Ling Ziqing's two-year-old birthday was still spent in Dulong Mountain. This time, Ling Chen was busy with the battle and didn't come, but sent Han Zhitao to bring a birthday present.
When Han Zhitao arrived, Qingyun was not in Dulong Mountain, she went to Qingcheng Continent.
This year's Ling Ziqing's birthday, because Ling Chen didn't come over, Qing Yun went to Dulong Mountain to invite Xin Da'er's son Xin Jingping.
"Prince, this is from your father." Han Zhitao handed the sword to Ling Ziqing. On Dulong Mountain, Qingyun kept asking everyone to call Ling Ziqing the young master, and only Han Zhitao called him the eldest prince.
Two-year-old Ling Ziqing held the dagger and pulled it out of its sheath at once. The silver blade gleamed coldly.
"Uncle, what kind of sword is this?" He asked childishly.
"Its name is Hanyue Sword. It is the sword your father used when he was young. He went back to the palace to find it. First Prince, do you want to go back to the Yuncheng Palace? There are many treasures there. swords, birds made of wood, countless horses..."
Ling Ziqing shook his head: "These are found in Dulong Mountain, and also in Qingcheng Continent."
Han Zhitao immediately asked: "Can you take uncle to Qingcheng Continent to have a look?"
"No." Ling Ziqing refused.
Han Zhitao had heard the name of Qingcheng Continent long ago, and Ling Chen ordered people to follow and explore for a long time, but he never found the final location.
Near noon, Qingyun and Mrs. Shui took Xin Zhiping back to the small wooden building.
Qingyun was stunned when he saw Han Zhitao: "Brother Han, the fighting has been so intense recently, why are you here again?"
Han Zhitao said: "No matter how tight the war is, the First Prince's birthday will still be celebrated."
Han Zhitao looked at Xin Jingping: "Who is this young master?"
"My nephew." Qing Yun said.
Seeing Han Zhitao's puzzled eyes, Qingyun smiled and said, "The son of my elder brother Xindal."
"Oh..." In my impression, Sindar has no heirs.
Sindal was the only king among these vassal states who did not surrender until his death, and also the only king who died in battle.
The accompanying servant sang the birthday gift from the emperor in time: "A set of four treasures in the study, a pair of jade ruyis, a pair of white jade chess pieces, ten BMWs, ten boxes of tribute tea, six boxes of gold, silver and jewelry..."
Qing Yun hadn't heard such a voice for a long time, she knelt down and thanked the emperor for his kindness.
"Since you're here, come up." Qingyun greeted Han Zhitao.
Han Zhitao happily followed Qingyun.
"Princess Huayan was trapped in Gaudi Kingdom by Jin Guangzhe. The emperor was afraid that Princess Huayan would suffer, so he left in a hurry. He didn't have time to come, so he sent me here." Han Zhitao said in a low voice.
"Hua Yan? Is she here again?" Qing Yun asked.
"Well, I said I won't leave this time." Han Zhitao secretly looked at Qingyun's face.
"Aren't you leaving?" Qingyun still had a smile on his face, "Who will Chaoyun Continent be handed over to in the future?"
Han Zhitao shook his head: "I don't know, Hua Shixiu's health has gotten better and better since he eradicated those two important officials. I heard that he has married a new concubine, and he is going to spread out..."
Qingyun: "...."
"The emperor went to Gaudi country?" Qingyun asked.
"Yes. But Princess Qingyun, don't worry, the emperor is only going to save Princess Huayan, he will have no one else in his heart, but Princess Huayan is after her closely, the emperor misses her kindness..."
Qingyun smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, the emperor is always loved."
Han Zhitao had been gone for less than ten days when news came that Ling Chen, the emperor of the Northern Wilderness Continent, wanted to marry Princess Huayan of the Chaoyun Continent.
Qingyun saw the news and looked out the window for a long time.
Xiao Jing said: "Princess, why don't we take the young master back to the Yuncheng Imperial Palace, since we have not been with the emperor all this time, we have given others a chance. The princess should think about the young master."
Qingyun looked at the colorful flowers and willows outside, and pinched a freshly picked grape and put it in his mouth: "No, I don't want to go back. I prefer the current life. If Qing'er lives here all the time, wouldn't it be good? Why must Want to go back to the palace?"
She tore up the note, sent Ling Ziqing back to Qingcheng Continent, and let Xiao Jing and the nanny take care of him.
