen behind Chaoyang and left in a flick of his sleeves.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

***

Things still developed in the direction that Qin Xuechuan was afraid of... No matter what, Qin Yuan must not be allowed to make love. If she was allowed to make love, wouldn't the development of the story be the same as the original book?

no!He will never allow this to happen.

Pei Xing heard that Qin Xuechuan was making a fuss in the hall today, so after Qin Xuechuan returned to the palace, he hurriedly begged to see Qin Xuechuan.

Pei Xing came to him at this time, there must be some clever plan, Qin Xuechuan summoned him immediately after hearing about it.

After Pei Xing saw him, he saluted first: "I see Your Majesty!"

Seeing this, Qin Xuechuan hurriedly stepped forward to help him up: "Why must you be so polite, sir? What is your plan for coming here this time?"

Pei Xing suddenly laughed when he heard this: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from His Majesty, and all the ministers know about His Majesty's anger in the court today."

Qin Xuechuan sighed after hearing what he said, and then said: "There is nothing I can do about it... After all, I only have that one younger sister, and you also know that among the sisters, only Yuan'er was able to tell me when she was young. Here are a few words, so I think of the brother and sister's love, and I can't bear her to marry far away."

After Pei Xing heard this, he frowned and looked at him: "But Your Majesty... Now that you are the emperor of a country, you can't only have the love of your children in your heart. The day you became emperor, you should know that you have already There are no siblings."

Qin Xuechuan's eyes widened in surprise after hearing what he said: "You...do you mean to ask me to marry my sister to the country of Yan?"

Seeing him like this, Pei Xing sighed again and shook his head: "Your Majesty... have you lost your sense of proportion? When you were in Longhu Mountain, you were almost injured because of Princess Yuan. She is just a princess. In front of Wanli Jiangshan, it is just a dispensable pawn, and His Majesty has the determination to unify the world, so there should be no such affair."

Qin Xuechuan took two steps back in shock after hearing his words...

He didn't know why he cared so much about Qin Yuan... Maybe he always thought that Qin Luochuan would become the emperor, so he tried his best to keep Qin Yuan, hoping that she could be used by him in the future, but after so many years of getting along, he found that Qin Yuan was a different person.

She is different from most of the princesses in Dachu. Instead of letting her get married, it is better to make her a general and let her fight in the battlefield.

Even though he knew that this kind of thinking was absurd in this era, but he still wanted to fulfill Qin Yuan, he didn't want Qin Yuan to end up like the original one.

Qin Xuechuan froze for a while, and finally said: "Is there really no other way?"

When he asked this question, Pei Xing suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and he suddenly smiled and looked at Qin Xuechuan: "Your Majesty... the matter of getting married was just proposed by the courtiers. And we don't know the details of Yan Kingdom now. Meaning, maybe Yan Guo doesn't want to get married, so it's meaningless to mention this matter now. I just wanted to test His Majesty's mind just now, but I didn't expect Bi Xia to be so soft-hearted."

Qin Xuechuan was slightly taken aback when he heard what he said, and a dry smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth: "You...what did you say? You were testing me just now?"

Pei Xing heard that Qin Xuechuan wanted to blame him, so he quickly knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me! This is also a helpless act. As an emperor, the region should let go of his due feelings. For example... Xiao Shizi... Your Majesty, you keep Prince Xiao in your palace. No matter how well you hide him, there is no impenetrable wall in this world. People outside will always hear rumors. These may be fatal to Your Majesty Therefore, I request Your Majesty to stay away from the son, or send him to a remote place like the late emperor."

After Qin Xuechuan heard his words, he suddenly sneered: "Huh... sir... what's the matter with you now? One or two are going to be dealt with by me. Could it be that this Xiao Yu is hindering anyone in the court?" ?”

Pei Xing saw that Qin Xuechuan became like this when he mentioned Xiao Yu, at this moment he said quickly: "Your Majesty...you have indeed lost your sense of proportion, and compared to your position as emperor, Xiao Yu is more important How heavy is it?"

Qin Xuechuan froze again after hearing his words...

What does he mean by that?Could it be that he was asked to choose between Xiao Yu and the throne?

Qin Xuechuan was furious when he heard this, at this moment he suddenly yelled: "Presumptuous!"

"Your Majesty, are you going to abandon your country? When your Majesty invited your ministers to leave the mountain in Lushan, you swore that you would unify the world and make your ministers a counselor who will be famous forever. Did your Majesty even ignore the promise back then? "

Qin Xuechuan clenched his fists tightly at this moment, and he stared fiercely at Pei Xing: "But...why do you have to keep Xiao Yu away from Fengdu?
