Xu Ren and Xia Qingqing's plane slowly landed halfway up Yunding Mountain. Now there was only the howling mountain wind on Yunding Mountain, and a small thatched house in the mountain seemed to be shivering in the mountain wind.
In front of the thatched house, there are some farmlands where some vegetables are planted; a woman in a coarse cloth shirt is working diligently.
"Mom." Xia Qingqing stepped forward and helped the working woman up.
Who would have thought that the Queen of the Great Xia Kingdom, who was once so high and mighty, would now be self-reliant.
When the mother and daughter met, the former queen looked at the current Princess Anyang, and they were speechless for a moment.
Xia Qingqing held her mother's rough hand and said with bitterness and expectation: "Mom, let's go to Anyang, okay? We can come back here after Daxia is stable again."
The former queen Xiao Yu looked at Xia Qingqing, whose face was glowing with happiness, and smiled gently, "Mother is afraid of causing trouble for you."
Yes, Xiao Yu was once the queen of the Great Xia Kingdom. If she went to Anyang, it would not be a small matter. If this matter is not handled well, it will bring great trouble to Anyang.
Xia Qingqing was a little undecided, and at this time she could ask Xu Ren for help.
Xu Ren smiled and said, "Anyang advocates filial piety. Who dares to say anything when the princess takes her mother back?"
Yes, it was just to bring back "a mother", not a "queen". Xu Ren made it very clear, and Xiao Yu and Xia Qingqing, the mother and daughter, also understood it.
"Mom, please come with me." Xia Qingqing held her mother's hand, her eyes full of desire and pleading.
Xiao Yu looked at Xia Qingqing, and finally nodded slowly, without any pretentious refusal. In this divided and war-torn land, it was not safe to live here alone. Even though Xiao Yu himself was a Jindan-stage master, considering Xiao Yu's identity, Jindan-stage masters did not have much self-protection ability in this chaotic era.
Now, there are two best places for Xiao Yu to go: one is Anyang, the other is to go home, that is, to return to her father Xiao Liming. But from the perspective of a mother, going to Anyang is the best choice for Xiao Yu, at least Xia Qingqing did not participate in the hegemony and intrigue, and can accompany Xiao Yu; besides, Anyang also has the best environment now.
Seeing that the matter was resolved, Xu Ren said goodbye and went down the mountain to look for Fu Minghui. If Queen Xiao Yu could live here in peace, it was thanks to Fu Minghui's protection. Fu Minghui led his own tens of thousands of imperial guards to garrison here in the name of protecting the imperial mausoleum, and did not surrender to any party.
The first, second, and third princes had all tried to recruit Fu Minghui, but Fu Minghui had always firmly guarded the imperial mausoleum. Now, Xu Ren came to recruit him on behalf of Anyang. However, Xu Ren had several plans in his hands.
At this moment, Fu Minghui was sighing. The lives of tens of thousands of soldiers stationed in the imperial mausoleum were still very difficult. Now the area around Yunding Mountain belonged to the eldest prince. In order to force Fu Minghui to surrender, the eldest prince even ordered a blockade of the surrounding area, so that these tens of thousands of soldiers could only get food between the mountains.
Now that dozens of days have passed, the soldiers' lives have become increasingly difficult. Although they are all cultivators, no one likes to suffer; moreover, being short of food and clothing for a long time is not a solution, and the morale of the army has begun to weaken.