Qing Yun took Xiang Tao and Xiao Wu, picked five thousand people from Tsing Yi Hall, and secretly went to the Western Zhou Continent.
Yesterday, Qingyun received news that Huo Jingyun had been besieged by Jin Guangzhe in Xuancheng for eight days.
Yuncheng Palace. night.
Ling Chen sat on Gu Huaxuan's chair, King Rui and Han Zhitao stood there on the left and right.
Ling Chen opened the rolled up note in his hand and looked at it. After reading it, he tightly squeezed the note into a ball.
"Brother Huang?" King Rui saw that Ling Chen's eyes were on fire, and knew something was wrong.
"Old Han, didn't you say that she was sad to hear the news of Huayan's arrival? Didn't you say that she would definitely return to Yuncheng?" Ling Chen asked Han Zhitao angrily.
Han Zhitao immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it's true. Princess Qingyun was indeed very angry at that time. Although she didn't say it clearly, I could tell that she was very angry..."
"Look where she went!" Ling Chen threw the note to Han Zhitao.
Han Zhitao picked up the note and carefully opened it. It turned out that Qingyun had gone to the Western Zhou Continent, and she was looking for Huo Jingyun!
Han Zhitao secretly laughed in his heart, these two people were more ruthless than the other.
Ling Chen had a sullen face: "You came up with such a bad idea, let me spread the news outside, saying that you want to marry Princess Huayan, you said that Qingyun will come back automatically like this! You, you..."
Seeing that Ling Chen was really angry, Han Zhitao hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I think that with Princess Qingyun's previous temperament, she will definitely come back immediately. Who knew that she went to the Western Zhou Dynasty! This woman is simply..."
"You're presumptuous!" Ling Chen gave Han Zhitao a hard look, and Han Zhitao immediately shut up, lying on the ground and not daring to move.
"Your Majesty, Princess Qingyun is really different now, and I don't know what to do..." Han Zhitao's voice became lower and lower.
King Rui said: "Brother Huang, did she go to the Western Zhou Continent because of Huo Jingyun being trapped in Xuancheng?"
Ling Chen said: "No matter what the reason is, she shouldn't go to the Western Zhou Dynasty alone! King Rui, everything in the Northern Wilderness Continent is in your hands, Lao Han, call Zhang Yang and Yang Shuo, and bring the Wolves, we will also go to the Western Zhou Continent !"
"Ah!" Everyone was shocked.
Xuancheng is located on the west side of the Western Zhou Continent. It is an ancient small town with a population of only 300,000. To the north is Xuanshan Mountain, which is bare and full of strange-shaped rocks. Even in summer, there is seldom green.
In Xuancheng in August, the sun is hot at noon, and it is already cool in the morning and evening.
Liang Hongxiu has been hiding in this forest for a long time. The wind here is hard, her fair skin is cracked, her forehead and face are a little chapped, and her cheeks are red.
Huo Jingyun has been trapped in Xuancheng for ten days.
Ten days ago, he and Liang Hongxiu were going to attack Liaocheng in front of them. Unexpectedly, there was news that Jin Guangzhe had stolen Princess Qingyun from Tsingyi Hall and entered Xuancheng.
Huo Jingyun temporarily changed his strategy and asked Liang Hongxiu to lead a team of people to stand outside to respond, and he led the army to attack Xuancheng.
Unexpectedly, Xuancheng was breached in less than two days, and when the army entered the city, Huo Jingyun realized that it was almost an empty city.
Jin Guangzhe's people withdrew from the back door, and the rest of the city were dead soldiers or prisoners on death row, and they were desperately resisting. There were no real people, no food, no provisions, little living things, not even water.
Huo Jingyun wanted to lead his troops out after finding out that he had been tricked, but Jin Guangzhe had already led people to surround him three floors outside.
Crossbow arrows, catapults, fire, Jin Guangzhe used everything that could be used, and he personally commanded it.
Jin Guangzhe almost brought his main force to Xuancheng. He started looking for the location to besiege Huo Jingyun a month ago. There is an evil mountain behind Xuancheng, and there is no way out. He surrounded it on three sides, and there is no problem. Xuancheng is poor in resources, and it is not a pity to destroy it.
He sent people to transfer the people of Xuancheng, cut off the water source inside, transported away all the food and grass, released the death row prisoners in the prison, and put some dead men to lie in ambush inside.
In this way, Xuancheng almost became a dead city.
He wanted to kill Huo Jingyun here.
